00:00:37.260 producer there little harry who's not that little he's taller than me he's just nowhere near as tall

00:00:42.600 as big harry all right it's now eight minutes past uh sorry not eight minutes past zero minutes

00:00:47.440 past it's just ticked past eight in the a.m british summertime on friday the 4th of september

00:00:52.520 in the year of our lord 2026 okay well the heat wave's certainly over in swindon in the southwest

00:00:58.340 of england it's all rainy and windy drizzly get cold even they say there's going to be another

00:01:06.180 heat wave i welcome it if anything bring it on it's windy and rainy and drizzly and damp and

00:01:15.060 overcast nearly the whole year round in the south south west of england did i say southeast

00:01:20.660 a minute ago southwest a little bit of warm weather's nice as far as i'm concerned

00:01:27.300 well that's enough fannying about though isn't it it's quite enough faffing for one morning

00:01:31.060 let's just get straight into it that's what this show's supposed to be what's in the legacy

00:01:34.340 corporate lamestream media what's in the news cycle this morning at least in britain we always

00:01:38.420 start with fleet street don't we most of the show really is fleet street what's on the front papers

00:01:42.420 what's that cabal of evil quite frankly evil fleet street editors trying to lie to us about by

00:01:48.500 omission if by nothing else are they trying to pretend it is or isn't important

00:01:54.420 those globalist subversive traitors trying to beam directly into our eyeballs and brain boxes

00:02:01.940 we've got foreign donation sting that's on nigel and reform

00:02:12.980 we'll see we'll see about that we'll get into it of course it's one of the main stories today

00:02:16.260 Whether it really is more hot water for reform

00:02:19.340 Or whether it's nothing

00:02:20.120 Or whether it's just some activist people that hate reform

00:02:25.060 Or hate anyone that's even got an ounce of nativism or patriotism

00:02:28.500 We'll see

00:02:31.640 We'll see

00:02:32.680 We'll let you decide

00:02:33.520 We'll look at some of the details of it

00:02:35.060 And Argentina threat to Falklands

00:02:37.760 I mean, not really, barely

00:02:39.280 He was the leader of Argentina

00:02:44.120 was saying um is considering sanctions on some british companies that do oil drilling down there

00:02:51.140 in the south atlantic oh getting sanctioned by argentina oh no you know that only works if

00:02:59.780 getting sanctioned by argentina it's like being sanctioned by nepal like uh yeah i think we've

00:03:05.920 survive that okay all right it's like a tiny little terrier thinks it's a big dog you're not

00:03:15.720 a big dog bro norway norway of course let's be clear but we'll get into it can the few typhoons

00:03:22.840 we've got on that island defend it from almost anything argentina could do yeah yeah don't worry

00:03:28.380 about it all right the eye paper let's get into it the eye paper all right straight away then look

00:03:32.920 Farage caught on camera in foreign donation sting

00:03:36.120 Reform UK leader filmed by undercover reporters

00:03:39.440 Are they reporters?

00:03:41.720 Is that how you characterise them?

00:03:42.700 Reporters?

00:03:44.560 Alright, we'll get into that in a moment

00:03:45.500 By undercover reporters

00:03:47.040 Allegedly welcoming party donations

00:03:50.240 That may breach rules

00:03:52.380 Well, there you go

00:03:53.340 Look, we all know here, don't we

00:03:55.560 If anyone's seen the Bo Show before

00:03:56.980 If anyone knows anything about me or the Lotus Eaters

00:03:59.060 we're much more on the restore side of the ledger haven't can give haven't completely given up on

00:04:07.640 the very concept of engaging in electoral politics and if you have to pick a side because that's what

00:04:13.880 it boils down to if you're going to engage you've got to pick a team i get that people don't like

00:04:20.080 that i understand the argument i do i do i understand why people are so disaffected but

00:04:25.060 Okay, if you're not going to do that,

00:04:26.060 if you are going to pick a team,

00:04:28.440 we're more restore than reform.

00:04:31.460 We've had our beef with reform.

00:04:35.760 Me, Dan, Carl, most of us.

00:04:38.900 Still, still, I don't consider reform the enemy

00:04:42.800 as much as the Greens or the Lib Dems or Labour or whatever.

00:04:47.740 So, despite the fact I'm not on board with the reform project,

00:04:52.580 despite the fact I've got very severe concerns about Nigel Farage and the degree to which he

00:04:59.320 is part of a containment machine still still I'm not prepared to just like endlessly throw them

00:05:09.160 under the bus like the mirror like someone with reformed arrangement syndrome to jump on every

00:05:13.200 tiny little thing saying they're done they're done it's over now Nigel's done Nigel's gonna go

00:05:17.900 to prison now for this no no no no no wait to see what it really is what's really going on

00:05:23.380 as i said before about the other scandals he's done the other scandals surrounding him like the

00:05:27.480 five million pounds from chris harbour stuff like that i'll just wait to see if any real rules were

00:05:35.620 properly broken and it's a real issue a real proper proper issue or whether it turns out

00:05:40.300 it was nothing it's just a political witch hunt and it's nothing just wait is it same with this

00:05:45.700 that's my feeling that's my feeling same with this if it does indeed turn out we'll get into

00:05:51.380 the details of it in a moment it does indeed turn out to have been broken the rules or even the law

00:05:56.340 then then i'll go hard on it right what rhetorically

00:06:05.780 then i'll go to town on the story and poor school on reform and try and damage them in

00:06:12.260 any tiny way i can politically but until then you know get some perspective it could be it could be

00:06:22.020 that it's what reformer saying i.e these are barely reporters they're really just

00:06:26.420 net zero activists that are just trying to find any tiny chink in nigel and reform's armor and

00:06:34.820 it's it's not fair doesn't even really make sense nothing they haven't broken the rules in any way

00:06:40.900 that's my feeling about it that's my feeling about it you should be considered innocent until proven

00:06:46.900 guilty but we'll let you decide what you think about it because having said all of that as well

00:06:51.560 trying to be a little bit fair-handed a little bit not a complete 100 partisan at every moment

00:06:57.720 as hard as possible having said that i must say one or two bits of details coming out do seem a

00:07:04.460 bit dodgy. You know, seem. I don't know. I don't know the rules around electoral funding

00:07:10.280 absolutely inside out. That's not my bag. I know the life and reign of Augustus inside out. I know

00:07:18.100 the Persian campaigns of Alexander inside out. I know the campaign of 1415 by Henry V inside out.

00:07:25.560 I don't know the minutiae of electoral funding laws inside out. It may have not done anything

00:07:31.460 wrong but it does seem seem a little bit dodgy for example things like the undercover reporter

00:07:37.860 with his little button camera or whatever saying to people inside reform uh we want to give you

00:07:45.060 loads of money some money well to the tune of tens of thousands of pounds i think usually mostly that

00:07:50.260 sort of sort of thing that sort of level and people in reform going oh yeah you've got to do it through

00:07:54.760 your kid though. Seems a little bit dodgy, even if it's by the letter of the law, like

00:08:08.460 allowed, that's the loophole, you have to do it. Still a bit dodgy, or is it even a

00:08:13.580 legit loophole? Again, don't know, we'll have to wait and see. Alright, we'll talk more

00:08:18.500 about it in a bit. What else have we got on the iPaper? Apparently this guy's gonna, this

00:08:23.860 guy is sort of kind of a nobody he's a train spotter he's going to join the grand tour you

00:08:30.020 know the Clarkson thing ground tour in in was it an unlikely an unlikely new star well no one ever

00:08:38.440 heard of Richard Hammond or James May before had they but when they started but they were good

00:08:44.040 picks weren't they mostly quite like James May okay Putin growing more reckless as his inner

00:08:52.980 circle shrinks one's uk security insiders who who are they though what do you mean uk security

00:08:57.940 insiders who what hand-picked nato shields is that who but i'll read this out but just be a little

00:09:09.060 bit suspicious just be a little bit savvy of what's being said here fears that leader putin

00:09:14.900 might lash out against britain or nato allies i mean might he might not i mean all right let's read

00:09:21.620 it brinkmanship concerns oh brinkmanship it's the it's the cuba missile crisis

00:09:30.500 brinkmanship what brinkmanship really you printing this on your front page is the brinkmanship isn't

00:09:38.180 it brinkmanship heightens concerns heightened by attempted drone attack on leipzig airport again

00:09:45.460 was it or was it just it was found in leipzig leipzig airport wasn't trying to attack leipzig

00:09:50.900 airport, was it? Anyway. Which Germany blamed on Russia. It does seem to be in a Russian

00:09:55.680 drone. I mean, from reports. I mean, I wasn't there. I didn't see it myself. I didn't verify

00:10:00.820 it myself. Putin is speaking to a small inner circle and none of the more sensible voices

00:10:07.860 are still there. One source tells the iPaper. Well, I say what source? Papers don't give

00:10:15.900 away their sources very often, unless they want to, unless it's part of the story and

00:10:20.040 stuff just a source says that Putin's in a circle you see how sort of shaky and weak that is is

00:10:29.960 there anything true about that there may be of course there may be again I don't know I'm not

00:10:35.620 in Putin's in a circle but is that just verifiable fact and then of any real importance okay all

00:10:43.480 right military and diplomatic experts share the assessment that Russian president may

00:10:48.480 not be thinking rationally. There's only actual evidence for that. As Moscow enters what they

00:10:55.700 say is new phase in grey war against the West. Now, I don't want to stand too hard for the

00:11:03.720 Kremlin and Mr Putin. Once again, I do consider him a gangster, a murderer, a strategic enemy

00:11:10.500 of the West. I don't think I'm actually like Putin. I don't think I'm actually on the side

00:11:16.380 of russia i'm not i'm not i wouldn't trust putin as far as i could throw him ultimately it's just

00:11:22.700 i don't buy the lie that he's trying to he wants a war with nato he's got designs on all of eastern

00:11:29.340 europe or central europe that's the difference you see the difference right as often you get

00:11:34.300 if you say any kind word or any word in defense of the kremlin or putin you go oh you're sure

00:11:39.340 or you're so naive you don't understand why don't you go live in russia if you love it so much no

00:11:43.580 I'm not a fan of Putin and Russia.

00:11:47.960 I think he is a murderous gangster of a man, not to be trusted.

00:11:53.580 Okay, but can you believe this?

00:11:56.180 Is this true? Is this right?

00:11:58.400 That he's not thinking rationally now.

00:12:00.720 Do you remember, I think during the first year or so of the war in Ukraine,

00:12:04.840 they kept coming out with stories, Putin's dying.

00:12:08.560 Mr Putin's dying.

00:12:10.140 They do it with Trump as well, don't they?

00:12:11.280 He's got a bit of a bruise on the back of the hand.

00:12:12.660 Trump's dying

00:12:13.640 No

00:12:17.160 He's got dementia

00:12:18.840 We saw Trump's hands shaking for half a second once

00:12:23.640 He's got dementia, he's got motor neurons

00:12:25.340 Same with Putin

00:12:27.740 He walked ever so gingerly once

00:12:30.400 He must be dying

00:12:31.280 It's just lies and nonsense, isn't it?

00:12:36.880 This

00:12:37.520 Diplomatic experts

00:12:39.440 Who?

00:12:40.780 And what's their

00:12:42.360 What's their motivation for talking

00:12:45.180 That's a good thing that history teaches you

00:12:46.720 The study of history

00:12:47.600 If you've got an account from someone

00:12:50.720 And you read the account

00:12:53.180 Then the very first set of questions you ask is

00:12:56.120 Who is the person writing this?

00:12:58.680 What's their motivation?

00:12:59.900 How close were they to the thing they're talking about in time?

00:13:02.840 What witnesses did they speak to?

00:13:04.940 Did they see it with their own actual eyes themselves?

