I've got no problem with people being angry.
I am really angry about what's happened to my life.
I'm pretty furious, to be honest.
But you then have a choice what you do with that anger.
And you can use that anger for good.
You can use it to make a difference.
You can use it to address some of the challenges that we face and tackle some of those problems that we've got in society.
But you can also use it to unite people.
And you can use it to celebrate the many, many good things and the many...
millions of people across this country who are out there day in, day out, whether that's the scout leaders or the sports instructors or the volunteers at the library or whatever it is, whoever those people are, let's celebrate them because that is the story of our country and we need to be a bit prouder and a bit louder in telling it.
I think we're in a dangerous era.
Yeah, we're in an era where safety and security has become an intrinsic part of being an MP.
It's become an intrinsic part of being a local councillor, sadly.
And I've had some horrible incidents in my constituency and elsewhere across the country where councillors have been subjected to really horrible abuse and attacks.
Sadly, these horrific things have happened to other families, including Sir David Amess's family, the MP that was murdered in 2021.
But we did take the decision and we felt we had the strength to do lots of things in Jo's name to make sure that she was never forgotten and her values were never forgotten.
And I guess that's where we are 10 years down the line.
But again, you know, there is a broader issue around society and how we treat each other as human beings.
So yes, I do worry about it.
But equally, we can't give up hope.
