00:00:00.000 Hello, my friends. The UK has a new prime minister, or at least the old one is on his
00:00:04.660 way out pretty quick. Keir Starmer, the authoritarian censor, is done. But the guy who replaces him is
00:00:11.400 probably just as bad. We'll go deep on that. But first, let me invite you to become a subscriber

00:00:30.000 Tonight, Keir Starmer is gone as the UK's Prime Minister,
00:00:47.980 but is his successor any different?
00:00:51.280 It's June 22nd, and this is The Ezra LeVant Show.
00:00:54.140 You're fighting for freedom!
00:00:55.280 Well, if you want the world's news, you can wait for the news to happen.
00:01:13.460 Or in this case, you can go to Donald Trump's social media platform.
00:01:18.240 Yesterday, Donald Trump announced that Keir Starmer, the UK prime minister, had confirmed
00:01:23.700 He was stepping down today. The final humiliation from Donald Trump, who had basically been at some sort of political war, a moral war, a sense of humor war, a social media war against Q Starmer from the very beginning.
00:01:38.520 um his successor is already in place Andy Burnham is the name he was the mayor of Manchester who
00:01:46.700 just won a by-election about a week ago and he's universally uh been anointed by the party to take
00:01:54.120 over from Keir Starmer no general election he just won a by-election a week ago it really reminds me
00:01:59.440 of how Mark Carney just took over from Justin Trudeau and they had some internal process and
00:02:04.780 wham bam thank you ma'am it was done now just like Trudeau was awful Keir Starmer was awful but it's
00:02:11.700 incredible that he got as low in the polls as he did in just two years Trudeau took longer than
00:02:17.020 that Starmer had a really bad social style at least to me he always seemed plastic and fake
00:02:25.300 there was nothing real underneath there he looked sort of stunned the whole time or maybe that was
00:02:31.100 me projecting on him that he would just brazen things out. It obviously didn't work. He had the
00:02:37.220 lowest polls of any recorded prime minister. Keir Starmer mentioned me, not by name, but a few weeks
00:02:43.880 ago, actually more than a month ago, when I was due to go to the United Kingdom to attend and
00:02:48.680 observe one of Tommy Robinson's rallies. Keir Starmer announced that me and about a dozen
00:02:54.660 others would simply be banned because we were friends with Tommy Robinson. Here's his speech
00:03:00.660 on that and you'll see it again on saturday at a march designed to confront and intimidate
00:03:06.740 this diversity and this diverse country that is why this labor government will block far-right
00:03:14.020 agitators from traveling to britain for that event because we will not allow people to come to the
00:03:19.460 uk to threaten our communities and spread hate on our street yeah it's sort of crazy i mean he
00:03:25.780 like so many other politicians is a lawyer but you know there's a lawyer there's a certain way
00:03:31.080 of thinking as a lawyer you think about what rights are what powers are what limits are i mean
00:03:36.600 i think thinking like a lawyer can be a good thing but there's also a terrible way to think
00:03:40.920 like a lawyer which is to over lawyer things and to come up with excuses for doing or not doing
00:03:46.720 things and that's really what he was he used to be the head of the crown prosecution service the
00:03:51.860 top prosecutor. And you could really see that in how he used those powers. For example, he did his
00:03:57.340 best never to prosecute rape gangs, but he would sue into submission any conservatives or right
00:04:04.620 wingers who criticized, for example, the Islamification of society. It was a real two-tier
00:04:09.420 system. In the end, he only had tears for himself, though. He had no tears for any of the other
00:04:17.720 tragedies of his tenure just for himself. Take a look at him crying for the real victim here,
00:04:24.400 Keir Starmer. When I leave the biggest job in the country, I shall spend more time on the most
00:04:31.460 important job. Being the best husband I can to my fantastic wife, Vic, who has been a rock by my side
00:04:39.920 through good times and bad
00:04:42.220 and being the best dad I can
00:04:44.880 to my beautiful children
00:04:46.760 who are my pride and my joy.
00:04:50.600 Thank you very much.
00:04:52.280 Well, I know that I've talked about Keir Starmer before,
00:04:55.040 probably more than most Canadian journalists
00:04:56.900 because I used to travel to the UK
00:04:58.820 before I was banned from going there.
00:05:01.620 And so just out of natural interest,
00:05:03.640 I started following him.
