Mr President, quite simply, extremely objectively and in order to get out of this row between old accomplices – which is more like a mafia row than a parliamentary one – I would, with respect, like to hope that, faced with this situation and this debate, the President of Parliament might wish to honour us with his Presidency in this House. I believe that this does not in any way detract from your well-known, excellent ability to preside, Mr Martin, but I think that President Cox could come himself, with his authority – and I would also say with his clarity – and preside over this sitting.
