Bannon's War Room - WarRoom Battleground EP 963： Harnwell’s speech to the “Advance” conference in Sydney on the BETRAYAL of Judeo-Christian West

00:00:00.000 This is the primal scream of a dying regime.

00:00:07.000 Pray for our enemies.

00:00:09.000 Because we're going medieval on these people.

00:00:12.000 I got a free shot at all these networks lying about the people.

00:00:17.000 The people have had a belly full of it.

00:00:19.000 I know you don't like hearing that.

00:00:20.000 I know you try to do everything in the world to stop that,

00:00:22.000 but you're not going to stop it.

00:00:23.000 It's going to happen.

00:00:24.000 And where do people like that go to share the big lie?

00:00:27.000 Mega Media.

00:00:29.000 I wish in my soul, I wish that any of these people had a conscience.

00:00:34.000 Ask yourself, what is my task and what is my purpose?

00:00:38.000 If that answer is to save my country, this country will be saved.

00:00:44.000 War Room. Here's your host, Stephen K. Band.

00:00:48.000 Friday, 6th of March, Anno Domini, 2026.

00:00:58.000 Harnwell here at the helm on Steve Bannon's War Room.

00:01:02.000 Different type of show coming up for you over the next 60 minutes.

00:01:06.000 Well, two weeks ago, I was invited to speak in Sydney, Australia, on the theme of the gladiator school fighting to defend the West.

00:01:19.000 And this was a keynote speech in a conference organized by a great group of guys called Advance.

00:01:27.000 And they've had, in just their eight years worth of existence, quite a number of significant electoral victories.

00:01:34.000 And I was delighted, therefore, to fly from the very center of continental Europe, literally to the other side of the earth to talk about the speech and the importance of our Academy for the Judeo-Christian West.

00:01:51.000 I delivered a speech, chalk block, as you will see in references to the importance of the Judeo-Christian West.

00:02:00.000 This speech, I spent three months working on it, deciding exactly what I was going to say.

00:02:05.000 I hope you will appreciate watching it.

00:02:09.000 This speech generated more press coverage than any other speech I've ever delivered in my life.

00:02:17.000 And you'll probably get a reason why towards the end of the show, as I'm responding to the answers.

00:02:24.000 I was invited to walk back certain comments.

00:02:28.000 I absolutely refused to do so.

00:02:31.000 I feel very strongly that the invasion taking place in the West is of an existential nature.

00:02:37.000 So, I commend to you, for the next hour, this speech I gave in Sydney.

00:02:44.000 And I will join you back, just in 25 minutes' time, as we head into the commercial break.

00:02:50.000 So, stand by, and I do hope you enjoy this speech.

00:02:54.000 Thanks, Joe. Thanks very much.

00:02:56.000 Can you all hear me okay?

00:02:58.000 Yes.

00:02:59.000 Good morning.

00:03:02.000 One of the greatest ever historians in the comparative study of civilizations, Arnold Toynbee,

00:03:11.000 analyzed the demise of 20 notable civilizations.

00:03:16.000 In The Disintegrations of Civilizations, the fifth volume of his 12-volume magnum opus, A Study of History,

00:03:26.000 Toynbee noted that of the 21 civilizations he studied, 19 perished not by conquest from without, but by moral decay from within.

00:03:39.000 Writing on the eve of the Second World War, Toynbee said,

00:03:47.000 I do not believe that civilizations break down through being worsted by their environment.

00:03:56.000 I believe that when they do break down, the cause is not some blow from outside, but some inward spiritual failure.

00:04:06.000 Some kind of demoralization to which we human beings are not bound to succumb and for which we ourselves, therefore, bear the responsibility.

00:04:19.000 Or more simply, to quote his most famous expression,

00:04:25.000 Civilizations die by suicide, not by murder.

00:04:31.000 So just to reintroduce myself, I know Joe did it, but my name is Ben Harnwell.

00:04:37.000 I am the international editor of the number one rated US political show, Steve Bannon's Warren.

00:04:43.000 And I gather there is even a representation here in the audience that follows the show.

00:04:48.000 Thank you to Advance and specifically to Matthew Sheehan for inviting me here today.

00:04:55.000 And thank you to all of you for being here and your attention during this 35 minute presentation.

00:05:01.000 And I am going to leave 10 minutes for questions at the end for those of you who especially enjoy making conference speakers squirm in public.

00:05:13.000 So, if you can all hear me, if I can move off from the podium for one moment.

00:05:22.000 I live in Italy. I've lived in Italy for 15 years.

00:05:25.000 In some respects, many respects, one of the great founding contributions to Western civilization.

00:05:34.000 Some of you might know, I was involved in running, Joe mentioned it, a monastery, Trisulti.

00:05:43.000 I say a little bit, but obviously time is limited.

00:05:46.000 It's a complex of some 83,000 square meters.

00:05:51.000 But it has 15,000 square meters of roof.

00:05:56.000 And in the brief period that I ran that monastery before being so ingloriously kicked out, I learned something about how Italy works and how Italy thinks.

00:06:13.000 It has the historic roof tiles on these 15,000 square meters of roof.

