Text

On a point of order, Mr Deputy Speaker. I have done it, and every other Member who has spoken has done it. Timothy, this has to be a first: I am defending you. I am getting that on the record. Every Member mentioned 1922 to 1995. I appreciate that if you mention the amendment that brings it into new ground, but you can see how upset people are.

Therefore, on behalf of the people in the Public Gallery and ourselves, I ask that you bring the matter back to the Speaker. That is it.
