00:00Well, we're celebrating this wonderful tourist area here in Devon.
00:03I hope people come here and spend some money in this wonderful area.
00:08And the question is, does Andy Burnham understand areas like this?
00:11Now, I hope the Prime Minister, he improves things in our country.
00:17We've campaigned on social care, he's talking about that.
00:19We've campaigned on improving and reforming our politics so people have more power.
00:24If he does that, we're interested in listening.
00:26If he actually tackles the red lines of Keir Starmer on Europe and actually rebuilds our relationship with Europe so
00:32our economy can grow, our door is open to those sorts of discussions.
00:36But my fear, from what I've heard of him so far, is he's a bit of a sort of city
00:41Prime Minister.
00:42He knows about Manchester, he knows about London, but does he really understand coastal communities like this, rural communities, market
00:50towns across our country?
00:52And so that will be a challenge.
00:53Is he really going to speak up for the whole of England or is he Avanti Andi, knowing about Manchester
00:58and London only?
