Rebel News Podcast - UK liberals embrace physical violence in their election campaign. How long until that comes to Canada？

00:00:00.000 Hello, my rebels. You know I talk about the United Kingdom partly out of personal interest,

00:00:03.860 partly out of friendship with Tommy Robinson, but partly because it is my own dystopian time

00:00:08.660 machine to see our fearful future five years from now. Today, I talk about the milkshaking

00:00:13.720 of politicians that Tommy Robinson, Carl Benjamin, and Nigel Farage. Milkshaking

00:00:17.600 is a new verb. It means going up to a politician you don't like and throwing a milkshake in their

00:00:22.720 face. Milkshakes for now, but as I'll show you in a moment, plenty of other people have other ideas

00:00:28.020 like acid or bricks. That's the UK in 2019. I say to you, that's Canada in 2024, maybe sooner.

00:00:36.800 Without further ado, I'll let you, well, just a little bit further ado. Can you go to the

00:00:40.860 rebel.media slash shows and be a premium member? It's eight bucks a month. That's not a lot of dough.

00:00:45.400 Eight bucks a month, you get access to the TV version of this. Oh my God, I'm showing you

00:00:49.120 milkshakes being thrown. I can describe it, but you want to see that with your own eyes, am I right?

00:00:53.540 That's what the premium membership is for. Eight bucks a month, you get all these shows,

00:00:57.220 video style, plus Sheila's show and David Menzies' show. It's worth it, and even if you don't think

00:01:02.540 it's worth it, it helps us out. How's that? All right, here's the show.

00:01:07.620 You're listening to a Rebel Media Podcast.

00:01:10.860 Tonight, liberals in the United Kingdom embrace physical violence in their election campaign.

00:01:16.760 Could that come to Canada, too? It's May 21st, and this is The Ezra LeVant Show.

00:01:21.140 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?

00:01:26.880 There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.

00:01:30.960 The only thing I have to say to the government about why I'm publishing it is because it's my

00:01:35.560 bloody right to do so.

00:01:36.840 Yet again, let me take you back into my personal dystopian time machine five years into the future

00:01:47.640 here in Canada, or just hop on a plane to the United Kingdom right now, because what's happening there

00:01:52.560 will happen here, because if you don't change the direction you're going, then you're likely to end

00:01:57.380 up where you're heading. As usual, it starts with our friend Tommy Robinson. As you know, he's running

00:02:03.520 for public office. He's running to be a member of the European Parliament since the UK Conservatives

00:02:07.880 haven't kept their promise to follow through on the Brexit referendum. They're stuck in there,

00:02:12.960 and it's time to elect new members of the European Parliament, MEPs, as they're called.

00:02:18.120 So Tommy is running in Northwest England, and he's got a chance because the top eight names on the

00:02:23.460 ballot in that region will win, so he only needs 10% or even less. He's got a chance.

00:02:28.720 So a few days ago, he was talking to voters on the street in a town,

00:02:33.160 and one Muslim man came up to him, was shouting at him. You could see repeatedly a group of

00:02:39.380 left-wing activists with him. Now, Tommy being Tommy, he tried to talk to this man, and he did,

00:02:45.740 until the man just threw a milkshake in his face.

00:02:49.720 It was as premeditated as can be. He wasn't there to debate.

00:02:53.640 That man was there to cause damage, cause humiliation, cause a ruckus.

00:02:58.820 The cameras were rolling. He threw it in Tommy's face.

00:03:04.200 And yet the media, the mainstream media, turned that man into a hero. The Guardian newspaper,

00:03:10.480 I'm not serious. I mean, I'm not kidding. I'm not making this up.

00:03:14.720 Look at this loving picture they have of the man.

00:03:17.240 They said the milkshake slipped out of his hand by accident. That is what was reported in the

00:03:26.120 Guardian newspaper. The media made the assaulter into the victim, but not before police did.

00:03:34.460 Police actually helped the attacker get away, as you know. They literally gave him a ride to the

00:03:38.620 train station, as you know. Not to the police station, the train station. And he got in the

00:03:42.180 cabin. I think I showed you this a few weeks ago when it happened, but this is just step one in

00:03:46.540 our story today. He boasted about what he did and praised Allah. I think I showed this to you

00:03:51.760 before. Take a look. Yes, bro. Yes, G. How are you, man? Respect. BB1. Did you even get nicked?

00:03:58.660 No, bro. Yeah, man. Everything's blessed. Alhamdulillah. Alhamdulillah. Alana shukar.

