The Economy

Proceeding contribution from Sheila Gilmore (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 December 2011. It occurred during Debate on The Economy.
It has more force in economic theory. That was precisely the point that was made during the 1930s and subsequently by Keynes. It was said that the time one should be borrowing is during a recession. We should borrow to build houses, create construction jobs and to keep people in work and not, as this Government are doing, to keep people out of work.
