00:00 On behalf of the Labour Party, I'd like to wish you all a happy new year.
00:05 I hope you had a wonderful Christmas.
00:08 2023 has been a year of pride and achievement for the Lionesses,
00:13 yet again so close to doing an unprecedented double.
00:17 And of course, a year when our country stepped into a new era,
00:22 with a new King, King Charles III, crowned in the spring.
00:26 It has also been another tough year economically for millions of people.
00:32 And, beyond our shores, a time of great insecurity,
00:37 with war still raging in Ukraine and enormous suffering in Israel and Gaza.
00:44 The Labour Party will do everything we can in 2024
00:48 to push for a political solution to that conflict.
00:52 A secure Israel alongside a viable Palestinian state.
00:58 A hope that may be fragile, but that must be kept alive.
01:04 Because there is always power in that word hope.
01:08 It is the fuel of change, the oxygen of a better future.
01:12 And this year, in Britain, the power to shape the future of our country will rest in your hands.
01:20 In the Labour Party, we have been building to this for four years.
01:25 We are confident we have a plan that can move our country forward.
01:30 End the cost of living crisis.
01:32 Take back our streets.
01:34 Get the NHS back on its feet.
01:36 Cheaper energy bills for your home.
01:39 More opportunities for your children.
01:42 But most of all, I am ready to renew our politics,
01:46 so it once again serves our country.
01:50 I know that politics isn't held in particularly high regard in Britain,
01:54 but I have spent four years bringing the Labour Party back to service.
01:59 And in 2024, we can do the same for politics.
02:04 So wherever you are, however you are celebrating,
02:08 Happy New Year.
02:11 Let's make sure this is the year where together we get Britain's future back.
