No, I am not going to take any more interventions; the hon. Gentleman can sit down.

We should be seeing the investment from the bank bonus tax and a temporary cut in VAT. The Bill—[Interruption.]

[Mr Deputy Speaker (Mr Nigel Evans)]

Order. Please—I cannot hear Mr Esterson speak.

Finance Bill

Debate between Bill Esterson and Nigel Evans

Thursday 15th July 2010 Commons Chamber

[Bill Esterson]

The right hon. Gentleman mentioned the record of the last Labour Government on pensions, but what about the record of the previous Conservative Government when it came to the mis-selling of pensions? I trust he would accept that that was a serious problem.

[The First Deputy Chairman]

Order. That is much wider than the amendment.