00:06:19.000 That's a lot of roof.

00:06:20.000 And the Italians have an obsession about conformity and regularity. 0.99

00:06:27.000 You can't just, if you have a leak or you need a repair or you need to put a substitution in, you can't just do it.

00:06:35.000 You need to sort of write to the Soprintendenza.

00:06:38.000 You need to show them that they're the ones you're going to put in.

00:06:41.000 The color has to match.

00:06:43.000 They have to, they're obsessed about the uniformity.

00:06:46.000 To add an aside, if you cut down, they're so obsessed by uniformity, by conserving the landscape,

00:06:55.000 that if you chop down a tree on your own property under certain conditions, not only can they come and arrest you on the spot for doing so,

00:07:05.000 they can actually throw you in jail.

00:07:06.000 Again, the idea is the conservation of something, which is great.

00:07:11.000 Which is great, okay?

00:07:13.000 Especially Italy.

00:07:14.000 It's a beautiful, beautiful country.

00:07:16.000 But I sort of think it's somewhat quixotic to be obsessing so much at an institutional level.

00:07:29.000 You know, they have the laws that back this up about the uniformity of roof tiles

00:07:35.000 and have very little concern as to the people that are living beneath those roof tiles.

00:07:43.000 The point I'd like to try to make, and it's a controversial point, right, in some quarters,

00:07:50.000 but surely human beings, people, culture, communities, values, religious background,

00:08:00.000 those things are more important than roof tiles.

00:08:04.000 Yeah?

00:08:05.000 Yeah?

00:08:06.000 That's what I wanted to come here and share with you today.

00:08:12.000 I would like to try to contribute to a change in attitudes and a change in the conversation that we can have publicly,

00:08:24.000 where we can say roof tiles are fine, trees are fine, but let's put a little bit of energy into preserving what's going on underneath the roof tiles, right?

00:08:35.000 Because that's more important.

00:08:38.000 Now, I sort of think, I've been involved in, I first worked in Parliament, in the UK Parliament, in 95,

00:08:45.000 so that's like over 30 years ago.

00:08:47.000 I know you're going to say, come on, Harnwell, you're lying, you can't possibly be that old.

00:08:51.000 I heard, I felt the brainwaves you thinking, but it's, I was, I was working there for 30 years.

00:08:59.000 And I sort of developed this, you know, when people say, what's the core of your political philosophy?

00:09:06.000 Well, it splits into two, really.

00:09:08.000 I'm quite libertarian in the sense that I hate paying tax.

00:09:12.000 And that's really the starting point of my political philosophy, is that I hate paying tax.

00:09:17.000 Because as Ronald Reagan said, I know how government wastes my money.

00:09:20.000 So that's the, the second thing is, I think there is an onus of those who are involved in politics, to work towards a society, which is slightly better than the one that they were born into, right?

00:09:35.000 You can serve what's important, you know, you have policy experiments, sometimes they work, sometimes they don't work.

00:09:41.000 You have the capitalist free market, which is great at moving things forward.

00:09:45.000 So there's no reason why a society, you know, if anyone involved in politics after 20 years of contribution, 30 years of contribution to the public good, you're not leaving a society which is slightly better than the one that you inherited.

00:10:00.000 And that's not the case anymore, right?

00:10:03.000 Because we are now dealing with the first generation in the West, where parents have come to the conclusion that their kids are going to have a worse standard of life than the one that they themselves had.

00:10:16.000 And that's, that's unknown throughout the West.

00:10:18.000 So we've been failing.

00:10:20.000 If I say that the object of politics is to, is to basically make slightly better the society that you yourselves have, have inherited, we failed at that.

00:10:33.000 And just to, to, to give an example of the UK, for example, look at housing, because this is really sort of impacting young families and their ability to, to provide responsibly and create the next generation.

00:10:48.000 But I think 15 years ago, the average London price for property was four or five times the average salary.

00:10:58.000 And now it's 12 times.

00:11:00.000 And this is a, you know, it's not as if Brits are, are accelerating an explosion of, of, of reproducing children.

00:11:11.000 This is because there are people coming in to the country that need housing.

00:11:15.000 And that's putting the, the, the crisis on property.

00:11:20.000 And as Steve Bannon, my boss, likes to say, and I think it's absolutely perfect, that the obsession, and this is a particularly American point of view, but I think it's true right throughout the West.

00:11:30.000 It's that our political class has been obsessing with widening trade to the degree that you, the, the, the system, the West has created comfortable,

00:11:44.000 thriving middle classes in China and in India at the expense of decimating your own native blue collar workers in your own backyard. 0.66

00:12:00.000 So we actually have, we've, we've loaded on working families, the double punitive policy goals of flooding the country with, with immigrants. 1.00

00:12:13.000 Right.

00:12:14.000 Most of whom have invited themselves.

00:12:17.000 Um, if, if I could put it gently like that.

00:12:20.000 On the one hand, but exporting the jobs, uh, abroad, which is like the perverse, it's, it's the worst of all situations.

