00:00 Yeah, well, I mean, what's really unconventional about reform is that you're a company and
00:03 that you're the majority shareholder. So you're able to sort of do whatever you want effectively,
00:08 aren't you? I mean, you can decide policy, you can decide if you're the leader or not,
00:12 you can decide who the candidates are. You're sort of a one man sort of internal dictatorship.
00:19 That's how things start in life. And we're a very, very new organisation. And that will
00:23 grow and expand and democratise over time. You have my word on that.
00:27 So you're going to stop being a company, are you, and become a normal political party?
00:31 When will you do that?
00:32 Oh, I don't know about that.
00:33 Oh, you're going to stay as a company?
00:34 I don't know about that. You know, it was set up. Does it really matter?
00:38 Well, it does in that there's no sort of internal party democracy to sort of create policy or
00:43 leadership. You know, you can't be removed, can you, as leader?
00:48 Yeah, yeah. Of course, actually, under our constitution, I can. So you're wrong about
00:53 that. I can. Look, we're a brand new organisation, because if two thirds of the members said
00:58 I had to go, I'd have to go.
