00:04:39.520 no danger

00:04:42.000 unless you're imprudent and you jump straight into a very cold reservoir or lake or river

00:04:49.800 And you can't help it

00:04:53.000 The involuntary breathe in

00:04:54.480 And your lungs fill with water

00:04:55.600 That happens to people doesn't it

00:04:56.800 That's a terrible thing

00:04:57.600 That's a tragedy

00:04:58.180 That's a danger isn't it

00:04:59.560 But in and of itself

00:05:00.440 Not a danger

00:05:01.740 Shattered families in safety plea

00:05:05.880 After drowning tragedy

00:05:07.040 As well that's what I was talking about

00:05:08.040 Just be aware of that

00:05:09.140 That's all you

00:05:09.640 There's loads of things in life like that

00:05:12.420 Isn't it

00:05:12.800 Don't walk out into the road without looking

00:05:14.760 Right

00:05:15.320 Don't jam a knife down a toaster that's on

00:05:19.040 you know you've got a saucepan with loads and loads of really hot oil in it don't just run it

00:05:25.560 directly under a cold tap loads of things like that yeah don't jump in a really really cold

00:05:31.780 lake river or reservoir unless you're ready for it unless you're prepared

00:05:34.960 yeah it's not really a danger for like an existential danger for everyone for the whole

00:05:43.220 world temperature's set to soar again there's new health alert issues it's not that bad it's such 1.00

00:05:48.740 Stupid scaremongering 1.00

00:05:50.560 Ridiculous scaremongering 1.00

00:05:52.380 It's going to be a bit warm again 0.93

00:05:54.520 It's going to be in like the mid-30s

00:05:56.720 That bad

00:06:00.140 Don't buy their nonsense 0.92

00:06:03.220 I really don't

00:06:03.680 Alright, the eye of paper, what have we got here?

00:06:07.080 Oh, well, there's a shortage of water in Britain

00:06:08.980 Even though we're sort of a

00:06:10.280 Quite heavily waterlogged country

00:06:12.700 Most of the year

00:06:13.740 Car washes and swimming pools

00:06:15.900 Could face water bans in UK's next heatwave

00:06:18.460 Are you mismanaging the water?

00:06:22.460 Is that what's going on?

00:06:23.760 It's not just that it's a bit hot, a bit

00:06:26.220 Are you mismanaging the water?

00:06:30.600 16 million people could see their areas move into drought status this week

00:06:35.420 As Britain faces new 35 degrees centigrade heatwave

00:06:38.940 Or is that Celsius?

00:06:41.660 I always get them mixed up

00:06:42.960 That's one of those things

00:06:44.000 I always get them mixed up

00:06:46.560 Alright, anyway

00:06:46.940 With further hosepipe bans likely to be announced

00:06:50.880 Water firms are preparing non-essential restrictions

00:06:56.140 For businesses such as private membership, swimming pools and gyms

00:07:00.640 First time the measure has been authorised in two decades

00:07:04.460 Someone in the chat says centigrade, okay I'll go with that

00:07:16.940 I don't know why I've always failed to

00:07:20.720 Memorise that

00:07:23.880 I know the degree C and the Fahrenheit difference

00:07:27.700 But anyway

00:07:29.120 I still have to struggle to spell phenomenon

00:07:34.140 I have to think about it quite carefully

00:07:37.380 Phenomenon

00:07:38.980 I think a lot of people suffer from that sort of thing

00:07:41.640 Prolonged dry spell causes a fall in reservoir shortage

00:07:46.500 and river levels amid warnings of lower crop yields and environmental problems such as mass

00:07:52.520 mass fish kills and toxic algae blooms yeah it's gonna it's a bit warm it's a bit warm calm down

00:08:01.100 oh i just don't buy their alarmism i just don't buy it

00:08:05.340 it's a bit warm the most the vast majority of the rest of the year it's cold and windy and rainy

00:08:12.740 On this island

00:08:14.720 We're a windswept island

00:08:16.960 In the North Atlantic

00:08:18.440 Making out like we're some sun

00:08:21.360 Parched, arid

00:08:23.020 Desert land

00:08:24.280 No, no

00:08:25.480 No

00:08:28.320 We suffer from floods if anything

00:08:31.420 Mainly, don't we

00:08:32.600 It's flooding we've got to worry about mostly

00:08:35.280 Isn't it?

00:08:36.220 Too much rain

00:08:37.120 We just mismanage the water in the summer months

00:08:40.400 That's all

00:08:41.580 The Express

00:08:45.700 The Daily Express

00:08:47.280 It's a good paper

00:08:48.060 You can read your Express now

00:08:51.780 Alright the Bayeus Tapestry is coming to the British Museum

00:08:54.840 I'm looking forward to that

00:08:55.720 Really I'm looking forward to that

00:08:57.540 As I said before

00:08:59.020 I'll talk about it

00:09:00.640 You're not allowed a camera in there

00:09:02.740 I can't actually walk around

00:09:03.880 Standing in front of it walking along it

00:09:05.980 While one of the editor dudes films me

00:09:09.060 Can't really do that but

00:09:11.580 I'll make content all about it

00:09:12.780 and do all about it.

00:09:13.940 Wait for the,

00:09:14.620 I'm going to wait for the,

00:09:15.920 the rush to die down

00:09:17.600 because it's here for quite a few months.

00:09:19.600 I think until the new year time,

00:09:21.220 roughly, I think,

00:09:21.760 something like that.

00:09:22.940 So I'll wait probably

00:09:23.720 a couple of months.

00:09:27.000 And then you can just turn up

00:09:27.800 at the British Museum

00:09:28.420 almost certainly,

00:09:29.340 especially early.

00:09:30.700 Get a ticket,

00:09:31.320 go in and see it.

00:09:33.180 Not be crowded out.

00:09:35.940 All right,

00:09:36.220 just the individual stories

00:09:37.620 of the injustice of people

00:09:39.860 The victims, the family of victims

00:09:43.340 In this early jail release policy

00:09:45.660 Here's just another one, throw it on the pile 1.00

00:09:47.600 Sister of student moaned down by drunkest driver

00:09:51.220 Demands he is not released early

00:09:53.700 That's a quote, drunkest

00:09:54.800 Not just drunkest, the drunkest

00:09:56.960 You must keep our Fenella's killer in jail 0.61

00:10:00.180 The girl that was killed was called Fenella

00:10:02.340 And it was a 72 year old

00:10:05.400 Malcolm Waite

00:10:08.320 72 year old mounted the pavement and hit her on the pavement uh it's one of those things isn't it

00:10:14.580 where you've you've really done nothing wrong as as the victim like sometimes not not to victim

00:10:20.440 shame but sometimes like well you we made a bad decision it's not your fault it's terrible you

00:10:24.500 died but you made a bad decision like you went out swimming and there was an undertow and you

00:10:28.000 can't really swim it's like yeah it's really bad you died but you did make a bad decision or whatever

00:10:31.980 You know

00:10:32.720 But you did nothing wrong

00:10:36.360 Like

00:10:36.700 You're just walking down the street

00:10:39.200 And someone mounts the curb

00:10:40.580 Mounts the pavement and hits you

00:10:41.800 It's like

00:10:42.200 You walked out in the road

00:10:45.100 And got hit by a bus

00:10:46.300 It's like

00:10:46.560 Well you're looking both ways properly

00:10:48.080 But that

00:10:50.120 When it mounts the curb

00:10:51.940 Like

00:10:52.600 It's like a bolt of a balloon

00:10:53.800 It's sort of like

00:10:54.400 Getting hit by lightning isn't it

00:10:55.520 Well in the sense that

00:10:56.680 You couldn't have avoided it

00:10:58.260 There's nothing you could have done

00:11:00.360 You were just in the wrong place

00:11:01.480 at the wrong time

00:11:02.160 apparently they're going to let him out early

00:11:06.780 now people are in more

00:11:11.680 of an outrage about him

00:11:13.540 so it really does cut to the

00:11:17.200 cut to the quick does it cut to the

00:11:19.040 right to the bone of

00:11:21.220 like our society

00:11:22.980 the nature of our society

00:11:25.380 how safe it is

00:11:27.480 because those of these people

00:11:29.440 perhaps not that 72 year old drunk driver

00:11:31.180 But a lot of these people will just re-offend very quickly

00:11:34.580 In fact, that's some of the headlines of some of the news we've got today

00:11:37.400 Is exactly that

00:11:38.120 Okay, the Daily Mail

00:11:39.840 Pure globalist slop

00:11:40.960 Trying to pretend it's not wearing the skin suit of a patriot 0.89

00:11:43.440 Sometimes

00:11:44.460 As Burnham pursues early release scheme

00:11:49.120 Analysis shows

00:11:51.200 Sex offenders, robbers and arsonists 0.75

00:11:53.340 Will cause mayhem 1.00

00:11:54.400 Yeah

00:11:56.360 Labour jail plan

00:11:59.200 To spark 89,000 more crimes

00:12:03.040 This is a bit of data

00:12:04.640 A bit of analysis

00:12:05.480 Done by the Conservative Party

00:12:08.180 So you can take it with a little pinch of salt

00:12:11.560 But it seems to be

00:12:12.500 So as I can see what I've read this morning

00:12:14.080 This morning

00:12:15.180 It's not sort of crazy

00:12:18.460 It's not sort of

00:12:20.780 Beyond reasonable

00:12:22.540 But this data was commissioned by the Conservative Party

00:12:27.400 So bear that in mind

00:12:28.000 It was done by proper

00:12:30.720 It was done by proper experts and things

00:12:33.280 It wasn't just like the Shadow Home Secretary

00:12:35.380 Just came up with the 89,000 out of mid-air

00:12:39.780 No, no, it was proper

00:12:40.620 And I said, anyway

00:12:41.600 Yeah, yeah

00:12:43.580 A lot of these people will re-offend

00:12:45.520 Of course they will

00:12:46.420 Quite quickly as well

00:12:47.580 In fact, we've already got data on that, haven't we?

