9. Mr. Robertsasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what representations he has received during the last six months from taxpayers urging a reduction in Government spending.
§ Mr. H. MacmillanI can only say that I have received a large number of such representations, and that I have every reason to hope that a high proportion of my correspondents pay taxes.
Mr. RobertsDoes not the right hon. Gentleman agree that some of the people who are pressing the Chancellor for these changes are those who shouted from the rooftops for the Government to sweep away controls, and are now dissipating their energies or money abroad or sailing in yachts?
§ Mr. MacmillanThe hon. Gentleman has made his point. I do not suppose he would expect me to add anything.
