Exactly right, and surprising coming from the benches that you sit on, but I applaud that viewpoint, David, and also applaud your elegant disposition, as I said before, as regards the vital importance of citizen participation. This is what this is about. There is a petition there, there are petitioners here, and this is about the importance of citizen participation in democracy. If that means anything, if a petition means anything, surely Labour have a chance to stand up for their oft-used slogan of 'Standing up for the people of Wales'. Well, here's your chance: refuse to sell the land. Stop any prison development in Port Talbot. Diolch yn fawr.
