00:00Again, I'm not all supposed to be at the Brexit thing because ever since this happened, nothing's good come of it.

00:05So, I don't know, it's all a bit doom and gloom for it, the idea, I don't know.

00:10But, yeah, Brexit is, I've not seen many positives from it, but if this will work and it's a bit stricter,

00:18it is going to put people off, but I get where they're coming from.

00:22I think it's going to be a difficult thing for some people.

00:23There's a lot of people that don't even like having the pictures taken in general.

00:26I think myself, I don't like taking my pictures, but if I have to, I have to.

00:31I know. I mean, I don't even like my passport for us.

00:35They have been doing it for a long time.

00:37America, you know, as soon as you go into America, you can't go anywhere until you have your fingerprinted, obviously.

00:42I think it's a good thing. I really do, because I, me, with my suspicious mind, I think it'll pick up anyone that's wanted as well.

00:49I don't expect that. I feel like that's quite intrusive on people's personal space.

00:53I can't be taking my fingerprints just because I want to go to a new country. That's bang out of order, bro.