00:13:07.420 Etc, etc, etc

00:13:08.120 Who is the person giving this account?

00:13:11.060 And what's their story

00:13:12.820 What's their motivations

00:13:15.360 In other words

00:13:17.700 Trying to gauge how credible

00:13:19.720 The account is

00:13:21.720 But on this we're just told

00:13:23.520 It's just a military and diplomatic expert

00:13:25.460 No idea who they are

00:13:27.200 Or what their motivations are for saying this

00:13:29.300 But he's not thinking rationally

00:13:31.760 I mean it may be true

00:13:34.180 Again, just to be clear

00:13:35.400 That may be true

00:13:36.720 It might just be

00:13:40.620 Bull plop

00:13:41.840 Mightn't it

00:13:42.720 To me

00:13:43.780 My gut

00:13:44.700 My spidey senses

00:13:46.480 Tell me

00:13:47.920 That's just nonsense

00:13:50.120 That's just the west

00:13:51.460 The western cabal

00:13:53.600 Of the deep state

00:13:55.360 Who seem hell bent

00:13:56.840 On starting a war with Russia

00:13:58.100 That's just their propaganda

00:14:00.740 Saying that

00:14:01.260 It might not be

00:14:02.480 He may well be

00:14:04.200 Thinking irrationally

00:14:06.080 And he's not

00:14:06.920 He's got a smaller and smaller

00:14:07.820 Inner circle

00:14:08.400 And he's not listening to

00:14:09.240 All the sensible voices

00:14:10.440 are gone what sensible voices for years you've been saying there aren't any but there were

00:14:14.520 but now they're gone i mean all right goes on saying they now want government to go faster

00:14:21.560 on defense spending all right so is it that their motivations are to increase spending for

00:14:28.640 themselves so they big up a boogeyman is that what's going on here is that what's going on here

00:14:35.740 not an accurate representation of reality but people who want bigger bigger budgets for

00:14:41.180 themselves in their own departments and they're prepared to scam under the whole world in order

00:14:46.380 to get that is that what's going on here is that what's really going on here it's cynical of me to

00:14:51.760 even suggest such a thing lord dannet he was a british um general wasn't he wasn't he lord

00:14:58.740 done it oh yeah the next words former british army chief said enemies are starting to encircle

00:15:06.060 the kremlin the danger is he might lash out he might might lash out i mean

00:15:11.360 might not any country might lash out or not at any given moment i mean it's just not

00:15:19.260 there's nothing really concrete there now they make out like putin's if you just took all this

00:15:25.560 Completely on face value

00:15:26.360 You might come to the conclusion

00:15:27.520 That Putin's a madman

00:15:29.460 Who's just about to nuke

00:15:30.960 Berlin or London

00:15:32.640 Or Kiev or something

00:15:33.960 He's just about to invade Finland

00:15:36.800 Or something

00:15:37.280 Scratch the surface

00:15:40.380 And it's like there's nothing there really

00:15:42.080 Is there?

00:15:43.040 Nothing substantial

00:15:43.880 Alright

00:15:44.960 Alright

00:15:45.780 I don't want to seem like

00:15:47.940 I genuinely love Putin

00:15:49.880 And the Kremlin

00:15:50.420 But

00:15:50.780 There it is

00:15:53.480 There it is

00:15:55.560 Trying to be reasonable, trying to be reasonable

00:15:58.000 Okay, the Tory graph, the daily Tory graph

00:16:02.800 German-owned Zionist slop

00:16:05.880 Such extremes are anti-Semitic to say that

00:16:10.820 It's an accurate description of what it is though, isn't it?

00:16:19.480 They seem to hate this country, you can't have a country

00:16:25.560 The Jews in Israel can have a country along their racial, religious and tribal lines

00:16:32.980 But we can't in this country

00:16:34.060 That's the editorial line from the Telegraph

00:16:35.980 How would you describe that?

00:16:41.220 What word might you use?

00:16:44.140 Subversive, perhaps?

00:16:48.500 If you work for the Telegraph, consider to have a good think about what you're a part of

00:16:52.780 have a little thinksy about what you're dealing with what the cog in the machine that you're a

00:17:00.480 part of you happy with that are you

00:17:04.000 okay all right something about that phoebe waller bridge don't care about her she's not a good writer

00:17:13.500 don't care about her at all okay argentina threat to falkland oil fields

00:17:21.240 Melia plans for sanctions on British firm

00:17:24.340 Set to trigger a new row over future of Ireland

00:17:27.260 Oh no

00:17:30.860 He's really scary

00:17:32.860 Okay

00:17:41.680 I mean I don't

00:17:44.000 I'm not

00:17:46.860 Where is it

00:17:47.740 Is it in the ITV news

00:17:49.480 There was a clip of the

00:17:51.240 if of me like talking was it um sorry i can't find it i'll just carry on um

00:17:58.920 yeah threatening again the headline is a bit more sensationalist than what's really happening here

00:18:06.680 threat to falkland oil fields it's not really much with that all all it is really is not like

00:18:12.840 he's not talking about he's going to deploy the argentinian navy you think our navy's crap and

00:18:17.800 undermanned undershipped you think out the royal navy is bad just have a look just google

00:18:24.440 just have a look on the wiki page of what the argentinian navy is now

00:18:31.080 have a look at the argentinian air force army you think ours is weak ours is poor

00:18:38.600 theirs is orders of magnitude worse it's all i've nearly said non-existent it's not non-existent

00:18:43.480 it's very very very poor have a look at their economy i think our economy is bad

00:18:48.880 theirs is way way worse better than it was but still in the doldrums should we say

00:18:56.240 recovering from a true crisis not that long ago their inflation was at like what 20 or 30

00:19:03.020 i haven't got a lot of money and their armed forces are much worse than ours so they're not

00:19:09.140 do anything militarily trump said oh i wouldn't help britain if argentina invaded the faulklands

00:19:14.820 again the us at least under his administration wouldn't help america well thanks for that so

00:19:20.180 much for the special relationship um so i highly doubt argentina would do anything in terms of

00:19:28.820 sort of military action kinetic weapons being fired so so you can do a sanction against the

00:19:35.700 a british oil firm that's drilling down there oh no oh no we might lose the argentinian market

00:19:43.960 so what really so what when you put sanctions on another country only works if it's like a big

00:19:51.860 chunk of the world or if your economy is gigantic like the usa or china if china or the u.s sanction

00:19:58.220 you that's a real concern a real worry it's like oh no right that will that will rework our economy

00:20:04.300 To some profound degree

00:20:06.420 Just that

00:20:07.020 Argentina

00:20:08.380 Section one oil drilling company

00:20:12.280 Yeah

00:20:14.460 I think we'll get

00:20:16.760 I think we'll be alright

00:20:17.560 Okay

00:20:19.780 Britain told to prepare

00:20:22.920 For food shortages

00:20:24.000 Once again the headline is far more

00:20:25.860 Serious sounding

00:20:27.060 Than you read the first few paragraphs

00:20:30.120 It's like oh okay

00:20:30.880 It's not anywhere near as bad as that suggests

00:20:33.740 it's just saying that one particular well the national audit office who aren't nobody is all

00:20:39.480 right but what they're actually saying is not there's going to be food shortages and you have

00:20:44.100 to stockpile food it's not that it's saying that we just need to be prepared for the possibility

00:20:49.480 future possibility of catastrophic events well hasn't that always been the case they talk about

00:20:56.240 more pandemics more like crazy weather patterns like really bad ones like tornadoes or whatever

00:21:03.720 And things like that

00:21:08.460 Massive, like, acts of God type catastrophic events

00:21:12.800 Well, that's always been the case, though, isn't it?

00:21:17.300 I mean, that's certainly not just started to be the case

00:21:22.780 You have to worry about our supply chains

00:21:25.060 In the face of catastrophic events anyway

00:21:29.720 but now the Telegraph are going with it front page prepare for food shortages

00:21:38.200 if something catastrophic happens that no one could have foreseen which has always been the

00:21:43.960 case they don't put that bit in the headline they don't put that bit

00:21:46.480 all right okay thanks for some more disingenuous reporting the Daily Telegraph

00:21:58.340 Well done for that

00:22:00.340 Airport chaos looms

00:22:03.200 Is that EU set to reinforce fingerprints rules

00:22:05.180 Oh sorry, enforce, but I think it's reinforce

00:22:07.180 Reinstate them

00:22:08.260 They've got to give you fingerprints

00:22:11.940 Hmm

00:22:14.480 Hmm

00:22:16.400 I don't like that myself

00:22:17.680 Next thing it is, I want to scan your iris

00:22:19.800 Or actually

00:22:21.760 Take an actual swab from the inside of your cheek

00:22:24.180 Or whatever

00:22:24.640 Before you're allowed to go to France

00:22:27.580 Or something

00:22:27.840 Oh, and that only applies to people that follow the rules

00:22:32.020 If you just want to break in illegally

00:22:33.300 And move across the continent illegally

00:22:35.400 None of that applies to you, apparently

00:22:36.700 Dangerous knife criminals

00:22:42.940 Here's one of the biggest stories today

00:22:44.680 Dangerous knife criminals let loose on streets

00:22:47.120 Warns Met Chief

00:22:48.060 The head of the Metropolitan Police

00:22:50.660 Sir Mark Rowley

00:22:52.040 Rowley? Rowley?

00:22:55.480 The head of the London Police

00:22:57.040 he says he's flabbergasted that's a quote flabbergasted that people that have been

00:23:02.260 caught on the streets with illegal knives which is most knives you're allowed to own knives

00:23:08.440 not every type of knife but various types of you're allowed to own them but walking around

00:23:13.140 the streets with them unless you've got a very very very good reason to like it's part of your

00:23:17.220 job i think maybe if you was taking your kitchen knife to a shoe repair place and a key cutting

00:23:24.100 place to get the knife sharpened maybe you'd get away with that that's not but you can't just walk

00:23:28.540 around the street with a samurai sword or one of those massive zombie machetes or whatever

00:23:32.920 or even just a big knife you can't do that that's illegal right and the story is that lots of people

00:23:37.840 young men in london that have been caught with illegal knives and guns and guns as well

00:23:45.640 they've been caught multiple times some of them as many as four times been caught breaking the

00:23:50.700 law straight up breaking the law but with these weapons that lots of them a few of them quite a

00:23:56.880 few of them just they just get let out they just get released because the courts and the magistrates

00:24:02.640 don't want to put them in prison because there's no places in prison so they just release them

00:24:08.060 straight out back onto the streets even though they're repeat offenders people who seemingly

00:24:11.000 won't stop walking around with a machete basically basically or a gun and we got multiple times

00:24:17.940 seemingly got no intention of just of stopping doing it and they just get released they just

00:24:23.620 get released and the head of the police in london is flabbergasted by that as am i as am i

00:24:37.780 could deport all the foreign people that are caught doing that for a start

00:24:41.380 report the 10 000 odd foreign nationals in our prisons that would release that would

00:24:45.380 free up 10 000 spots straight away wouldn't it could do that no that would be un-british

00:24:50.580 can't deport people ever that's un-british you have to allow your country to be flooded by

00:24:56.580 criminals otherwise you're not british more safe than legal routes if anything what we're importing

00:25:03.700 hundreds of thousands more net per year can we have a cap on can we can we re-migrate some of

00:25:10.020 of them? No, can't have that, bigot, Nazi. Alright, a cap on it? No, bigot, Nazi. Let's

00:25:14.740 have more safe and legal routes, if anything. Can we at least build more prisons there?