00:04:03.060 He's pretty excited about it. Praise Allah. So the five pre-P professionals, as Daniel Pipes calls

00:04:08.540 them, the establishment, the elites, you know, the press, the politicians, the police, the prosecutors,

00:04:13.300 the professors, they all love this. Not only did they not oppose what this guy did, they

00:04:19.380 cheered it. The police and the prosecutors did not arrest him or charge him. The press

00:04:25.680 turned the criminal into a hero. Professors opined about it. Politicians said it was dandy.

00:04:32.980 Ha ha, so funny. Humiliating people by assaulting them. It is an assault. If you doubt me, try doing

00:04:39.260 it to a policeman. Try doing it to the prime minister or someone that the five P professionals 1.00

00:04:44.720 haven't decided is an un-person yet. Police have decided that Tommy is an un-person. And

00:04:50.420 why not? So has Facebook. So has Twitter. So has PayPal. So have the courts who threw him

00:04:56.020 in prison for doing journalism. So Tommy, for sure. But then slightly less controversial

00:05:01.820 people than Tommy started getting assaulted. This guy named Carl Benjamin, who has the online

00:05:08.320 nicknamed Sargon of a cat, he's running for the UKIP party. They've milkshaked him too, 0.68

00:05:14.060 as the new verb goes. And then Burger King UK, or the woke 20-something leftist who runs their

00:05:21.280 Twitter account, wrote this tweet over the weekend. Dear people of Scotland, we're selling milkshakes

00:05:27.600 all weekend. Have fun. Love BK. Just saying. They were a bit oblique, but I don't know if you can

00:05:36.000 see what's going on here. They confirmed it to a few other Twitterers by liking their interpretation

00:05:43.000 that they were actually encouraging assaults on people they didn't like. So that's a multinational

00:05:48.720 corporation based in Brazil. Multi-billion dollar company. Actually owns Tim Hortons too.

00:05:53.720 And they're saying, yeah, go ahead. Use our milkshakes to assault someone who is unfashionable

00:05:59.500 to the left. And wouldn't you know it, less than 24 hours later, a leftist did milkshake

00:06:05.840 a candidate of the right. First it was Tommy. Then it was UKIP. Now it's Nigel Farage, leader

00:06:13.340 of the Brexit party. Former UKIP leader, the Brexit party. Actually polls show we'll win the MEP

00:06:20.500 elections with the most seats. Now I'd say that Nigel is actually part of the establishment.

00:06:26.480 But so what? Just like when Hollywood shouted about punching a Nazi in the face,

00:06:31.680 they define Nazis as anyone they wanted to punch in the face. It was circular that way. So

00:06:37.160 some leftist extremists did just that.

00:06:54.940 Yeah, just an assault. No surprise, it's some loser who was a remainer, as they call the pro-eer.

00:07:07.140 EU people who lost the referendum election. He's a Jeremy Corbyn labor fan. So he's a leftist. And

00:07:13.760 like the Democrats in the United States who kept ranting about how Donald Trump isn't our legitimate

00:07:18.300 president, he didn't really win the elections, or the Russians stole it, or whatever. This guy

00:07:22.820 didn't believe Brexit should happen, even though the Leave side won. So he takes to violence now.

00:07:31.140 Now Farage was restrained and thoughtful. He pointed out in a tweet that democracy only works,

00:07:38.180 let me quote, for a civilized democracy to work, you need the loser's consent.

00:07:43.400 As in, if Obama agreed to leave the office, if the remain side agreed to accept the Leave victory,

00:07:50.100 that's the only way democracy works. That's the thing. Like so many rules and customs and laws,

00:07:54.600 the left now only supports those rules and customs and laws when it benefits them. Free speech is an

00:08:00.360 obvious example. They love it for themselves, take it away from their opponents. Democratic votes,

00:08:04.520 obvious example. And now, the rules, customs, and laws against violence. They're selective,

00:08:10.760 it seems like. The media response was instant. Throwing milkshakes at someone is not an act of

00:08:17.360 political violence, says the new statesman. Look at that guy. Of course it's violence. Of course it

00:08:23.380 violates your personal, your person. Throwing something at someone is assault, battery. Throwing

00:08:31.040 something that messes them up is assault, even it's mischief. It doesn't have to deeply hurt you to be

00:08:36.680 violence. It's still illegal. It's still violent. The test is not how badly you hurt someone. It's if you

00:08:42.740 commit a crime deliberately violating someone's personal integrity. And Tommy was the test case,

00:08:47.960 and then was Carl Benjamin of UKIP. So yeah, of course, Nigel Farage is next. It did hurt him,

00:08:53.420 though. Obviously, it physically dirtied him and his suit. But of course, the goal was humiliation,

00:08:59.300 which is much worse than a dirty suit. It was personal humiliation in the moment at the place he was,

00:09:04.560 and it was national, international humiliation on video. And that loser thug was thrilled with him,

