Geneva Conventions and United Nations Personnel (Protocols) Bill [Lords]

When a right hon. Gentleman as eminent as my right hon. Friend the Member for East Yorkshire (Mr. Knight) tells this House that he has been—I think that this is the phrase—surfing the net and has discovered the use of the red crystal as a symbol for a combination of bordellos, fashion houses and rock stars, we, as responsible Members, have a duty to hear him and to consider that evidence. We should do that not just because of my right hon. Friend's sagacity but because of the evidence that he provided. If my hon. Friend the Member for Broxbourne chose to surf the net, he might find even more examples of the use of red and other crystals for all kinds of good and more nefarious purposes.