00:25:19.560 Nope. No money for that. Just let them out on the streets. Right. So you're trying to

00:25:27.740 make us unsafe. That's any conclusion you can come to then, isn't it? You're trying

00:25:32.900 to ruin the fabric of our society, trying to have a higher crime rate. You're actively

00:25:38.320 Trying to have a higher crime rate

00:25:39.800 Put more people in danger

00:25:41.080 What other conclusion can you come to?

00:25:44.680 Those sets of questions

00:25:45.480 You could do this, this, this and this and this

00:25:47.020 No, we're not going to do any of those things

00:25:48.840 Just going to release them into the public

00:25:51.180 Into the general population

00:25:52.620 Oh

00:25:54.340 It's funny, I thought

00:25:56.840 Call me old fashioned

00:25:57.740 Call me old fashioned

00:25:59.800 I thought it was the first job

00:26:01.960 The first charge of a government

00:26:05.200 To protect its people

00:26:07.320 Or at the very least to try and protect his people

00:26:11.160 At the very least to appear like you're doing that

00:26:14.600 No, all that's gone out the window

00:26:15.720 Even the appearance of it

00:26:17.660 Out the window now

00:26:19.480 No, it's going to release violent criminals

00:26:23.140 People that won't stop carrying around guns

00:26:25.160 And machetes, zombie knives

00:26:26.940 Just release them

00:26:28.000 Even the police

00:26:29.880 Even the woke police

00:26:32.660 The bleeding heart liberal weak-roisted police

00:26:35.500 Even their flabbergasted

00:26:36.700 Thanks Labour

00:26:42.400 Thanks Fabians

00:26:44.880 Thanks socialists

00:26:45.660 Well done for that

00:26:46.320 Good people of Makerfield

00:26:48.480 Well done

00:26:48.980 Faraj has emergency plan to quote fix Britain

00:26:54.160 Does he?

00:26:55.780 Does he?

00:26:59.060 I thought he said it was a political impossibility

00:27:01.420 To deport hundreds of thousands of people

00:27:03.100 Aren't Pakistan deporting hundreds

00:27:05.500 Nay, millions of Afghans

00:27:07.620 Back to Afghanistan right now

00:27:09.040 Isn't Iran doing that?

00:27:11.780 Aren't there countless examples

00:27:13.340 Throughout history

00:27:14.060 Of countries deporting hundreds of thousands

00:27:16.240 If not millions of people

00:27:17.300 In India do it to us

00:27:19.960 At the end of the empire

00:27:22.160 When the British Raj came to an end

00:27:24.300 In the late 1940s

00:27:25.140 There are loads and loads and loads

00:27:26.720 Of examples throughout history

00:27:28.020 Where a country

00:27:28.580 If you've got a government with some bulls

00:27:30.240 Just do it

00:27:31.060 It's happening right now

00:27:32.620 In various places across the world

00:27:34.360 But Nigel Farage says it's a political impossibility

00:27:36.820 Because you can't alienate Islam, you know

00:27:38.760 Says old Nigel Farage

00:27:41.420 You can't do it

00:27:42.620 Because if you do that, you lose

00:27:44.020 You lose

00:27:44.660 But he's got a plan to fix Britain

00:27:48.040 Has he?

00:27:49.960 Has he?

00:27:51.800 And by fix, he means manage the decline

00:27:53.900 Ever so slightly more slowly

00:27:55.920 That's what he means

00:27:56.960 Move the deck chairs around

00:28:00.420 On the sinking Titanic

00:28:01.860 Half an inch instead of two mil

00:28:04.280 Yeah, well done. Great. Good plan. Good plan.

00:28:11.280 Right, that cup of tea is dead. I'll move on to my backup water.

00:28:19.280 I'm drinking it from a mug. Some people say,

00:28:21.280 You don't drink water from a mug. You drink it from a glass. Come on, man.

00:28:24.280 It's uncivilised. Well, there it is.

00:32:31.640 I won't help Britain if Argentina invades Falklands

00:32:36.540 Well, thanks

00:32:37.020 The Americans didn't do much in 82, did they, to be fair

00:32:45.400 They did offer to help a bit

00:32:48.120 They did say

00:32:48.640 If both our aircraft carriers got sunk or something

00:32:51.720 They would lend us an aircraft carrier

00:32:53.580 Or something else, talk about that

00:32:54.520 Diplomatically they kind of helped

00:32:56.880 Kind of

00:32:58.040 They weren't a detriment to our war effort

00:33:00.740 During the Maggie years

00:33:02.600 The early Maggie years

00:33:03.600 But now Trump's saying it wouldn't help at all

00:33:06.120 Well thanks, thanks

00:33:07.420 So much for the special relationship

00:33:09.080 Your country was not there to help me over Iran

00:33:13.340 US President Walz

00:33:15.160 oh so

00:33:16.600 so that's how it is is it

00:33:18.960 if we want anything from you ever

00:33:21.860 we have to do whatever you say at all times

00:33:23.940 like some sort of prison bitch

00:33:25.260 so bibi netanyahu

00:33:28.020 has got his thumb on your forehead

00:33:29.420 and we have to jump and if we don't you won't help us

00:33:31.920 with anything ever okay I get it I understand

00:33:33.940 alright then cheers cheers Donald

00:33:35.820 cheers for that

00:33:37.740 the metro

00:33:39.900 ugh

00:33:40.380 gross

00:33:42.100 gross

00:33:45.160 Pure sedition, subversion, filth, globalist, anti-white, anti-British, filth.

00:33:54.380 I'd end it if it were me.

00:33:56.760 In Beau's Britain, I'd pass an edict, no, I'd pass an act of parliament,

00:34:02.840 saying that if your paper is shown to be truly subversive, seditious.

00:34:06.700 Yeah, sedition act, yeah, yeah.

00:34:10.120 Some sort of sedition act.

00:34:11.140 Oh, that's very authoritarian, but good, yeah, good.

00:34:15.780 Yeah, it needs it then.

00:34:17.500 We need it.

00:34:22.400 Thought this summer was a sculpture.

00:34:26.100 Not really, there's a few hot days.

00:34:27.740 Okay.

00:34:29.000 It's just a summer.

00:34:30.580 Next year's going to be hot as L, El Nino.

00:34:35.460 UN Chief's supersized catastrophe warning

00:34:38.180 as El Nino tipped to blow apart temperature records.

00:34:42.480 It's funny, when you read it,

00:34:44.520 they now conflate the two things

00:34:49.740 of it being really, really wet and rainy and flooding

00:34:53.540 and it being super hot and heat waves and a drought.

00:34:57.460 They just say both of them at the same time.

00:35:02.420 Truly sort of insane 1984 style double think, double speak.

00:35:08.180 They went from

00:35:10.640 Saying how dry it is

00:35:12.960 And how hot it is

00:35:13.640 And how terrible that is

00:35:14.560 And that's a climate

00:35:15.300 Climate problem

00:35:17.180 Man-made climate change

00:35:20.300 475 parts per million of CO2 in the atmosphere

00:35:25.920 Is tiny, tiny

00:35:27.040 Historically low

00:35:28.700 In terms of the Earth's history

00:35:30.600 Nonetheless

00:35:31.060 Only half of that

00:35:32.520 A bit more than half maybe

00:35:33.380 Is man-made

00:35:34.140 Right

00:35:35.220 Despite the nonsense of that argument

00:35:37.040 They would usually leave a small space

00:35:40.760 Between flipping the script from that

00:35:43.740 To it's flooding

00:35:45.260 It's really wet and flooding

00:35:46.940 And that that is part of

00:35:49.740 Part of global climate change

00:35:53.460 Now they just say it all in one go

00:35:54.920 All in one sentence

00:35:55.580 All in one breath

00:35:56.160 It's both too hot and too wet

00:35:59.540 And all of it is man-made climate change

00:36:02.300 And if you don't see the nonsense of it

00:36:08.620 What can I say

00:36:10.540 You just insist

00:36:11.960 Yeah, the Earth's climate is in flux

00:36:14.700 Yeah, it is in flux

00:36:16.600 It will always be in flux

00:36:17.980 Absolutely always

00:36:19.080 One of the most complicated things

00:36:21.040 Of all

00:36:22.200 Is the Earth's weather

00:36:23.860 It can't

00:36:24.960 The world's supercomputers can't map it

00:36:27.300 That far into the future

00:36:28.580 Because it's so complex

00:36:30.220 are there certain things in maths that are problems to this day

00:36:34.000 like mapping and understanding turbulence in the air

00:36:37.120 that's so complicated that supercomputers can't hack it

00:36:40.300 same with weather patterns

00:36:42.200 all the world's supercomputers working on the problem

00:36:46.020 can't predict with any accuracy what the Earth's weather will do

00:36:49.600 much into the future, right

00:36:51.600 it's an unbelievably complex thing

00:36:55.460 okay, so the Earth's climate will always be in flux

00:36:58.300 we don't know where it's going to go

00:37:00.120 Most geologists say we're in the middle of an interglacial period

00:37:03.940 If anything, over the next few thousand years

00:37:06.520 The next few days or weeks or years even

00:37:08.820 The next few thousand years

00:37:10.120 Glaciation will return

00:37:12.860 That's what they say, that's what they think

00:37:14.480 We're not in the middle of some runaway greenhouse effect like Venus

00:37:18.460 Nothing like it

00:37:19.760 Nothing close to it

00:37:21.500 If anything, the next truly gigantic, catastrophic, civilisational level threat

00:37:29.020 Weather patterns will probably be

00:37:31.060 A mini ice age or an ice age

00:37:32.780 A period of glaciation

00:37:34.460 But okay

00:37:36.480 El Nino next year

00:37:38.180 Is going to be supersized

00:37:40.420 We need to worry about it

00:37:42.240 We need to change our politics and the way we live

00:37:44.360 And our economies and everything on the strength of that

00:37:46.200 A UN chief has said

00:37:48.900 Don't trust the UN as far as I can

00:37:52.320 As far as I can

00:37:53.800 CO2 has been significant, orders of magnitude higher than it is today

00:38:07.120 What did we get?

00:38:09.660 Megaflora and megafauna, that's what we got

00:38:11.440 We didn't get a runaway greenhouse effect like Venus

00:38:14.840 Not even close, not remotely

00:38:23.800 Someone in the chat said, 150 parts per million CO2, life ceases.

00:38:31.420 You don't know what you're talking about, I'm afraid.

00:38:33.200 It's already, isn't it, at 400, 450, 475 parts per million.

00:38:40.300 And that's an all-time low.

00:38:43.180 If not an all-time, all-time low.

00:38:44.820 Close to an all-time low.

00:38:45.980 Well, not an all-time low.

00:38:47.600 It was as low as 200, 275 before the Industrial Revolution, something like that.

00:38:51.520 Or in the early 20th century, late 19th century

00:38:54.280 So not all time, all time low

00:38:55.660 Man-made CO2 has bumped it up a little bit

00:38:59.120 Nonetheless, that level of where it is now

00:39:01.020 On terms of like geological time frames

00:39:03.600 Is very, very, very, very, very low

00:39:07.040 Extremely low

00:39:08.160 Why our plants and insects are as small as they are

00:39:12.700 Compared to sort of dinosaur times

00:39:14.760 Cotaceous times

00:39:15.760 Triassic times or whatever

00:39:17.540 150 parts per million

00:39:20.620 and life ceases. Where did you get that from? Where did you hear that? Why do you think

00:39:24.340 that's true? Nonsense. Someone else says, don't look at the chat. Yeah, yeah, good idea.

00:39:30.940 Good idea. All right, let's move on. It's nearly always a distraction. I just shouldn't

00:39:35.860 do it. All right. Garfunkel said something. Don't care. Just sing the songs, dude. Don't

00:39:41.200 care about you or what you say or your thoughts or feelings, like nearly all celebrities.

00:39:44.600 Don't care about your feud with Paul Simon. Just sing the songs or don't. That's it.

