00:00I think David Cameron is right on this. I think that the last thing this country needs,
00:04after all we've been through over the past decade, is to re-engage in the Brexit debate,
00:08the Brexit arguments that really captured this country and held it hostage for the best part
00:13of 10 years. It's done, the people voted, we enacted the result, let's move on and take
00:17advantage of the, yes, the really close relationship we have with our continental neighbours, but also
00:22the freedoms that it allows us to undertake in terms of doing new trade deals, taking decisions
00:26on tax, supporting British farmers and fishermen, all of these things we would not be able
00:30to do if we were back in the European Union. So let's leave it as it is, let's make the
00:34most of what we've got and let's celebrate this new relationship that we have with our
00:37closest partners. So no re-negotiations at all? Absolutely not.
