00:15 Across the country people are crying out for change
00:19 and this election is the chance to make that happen.
00:23 In so many parts of the country it's the Liberal Democrats who can beat the Conservatives
00:29 who've taken people for granted for so long.
00:33 Every vote for the Liberal Democrats is a vote for a local champion, an MP
00:39 who will fight for you, your family and your community to get the fair deal that you so deserve.
00:45 Well I'm glad that the Prime Minister has a long last call for the election.
00:49 He should have done it months ago.
00:52 And I'm looking forward to the debates ahead of ourselves
00:56 so that the Liberal Democrats can put our positive case to transform our country and transform our politics.
