Deputy Presiding Officer, I will give Rhun ap Iorwerth and Siân Gwenllian an opportunity to respond to me, because I think there was a proposal to redistribute wealth within Wales, solely within Wales. There was talk about how there are no differences between the north and the south, but significant differences between the east and the west, and so we need to disseminate the wealth of the east to the west. I would argue that, actually—. I am going to sound more of a nationalist than our friends and colleagues. I would argue that, actually, if there's going to be any redistribution, any dissemination of wealth, it has to be from the south-east of England to Wales, because if we are to grow wealth in the aggregate, then we have to have the dissemination of wealth away from the part of the UK that is currently by far the wealthiest.
Ultimately, I wish to provide—[Interruption.] Of course.
