Budget Resolutions

Proceeding contribution from Jesse Norman (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 2 November 2021. It occurred during Budget debate on Budget Resolutions.

Will the hon. Gentleman remind the House what the national debt as a percentage of GDP was in 1997 and then what it was when the financial crisis—to which Labour had allowed the country to become enormously overexposed through increased debt in the banking sector—had struck? I will tell him: it went from 46% to 84% while Labour was in government.
