00:00Mr. Harrington.
00:01Hello, Miss...
00:02Baxter. Sadie Baxter.
00:03How can I help?
00:04I'm a full-time carer for my sister.
00:06The government has published proposals for its new independence credit scheme.
00:09We will put ability back into disability.
00:12Have you looked at what they're planning?
00:14I don't think we'd afford any outside care anymore.
00:15I want you to rest assured I will never vote for that bill.
00:18If this scheme goes ahead, I honestly think we're done for.
00:21I refuse to be beaten into submission by the cheap whip and this little black book.
00:25You're gonna help me stop that bill.
00:27There's nothing more I can do.
00:28I wouldn't be so sure.
00:30I'm putting together a job.
00:31Make it sound like a robbery?
00:32Well...
00:35You're kidding me.
00:37Who is the most powerful person in that building?
00:39The Prime Minister.
00:40More powerful than that?
00:41The cheap whip keeps a little black book filled with dirt
00:43should a member of the party's vote ever need to be swayed.
00:46It's my job to know where the bodies are buried.
00:48I literally know where there are bodies buried.
00:49You're quite dull by comparison.
00:51You want to steal blackmail material from the most powerful people in the land?
00:55In the right hands, that book could generate enough scandal to bring down the government.
00:59Exactly.
01:00But it's gonna take more than two women to walk in off the street and rob the Houses of Parliament.
01:04I never said it was just gonna be us.
01:06What's the take?
01:06Something big.
01:07Get in, get out, bring down the government. Simple.
01:10If our plan works, Parliament is prorogued.
01:12The bill falls at the final hurdle.
01:14You'll never get away with it.
01:16We might.
01:16They'll come after you.
01:17We always wear out for a fight.
01:19Stop Independence Friday!
01:23Any questions?
01:24Yeah.
01:25Jason?
01:26What's a whip?
