The hon. Gentleman is right. The problem is that whenever we say that we want something to be changed and we know that that is the right thing to do, a reason is given for it not to be done which makes many of those who have supported the measure in question change their minds and decide not to vote for it. They can all examine their consciences, and it is perfectly right for them to do so.
