00:00I don't accept that argument that somehow our politics is dying out, but I do accept

00:08that it is now time for Social Democrats to confront directly some of the challenges

00:16and some of the lies, frankly, that have taken root in our societies.

00:21Because we don't just hear these stories about our politics.

00:25We also hear stories about our great countries, our communities, our cities that simply do

00:32not match the reality that we see around us.

00:37And it's very good to have you here in London.

00:40I hope you've enjoyed yourself here in our capital city, maybe gone out for breakfast

00:46this morning, popped into the pub for a pint last night, maybe enjoyed the last rays of

00:52sunshine in our beautiful parks, and if you have done any of those things or other brilliant

00:58things in London, you may have noticed that this city isn't the wasteland of anarchy that

01:06some would have you believe.