00:05:05.180 And holy smokes, the first thing to know,
00:05:08.200 I made a list of 10 things, and I could probably come up with 20,
00:05:11.300 but here's 10 things I want to tell you about Keir Starmer.
00:05:14.500 The first is, I think he destroyed the Royal Navy.
00:05:17.740 Now, obviously, it didn't happen all in the last two years,
00:05:20.500 but the Royal Navy used to be more dominant than any other in the world.
00:05:24.380 It ruled the world.
00:05:25.780 It enabled the British Empire to, you know,
00:05:28.560 they used to say the sun never sets on the British Empire.
00:05:31.000 There was actually a period of time when there was a law in the UK
00:05:34.740 that the UK had to have more naval ships than the next two world's navies combined.
00:05:41.000 That's how big it was.
00:05:42.800 Well, now it's either all in the dock or being refitted or maintained.
00:05:48.180 Only one ship was seaworthy enough to be dispatched
00:05:51.820 to the recent conflagration in the Mediterranean in the Gulf.
00:05:55.740 One ship.
00:05:57.140 And it broke down.
00:05:58.680 This happened under its watch.
00:05:59.760 In fact, just a couple of weeks ago,
00:06:01.000 a couple of cabinet ministers in charge of the military just resigned
00:06:04.720 not in disgrace the opposite saying that it would be a disgrace to continue on imagine that
00:06:10.880 a defense minister resigning because the prime minister would not fund the military just
00:06:16.140 incredible i suppose the second thing i think about uh these are in no particular order is
00:06:21.720 i mentioned before the islamification and two-tier nature of the law because of the growing and
00:06:28.800 massive demographic of muslims in the uk they've introduced a blasphemy law it hasn't passed yet
00:06:34.700 but they propose to make it illegal to criticize Islam. 0.81
00:06:38.800 Cousin marriage is being legalized in the UK
00:06:42.000 because it's such a prominent feature of Pakistani Muslim Brits.
00:06:47.280 Sharia law actually rules today and in many places,
00:06:49.960 and we did talk at length about the rape gangs that were covered up,
00:06:53.720 in part by Keir Starmer.
00:06:55.700 I think there's a real contrast.
00:06:57.420 There's so many contrasts.
00:06:58.720 There was a mum named Lucy Connolly,
00:07:01.160 who very briefly, after some children were stabbed by a Muslim extremist,
00:07:06.300 talked about she wouldn't care if their migrant hotel burnt down.
00:07:11.000 She wasn't calling for it to happen.
00:07:12.540 She just said she wouldn't care.
00:07:14.380 That was only up for an hour or two before she took it down.
00:07:17.680 She was sentenced to years in prison versus, for example,
00:07:21.740 these brutes at the Manchester airport who beat the living daylights
00:07:26.200 out of police, including a woman police, 0.99
00:07:28.040 And, you know, two levels of justice for two different criminals and two different sets of victims.
00:07:34.840 There's other weird things going on.
00:07:36.460 Like there's a group of islands called the Chagos Islands or Diego Garcia, as Americans know them.
00:07:42.640 There is a key military base there that the U.S. uses, including for its B-1 bombers.
00:07:48.540 In some bizarre third worldism, Keir Starmer wanted to give those NATO bases, give that Chagos Islands back to, I think it was Malaysia or Indonesia, I've forgotten the country, and to pay them billions of dollars.
00:08:03.740 To give them back the land for this key military base and to pay them.
00:08:09.120 What?
00:08:10.360 This kind of third worldism. 0.57
00:08:11.880 They were even contemplating slave reparations.
00:08:14.600 The British Empire, which ended slavery as we know it.
00:08:18.540 That's how crazy it was. Other things that we've been copying here in Canada, for example, Keir Starmer proposed to have Internet ID for adults.
00:08:26.540 And he said it was for kids. But the way to sort kids and adults is to test everyone's age.
00:08:31.540 So you would have to sign in before using the Internet as if they wouldn't track you.
00:08:36.400 It's a bad idea. We're copying here. And, you know, I really don't think that there's a lot of consistency.
00:08:41.880 See, the same Keir Starmer is fine with children undergoing transgender surgery, 0.50
00:08:47.800 but he won't let a teenager on social media. 0.98
00:08:50.660 By the way, about 30 Brits a day are arrested for things they write on Facebook or Twitter.
