00:00I've always believed in the power of government, and I've seen it at its best.
00:07I'll give you one example from last year in the summer, when we had those terrible riots.
00:12Because what we saw then in response was dynamic, it was strong, it was urgent.
00:19It was what I call active government, on the pitch, doing what was needed, acting.
00:27But for many of us, I think, the feeling is we don't really have that everywhere all of the time at the moment.
00:35Do you see good value everywhere?
00:39Because I don't.
00:42I actually think it's weaker than it's ever been.
00:45Overstretched, unfocused, trying to do too much, doing it badly, unable to deliver the security that people need.
