Commons ChamberI am conscious that you may start to get slightly irritated with me, Madam Deputy Speaker —
On a point of clarification, the right hon. Gentleman is doing just fine on timing. I appreciate that he has taken a lot of interventions, and people who intervene know that, later in the debate, their speeches will be shorter as a result of their interventions. He is doing nothing wrong, and he may proceed.
I am relieved. I sensed that I might be getting into trouble. I will give way to the hon. Gentleman.