00:08:59.520 30 a day.
00:09:00.560 That's according to the Times of London.
00:09:02.000 I hate to say it.
00:09:03.000 That is a larger number than we know of in Russia or China.
00:09:06.520 Now, there may be things happening that we don't know about.
00:09:08.920 But seriously, 30 a day, that's thousands, 10,000 a year.
00:09:14.420 By the way, a lot of this is fueled by demographics.
00:09:17.000 I mentioned that before.
00:09:18.340 Every day, boats cross over from France bringing refugees.
00:09:22.660 But obviously, you're not a refugee if you're coming from France.
00:09:25.760 France is a delightful place.
00:09:27.540 Maybe their welfare system isn't quite as generous as in the UK, but that doesn't make you a refugee.
00:09:32.260 The law of refugees is you must seek asylum in the first country that you reach that is safe. 0.59
00:09:39.780 France is not an unsafe place, but Keir Starmer insists on accepting those migrants. 0.56
00:09:45.420 The lawyer in him says the European Convention on Human Rights forces him to do that.
00:09:49.780 That's obviously not true.
00:09:52.040 And like I say, with the Islamification of the demographics of the UK, other policies tend to change too. 0.97
00:09:57.380 For example, the U.K., which for a generation was a key supporter of Israel, now declared under Keir Starmer, just like our Mark Carney did, support for the sovereignty of Palestine. 0.97
00:10:08.500 And he did that when Hamas was still holding hostages in the Gaza Strip.
00:10:13.780 Just incredible, again, for domestic reasons.
00:10:16.700 There's other policies that are just inscrutable, like his decision to attack farmers and declare an inheritance tax.
00:10:23.580 So if a son would take over a farm from his father, they would have to sell the farm in order to get the required liquid funds to pay the debt.
00:10:34.120 Just absolutely a war on farmers, a war on food, similar to the war on cheap energy, amongst the highest electricity prices in Europe because of their insane net zero schemes, banning fracking and investing in uneconomic windmills.
00:10:51.280 Another example, just to throw one at you, is the war against pensioners.
00:10:55.380 Why would you do that?
00:10:56.720 Related to the relief they would get over fuel subsidies in the winter, just very strange.
00:11:02.920 In recent days, you're not even going to believe me when I say he said that the Brits needed to kill hundreds of wild ponies.
00:11:11.600 I mean, I suppose after the list of things I just went through, I went through about 10 different terrible policies that cumulatively have alienated the vast majority of Brits over the last two years.
00:11:23.600 And just on his way out the door, he said, what could drive my numbers down lower?
00:11:28.920 I know. 1.00
00:11:30.300 Let's kill the ponies. 1.00
00:11:32.040 Keir Starmer, he will be forgotten as quickly as he got to it. 1.00
00:11:38.320 He's forgotten already.
00:11:39.720 He's forgotten already.
00:11:40.600 a man who left no imprint in society other than making the world's problems a little bit worse.
00:11:47.260 Stay with us. We'll talk with Jack Hadfield more about this subject next.
00:11:59.360 Well, Keir Starmer, one of the worst prime ministers in recent British history.
00:12:04.560 I mean, I don't know my history going back centuries, but he's certainly the worst.
00:12:08.240 I would say far worse than Neville Chamberlain, who made a catastrophic strategic decision,
00:12:14.080 but at least conducted himself with some grace and some self-awareness.
00:12:18.620 Keir Starmer, the most unpopular prime minister in recent history,
00:12:22.440 and one of the worst in terms of his policy.
00:12:24.520 Who cares about his popularity, I suppose, other than he was an utter failure at everything.
00:12:29.400 And I'm glad he was, because some of his plans would have impoverished,
00:12:33.240 censored, and destroyed the United Kingdom.
00:12:35.120 or what's left of it. Joining me now is someone who loves the United Kingdom and I want his input
00:12:40.840 on whether or not the change to Andy Burnham is a good thing or a bad thing. Joining us now,
00:12:47.440 Jack Hadfield. You can follow him online at Jack Haddish. Jack, great to see you again.
