But people, you know, you talk to Labour MPs, ministers, they will say that you knock on the door and people say they actually really hate Keir Starmer.
Now, the problem, as we see it, if Nigel Farage is setting himself up to be the next British prime minister, it means there will be no reversal of Brexit because he was the totem, I suppose, for Brexit.
And yet Brexit is at the heart of many of Britain's economic ills.
Yes.
I mean, look, I mean, I think Brexit in a way was a symptom of the wider problems I was just discussing.
And reform did very well in the elections here in the last couple of days in places which voted for Brexit.
But the places that voted for Brexit were doing it also because they wanted change.
You know, it was a cry for help, really, that we've tried everything else, maybe this will do it.
But reform now, they don't talk about Brexit, of course, because it's deemed to be by many people a complete failure.
They're not talking about that now, but they are talking about the fact that people have been let down.
Immigration, as you say, is something they used as an example of what they regard to be broken Britain.
But yeah, I mean, the results were extremely good for Farage.
He claims that he's cleared Beecher's Brook and he could now win the Grand National, by which he means the general election in 2029.
But the things people complain about, I mean, besides local facilities, libraries, street cleaning, garbage, everything like that, not being as it used to be an efficient service.
But the NHS is also one of those topics.
And the NHS was populated by many people who came from outside Britain to keep it going.
You have Brexit and a lot of people from continental Europe said, not staying here, might never get tenure, might never get the right to live freely here.
I'm off.
So, I mean, joined up thinking is something that you hope people will have, but that's not necessarily so.
Well, I think you've made the point very well.
