00:00I have not given up hope that we will be able to get a deal with resident doctors.
00:07We have gone as a government as far as we can.
00:10What I'm asking the BMA to accept is that while I don't pretend that we've solved all of their problems
00:17in less than two years of a Labour government,
00:20the BMA need to stop pretending that we could have solved all of those problems
00:25to recognise that resident doctors are important,
00:28but they're not the only staff working in the NHS,
00:30and to recognise that while the NHS is, as far as I'm concerned,
00:34the most important public service, again, it's not the only public service that requires investment.
