Note on record: Transcript from the video's captions, fetched on 2026-10-07; not an official record.

Sky News' Electoral Dysfunction podcast upload of the whole interview, recorded in Helsinki; the opening teaser clips, Beth Rigby's introduction and the greeting cross-talk are left out. Short replies from Beth Rigby inside answers ('Yeah', 'Mhm') are given to her as separate turns. Trimmed: starts at "Prime Minister, welcome to our podcast."; ends at "Definitely, thank you.".
