"Lord Tebbit, the Conservative former cabinet minister, paid tribute to him during a question on tax avoidance.
He asked if the minister was "aware that a very good precedent has been set on the avoidance of tax by the immediate past prime minister, Mr Brown".
Lord Tebbit continued: "He does not pay tax on the earnings that spring from the things he does as a former prime minister because he gives all those earnings to charity."
