00:00One of your colleagues, Chris Parry, the mayoral candidate for Hampshire and for Solent,
00:04obviously he's been delayed now, he said that David Lammy should go back to the Caribbean,
00:10back home to the Caribbean. Do you support that language and do you support what he was
00:15trying to say?
00:17I'm not familiar with what was said. At the end of the day, David Lammy is a, he's a Cabinet
00:22Minister. Whether we think he's doing a good job or a bad job is just part of politics.
00:26That's day-to-day life. And he will, I'm sure, continue to claim he's doing a great job.
00:34We challenge him. And in our view, this government, a number of its Cabinet members, they've got
00:40no experience of business, no experience how to grow the economy, whether it's David Lammy
00:45or the Chancellor.
