00:00The new Labour government has won the opportunity to change our country and we'll work with them to do that.
00:06We'll collaborate with them and with other parties where we agree.
00:10So where they're heading in the right direction on lifting the onshore wind ban or re-nationalising the railways, we will support them.
00:18That's the kind of politics we promised voters throughout the campaign, but we promised more than that too.
00:24We promised to hold the new government to account where we think they're off track,
00:28where they could and should be doing more, where we think greater ambition is needed
00:34to deliver the positive, inspiring change that people urgently want to see.
00:39Because in so many areas, ones that matter deeply to so many of us, Labour is getting it wrong.
00:46Like denying winter fuel payments to millions of pensioners,
00:50giving the green light to new climate-destroying airport expansion
00:54and to sticking with the cruelty of the two-child benefit cap.