00:12:52.520 Last we were speaking about, we knew that Keir Starmer was in danger, but there was a key
00:12:58.280 by-election in makerfield um where the mayor of manchester one of the great cities of the uk
00:13:07.640 ran and it was basically putting in a new player to rescue the labor party from the
00:13:13.720 disaster reminds me what happened in canada when mark carney was put in to save the party
00:13:18.840 from justin trudeau's plunging popularity tell us a little bit about the events of the last few days
00:13:23.880 about who Andy Burnham is and what this means for freedom and prosperity in the UK there's a lot
00:13:30.900 there but let's hear it yeah so the by-election happened in Makerfield which is just south of
00:13:38.680 Wigan which is a town in the northwest of greater Manchester historically in the Lancashire area
00:13:44.080 and so Andy Burnham ran in that seat he was only able to run in that seat because the former Labour
00:13:50.140 MP, Joss Simons, specifically stepped down so that Burnham, who, as you said, was the mayor of Greater
00:13:56.840 Manchester, was then able to get a seat back in the Commons and challenge Keir Starmer for the
00:14:03.500 leadership. Now, looking at the previous polls on this, now, while this had been a Labour seat for,
00:14:09.340 you know, the past 100 or so years, basically ever since it's been created and the previous
00:14:13.860 seats that came before it um the polls at the time basically had reform winning by around 50
00:14:20.580 percent of the vote if there were to be a general election in makerfield at the time and i think if
00:14:26.800 there was any other candidate in any other time reform would win in makerfield now what what
00:14:33.580 happened on thursday night where the results came in on friday morning at 3 a.m um so funny enough
00:14:40.300 I actually got the results for both Reform and Restore about right.
00:14:43.560 Restore got fewer than 7% of the votes, which is the Righteous Challenger Party to Reform.
00:14:51.060 Reform then got 35% of the vote, which was around 5% under where I predicted them, which is around 40.
00:14:58.180 But Burnham completely smashed it.
00:15:00.900 He got about 55% of the vote.
00:15:03.940 Now, there are three factors why this happened.
00:15:07.400 And I think the first factor, the first two factors I think we understood already. The first one was that he's pretty popular already in the North and people wanted to sort of give him a chance. You know, there is that there, you know, give him a chance, you know, to start running things. So there's that factor.
00:15:24.300 Factor number two was the coalescence of an anti-reform tactical voting from the left.
00:15:32.040 So basically the Tories, the Green Party, the Lib Dems basically got no votes and all of the sort of left wing vote went to Labour.
00:15:38.640 Now, and the third key factor, which is, I think, why his vote numbers were completely underestimated by the polls and by everybody else and by myself included, is that people wanted to get Starmer out immediately.
00:15:52.900 you know this is what reform had been running on their campaign in the local elections was vote
00:15:57.500 reform get starmer out and i think that's why um because keir starmer was such an unpopular prime
00:16:02.600 minister and they saw by putting the burnham in right now you know actually this is the way to
00:16:07.680 just you know chop off the starmerite head immediately in one swift blow i think there
00:16:12.940 are quite a few people who apparently said on the doors that i'll be voting reform in the general
00:16:16.600 but voted wanted to vote labor now specifically frandy burnham to get rid of keir starmer and
00:16:21.580 obviously that's what we've seen happen this morning you know Keir Starmer crying at the podium
00:16:26.000 uh saying how proud he was and everything he's done and um it looks like it's going to be a
00:16:31.260 correlation for Andy Byrne as Prime Minister West Streeting who was expected to challenge
00:16:35.720 Keir Starmer for the Labour leadership and suggested he had done before um has after after
00:16:41.640 Keir Starmer has stepped down uh this afternoon said that he would be backing Andy Byrne for PM
00:16:46.340 so it doesn't seem like we might even not have a Labour leadership contest it seems like it might
00:16:50.580 It'd be a straight up coronation for the king in the north.
00:16:54.080 Well, you know, when Justin Trudeau was replaced unceremoniously by his own party, a party that he had led for a decade, it was as if he was immediately forgotten.
00:17:06.520 To use the phrase by George Orwell, he was put in the memory hole.
00:17:10.360 Everything about him was forgotten, erased, because he was so personally unpopular and associated with so many bad things.
00:17:16.940 It took he was like the liver of the body for the Liberal Party in Canada.
00:17:22.620 It took him 10 years to get that toxic. Keir Starmer did it in a fraction of the time.
