00:00I want to start by congratulating the Prime Minister.
00:04He's the other party leader who won a by-election last week.
00:07Although I think I'm much happier with my new MP than he is with his.
00:13Two weeks ago, Mr Speaker, two weeks ago, the Prime Minister told the House
00:18that the government was funding defence and everything was under control.
00:24The very next day, the Defence Secretary resigned,
00:27saying the Prime Minister was unable and the Treasury unwilling to fund the defence of our country.
00:35What changed?
00:37Mr Speaker, she references the by-election.
00:40I'm very pleased with our new Member of Parliament.
00:45Can I also say to her, in Gorton and Denton, the Tories got 1.9% of the vote.
00:53Can I congratulate her? Because in Makerfield, they got 2.2% of the vote.
01:01Just edging past Count Binface.
01:05She says they're winning everywhere.
01:07At that rate, it'll take them 500 years to get back into power.
01:11I know I did come over.
01:11It's not going to have some support.
01:11The A, a movie for you two weeks time.
01:12Yeah my favourite thing.
