Proceeding contribution from Steve Brine (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 listening carefully to my hon. Friend's speech. Further to her discussion with the shadow Business Secretary, there are new entrants to the high street lending market, which I think, without name-checking them and giving them the publicity, will shake up the ““Computer says no”” culture. [Hon. Members: ““Name them.””] Virgin Money is coming on to the high street, and it will shake up that culture. Sometimes we are in danger of talking about just the traditional high street banks and lenders, when there are new entrants coming into the market that will really shake things up and change things.
