I must admit that the d’Hondt system is enough to confuse anybody; I am not necessarily supporting a system. However, surely the right hon. Gentleman would not expect me to rely on prompted questions to his constituents or people in Wales.

Friends who represent Wales have not received enormous postbags containing concerns about this issue, so we would very much like to see his evidence.
