Proceeding contribution from George Howarth (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 8 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on Local Government Finance.


Local Government Finance

My right hon. Friend mentioned Knowsley a moment ago when he was comparing figures. Does he agree that when we look at the acute levels of deprivation across the spectrum that we experience in Knowsley, those figures are even worse, because some of the poorest communities in the country are being punished severely in comparison with some of the better-off communities which are getting off almost scot-free?