00:12:49.880 A week ago, or was it a week before that?

00:12:52.540 There was some data showing that

00:12:53.580 A third of all the early releases so far

00:12:55.900 Have already re-offended

00:12:57.540 How this sort of policy wasn't the absolute last, last, last-ditch result

00:13:08.320 Of trying to deal with the issue of overcrowding in prisons

00:13:11.700 A number of things you could have done before this

00:13:15.060 In fact, there was a story

00:13:18.540 There was a story in one of the papers

00:13:23.960 Where it just said exactly what we've been saying

00:13:26.860 it's like deport foreign criminals first maybe where was it sorry if i can't find it

00:13:33.540 anyway sorry i can't find it but um i think it was on the mail on express somewhere it was

00:13:40.340 basically saying yeah how about this for a plan you deport like the 10 000 plus foreign criminals

00:13:46.540 we've got in our jails straight away you don't want to do that now you don't want to build a new

00:13:52.700 a new prison or even like whack up sort of a semi-temporary one like a prefab type deal

00:13:58.640 something like that use some sort of prison hulk hulk like the the bibi stockton or whatever

00:14:06.200 the skibbity bibi stockholm syndrome

00:14:09.380 something anything use old disused barracks barracks repurpose them at least for a while

00:14:16.400 something something other than just letting terrorists and murderers and rapists out into

00:14:21.940 The general population

00:14:23.300 That's Labour for you, that's Fabianism

00:14:28.420 That's Socialism for you

00:14:30.180 They don't care

00:14:32.160 About the quality of society

00:14:33.920 In a capitalist society

00:14:35.360 They don't care about it

00:14:37.700 They want to cause chaos 0.79

00:14:38.980 Chaos and division

00:14:40.700 What they want

00:14:42.020 Now throw someone up there in front of you

00:14:45.900 Someone like Andy Burnham who looks meek and mild

00:14:48.120 And reasonable and is like

00:14:49.660 I'm listening to you

00:14:50.580 We're listening

00:15:50.840 It's something that's rotting

00:15:53.980 Labour wants deeper ties to EU under Burnham

00:15:59.640 Says Minster

00:16:00.160 Of course they do

00:16:00.900 I read that article

00:16:03.960 Apparently what it says is that

00:16:05.520 Burnham's got no intention of

00:16:06.780 Working outside Keir Starmer's parameters

00:16:10.440 The Red Lions Keir Starmer set for himself

00:16:12.400 I.e. not rejoining the single market

00:16:14.620 and not opening up full movement of people,

00:16:17.320 the Schengen and all that stuff.

00:16:19.160 Well, our borders are open anyway, aren't they?

00:16:22.640 If you're an EU citizen and you'll find there's a bit of red tape,

00:16:25.400 it's not easy to get into Britain,

00:16:26.460 just go to Calais and get on a small boat, get on a dinghy.

00:16:29.780 You can do it that way, can't you?

00:16:30.920 In fact, you'll get free accommodation.

00:16:33.920 And a mobile phone and on and on and on.

00:16:39.220 But, not that I necessarily even believe that,

00:16:42.160 That they won't rejoin the single market

00:16:44.140 At some point you might just go

00:16:45.600 Ministers are briefing

00:16:47.640 Journalists

00:16:49.220 Sources close to the Prime Minister

00:16:52.280 Say that perhaps it is

00:16:54.360 On the table to rejoin

00:16:56.040 The single market

00:16:57.400 That will play out for a few weeks or a few months

00:16:59.260 And then they're seriously looking at it

00:17:01.160 I wouldn't put it out past them

00:17:02.500 But apparently at the moment

00:17:05.660 The line is

00:17:08.140 The party line, the government line is

00:17:09.540 That they're not going to do that

00:17:10.440 But short of that, short of that, they're looking at anything and everything.

00:17:17.100 They're saying, giving themselves all the wiggle room they want.

00:17:21.480 In fact, that was actually sort of, I paraphrased slightly,

00:17:23.600 but that was sort of one of the quotes coming out of Whitehall,

00:17:26.600 was that there's plenty of wiggle room.

00:17:28.820 Again, I am paraphrasing slightly.

00:17:31.800 They didn't say wiggle room, but it was exactly that.

00:17:34.200 We've got a lot of space to work in and around if we want to, they're saying.

00:17:38.020 Oh, have you?

00:17:39.200 All right.

00:17:40.440 I'm going to try and forget that we had that referendum

00:17:43.720 Just like the toys, just like Theresa May

00:17:48.040 Kicking and screaming the whole way

00:17:51.200 Anything rather than truly, truly sever tyres with Europe

00:17:57.440 They still want us to be controlled by Europe, don't they?

00:18:01.080 They still want our laws

00:18:03.700 To be subservient to European laws, don't they?

00:18:07.920 They would rather an unelected court in Strasbourg or wherever

00:18:12.100 Brussels

00:18:13.160 Supersede ours

00:18:16.320 They want that 0.95

00:18:18.180 What kind of weird out-group preference

00:18:20.440 What kind of like the opposite of patriotism

00:18:22.940 Anti-patriotism, anti-nativism

00:18:25.040 Is that

00:18:26.700 Sedition, treason, as I'm concerned

00:18:30.580 Why would you want to undermine your own country

00:18:34.040 So much

00:18:35.400 It's a weird freakish mindset isn't it

00:18:39.960 Leftism, globalism

00:18:41.400 It's freakish

00:18:45.180 You don't want the best for your country

00:18:47.000 And your children and grandchildren etc etc

00:18:49.380 You actively want a worse situation for them

00:18:55.320 Why would you?

00:18:58.840 Unless you hated yourself really

00:19:00.240 I mean it kind of boils down to that

00:19:01.480 You hated yourself 1.00

00:19:03.340 X accounts from abroad

00:19:05.680 Linked to UK unrest

00:19:06.720 This is a story that

00:19:07.700 During some

00:19:08.700 Do you remember the Belfast

00:19:10.520 And some Southampton unrest

00:19:12.860 In the last few months

00:19:13.980 Building to this article

00:19:17.020 In the Guardian

00:19:18.200 If you can believe it

00:19:19.200 Which I don't necessarily

00:19:21.380 Anyway

00:19:22.380 Apparently a lot of the accounts on X

00:19:24.360 That were like stoking that up

00:19:25.580 And egging it on

00:19:26.300 Like more than half of them

00:19:28.560 Were not even UK accounts

00:19:30.480 About 55%

00:19:33.340 so uh something like that about half or more slightly more they're not even from the uk

00:19:41.340 makes sense there's loads of accounts on eggs i suppose it's the same probably americans get it

00:19:47.260 worse everyone else in the world talking about your politics i mean we do it here don't we at

00:19:52.780 low seaters i do it here just chip in chime in on american politics all the time must be slightly

00:19:59.020 annoying to real americans um i am a real american

00:20:05.140 yep okay there's loads of accounts quite often it didn't actually say that in this article but

00:20:14.980 quite often there's loads of indian accounts that claim to be uk accounts chiming in talking about

00:20:20.700 British politics. Hmm. Hmm. Okay. Here's the thing about Banksy. I think our poll was about

00:20:28.920 Banksy, wasn't it? We'll get to that after the front pages. But do you remember this?

00:20:33.820 This was a while ago. Somehow, this sort of blows my mind a little bit. Somehow, in

00:20:39.660 the middle of the night, apparently without anyone noticing, certainly anyone from the

00:20:47.920 police no one ringing up the police or anything somehow banksy and you can't he wouldn't have

00:20:53.780 been able to do this on his own the banks it rather banks his team somehow moved a statue

00:21:00.120 on a plinth but it's essentially in the middle of london i can't remember where it was it's not

00:21:05.580 actually whitehall i don't think it's right in the middle right in the middle of london

00:21:09.640 a big plinth i don't know if it's actually stone surely you'd need like a cherry picker and a jcb

00:21:16.260 and like heavy heavy machinery but it looks like stone anyway this plinth and it's that's quite big

00:21:21.260 and then this big statue just moved it into the middle of london in the middle of night and in

00:21:25.580 the morning everyone's like oh where's this thing come from oh it's a new banksy installation

00:21:30.440 it's massive you know that's like 15 foot high or whatever 20 foot high i don't know something like

00:21:36.200 that meters meters higher and look look how look what a brilliant message look at the politics

00:21:43.520 behind it. Look, there's someone with a flag, so like a patriotic person, but look, the

00:21:48.180 flag is in his face, is blinding him, and he's about to walk off the plinth, he's about

00:21:55.000 to walk off the edge of a cliff, metaphorically. Look, if you've got a flag, if you've got

00:21:59.820 a country, the message is, isn't it? If you've got a country, if you love your country, like

00:22:03.240 your country, any sort of patriotism, anything like that, you're a stupid blind idiot who's 1.00

00:22:09.840 about to fall off a cliff. Thanks Banksy, you fat boomer-tard. We know who Banksy is, don't we? 1.00

00:22:23.360 Basically, not 100% confirmed. There was a story six months ago, a year ago, where it was just

00:22:30.320 basically, we know who he is. It's just some fat libtard from Bristol, that's all it is. 1.00

00:22:35.980 Like a lot of these things 1.00

00:22:38.680 Who are they, who are they

00:22:39.660 The mystery of it

00:22:40.500 And when you find out who they are

00:22:41.320 It's like oh it's just a guy

00:22:42.160 I see him, it's just a guy

00:22:45.020 Right, with his really really subversive

00:22:50.980 Lib card takes

00:22:52.020 Vandalism of vital tourist attraction

00:22:56.100 It's not vital

00:22:57.000 It's not vital

00:22:58.680 Even if you want to argue it's a tourist attraction

00:23:01.920 Because people want to go and see the latest Banksy

00:23:05.100 It's not vital

00:23:05.880 Certainly not vital

00:23:06.880 Or is it just for angelism

00:23:08.560 Does the rule of law not apply to Banksy

00:23:12.060 Just asking the question

00:23:14.800 Does the law apply to Banksy or not

00:23:17.520 Anyone else goes around London

00:23:20.480 Or anyone else doing criminal damage

00:23:22.920 Because there's others

00:23:24.760 It was in the news cycle yesterday

00:23:27.680 Hence on the front page today

00:23:29.760 There's a few other examples of what Banksy's done

00:23:33.040 There's one, it's usually stencil art, isn't it?

