| 0:00.0 | Hello, I'm welcome to the political party this one features conservative MP Johnny Mercer. |
| 0:05.6 | I've never met Johnny before, but I'd seen him on things. I'd seen him be very funny |
| 0:10.0 | on things and he's an amazing personality. So heartfelt, really passionate, full of energy, |
| 0:18.8 | a very hopeful individual and I think that's the main thing. Apart from the fact he's |
| 0:22.7 | really, really funny and so likable, is that he got real hope in the future and despite |
| 0:29.7 | everything at the moment, I think he genuinely thinks there's a huge opportunity now for |
| 0:36.1 | a far better politics. Now, we might disagree on what better politics means, but my word, |
| 0:42.2 | it was a thrill to hear him talking the way that he did. He's got some incredible army |
| 0:46.6 | stories and he's really seen things and in a way it felt that most of the interview |
| 0:52.6 | wasn't political in the political sense. So it was quite different from other interviews, |
| 0:58.4 | but he is just so impressive and really funny and I'm sure you will enjoy it. |
| 1:04.1 | First of all, as well, a big thanks to everyone who's been seeing me on tour. It's been such a thrill. |
| 1:10.1 | I think it's the most enjoyable to have ever done and my word, Lester was great, Barnard |
| 1:18.8 | Castle, Hexham, Darlington, North Anatomia, all wonderful. Thank you to everyone who's been to |
| 1:24.0 | those. The tour continues. Friday 1 March, Established Town Hall, 7 March, London South |
| 1:31.2 | Bank Centre, 8 March, in Stafford, 12 March, London South Bank Centre, 14 March, Cambridge. |
| 1:38.6 | That's selling very well. That's almost sold out. 15 March, in Corby, I think, has sold out. |
| 1:42.7 | The 90th March, London back at the other palace, in the main room, 26 March, London, |
| 1:48.1 | and Lester Square Theatre, which is the biggest stand-up show I've ever done. |
| 1:52.0 | 31 March in Bristol, 5 April in Fabricium. There's loads more, but I've added some extra dates. |
| 1:58.0 | I've added another date of the Sulford Lairry on the 9th of May. The other one sold out very |
| 2:02.3 | quickly, so I've put that on-send and that's selling very well. So if you'd like to come to that, |