00:09:12.580 himself. I effing did it. It was Farage. I can't believe I did it. He was so excited. He was boasting

00:09:21.060 about it. Other media instantly agreed. They were so excited. It wasn't just funny, said the

00:09:28.760 Independent. It's absolutely hilarious. But hang on, that's violence. It's the literal definition of

00:09:37.200 violence. But it's fine to the left when it's done to the right. So actual violence is not violence

00:09:43.540 now. But mean words, that to the left is violence. And not just to the left of the five Pete

00:09:50.060 professionals. This man here, James Goddard, a self-styled leader of the Yellow Vests in the

00:09:55.620 United Kingdom, he once accosted a leftist MP named Anna Soubry, walking with her near Parliament

00:10:03.680 and shouting at her that she's a Nazi. Now that's over the top. She's not a Nazi, and neither

00:10:09.960 is Goddard either. And it's not nice to shout at someone. But it's nothing that isn't shouted

00:10:17.060 at any conservative on any given day. But he didn't throw anything at her. He didn't milkshake

00:10:21.700 her. Nonetheless, he was charged with a crime. And he was immediately banned from the city

00:10:31.460 of London, before he was convicted, by the way. There are 23,000 jihadis in the United

00:10:36.900 Kingdom, as you know, just running around. They're not banned from London. Police say they're

00:10:41.140 watching them. You can't watch 23,000 people. But they're not banned from London. But this

00:10:46.060 one guy shouts at an MP, and he's banned from London? How'd that work? So nonviolence

00:10:51.100 is now violence. But violence is not violence. Well, they were just getting going, my friends.

00:10:58.000 Here's a brewery that said milkshakes are fine, but you know, hit them over the head with a brick

00:11:04.660 as is traditional. And wouldn't you know it, in fact, some leftists did throw a brick at Tommy's

00:11:12.660 campaign vehicle TV screen and broke it. Police arrested him. He said he would happily do it

00:11:20.880 again. There's the thug there, a leftist. Here's some gentle, caring leftist who said,

00:11:28.420 you know, milkshakes are fine, but really, I'd prefer acid. But milkshakes will do for now.

00:11:37.840 That's a thing in the UK, by the way, throwing acid in people's faces. It happens several times

00:11:42.480 a day. Isn't that strange? But back to Tommy, because they start with him, and then they move

00:11:48.620 towards the center from him. They see what they can get away with with him. Then they set the

00:11:52.980 precedent, and then say they can expand it by moving to UKIP, and then to the Brexit party,

00:11:56.880 always going step by step. Obviously, you can't start with the prime minister. Start with Tommy.

00:12:01.220 See if you can get away with it. So look at this. From when Tommy Robinson was campaigning

00:12:04.900 in the town of Oldham, more than 100 Muslim men, many wearing masks, some shouting Allah Akbar,

00:12:11.280 threw rocks and bricks and stones and bottles at men and women and children who were peaceful

00:12:17.460 Tommy Robinson campaign event attendees. They swarmed into the town. They had come in from out of town.

00:12:24.840 They called themselves the Muslim Defense League, masks, Allah Akbar, throwing rocks at kids.

00:12:30.780 Tommy personally put the kids at the campaign event in the back of a campaign van so they wouldn't

00:12:37.100 be hurt, while police just stood around. But here's the craziest video of all. Crazier than the rock

00:12:43.400 throwing or the swarming. It's the Muslim Defense League, that's what they called themselves, 1.00

00:12:47.320 wearing masks, literally being escorted for more than a mile by police directly to Tommy and his campaign

00:12:59.280 event. As in, these Muslim activists who came in from out of town, they didn't know where to go

00:13:03.360 exactly. They were fairly far away. There's 100 of them. They couldn't hop in a cab. And instead of

00:13:09.720 being held back or being asked to de-mask or put the rocks down, police walked with them right to

00:13:16.780 where Tommy was. That happened. But look at how that was all reported in the media. Police cars

00:13:25.160 were smashed. Police cars were damaged. Violence erupted. I love that passive tense.

00:13:35.320 Violence erupts. It just broke out, folks. It's like a case of the measles. You never know how it

00:13:40.400 happened. They never tell you. The only name, they say, in fact, is Tommy Robinson. Is that what

00:13:45.680 happened? Did violence erupt at a Tommy Robinson campaign event? Or did a group of 100 Muslims, 0.83

00:13:50.540 some masked, some saying Allah Akbar, attack Tommy in this peaceful rally with rocks, with the police

00:13:55.540 escorting them, which is true. That is why no one trusts the media anymore. But it's not just the

00:14:01.120 media. It's the police. It's the prosecutors. It's the politicians. It's all of them. The entire

00:14:05.920 establishment has decided that you can do these things with impunity to Tommy Robinson because he's

00:14:10.420 a non-person. Now they're trying it on Nigel Farage. I don't know how that will work. Hey, how long

00:14:15.980 before political candidates in Canada are attacked by Antifa thugs, with police standing by passively?

