00:00give a great long election speech don't worry about that but obviously it is an election that's

00:03all about change you know the opportunity is to vote to continue with what we've got

00:08in my view that's not been very good or we can vote to change that and have a different government

00:15come in and start cleaning up the mess and taking our country forward but it is a vote

00:21all about change it is a very much a change election and the only thing i'd say about that

00:26is if you do want change and we've been campaigning now for weeks and weeks and weeks

00:31across the country almost everybody says to me i do think once i do want things to change

01:44an independent commissioner which is a fantastic thing that we do for veterans we haven't got

01:48enough teachers in our basic subjects so in maths we've got too many children and young people being

01:54taught maths by supply teachers or pe teachers rather than maths teachers and that lives with