00:17:28.340 Are there any significant differences in terms of policy between Keir Starmer and Andy Brunham?
00:17:34.580 I don't know that much about Andy Brunham other than, like you say, he was the mayor of Manchester.
00:17:38.480 And, of course, you know, he's a labor leader, so he has left his views.
00:17:46.380 But on some of the signature items for Keir Starmer, censorship, government ID to get on the Internet, his war against conservatives, his prosecution of anyone who says mean tweets, his belief in net zero.
00:18:08.240 I mean, I suppose this is sort of a standard leftist menu. Is there any important difference, Jack, between the new incoming PM Andy Burnham and Keir Starmer?
00:18:20.640 Is there any important difference? I think no. And now Burnham has been presumed to be someone that's more on the left of the economy than Starmer.
00:18:28.400 Starmer is considered to someone who's been a bit more to the right sort of of the Labour Party.
00:18:33.080 Now, Burnham has said many things about wanting to rejoin the EU, wanting to break the fiscal rules and basically bring in more borrowing.
00:18:41.600 I think what we'll see probably from Burnham is more of a borrowing and redistribution of wealth to the north of England, the peripheries outside from the southeast,
00:18:51.060 from the main sort of productive areas of the country, sucking out productive capital and giving it to the peripheries of the country.
00:18:59.800 probably and that that's sort of summing up and what manchesterism uh is um but on on that you
00:19:05.860 know he's actually been flipping back and forth multiple times on many of the things um he cares
00:19:11.140 about like just to get elected he is right now all things to all men one of the biggest crucial
00:19:15.480 differences sort of before the by-election uh that with people on the right here were worried
00:19:20.280 about was that um keir starmer uh with shabana mahoud as his sub-secretary was going to put in
00:19:26.180 ilr reforms that's indefinite leave to remain meaning that people would have to wait 10 years
00:19:31.540 not five years in order to wipe in order to apply for british citizenship and this would apply to
00:19:36.860 the boris wave who'd come over so we were worried that if burnham would come in and then chop chop
00:19:43.060 away at those reforms that would be a disaster and people who are who are the boris wave now
00:19:47.580 would be able to get uh citizenship and you know it would could be a disaster on that front but
00:19:52.580 There seem suggestions that he's going to keep Mahmood as his same secretary.
00:19:57.100 And even before the by-election, just a week or so before the by-election, he said, no, actually, I think I think I wouldn't scrap the ILR reforms.
00:20:03.420 So he's been back and forth on it. So, you know, he seemed at the face of it to be the left wing of Keir Starmer.
00:20:11.220 I think he may be slightly economically, slightly more redistributed, slightly more welfarist.
00:20:15.880 But on all of the key issues, I don't think he will be.
00:20:18.380 And obviously he's been able to get able to be so popular as a mayor of Greater Manchester by just doing things like nationalizing and taking the public the public transport network under public ownership, for example, and doing these things that you can just easily do and yet to be popular as mayor.
00:20:35.500 But because I think, frankly, his policies and the way you will govern will be substantively have no difference between Keir Starmer, that his popularity will plummet.
00:20:45.500 It's already starting to go down from the by-election.
00:20:48.080 So I think within six months or so of him being prime minister, his honeymoon period will be over and will be hated as much, if not more so, than Starmer is now by the general public.
00:20:58.560 Now, one of the former Labour leaders, Jeremy Corbyn, was accused of being far too chummy with Islamism, and he was credibly accused of being anti-Semitic himself.
00:21:08.460 And this was all pre-October 7th. 0.55
00:21:10.920 But Keir Starmer, who supposedly was to be more moderate than that, granted his declaration of sovereignty to Palestine, even when Hamas was still holding hostages.
00:21:23.620 And although he's the target of so many protests, I don't know.
00:21:29.260 Do you think there's going to be a significant change in the UK's policy vis-a-vis Israel?
00:21:34.740 Will it go back a little bit more to the Jeremy Corbyn approach?
00:21:38.320 It's one thing to say those things in opposition, but what about his prime minister?
00:21:42.620 Where is he on Islam, Israel, Jews, etc.?
00:21:46.400 I'm just curious, because that is a battleground or a front line on these things.
00:21:51.000 Well, again, I don't think he's actually said that much about these specific things. 0.72
00:21:54.340 I think this is quite wise to do so, again, if you're trying to be all things to all men, as he is now.
