00:00So to be clear, I don't understand, are you going to be involved in a leadership contest or not?
00:05Well, there isn't a leadership contest at the moment.
00:07But when there is, and it's imminent, Prime Minister, isn't it?
00:08There isn't one at the moment, but as I've said on many, many occasions,
00:12I don't think that's a good thing for the country to plunge us into chaos.
00:16I would also add that now that Andy has won, which is really important, really good,
00:21he's a huge asset to us, then now will inevitably be a Manchester mayoralty by-election starting straight away.
00:28So it's important that we pull together for that.
00:30But if there is a contest, just to be clear with you, then yes, I will run, I will stand,
00:35and I've said repeatedly, I'm not going to walk away from that.
