00:00Well, I think Channel 4, not themselves, but the company, the production company they used,
00:07have done something that is deeply dishonest and could have a serious effect upon the election
00:12result. I mean, it's the most outrageous smear I've ever seen. This guy is a set-up. He was
00:17acting from the minute he walked into that office. He came up with a stream of invective
00:22not seen since Alf Garnett was on the television in the early 1970s. And some of it was just
00:28turning moss in the Wetherspoons. It wasn't even serious. It was nonsense. So I really
00:33feel that Channel 4 or the production company need to be called before an inquiry. Let's
00:39find out the truth about what happened.