00:39:48.820 It all comes back to singing

00:39:52.400 Yeah, good

00:39:52.940 Do you need to say that?

00:39:54.280 Do we need to hear that from Art Garfunkel?

00:39:55.980 Right, okay, The Guardian

00:39:57.060 Oh, oh

00:39:57.640 The Guardian, truly sickening

00:40:00.180 Stumble-turning

00:40:00.840 Oh, there's a Guardian headline

00:40:03.100 Oh, oh

00:40:03.820 Yeah, gross

00:40:11.280 Absolutely gross

00:40:12.520 Gloria Steinem

00:40:16.380 The greatest trailblazing feminist campaigner dies at 92

00:40:20.020 Shame

00:40:21.120 She absolutely wasn't subversive

00:40:24.580 She absolutely didn't ruin the mind of more than one generation of women

00:40:29.620 Gloria Steinem

00:40:32.160 Filth

00:40:36.800 Britain, is it too soon? Oh, is it too soon?

00:40:40.780 Don't care

00:40:41.220 If Christopher Hitchens didn't care

00:40:44.360 About being rude

00:40:46.320 About someone

00:40:47.180 Shortly after they died

00:40:48.840 Then I don't care

00:40:49.460 She was filth

00:40:51.480 She was gross

00:40:52.520 Terrible

00:40:53.560 Terrible

00:40:54.620 Britain warned to get ready

00:40:58.000 For biggest El Nino

00:40:58.980 In a millennium

00:41:00.060 Yeah alright

00:41:00.820 Okay I just don't

00:41:01.660 It's just nonsense

00:41:02.740 I find one scientist

00:41:04.500 That will say that

00:41:05.300 Hasn't happened yet

00:41:06.440 Hasn't even happened yet

00:41:08.000 They're worrying about

00:41:08.900 Next summer already

00:41:09.880 That's what that is

00:41:10.720 Oh it's El Nino next year

00:41:12.060 Yeah

00:41:12.300 Well

00:41:14.360 it's more complicated than that it's over the early next year but summer in the northern

00:41:19.200 hemisphere there's more to it than that but it's weather patterns and weather that hasn't

00:41:22.280 happened yet but it's going to be the biggest one in a millennium is it calm down

00:41:29.360 okay the ft the financial times strained tires as u.s uh u.s sailors faced mixed greetings so

00:41:39.940 one of the big u.s aircraft carriers is it the abraham lincoln i think it might be the abraham

00:41:43.660 Lincoln, where it went on the longest deployment it's ever had, like over 200 days in the Persian

00:41:51.640 Gulf, like the Gulf of Aden, the Indian Ocean. And they've finally got some R&R, rest and

00:41:59.020 recuperation. They've finally got a bit of downtime. They sailed them to Pattaya in Thailand.

00:42:04.820 That's a good, all I'll say is Patshu is known as a good time town

00:42:12.680 Should we say that? Should we leave it at that?

00:42:19.060 If you want to, if sailors want to have a good time

00:42:21.440 On a bit of shore leave

00:42:25.660 They've got a few buckaroos in their pocket, burning a hole in their pocket

00:42:29.280 And they want to have a good time and perhaps contract venereal disease

00:42:33.560 then there's no place better in the world to go than Patia.

00:42:39.140 And they've been greeted with mixed feelings from the tyres.

00:42:47.160 Well, it's money, isn't it?

00:42:49.580 It's effectively tourism.

00:42:52.600 Various different stripes of tourism.

00:42:56.060 All right.

00:42:57.280 Oh, here's an interesting story.

00:42:58.160 Europe faces winter with lowest ever gas reserves

00:43:01.820 As Gulf-led shortages buy

00:43:04.180 Kudos to someone in the superchats yesterday

00:43:06.720 I can't remember who he was, apologies

00:43:07.800 When I read this article this morning

00:43:11.120 I was like, ah, someone in the superchats said that yesterday

00:43:14.480 What was it? Who was it? What was their name?

00:43:16.260 I can't remember

00:43:16.740 If you do a superchat, give yourself a pat on the back

00:43:19.380 Mention it

00:43:19.900 They were absolutely right

00:43:20.960 They called it ahead of time, absolutely

00:43:22.640 Yeah

00:43:23.160 That Britain has got, like, all-time low

00:43:27.700 national reserves of natural gas is it natural gas and crude heading into the winter it's not

00:43:34.800 just anyway look europe the whole of europe faces winter with lowest ever gas reserves

00:43:39.620 as gulf ledge lead shortages are backed fears over quote compound shock

00:43:45.800 we're talking about systems failure right like a house of cars like dominoes when one thing fails

00:43:52.520 Loads of other things as a knock-on effect will fail

00:43:55.500 Time running out to fill storage

00:43:59.380 Brussels decides not to intervene

00:44:01.960 Is that the whole point of having supranational bodies

00:44:05.700 Supranational structures to help in this sort of situation

00:44:12.200 Anyway, the person who called it, well done

00:44:15.560 Well done, yeah, I mean

00:44:18.280 It does seem to be an issue or concern

00:44:21.740 that even the proper professional journalists

00:44:26.460 at the Financial Times picked up on.

00:44:29.700 Hmm, it'd be a worry.

00:44:31.700 And they've got a few months to sort it out

00:44:33.140 if they want to, if they've got the political will to.

00:44:36.900 Unless they want us to have blackouts.

00:44:41.640 And it says, it says like,

00:44:43.720 there may well be blackouts

00:44:45.360 and even water shortages, briefly,

00:44:48.260 for like a day here or there.

00:44:49.680 Again, the very fabric of our country and society

00:44:54.720 Falling apart, failing to work

00:44:56.680 I mean, it's okay if you're young

00:45:01.240 Okay, ish, it's better slightly

00:45:03.720 If you're young, reasonably fit

00:45:05.880 And savvy enough to keep your eye on what's going on

00:45:09.620 You're like, oh, there may well be power outages in winter

00:45:12.580 So I'll make sure that I'll have an extra jumper

00:45:15.720 An extra woolly

00:45:16.800 I might have to wear my coat and a wool hat indoors

00:45:20.760 as much of a humiliation as that is for a first world country

00:45:24.080 supposedly first world country

00:45:25.680 it's not going to kill me

00:45:27.120 it's an inconvenience and an embarrassment

00:45:30.260 it's not going to kill me

00:45:31.660 but for some people it will

00:45:32.940 some old people that can't get around

00:45:35.180 they're basically bedridden or chair ridden

00:45:39.060 more or less

00:45:40.220 their helper, their nurse, whatever

00:45:44.200 even the members of their own family can't get to them

00:45:46.260 For whatever reason

00:45:47.060 And they freeze to death

00:45:48.260 I think, Beau, that's an extreme scenario

00:45:52.040 That wouldn't happen

00:45:53.960 But it does happen every year

00:45:55.000 Oh no, it does happen every year

00:45:56.680 That happens

00:45:57.280 Exactly that

00:45:58.260 Exactly that

00:45:58.960 Our government

00:46:08.080 And even Brussels

00:46:09.640 Don't seem to have that as a higher priority

00:46:12.860 To make sure that doesn't happen every year

00:46:18.960 A higher priority from them

00:46:22.320 Is making sure that there's more safe and legal routes

00:46:24.620 A higher priority for them

00:46:26.140 Is making sure that they pay for

00:46:28.420 Housing and benefits of the people that are invading us

00:46:31.520 Whose crime rate per capita

00:46:33.500 Violent crime, sex crime, organised crime

00:46:35.360 Is through the roof

00:46:36.020 They're a higher priority

00:46:38.520 Than our old people freezing to death

00:46:42.860 Again, if I mischaracterise that, I haven't, have I?

00:46:50.000 That is exactly what's going on.

00:46:51.680 The higher priority for them is to release violent criminals early.

00:46:56.840 They'd rather spend political capital, time and energy on that, ensuring that happens.

00:47:05.540 Madness.

00:47:06.060 Our own governments

00:47:08.900 Are increasing

00:47:10.620 It's increasingly obvious to me

00:47:12.120 And most not to me

00:47:13.300 I've got some special brilliant insight

00:47:15.220 It's increasingly obvious to anyone with eyeballs

00:47:17.300 And ear balls

00:47:18.680 That they are our enemies

00:47:22.460 Working against us

00:47:23.540 Working against our interest

00:47:24.800 From a hundred different vectors all at once

00:47:27.540 Okay, that's globalism for you

00:47:32.260 That's leftist politics for you

00:47:35.040 What do you mean leftists? The Toys are also doing it

00:47:38.700 They are left

00:47:39.220 They are globalists

00:47:40.940 Okay, the times, the venerable times

00:47:44.940 It's so venerable

00:47:45.800 Army hauls training exercise to save money

00:47:49.440 MOD accused of national dereliction of duty

00:47:52.520 Yeah, oh yeah

00:47:53.620 They've got to save, apparently they've got to save £30 million ASAP

00:47:58.400 They needed to have saved £30 million yesterday

00:48:01.960 So they're halting some training

00:48:03.840 Not all training

00:48:05.200 But just

00:48:05.620 It's actually relatively

00:48:06.500 Again when you read

00:48:07.600 Some of the details

00:48:08.880 It's not as bad

00:48:09.700 As

00:48:09.880 Not quite as bad

00:48:11.020 As the headline suggests

00:48:12.480 It's a relatively small exercise

00:48:14.000 Was halted

00:48:14.680 Because they need to save money

00:48:15.700 They haven't got the money to do it

00:48:17.040 Yeah

00:48:17.980 It wouldn't be that much

00:48:19.760 For a big

00:48:20.080 It would still be a bit of

00:48:21.160 Embarrassing

00:48:21.800 A bit of a humiliation

00:48:22.440 Wouldn't it

00:48:22.900 It wouldn't matter too much

00:48:24.320 If we weren't

00:48:25.200 On some level

00:48:27.440 Trying to start a war

00:48:28.980 With a much bigger

00:48:29.980 More powerful

00:48:31.120 Army

00:48:33.080 Russia's armed forces are more veteran now than ours, bigger than ours

00:48:41.440 Their industrial capacity is much bigger than ours

00:48:44.780 Their population is bigger than ours

00:48:46.380 They're insanely resource rich, Russia

00:48:50.500 Their economy is not giant

00:48:52.460 They've got quite bad interest rates actually

00:48:55.240 I think interest rates in Russia now are like 14%

00:48:57.880 Their economy isn't great

00:48:59.340 They're insanely resource rich

00:49:01.880 Insanely

00:49:03.780 We're a tiny little island

00:49:06.100 Greece was poor

00:49:06.960 Very poor

00:49:08.000 We're seemingly trying to start a war with them

00:49:15.360 Keep poking the bear in the eye with a stick

00:49:18.420 Yet we haven't got enough money to do a bit of training

00:49:22.820 Small training, this is a small training exercise

00:49:24.780 A relatively small training exercise

00:49:26.340 When you read the details of it

00:49:28.000 And we can't afford it

00:49:31.880 We've got a Royal Navy that hasn't got enough cruisers or destroyers to make a carrier group.

00:49:37.680 Two aircraft carriers, but not enough ships for an actual carrier group.

00:49:42.580 How does that make sense? How did that...

00:49:47.400 We're supposed to be on a war footing with Russia.

00:49:50.280 We've got to be prepared for a war with Russia.

00:49:52.820 Can we at least spend 3% on defence then? No.

00:49:56.120 No.

00:49:57.700 What are you doing?

