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. BBC Politics' upload of the live studio interview on BBC One's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg in Liverpool on the eve of the Labour conference (broadcast 27 Sep 2026, per the video description), from the first question to his last answer. Left out: the presenter's one-line lead-in ("Well, let's speak to him this morning"; the report she refers to, "as we heard just there", is not in the upload) and her closing thanks. The presenter is named in the video title and he addresses her as "Laura". Turns assigned by meaning rather than the '>>' marks: the captions often clip the first words of a turn ("are we talking about then?", "will.", "me just come back", "on, you're not answering") and run overlapping words together. His short acknowledgements ("Yeah.", "Mhm.", "Yes, there is.") are kept as his turns. Doubtful: the exchange about the economy and "the gold medal" (from "That has impacted [clears throat] the gold medal" to "No one's asking for a gold medal"): the first part is given to him and "No, no one is No one's asking for a gold medal" to Laura Kuenssberg; and "on a grand scale. So many people in their 20s stuck on benefits" in the welfare exchange is given to him, after her remark "we talked about that before at some length". Trimmed: starts at "Prime Minister, welcome in your childhood stomping ground"; ends at "And that's what this week is all about.".
