Hello. Tonight on 'Face the Press' we're going to examine two different views
of contemporary things. On my left is the Minister for Home Affairs who is
wearing a striking organza dress in pink tulle, with matching pearls and a
diamante collar necklace. The shoes are in brushed pigskin with gold clasps,
by Maxwell of Bond Street. The hair is by Roger, and the whole ensemble is
crowned by a spectacular display of Christmas orchids. And on my right - putting
the case against the Government - is a small patch of brown liquid which could
be creosote or some extract used in industrial varnishing. Good evening.
Minister, may I put the first question to you? In your plan, 'A Better Britain
For Us', you claimed that you would build 88,000 million, billion houses a year
in the Greater London area alone. In fact, you've built only three in the last
fifteen years. Are you a bit disappointed with this result?

Busy - huh! I got up at five o'clock, I made myself a cup of tea, I looked out
of the window. Well, by then I was so worn out I had to come and have a sit-down.
I've been here for seven hours.
