00:00Do you have any reaction, Prime Minister, to a post by Elon Musk this morning,
00:04suggesting that America should liberate Britain from a tyrannical government?
00:09Well, let me deal with the health crunch because it's really important. Look, in relation to that,
00:16I don't really have any comments on the particular comment that was made this morning by Musk. Thank
00:22you. And on Elon Musk, I do need to ask you this. He called your safeguarding minister, Jess Phillips,
00:29an evil witch, a rape genocide apologist who should be put in jail. Does that sort of abuse
00:37of a minister make you feel angry? And what is your response to that? Thank you.
00:42On the question of Elon Musk, look, I think most people are more interested in what's going to
00:48happen to the NHS, frankly, than what's happening on Twitter. But you asked me a really important
00:54question that's been in the news for the last few days. And I am going to, with permission,
01:00just answer it quite fully because it is a really important set of issues. But let me start with
01:08this. Child sexual exploitation is utterly sickening, utterly sickening.