00:22:00.440 I don't think he's taken that much of a line.
00:22:02.460 I have to correct myself on that.
00:22:03.800 But I certainly when people imagine, you know, who they think of Andy Burnham in their head, certainly somebody who takes a hard line on one side of the Israel-Palestine issue does not crop up into somebody's mind.
00:22:18.760 I think, again, as mayor of Greater Manchester, he will have no overall reason to talk about foreign policy.
00:22:24.560 I can't imagine that there will be, again, much difference, I think, especially on the left now that Israel has become less popular among the left.
00:22:33.740 But again, also, you know, these aren't completely radical people in government.
00:22:39.760 I imagine he will stay somewhere similar to the start on the line that is critical of Israel in some ways, but it obviously is not completely aligned with the radical Palestinian jihadist activists, for example, as well.
00:22:53.880 So I don't think there'll be that much difference on there.
00:22:56.840 Now, again, overall, I think we're going to see really a continuation of government, even though people are expecting some big change.
00:23:03.340 Yeah, I think you're probably right. I think he's managed to keep some of his because he was a mayor.
00:23:08.640 Mayor, by definition, don't really deal with certain things.
00:23:13.460 One thing that has always bothered me about U.K. politics is how even the so-called Conservative Party was so deeply in favor of net zero.
00:23:22.740 I mean, Boris Johnson was committed to that. And net zero is basically a way to make energy more costly in the West while allowing China, India and other developing countries to burn fossil fuels at will for their industrial revolution.
00:23:37.840 And it bothered me under Boris Johnson. It's continuing. I mean, there's an antipathy towards fossil fuels in the UK. The UK pays some of the highest energy taxes in Europe. It's particularly hard for pensioners, and there was a real crisis there. Is there any chance that Andy Burnham might become more moderate on the climate stuff, or is he still full Greta Thunberg on that stuff like Boris Johnson was?
00:24:05.040 yeah full Greta Thunberg I mean obviously now the current energy secretary is Ed Miliband
00:24:11.540 Red Ed as people used to call him and frankly still do and now he was the leader he was the
00:24:17.180 Labour leader from 2010 to 2015 and fought against Cameron in the 2015 election uh and lost uh but he
00:24:24.200 came back as the energy secretary in Keir Starmer's cabinet and he is one of the worst proponents of
00:24:30.120 net zero uh that you can imagine um that is frankly now again obviously uh like for me and
00:24:36.000 for many other people on the right sort of immigration is is the big issue but things
00:24:39.820 like net zero and energy policy are you know probably not as destructive as allowing you know 1.00
00:24:45.400 millions of billions of people from the third world to come into your country and 0.83
00:24:48.720 to commit crimes and whatever but the actual the energy policy that they are doing right now is
00:24:54.260 absolutely horrendous uh and there have been some rumors floating around that andy burnham may tap
00:25:00.420 ed milliband to be his chancellor uh in which case you know we're going to see uh net zero on
00:25:06.660 steroids and you know ed ed's going to be at the treasury pulling the purse strings and certainly
00:25:11.500 having even more control over more areas uh of our life uh and making the net zero madness continue
00:25:17.580 But I can't. Yeah, I think it's that's one of these areas where it's there is potential for it to get worse than the current Starmer regime.
00:25:27.120 But let's see. Last question, Jack. You mentioned immigration.
00:25:30.560 Obviously, we talk a lot about that. We looked at Restore UK's study into the rape gangs, which is just shocking.
00:25:37.600 And I'm pleased to say it's had some attention on this side of the Atlantic.
00:25:41.560 There's a very large YouTuber named Asmongold who read through the entire document seven hours for his viewers and had nearly a million views.
00:25:50.760 So there are some of that news is coming out.
00:25:53.400 And I think that the rape gangs are absolutely linked to mass immigration of people from misogynist cultures.
00:25:59.180 How could it not be?
00:26:00.740 Is there any difference between Keir Starmer and Andy Burnham on mass immigration? 0.70
00:26:05.780 I mean, it seems like no one in the Labour Party is willing to do anything substantive about it because they know those immigrants will in time vote Labour.
00:26:15.080 Is there any daylight between Starmer and Burnham on this stuff? 0.95
00:26:21.700 No, definitely not. I mean, in fact, even as mayor of Greater Manchester, Burnham himself, he for one, he said that you try to be against a national inquiry on the grooming gangs.
