| 0:00.0 | Labour intends to purge MPs who oppose Israel's mass slaughter of Gaza and who are left-wing. |
| 0:06.8 | Now by left-wing, just so clear, I mean MPs who support things like public ownership of our utilities, taxing the rich in big business to invest |
| 0:14.4 | in our crumbling public services, scrapping student tuition fees, the rights of migrants, |
| 0:19.6 | the sort of things which actually a man called Kirstarmonade the key pledges of his leadership |
| 0:26.7 | election back in 2020 in the Kafka-esque world of today's Labour Party supporting the very |
