Daylight Saving Bill

I am speaking to amendment 17, Mr Deputy Speaker. I think it important to set the context of the amendment, and that is what I am doing. Claims are made on one side and claims are made on the other, but I am a reasonable, generous and conciliatory man—[Hon. Members: ““Hear, hear.””] I thank my colleagues for that. I am prepared to inconvenience myself and give a little. I do not have an ““all or nothing”” mindset, and I have warned the Lighter Later supporters from the outset that if they take an ““all or nothing”” approach, they are likely to end up getting nothing. The olive branch is still extended.
