00:00Would you like to lead that team? Would you want to be Prime Minister?
00:03I want to deliver as part of the team. And I've always said that it is a team effort.
00:07It's not one person, it's not a presidential situation. We all have to pull together to deliver that.
00:13But would you want to lead the team? Because the team does have to have a leader. Would you want
00:17to be a leader?
00:18We do have to have a leader, and we've got a leader, and I'm not going to go into hypotheticals,
00:22but...
00:22So you're not ruling out potentially taking over as leader?
00:25We have said that we have to do better, and we have to drive forward that change. I did that
00:30in government. I was very successful.
00:32I brought in the Employment Rights Act. They said we couldn't do it in 100 days. We did. We had
00:37our detractors from it, and we still delivered it.
00:39We're talking in the abstract, though, really, aren't we? We're not getting to the nub of what's really going on
00:43right now in the Labour Party,
00:44which is that you're split down the middle. Some people say the Prime Minister should go. Some say he should
00:49stay.
00:50You're not really telling me what you think.
00:51No, what's happening in the Labour Party at the moment is we've just had a severe beating off the electorate,
00:57and our ministers, our cabinet members,
01:01our Prime Minister, and our members, and our voters are saying things have to change.
01:07And some people say change the leader.
01:08Well, some people are saying that, but what I'm saying is the delivery of what we promised the electorate
01:14is the most important thing that we need to be concentrating on at the moment.
