My hon. Friend has given me a wholly new argument to deploy, and I will do so in future.

The Government’s advisers, Goldman Sachs, made more than £12 million profit from the sale of Royal Mail shares —a gross conflict of interest by any standards. Will the Secretary of State rule out completely the payment of any bonuses to those advisers, and put the money back into the public purse?
Vince Cable
No bonuses have been paid and there is no pressure on the Government to make a decision on that at the moment.
