I was at home doing broadcast from my bedroom.

I've heard Friday, but again, it's one of those things where we don't literally know Keir's own mind and we'd have to know that to know the real answer, right?

The passive voice was strong.

Well, yeah, the most striking thing, obviously, was him being very emotional when he was talking about his family, which didn't surprise me at all, because he is very emotional when it comes to his family.

And he's he's always been that way.

He's also very, very defensive of them.

And, you know, that's completely understandable.

But he can get quite angry as well as upset about that.

So that didn't surprise me.

But then what also struck me listening to it was that list call he gave in that so many of the things, and then I had lots of calls and messages to this effect afterwards, were things that he had been dragged kicking and screaming towards.

So you had obviously children being lifted out of poverty.

So that was a reference to removing the two child cap.

Now that's something that he initially suspended MPs over before having to let them back in because they U-turned on it.

There was the employment rights and obviously lots of trade union people were going, cannot believe that he just cited that because he watered it down and it was such a fight and a struggle and we still need to have part two for the rest of it.

So it was kind of actually a bit of a list of the struggles that he's had in government and the problems that people have had with him.

It was quite funny.

So then they had this, as Al says, this Downing Street party.

And I'm told they had tried to avoid those moments because of the kind of echoes of previous governments, the lockdown parties, Partygate.

Partygate.

And this obviously was a moment where it's like, well, it's all ending, isn't it?
