The Economy

Proceeding contribution from Therese Coffey (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 22 June 2011. It occurred during Opposition day on The Economy.
No, I have already given way a couple of times to Opposition Members. It is absolutely key to ensure that when one has already maxed out the credit card, one cannot not keep spending but has to stop and start paying it back. Staying with the nautical terms, I recognise that it is not going to be plain sailing ahead, but I can assure members of the British public that Conservative Members will be firmly on watch. We may need to tack and jibe to reach our final destination, but that destination is fiscal sanity, a growing economy, and a prosperous working Britain. That is why I will support the amendment to the motion.
