Proceeding contribution from Baroness Burt of Solihull (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 16 April 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance (No. 4) Bill.
Finance (No. 4) Bill
The hon. Gentleman talks about the 50p tax rate, which his party's Government introduced. I cannot remember how many days before the general election at which the coalition Government came into office that that happened—was it 48 days? May I invite him to speculate as to why the former Prime Minister had 13 years in government but brought in the 50p tax rate only such a short time before his Government left office?
