That part of the speech in its full context:
...I have no reverse gear.
cannot go backwards. only forwards...
Yes, off side rear a little worn.
But all four road legal.
People OF Britain
Hear me when I say to you
that
MOT failure is something that history will not forgive.
We will
Therefore
undertake this day to ensure compliance with a fifteen point plan to remediate
ALL
windscreen wipers
(including rear)
To check brakes where necessary.
To apply the handbrake according to people's real needs
To be tough on rust
And the causes of rust
To eliminate stone chips on windscreens WHATEVER THEIR SIZE
To allow the proper function of rear view mirrors
and
wing mirrors
TO ENABLE ACCESS TO SEAT BELTS
to fit child seats
properly and securely, whatever the child.
To make the horn work as it should,
disagreeable though this might be in the short term.
Check hazards.
In traffic indicate.
Headlights dipped and full beam.
To fit catalytic converters that work.
To remove, once and for all, the scourge of cracks in exhaust units
and to make petrol lead free for all.
As we move forward, I have only this to say to you:
Mirror
Signal
Maneouvre.
God bless you.
