As always, I am listening to the hon. Gentleman’s speech with great interest. He posits the scenario of market failure. I cannot resist the conclusion that, in so doing, he is hearing voices against which he is arguing, but those voices are not ours on the Conservative Benches. Put simply, does he accept that, in addition to market failure—I do not disagree with him about that—there is such a thing as Government failure and that that is more likely to manifest itself in circumstances of monopoly?
