§ Mr. Robert Parry (Liverpool, Scotland Exchange)On a point of order, Mr. Speaker. Yesterday the Secretary of State for Employment, in reply to questions, evaded any possible action to save 1,000 jobs at Kraft Foods at Kirkby, but instead made a vicious and unwarranted attack on the Ford workers at Halewood. He called them strikers, although the men have been back at work for a week and one of his agencies, ACAS, is trying to resolve the recent dispute. Perhaps on reflection the right hon. Gentleman will withdraw his jibe, because if he cannot support conciliation it would be better for everyone if he were to resign.
§ Mr. SpeakerI have allowed the hon. Gentleman to make his point, but he must realise that it is not a point of order on which I can rule.
