I did not agree. It is open to me to reserve my position until we are in public session and I can air it in a fully transparent way. I do not agree with anything that has gone on here or with the way in which the one motion we had down today was withdrawn in favour of a completely different motion. I believe that I am entitled to oppose the taking of this vote, though I am open to correction on the procedure here. I believe I am also entitled to propose an amendment. Further to that, should my amendment not succeed, I believe I am then entitled to oppose the vote. I will accept the ruling of the Chairman, of course.
