00:00Mr. Speaker, this King's speech is a strike against the status quo that has failed working people.
00:08It's a King's speech for the young people whose gifts lie in their hands,
00:13who work hard, want their talents to be recognised, and just want an opportunity in their community.
00:19A King's speech for the children who, under the party opposite, had to go to school without breakfast,
00:27hungry, cold and tired, when they should be focused on their learning.
00:31And, Mr. Speaker, it's a King's speech for the backbone of this country,
00:35for working people who worry about the cost of living, want their town centres to thrive,
00:40their public services to work, their government to be on their side.
00:44And, Mr. Speaker, we are, because the heart of this programme is a plan to make Britain stronger and Britain
00:51fairer.
