Katrine? 442 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,520 In a surprising turn of events, Bent Sejrø wants to take the floor. 443 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:31,240 It could be a sign of Nyborg's desperation asking her perhaps last and only friend 444 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:33,560 in Danish politics to speak on her behalf. 445 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,240 "What are my options?" 446 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:45,160 That was always Birgitte's question to me during her tenure as PM. 447 00:34:45,240 --> 00:34:47,520 The first female PM. 448 00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:52,640 But she was probably also one of the best PMs we've had. 449 00:34:52,720 --> 00:34:57,200 Why? Because she always showed her human side. 450 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:01,840 She was the first PM to take leave to look after her child. 451 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,200 She was certainly ahead of her time. 452 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:09,240 Five hundred years ago, Machiavelli wrote 453 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:13,800 that it is much safer to be feared than loved. 454 00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:20,560 He said it because he supported not democracy, but tyranny. 455 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,080 It's the opposite with Birgitte Nyborg. 456 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:27,240 We support her because we love her. 457 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:31,320 But you know what? 458 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,480 Lately, I've begun to fear you, my girl. 459 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:38,920 Birgitte, 460 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:41,320 I can no longer 461 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:43,280 see your human side. 462 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:46,280 I've lost it. 463 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:48,640 Or perhaps you have. 464 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:55,400 So I have to say that you've stripped me of the option of supporting you 465 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:57,240 because 466 00:35:58,320 --> 00:35:59,920 I can no longer find you. 467 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:05,200 Dear friends, that is why 468 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:10,120 today, I'll be voting for the candidate whom I believe I recognize. 469 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:11,840 Jon Berthelsen. 470 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,160 -Torben? -Yes, Narciza… 471 00:36:20,240 --> 00:36:22,840 That really caught us off guard. 472 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:26,160 A crippling statement from Bent Sejrø, 473 00:36:26,240 --> 00:36:30,760 who has been Nyborg's unwavering support throughout all of her years in politics. 474 00:36:30,840 --> 00:36:35,080 But Nyborg is still in a strong position. The battle isn't lost. 475 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:44,160 It's a blow, and you got knocked down, but you can get back up. 476 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:48,280 I know. I was there when you won the election by saying 477 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:50,400 that you were too fat and your dress was too purple. 478 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:56,280 -That's the one Bent can no longer see. -That's why you have to take him down. 479 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:59,360 He just stabbed you in the back. The fucking gloves are off. 480 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:02,960 You have to be back in 45 minutes. 481 00:37:07,240 --> 00:37:10,360 "Bent, I love you very much. Your words always mean a lot to me." 482 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:17,000 "That's why it hurt me when I was told you may have dementia." 483 00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:18,800 You have to. 484 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,600 You can't win without questioning his credibility. 485 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:32,120 I need a moment. 486 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:39,800 Okay. 487 00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:45,520 Get a handle on your speech. 488 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:56,560 Here's today's edition of Politiken.