00:23:39.460 There's one on the side of the Courts of Justice in London

00:23:43.420 And it was a picture of a judge, a white judge 0.63

00:23:46.880 Holding his gavel, his little hammer 0.91

00:23:49.380 Above a black protestor who's on the ground 1.00

00:23:51.700 Like he's going to hammer him 1.00

00:23:52.640 Again, well done

00:23:55.080 Well done, Banksy

00:23:57.180 Brilliant commentary

00:24:00.100 yeah brilliant um and it's cost it costs loads of money to get rid of like this statue

00:24:09.720 apparently has cost the council i don't know if it's the westminster council 60 grand 60 000

00:24:17.300 pounds to get rid of it or to put it in storage or something or at least to put barriers around it

00:24:22.680 60 grand it's a bit brewster's millions how does it cost that much but okay

00:24:27.400 The one on the side of the

00:24:29.680 Courts of Justice

00:24:30.400 I think it might be the Courts of Justice

00:24:32.060 On the Strand

00:24:33.620 So I know that really well

00:24:35.220 I've walked past that

00:24:36.040 Literally hundreds of times

00:24:37.300 When I was doing my undergrad at uni

00:24:38.820 I was at the Strand campus

00:24:41.060 Of King's College London

00:24:42.400 Anyway

00:24:44.300 And it's right there

00:24:45.260 It's right by it

00:24:45.760 It's almost opposite it

00:24:46.840 Not quite

00:24:47.200 But it's about 100 yards down the road

00:24:48.560 So I've walked past that

00:24:50.080 Dozens and dozens

00:24:51.280 Probably hundreds of times

00:24:52.280 Anyway

00:24:52.800 Did that stence on the side

00:24:55.020 Quite big

00:24:55.620 Quite big

00:24:56.480 and then so they tried to clean it off right away that didn't really work it's like that

00:25:00.100 lovely portland stone rare kind of rare stone beautiful beautiful stone that didn't really

00:25:05.300 work so they tried to laser it off get a specialist in to laser it off apparently that didn't really

00:25:09.820 work properly or didn't work so they've had to build like a temporary little wooden shack thing

00:25:14.400 around it and they might have to replace the stone itself and it's cost them so far 85 grand that

00:25:22.520 one's cost them 85 grand so far so okay it's not just like a slight inconvenience it's actually

00:25:29.660 costing the taxpayer tens of thousands well into the hundreds of thousands of pounds so again i ask

00:25:35.940 is banksy above the law does the rule of law apply to everyone else but not banksy

00:25:46.360 at this point that's a perfectly legit question to ask isn't it

00:25:52.520 Okay, if you want your libtard art 0.82

00:25:55.240 Fine, well and good 1.00

00:25:56.980 In a museum

00:25:59.740 Or in an art gallery or something

00:26:01.360 Yeah, good, yeah

00:26:02.060 But when it's just criminal damage

00:26:05.040 Not only criminal damage

00:26:06.160 But criminal damage that costs us hundreds of thousands of pounds

00:26:08.740 In Bowes Britain, I would

00:26:16.640 Because they know who he is

00:26:18.400 People in the know know who he is

00:26:19.580 It's not a complete secret

00:26:20.700 It really, really, really isn't

00:26:22.520 Like, people can get in contact with his manager or his agent or whatever.

00:26:28.200 So, if you were the police, say, you could absolutely find out who he is and where he is.

00:26:35.720 A hundred percent.

00:26:37.260 Easily.

00:26:37.800 Within minutes. 1.00

00:26:40.760 In Boes Britain, I would prosecute him. 1.00

00:26:42.420 I would have him prosecuted. 0.79

00:26:44.260 I'd get my home secretary to get the CPS to look into him at the very least.

00:26:50.860 look into his crime see if we can prosecute him yeah for criminal damage quite simply quite simply

00:26:58.060 this is not above the law the law does apply to Banksy

00:27:02.680 or should do all right that's enough about Banksy Netanyahu breaks with Trump on Gaza plan

00:27:13.080 so do you remember a little while ago what a year ago maybe a little less Donald Trump decided he

00:27:19.320 going to make his board of peace. Remember that? I remember. Because the UN wasn't really

00:27:31.100 getting things done the way Trump wanted. If anything, the UN seems to be more like

00:27:36.660 a mechanism for thwarting US foreign policy quite often nowadays, isn't it? So anyway,

00:27:43.560 Trump wants to do stuff. He wants to do what he wants to do, doesn't he? In fact, even

00:27:47.720 Quite often using someone like Stephen Wyckoff

00:27:49.480 Or Jared Kushner

00:27:50.220 Instead of the actual State Department

00:27:52.500 To do international diplomacy

00:27:54.020 Because Trump wants to get stuff done his way

00:27:56.280 Don't blame him

00:27:57.240 Don't blame him necessarily

00:27:58.780 Alright, so he set up that board of peace, didn't he?

00:28:02.500 Sort of conduct international diplomacy and things

00:28:05.320 Strictly on his terms, effectively

00:28:07.360 Okay

00:28:08.700 Tony Blair was involved in it, remember?

00:28:11.160 I think there's about 50

00:28:12.060 There's a number of countries who would sign up to it

00:28:14.660 And a number said they wouldn't

00:28:16.340 Alright

00:28:16.600 And he had this plan for Gaza, didn't he, Trump?

00:28:21.220 Which would be, Hamas would completely disarm, 100% disarm

00:28:27.880 Israel would leave that territory, the IDF anyway, the Israeli Defence Force, the Israeli Army

00:28:33.900 Would leave the Gaza Strip

00:28:35.960 And then various countries would invest heavily in rebuilding Gaza 0.98

00:28:42.240 And they would turn it into like

00:28:44.040 Some sort of tourist destination

00:28:48.000 They would make it

00:28:48.940 Because actually 0.77

00:28:50.080 The beachfront on Gaza is nice, right?

00:28:54.100 That bit of the Mediterranean

00:28:55.580 If it were left to its own devices

00:28:57.660 Would be very picturesque

00:28:58.880 And a nice bit of coastline

00:29:00.940 Of course

00:29:01.800 Try and turn it into like

00:29:03.600 A beachfront property

00:29:04.820 Nice properties, hotels

00:29:06.560 You know, like

00:29:08.540 Maybe even

00:29:09.840 uh hotels restaurants you know you get it that sort of thing turn it into like the riviera

00:29:16.580 the palestinian riviera i'm the first one to say that over here you see anyone else saying that

00:29:22.860 i coined that i think i did anyway you know sometimes you think you come up with something

00:29:28.300 you really genuinely thought you came up with something and someone goes no someone else

00:29:32.480 said that ages ago and you're like oh i guess i locked that away in my mind

00:29:36.300 And then forgot that I knew it

00:29:39.020 And then parroted it out

00:29:40.260 And genuinely thought

00:29:41.400 I was the one that came up with it

00:29:42.280 Have you ever done that?

00:29:43.420 I've done that

00:29:44.160 Alright anyway 0.96

00:29:46.980 The Palestinian Riviera

00:29:48.360 Maybe even like casinos and things

00:29:51.180 Get really rich people

00:29:53.800 To go and live there

00:29:54.820 And turn it into a paradise

00:29:56.040 Well Hamas had said 0.96

00:29:59.060 They're up for that

00:29:59.860 Israel had said 1.00

00:30:01.740 They were up for that

00:30:02.660 And now they're saying they're not

00:30:04.700 And now Nettie

00:30:05.560 Old Bibi is saying he's not up for it 0.99

00:30:08.880 Trump and his board of peace came up with a 15 point plan

00:30:11.860 That both sides would agree to

00:30:13.780 And there were noises coming out of Israel

00:30:17.260 Saying they would agree to it

00:30:18.740 But right now Bibi is saying no

00:30:20.920 Or rather

00:30:23.440 He and the Israeli defence folks would only dream of pulling out of Gaza 0.91

00:30:29.260 Once Hamas' de-armament program

00:30:35.380 was complete i don't necessarily blame i don't actually blame them necessarily for that because

00:30:41.300 we've been through this a number of times before the mass have said they would disarm

00:30:50.660 it looked like they were disarming they gave the impression they were disarming and then they just

00:30:55.140 weren't they just simply weren't it was all lies a number of times we've been through this

