Council Tax (New Valuation Lists for England) Bill

: I agree with the right hon. Gentleman that it is acceptable for a Back Bencher to be detached from the minutiae of the matter under discussion. Is he surprised to learn that just a moment or two ago, the hon. Member for Mole Valley (Sir Paul Beresford), a former leader of Wandsworth borough council, ““corrected”” my geography by saying that Wandsworth and Westminster are not adjacent. They are adjacent, as the House of Commons Library has just demonstrated for me. Nine Elms faces Pimlico across the river. I wanted to put that correction of the hon. Gentleman’s false correction on the record.
