As I said yesterday I greatly regret this cut. I would have hoped there were fairer ways of achieving these savings. I proposed a number of ways this might have happened. It is very difficult to sit here on this side of the House and to hear Members on the other side, particularly those who were in the previous Government, talk about unfairness. Was it fair that ¤5 was taken off the blind pension?
