00:00Have you spoke to Andy Burnham since he's taken office and what do you make of his first days?
00:03Yeah, I mean, you know, we've seen each other face to face, we've texted.
00:07I think he's had a really good first few days.
00:11You know, it's really important for him to build on the record of Keir Starmer in terms of trying to
00:18fix the foundations.
00:19The inheritance of Keir Starmer was awful and he's building that in the first three days in terms of, you
00:24know,
00:24the support he's given in terms of VAT relief, the support he's given in terms of people across the country,
00:29in terms of the bus cap, still cheaper in London.
00:31And the support he's given today to those in hospitality from April.
00:35And I'm hoping, of course, in the next few days and weeks, you'll see more policies from Andy showing
00:39he understand the challenges individuals, families and businesses face and respond to that accordingly.
