00:00Well, I think some on the extreme left seem to think that violence is acceptable.

00:06And it never was, and it never should be.

00:09Well, why can't we agree to disagree with passion?

00:12You know, you shout a rude word at me, I don't care.

00:15But, you know, the threat you're going to actually be physically assaulting is not very funny.

00:19So the people who were driving past calling you all sorts of words...

00:22Yeah, well, that's fine, I don't mind that.

00:24That is...

00:25Look, you can go back centuries in this country.

00:28Hustlings have always been quite lively, you know.

00:31That's fine.

00:33But when it comes to threats, which is obviously what's happened,

00:37which is why, you know, the police have been involved to the extent they've been involved today,

00:40and they've advised me I can't get on.

00:42Have you got any specific threats today, or is it just general?

00:45No, I think it's a bit...

00:48Not pretty, let's put it that way.

00:52Good morning, everybody.

00:55How are we all?

00:58Good. Now, look, I tell you what, it's amazing.

01:01I've only been leader for a week.

01:04I've come out of retirement.

01:06Must be the bumps felt, really.

01:08But, hey, we are, Reform are in second place now

01:13in the North East, the North West, and Yorkshire and the Humber.

01:18And in this constituency, we're well ahead of the Conservatives,

01:22but Labour are out in front.

01:25So I want to say this.

01:27If you vote Conservative in Barnsley, Labour will win.

01:30If you vote Conservative in Barnsley,

01:32you'll finish up, undoubtedly, with a Labour MP.

01:36But if you vote for the real voice of opposition,

01:40we can win this seat.

01:42And if you're a Labour voter in Barnsley,

01:44well, Keir Starmer was the man that won the second referendum.

01:48So if you believe in Brexit,

01:50if you believe in Brexit, vote for our guys,

01:53because we want this really to happen.

01:56Now, I can hear a protest coming on its way,

01:59but I've got the message out,

02:01and they don't like the fact we're doing as well as we are.

02:04We're not in a good place, are we?

02:06No. No.

02:08Well, I'm fighting to try and get some decent values back.

02:11If we don't control our borders,

02:13if we don't stop the population rise,

02:16it's catastrophic.

02:18It is.

02:19And it's a shame, because we're a beautiful country.

02:22We must be beautiful, because people want to come here.

02:26I know. Everyone does.

02:27Everybody wants to come here.

02:28But we've got to control that.

02:29But we've got to.

02:30But we can't, Nigel, because there's always somebody there

02:33what puts down.

02:35Starmer's going to win.

02:36Oh, God.

02:37That's done.

02:38The question is, who's the voice of opposition?

02:40You.

02:41Well, there you go. You'd better vote for us.

02:42Bet.
