00:18 So if you are going to take a chance with controversial figures,

00:22 you've got to be prepared to take a hit when it all goes wrong.

00:25 I think it's good. I think it shows you what he's actually like as a person.

00:29 Because I think he gets a very negative rep in the mainstream media.

00:34 And I think it gives politicians, it gets seen as like they're not human sometimes.

00:38 I think it's good to see the human side of him.

00:43 I know people give them a lot of stick and a lot of grief, but they are just people at the end of the day.

00:47 It's not a bad thing. He's a bit diverse. I think he's pretty confident.
