Proceeding contribution from David Gauke (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 March 2012. It occurred during Opposition day on Living Standards.
Living Standards
There is so much wrong with that that I do not know where to start. Perhaps I will begin by pointing out that, at the last general election, our interest rates were at more or less the same level as those of Italy and Spain, yet there is now an enormous difference between us. I am afraid that the hon. Gentleman is wrong.
