Madam Deputy Speaker: Order. May I remind all hon. Members—[Interruption.] Order. May I remind all hon. Members that good temper and moderation are the hallmarks of language in the Chamber?
Mr. Galloway: On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker—
Madam Deputy Speaker:

Mr. Galloway: Further to that point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. Twice this evening, first from the hon. Member for Hemel Hempstead (Mike Penning) and now from the Minister, you have permitted personal attacks on me that go beyond the norm in parliamentary discourse, as I think the Clerk will advise you. If I may say so, you ought to have intervened to deal with the point made by the hon. Member for Hemel Hempstead, and you ought not to allow—
Madam Deputy Speaker:
Order. The hon. Gentleman is challenging my keeping of order in the Chamber. I would ask him and all other hon. Members to think very carefully about their words on this particular day. When I heard anything inappropriate, I did intervene and try to prevent it happening.
