| 0:00.0 | This is LBC from Global, leading Britain's conversation with James O'Brien. |
| 0:09.2 | Four minutes after ten is the time. You are listening to James O'Brien on LBC, where we will today have a little look at calls from the food industry to sort of nice way's no nice word of putting this, to suspend the |
| 0:23.0 | law in the hope of mitigating the impact of a so-called no-deal Brexit. Now, listen, I'm no |
| 0:28.1 | international trade expert. Neither am I an expert on medicine food, road haulage, transport, |
| 0:34.8 | or many other issues, to be perfectly frank with you. |

| 1:29.9 | of getting a seagull to leave you alone. I'm not sure I want to tell you that, but because one of |
| 1:35.8 | the greatest moments of my life involved a seagull swooping from the sky. I think we're in Margate, |
| 1:41.3 | actually, and plucking a pasty from my beloved wife's hands as she screamed in absolute horror and I fell over. |
| 1:51.0 | Such was the state of hysterical laughter into which I collapsed. |
| 1:54.6 | Anyway, five minutes after ten. |