00:49:58.720 Again, it's difficult to come to any other conclusion

00:50:02.140 Than that they're trying to put us in danger

00:50:04.800 From a number of different angles all at once

00:50:07.340 Whether it's just from Afghan and Somali

00:50:10.560 Rapists and murderers they're letting in, unvetted

00:50:12.980 Or from the Kremlin

00:50:14.800 Trying to put us in danger

00:50:21.160 Wait, oh, we've got dangerous people already in our prisons

00:50:24.520 Or let them out

00:50:25.480 Remember, our goal

00:50:27.000 our fabian goal is to ruin the society to bring about some sort of communist revolution remember

00:50:34.180 that's our goal guys so there's loads of dangerous people in prisons why are we keeping them in

00:50:38.220 prison let them out let them out again is that tinfoil hat nonsense i'm talking there is it

00:50:46.720 or is it an accurate description of what's happening

00:50:50.420 what do you decide

00:50:53.380 look at these freaks look at them actually and it burnham's wife's all right i don't think she's

00:51:00.660 done anything wrong of the marrying andy burnham but look at him look look at this smiling buffoon

00:51:06.760 look at him he's not gonna be president very long is he he can't he can't rewrite he can't

00:51:11.400 he's not allowed by french law to run again

00:51:13.040 And his odd

00:51:17.580 Very odd wife

00:51:18.800 You can't accuse her of being born a man

00:51:21.120 And I'm not

00:51:22.460 She's very litigious

00:51:24.280 You can't accuse her of that

00:51:26.100 Some have before and they've found themselves in hot water legally

00:51:29.420 So I'm not doing that

00:51:31.480 I wouldn't do that

00:51:33.740 She is odd

00:51:35.260 Isn't she

00:51:35.960 She's a bit of an odd fish

00:51:38.460 French migrant patrols can't enter water

00:51:49.160 That's what they're saying

00:51:50.520 Despite the amount of money we sent

00:51:53.000 The amount of cops there

00:51:53.860 Increasing the cops

00:51:54.740 That if a dinghy is able to actually get to the water

00:51:58.880 As soon as that happens

00:52:01.820 The French cops can't do anything

00:52:02.880 According to them

00:52:04.340 According to them, they're saying

00:52:05.360 If the dinghy gets in the water, that's it

00:52:09.020 it's still in french waters though isn't it it's still in your still surely

00:52:12.460 part of your territory part of your um yeah it's still part it's still in your jurisdiction isn't

00:52:19.740 it no no the moment that dinghy touches the water that's it we can't do anything

00:52:26.620 okay all right the express pure subversive flop you can read your express now it's good paper

00:52:33.660 it's not a good paper i'm being sarcastic that's an alan partridge quote it's it's it's one of

00:52:41.000 the more subversive ones because you know it pretends it's right of center doesn't it

00:52:45.520 pretends it's sort of got a nativist interest at heart pretends it's patriotic to some extent

00:52:49.860 sometimes but it's not it's not it will try and ruin people that are

00:52:57.220 Not even like

00:53:00.060 Rupert Lowe

00:53:01.920 Or Charlie Downs

00:53:02.720 People far to the left of that

00:53:04.400 Far to the left of that

00:53:06.240 People that are reformed people

00:53:09.780 They'll try and ruin them

00:53:12.520 That's what the Express is

00:53:15.220 That's who the Express are

00:53:16.520 Globalists

00:53:20.820 Traitors, enemies

00:53:22.360 Olukemu Badanoch

00:53:26.020 The Nigerian anchor baby

00:53:27.940 Bizarrely finds herself

00:53:29.140 LARPing as

00:53:30.540 The leader of the opposition

00:53:31.660 Says

00:53:32.320 We must act now

00:53:34.100 Before it's too late

00:53:35.120 Tory leader

00:53:36.860 Olukemu Olufantu Badanoch

00:53:39.220 The Nigerian anchor baby

00:53:41.900 Calls for defence spending

00:53:43.340 To rise every year

00:53:44.420 As Russian threat grows

00:53:45.940 Do you trust her?

00:53:48.960 Do you want her to be your Prime Minister?

00:53:53.440 She's a Nigerian person

00:53:55.120 If she wants to be involved in politics

00:53:58.540 Shouldn't she be involved in politics in Nigeria

00:54:01.900 Seeing that's the land of her forefathers

00:54:04.000 Just asking

00:54:11.860 That's an absolutely reasonable question

00:54:14.100 People will say

00:54:15.640 That's a completely outrageous

00:54:18.520 Anti-British

00:54:20.060 Racist, bigoted, fascist thing

00:54:22.680 To say, to ask that question

00:54:24.420 No it isn't, it's perfectly reasonable

00:54:27.080 It's perfectly reasonable

00:54:29.400 Her mother came here

00:54:30.600 In order to have a birth

00:54:33.860 On the NHS

00:54:34.500 And then that baby anchors that family here

00:54:44.320 That's who she is

00:54:45.240 That's what the Tory party

00:54:48.340 Decided to elect

00:54:49.560 As its leader

00:54:50.700 And we're supposed to be like

00:54:51.800 Oh great, brilliant, yeah

00:54:52.860 Have her as Prime Minister

00:54:53.960 Have her in at number 10

00:54:55.440 Controlling all policy

00:55:00.600 Gross

00:55:01.680 Gross

00:55:03.100 You want to be in power

00:55:07.100 You desire, you covet power

00:55:09.560 Do you, Olukemi

00:55:10.660 Go to Nigeria, try and get some there

00:55:13.360 Your real country

00:55:15.460 The Daily Mail, Pure Slop

00:55:20.000 Gloria Steinem's dead, don't care

00:55:21.600 It's for the best, isn't it?

00:55:23.960 Something about Sidney Sweeney, don't care about that

00:55:27.280 Scotland Yardboss flabbergasted

00:55:30.100 Serious knife crime and firearm offenders

00:55:32.160 Bailed again and again

00:55:33.240 Met chief stunned by release of serial criminals

00:55:35.940 Well we've talked about that haven't we

00:55:36.900 The Mirror

00:55:37.560 Yeah they've got reform derangement syndrome

00:55:41.260 Real bad

00:55:42.040 You couldn't make it up

00:55:44.660 Reform

00:55:45.280 Back Britain with our Chinese tact

00:55:48.100 Frages number two

00:55:50.140 Dicey Ticey, Richard Ticey

00:55:51.740 Slates foreign imports

00:55:53.100 while party flogs them on merch store this is weak sauce really right reform there's another

00:55:59.860 under other sort of right of center right leaning even centrist parties have got all sorts of

00:56:04.820 about you know importing really cheap foreign tap why don't we why don't we manufacture more

00:56:13.240 things for ourselves and yet also but apparently because reform have got their conference going on

00:56:19.020 right now in Birmingham on their merch store you can buy some items that have been made in China

00:56:25.000 okay if you really want to be if you want to be as unkind as possible if you want to be as

00:56:31.920 uncharitable as possible you could describe that as the tiniest bit of hypocrisy the tiniest bit

00:56:40.780 of probably an oversight like Richard Tice checks where every tiny bit of merch was manufactured

00:56:48.320 just to check it's not chinese of course not of course not loads near near not i was saying nearly

00:56:56.140 everything loads and loads of things are manufactured and made in china it's very very

00:57:00.720 difficult to avoid that isn't it very very very difficult okay he's going to be as uncharitable

00:57:06.720 as possible you might be able to say that you're like oh that's the level it should rise to like

00:57:10.820 oh that's a bit it's less than that isn't it it's like it's a little bit funny

00:57:15.420 Reform talk about Chinese tat

00:57:18.440 But there's some Chinese tat there

00:57:19.860 Ever so slightly ironic

00:57:22.840 1% of irony there

00:57:25.620 Not front page news

00:57:27.220 Is it

00:57:27.740 Of everything that's going on in the world

00:57:29.920 That's not like a breaking news

00:57:31.580 That's not a gotcha, is it

00:57:33.180 Reform and tax

00:57:36.860 Guilty of hypocrisy

00:57:38.160 Rank hypocrisy, is it

00:57:39.580 Calm down

00:57:40.600 Calm down

00:57:41.740 Really

00:57:42.720 Really

00:57:44.160 Ridiculous

00:57:45.080 Alright, The Star, The Daily Star, what sloppy Joe are they trying to slap in our face today?

00:57:49.460 Pure slop

00:57:49.960 Truck gang steals 70,000 pints

00:57:53.220 Guinness

00:57:54.940 Two trucks full of barrels of Guinness

00:57:57.300 800 barrels of Guinness

00:57:58.760 Apparently it's about 70,000 pints worth

00:58:02.340 It was stolen

00:58:04.280 The Great Guinness Robbery

00:58:08.720 That's the most important thing going on in the whole world right now

00:58:13.440 According to the Star

00:58:14.620 According to the senior editors at the Star

00:58:16.200 It's not journalism, is it?

00:58:22.380 In the classic sense

00:58:23.400 In any real sense

00:58:24.220 It's not journalism, is it?

00:58:26.260 If you want to print a story like that

00:58:27.900 Like inside the paper

00:58:29.040 Okay

00:58:29.400 Front page though

00:58:30.400 Headline, front page

00:58:32.180 The whole front page, more or less

00:58:33.340 That

00:58:34.060 It's all a distraction, isn't it?

00:58:38.400 It's lying by omission

00:58:39.380 What are you not telling us today?

00:58:41.640 Not just the Star

00:59:25.880 That we're stupid

00:59:26.600 We're not

00:59:28.660 A lot of people are of course

00:59:29.840 But most people aren't

00:59:31.240 Most people aren't

00:59:32.200 They bank on it

00:59:34.200 Alright

00:59:36.840 The sun

01:00:18.700 Alright, that's it

01:00:21.200 That's Fleet Street today basically, essentially

01:00:23.480 Increasingly absurd and infuriating, maddening front pages

01:00:28.120 Stupid

01:00:33.340 It's stupid

01:00:35.380 Checking with crude

01:00:38.140 Climbing ever so slightly higher

01:00:41.840 Getting up towards that

01:00:43.480 Arbitrary

01:00:45.640 $100 a barrel

01:00:48.340 Point

01:00:49.120 Brent crude edging up

01:00:51.540 $95.5 a barrel

01:00:53.180 West Texas

01:00:54.620 $91.5 a barrel

01:00:56.980 I'm in higher and higher

01:00:58.980 Alright

01:01:01.660 Let's have a look at our poll

01:01:02.900 We have a look at our poll this time of the day don't we

01:01:05.020 What did we do on our poll today?

01:01:07.200 Let's have a look.

01:01:08.560 What have we got?

01:01:10.200 Okay.

01:01:11.320 Nearly 1,200 votes on that.

01:01:14.080 Says, we asked you guys,

01:01:15.640 do you,

01:01:16.700 I'm sorry,

01:01:17.200 who do you think poses a more significant existential threat to Britain?

01:01:22.000 And the options we gave you were external governments and our own government.

01:01:27.440 Huh.

01:01:27.900 That's very apt for everything I've been talking about today.

01:01:29.840 Of course, we decide on what the poll is going to be before the show starts.

01:01:34.120 Usually.