00:12:28.000 And on this point, I have to make a distinction between immigration and I would ask for the invasion, right? 1.00

00:12:37.000 I, I will apologize in advance for anyone, um, of a sensitive disposition, but the word is invasion.

00:12:44.000 That is what is taking place right throughout the West.

00:12:47.000 And the difference between immigrant, your grandparents' immigration.

00:12:50.000 Thank you.

00:12:55.000 The difference between your grandparents' immigration and the invasion that's been taking place over the last 10 years is this.

00:13:02.000 The immigrants of before, more or less, came, they came to assimilate and to contribute.

00:13:10.000 They came regularly and they came because the host country said, we, we have a need here.

00:13:15.000 This is in our advantage.

00:13:18.000 What has happened over the last 10 years is that people are not coming, the invaders are not coming to assimilate or to contribute.

00:13:26.000 They're coming to conquer.

00:13:28.000 Uh, and that is fundamentally the difference.

00:13:30.000 And we have to have the courage to be able to say that publicly in order to put a stop with it.

00:13:35.000 Now, I personally am of the position that we need a moratorium on invasion, even legal, um, immigration. 0.71

00:13:46.000 So, we need this moratorium until at least, and you can say this in Australia, we can say this in Italy, say this in the UK, say this in the States, at least until everybody of your native population who wants a job is able to find one.

00:14:03.000 So, when you have 100% employment, then you can have conversations about who to bring in and to contribute.

00:14:09.000 But you cannot have a situation where you say, well, we'll have the legal set up, the channels set up to apply to come in.

00:14:16.000 But if you fail, then just come on the dinghy and come across anyway and we'll give you a hotel.

00:14:21.000 We'll give you three square meals a day.

00:14:24.000 We'll give you health care.

00:14:26.000 We'll give you the lease.

00:14:27.000 We'll give you the residence permit.

00:14:29.000 And then you bring in all your families and do lagers.

00:14:32.000 That system has to stop, right?

00:14:34.000 We agree on that.

00:14:35.000 That has to stop.

00:14:40.000 And before I close the point specifically of my address today on immigration, can't have this conversation and not mention Islam.

00:14:49.000 Because that's absolutely crucial.

00:14:51.000 In previous years, you have people coming in from all faith backgrounds, Buddhists, Sikhs, Hindus.

00:14:56.000 They came in, they contributed, they put their head down, they assimilated and they contributed.

00:15:03.000 There is something about Islam and the character of Islam itself that is oil and water when it comes to Western values. 1.00

00:15:11.000 They're not coming now, as I said, they're not coming to contribute, they're coming to conquer.

00:15:16.000 And they are coming with the expectation that we will yield to their sensibilities.

00:15:21.000 And they have that expectation because we are being betrayed by our political class.

00:15:27.000 So what are we going to do about it?

00:15:35.000 Well, the contribution that I myself have been involved with is at the Monastery of Trizolti specifically,

00:15:41.000 which is the Academy for the Judeo-Christian West, popularly known in the press as Steve Bannon's Gladiator School.

00:15:50.000 Now, just to say a few words about that, that project itself grew out of something called the Dignitatis Humanae Institute,

00:15:57.000 which I founded in the European Parliament in 2008.

00:16:01.000 And that was really created as a project.

00:16:04.000 And Dominic Cudmore, who is here, was in Valerius Dominic.

00:16:08.000 He was actually sort of a great help in that, sort of what, nearly 20 years ago in getting that project off the ground.

00:16:15.000 And Dominic, I'm real surprised to see you here today.

00:16:17.000 But I'm very happy to give you a hat tip for your contribution on that.

00:16:22.000 And the point about this, why did we set this up?

00:16:25.000 Now, the program has evolved somewhat since 2008.

00:16:31.000 But fundamentally, it was to put the spine back in to Christian democracy.

00:16:36.000 Those were the days when I was slightly more naive and believed that what the centre-right was lacking was spine.

00:16:43.000 In fact, I now realise that that's not true at all.

00:16:46.000 The centre-right is part of the enemy of defending these values because it's performative.

00:16:52.000 It goes through the motions, especially at election time, of dropping the platitudes that we want to hear.

00:16:58.000 And the moment they are elected, they get down to betraying us.

00:17:02.000 And the point about the betrayal is this.

00:17:05.000 I started off with this speech, the note by Toynbee about the 19 out of 21 civilisations dying from within.

00:17:15.000 And I'd like to suggest the specific character of our own civilisation, civilisational decline, isn't that we're being defeated from without.

00:17:26.000 And it's not that we're imploding from spiritual malaise from within.

00:17:32.000 It's that we are being betrayed by our political class.

00:17:36.000 And that is, I think, something novel and unique to the present situation.

00:17:41.000 So, going back 20 years and the beginnings of the project that we have at Trisolte, it was the idea that the reason we were losing was because Christian democracy had lost its spine.

00:17:56.000 In continental Europe, the centre-right is basically Christian Democrats, which is based formally, it's a bit like in Germany, but all across continental Europe.

00:18:10.000 It's really based, or claims to be based, on Catholic social teaching.

