We have a plan. The Prime Minister set it out. We're determined to deliver that rather than go
00:04
back to square one with Kirstarmer who doesn't seem to have a plan. He hasn't confirmed whether
00:09
HS2 will go ahead or not. More importantly for the places like... Did you just say Kirstarmer's
00:13
not got a plan? Well not when it comes to HS2 because he went to Manchester. You know you guys
00:17
say he's not got a plan every day don't you? Well because it's true. Two weeks ago he went up to
00:21
Manchester and and then said that he would not be delivering HS2 further north. Standby, listen to this.
00:28
We have a plan, we're working to it. People will start to see the benefits of that and it goes
00:32
against Kirstarmer who doesn't actually have a plan. Labour don't get this but we get it.
00:37
We need a very clear plan. Labour can't say what they would do because they have no plan.
00:42
Labour by contrast has no plan. They have no plan whatsoever. No plan on immigration, no plan on the economy.
00:48
Labour have got no plan. We're going to be on our wall. Well I'm happy to be on the wall. I'll tell you why
00:53
there's no plan because we've said we've invested £36 billion pounds across these cities and
00:58
towns in the north and the midlands. And the Labour Party have not said they'll back that but
01:02
two weeks ago Kirstarmer went to Manchester and said he wouldn't deliver HS2. So where's the money going?
01:07
That is why I think I'm entitled to say he has no plan. You're on the wall, trust me.
01:12
I'm on the wall, I'm proud to be on your wall.