01:01:35.020 just so happens it dovetailed always perfectly with what I ended up talking about today

01:01:38.980 okay I think that was a carefully choreographed thing no

01:01:43.740 so we asked you external governments or our own government what's more of an existential threat

01:01:51.500 oh well our own government wins that to the tune of 95% over 1200 votes 95% if you said

01:02:00.000 our own government yeah and I would agree if I was taking that poll I wouldn't think about it

01:02:04.020 more than a moment before clicking our government it's not that external governments don't pose

01:02:08.980 any threat of course they do we're saying we asked you which one poses more of a significant threat

01:02:14.740 yeah our own government yeah it does doesn't it yeah five percent of you though say external

01:02:20.900 governments who's that five percent who are you get out this isn't the podcast for you

01:02:24.580 you're in the wrong place obviously go on bugger off don't let the door hit you in the ass on the

01:02:29.380 the way out jog on don't go don't go don't leave me that was a joke i was joking i still love you

01:02:36.680 baby we can make this work don't go i just get scared sometimes don't leave me

01:02:40.380 all right that joke's not even close to getting old for me not even close okay

01:02:49.460 let's have a look what else have we got in the uh it's already gone nine bloody hell

01:02:54.280 There wasn't that many other stories

01:02:59.040 Of like real significance

01:03:00.540 There's a number of stories

01:03:01.720 Rumbling on

01:03:02.820 Oh there's stuff all about reform

01:03:04.020 They sat down

01:03:05.980 A little bit about reform then

01:03:07.920 Because it is in the news a lot today

01:03:10.060 A couple of different times

01:03:13.660 A couple of different people in reform

01:03:15.360 James Orr was one of them

01:03:16.380 I think we had James Orr on here one time

01:03:18.880 I think Conor Tomlinson

01:03:20.500 I think old Con Tom

01:03:23.320 I think he had James Orr in here

01:03:27.060 A couple of years ago

01:03:28.500 I can't remember exactly

01:03:29.460 I think he did

01:03:29.900 Anyway

01:03:30.140 One of them was James Orr

01:03:31.360 One of them was a guy

01:03:32.800 That's just

01:03:33.420 One of Nigel Farage's

01:03:34.920 Close aides

01:03:36.220 Dan Dukes

01:03:38.520 This gentleman

01:03:40.320 Yeah

01:03:41.560 I think Channel

01:03:42.700 Yeah it's Channel 4

01:03:43.380 Channel 4 has done an expose

01:03:44.660 They're going to

01:03:45.300 They've done a documentary about it

01:03:46.820 Basically

01:03:48.760 Basically all you need to know

01:03:50.100 Is that reform

01:03:51.360 In a couple of different ways

01:03:52.440 At least a couple of different times

01:03:53.760 Trying to make money

01:03:56.140 Get money

01:03:56.780 That is a big part of politics

01:03:59.000 If you haven't got enough money

01:04:00.640 You're not going to go anywhere

01:04:01.740 You need to get money

01:04:02.820 The question is

01:04:04.000 Whether you get it from

01:04:04.880 Legitimate sources or not

01:04:06.180 That's what the thing is

01:04:08.740 And so if people want to donate

01:04:11.600 Very rich people perhaps

01:04:12.780 Want to donate

01:04:13.580 They can

01:04:14.380 There's all sorts of rules and laws

01:04:16.740 About

01:04:17.220 If they're foreign though

01:04:19.880 Even just American

01:04:21.920 there's all sorts of laws about that you can't take money from foreign people okay

01:04:27.600 there's all sorts of laws all sorts of rules makes like a lot of things like most things

01:04:35.020 really there's more than one way to skin a cat there's ways to get around it if you want to

01:04:39.480 you want to fly want to sail close to the wind as well as you could get around it by the letter

01:04:45.560 Of the law

01:04:46.020 And has Farage and Reform

01:04:49.100 Done that

01:04:50.200 Have they sailed close to the wind at all

01:04:52.740 Or have they truly broken rules

01:04:55.020 Even laws

01:04:55.840 I don't know

01:04:57.960 I'll wait for it to all shake out

01:05:00.880 I'm certainly not going to accuse them

01:05:03.220 Of definitely having broken laws

01:05:04.720 I don't know, we'll see

01:05:06.540 But Channel 4

01:05:07.600 And their activist reporters

01:05:10.420 Reporters, right, yeah

01:05:12.540 Political partisans

01:05:14.880 I'm happy to say that

01:05:17.340 Because they certainly are

01:05:19.180 Channel 4 is one of the worst

01:05:21.300 Much worse than the BBC

01:05:22.280 For being leftist

01:05:25.140 Overtly leftist

01:05:26.720 Attacking the centre right

01:05:29.400 Let alone the real right

01:05:30.300 At every opportunity

01:05:32.060 Disingenuously

01:05:34.780 Over and over again

01:05:35.780 Endlessly

01:05:36.200 That's what Channel 4 is

01:05:37.720 The belly of the beast

01:05:39.080 Channel 4

01:05:39.700 The worst of the worst

01:05:41.060 In terms of British TV news

01:05:44.880 we'll see we'll wait and see all right but that's a big part of the news cycle today

01:05:48.720 all right it's already gone now let's have a look at what happened on this day in history

01:05:53.200 i like doing that bit you guys seems like doing that bit every day

01:05:57.120 we wind down the show a little bit still often do another 20 minutes half hour 40 minutes don't we

01:06:02.480 but all right on this day in history down through the centuries nay the millennia

01:06:07.280 the fourth of september what happened of note let's have a look-see all right on this day in

01:06:11.920 in 476 A.D. Romulus Augustulus, the last Western Roman Emperor, abdicates after forces led

01:06:20.040 by Odoacer, Odoacer, I've heard it pronounced a number of different ways, invade Rome, the

01:06:25.680 traditional date of the end of the Western Roman Empire. Do you think, guys, ladies and

01:06:30.460 gents, do you think that on my show, behind the paywall on lotocetus.com, it's called

01:06:34.760 bow days epochs or just epochs epochs do you think

01:06:39.920 i've got long form content talking all about the end of the roman empire including a bit about

01:06:46.980 romulus augustus yeah so body of work that's been built up over five years more over 280 episodes

01:06:55.400 all long form the shortest ones will be like 45 50 minutes they're nearly all nearly all over an

01:07:01.000 hour a lot of them are more like an hour and a half some of them are significantly longer than

01:07:05.600 that so without exaggeration hundreds multiple hundreds of hours worth of just history themed

01:07:12.480 content brought to you by yours truly your friendly neighborhood history bro you get access to all of

01:07:19.240 it for as long as five pound a month on team membership on lotusseasons.com again that's

01:07:24.500 lotusseasons.com do you like this so i get it all out like do give the thumbs up on this stream

01:07:30.120 Consider subbing to the website

01:07:32.020 Subbing to the channel

01:07:33.460 And get the bell on

01:07:35.520 Alright, I've talked all about Romulus Augustus before

01:07:38.220 I put the ending of the Roman Empire before that

01:07:41.040 But you've kind of got to

01:07:42.740 We don't have to

01:07:43.300 Most historians say Romulus Augustus

01:07:46.380 Romulus Augustus was just a child as well

01:07:48.320 It was just a little kid

01:07:50.220 It was already a puppet

01:07:51.260 So it was simplicity itself to remove him

01:07:54.560 Rome, the Western Roman Empire

01:07:56.800 By the late 5th century

01:07:59.080 Is

01:08:00.240 Massively, massively destroyed and weakened

01:08:03.540 It's barely existed

01:08:04.620 You know, like

01:08:05.820 Alaric the Goth

01:08:09.300 Had sacked Rome

01:08:11.160 Thoroughly, pretty thoroughly

01:08:13.120 Generations before that

01:08:15.500 60, 70 years before that

01:08:17.540 So if you really want to say

01:08:20.900 If you really want to say the last true Roman Emperor in the West

01:08:23.540 Most historians say

01:08:25.540 It's Romulus Augustulus

01:08:26.500 But I'd say

01:08:28.580 The Western Roman Empire was just a shadow

01:08:31.580 Just a shell

01:08:32.320 Just a sham of a sham of a thing

01:08:34.400 By that point already

01:08:35.400 That's my take, that's my opinion

01:08:38.060 But

01:08:39.600 Okay

01:08:41.700 Romanus Augustulus

01:08:43.240 The last child emperor

01:08:45.040 Alright, on this day in 1609

01:08:48.000 Navigator Henry Hudson

01:08:49.260 Of the Hudson Company fame

01:08:52.040 Hudson Bay

01:08:52.640 Nothing to do with the film Hudson Hawk

01:08:55.700 Henry Hudson in the early 17th century

01:08:58.280 is the first European to discover the island of Manhattan.

01:09:02.660 Or some think the date might be on September the 11th, not September the 4th.

01:09:08.360 Interesting, isn't it?

01:09:11.780 Again, would you think that's quite late

01:09:14.860 if Chris Columbus sailed the ocean blue in 1492?

01:09:21.000 So it was shown that Europeans can cross the Atlantic.

01:09:24.880 You don't fall off the edge of the earth.

01:09:26.360 You certainly don't bump into Japan

01:09:28.580 Or the South

01:09:30.480 Or

01:09:31.940 Southeast Asia

01:09:33.480 You don't bump into the Spice Islands in Indonesia

01:09:35.940 We've known that since 1492

01:09:38.660 And as soon as Christopher Columbus did it

01:09:40.700 There was quite a lot of shipping

01:09:43.400 Going back and forth straight away

01:09:44.340 Christopher Columbus crossed the Atlantic

01:09:46.020 I think four times in his own lifetime

01:09:47.820 So with all that being said

01:09:50.160 Don't you think I find it

01:09:51.320 It's quite late, 1609

01:09:53.560 Before anyone discovered

01:09:55.380 Hudson Bay, the Hudson River

01:09:59.420 the Manhattan Island, all around there

01:10:01.580 like well over 100 years later

01:10:05.140 I don't know, maybe it's not

01:10:06.560 I always find it odd to note the dates of when things did or didn't happen

01:10:10.600 it was as late as that was it

01:10:12.360 or it was as early as that was it

01:10:15.140 alright there you go, Henry Hudson and Manhattan

01:10:18.140 1609 only

01:10:19.940 nobody could have guessed would they

01:10:22.980 that a giant giant metropolis

01:10:25.000 It would grow up there

01:10:26.400 Alright, on this day in 1781

01:10:30.900 Los Angeles is founded

01:10:32.640 The City of Angels

01:10:33.660 By 44 Spanish-speaking mestizos

01:10:37.800 In the Baja de la Fumas

01:10:39.960 Which is the Bay of Smokes

01:10:41.880 Los Angeles

01:10:44.780 1781

01:10:47.940 Is that earlier than you might think?

01:10:51.260 It was the Spanish though

01:10:52.220 It wasn't US

01:10:54.240 Settlers

01:10:55.560 Wasn't English

01:10:57.080 Or French

01:10:58.840 Settlers

01:11:00.020 Headed out California way

01:11:01.640 It was Spaniards

01:11:04.200 They would have been sailing up the west coast

01:11:06.100 There you go

01:11:08.900 Interesting

01:11:11.000 On this day in 1862

01:11:13.000 General Lee, Robert E. Lee

01:11:15.120 Granny Lee, known to his men

01:11:17.020 And that was a term of endearment

01:11:18.180 Just because he had very grey white hair

01:11:20.900 And he looked after his men

01:11:22.940 The way a granny would

01:11:24.240 He loved his own men

01:11:25.480 A reputation for not getting them slaughtered needlessly

01:11:29.060 Like a kindly old granny

01:11:30.660 And he had white hair

01:11:31.780 Granny Lee, they loved him, didn't they?

01:11:34.480 The Confederacy

01:11:35.120 They loved him

01:11:36.260 General Robert E. Lee begins the Maryland campaign

01:11:39.360 Invading the North again

01:11:40.620 With 50,000 Confederate troops

01:11:43.420 In the US Civil War

01:11:44.680 I mean, 1862, big year

01:11:47.980 I mean, I'm fascinated by the US Civil War

01:11:50.000 My first ever video ever, ever on YouTube

01:12:20.840 So fascinated by the US Civil War

01:12:24.200 Know a great deal about it

01:12:25.780 Really, really interesting to me

01:12:27.240 Yeah, that year, 1862

01:12:30.500 The Confederacy still taking the war to the north

01:12:33.860 Invading Maryland

01:12:35.560 Lots still going on in the Shenandoah

01:12:38.320 The Shenandoah Valley

01:12:39.720 Lots still going on way out west

01:12:41.500 The Civil War took place in a thousand different places

01:12:45.480 It wasn't just in that little bit of stretch of land

01:12:48.120 Between Washington, D.C. and Richmond

01:12:50.000 It was all over the United States

01:12:52.040 All over

01:12:52.600 Not happening that year

01:12:58.560 62, back of Shiloh

01:13:00.300 I mean that's in Tennessee

01:13:02.820 It's not in Maryland

01:13:03.840 Anyway, could go on

01:13:07.300 Could just talk endlessly about it

01:13:10.020 I'll have to move on

01:13:11.380 I'm already running a little late today

01:13:13.120 Quarter past nine

01:13:13.800 Alright, what else have we got here?

