| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the rest of politics with me, Rory Stewart. |
| 0:11.2 | And me, Alistair Campbell. |
| 0:12.8 | And Alistair, this week I think probably the most dramatic thing is that it looks like we're |
| 0:18.3 | on to probably the hottest year on record. We just have the hottest June on record, |
| 0:24.4 | now looks like we're going to have the hottest July on record. One of the hottest temperatures |
| 0:28.7 | ever recorded in over a hundred years recorded in California, China off the charts, Greece, |
| 0:35.7 | wildfires, Italy temperatures almost up at 50. And it's all your fault, Rory, because you're |
| 0:40.7 | never off airplanes. And it's all personally my fault. I must put my hands up. I have tried really, |
| 0:46.5 | really hard this year not to fly as much. And I've actually been pretty successful, but I have made |

| 1:25.1 | comical story about government claims around something whose economic impact looks like it's |
| 1:29.9 | going to be pretty small. Then I think you wanted to do intelligence report on China. So the |
| 1:35.9 | House of Commons Select Committee on Intelligence and Security has just produced a report warning |
| 1:42.4 | about Chinese infiltration into Britain and the lack of government action. And then probably |
| 1:47.6 | finally we should return to climate, particularly given what's going on this week. |
| 1:51.6 | Cool, good. Well, let's kick off with Labour then. You're in Jordan at the moment, |