00:18:14.000 In the Anglo-sphere, in Australia, in the UK, the equivalent of the positioning on the political spectrum of centre-right isn't so much Christian democratic, because we're not culturally Catholic countries.

00:18:30.000 It's conservatism, which was to take somewhat from what I said at the beginning, the idea of conserving what is good.

00:18:39.000 But if you look at the conservative movement in the UK especially, it conserves absolutely nothing.

00:18:47.000 It goes through the motions, it calls itself conservative, it says, oh, we're the oldest political party in the world, we're non-ideological.

00:18:54.000 But it's imploding now, we are assisting at its suicide, because it has abandoned all pretence of conserving anything, and it's abandoned all pretence of promoting personal liberty.

00:19:08.000 It talks the language of Margaret Thatcher, but in every legislative act and amendment it produces, it is a betrayal of Margaret Thatcher.

00:19:16.000 And its time has come, and its time has come to end, and it is being replaced in the UK, as we speak by Nigel Farage and Reform UK.

00:19:26.000 That broadly is taking off where Margaret Thatcher left off.

00:19:32.000 So, coming back to the Dignitatis Humana Institute is the realization that Christian democracy, the center right, isn't capable of defending those things that we really care so much about. 0.89

00:19:47.000 Culture, values, community, the Judeo-Christian tradition, to use the American term.

00:19:54.000 And one of the chief, you know, I mentioned that the Christian democracy in Europe is based on Catholic social teaching.

00:20:05.000 And I have said I am a Catholic, a bad one, but I am a Catholic.

00:20:11.000 And I have to, don't mistake what I'm going to say now, because I'm going to attack the institutional church, the Vatican.

00:20:19.000 I am not anti-Catholic. I am anti-these people, these sociopaths, who somehow have been able over the last 60 years to hijack the institution of the Catholic Church and run it into the ground.

00:20:34.000 They call me in Italy, they say I am anti-Catholic. 0.96

00:20:37.000 And it's ironic that these people who loathe the Catholic faith, right, they're pellets, they're bishops, they're cardinals.

00:20:46.000 These people who loathe and have made it their lives work to destroy the Catholic Church call me and Steve Bannon and our collaborators anti-Catholic.

00:20:57.000 That is the supreme irony, because we are trying to defend the Christian basis, the Catholic basis of continental Europe.

00:21:07.000 This is something that John Paul II had correctly intuited, that the heart of culture is cult.

00:21:14.000 OK. So you can put, you know, you can defend Western society with the Western liberal tradition, but that comes out of something.

00:21:21.000 It didn't just emerge out of nothing. It comes out of the precepts that arise out of the Christian faith.

00:21:27.000 And if I will make this suggestion, but only very lightly today, if you really want to defend Western civilization,

00:21:33.000 we need to have a more strong and confident and muscular presence of Christianity in the public square.

00:21:40.000 And that is more necessary now than ever, because there is, nature abhors a vacuum.

00:21:46.000 There is, in our public life in the West, the presence of a strong, muscular religious tradition, but it's Islam. 0.76

00:21:53.000 And we at least need to be able to rise ourselves to the level of their game if we're going to try to beat them, right?

00:22:00.000 So I have to name, I have to say that in pretty much all of the existential crises that the West faces today,

00:22:14.000 there is the presence of the Vatican, and that is taking the wrong side on every one of these existential issues,

00:22:21.000 including and especially the invasion.

00:22:24.000 It's behaving, the institutional church, which is, as far as I'm concerned, not the church,

00:22:29.000 that it's not the mystical body of Jesus Christ, not the people who are running the Catholic Church.

00:22:35.000 They are obsessed, and I don't know why, well, I do know because they're getting a lot of money out of this,

00:22:41.000 but they are absolutely obsessed about promoting the invasion.

00:22:46.000 And they use arguments, right?

00:22:49.000 And here's another one of the key things I wanted to say today.

00:22:51.000 One of the things I wanted to say was we should treat human beings as if they have a higher ontological value than roof tiles.

00:22:58.000 The other thing I want to say here in relation to the, and pay attention to Pope Leo,

00:23:04.000 because he is, on the immigration issue, he is, on the invasion issue,

00:23:08.000 he is just as militant as his late, unlamented predecessor, Pope Francis.

00:23:14.000 And the trick of the Vatican here is the promotion of fake virtues, such as tolerance and openness,

00:23:24.000 which are fake virtues, and I'm quite happy to say I'm neither of those things, because they're not virtues.

00:23:29.000 In fact, the opposite of those things, from my perspective, is the virtue.

00:23:33.000 To be closed-minded, I'm going to say, fair enough, call me closed-minded, I'll accept it.

00:23:37.000 Say you want to call me intolerant, fair enough.

00:23:40.000 I'm okay with that, I can live with that.

00:23:42.000 The real false virtue, however, of the Vatican, and its poisonous tentacles throughout public life,

00:23:51.000 and social fabric in the West, is false compassion.

00:23:55.000 Okay?

00:24:02.000 Let me give an example, right, on how I see false compassion being used to the detriment of Western civilization.

