European Communities (Finance) Bill

I am grateful to my comrade the Minister for giving way, because it allows us to have a decent debate. On intellectual coherence, does he agree that it is entirely intellectually coherent to be in favour of expansion and of paying the additional moneys associated with it, while not being in favour of a budget that includes the obscene amounts of money spent on the common agricultural policy, not being in favour of the way in which the structural fund is handled, and being in favour of a number of other changes? It is not fair or reasonable to suggest that someone who is in favour of enlargement automatically must be in favour of everything in the budget. It is possible to take another point of view.
