Localism Bill

Proceeding contribution from Christopher Pincher (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 17 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills on Localism Bill.
I am obliged to the right hon. Lady for giving way; we are obviously getting on better now. She talks about democracy. Can she explain how democratic it was, over 13 years of a Labour Government, to increase the amount of ring-fencing from 4% to 15% of local government spend? Was not that simply a case of Labour saying that Brown knew best?