00:26:34.620 There were other inquiries and reports that were sort of taking place in Oldham, which was under the Greater Manchester purview, which wasn't able to get much data and so on.
00:26:44.480 There was more reports that were trying to get information from Greater Manchester Police.
00:26:49.260 Greater Manchester Police was very, very reticent to allow this data to be out there on the grooming gangs.
00:26:55.860 And guess who, as mayor of Greater Manchester, had the role of police and crime commissioner baked into his position who could have pressured a Greater Manchester police to open their books, open their data to these people who are doing the reports?
00:27:10.420 Well, guess what? It was it was Andy Burnham.
00:27:12.460 So Andy Burnham has had a role himself in them, certainly not assisting in the release of this evidence to the general public.
00:27:21.540 uh and i think that's one thing where again you could say andy burnham is worse than starmer
00:27:26.300 uh on the grooming gangs and certainly again if we're talking about immigration
00:27:29.600 overall we're going to see a general continuation of the policy again hopefully as i said shabana
00:27:34.480 stay the same secretary and at least get those ir reforms in uh you know illegal migration is still
00:27:40.420 going down but again burnham is a leftist burnham so will not um you know crack down on legal
00:27:46.100 migration uh either so that's sort of good thing um but yeah it's it's um it really is business as
00:27:53.380 usual uh as much as people wish this to be a change and would like there to be a change uh
00:27:58.400 again again it's six months in uh in six months i think you're going to say uh instead of people
00:28:03.300 singing kia starmer's a rude word that i can't say uh on air uh they'll be singing that to uh
00:28:09.420 Andy Burnham is a word for,
00:28:13.440 again, I can't say the phrase,
00:28:15.640 but I'm sure we've all seen the video clips
00:28:17.280 of people chanting that, yes.
00:28:18.880 There were some Scottish soccer fans,
00:28:20.720 football fans in Boston
00:28:22.480 who were chanting the chant you're referring to.
00:28:24.940 We'll end the segment with that.
00:28:26.680 Jack, great to see you.
00:28:27.660 It's always a wonder.
00:28:32.300 It's always a wonder.
00:28:35.980 It's always a wonder.
00:28:39.420 Hey, welcome back.
00:28:48.020 Your letters to me about Friday's Calgary event with Keith Wilson,
00:28:52.700 sheepdog, and it says,
00:28:53.900 Keith, the leader of the new independent Alberta. 0.71
00:28:56.000 Get her done.
00:28:56.820 What was interesting to me is that the media,
00:28:58.680 who have been so hostile to the independence movement,
00:29:01.820 actually engaged with Keith Wilson for a substantive question and answer.
00:29:06.380 Went on for about an hour.
00:29:07.620 It was actually pretty cool to watch.
00:29:09.420 You know, in some ways, central Canada would love to be rid of Alberta.
00:29:20.820 All that oil, all those carbon emissions, all those right-wingers, but come on, who's kidding who?
00:29:27.020 They love that oil, and they love having someone to beat up.
00:29:30.000 I'm not saying all Easterners, but the Ottawa Laurentian elite.
00:29:33.380 You know who I'm talking about.
00:29:35.480 Gordon Kirk says,
00:29:36.240 we Albertans so love you and thank you to Merrill Leach for your immense sacrifice for Albertans
00:29:40.940 and all Canadians. Rebel News, we 100% stand with you. Well, thank you for saying that, Gordon. It
00:29:45.500 was a pleasure to hang out with to Merrill Leach. And remember, she's still actually under house
00:29:50.140 arrest. But one of the, I'm not going to call it a loophole, one of the characteristics of house
00:29:55.320 arrest is that you're allowed to work. So we made her a job offer that requires her to travel all
00:30:01.680 the time. And I feel really good about that because it's such an unjust sentence. And the
00:30:06.500 fact that she's out and about and doing great work for Rebel News and spreading her own view of the
00:30:12.520 world, I think it's a great victory. And I want to thank every Rebel News viewer who made that
00:30:16.740 possible. Anyways, that's our show for the day. Until tomorrow, on behalf of all of us at Rebel
00:30:21.500 World Headquarters, to you at home, good night and keep fighting for freedom.