00:14:22.540 How long until political candidates are attacked in Canada with police literally acting as guides

00:14:28.380 and escorts to the thugs? Five years, I'd say. Stay with us for more.

00:14:45.980 If you're like the party opposite, you're worried about debt. You're worried about cost. You should be

00:14:54.540 worried about the cost that we are passing on to our kids, the cost of climate change. We have got an

00:14:59.140 emergency here and the party opposite is not telling the truth to Canadians. We are paying. We've gone from

00:15:05.720 $400 billion a year to over $2 billion to $400 million to $2 billion because of the cost of climate change.

00:15:11.820 Why don't they step up? Why don't they step up for climate action? Why don't they step up for the

00:15:15.860 economy in the future and stop misleading Canadians?

00:15:20.560 Holy moly. You know why my colleague Sheila Gunn-Reed calls her old yeller. I'm sorry,

00:15:27.400 that's just too funny. Sheila, of course, coined the phrase climate Barbie. But Barbie is sweet 1.00

00:15:31.700 and endearing. That was shouty and angry. And she's had a series of furious tweets linking to

00:15:41.020 profanity laden excoriations of people who don't like paying more for their gasoline. I wonder if

00:15:48.560 it's going to work. I think that the liberals are flapping around looking for some issue to go into

00:15:54.440 the election on. I don't know if it'll be the economy. I don't think it can be. They've trotted out

00:16:01.220 some, I don't know, some trial balloons on abortion. I'm not sure if that'll fly. Calling all their 1.00

00:16:06.840 opponents neo-Nazis. Not sure if that'll work. I think this is their default. Just rant about

00:16:12.580 how they need attacks to change the weather. I don't know. Joining us now from Edmonton with his

00:16:17.560 point of view is our friend Lauren Gunter, senior columnist with the Edmonton Sun, whose recent column

00:16:22.680 is entitled, Why the Liberals Are Getting Unhinged on Climate Issues. Lauren, great to see you again.

00:16:29.220 Good to see you. I like that. That's Sheila. She's great with the nickname. She's almost Trumpy like

00:16:36.160 that. Sometimes it's good to be outraged. Righteous anger. There is absolutely a place for that in

00:16:44.960 politics. But being angry at people who don't want to pay a tax, that's sort of being angry at voters.

00:16:52.260 The idea is to reflect voter anger at something, not your anger with voters that they don't want

00:16:59.700 to pay your tax. I think she's aiming the anger at people she's trying to win over. And that just, 0.99

00:17:05.000 that's not how physics or elections work.

00:17:08.000 And you know, they're stuck in the middle. They really are. Because

00:17:10.780 the scandals have damaged the liberal brand and damaged the Trudeau brand. I think irreparably,

00:17:17.060 certainly over the next four or five years, it's going to be hard for them to recover the brand,

00:17:22.460 the shininess on their brand. So they're looking for ways of appeasing people they need to keep in

00:17:30.500 the fold. I think they've sort of given up the idea of expanding beyond their coalition. I think

00:17:37.440 they're even worried that they don't have the same coalition they had in 2015. So they're just

00:17:43.260 looking for ways of scaring the people who are still in the liberal camp into staying in the

00:17:50.000 liberal camp. You know, there's scary beasts out there in the dark. Don't go out there. There are

00:17:54.860 people who don't believe climate change is happening. There are neo-Nazis. There are people who want to

00:18:00.160 put their rosaries on the ovaries of women again. I mean, all of those things that are really just 1.00

00:18:08.180 scare tactics. And that's what was used by the NDP in Alberta. It was all scare tactics. And that

00:18:15.400 worked in Edmonton, where people don't have to focus on the economy like they do in the rest of

00:18:20.300 the province, because so many people are employed in the public sector in Edmonton. And so they were

00:18:25.300 able to allow themselves the luxury of being scared into voting NDP. But I don't think that that can work

00:18:33.020 on the broad reach in Alberta or the broad reach in Canada. So I think the liberals are really stuck.

00:18:39.580 And they see the NDP now moving further to the left and deeper green. And they see the Green Party

00:18:46.540 perhaps as an alternative with lefty voters who are disgruntled with the liberals and the NDP.

00:18:52.940 And they're just pulling their hair out trying to figure out what to do. So they've gotten really,

00:18:57.960 really shrill on a number of things, including on the climate file.

