00:00We're absolutely fighting for every single last vote. Sometimes the opinion polling is put to me
00:06and I answer, I think, not unreasonably, well if that were true it would represent a super majority
00:12and that would be very dangerous for Britain because it would mean that Keir Starmer has
00:17unchecked power, a blank check if you like, to raise taxes on your home, on your job,
00:23on your car, on your pensions and I think it's absolutely right to warn of the consequences
00:28of that sort of blank check. I find it extraordinary that the Labour Party that
00:33literally left government the last time with a note saying I'm sorry there's no money left
00:40and now trying to claim that they would be better for the economy. It isn't credible,
00:44it doesn't wash, everyone knows they'll leave more people unemployed, they'll tax your home,
00:48your job, your car, your pension. Don't risk Starmer government and especially not a Starmer
00:54government with a super majority.
