I thought there was a general impression on the part of the Opposition, and the newspapers that support the Opposition, that there were certain serious economic and financial circumstances with which we are faced, and that they would be the last people who would deny to the Government any necessary powers to deal with them.—[An HON. MEMBER: "Sensible ones."]—I quite agree with the right hon. Gentleman that it would be well for the Opposition to study the Bill, and then we can examine it. If it is necessary in the interests of the country for the House to sit a bit longer, we must sit a bit longer.
