Proceeding contribution from David Mowat (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 February 2012. It occurred during Opposition day on Banking (Responsibility and Reform).


Banking (Responsibility and Reform)

I am a little bit puzzled by the hon. Gentleman's argument and that of the Labour Front Benchers on bankers' bonuses and salaries. Are they against bankers' salaries only, or all very high salaries? He mentioned Stephen Hester, but Carlos Tevez earns five times as much. Why is the Labour party not honest enough to say that it wants higher taxes instead of just focusing on bankers?
