Political Parties and Elections Bill

I wonder whether the hon. Gentleman realises what an unedifying sight it is to see two Labour Members in marginal seats who, despite the vast expenditure given to them over the years by the taxpayer to spend in their areas, cannot bear the idea that candidates from Opposition parties should have relatively small amounts to be able to have any part-time help to put out any form of communication to the electorate. It is clear that Members on the Government Benches think that Labour, like some monster, should be able to roll on while those in Opposition should be able to spend and do nothing.
