Mr Howard Flight (Arundel and South Downs, Conservative)
Yes, the Government have created an environment; the environment has led evil people to exploit it. With the greatest respect, I think that it is slightly pedantic not to accept that if Government policies—whoever is in power—lead to such things happening, the Government are responsible. My point is that that policy has led to the creation of such a mafia in this country.