00:24:11.000 Third world illegals take away low-paying jobs from our most vulnerable workers, 1.00

00:24:18.000 drive down wages, and exhaust our already overstretched public services.

00:24:24.000 It must take a particular type of psycho to consider the humanity of millions of migrants in the abstract,

00:24:33.000 whom they have never met, and at the same time nurture cold indifference towards actual real people they see struggling every day.

00:24:45.000 Zero compassion for friends, neighbours, family, unable to cope with being priced out of a job,

00:24:54.000 and unable to cope with the ever-increasing tax burden required to pay for constant new arrivals.

00:25:03.000 Of these people, our people, whom our overlords actually do know, they never consider the humanity.

00:25:13.000 What kind of squalid people do this?

00:25:16.000 Sociopaths is the answer, right? 0.98

00:25:19.000 Right?

00:25:20.000 I want to make this point.

00:25:21.000 I cannot make this point enough about the false compassion that is being pushed out by the Vatican,

00:25:26.000 and all the affiliates, the surrogates of the Vatican in political life.

00:25:34.000 Those professional Catholics who say, oh no, you've got to accept all these invaders who are coming in, 0.99

00:25:41.000 because it's the compassionate thing to do.

00:25:43.000 No, no, no.

00:25:46.000 No, it's not.

00:25:47.000 The compassionate thing to do is to show compassion to the people that you know,

00:25:52.000 your friends, your family, your community, and here's why, right?

00:25:55.000 Here's my rule.

00:25:57.000 You cannot trump compassion of the abstract over compassion over the particular.

00:26:03.000 It is imperative on us, and we must insist on this, that our compassion as Christians is merited towards those people that we know.

00:26:12.000 And you cannot throw the people that you know, these are particular individuals that you know,

00:26:18.000 you cannot throw those people under the bus in favour of some abstract entity of millions of people whom you don't know.

00:26:25.000 Who, what kind of person would parade and exhibit their moral superiority over you, who would do that kind of thing?

00:26:36.000 And the only answer is sociopaths.

00:26:38.000 Only a sociopath would be able to prioritise the compassion in the abstract over compassion in the particular.

00:26:47.000 Okay?

00:26:48.000 Well, stand by, folks.

00:26:50.000 We'll be back after this short two-minute commercial break with the rest of the speech.

00:31:22.000 War Room.

00:31:24.000 Here's your host, Stephen K. Mann.

00:31:27.000 So, without any further delay, let's get back into the speech, and I'll see you on the other side in around 20 minutes time.

00:31:39.000 So, moving on, the institutional Catholic Church, then, is really part of the enemy. 0.66

00:31:46.000 And that's why, to come back to our project at Trisulti, it's one of the things that we would like to try to do and suggest that the defense of the Judeo-Christian West, the specifically Christian part of that, the specifically Catholic part of that, falls to us as the laity.

00:32:04.000 We cannot rely on the bishops and the cardinals or the so-called popes to defend the culture that means so much to us because these people are sworn enemies of that, and we have to take that back.

00:32:18.000 And it's something that we say on the show constantly that one of our roles is to empower the laity to take back the running of the church from the people who are running the church into the ground.

00:32:30.000 And I will mention this example once, right, because I say that it's ridiculous that the laity has no right in the nomination of bishops, and that's really how the popes exercise their grip on the worldwide Catholic Church.

00:32:47.000 I say that, and they say, oh, Hanwell, you're just a Protestant, right?

00:32:51.000 You're just a Protestant. 0.97

00:32:52.000 It's up to the pope to appoint the bishops.

00:32:54.000 But it's not in China.

00:32:56.000 In China, the Vatican signed this secret deal, which is so horrific they won't even let us see what's in it, right?

00:33:04.000 But we know that that deal, that Vatican-CCP pact, gives the CCP the authority to nominate Catholic bishops, right?

00:33:14.000 So just let that sink in for a moment.

00:33:19.000 Those of you who are Catholic here, who are pillars of your community, your parish, you go to Mass every Sunday.

00:33:25.000 You have no say in who your bishop is, because that's Protestant. 1.00

00:33:29.000 In China, the generals who spend all day, all their working day, pulling down churches and persecuting Christians, right, they go to the office at the end of the day, and they sign a nomination form for the bishop.

00:33:40.000 That's allowed. That is how much contempt the institutional Catholic Church has for all of us, okay?

00:33:47.000 They have contempt for us, and when we go asking for bread, we don't get a fist, we don't get a stone, we get the middle finger.

00:33:55.000 And that is not acceptable, okay?

00:34:02.000 That's not acceptable, and that is why there is the necessity, not only for movements like what we're doing in Italy, which is the gladiator school for nationalists.

00:34:14.000 It's the reason why the iterations of this populist nationalist movement right across the world, specifically here in Australia, advance, are absolutely essential for the preservation of the country that you look so much.

00:34:30.000 And that brings me here to the closing part of my remarks today, which is that those of us who come from continental Europe, from the UK, we have a role on the world stage now when it comes to defending the Judeo-Christian West.

00:34:47.000 That role is primarily to warn other nations who haven't yet followed this road to the very end, like Australia, like America.

