Resume your seat. If we're going to go down that path with commentary in using points of order just to get TV grabs, we're not going to allow it. You simply get up and ask the point of order. We're not having a period with extra comments.

That wasn't part of the question, and the manager knows that. I will revert back to what we started to do. I won't take points of order if they're going to be abused in such an egregious way. There just won't be points of order, and we can go through the examples of where the Speakers have done that. I don't wish to do that, but that is where this is heading if those spurious points of order continue.
