Mr McLoughlin
I am grateful to my hon. Friend for that question. I can confirm that the Prime Minister announced a cap of RPI plus 1 for not only this year, but next year and the year after.
Mr David Anderson (Blaydon) (Lab)
In this House, we have become used to the Government’s incompetence. They could not privatise the forests properly and they made a mess of the NHS; with this, they have shown that they cannot even privatise what is already out there. The job is too big for them. Why do they not just give up—and give up now?
Mr McLoughlin
I am not sure, Mr Speaker, whether that was a question or a statement.
