Thank you. I'm grateful to you for taking an intervention. There is a difference, though, between zero-hours contracts, which put all the power into the hands of the employer, and flexible working contracts, where the power is more evenly balanced. I don't know if you've had family members who've been working on zero-hours contracts, but I have, and, as the TUC general secretary said, I've never met anybody working on a zero-hours contract who wanted that contract. They might want the flexibility but they didn't want the zero-hours contract where the power is with the employer.
