This is LBC from Global, leading Britain's conversation with James O'Brien.

0:14.0

Hello, three minutes after ten is the time.

0:16.6

You're listening to James O'Brien on LBC, PMQs today, which oddly remains a somewhat exciting prospect.

0:24.2

We shall fill it it for the very, very best bits and pick over the carcass of whatever emerges

0:30.5

with our good friend and colleague Theo Usherwood shortly. I am drawn to, I don't know if you've
