Finance Bill

Proceeding contribution from Ian Blackford (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 21 July 2015. It occurred during Debate on bills on Finance Bill.

I am pleased that the hon. Lady mentioned Labour’s opposition to the impact of the tax credits, but there is concern on the SNP Benches and elsewhere in the country—this goes to the heart of the matter—that people who will be affected by the Budget and what is happening in this Finance Bill need leadership. It is that failure to give leadership—to oppose, as the Opposition party in this House—and to stand up for people who are affected by these measures on which the Labour Opposition will be judged.
