The thought of my kids going into politics, honestly.
Undoubtedly brighter, better looking, the full shebang.
But I think sacrificing two generations is enough, Rory.
Let's not sacrifice a third.
Look, the reason why I wouldn't want them to do it
and ultimately I'll obviously always back my kids in what they want to do, but I don't think they'd ever want to do it.
And I wouldn't want them to do it is for all you.
And I think about fatherhood a lot as, as you would.
And I just think that I know how I had to create a alternative normal for myself when I was growing up.
And I know that my kids have to do the same as well, where I've presented and projected an unnormal normal for them.
And that comes with burden, comes with some opportunities, no doubt, but it comes with burden and it comes with some levels of hardship, particularly in the current climate of how politics is.
So I want to serve my time as first minister, do right by this country, demonstrate we can do politics differently.
And then having done that, I want to make sure I'm spending my time nurturing, supporting my kids.
And by that time, you never know, I might even be a granddad.
I can look after them as well.
Oh, lovely.
I think my eldest has read Rory's book.
You were chinning my eldest yesterday for his dress code.
He was very upset about that.
Maybe not anymore.