00:35:00.000 This is where that road leads to, do not follow it, right?

00:35:04.000 Because if there's any doubt, if you believe that the platitudes that are pushed out by a uniparty political class, you'll think that it's all peace and harmony.

00:35:15.000 I was going through, and it's not true, right?

00:35:18.000 I'm just going to throw this one out here, because I love this story.

00:35:21.000 It really illustrates all that is wrong with continental Europe.

00:35:24.000 In Germany, a few years ago, there was this asylum seeker, an Iraqi, in his 30s, who raped a 13-year-old boy in the swimming pool, the public baths, right? 1.00

00:35:38.000 And his defence was that he had a sexual emergency. 0.92

00:35:47.000 That was his defence.

00:35:48.000 And I think he got like a five-year prison term sentence or something like that.

00:35:53.000 I don't know what he actually said.

00:35:55.000 That, for me, just epitomises everything that is wrong with people who are choosing for themselves to come into the West. 1.00

00:36:02.000 So don't believe, don't give heed to your sociopathic overlords who will call you intolerant or lacking in compassion or xenophobic or what have you.

00:36:13.000 That kind of thing, if you look in the European press, that kind of story is literally routine.

00:36:19.000 It's happening every day, right across the West.

00:36:22.000 Australia has already started down that path, but it is not nearly as destroyed, as irrecoverable as it is in the UK.

00:36:36.000 So, invasion, then, is the beating heart of the populist nationalist movement right across the world.

00:36:47.000 It's the reason why what these political parties are like, the AFD in Germany or VOX in Spain or Fratelli d'Italia, which I don't have much time for in Italy.

00:36:57.000 All these parties termed conventionally far-right, one like 2.5% ten years ago, and they're now on 25% right across Europe.

00:37:08.000 They're not far-right, right?

00:37:09.000 A lot of these parties, like Marine Le Pen in France with the Rassemblement National, that's a left-wing political party.

00:37:16.000 But the one on everything is a left-wing political party.

00:37:20.000 On every metric, apart from immigration.

00:37:23.000 It's the immigration point which is the dividing line now between the populist nationalist iterations, of which advance here in Australia is the local, the national manifestation,

00:37:37.000 and all the uniparty, all the other political parties.

00:37:41.000 It's the immigration that is the one issue. 0.90

00:37:43.000 I'll give an example of how badly the centre-right is betraying its people by looking at Portugal.

00:37:49.000 Last week, they had the presidential election over there, and they had the runoff between Chegas, which is the far-right political party, and the socialists.

00:38:00.000 And the centre-right, the Christian Democrats, told its voters to vote for the guy on the left, to block the guy on the far-right.

00:38:08.000 The guy on the far-right, not Andre Ventura, not a fascist, not remotely, anti-immigration.

00:38:16.000 This is the one issue that they, for some reason, that they are absolutely destroyed.

00:38:21.000 The French call the concept ethnic substitution or ethnic replacement.

00:38:25.000 I don't know how accurate that is in reality, but if you went along assuming that that is the case and that is the objective,

00:38:32.000 you probably wouldn't go too far off the mark.

00:38:35.000 I want to say on the show that we call the Uniparty, our political masters,

00:38:44.000 the term we use on Steve Bannon's wall is our sociopathic overlords. 0.96

00:38:48.000 I hope I indicated at the beginning why I think these people are sociopaths.

00:38:53.000 If I can just divert my closing words here just to indicate that these people are fundamentally behind the betrayal

00:39:03.000 that I mentioned earlier as being the reason for the demise of Western civilisation.

00:39:09.000 If that sounds like conspiracy theory or a bit extreme, cast your minds back to the pandemic.

00:39:16.000 Look how they looked us in the eye and lied to us about the nature of the virus.

00:39:24.000 They are still lying to us today and all they can do is gaslight us about it.

00:39:32.000 If you think it's extreme to say that they were lying over the virus, look how they were lying over the vaccine.

00:39:38.000 And how they are lying to this day saying that it was perfectly effective and perfectly safe.

00:39:44.000 They were gaslighting us. They're gaslighting us today.

00:39:47.000 I know more people who died of that vaccine person.

00:39:50.000 I personally know more people who died of that vaccine than I know who died of the virus.

00:39:54.000 The vaccine was far more dangerous.

00:39:56.000 These are the people who are running the planet, right?

00:40:00.000 You cannot trust them.

00:40:02.000 They will lie because they hate us. 1.00

00:40:06.000 These people are sociopaths who fundamentally hate us. 0.93

00:40:09.000 They're never going to come and tell you that they hate you. 0.90

00:40:11.000 Just look at the policies that they're enacting when they have the power.

00:40:15.000 So I've said we've been betrayed by a uniparty political class.

00:40:20.000 I've also said especially that we have been betrayed by the establishment centre-right political parties.

00:40:28.000 Perhaps I close on this remark that, and this is the importance at Trisulti with what we're doing with this,

00:40:35.000 with our Gladiator School for Nationalists.

00:40:37.000 We're trying to create this network between the worldwide populist nationalist iterations,

00:40:44.000 specifically, and people say, well, why are you doing that?

