| 0:00.0 | And there's some breaking news as we record this podcast. |
| 0:12.8 | Philip Hammond has announced that he will resign from the cabinet if Boris Johnson becomes leader. |
| 0:17.9 | Close the door on your way out, Phil. |
| 0:19.7 | You hard-hearted man, Ian Dale. |
| 0:24.8 | Doesn't it make... Doesn't it just get to you, though? These people grandstanding saying, |

| 1:23.2 | McDonald or Philip Hammond, I think I know which one you'd choose. No, actually, I would |
| 1:27.0 | probably choose John McDonnell. |
| 1:28.3 | Probably. |
| 1:29.0 | Yeah, probably. |
