Finance Bill

Proceeding contribution from Clive Efford (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 28 November 2022. It occurred during Debate on bills on Finance Bill.

I absolutely agree with everything that the Minister just said, but the truth is that the money paid to people in furlough and to small businesses was passed on. That money was used to repay loans, to pay rent and to pay the lease. People have paid their mortgages. The people who received that money at the end of the day were those who were already wealthy, as the figures show. We should follow the money. We should not squeeze those people until the pips squeak, but we should make them pay their fair share.
