00:00Tomorrow, of course, is St George's Day, a day to be proud of our country, but patriotism
00:08isn't just about respect for our shared symbols and sentiments, it's about serving the country
00:14that we love, and that's really important to us around this table as we put in the hard yards of
00:20the last four years, as we go into the weeks and the months ahead, because service is the mission
00:27of our Change Labour Party. That brighter future has to be nurtured and invested in,
00:34but I'm sure you share my frustration that too many talented people aren't now getting
00:40the opportunities that they need, that they deserve under this Tory government,
00:44to build a better future for themselves.
00:56Yes, it's been absolutely brilliant. You always look very calm though, you always play that calm to the team.
01:02Well, not like the last minutes in the US final I was not calm, like I was calm. No, of course sometimes it's intense, but...
01:11Main performance gym, bikes to keep the warming up going, some other, yeah, so you can do lunges and whatever.

01:28Yeah, they just did a good section.
01:32Have you been to tournaments together before, or is this for some of you the first time you're going out to a tournament?
01:36First major tournament, but I've been out to mini-tournaments.
01:40Yeah, I'm very excited.
01:42Yeah, I'm very excited.
