Speaking in Westminster, the Labour leader said "This reshuffle answers a central question which is, I think that Britain deserves a government that wakes up every morning absolutely determined to solve the challenges we have and to take our country forward”.

00:00 This reshuffle answers a central question, which is, I think that Britain deserves a
00:05 government that wakes up every morning absolutely determined to solve the challenges we have
00:11 and to take our country forward.
00:13 We need that as soon as possible.
00:14 I'm really pleased that having changed the Labour Party, we're now in a position to put
00:19 our top team on the table to show it to the country and I'm delighted that we've got such
00:24 a strong team on the pitch now.
00:28 I think what's important is to recognise that with this reshuffle we now have the strongest
00:34 possible players on the pitch for what's going to be a crucial part of the journey.
00:38 The question I've asked myself is, have I got really, really good, talented people in
00:43 post and people hungry and determined to change our country for the better?
00:49 That's why I've put this team together and I'm delighted to have put such a strong team
00:53 together to face the country.
