I congratulate the hon. Gentleman on securing the debate. Does he think that the problems he has identified—cost and lack of responsiveness to local needs—would be better or worse if Royal Mail were privatised? I understand that his party's policy is to privatise Royal Mail and separate it from the post office network. Does he agree with that policy? If so, why does he think it would make things better?
