Keir Starmer mentions again how his dad 'was a toolmaker'

So, Keith, thank you so much for talking to us. It's nice that we're in a workshop because I think you've mentioned a few times on the campaign trail that your, your dad was a tool mate. My dad was a tool maker. This looks as though it's wood, whereas he was a tool maker using metal. But this is obviously a wood workshop. I want you to, if you can put the campaign to one side, Forget about the manifesto. If we gave you a minute on Five News to tell our viewers why they should vote for you, what would you say? Because I want to put the country first. I want to make sure that we can improve as a country. And I think that for almost everybody watching, they will, you know, affiliate with me saying I want myself to. As a child, I wanted to succeed. I wanted my family to succeed, my community succeed, and I want my country to succeed. I think for many, many people, they will chime with that because that's what they want for themselves. So it's about taking our country forward. The second thing I'd say, because I do think this is really important in this election, I want to return politics to service. So that's not necessarily about the individual policies, not about the manifestos as such, it's about the mindset of politics. I think politics has become too much about self entitlement and this latest thing with the Gambling Commission is the latest version, if you like, of the politics that's got lost in self entitlement. We need to bring it back to service. A decade of national renewal is on the horizon. It's one week to go and we go into that election as a changed Labour Party. A Labour Party that is proud to say that we always put country 1st and party second. We've got a proud manifesto for wealth creation, for job creation, for the security that people need in all of their homes and all of their businesses. We have a great candidate here and across the country. I've never had such a great team of candidates putting forward and I'm proud of each and every one of them. Because this is the chance we have to take our argument, our confident argument in the last week of this campaign. So we're in good spirits. We're campaigning with a smile on our face and a spring in our step. But, and there's always a but in the Labour Party speech, you know it. But every vote has to be earned. We can't take anything for granted. The polls do not predict the future. In every constituency. It's going to come down to a few votes here or there. Do people come out? Will they vote for us or other parties? We take nothing for granted. We fight for every vote. Until 10:00 PM next Thursday. Every single vote matters. It is very hard to win an election. It should be really hard to win an election and have an opportunity to serve our country.
