00:00and the national movement has to remember that and get back to it and I say let's do

00:05three things, let's get an arrangement to focus on the elections of 2026, let's secure

00:13that independence mandate by a majority of the votes and a majority of the seats in our

00:17parliament and then let's implement that mandate, no ifs, no buts, let's implement it by domestic

00:22and international mobilisation, that's how we get to independence.

00:27Thank you very much indeed Alex, that brings us to the end of all of these questions and

00:30thank you to all of you who attended on the night and wrote all of these questions down

00:34for us and we hope you get the chance to hear the answers in this week's show.

00:40And with that we come to the end of the show, sadly Alex.

00:43Well I mean I think it's quite disgraceful, I've had to do all the work, all these people

00:47got invited along to the IMAX theatre, they got the big applause, took the bows and all

00:51the rest of it and they hardly answered any questions at all, I had to answer them all,

00:56quite, I want more money.

00:59And with that we say goodbye to all of you and thank you very much indeed for watching

01:03and it's an opportunity from both of us to thank all of those who participated in the

01:09show at the IMAX cinema, a hugely enjoyable event, in fact many people left feeling enthused

01:15by the whole thing which is very very important indeed because we have to carry hope into

01:19the future.

01:20And I think all of us, since I am getting more than a Ward in Edgeways in this programme,

01:25should be asking Tasmina if she'll produce and direct another show in the near future

01:30because I think everybody who came and everybody hopefully who's watched the show has found

01:35it an invigorating and mobilising experience.

01:38What is it they say in show business?

01:40Watch the space.

01:41Thank you all for watching and we hope to see you again next week, same time, same place,

01:46different subject.

01:47Until then, take care from all of us here.