00:31:00.420 So I don't necessarily blame Nettie for that

00:31:02.380 But alright, whatever

00:31:03.280 He says that he would only

00:31:06.200 They'll only dream of it once 1.00

00:31:08.000 Once Hamas is just 0.98

00:31:10.080 Completely, completely and fully shown 0.97

00:31:12.220 Beyond any question of a doubt 0.99

00:31:13.720 For reals 1.00

00:31:15.440 To have disarmed 1.00

00:31:16.900 So I mean

00:31:20.300 And that won't happen

00:31:21.340 Well, unlikely to happen

00:31:22.940 Very, very unlikely to happen

00:31:24.240 Because Hamas are a militant organisation

00:31:27.540 At its core

00:31:29.100 Right, it's not just like a protest movement

00:31:32.060 A protest movement

00:31:34.400 And there's like a militant wing to it

00:31:36.200 It's not that, no, at its core

00:31:37.420 It's a terrorist organisation

00:31:38.800 Hamas

00:31:40.320 So they're very, very unlikely 1.00

00:31:45.540 To disarm, for reals 0.87

00:31:47.980 So

00:31:49.500 And on we go, round and round we go

00:31:52.420 Right

00:31:54.600 Right, the metro

00:31:57.540 Ugh. Gross. Gross. Stop it. Get some help. I didn't know this, but apparently Ricky Gervais

00:32:11.340 has got a new cartoon, comedy cartoon thing. I never knew that until this morning. It's

00:32:17.520 on Netflix. I haven't got Netflix. I've got no intention of ever getting Netflix. I don't

00:32:21.580 need more subversion pumped into my eyeballs, so no thanks, Netflix. But apparently, just

00:32:26.540 real quick it was like panned people said it was critics said it wasn't very good but the public

00:32:34.120 think it is because it's like top of the Netflix chart there you go new Ricky Gervais cartoon thing

00:32:40.060 about with cats on some level all right there you go PM vows to close subscription traps

00:32:47.520 and he wants a cancel culture so this is one of no sternum burnham's brilliant flagship ideas

00:32:56.000 To help in the cost of living crisis

00:32:58.700 To help normal people

00:33:00.340 Have slightly more money in their pockets

00:33:03.500 By making stricter laws about

00:33:06.940 Subscribing or unsubscribing to things

00:33:10.300 It's really tinkering around the edges, isn't it?

00:33:14.480 Not that that's not a thing

00:33:15.520 But you know what it's like

00:33:17.460 You subscribe to something, whatever it is

00:33:19.800 LotusEaters.com

00:33:21.240 You can see the sign up for this £5 a month

00:33:23.120 Bronze Team membership

00:33:23.700 You subscribe up to something

00:33:25.200 or quite often it's to do with motor vehicles right it's to do with like insurance policies

00:33:29.560 and stuff but it could be anything could be anything you subscribe to it and then one way

00:33:34.680 or another you sort of forget about it but that company whoever they are just keep taking the 0.55

00:33:41.940 money every month and they might even up they'll send you one email that only goes into your junk

00:33:46.180 mail you never even see it um they say we're upping our monthly subscriptions and they take

00:33:52.520 the money out and they keep just keep taking the money out of your account or you even try to

00:33:56.600 unsubscribe to something like that and it's difficult it's not straightforward it's not

00:34:00.540 just two clicks it's like yeah they actually make it a bit difficult for you or you think you've done

00:34:04.980 it you actually think you've done it reform UK am I going to get political reform UK

00:34:10.580 I had a problem with that and apparently loads of other people did you go to unsubscribe to

00:34:16.260 reform UK because I was a member wasn't I and it says yes you've unsubscribed and then you see the

00:34:20.960 next month they're still taking the money. You're like, oh, I unsubscribe. All right,

00:34:23.900 you get it, you get it. All sorts of things. So they need to have a proper reform unnecessarily

00:34:28.340 there. It's a thing, isn't it, in life? Well, Andy Burnham thinks that a great policy,

00:34:36.700 nationwide government policy, to help with the crisis of living is to stricken up rules

00:34:42.160 on that to make it easier to unsubscribe, to make it harder for companies to fail to

00:34:47.140 recognize your unsubscription to something really it's that deck chair on the titanic moved quarter

00:34:54.820 of a meal isn't it burnham tour to slash britain's bills begins and his first this first pledge

00:35:03.260 could save you 170 pounds a year all depends how many things you've subscribed to that you don't

00:35:07.620 want to be you don't want to subscribe to anymore doesn't it yeah he's going on a tour he's going

00:35:11.320 on a nationwide tour this is the thing burnham thinks he's brilliant at largely to do with uh

00:35:16.040 largely born out of the Hillsborough disaster that he's the great listener

00:35:21.580 he's a man of the people remember he's from the north have you got that yet

00:35:26.920 that he's from the north have you heard that have you seen this heard about this

00:35:29.900 seen this he's from the north so he's normal he's a working-class fella he's

00:35:35.000 just like you or I and he listens you see he will listen to you and your

00:35:40.280 are concerned. That's his shtick. So he's going on a tour around the country to listen

00:35:48.440 to Britons and their problems and all about their bills. Why would you believe it? Why

00:35:58.180 would you believe any of that? Of course he's got his political ideological agenda and he's

00:36:08.120 going to pursue it as hard as any other leader. That's the thing, the Hillsborough disaster

00:36:15.220 on that. He made himself a reputation for being a great listener.

00:36:25.820 Anyone who doesn't know, at Sheffield Wednesday's game in the late 1980s, Liverpool were playing,

00:36:31.560 who were they playing? Were they playing Newcastle? I can't remember who they were playing. Liverpool

00:36:35.280 were playing somebody in i think the fa cup semi-final used to be played at a ground called

00:36:40.560 hillsborough which was sheffield wednesday's ground and they had terraces ie there were no seats

00:36:49.440 in the stands the the stands weren't seats it's just just open concrete steps effectively

00:36:55.680 terracing so you can cram loads more people in you stand shoulder to shoulder crammed in

00:36:59.520 Beardo hit the bar

00:37:05.920 Peter, like a few minutes in

00:37:09.580 Peter Beardsley had a shot

00:37:11.340 He hit the bar

00:37:13.340 Was it the post?

00:37:14.320 Nearly scored

00:37:15.080 And the Liverpool fans were like

00:37:18.500 Oh, nearly scored

00:37:19.540 Loads of Liverpool fans outside the ground

00:37:21.600 Thought they'd missed a goal

00:37:22.660 And they all crammed in real quick

00:37:25.660 And it caused a crush

00:37:26.960 Loads of people died

00:37:32.320 What like 96 people died

00:37:33.680 100 people died

00:37:35.100 Just short of 100 people

00:37:35.940 I can't remember the exact final death toll

00:37:37.520 It was quite a lot

00:37:39.200 I think it was in the 90s wasn't it

00:37:41.560 Something like that

00:37:42.160 It was like a lot of people died

00:37:43.440 And horribly as well

00:37:44.880 Being crushed to death

00:37:45.800 Oh because at the front

00:37:46.920 At the very front of the terracing

00:37:48.300 There was like

00:37:49.600 Like a fence

00:37:52.860 A metal fence

00:37:54.680 So the people at the front had nowhere to go

00:37:57.920 When there was a surge from behind

00:37:59.200 They had nowhere to go

00:37:59.900 And it was a horrible way to die like that

00:38:04.700 Being crushed

00:38:05.200 Really terrible

00:38:06.320 The hills were a disaster

00:38:09.100 And then for years after

00:38:10.820 The families and the city of Liverpool

00:38:12.980 Lots and lots of people

00:38:14.340 Wanted a full inquiry

00:38:16.920 And then another inquiry

00:38:18.220 And then another inquiry

00:38:19.520 And apportioned blame all over the place

00:38:22.260 The police, the designers of the stadium

00:38:24.660 The Sun

00:38:27.040 The Sun did some

00:38:28.780 Headlines in very very poor taste

00:38:31.240 Accusing some of the Liverpool fans

00:38:33.660 Of things they didn't do

00:38:34.540 He just rolled on and on and on

00:38:36.560 The Hillsborough saga

00:38:37.640 Rolled on and on and on and on

00:38:40.140 Until finally

00:38:41.260 No Stern and Burnham

00:38:42.840 As Mayor of Manchester

00:38:44.540 At one point

00:38:45.880 Was like I'm listening to you guys

00:38:48.380 I'm listening

00:38:49.000 You want another inquiry

00:38:50.280 That just basically says

00:38:51.560 That none of the Liverpool fans

00:38:54.700 Have got any responsibility

00:38:55.720 For anything that happened

00:38:56.780 It was everyone else

00:38:57.640 It was everyone and everything else

00:38:59.120 Other than the Liverpool fans

00:39:00.960 At the back pushing

00:39:01.620 I'm listening to you

00:39:02.840 I'm listening to you 1.00

00:39:03.900 I'll probably get a load of crap 0.99

00:39:08.000 Just for that 0.98

00:39:08.580 Just for saying that

00:39:09.440 Mentioning

00:39:11.000 That the actual force

00:39:12.800 That crushed the life

00:39:13.800 Out of the Liverpool fans

00:39:14.640 At the front

00:39:15.060 Was Liverpool fans at the back

00:39:16.720 I'll get loads of stick for that

00:39:18.320 Doesn't really matter

00:39:19.860 That's the reality

00:39:20.640 That's the laws of physics

00:39:23.160 That cause those deaths

00:39:24.760 It's the police

00:39:27.220 The police's fault

00:39:30.260 They should have stopped the Liverpool fans

00:39:32.520 From doing that to their own

00:39:34.400 Probably get loads of stick for that

00:39:38.400 I don't care, I don't care

00:39:39.500 I know what happened that day, we know what happened

00:39:41.160 Weird

00:39:44.900 Alright, the Telegraph, the Daily Telegraph

00:39:50.640 China, this is great, get a load of this, Chinese spy cameras found on navy drones, British navy drones

00:40:02.640 Right, so the British navy has got special forces, special forces boats being used in Hormuz training missions

00:40:10.640 Were secretly sending data overseas

00:40:20.640 Sort of unbelievable isn't it

00:40:24.360 Apparently we spent something like

00:40:26.880 A few million, 12 million or something

00:40:28.840 On some drones

00:40:29.820 Certain components of them 0.96

00:40:33.340 Were Chinese built

00:40:34.440 And not only that it's just that 1.00

00:40:36.980 But they're actually sending back

00:40:39.360 Data from our

00:40:41.180 Special Forces military training

00:40:43.220 Back to China

00:40:44.980 And still now, when I moan about China 0.91

00:40:51.820 And the threat that China poses 0.99

00:40:53.020 And the espionage and counter-espionage programs 0.93

00:40:55.580 That go on against Britain from China

00:40:58.080 Still now, sometimes we'll get a comment

00:41:00.200 Saying, oh Bo, why are you worried about the Chinese?

