Finance Bill

Proceeding contribution from Cathy Jamieson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 July 2012. It occurred during Debate on bills on Finance Bill.

The problem is that the Government are giving with one hand and taking away with another. According to the Institute for Fiscal Studies, many people will be £511 a year worse off. That may not seem a lot of money to one of the millionaires who will benefit from that £40,000, but it will make a big difference to a low-paid worker who is struggling to make ends meet and is feeling the pinch because of rising prices for food and other commodities.
