Proceeding contribution from Lord Jackson of Peterborough (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 13 November 2007. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Health and Education Debate on the Address.
Health and Education
Does my hon. Friend agree that after 15 years of economic growth and 10 years of this Government, it is a badge of shame for the Government that they have managed to embed welfare dependency, given that 5.4 million people in this country are economically inactive and we are in a position of having to recruit people from across Europe and the rest of the world to do jobs that should be done by many of those 5.4 million people?
