Proceeding contribution from Jacob Rees-Mogg (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 17 October 2019. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

I read about that case in the newspapers and am as shocked by it as the hon. Gentleman. It is not how taxpayers’ money ought to be used. It has now been raised in the House. It has a political profile. Our job in this House is to seek redress of grievance. This is a serious grievance for the ratepayers of Caerphilly, who will want to understand why money has been spent so poorly. We in this House make the laws that lead to these types of payment being made, so we must look at the laws that we make.
