On a point of order, Mr Speaker. I am certain that you are well capable of doing your job, Mr Speaker. If you were not content with my tone during Question Time, you would have held me to account. Is it in order for the Whip of the party opposite to repeatedly tell a Member, in the middle of her question, to "calm down"? I have never heard the words "she" and "her" in the Chamber as much in the past 10 years as I have during this Question Time.