00:40:47.000 Why aren't you working with the Christian democratic parties?

00:40:50.000 It's because it's these, and I use the term only because people know what it means,

00:40:55.000 not because I think that these movements are far-right,

00:40:58.000 but it's these parties around the world that are called far-right,

00:41:03.000 and most seriously concerned about the defence in real terms,

00:41:08.000 not in performative gestures,

00:41:10.000 but the defence of the Judeo-Christian basis of Western civilisation.

00:41:14.000 So I'll close then just to reiterate the main themes of what I said today.

00:41:19.000 I mentioned Toynbee.

00:41:20.000 I mentioned that what is particular about our civilisational decline

00:41:24.000 is the fact that we've been betrayed by our political class.

00:41:27.000 I've said that human beings, culture, values, faith, communities are more important than roof tiles.

00:41:35.000 I don't think Australia is obsessive about planning zone regulations and what have you,

00:41:42.000 but there's always something, right?

00:41:47.000 You Australians are worth more than buildings and shopfronts, okay? 1.00

00:41:53.000 So if you want to obsess to protect and conserve shopfronts, houses, roof lines and all the rest of it,

00:42:01.000 that's fine, that's great, right?

00:42:03.000 But the people who live beneath those roofs are more important

00:42:06.000 and at least are worthy of some protection and energy from the state into protecting.

00:42:12.000 I mentioned that the invasion is the existential threat to culture.

00:42:16.000 I've mentioned the tyranny of false compassion.

00:42:20.000 I've said that the centre-right is responsible for this systemic failure to protect the integrity of the culture.

00:42:29.000 And that's why I would commend to you advance here in Italy.

00:42:34.000 Finally, I said I work for Steve Bannon's War Room.

00:42:38.000 I'll just give two quick shout-outs to two things I'm very much involved with

00:42:43.000 if you want to be more involved on an international level with what you're doing.

00:42:49.000 One of them is the social media platform Getter, G-E-T-T-R, 0.99

00:42:55.000 which is very much the MAGA social media platform of choice in the circles that I'm in.

00:43:04.000 And the other thing I will mention to you is Real America's Voice, which is available on satellite.

00:43:10.000 RAV, which is the network that pushed out Charlie Kirk's show.

00:43:14.000 And that's the network that pushes our show as well.

00:43:17.000 So I would commend both of those to you, Getter and Real America's Voice.

00:43:21.000 And Ben Harnwell, thank you very much for your time and your attention.

00:43:24.000 Ben, I'll get you to stay there.

00:43:30.000 Yeah, thank you so much.

00:43:33.000 An incredibly thought-provoking talk from your view about forced compassion

00:43:43.000 to what you were touching on just the conclusion there with your view on the centre right around the world.

00:43:48.000 Now, we do have time for a couple of questions for Ben before we need to move to our next session.

00:43:55.000 So if anybody in the audience would like to ask Ben a question,

00:44:01.000 we've got a couple of advanced representatives up the front here.

00:44:05.000 Please put up your hand and we can go to Ben for some answers.

00:44:11.000 But I might just begin, Ben, first of all.

00:44:15.000 You mentioned the centre right really doing us a disservice.

00:44:19.000 I'm interested in your view about our country and the centre right.

00:44:23.000 I'm not sure how much you know, how much you're aware of our centre right here.

00:44:27.000 But what is your message to the centre right in Australia,

00:44:31.000 to the Liberal and National parties, about how they should take the country forward?

00:44:36.000 Well, looking at the Conservative movement here in Costa Rica,

00:44:41.000 the only thing I will say is I think Tony Abbott is superb and an absolute hero

00:44:46.000 on defending pretty much everything that I've said in my speech today.

00:44:49.000 But he's one person. I don't know how much the party is behind him on that.

00:44:55.000 And I sort of think, I would say that now today most of what he championed when he was leader of the opposition,

00:45:02.000 when he was Prime Minister, is now being represented here in this hall rather than by his party.

00:45:10.000 That point you mentioned, Joe, is absolutely essential.

00:45:14.000 The centre right political movement has betrayed us and has been betraying us for decades.

00:45:20.000 The immigration, the invasion in continental Europe hasn't primarily taken place under the left.

00:45:27.000 It's taken primarily place under the centre right. Angela Merkel in Germany has almost single-handedly done more. 0.97

00:45:36.000 Can I say this? That she did more damage to the fabric of her country than the Nazis did that Hitler did 80 years ago. 0.80

00:45:45.000 She has really damaged the long-term viability of her country with what she did.

00:45:50.000 And she's centre right, she's a Christian Democrat. And that is what I mean when I say betrayal. 0.98

00:45:57.000 Because no word, ten years, we had the ten year anniversary of that, like a month or two ago.

00:46:03.000 No word of apology, no word of regret. It's astonishing.

00:46:09.000 Yeah.

00:46:10.000 And that's why the AFD is on 25% in Germany. That's why the German state is calling the AFD,

00:46:16.000 trying to get them legally prescribed so we won't be able to stand in an election.

00:46:20.000 They fear the people now, and they're right to fear the people.

