Note on record

Transcript from the video's captions, fetched on 2026-10-07; not an official record. Captions do not say who is speaking: Polifiles assigned each turn by reading the captions, without checking the audio. Sky News' upload of the full interview recorded at the Conservative conference in Birmingham (11 minutes), from the first question to the closing thanks, which are left out. The presenter is named in the video description and in the captions ("Beth"). The captions run the two voices together in places, so a few short overlapping fragments are assigned by meaning, not by the '>>' marks (for example "post election as well", "make you angry" and "to have broken" are given to Beth Rigby). Trimmed: ends at "That's what I want to see from you.".