01:13:16.120 On this day, 1957

01:13:17.100 The governor of Arkansas

01:13:18.720 Orville Fulbus

01:13:20.680 Fulbus

01:13:21.960 Calls out the National Guard

01:13:24.020 To prevent nine black students

01:13:25.560 From entering Little Rock Central High School

01:13:28.000 Wait, what's the law at that point, wasn't it?

01:13:33.140 That was the law

01:13:34.100 LBJ hadn't changed the law yet, had he?

01:13:38.500 Well, he hadn't, he hadn't

01:13:39.480 So it was just the law

01:13:41.980 Not saying it's a just law

01:15:03.580 gives us two factoids on top of our on this day in history he gives us two other factoids of his

01:15:07.740 own usually church history based ecclesiastical history but not always it says today in 925 ad

01:15:16.620 ethelstan was crowned as king if you used a very esoteric spelling there of athelstan

01:15:22.460 i like it by the way i like it athelstan was crowned uh at kingston upon thames which was much

01:15:29.260 more important back then kingston-upon-thames was important winchester was important sandwich was

01:15:35.420 important the town of sandwich if anyone's foreign didn't know yeah there's a place in

01:15:40.060 england called sandwich yeah anyway kingston-upon-thames right i'm more important than london

01:15:44.620 or anything um athelstan right yeah some say the first king of england many say i don't know about

01:15:50.540 that myself a bit like where you can if you want to you can date the end of the western roman

01:15:54.860 empire to a number of different points in history you can make the argument half decent argument

01:15:58.380 about that same for who's the first king of england many say it's athelstan i'm not sure i do

01:16:07.740 it's not a terrible argument it's a good it's a fair argument but i'm not sure if i do

01:16:11.340 athelstan the grandson of alfred the great of course

01:16:15.100 athelstan's father was edward the elder and his father was alfred the great

01:16:21.420 he's got a good shout athelstan to be the first king of england you could say you think i got

01:16:25.660 long-form content all about alfred the great edward the elder athelstan all of that all of that on

01:16:30.060 epochs behind the paywall oh yeah oh yeah yeah got loads of content about the anglo-saxon period

01:16:37.580 like quoting from the anglo-saxon chronicle and everything the full nine yards proper

01:16:41.340 good stuff not just me rambling on well pretty well reset stuff okay um

01:16:49.580 Athelstan

01:16:51.720 Check him out

01:16:53.180 His resting place is in

01:16:56.140 Malmesbury Cathedral

01:16:57.580 Not very far from where I sit

01:16:58.960 Nate, my co-host

01:17:01.180 And good friend

01:17:02.320 On State of Politics

01:17:03.640 Went there recently

01:17:05.480 Checked it out

01:17:06.900 We'll probably talk about it

01:17:08.580 On State of Politics at some point

01:17:10.540 Athelstan

01:17:13.240 Alright, and the other

01:17:14.560 The other factoid we've got here

01:17:17.020 From Global Church History says

01:17:18.020 In 1479 AD

01:17:20.100 The Treaty of Alca-Sobas Toledo

01:17:26.060 I think it's usually just called Alca-Sobas

01:17:29.800 I'm probably pronouncing that incorrectly as well

01:17:31.160 Makes Castile give up its claim on Portugal

01:17:34.300 And Portugal give up Aragon

01:17:36.200 Yeah, that's like part of the Isabella times, isn't it?

01:17:43.260 Where there was like a war of the Portuguese succession

01:17:46.480 And

01:17:47.560 Because Portugal and Spain

01:17:49.600 Portugal and Castile

01:17:50.800 Are just endless

01:17:52.840 Perennial enemies

01:17:54.500 Endless wars with each other

01:17:56.240 Rivals

01:17:57.060 But that helped sort it out a bit

01:18:01.240 Where Isabella was confirmed as like

01:18:04.780 The legit ruler of Castile

01:18:06.920 Yeah

01:18:09.820 I mean Spain and Portugal

01:18:11.260 Didn't stop fighting each other

01:18:14.280 Until into the 19th century

01:18:16.440 still got a lot of animosity towards each other right now i am given to understand

01:18:20.600 all right interesting thank you global church history all right the next couple here are from

01:18:27.860 global jewish history he says he says on this day in 1957 the wolfenden report is published

01:18:37.900 recommending that homosexual acts cease to be criminal offenses this paved the way for the

01:18:45.000 legalisation of homosexual acts in 1967 and you go on to the next one so i'll just read that out

01:18:51.020 and eventually gay marriage in 2013 david cameron very proud of that isn't he

01:18:56.640 unprovoked apropos of nothing he will bring up that he did that he was responsible for that

01:19:01.840 very proud of that gay marriage in 2013 with the first marriages taking place in 2014

01:19:08.760 thanks john frederick wolfenden for being one of the early realisers that love is for everybody

01:19:14.640 exclamation mark i trust you're being sarcastic

01:19:18.460 global juicish i'm choosing to take that as sarcasm

01:19:23.280 i don't i don't know if you're it's very

01:19:27.300 like the thing you said the other day about the six-day war like are you being sarcastic are you

01:19:38.240 what's going on there do you really think that is brilliant and well done john wolfenden

01:19:46.040 for getting homosexuality legalized and like gay marriages and the feminization and homosexualization

01:19:53.180 in society in a more broader way do you really think that's good

01:19:56.700 or are you being sarcastic it's not actually that obvious to me maybe it's obvious to everyone else

01:20:05.020 out there but all right well thanks for the 10 bucks either way all right and the last one right

01:20:13.160 only only four rumble rents today okay the last one right is from from from for tea and barber

01:20:18.060 she's bloody super fan of the show says rocking a hard place bow and then brackets morning all

01:20:24.060 right yeah i'm all right you're all right buddy i hope so rocking a hard place bow we could use

01:20:29.140 an election but the outcome currently doesn't look uh very much different to how it is now

01:20:34.400 Reform imploding, restore not fully ready

01:20:37.240 Oh dear

01:20:37.820 If there was

01:20:40.660 If Andy Bumham

01:20:42.060 King Andy, the first of his name

01:20:44.960 King of the North

01:20:45.940 If Andy Bumham

01:20:49.140 And his man Scara

01:20:50.560 And his moobs

01:20:51.940 Did call a general election

01:20:54.960 Right now

01:20:55.600 It would be a bit of an S show wouldn't it

01:20:59.040 It would be a bit of a hot dumpster fire wouldn't it

01:21:01.540 Labour

01:21:02.820 Probably

01:21:03.560 Probably

01:21:04.000 Get

01:21:04.400 The most number of seats

01:21:05.760 But

01:21:06.040 It would be a hung parliament

01:21:06.860 Wouldn't it

01:21:07.300 It would be a hung parliament

01:21:09.000 Restore's not ready

01:21:10.180 Polling

01:21:12.040 It's funny you see the polling

01:21:12.960 In non-restore actually

01:21:13.700 Sometimes it's

01:21:14.600 You see it as low as

01:21:15.840 Four

01:21:16.860 Three

01:21:17.580 Four percent

01:21:18.300 Then whenever there's ever

01:21:19.860 An election

01:21:20.440 They always get

01:21:21.280 Seven, eight, nine

01:21:21.880 Even ten percent

01:21:22.540 As much as high as ten percent

01:21:23.680 So anyway

01:21:25.300 Either way

01:21:25.980 Whatever way you cut it

01:21:26.920 They're not ready yet

01:21:28.360 Need more time

01:21:29.300 Need more time

01:21:30.620 So that's what

01:21:32.000 restore would like more time reform they're in the they're not in the ascendancy anymore

01:21:38.860 does it doesn't seem to be they're on the downward tick if if only slightly

01:21:43.960 labor and conservative rebounding on some of if there was a general election right now it'd be a

01:21:50.640 hung parliament and it'd be a wouldn't be great with it you're quite right oh dear yeah oh dear

01:21:56.920 well personally because i'm not really an accelerationist small part of me is i do get

01:22:04.640 it i totally understand the accelerationist argument but i'm not really an accelerationist

01:22:08.660 certainly not a doomer i don't want my country to be damaged any of my people to be damaged any

01:22:12.400 more than they need be of course that's my opinion this has to get way worse before it

01:22:18.480 gets better does it doesn't have to could just turn the ship around as quickly as possible could

01:22:23.200 just do that. Everything has to implode before it will get better. Why are you saying that?

01:22:28.060 It doesn't have to. It doesn't have to. Gavin Bovey, who I really, really like and respect,

01:22:32.800 says that. Lots of people say that. I can't really entirely agree. I mean, I get it. I

01:22:37.360 get the argument, and to some extent I agree, but not by and large. All right, anyway, if

01:22:45.620 one was to be called now a hung parliament, that's not the worst thing in the world, that

01:22:51.500 a cabal of globalist elites can't damage us all that much more because they can't get any new

01:22:58.800 legislation through parliament which hurts us even more that's not the worst thing to me

01:23:03.680 obviously it's not as good as a government that will start reversing things of course of course

01:23:08.840 of course all right let's have a look at the youtube ones what we've got about a dozen or

01:23:16.780 20 or so here let's get through them thundercook 2028 says starting like quote starting a war with

01:23:23.840 russia who invaded who what are you talking about at what point what are you talking about

01:23:32.260 we starting a war with russia because they invaded the donbass after years worth of

01:23:41.800 Provocation

01:23:43.120 Don't you talking about

01:23:44.440 Yeah Mr Putin

01:23:47.580 Invaded Ukraine yeah

01:23:49.360 Well just out of nowhere was it

01:23:51.500 Well history started in 2022 did it

01:23:54.000 It was nowhere

01:23:55.040 Putin one day woke up and was like I know what I'm going to do today

01:23:58.200 I fancy invading the Donbass for no reason

01:24:00.580 I have pure blind aggression

01:24:02.020 Is that what happened

01:24:03.020 Is it

01:24:04.560 It's not is it

01:24:05.980 What about the years of events

01:24:09.460 That led up to that

01:24:10.240 What about that

01:24:11.000 And even if he did wake up one morning

01:24:14.360 And say I'm taking the Donbass

01:24:15.480 They're Russian speaking

01:24:16.580 Culturally Russian

01:24:17.720 They want to be part of Russia

01:24:18.640 I'm just going to invade it

01:24:19.380 Even if that was the case

01:24:20.200 What's that got to do with Britain?

01:24:23.120 Hmm?

