Thrilled they spelt my name right.
Well, today I got the opportunity to address the main hall at Labour Party Conference during the Rebuilding our Economy debate. Luckily, the hall was nice and full too as people were congregating ahead of Ed Balls speaking. Video is now up on iPlayer and I appear around 2:16.05

Thank you very much to everyone who sent Twitter comments/stopped me afterwards, really appreciate the feedback and glad that it went down wel. Hopefully science funding is something we can keep on the political agenda.
I’ll grab the video properly when I am back home, just wanted to quick post this for now.
I talk really fast… I hadn’t realised.
Edit: What’s with Kinnock and Hain hogging my limelight too?
Its great to find a politician who cares about the climate change problem. We had a proven solution to this 50 years ago but squandered it, in favour of weapons production. Ask Baroness Bryony Worthington to explain more, of email me for more information.
