00:00I fully acknowledge and I do acknowledge here that this year as we've had to fix
00:09the foundations of our country, deal with the unprecedented mess that we
00:14inherited, we've asked a lot of you. I understand that and I want to acknowledge
00:22that. It has made a huge difference. Because of it the money's gone into the NHS
00:30and waiting lists are coming down. We've put investment into the skills of our
00:35young people. The new homes, new roads, new infrastructure that we're building. They
00:41are all vital for the long-term growth of our country but none of that would have
00:48been possible without your contribution. And I say thank you.
