Is it up? I apologise. This is an important area. We are committed to achieving our 2030 targets. We believe fundamentally that this will require bringing people with us.

With the greatest of respect to Amazon and Google, which have their own businesses to conduct, how do we compare our treatment of them with that of the old age pensioner who gets up in the middle of the night to do the washing in order to save a few euros? That is how we will be measuring progress.
