00:05:05.960And 30 of his schoolmates from this private school he went to in the late 70s, early 80s, came out and have been dropping a dime on this guy, saying what he said.
00:05:19.560All these awful things he said back when he was a student.
00:13:02.760And we're back at Heathrow Terminal No. 2.
00:13:08.260And sitting beside me, just by great coincidence, without any planning whatsoever, is E, who, as it turns out, has also been in Britain for the past few days.
00:13:34.740One person who, I should be careful with the same way about killing in politics, but anyway, is not being killed in the polls, let's put it that way, is Nigel Farage.
00:13:48.260Who is the leader of, you know, which is a foreign-sounding name, that is Nigel, is the leader of Reform UK here.
00:13:56.680He has been ahead in the polls by a significant amount, ahead of the governing Labour Party here in the United Kingdom, to the astonishment of many, including maybe Nigel.
00:14:08.420But in the past few days, a scandal has emerged.
00:14:11.720He was at a private school for boys called Dolwich in the late 70s and early 80s, and is, according to 30 of his schoolmates, not all of whom are Labour supporters,
00:14:24.900said some extraordinary, awful things about Jews and Southeast Asians and many people.
00:14:32.280Things like Hitler was right and joking about the gas chambers and using the N-word.
00:14:39.060He's been unable to put this fire out.
00:16:14.620Do you think people in Britain, given that you've been here for the past few days and talking to Brits, do you think that they're going to let Farage get away with it like the Americans did with Trump?
00:16:43.020To a, you know, not that one is worse than the other, but people take racist comments potentially more seriously than they do misogynistic.
00:17:07.440Again, I don't want to generalize, but I would suggest that most Brits, the ones that I actually know, but also in general conversation with them here, they do take the comments of their political leaders with a slight more seriousness than perhaps their American counterparts might.
00:17:26.120Who might sort of pass them off as, oh, you know, he didn't really mean it, or perhaps.
00:17:33.400By the way, this is the Kinsella cast.
00:17:34.860So we welcome generalization as much as possible.
00:17:38.740Um, so on that, uh, moving to a slightly happier topic.
00:17:42.580I hope Farage gets richly what he deserves, but we shall see.
00:17:46.740Um, what has been your experience this week?