00:19:02.560 Yeah. I mean, look, there's different ways to go hard left. And I agree with you.

00:19:06.980 The Green Party seems well placed to be the anti-establishment voice of the left.

00:19:13.120 We saw them doing well in Newfoundland and PEI. They won that federal by-election seat

00:19:19.020 in Nanaimo. The liberals came in fourth with 11%. So I understand going new green deal like

00:19:26.460 Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in the States. But she is particularly charming. I mean,

00:19:35.200 I think that she's a socialist. I think she's very shallow. But she's likable. She's funny.

00:19:42.740 She's got the social media prowess, second only to Trump. So that's a certain approach to climate

00:19:49.860 change, green extremism. The happy warrior. I mean, listen, I've got my quarrels with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez,

00:19:55.340 but she's a great communicator. What we showed in that opening clip was a shouting.

00:20:02.280 Yeah. Yeah.

00:20:03.080 And I think that, like I was looking at the latest Angus Reid poll a couple months ago,

00:20:08.080 that Trudeau's support with men is almost down to 20%. And I think you have a shouty

00:20:15.580 woman hectoring. I just, I think it's a turnoff for, and why do I say men? Because men have to pay

00:20:24.620 the bills. Men are generally the breadwinners. And they're thinking this shouting woman is demanding 1.00

00:20:29.040 more taxes. I think it's, it's a tonal thing. I just don't think, I just, let me, let me use a

00:20:34.140 curling analogy, if you will. My family are long time curling fans. My grandfather was a very good

00:20:42.820 curler. My uncle, my mother, my, my, uh, my sister, all devoted curling fans. And almost all

00:20:51.320 of them turn down the sound when they're watching the Scotties, which is the women's national

00:20:57.000 championship. But they don't turn down the sound when they're watching the briar. It's got nothing

00:21:00.580 to do with men being breadwinners or women being stay at home or anything like that. It's the sound 0.81

00:21:07.700 of Catherine McKenna. You could, unfortunately, whether it's fair or not, you could probably have

00:21:12.640 a male environment minister who was just as yelly and the tone wouldn't bother people as much,

00:21:18.160 but people tend to tune out the tone or the, the, the style that they dislike. And she, I mean,

00:21:25.260 you watched her in that clip, she throws her shoulders into the finger pointing, you know, 1.00

00:21:30.340 it's so over the top. A lot of people are going to be put off by that. And I also think that,

00:21:36.480 you know, now that you have the carbon tax and it's not popular, about two thirds of Canadians

00:21:40.380 oppose it. You're starting to see people increasingly supportive of some sort of pipeline,

00:21:47.200 preferably Trans Mountain. You, you saw the Senate, the Senate rise up and defy the House

00:21:53.700 of Commons, or at least Senate committees defy the House of Commons. We yet to see whether the Senate

00:21:58.340 as a whole will continue the revolution that started at the committee to defeat bills C-48 and C-69,

00:22:05.540 the anti-tanker, oil tanker bill and the anti-pipeline bill. I just think that there's an increasing

00:22:13.380 number of people in, in Canada. It might only be 45 or 50%, might be slightly less than that,

00:22:19.540 but you've seen the largest plurality of voters who are now starting to question whether or not we can

00:22:25.980 actually afford the environmental dreams, the green dreams of the Rachel Notley's and, and the Justin

00:22:33.820 Trudeau's and the Catherine McKenna's and the, and the John Horgan, the BC premier. They're starting

00:22:40.560 to question that. And I don't think the way to assuage their fears is to get more shouty.

00:22:46.660 Yeah. Well, I mean, my point about referring to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez could be applied to

00:22:51.660 Rachel Notley too. It's, it's possible to be a powerful, persuasive woman in a brutal election 1.00

00:22:58.960 campaign. In fact, at the end of the Alberta election campaign, really the ballot proposition

00:23:04.240 was, was don't you like and trust Rachel Notley as a human more than Jason Kenney? And, and I mean,

00:23:14.160 that's certainly how their messaging was put. So I just think that at the end of the Alberta election,

00:23:18.980 I honestly think two years ago, uh, you had held the vote, the same result would have happened.

00:23:24.880 Uh, but I actually think at the end of the Alberta election, people outside Edmonton were so eager

00:23:30.840 to have, uh, an economically grownup group back in charge in Alberta that you could have found,

00:23:39.120 uh, video of UCP candidates involved in ritualistic satanic cults. And that's, they still would have

00:23:47.060 won, but, but nonetheless, you were right about the message. At the end, the NDP put all of their

00:23:53.120 eggs in the Rachel Notley basket and said, look, she's just so much more charming than, than Jason

00:23:59.500 Kenney. And the voter said, yeah, so what? She's charming, but she's running the economy into the 1.00

00:24:03.420 ground. We got to get somebody else. Well, let me ask you this, because there was a clip of, uh,

00:24:07.880 of Trudeau at the United Nations, um, at a UN forum the other day on, um, on being a feminist. Did you see

00:24:15.060 that clip, uh, Lauren? He was boasting about how he's going to keep saying he's a feminist until he gets 0.95

00:24:21.100 no reaction because it's completely normal. Here, let's play a quick, uh, clip of that.

