14 years since the last Labour government, it's a long time in opposition.
00:05
Has this Labour government been a disappointment?
00:13
I think some of us all kind of already knew that there were some problems
00:18
in terms of how the lack of a plan and an ideology behind it,
00:25
a lack of a strategy, I think, was something some of us were worried about.
00:29
But they won a massive majority, a massive mandate, and you have to give people a chance.
00:34
And I think we're at the point now where people can see that this isn't
00:37
what we expected and isn't what a lot of the public expected, a lot of the MPs expected.
00:42
In that sense, it is a disappointment.
00:45
The question now is, do we have the strength and the ability to change tack
00:51
and do something with four years ahead of us where we can bring the British public with us?