00:41:04.240 They're no threat to us

00:41:05.400 Aren't they?

00:41:10.120 Aren't they?

00:41:14.980 Oh, the Chinese have never done any harm to me.

00:41:17.400 What are you talking about?

00:41:20.060 Get a clue.

00:41:22.480 Get a clue.

00:41:25.400 All right. 1.00

00:41:26.400 There's Nigel Farage, capitulates to Islam, laughing it up. 0.93

00:41:32.060 It's his by-election on Thursday. 0.98

00:41:35.680 Polling day is Thursday, I believe.

00:41:37.040 So we'll get the

00:41:45.100 Hopefully we'll have the result Friday morning for you

00:41:47.540 On Breakfast with Bowie, the bow show

00:41:48.600 Those seats as breakfast club, don't you forget about me

00:41:50.940 Hopefully we'll have the result on Friday morning

00:41:55.160 Might not, sometimes

00:41:57.140 It's possible

00:41:59.720 But there probably won't be any recounts or anything

00:42:02.660 Because Nigel will win it by a landslide, won't he? 0.92

00:42:04.260 And with someone like Count Bin face 0.99

00:42:07.240 I saw one poll 1.00

00:42:08.620 He's as high as 20%

00:42:09.840 All the other parties

00:42:12.660 Even Kai Stevens

00:42:14.720 Go Kai Stevens

00:42:15.440 Even him and Lawrence Fox

00:42:17.320 Or whatever

00:42:17.760 Or like the 30, 40 other

00:42:19.820 Or loads, aren't there?

00:42:21.180 Loads of other people standing in it

00:42:23.540 They'll all get peanuts won't they

00:42:25.100 I'm afraid

00:42:25.540 They'll all get hardly any votes

00:42:27.200 So Nigel will probably win it

00:42:29.480 With like a 70% margin or whatever

00:42:32.580 because it's a bit of a joke of a by-election is it it's a stunt in order to

00:42:39.280 stave off the inevitable investigation into his finances 0.86

00:42:43.340 so anyway i'm sure he nigel will win it handily so there probably won't be recounts so we'll 0.72

00:42:52.420 probably have the result for you on friday morning all right there is nigel laughing it up 0.80

00:42:57.740 pretending there aren't impending scandals coming down the pipeline

00:43:01.900 who knows camping face might pull off a turn up for the books

00:43:10.200 infantino's lover given 150 000 pounds by uefa so that very very quickly this infantino you know

00:43:18.640 the head of fifa before he was the head of fifa he was the head of uefa fifa the world football

00:43:24.200 governing body uefa the european governing body apparently quite a few years ago what back in the

00:43:28.660 early 2000s he had a lover who worked at the uefa and when she left she got some sort of massive

00:43:35.360 payout of 150 grand um and there may be there may be impropriety there everything might not

00:43:42.360 have been perfectly above board and legit anyway that's the story don't really care though right

00:43:46.880 prisons risk running out of space thanks to rise in repeat offenders yeah we would need to either

00:43:54.680 deport a bunch of people, which we should have done anyway, or build another prison,

00:43:59.520 a few more prisons, one or the other, seems pretty obvious. All right, Tim Stanley says

00:44:04.140 some ridiculous take. Tim Stanley, this boy LARPing as a political analyst, where'd he 0.95

00:44:12.620 even come from? Where's Tim Stanley come from? Is he related to someone really senior at

00:44:17.960 the Telegraph? Or has he allowed himself to... I won't go down that route. Why are Tim Stanley

00:44:26.540 who's hand-picked? God only knows. How does Hollywood hand-pick someone that they want

00:44:33.420 to be an A-lister? How does the legacy corporate lamestream media hand-pick someone to be like

00:44:38.580 a mouthpiece and an opinion writer? What was the quid pro quo? What was the quid pro quo,

00:44:45.360 Tim. What did you have to do or submit to? Just ask him, mate. Just ask him.

00:44:56.300 Here we go. Tim Stanley, get a load of this. We are all Jason Arday now.

00:45:03.700 Who hasn't told a tall tale? What are you doing? What is that? What do you think you're talking

00:45:11.320 about we're all Jason Arday now that black professor Cambridge who obviously lied complete 0.97

00:45:17.360 Walter Mitty complete charlatan lying and lying and lying and lying we're all him now no we're 0.88

00:45:22.020 not no we're not who hasn't told a tall tale me my CV is impeccably honest 1.00

00:45:27.560 we're all Jason Arday now what planet are you living on Tim you mug you pathetic cretin 1.00

00:45:37.520 Obviously they came to you and say 1.00

00:45:40.640 Write this piece of defence on behalf of Jason Ardy

00:45:43.920 You're just like, yes sir

00:45:46.420 Yeah, whatever you want

00:45:48.600 Just give me that good job and a bit of money 0.99

00:45:51.440 Pathetic, really, really is 0.99

00:45:57.260 Basically who doesn't tell loads and loads of lies all the time 1.00

00:46:02.520 Tim asks

00:46:03.280 Most people, most normal people

00:46:05.900 It's called being honest 0.99

00:46:07.340 It's called being not a scumbag 0.99

00:46:10.420 That's what that's called 0.99

00:46:11.840 Tim Stanley 1.00

00:46:15.520 What a pathetic 1.00

00:46:17.020 Disgusting creature 1.00

00:46:19.700 Creature of the establishment 1.00

00:46:23.420 You're supposed to believe

00:46:25.400 That it is just a normal

00:46:27.100 Basically a normal person, normal journalist

00:46:29.020 Just giving you his take

00:46:30.760 He's just got an opinion

00:46:31.960 No

00:46:34.660 A hand-picked chill

00:46:37.980 Alright, the times, the venerable times

00:46:41.560 Increased risk of blackouts from planned to cut electricity bills

00:46:47.480 Well, Burnham wanted to take us back to the 70s

00:46:50.800 And I guess he will

00:46:53.560 In the 1970s, a three-day week

00:46:57.540 There was like an oil crisis, ring any bells?

00:47:00.240 Oil crisis in the early 70s

00:47:01.960 The OPEC crisis

00:47:03.380 Where the oil producing countries of the Middle East

00:47:06.100 Largely Saudi Arabia

00:47:07.160 Decided

00:47:08.920 It's a really complicated thing

00:47:11.400 I'll have to spend 5-10 minutes just describing exactly what happened in that

00:47:14.120 But the long short of it was

00:47:15.540 There was oil shortages

00:47:17.220 In the United States and Britain

00:47:19.220 And all over the world in fact

00:47:20.120 And some quite bad financial issues

00:47:24.420 Economic issues in the 70s

00:47:26.800 In Britain

00:47:28.180 To the point where there was a 3 day week

00:47:29.740 Offices and factories close

00:47:33.420 For two days a week

00:47:35.180 Well as well as the weekend

00:47:36.700 So working for three days, four days off

00:47:39.440 Because there wasn't enough power

00:47:41.380 There wasn't enough power

00:47:44.100 People have to get candles

00:47:45.540 When the sun goes down

00:47:47.520 You have to use candles

00:47:49.200 Because there's no power on the lights

00:47:50.640 Andy Burnham wants a return to the 70s

00:47:54.440 Everything was better before Thatcher

00:47:56.140 In the 80s

00:47:57.300 Says Burnham

00:47:58.340 Increased risk of blackouts now

00:48:02.080 But this is also to do with green policies

00:48:05.500 The National Energy System Operator

00:48:09.400 Says that it's to do with inertia

00:48:13.460 What they call inertia

00:48:14.600 Which is a type of national shock absorber

00:48:18.160 Just the ability to make sure you've got enough power at all times

00:48:22.600 right 0.66

00:48:24.680 and to meet green

00:48:28.380 green energy policies

00:48:30.260 they're going to reduce the threshold

00:48:33.140 of certain things, anyway the net result may well be

00:48:35.180 blackouts

00:48:35.740 great

00:48:38.000 great, thank you

00:48:40.080 they've got a story here, PM advisor

00:48:43.120 concerned over labour wealth taxes

00:48:44.760 this one economist that Andy Burnham wants

00:48:47.100 in his team, an ex-Goldwyn Sacks

00:48:49.120 dude, great

00:48:50.840 He's worried about the wealth taxes

00:48:54.100 And he's worried about his own businesses as well

00:48:55.980 Someone called O'Neill

00:48:56.900 That's his surname

00:48:58.220 Andy Burnham offered him a place in government

00:49:02.280 Or as an advisor to government or something

00:49:05.060 Senior advisor to government

00:49:06.240 And he's like, I don't know about that

00:49:07.760 I'm making loads more money not doing that

00:49:10.820 And I don't necessarily agree with your policies

00:49:13.740 Economist unconvinced about taking number 10 role

00:49:18.960 Yeah, okay

00:49:19.400 Look at this 1.00

00:49:20.780 filth if anyone is only listening to the audio there's a boat of african migrant where the 1.00