00:24:25.800 Well, I'm going to keep saying loud and clearly that I am a feminist, uh, until... 1.00

00:24:32.800 Hear me roar.

00:24:35.840 ...until it is met with a shrug. Uh, why does every time I say I'm a feminist, uh, you know, 1.00

00:24:43.580 the Twitterverse explodes and, uh, news medias pick it up. It shouldn't be something, uh, that creates

00:24:50.740 a reaction. It simply is saying, I believe in the equality of men and women, and I believe

00:24:56.140 that we still have an awful lot of work to do to get there. That's like saying the sky

00:25:01.100 is blue and the grass is green. Um, and now I know that's talking about something else,

00:25:06.160 but that's that smooth, charming pick-up artist approach that worked like crazy in 2015, um,

00:25:15.400 because everyone was flattered that this handsome boy was paying attention to us and he said all

00:25:19.700 the right things. Now that he's revealed to be an imposter, especially on women's issues, 0.79

00:25:24.520 he can still get a round of applause on that from the UN who hasn't been following his treatment

00:25:29.400 of Jody Wilson-Raybould or Jane Philpott. But watching that now, it's so, such an imposter.

00:25:36.880 It's creepy. It's so, he's such an imposter. He's creepy. And this is, that's the funny thing. I mean,

00:25:43.180 I once remember interviewing a specialist in sexual harassment in the workplace. And what she said

00:25:51.300 was that good looking men get away with things that less well looking or less good looking men

00:25:58.980 can't get away with saying things in the office. Uh, you know, a good looking man asks a woman out 0.98

00:26:05.480 on a date. She's not interested, but she feels flattered that this really charming guy asked her

00:26:10.340 out. Uh, the ugly guy from accounting asks, and she just so creeped out by it. She, she calls the 0.87

00:26:17.280 sexual harassment officer in. And, uh, you know, Trudeau has gone since 2015 from being the handsome

00:26:23.740 guy in the office who's flattering you with his attention to the guy now who, no matter what he

00:26:28.320 says, it just comes off kind of icky. And you, you, you just want to jump in the shower after you've

00:26:34.380 heard him talk. Well, and that's the thing. And I, and I come back to that cover story in

00:26:38.440 Maclean's magazine written by Paul Wells, the imposter. And I keep pointing out the imposter

00:26:44.320 is a reflection on the author. The author was fooled. Now the author is disillusioned and the

00:26:51.200 author is angry because he was tricked. Justin Trudeau is the same. Justin Trudeau he's always

00:26:55.960 been. Paul Wells just realized. And you used to call him shiny pony. You weren't tricked.

00:26:59.980 But a lot of people were. And, and that's my point is that if they play the sunny ways,

00:27:06.040 we're different, we're more transparent, we're more democratic, we're more open.

00:27:10.420 We believe in, um, we believe in diversity of opinion that played in 2015, but I don't think

00:27:17.540 it's going to work in 2019. And so you see the shouty Catherine McKenna. It'll work with some of

00:27:23.500 their core people who are afraid that, uh, you know, Andrew Scheer is going to, uh, return us to

00:27:31.200 the stone age. They'll buy into those sort of tactics. But, uh, but if you say, no, no, no,

00:27:36.860 look, he is a real feminist. He, he keeps saying it. He wants, he's been saying it all along, but

00:27:41.900 every time, uh, a powerful woman confronts him with an opinion contrary to his own, he fires her

00:27:48.360 or he demeans her or he tries to explain away why he groped her. Uh, you know, all of that simply

00:27:56.440 puts a lie to, to the image. And so the only people I think are going to be left to buy into

00:28:03.200 his sunny ways. I'm a feminist, uh, ickiness. I just keep coming back to that word. It's kind of

00:28:10.820 icky. Uh, are the real true believers. And that's, I think now where the liberal war room is at is that

00:28:18.240 they realize they have to keep the true believers on board because they've lost just about everybody

00:28:24.940 else. I mean, look at what they did the other day with, with the, uh, agreement with, with Legault,

00:28:30.400 the premier of Quebec to allow Quebec to decide who the Supreme court justices will be from,

00:28:37.140 from that province. Uh, you know, in, in the Meech Lake accord, there was a, there was a clause

