On the first point, I am not somebody who goes around suing the media at all. It is not the way I operate. I know that lots of people do so and that some people in this House have done so, but it has not generally been my modus operandi. What I seek usually is a right of reply. If one does not get a right of a reply, then there is the option of going to the Office of the Press Ombudsman. There are many options other than tying oneself up in the High Court for three years at considerable cost. It is not something that I would do extremely lightly.
