00:00I sat on the opposition benches and took many a lecture from the Tories,
00:06telling the world what working people do or don't want. And you know that every single one of them
00:13was delivered without the common decency of coming here and showing some respect to the people who
00:20fight for the living standards of working people every single day. And that era is now over,
00:25Congress. The light of a fairer Britain, a more prosperous, secure and dynamic country
00:36is at the end of the tunnel. That doesn't mean that it's easy to get there. The Tories knew
00:44it would be like this. That's why they called the election early. And we saw, as I'm sure you all
00:53did, just how ruthlessly they were prepared to salt the earth of Britain's future, serving
01:00themselves to the bitter end. Throughout this government, no matter the storm, the service of
01:08working people will be our anchor, our still point in a turning world. The people we hold in our
01:17mind's eye as we face up to the daunting challenge of our inheritance and secure our mission on
01:25growth.