00:28:42.780 offered to all the provinces that the prime minister would pick Supreme court justices from

00:28:48.200 short lists provided by the provinces, all the provinces. Now there's an agreement with,

00:28:54.800 the federal government and the Quebec government that Quebec gets to tell the prime minister

00:28:59.420 the number one choice they want for Supreme court justices appointed out of Quebec. No other province

00:29:06.300 gets that. And you, you know, they're going to say stuff like that because it, that helps them win

00:29:13.340 votes in Quebec. And so they're really looking at micro selecting strategies all the way across the

00:29:20.060 country. Yeah. Incredible. You know what? I, I didn't believe until in the last month that Andrew

00:29:29.240 Scheer could win. I just thought, you know, the Jody Wilson-Raybould thing, it'll fade and you still

00:29:34.740 have six months and you got the media bailout. But I think the Mark Norman thing solidified some of the

00:29:40.020 corruption. And then when I was in Ottawa, uh, reporting on his, the day he was, um, released from

00:29:46.600 charges. I observed as much the media party journalists in the room, as much as Mark Norman

00:29:53.060 or his lawyer. And I could tell that none of them were any more in love with Trudeau. That's not to

00:29:58.400 say they liked Scheer, but the love is gone. They've been, they've been disillusioned too. And I actually

00:30:05.200 think that no matter what the liberals throw at Andrew Scheer, unless there's some huge intervening

00:30:11.520 act, I actually believe Scheer is going to win maybe just a minority. I'm willing to go on the

00:30:16.840 record. Go ahead. That's where I'm at at the moment. Yeah. He said, I think we're looking at

00:30:21.160 a conservative minority. I don't think they'll be able to win over enough people to actually get a

00:30:26.780 majority. But, but I think you, you could easily see a conservative minority. And, and this is

00:30:32.260 exactly when you're talking about the, the, the media party journalists in the room at the Mark

00:30:38.700 Norman press conference. That's exactly what was happening in Alberta. You had all of these

00:30:44.600 journalists who loved Rachel Notley, but they could see that it was over. And while they were

00:30:51.180 being very friendly in their coverage of her and very complimentary, they had already seen the

00:30:59.640 handwriting on the wall. They were not trying to make excuses. The only exception I would say in Alberta

00:31:05.360 was the CBC, which had at some time seven reporters trying to dig up dirt on Jason Kenney.

00:31:12.260 Yeah. But, but this is, I think the same thing that's happening now nationally is that the press

00:31:17.740 gallery, which was, and has been in love with Trudeau for a long time now realizes when they wake up

00:31:24.280 that, that he's the gigolo who's going through their purse looking for cash. Yeah. You know, let me

00:31:30.220 leave with one more point. And we used to cover Australia a little bit more closely here at the

00:31:35.160 rebel when we had Mark Latham working for us. Now he's actually an elected legislator again, which

00:31:40.720 is interesting. They recently had an election where the governing liberal coalition. Now they say liberal,

00:31:50.120 that's actually the right wing party versus the labor. Every single poll said that the labor was going

00:31:56.420 to win. And a big part of their push was global warming, climate action, carbon tax, and nope.

00:32:04.600 Defying the pollsters, the liberal coalition, that's what they call their right wingers there,

00:32:10.400 won. Won with a, you know, it was so many points more than, I forget the exact number that the pollsters

00:32:17.880 predicted. I think that people tell pollsters, yeah, I really care about global warming, man.

00:32:24.280 But at the pump and in the ballot booth, they mark an X honestly.

00:32:29.960 I think that's exactly right. I mean, they, they, they, this is a moral panic, climate change. And so

00:32:36.720 most people will say, well, yeah, sure. I'm worried about climate change. My gosh, that would be awful

00:32:41.760 if, you know, 70 or 80 years after I'm dead, the temperature around the globe is up by two degrees.

00:32:47.300 Oh, you know, so they do. But I think you're right. I think they do. They, that, that,

00:32:52.140 that is the answer that's expected at cocktail parties. It's the answer that's expected when

00:32:56.960 somebody puts a microphone in front of your face. And so people say, oh, yes, of course,

00:33:00.940 I'm very concerned about it. And then they get mad when they see a 4% or 4 cent increase per liter

00:33:07.060 on, on a gas pump. And, and they go into the ballot box and say, I don't need this. And they vote,

00:33:14.960 at least a majority will vote against that. So I think the liberals are going to find that.

00:33:19.240 But I really think, and I also hope the liberals are going to go deeper green between now and

00:33:25.300 October. And as a result of that, we're, we're, we're going to see a conservative minority.

