00:00Well, obviously, you're referring to the news stories about a couple of people being investigated
00:05for allegedly for gambling.
00:07There's an investigation going on, and I don't want to prejudice that in any way, but clearly,
00:11if anyone's broken the rules, they should be thrown out of the party.
00:14The law is very clear about about gambling with insider knowledge, but I have no knowledge
00:19of this myself.
00:20I can assure you, because I've been asked, have I gambled on anything?
00:23No, I haven't.
00:24I haven't done for years, in fact, and certainly not over this election.
00:28And, you know, I'm very disappointed.
