Business of the House

The Leader of the Opposition and his shadow Chancellor were both part of the Treasury team that decided to sell off the nation's gold. That decision, back then, in that economic time, has cost the country to date about £9 billion, the equivalent of 18p off a litre of fuel for an entire year. Given that, and given that the shadow Chancellor has called for a reversal of the VAT increase, may we have an early debate on fuel taxation?
