I am interested in the hon. Gentleman's point about the Council of Ireland. The sons of some people in my constituency are soldiers in Northern Ireland and I am concerned about people being killed, soldiers or anybody else. Is the hon. Gentleman saying that he is against this wall because it is ineffective, or because it is an attempt to stop people from crossing the border with bombs and guns? Is he in favour of those who shoot and kill? I wonder whether he can tell us that.
