00:00The incident with the Sky Journalist was a trivial sort of sideline. We've had some very

00:06constructive meetings at Cobra. It's really helpful that government's looking to bring

00:11all the arms of government behind supporting us and that's very welcome to Chiefs. Meanwhile,

00:17we're facing a very big challenge. There's no shirking from that. But I'm, as you heard

00:27across the country as Chiefs are equally proud of their men and women. These are men

00:32and women who are prepared to stand in the middle of violence and confront it in a situation

00:36that 99% of the population would run a million miles from. They're prepared to do that to

00:41protect the peace and keep people safe and that deserves our admiration.
