00:00I've got to tell you, the last few weeks have been really exciting.
00:04It was a very tough phone call on the 23rd of December when I said to the young team
00:10in our London office, I'm really sorry, guys, but I think Christmas is cancelled.
00:17And they rose to the challenge.
00:19They were in the office till 10 o'clock on Christmas Day night, getting graphics, getting
00:24videos ready, because I just knew that over the Christmas Day and Boxing Day period, people
00:31would be sitting around the table, lunch or dinner, with family, with friends, down the
00:38pub, wherever they went, and reform would be a topic of conversation.
00:43I was confident that we would, on Boxing Day, go through the number of ballot papers that
00:52the Conservative Party sent out in their leadership election last year, and we did
00:57it on Boxing Day, and we've gone on 35,000 members more since Boxing Day alone.
