00:00I think that there is a clear front-runner for stopping reform in its
00:04tracks and that would be Andy Burnham that's what the polls suggest and that's
00:08somebody that's been away from Westminster politics gone away and
00:10thought about the challenges that this country is facing and also how to
00:14connect with the general public and I think that that's what we need right now
00:17the things that Labour have been doing are fantastic around employment rights
00:21about renters rights and about some of the work around lifting thousands of
00:25children out of poverty this is brilliant it's transformational but we've
00:29not been able to get that story across so we need somebody with a human touch
00:32somebody that can really get the mood of a country and to be able to communicate
00:36that and communicate it well