00:33:31.980 Well, from your mouth to God's ears, Lorne Gunter, great to see you again. Thanks for your

00:33:35.360 time, my friend. You too. All right. There you have it. Lorne Gunter's column in the Edmonton Sun,

00:33:39.820 I recommend it. It's called Why the Liberals Are Getting Unhinged on Climate Issues. Stay with us.

00:33:45.200 More ahead on the rebel. Hey, welcome back to my monologue yesterday about the United Kingdom.

00:34:00.040 Boy, I'm talking about that a lot these days. Betty writes,

00:34:02.960 I keep waiting for the moment when the British people decide they've had enough.

00:34:07.000 Well, I think they decided they had enough Betty in Brexit, but they were ignored.

00:34:10.660 I think they're going to decide they've had enough on May 23rd when the election is. I know

00:34:14.980 Nigel Farage is going to win the most seats. Tommy has a chance, but I think that a disarmed people 1.00

00:34:22.500 are no longer citizens, they're subjects. Because at the end of the day, what are they going to do?

00:34:27.360 I'm not saying that Americans would rise up in a revolution, but the fact that so many Americans

00:34:32.200 actually do have firearms means the government can only push them so far. I think that if the

00:34:36.340 government in the United States, like if Barack Obama simply refused to move out of the White House,

00:34:41.080 despite Donald Trump's victory, I think that people would have risen up with rivals. The

00:34:48.680 government would never have done that because they would have known that was a possibility. In

00:34:51.380 the UK, that's exactly the analogy, as if Obama wouldn't have left the White House. Brexit,

00:34:58.040 the Leave side of Brexit won 17.4 million voters, the highest vote in British history.

00:35:04.060 And the government just said, yeah, we'll take that under advisement. Thanks very much. Three years

00:35:08.480 later, they're still in. So yeah, what will it take for the Brits to rise up? We'll rise up with

00:35:12.600 what? Butter knives? Philip writes, you strenuously caution that the decline of personal freedom in

00:35:19.400 the UK is coming to Canada. It already has. Look no further than the situation in Caledonia, Ontario,

00:35:24.880 where police not only stood by while native protesters terrorized local citizens, those same police

00:35:29.700 brutalized citizens standing up for their rights. I think we can probably name several instances

00:35:36.180 like that. I'm familiar with the Caledonia case. I can name others in other provinces too. What I see

00:35:43.480 in the United Kingdom is system-wide. In fact, I think all the real cops have retired or just have stopped

00:35:51.220 fighting. And now there's a whole new generation of feelings cops. Like I said, there's 900 cops in the

00:35:57.600 Metropolitan Police of London alone who are on the Facebook beat. 900 specifically on that beat. So

00:36:04.100 it's not episodic or ad hoc as it is in Canada. On my interview with Joel Pollack, Robert writes,

00:36:11.360 with respect to China, Trump is taking advantage of the simple fact that the U.S. buys far more from

00:36:15.820 China. China has been in a trade war with the U.S. decades and it is only now Trump has engaged them

00:36:20.160 in a meaningful manner. I agree. And that's Trump's phraseology too. We've been in the war.

00:36:25.380 We just haven't fought back. And at the end of the day, America is such an industrial engine and

00:36:30.920 their growth is so high. Yeah, I mean, they're saving a few bucks here and there by buying cheap

00:36:35.780 goods from China. But, you know, I don't think that it's going to pain the average American

00:36:43.500 more than a few bucks here or there to displace, to substitute other goods for Chinese goods.

00:36:52.260 That's what these terrorists do. These terrorists slap an extra cost on Chinese imports. And so

00:36:58.280 American importers can either sell that Chinese stuff at a marked up price or source it from

00:37:03.820 India, Vietnam, Taiwan, Korea, whatever. So at the end of the day, it is true that your American 0.78

00:37:10.520 consumer is maybe paying a few bucks more for this or that. But America's economy is growing so fast,

00:37:16.700 Americans don't notice it. That's a point Joel make. But 300 million Americans pay a small price.

00:37:24.500 China pays an enormous price. I think Trump is going to make him blink. As Joel thoughtfully

00:37:30.480 pointed out, even Democrats who hate Trump realize he's the only guy brawler enough,

00:37:36.560 like Conor McGregor, who could take on China. I think that's exactly right.

00:37:41.220 Well, that's the show for the week. It is interesting that our friend Tommy is running

00:37:46.120 for parliament. The election is Thursday. Can you believe it? I think the guy's got a chance.

00:37:53.340 We'll see. I might scoot over there and be there on election night. All right. Till next time,

00:37:58.180 on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters, good night and keep fighting for freedom.

00:38:11.220 We'll see you next time.

00:38:16.320 We'll see you next time.
