Soaring debts, as you described at the beginning. Low productivity. This is, you can't just manage that.

Yeah, low birth rate, exactly, falling birth rate. What are we going to do? And we would just come out with, well, we'll have a little bit more childcare there, or we'll cut tax by like a penny. And these things create huge swells of frustration. And it all spilled out this July, where we had tried but failed to cut immigration. We had tried to cut taxes.

Again, it not quite working because we just couldn't manage the balance sheet between how much we were spending and how much we needed to take in taxes.

The Conservatives lost. And... Labour won on a historic low share of the vote, 34%. I don't think any party has ever won with that number. But also, they won a landslide because of reform. So Labour are winning on a low share of the vote because people just want to kick us out. But the low share of the vote isn't just, you know, a majority of one.

It's a majority of a hundred and something, which is a landslide because reform were holding our legs. And they only won five seats despite having lots of votes spread around the country. And it was very much people voting to get conservatives out because they were just sick and tired of us, like what I call talking right and governing left, which annoys everybody.

Because the right doesn't get what it wants and the left doesn't like what it hears and doesn't recognize what you're doing. So they were sick of us. They were sick of the squabbling. There was a lot of infighting. And we would probably have lost anyway the natural fatigue that comes after 14 years in government. But the scale of the defeat was because of all of those other factors.

I think they probably would just have won. We would probably have had about 200 rather than 120. So they would have won, but we would have been a big opposition. I mean, I'm speculating. But if I look at the way the seats fell, maybe we would have had 250 and they'd have had 100.
