The member will resume his seat. The reason I have chosen to deal with this matter today—and it is an exception that proves the rule—is very simply that members must understand that if someone in the chair—and some of you would do well to listen—asks somebody to withdraw then they are obliged to comply with the ruling of the chair otherwise they are engaging in a reflection on the chair. From that I went on to make a further statement. That will be the end of the matter.
