Welfare Benefits Up-rating Bill

Proceeding contribution from Liam Byrne (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 January 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Welfare Benefits Up-rating Bill.

I would contrast that money with the £3 billion a year that the Chancellor is giving away to Britain’s richest citizens, in a tax cut that will kick in next year, at a time when the Government are cutting tax credits and when Britain’s working families are under pressure. How can the hon. Gentleman possibly justify that, either here or to his constituents?