00:49:26.600 sub-saharan or north african migrants illegally getting on a boat in calais a small boat a dinghy 0.67

00:49:32.200 might have been a super dinghy you've got super dinghies now remember

00:49:35.540 um just completely and utterly illegal by definition every single one the person

00:49:42.940 every single person crossing the channel like that without permission without a passport or a

00:49:47.900 That's all in order

00:49:49.480 By definition that's illegal

00:49:51.000 By definition they're an invader

00:49:53.020 This dude, this beast

00:49:55.940 This beast man

00:49:57.620 This barbarian 0.68

00:49:58.520 He's got a little baby 1.00

00:49:59.620 You don't hold babies like that 0.96

00:50:03.640 As well, on top of everything else

00:50:05.380 Whenever you see someone holding a baby like that

00:50:07.900 In some fashion like that

00:50:09.100 It's going to put a lot of pressure on his tiny little shoulder

00:50:13.840 That

00:50:14.100 It's not how you hold a little baby

00:50:16.820 Cradle them, support their head

00:50:21.120 You don't just hold it by its arm like that

00:50:23.060 Oh, it's just horrible

00:50:25.820 Is that even his baby?

00:50:27.880 Don't know 1.00

00:50:28.380 Don't know, they're unvetted people, aren't they?

00:50:31.520 They could be anyone from anywhere

00:50:33.160 Is that his baby? 0.95

00:50:36.640 Why are you taking a little baby?

00:50:38.540 Months old baby

00:50:39.660 That'd be an under one year old, won't it?

00:50:41.940 Probably

00:50:42.180 Taking that on an illegal dinghy crossing

00:50:46.000 Across the English Channel

00:50:47.160 Quite a dangerous

00:50:49.880 Relatively dangerous

00:50:51.180 Stretch of water

00:50:51.820 In the North Atlantic

00:50:52.640 That is

00:50:53.140 One of the busiest

00:50:54.620 Shipping lanes

00:50:55.360 In the world

00:50:56.140 On a rickety old dinghy

00:50:58.760 That's far too crowded

00:51:01.040 Gonna take a little

00:51:02.140 Under one year old

00:51:02.960 On that

00:51:03.300 Hold him up by his arm

00:51:05.000 What is that

00:51:07.640 Then the French police

00:51:08.920 Just standing there

00:51:10.040 Watching them as well

00:51:10.740 That's part of this story

00:51:11.740 French police on the beach

00:51:13.440 Just arms folded

00:51:15.200 Just watch him 0.95

00:51:16.000 crazy crazy burnham cannot block release of pc's killers that's that um that's that policeman that 0.72

00:51:29.120 was dragged along the road harper pc harper andy burnham wants to try and block the release of his

00:51:35.760 killers two of his three killers but can't just can't i mean he can if he wanted to he'd bring

00:51:42.000 If he really wanted to

00:51:43.240 He could insist Parliament comes back early from its summer recess

00:51:46.440 Try and get an actual act of Parliament through

00:51:49.220 It takes a long time actually

00:51:50.480 But if he really wanted to

00:51:52.680 He could use some sort of executive power

00:51:57.060 Called an emergency

00:52:00.240 If he really wanted to spend a decent amount of political capital, time and energy on it

00:52:05.780 He could

00:52:06.200 He absolutely could

00:52:08.440 I'm sure there'll be half a dozen ways

00:52:12.760 That you could just say

00:52:13.880 No, the Home Office is now saying

00:52:15.420 Something this specific about prisons

00:52:17.600 About parole

00:52:18.740 We're just implementing that now

00:52:21.220 We are the Home Office, we are the government

00:52:22.640 If you really wanted to

00:52:24.720 You could

00:52:25.360 As I say, even pass an Act of Parliament

00:52:28.380 Repeal a previous Act which allowed this

00:52:30.920 And that wouldn't be quick

00:52:32.640 But nonetheless

00:52:33.140 All he'll do is go out in front of the camera

00:52:36.540 Saying I'll try and stop it

00:52:38.440 Oh no I can't, next thing, that's what that is, Financial Times, Gaza talks, Israel spurns

00:52:50.260 US peace plan, we've done that haven't we, Trump is dismantling US democratic guardrails,

00:52:55.700 warns former CIA officials, that's rich, the CIA warning against democratic guardrails,

00:53:04.100 the CIA, that's rich.

00:53:08.440 Oh, that's funny

00:53:10.200 I hope this is an attempt at comedy

00:53:12.140 An attempt at being droll

00:53:16.780 CIA officials have said that Trump's moves

00:53:24.140 Are out of autocrats playbook

00:53:26.920 CIA going to lecture anyone else

00:53:30.720 On acting in an autocratic manner

00:53:33.020 And sort of off the books manner

00:53:35.160 Checks on executive power eroded

00:53:39.020 Alarm at personality cult

00:53:41.020 Yeah, get real

00:53:42.080 Get real

00:53:43.560 Absolute slop

00:53:45.880 Intelligence services slop

00:53:48.780 Don't buy it

00:53:51.940 Don't buy it

00:53:52.840 I'm not interested in hearing it

00:53:54.020 Right, the Daily Star

00:53:55.540 What are they serving up for us?

00:53:57.340 Sloppy Joe is the star serving up for us

00:54:00.500 Texans love Wrexham

00:54:02.660 Wrexans

00:54:04.520 Like Texans, you see 1.00

00:54:06.360 Can you see the clever wordplay?

00:54:11.080 Texans? No, no, Rexans 1.00

00:54:13.040 Americans moved to Wales after Ryan Byers' footy club

00:54:17.880 Wasn't that ages ago?

00:54:19.580 Ryan Reynolds

00:54:20.360 Ryan Reynolds and that guy off Always Sunny

00:54:23.540 What's his name? McHenry or whatever

00:54:25.660 It's got some difficult surname to pronounce

00:54:27.860 He's Mac off of Always Sunny

00:54:30.100 Him and Ryan Reynolds bought Rexham ages ago

00:54:32.840 Like years ago, wasn't it?

00:54:34.520 Wasn't it not years ago they bought it?

00:54:36.780 So anyway, apparently, there's at least one couple from Texas

00:54:40.640 who love Ryan Reynolds and Wrexham Football Club so much

00:54:44.700 that they've decided to move to Wrexham.

00:54:49.260 That's the most important thing going on in the world right now,

00:54:52.600 according to the Star.

00:54:53.540 That's front and centre.

00:54:55.400 That's front page news, that is.

00:54:59.660 This couple from Texas moved to Wrexham.

00:55:04.520 Front page

00:55:06.540 Alright

00:55:10.060 The increasingly absurd and frustrating front pages out of Fleet Street

00:55:15.020 The British print media this morning

00:55:16.940 Okay, if you have a look at our poll

00:55:20.860 We do a poll every night

00:55:21.660 I don't mean if you see this time in the show

00:55:23.480 We have a look at our poll

00:55:24.920 Harry, have you been out for me?

00:55:26.020 Oh, you've already done it

00:55:26.600 Okay, there it is

00:55:27.260 We asked you guys

00:55:28.420 Are Banks' works art or criminal damage?

00:55:37.460 Just under 1,000 people voted on that

00:55:39.500 And criminal damage wins with 73%

00:55:44.840 27% if you say art

00:55:47.220 It's not as a convincing win as I'd hoped

00:55:49.380 I'd hoped that would be a real slam dunk

00:55:51.860 We'd get into the 90s, the high 80s, low 90s on that one

00:55:55.080 73% still stonking win

00:55:58.040 You'd claim a mandate full time

00:56:01.200 If that was a national referendum

00:56:02.240 Wouldn't you

00:56:02.600 But nearly 73%

00:56:06.460 27% of you

00:56:08.340 Nearly a third of you

00:56:10.820 Think that Banksy

00:56:11.740 Is

00:56:12.200 Well I mean it is art

00:56:15.100 Okay alright

00:56:15.640 Maybe

00:56:16.000 Maybe

00:56:16.600 Maybe we should have worded that slightly better

00:56:20.220 Because it is art

00:56:21.700 Is it good art

00:56:24.800 you know like a Rothko okay I'll concede that it's art is it good art by Andy Warhol prints

00:56:33.680 okay okay it's art all right like Duchamp's urinal okay I'll accept it's art is it good art

00:56:41.680 is it of any real value a Tracy Emin thing okay all right I'll accept it's art all right okay yeah

00:56:52.360 Is it good

00:56:54.020 Is it criminal damage

00:56:58.260 Well at least like a Tracy Emin bed

00:57:01.040 At least it's just in a gallery

00:57:04.300 Or whatever

00:57:06.500 You're not actually causing criminal damage

00:57:08.720 The state doesn't have to pay for it to be cleaned up and removed

00:57:14.300 Alright 73%

00:57:17.500 I'd hoped for more

00:57:19.100 I'm not annoyed

00:57:20.620 I'm not angry

00:57:21.600 I'm just a bit disappointed

00:57:24.220 I'm only joking

00:57:27.520 Don't go

00:57:28.100 Don't leave me

00:57:32.660 I still love you

00:57:33.700 Alright

00:57:35.620 Did you have a look at some of the other

00:57:37.280 Checking with the price of oil

00:57:39.940 West Texas

00:57:41.680 $78

00:57:42.560 Brent crude

00:57:44.140 $83

00:57:46.160 About what it was when the war

00:57:48.580 In Persia started

00:57:50.640 Roughly 0.85

00:57:51.160 It was slightly higher

00:57:52.040 Slightly

00:57:52.700 Alright

00:57:53.820 Do we have any other news?