00:46:24.000 And if they fear the people, they try to suppress the AFD in what? In the name of democracy.

00:46:30.000 Yeah. All right. We might go down over yonder. Thank you.

00:46:35.000 Sir, you have the floor.

00:46:37.000 Thank you.

00:46:39.000 You talk about the introduction through immigration of this culture which kind of hates Western culture. 1.00

00:46:46.000 But we also have this problem, I think, with the kind of extreme left in Western society

00:46:51.000 and in Australia that manifests itself in the Greens.

00:46:55.000 What is your thinking on how to address that?

00:46:58.000 Because if we stop immigration today, that side of the extreme left seems to be growing,

00:47:04.000 particularly very attractive amongst young people.

00:47:07.000 I think what we're seeing is a widespread – it's a great question – a widespread disillusionment now,

00:47:14.000 on behalf of the people of the conventionally established political parties.

00:47:20.000 And, you know, it's sort of symmetrical.

00:47:24.000 People on the centre onwards towards the right are losing faith in their establishment centre-right representation

00:47:33.000 because it's not centre-right.

00:47:35.000 It's globalist, basically, and are seeking alternatives elsewhere, like in advance.

00:47:42.000 And it's the same thing that's taking place on the left as well.

00:47:44.000 They're realising that the centre-left isn't particularly – look, if you –

00:47:49.000 it's the centre-right.

00:47:50.000 Ideologically, I mean, I just said that the great – that the invasion is taking place under the centre-right.

00:47:55.000 Politically, though, it tends to benefit more of the centre-left because it's providing them with voters on the line.

00:48:02.000 To be absolutely cynical about it, it's providing them with people who will use the state's services.

00:48:08.000 They're not filling the country with people who want to stand on their own two feet and, as I said, to assimilate and to contribute.

00:48:14.000 They're filling – the left is filling the country with its own client base.

00:48:21.000 But it is weird because, from a left-wing perspective, if you are motivated by protecting the worker, the labourer, the blue-collar worker, your industrial base,

00:48:33.000 why are you trying to – as a political party that says that you're on the left –

00:48:38.000 why are you trying to fill the country with labour, with cheap labour that's only going to drive wages down?

00:48:45.000 Why would you do that to your own supporter base?

00:48:48.000 So, of course, the disillusionment is taking place on the left as well because they realise that they're being betrayed.

00:48:54.000 Just as the centre-right people – and I think everyone in this room is centre-right.

00:48:57.000 I don't think there's anyone here that is what the media would call far-right.

00:49:04.000 I think the same thing is taking place on the left.

00:49:06.000 People are going to alternatives because they realise that they have no interests that will be protected and defended with any passion.

00:49:15.000 You'll get the performative gestures by the centre-left iterations.

00:49:21.000 That's why they're seeking alternatives there.

00:49:23.000 All right. Thank you, sir. One more question. Madam, down here. 1.00

00:49:27.000 Thank you so much. I really identify with what you said about being betrayed.

00:49:33.000 I feel very betrayed by our Liberal Party, you know, with the COVID lockdowns and net zero and all of that.

00:49:42.000 It has made me very, very angry.

00:49:45.000 Could you speak to – about a year ago, there was a video of these Muslim men, all wearing black, who were in Melbourne and they encircled the cathedral there.

00:50:00.000 That's – I mean, I see that as pure intimidation, where they were praying, or I don't know what they were doing, but they encircled the cathedral.

00:50:10.000 Can you – can you speak to that, please?

00:50:13.000 Yeah, how dare they? Right? How dare they do it? How dare they do it and how dare they be allowed to do it? Right?

00:50:23.000 Because we wouldn't be able to do that over there. Right? At the very least, we should be insisting on reciprocity. Okay? At the very least.

00:50:39.000 That is to say, we'll show you, we'll extend the same welcome to Muslims in the West as Muslims extend to Christians over there. Or not? Well, what's wrong with that?

00:50:54.000 Reciprocity has to be the starting point now. You're never going to get that from the centre-right.

00:50:59.000 You certainly won't get it from the centre-left. But you will get it for these new movements that are occupying the space that was abandoned by the centre-right,

00:51:08.000 as the centre-right pivoted to betraying its own people. So I couldn't agree – you know, I don't know if that answers you.

00:51:16.000 My point is, it's outrage. But it's what I said, right? These people aren't coming to assimilate. They're not coming to contribute.

00:51:24.000 They are coming to conquer. They're coming because they expect us to yield to them and their sensibilities. 0.88

00:51:31.000 And they expect us to yield to them and their sensibilities because they've been encouraged to expect that by the people who've ushered them into the country. It's disgusting. 0.98

00:51:42.000 Yeah. A great night to finish on.

00:51:46.000 So there you go, folks. You've just heard probably the most spicy speech I've ever given in my life.

00:51:54.000 We'll get that out on our various social media channels. Do post your comments on Getter, especially at Harnwell, where I've read every single comment that's ever been posted.

00:52:05.000 That's it, folks. Show's over. We'll be back with our Standard Christian Show on Wednesday of next week.
