So my first question is, what do you think?

Great material?

And my second question is, what do you think about, you know, the idea that we know everything when we so clearly don't?

I genuinely find it baffling that this particular Labour government, Starmer in particular, doesn't see this as a, and I'm so sorry to use this language, an opportunity, you know, like to stand up in front of the country and say, here is a problem.

Here are experts that can fix it.

Here is science.

Here's my managerial approach.

Like that'd be quite a good flex for him.

You know, there's a tendency for politicians to use other crises as a way to show how powerful and strong they are.

And, you know, and we can't do that with this.

If the government did take up the framing that you've outlined, do you think it would be powerful?

Do you think it would be a vote winner?

So speaking of climate stories, before we go, it snowed two weeks ago in New York.

Since then, the temperature has barely risen above freezing.

So snow is clogging up the city streets.

Well, that's it.
