00:00I was shocked and amazed when I read some of the quotes that have been revealed overnight.
00:04It is unacceptable and I think people can take from how we've acted our seriousness
00:11in terms of upholding the highest standards in public office.
00:14The Prime Minister has been very clear this is going to be a government in service of
00:17working people.
00:18We are going to maintain those high standards.
00:20He's acted decisively overnight to dismiss Mr Gwynne from his ministerial office.
00:24The Labour Party concurrently has also suspended him and removed the whip from him.
00:28So that's a mark of the seriousness with which you take it.
00:30It is completely unacceptable to make any comments of that kind.
