Good evening and welcome to the Pompey Politics Podcast.

I'm Ian Tini Morris.

And I'm Simon Sandsbury.

Well, what a week we've had, hey, a few minutes late,

slight technical difficulties.

We will not revel in those. We will celebrate what has been a fantastic week for the city of Portsmouth.

Are you, Simon?

Yes, so aside from apologies, everybody who's been waiting with bated breath for the show,

but yeah, I forgot to press the go live button, so nothing more technical than that.

It's an idiot at the controls.

So yes, so we have victorious Viola and, hang on, I was trying to think, no, hang on.

Pretty bloody pleased, Paula.

There we go.

That's brilliant.

So we have Viola and Paula from Let's Stop At Quinn, who've finished

their rounds of work events to celebrate the announcement that came out this week. But yes,

back onto the show for, I think, the third or fourth occasion to discuss that outcome.

So I guess the first and most obvious question is how does it feel after at least 18 months,

possibly closer to two years of campaigning to finally have won?

Sick. And sometimes I still can't believe it because it was 24 hours early the decision.

So it was quite a shock.

It was a shock.
