00:00Well after the cash for pants scandal over the summer, freebie tickets to pop concerts
00:06and now we see over this week the first resignation of a cabinet minister because of a fraud conviction
00:14I'm afraid I genuinely worry that they are doing everything they can it feels like to undermine
00:19public trust. What we want as Conservatives is to see a constructive conversation about how we can
00:25grow the economy we are very focused on that. Sadly the budget of Broken Promises by Rachel
00:30Reeves is already having a terrible impact on businesses and they will be discussing
00:35over the next month or so what they can do to meet those tax hikes that she's placed on businesses
00:42but we also want to have a conversation about farming because we believe fundamentally in
00:46our countryside and in our rural communities and this is why this week we are asking Labour
00:51MPs to join us in voting to axe the family farm tax.
