00:00Really? I mean, to be honest, I'm not quite sure with all these titles, anyway.
00:05Nothing's wrong with that.
00:07He's just a normal human being doing his job.
00:09If people found that he's fine, I mean, he's fine.
00:13He's all he deserves.
00:15He deserves it?
00:16Yeah, of course. Why not?
00:18I think everyone deserves it.
00:20You should deserve one as well.
00:22I should deserve one, please.
00:24What can I say? The world's gone mad.
00:27Bye.
00:29Well, good for him.
00:31I would say congratulations and enjoy your title.
00:36I'm proud of you if you got a title. I wish I had a title.
00:40I don't have any particular opinion about it.
00:43Why is that an issue?
00:45I think he's had 14 years of a conservative government
00:48that tried to defund everything he's doing.
00:50He's been up against the opposition for that whole time
00:53and he managed to get re-elected.
00:55He cares about air pollution and the environment in London,
00:58which has improved, and we just need more of that.