00:57:55.380 Any other interesting

00:57:56.100 Very interesting stories

00:57:57.400 There was

00:57:58.200 One or two

00:57:59.800 Look at that guy

00:58:01.120 Holding that baby

00:58:01.680 Oh

00:58:01.920 Whenever I see

00:58:02.580 Whenever I see someone

00:58:03.900 Holding a baby

00:58:04.640 Like that

00:58:05.420 Or

00:58:05.680 Not quite

00:58:06.780 Mmm

00:58:08.300 Ugh

00:58:09.520 Occasionally you might see

00:58:13.020 Someone like

00:58:13.440 Holding a dog

00:58:14.140 Or a puppy

00:58:14.540 Or a cat

00:58:15.060 Like that

00:58:15.800 It's like

00:58:16.420 Oh

00:58:16.820 Mmm

00:58:18.660 That's not right

00:58:19.320 it's not right 1.00

00:58:21.140 Anne Hathaway's pregnant there 1.00

00:58:22.940 look 1.00

00:58:23.220 in her early forties 0.86

00:58:28.640 um

00:58:29.120 there was one story

00:58:30.180 I think they changed the

00:58:32.320 yeah they changed the websites

00:58:36.340 in the last 40 minutes

00:58:37.880 hour

00:58:38.480 there's other stories on there

00:58:40.360 which were of interest

00:58:41.420 but

00:58:41.660 they've moved it around now

00:58:43.580 alright what's the time

00:58:45.860 what are we looking at

00:58:46.460 oh it's nine o'clock

00:58:47.280 basically nine o'clock

00:58:48.620 Shall we

00:58:49.640 Shall we just move on to

00:58:52.260 On this day in history

00:58:53.200 Shall we do that

00:58:54.600 Oh this is the thing I mentioned earlier

00:58:57.780 Just before we do

00:58:58.300 One last thing then

00:58:58.920 Before we do on this day in history

00:58:59.920 This is the thing I mentioned earlier

00:59:01.500 In the sun

00:59:02.460 An opinion piece in the sun

00:59:04.400 Tony Parsons says

00:59:07.300 Bunk off Burnham

00:59:09.540 Bunking off if you don't know

00:59:12.700 Just means like skipping school

00:59:14.200 Being truant

00:59:14.960 That's a British term

00:59:18.040 Did I use that in America or Australia?

00:59:21.140 To bunk off school is just to play truant.

00:59:23.860 Because Burnham went on holiday the other day.

00:59:25.600 Can you believe that?

00:59:27.040 He's only been in the job two weeks, three weeks.

00:59:29.380 He's already going on holiday.

00:59:31.560 It's all right, though.

00:59:32.340 He's still in.

00:59:33.100 He's still on the old blower.

00:59:34.660 It's a white hole.

00:59:36.200 Don't worry about it.

00:59:37.500 Got number 10 north on speed dial if he needs them.

00:59:41.340 He's on holiday. 0.96

00:59:42.140 so bunk off burnham risks career suicide while he sucks cornetto ice cream on it 0.76

00:59:50.860 oh he says i know and tony pastor says i know how to stop early release 0.52

00:59:57.580 no one hit us with it tony hit us with its own what's the great what's your great idea

01:00:03.020 send foreigners back yeah yeah because that's sort of obvious in it 0.99

01:00:08.140 I don't know how many 1.00

01:00:10.380 I think it's up

01:00:11.120 Around 10,000

01:00:12.000 Isn't it

01:00:12.320 Something in that ballpark

01:00:13.240 10,000 odd

01:00:15.020 Actual foreign nationals

01:00:16.580 In our prisons

01:00:17.180 Deport them

01:00:19.140 Why we're paying for them 0.99

01:00:22.100 At all is insane

01:00:23.440 Deport them

01:00:25.720 To the land 1.00

01:00:26.240 Of their ancestors

01:00:27.160 Their countries of origin

01:00:28.960 Where they belong 0.98

01:00:29.840 Where they can go

01:00:30.720 And be a plight

01:00:31.260 On that society

01:00:32.240 Instead of ours

01:00:32.900 Where they can go

01:00:33.580 And be a drain

01:00:34.320 And a danger

01:00:35.000 To that society

01:00:36.360 Instead of ours

01:00:37.160 Yeah 1.00

01:00:37.660 Deport them 0.99

01:00:38.340 Yeah

01:00:39.480 Okay

01:00:41.540 On this day in history

01:00:43.740 10th of August

01:00:45.300 10th of the century

01:00:47.480 What happened of that?

01:00:48.180 Right, what we got?

01:00:49.040 What we got?

01:00:50.460 Ah, the fall of Nineveh 1.00

01:00:51.820 A great story

01:00:53.000 A brilliant, brilliant story

01:00:54.060 On this day, roughly

01:00:56.280 An approximate date

01:00:57.100 In the year 612 BC

01:01:01.040 612 BC

01:01:03.600 So long, long time ago

01:01:06.820 Before the rise of truly classical Athens or anything

01:01:10.260 The fall of Nineveh 0.96

01:01:12.220 Nineveh is a city

01:01:13.120 It's actually near modern day Mosul

01:01:15.860 In modern day Iraq

01:01:17.080 Fall of Nineveh to the Babylonians 0.99

01:01:20.100 And the forces of the Medes 1.00

01:01:21.500 Sort of the Persians 0.99

01:01:22.940 The Medes 1.00

01:01:23.480 Leads to the sack of one of the greatest cities in the world

01:01:28.140 Perhaps the greatest city in the world at that point 1.00

01:01:30.100 The destruction of the Neo-Assyrian Empire 1.00

01:01:33.720 And the death of King 0.92

01:01:35.280 I won't pronounce this correctly

01:01:37.020 Sinsharisishukun 1.00

01:01:40.480 I won't be pronouncing that correctly

01:01:42.520 He's not a particularly famous Assyrian king

01:01:45.500 Because he was right at the end of it

01:01:47.240 Even one generation before

01:01:49.260 You still had great

01:01:50.160 Notable kings

01:01:53.060 But that last one was not so much

01:01:54.760 Anyway, Nineveh was one of their capitals

01:01:57.800 Arguably their most important city

01:01:59.880 Perhaps

01:02:00.380 And 0.99

01:02:02.920 The Assyrians had been going around the ancient world 0.96

01:02:06.160 The old, old world, as Dan Carling calls it 1.00

01:02:08.140 The old, old world

01:02:09.680 More ancient than the ancient world in a way

01:02:13.900 If you know what I mean

01:02:14.580 It's like the classical

01:02:16.180 Or even like the Hellenistic world

01:02:18.980 Before that, the old, old world 1.00

01:02:20.760 The Assyrians had gone around the Middle East, the Near East 1.00

01:02:23.960 Basically like modern day

01:02:26.440 Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Syria

01:02:31.720 Turkey

01:02:32.960 Egypt

01:02:34.640 They've been going around there

01:02:37.780 For like a thousand years or so

01:02:39.360 Just shy of a thousand years

01:02:42.100 Conquering

01:02:44.440 Raping

01:02:45.260 Pillaging 0.53

01:02:45.760 The whole nine yards

01:02:46.940 Been unstoppable

01:02:49.900 For quite a long time

01:02:51.260 In fact

01:02:51.760 Oh

01:02:52.080 Do you reckon

01:03:11.640 of hours of content quite literally without exaggeration hundreds and hundreds of hours

01:03:15.580 of content do you think i've got a mini series talking all about the syrian empire

01:03:20.540 what's the chances that that's a real thing i reckon 0.85

01:03:26.560 Or you can bet your sweet ass it's there 0.89

01:03:31.100 Because it is multiple, multiple parts 0.95

01:03:34.840 I can't remember how many parts that was

01:03:36.100 It was quite early on

01:03:37.020 I can't remember if it's half a dozen parts about that

01:03:40.660 Or only three or four

01:03:41.820 But anyway

01:03:42.240 Quite a few hours of me and Carl Benjamin in conversation

01:03:47.520 In fact, one time we went to the British Museum

01:03:49.960 Physically went there

01:03:50.920 And went in the ancient Assyrian galleries in the British Museum

01:03:54.640 As like an addendum

01:03:56.460 To the series of just talking about it

01:03:58.640 So also that

01:03:59.920 You want me and Cole walking around the British Museum 1.00

01:04:02.300 Looking at Assyrian friezes

01:04:04.260 And pointing out the interesting bits

01:04:06.980 And talking more about Assyrian history

01:04:08.980 You want that? Oh it's there

01:04:09.740 I'll be behind the paywall

01:04:11.120 I'm afraid

01:04:12.440 If you want it 0.99

01:04:15.060 The fall of Nineveh 0.99

01:04:16.680 Just a turning point in history

01:04:18.600 Ancient, ancient history 0.99

01:04:19.540 The end of the Assyrian world 0.65

01:04:22.340 Really

01:04:24.640 And then, of course, there's the great account by Xenophon, the Greek, in his Anabasis.

01:04:30.500 A couple of hundred years later, 150 years, looking 200 years later,

01:04:36.060 a Greek man called Xenophon was fighting for the Persians in modern-day Iraq, Mesopotamia.

01:04:45.640 Loses, well, he doesn't lose, but his side of the battle loses.