01:24:24.160 Nothing

01:24:24.560 Okay

01:24:26.760 CGMam8923 says

01:24:30.360 Says Stanlow processes 20%

01:24:34.020 Oh you're the person who talks about India every day

01:24:36.520 Rightly

01:24:36.960 Nearly every day

01:24:38.580 Stanlow processes 20%

01:24:40.780 Of UK fuel needs

01:24:42.500 Even a minor pause

01:24:44.040 Could cause a national crisis

01:24:45.660 Natrium

01:24:48.160 Makes vital dialysis chemicals

01:24:51.060 Both Indian owned

01:24:52.620 Worrying isn't it

01:24:54.720 Worrying

01:24:56.440 You're quite right to

01:24:59.580 You're quite right to

01:25:00.880 Okay and the next one is also from you

01:25:03.880 CG man says

01:25:04.820 Frustrating seeing Pitt Tomlinson

01:25:07.580 Harrison Pitt and Connor Tomlinson

01:25:09.120 push an india red list so casually 50 of our medical supplies is from india we have no

01:25:18.420 alternative source well i mean well what do you want though i mean the other one

01:25:23.780 we would have to make an alternative source i know that sort of thing doesn't happen overnight

01:25:31.240 you don't snap your fingers and suddenly you've got a world-class biochemical industry i get that

01:25:36.620 But you complain about

01:25:39.120 It's not really a popular year

01:25:40.640 Well it's not a popular year at all

01:25:41.440 But people complain about India's influence on us

01:25:46.500 The dangerous degree of influence

01:25:48.660 And then when people talk about it

01:25:51.400 People like Harrison Peter O'Connor

01:25:52.300 Talk about it

01:25:53.340 You're then

01:25:54.800 You're saying that's frustrating

01:26:08.340 And then they do

01:26:09.060 And then you're frustrated by that

01:26:10.440 We could buy

01:26:14.100 I guess we could buy the chemicals

01:26:15.260 From another country

01:26:16.580 While we get

01:26:17.300 Our own industry up and running

01:26:18.760 I don't know

01:29:53.620 cfc's tried to make it about global warming oh it's not global warming now it's just all sorts

01:30:00.120 of extreme weather events now both when it's hot and when it's cold and when it's windy and wet

01:30:04.960 all of it all weather yeah when did that happen when did it turn into every single

01:30:14.160 bit of weather, which isn't just a perfectly calm, clement day, room temperature day, anything

01:30:19.180 that's not that is a crisis and a worry and a concern. Mental. Anyone that buys that narrative

01:30:29.860 is not thinking straight. You're not thinking straight. You've had your thinking, your reasoning

01:30:36.040 warped by evil people that mean to control us. There it is. Andrew Romineen. Doesn't say anything

01:32:34.420 Can't always say that, can you?

01:32:36.860 In life

01:32:37.340 Certain points

01:32:39.560 It's not going to be a barrel of laughs

01:32:41.780 But I'm alright at the moment, thanks buddy

01:32:43.320 Appreciate it

01:32:44.040 I hope you're all good

01:32:44.760 I hope you're all good, I really do

01:32:46.520 the next one's from you as well for more money he said i have a theory that military conscription

01:32:53.400 will be the backhanded way of getting certain folks to self-deport en masse that might work

01:33:00.180 might that might be a good idea that that could be the case even if unintended thoughts yeah

01:33:06.600 interesting i've done what that's funnily it's never really cost my mind you know when someone

01:33:11.660 says something to you and as soon as they say as soon as they verbalize it in your head you're like

01:33:16.060 Yeah, of course

01:33:16.780 Have I never thought of that before?

01:33:18.280 Of course, yes

01:33:18.860 I just had a bit of that there

01:33:21.180 Maybe conscription would make lots of

01:33:23.440 Or national service

01:33:24.700 Would make loads of foreign people

01:33:26.580 The millions of foreign people that are here

01:33:28.620 Have got no right to be here

01:33:29.940 No natural right to be here

01:33:31.320 Between 10 and 20 million people

01:33:34.160 That have come here since 1997

01:33:35.940 Maybe a lot of those

01:33:37.420 Will self-deport

01:33:39.480 If we brought in national service or conscription

01:33:42.440 Maybe, maybe

01:33:44.580 not a bad idea not a bad thought interesting interesting something could be explored further

01:33:50.840 perhaps all right still got four or five more hell badger 84 that's their name hell badger

01:33:59.600 remember bodger and badger anyone remember bodger and badger

01:34:03.720 hell badger says

01:34:07.560 andy boredom

01:34:09.720 is the dried up jar of maxwell house in the job center staff room

01:34:16.940 ah that's a brilliant imagery what a brilliant metaphor he's the dried up jar of maxwell house

01:34:26.200 instant coffee in the job center staff room

01:34:29.400 then you put he's the two hour ladder safety training powerpoint presentation brilliant

01:34:38.460 again hellbadger84 what a banger that's great the two hour safety ladder training powerpoint

01:34:49.120 presentation is funny that's good but the dried up jar of maxwell house in the job center staff

01:34:54.540 room. That's a great image. That's a great image. You must have done some writing in

01:35:02.260 your time. Most people just don't come up with a metaphor like that. They don't. I don't

01:35:07.020 think like that. That's very good. I like it. I like it. Kudos. Okay. Very good. Uber

01:35:16.300 based Boomer. That's their name. Uber based Boomer says, I've been prepping in my tiny

01:35:22.100 old person's flat since 2021 when it was bleeding obvious to me that this kind of s would hit sooner

01:35:30.760 or later oh well good for you yeah absolutely good for you no sarcasm there really mean it

01:35:36.220 good for you problem is isn't it i've thought about prepping loads of course i have and i live

01:35:41.740 in a flat as well it's one thing you could fill your flat with like foods that are going to last

01:35:46.760 a long time pickled foods dried foods beef jerky you can fill your flat with food right and all

01:35:53.460 that and other things you might need okay water what are you going to do about water let's get

01:36:01.100 if that runs out if that you just can't turn on the tap you certainly can't go to a shop and buy

01:36:04.880 it it's all been looted long ago what are you going to do i should talk about this one day

01:36:11.640 in detail i mean get water purification tablets you go down to your local river

01:36:17.020 maybe get massive barrels of water but it'll go stale eventually like the same on a ship

01:36:25.380 on 17th century ship or whatever eventually the water goes stale you can stir it a bit and there's

01:36:30.080 various things you can put in it to keep it a bit more a bit more pure for a bit longer but

01:36:36.960 eventually it goes off and you can fill your bathtub up with fresh water just have again

01:36:43.020 stockpile lots and lots of water but it'll run out quite quickly or run out quite quickly

01:36:46.540 relatively on it water's the bigger concern for me there's true systems collapse can't just turn

01:36:54.060 on a tap and all the bottled waters have been looted long ago you can't you haven't got any

01:37:00.180 Sterilisation tablets

01:37:01.160 Going down to a local stream

01:37:03.260 Maybe that is the best way

01:37:06.580 Stock up

01:37:07.180 Fill up a whole bedroom full

01:37:09.420 Of water sterilisation tablets

01:37:11.980 Floor to ceiling

01:37:15.560 Hundreds of thousands of those tablets

01:37:18.420 That do that

01:37:19.060 It would be different if you lived on land

01:37:22.920 You had a big farm with big barns

01:37:24.460 And warehouses that you could defend

01:37:25.700 With a rifle or a shotgun

01:37:26.760 You'd fill up loads and loads of barrels and things

01:37:29.420 of water i don't know i don't know all right water's gonna be the problem isn't it it'll be

01:37:37.300 the problem you die of dehydration long before you die of hunger don't you you've only got a few

01:37:43.900 days two three four days five days right go that water three or four days you're dead that's it

01:37:50.520 brown bread okay cgmams again says i guess you're responding to the thing i said earlier so

01:37:59.000 you say you say no they need to concentrate on dependencies first i need to hear industrial

01:38:06.080 strategy along with other policies about immigration oh fair point then okay yeah

01:38:10.140 well fair point no no you're right you're right yeah fair point i'll say that to him i'll say

01:38:17.620 that to him i really will genuinely both harrison pitt and con thompson i can just dm on twitter

01:38:25.200 I will

01:38:26.380 I will do that

01:38:27.440 You're not wrong

01:38:29.000 Okay

01:38:32.600 Tatum2733 says

01:38:34.540 When I rule the world

01:38:36.800 You'll still do a morning show

01:38:39.000 You're doing it

01:38:40.440 You're going to do it forever

01:38:41.460 You'll still be doing a morning show

01:38:43.520 And I'll watch you from my palace

01:38:45.140 With a button that shocks you

01:38:46.800 That you can't tell about

01:38:52.780 Or else

01:38:54.580 Okay

01:38:55.980 Tatum was also insisting the other day

01:38:58.540 That I wear a wig

01:38:59.560 In his world when he rules the world

01:39:01.280 I will have hair

01:39:01.860 He didn't say a wig actually

01:39:03.300 He didn't necessarily say a wig

01:39:04.360 But I will have hair

01:39:06.140 When he rules the world

01:39:07.580 Guess it'll be a wig

01:39:10.440 And I'll still do the morning show

01:39:12.980 And he can electro shock me

01:39:15.120 And I can't say anything about it

01:39:16.500 I get that you're a fan

01:39:20.360 And you like the show

01:39:21.640 You want me to keep doing the show

01:39:22.680 But that's a little bit worrying, sir

01:39:25.940 No, I like it

01:39:29.860 I'd like to do the show

01:39:30.660 I'd like to do the show

01:39:31.560 Indefinitely

01:39:32.640 Eventually I'll get old and tired

01:39:35.880 I don't know

01:39:36.400 Cheers for the super chat, Tatum

01:39:39.400 Appreciate it

01:39:40.140 Okay, last couple here

01:39:41.640 Sam H. 1989 says

01:39:43.740 Can you, we, start calling Tommy Robinson

01:39:50.000 Tommy Rubenstein

01:39:52.440 We all know why

01:39:53.720 Anyone doesn't know why

01:39:58.780 What are they talking about?

01:39:59.760 Well Tommy is very very pro-Israel isn't he?

01:40:01.900 I mean he just is

01:40:02.940 Very very pro-Israel

01:40:05.700 That's why some people call him that don't they

01:40:07.840 Where's real name Stephen Yaxley-Lennon isn't it?

01:40:12.960 Why don't people call him Steve?

01:40:14.780 Steve-o

01:40:15.220 Little Stevie

01:40:16.940 Steve

01:40:21.660 i can only imagine that tommy robertson when he was growing up all through school primary school

01:40:25.660 secondary school people called him steve didn't they didn't they i don't know teachers called

01:40:30.860 him steven and not everyone else calls him steve i i really don't know all right who cares

01:40:40.220 wants to call yourself tommy now it's fine by me i don't care

01:40:44.220 all right uber based boomer again says

01:40:49.500 a berkeley gravity purifier doesn't need electric

01:40:54.660 oh you're talking about purifying water oh okay there are other ways around it it's a bit old

01:41:01.000 school isn't it tablets yeah well you're right yeah that is that perhaps that is a bit old hat

01:41:05.920 a bit out of date now you can get a thing that just purifies water just through gravity and it

01:41:11.400 It doesn't need electrics.

01:41:13.240 That could be the difference between life and death, couldn't it?

01:41:15.320 Owning one of those, couldn't it?

01:41:21.440 I might even consider buying one.

01:41:24.160 Now you've said it.

01:41:25.140 You've planted that seed in my head now.

01:41:28.940 A Berkeley gravity purifier.

01:41:31.620 Okay, noted.

01:41:33.960 That could be the difference between life and death.

01:41:37.420 Or extending your life a bit until that breaks, for whatever reason.

01:41:41.400 does it need filters

01:41:43.220 you need a stockpile of filters

01:41:45.080 you need a bedroom full of those filters

01:41:47.440 oh, okay

01:41:50.900 and the last one here

01:41:52.500 is from Tatum again

01:41:54.380 it just says

01:41:55.340 I guess that's me being electrocuted

01:41:59.220 and you have to play it cool

01:42:01.460 or else

01:42:01.960 just play it off

01:42:03.740 or else, or what, like execution

01:42:07.400 but then you wouldn't have the bow show

01:42:11.400 okay that's the show that's the show today it's now 42 minutes past nine in the a.m british
