00:00I hope that this will be now an exciting time for politics in Wales. I've been absolutely heartened by the number of young people who've been involved in this campaign, a lot of them are standing to my right here, but across the entire constituency, people not interested in politics have been, I've had selfies taken before, I've never had this.
00:22Listen now Cardiff and listen Westminster, this is Carfilly and Wales telling you we want a better deal for every corner of Wales.
00:32The big parties need to sit up and take notice. Wales, we are at the dawn of new leadership, we are at the dawn of a new beginning and I look forward to playing my part for new Wales and in particular for the people of the Carfilly constituency, I thank you with all of my heart.
00:56I, this is better than winning, scoring the winning try for Wales against New Zealand in the Rugby World Cup. This means everything to me and the people of Carfilly constituency, you mean everything to me and I promise you I will serve you all to the very best of my ability.
