00:00I personally think we should take longer than that to get the right person in place.
00:04We need to take a few months to decide exactly what went wrong
00:08and then decide the right person to take us forward and present a viable challenge to the Labour Party,
00:15which I think we can do.
00:17One very good thing for us in terms of the result from last week was that
00:22there was very little appetite for Labour government.
00:25It was very low vote share.
00:28I think there's no doubt that what we saw on the doorsteps is reflected in the national result.
00:33There was very little appetite for Keir Starmer.
00:35So if we can regroup, unite, get a good leader, present the alternative,
00:41I think we can be in good shape to present a viable case for a Conservative government in 2029.
00:48That's what we'll be setting out to do.
00:50I don't think there's any rush to get the right person in place to do that.
