| 0:00.0 | Kirstalmers government has exposed itself for what it is. This is supposed to be the Labour Party, |
| 0:06.4 | a Labour government. Let's just quickly go through who their big targets have been so far. |
| 0:11.9 | They've gone for pensioners by attacking the winter fuel payment. They've gone for children |
| 0:15.8 | by voting to keep the Tory's two-child benefit cap, which drives so many kids into poverty, many of them |
| 0:21.7 | in working households as it happens. And now they're going for disabled people. So we have a government |
| 0:28.3 | which robs pensioners, robs children, and which is now determined to rob disabled people and |
| 0:35.5 | those with serious health conditions. It's like they're going through a list of society's most vulnerable people and those with serious health conditions. It's like they're going through a list |

| 0:45.0 | harder? What's next? Let's hope they don't start leafing through the Old Testament and settle on, |

| 1:11.6 | parts for F-35 jets to reign death and destruction on children, the elderly, innocent civilians. |
| 1:19.4 | So what have the dead behind the eyes, soulless hacks who've run the Labour Party got in store |
| 1:23.8 | for disabled people as they plunge the party into crisis by repelling anyone |
| 1:29.6 | who's slightly to the left of Genghis Khan. For the avoidance of doubt, I'm talking about the |
| 1:34.1 | advisors who actually run the Labour Party, as revealed by the recent book, Get In, the inside |
| 1:39.0 | story of Labour under Stama. These advisors briefed that Keir Starrma thinks he's driving the train, but in fact they've |
| 1:46.2 | sat him in front of the driverless district light railway. Now, originally these ghouls were going to |
