00:00 So the question, Carl Benjamin is not standing for election, Liz Truss is. It is for her
00:04 constituents to decide whether she's done a good job or not. It is not for you or me,
00:09 for that matter, to decide which shows she should be able to go on because the presenter may have
00:13 said something inappropriate before. We've had lots of scenarios of BBC presenters saying things
00:17 that are inappropriate. I don't know about this show. I don't know what he said. And I don't like
00:23 making comments on things like that that I don't know. I think it is trivial. It is unserious.
00:27 I am here talking about what we are doing to protect vulnerable women. What someone said on
00:31 a podcast, I don't even know who this person is, is immaterial to the policies that we're putting
00:36 forward for this election.
