I agree with the hon. Gentleman. There is so much that we in this House and those in the Government—if they are minded to do so—can do to alleviate the burden on business. It is hard to run a business at the best of times, and it is even harder when the Government seek to be a headwind, rather than a tailwind.

I have so many wonderful contributions to take from my colleagues. I am sure that the hon. Gentleman will have his chance later.
