Capital Gains Tax (Rates)

Debate between Baroness Burt of Solihull and Lord McCrea of Magherafelt and Cookstown

Monday 28th June 2010 Commons Chamber

[Lorely Burt]

The hon. Gentleman makes a fair point. Indeed, the Liberal Democrats supported some of the steps that the Labour Government took, but that does not allow Labour Members to wash their hands completely of this country’s financial state.

[Dr William McCrea (South Antrim) (DUP)]

But can the hon. Lady and her colleagues wash their hands of the fact that although they opposed a rise in VAT during the election, they will now go through the Lobby to support it? Surely that is hypocrisy.
