It is about the question of whether there should be water charges. I hear Deputy Coppinger saying "exactly". We have a clear division and a clear distinction between how people approach the matter.

Deputy Higgins referred to snake oil salesmen yesterday. It is a little like getting his retaliation in before the accusation is made against him, because the real snake oil salesmen are sitting opposite, in my respectful opinion, particularly Deputies Higgins, Coppinger and Murphy. They seem to believe that we can have water for free without having any position on how it is to be funded.