01:04:49.460 so him and his 10 000 men greek men are just find themselves on the losing side of a big battle

01:04:56.180 against the persians in the persian empire find themselves now just effectively stranded deep deep

01:05:03.140 deep behind enemy lines effectively so they need to e and e escape and evasion they need to bug out

01:05:11.940 and they do the story of the anabasis is the story of them getting back to the greek world from deep

01:05:17.460 deep inside Persia, behind enemy lines, being harassed all the way by the Persian army.

01:05:22.220 At one point, during that trek, they come across the ruins of a giant city, a city so

01:05:32.380 giant that even men from the Greek world, populated by big cities, the polis, they knew

01:05:39.060 cities, classical Greeks, they come across in the desert, the ruins of this city that

01:05:46.180 is bigger than anything they've ever seen or heard of before and it's all ruined there's no one living

01:05:51.660 there and they asked the local people like the local tribesmen or whatever they're nearby like

01:05:57.420 what what's this what gods or men could possibly have built such a thing and locals are like we

01:06:02.600 don't know we've got no idea it's just sort of always been there already even just 150 200 years

01:06:10.440 later, already the people of that area had sort of started to forget about the Assyrian

01:06:19.700 Empire and that Nineveh was crumbling to time already. The foundations of giant walls.

01:06:29.000 Again, it's like a thing out of myth, a thing out of legend. But there is, there is, okay,

01:06:38.440 The Fall of Nineveh could talk about it.

01:06:39.780 Someone, I think someone in,

01:06:40.800 I can't remember if it was a super chat on here,

01:06:42.680 or it might have been on State of Politics.

01:06:44.300 State of Politics.

01:06:45.060 So I can't remember.

01:06:45.680 Somebody asked me about,

01:06:47.180 I think it was on here, wasn't it?

01:06:48.140 On Friday.

01:06:49.320 Did a super chat about

01:06:50.420 the Fall of Civilisations podcast.

01:06:54.900 What's my favourite one? 1.00

01:06:56.120 And I said either the Egyptian one

01:06:57.400 or the Assyrian one. 0.91

01:06:59.480 They handled that, 0.90

01:07:00.840 that thing of Xenophon 0.51

01:07:02.100 coming across the ruins of Nineveh.

01:07:05.240 In the Fall of Civilisations podcast,

01:07:07.180 they handled that very, very well.

01:07:08.440 brilliantly check that out if you're interested in that at all first port of call i think i've

01:07:14.920 even said it before i'll say it again the fall of civilizations podcast on on the assyrians is

01:07:19.360 better it's better and i'm going to be painfully honest it's better than my treatment of the topic

01:07:25.100 i'm not too proud to admit something like that

01:07:29.320 anyway fascinated by it i know carl is well carl loves the assyrians the story of it

01:07:36.380 All right, that's enough about the fall of Nineveh

01:07:39.460 You can't mention the fall of Nineveh on my birthday

01:07:42.160 And not expect me a little bit of leeway to just bang on about it for five minutes

01:07:46.120 All right, what else have we got here?

01:07:48.640 On this day in 106 AD is the traditional date of Laylat al-Qadir 0.83

01:07:54.820 The night of power when Muslims believe the Quran is first sent down from heaven to the world 0.94

01:08:01.060 And revealed to the Islamic prophet Muhammad, blessings be upon his name

01:08:06.380 Yeah, what was it?

01:08:08.980 What's the story?

01:08:09.500 The Archangel Gabriel

01:08:10.620 Or was it Michael?

01:08:12.640 I think it's Gabriel, for memory serves

01:08:14.920 The Archangel Gabriel

01:08:17.300 Or one of the Archangels 0.99

01:08:18.620 Came down to Mohammed 0.99

01:08:20.340 And told him to write 1.00

01:08:23.000 Oh, it doesn't matter, he was illiterate

01:08:24.760 Told him, I'm going to dictate to you now

01:08:27.120 The word of God

01:08:28.880 The Quran 1.00

01:08:30.360 I'm going to dictate to you now 1.00

01:08:32.020 You'll have to take it down

01:08:33.160 And remember it

01:08:34.080 And pass it on

01:08:35.020 Yeah I'm sure that happened

01:08:37.100 Yeah

01:08:37.340 Yeah I'm sure that happened

01:08:40.780 I'm sure that's just not 7th century

01:08:42.720 Mania

01:08:44.200 I'm sure that's real

01:08:47.140 Yeah

01:08:48.800 Oh and it's just a complete mishmash

01:08:54.660 Of existing

01:08:55.760 Theology and texts

01:08:58.660 And legends

01:09:00.220 And stories

01:09:01.540 Complete mishmash

01:09:04.960 On this day in 1497

01:09:12.440 Explorer John Cabot

01:09:14.000 They love that guy on this website

01:09:16.600 They love him

01:09:17.360 One of the researchers

01:09:18.820 Or whoever gets the final say

01:09:20.440 On what does or doesn't go up on here

01:09:22.140 Seems to love John Cabot

01:09:23.720 He tells King Charles VII

01:09:27.120 Henry Tudor

01:09:28.020 Of his trip to Asia

01:09:30.180 Didn't he go to Nova Scotia

01:09:33.780 Didn't he go to Canada

01:09:34.640 They thought it was Asia

01:09:36.040 No, late 15th century

01:09:38.920 Had no idea, really no idea

01:09:40.400 Anyway

01:09:43.520 On this day in 1675

01:09:46.240 King Charles II

01:09:47.600 And John Flamsteed

01:09:50.920 Lay the foundation stone

01:09:53.120 Of the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London

01:09:55.600 Been there a number of times

01:09:57.500 Greenwich Park in London

01:09:58.860 Really nice at the top of the hill

01:10:00.540 There's the Royal Observatory there

01:10:01.960 Lovely place

01:10:04.200 Go check it out if you're interested

01:10:06.680 In such things

01:10:08.080 Okay, and on this day in 1846

01:10:10.300 US Act of Congress

01:10:13.060 Passes establishment of the

01:10:15.040 Smithsonian Institution

01:10:16.220 Now the world's largest museum and research complex

01:10:19.020 Which is good, which is nice

01:10:20.480 I've never been to the Smithsonian

01:10:22.140 I've never been to Washington DC

01:10:23.780 I would like to, I'd absolutely like to

01:10:26.200 There's a number of things in DC

01:10:28.180 I would like to visit and see

01:10:29.560 I've never been there, hopefully one day

01:10:31.360 Hopefully one day

01:10:32.920 and the smithsonian would be is it top of my list i think it might be i think it probably would be

01:10:38.080 okay their collection there most a lot of which which is the case with all large museums

01:10:44.160 isn't even on show and they'll have archives and underground basements and stuff with full of

01:10:49.500 more stuff way more stuff than they can actually exhibit um yeah the smithsonian collection

01:10:56.980 quite a remarkable thing really quite a remarkable thing because of course in the 19th century and

01:11:02.760 Early 20th century

01:11:04.040 You had lots of

01:11:04.920 Extremely famous

01:11:06.680 Collectors

01:11:07.460 Some super rich people

01:11:09.200 I don't know

01:11:09.660 Like J.P. Morgan

01:11:10.800 Himself

01:11:11.220 Or whatever

01:11:11.920 The Vanderbilts

01:11:14.100 Or whatever

01:11:14.480 Now

01:11:14.920 They'd collect

01:11:16.880 They're so rich

01:11:18.460 They could collect

01:11:19.040 Things like

01:11:19.400 Ultra ultra rare things

01:11:22.120 Like the original copy

01:11:23.360 Of the first folio

01:11:24.280 By Shakespeare

01:11:24.880 Or whatever it is

01:11:25.800 They're so rich

01:11:27.680 That if anything like that

01:11:29.160 Ever came up to auction

01:11:30.060 They could and would

01:11:31.000 Just buy it

01:11:32.760 A lot of that stuff ends up in the Smithsonian collection.

01:11:37.400 All right, okay, all right.

01:11:38.680 Shall we have a look at our Rumble Rants and Super Chats?

01:11:41.660 Let me do this with my mic boom so I can see the left-hand side of my screen.

01:11:45.440 Do you think Global Church History is going to be in at number one today?

01:11:47.960 Is it going to be a good day for my birthday?

01:11:51.260 I hope so. Let's have a look then.

01:11:54.980 Yes, he is in at number one.

01:11:57.220 You've got to get up early in the morning, quite literally,

01:11:59.780 to beat Global Church History.

01:12:01.080 First name global, middle name church

01:12:03.740 Surname history

01:12:04.780 Tells us, he gives us two facts usually

01:12:06.680 The first one says

01:12:07.720 Today in 843 AD

01:12:10.520 St. Louis the Pious

01:12:12.240 His sons

01:12:15.420 Lothar, Louis and Charles

01:12:17.360 Divided his empire at Verdun

01:12:19.960 So that would be upon the death of 1.00

01:12:23.660 St. Louis the Pious 1.00

01:12:25.160 Who is that?

01:12:27.880 St. Louis the Pious 0.62

01:12:29.340 Who was that?

01:12:30.600 you ask well he was the son of charlemagne if you're going to be a history nerd particularly

01:12:37.540 like a european history you've got to know about charlemagne you've got to really know all about

01:12:42.660 charlemagne great story great life anyway the line of succession after him was really clear

01:12:50.300 his eldest son well i think he's the only surviving son louis the pious inherits charlemagne's vast

01:12:56.640 european empire most of modern day france germany northern italy

01:13:01.700 a huge huge empire and he passes it on to his son but then when he dies he had three sons

01:13:12.100 and they were warring amongst themselves and against him shades of henry ii henry plantagenet

01:13:18.140 and his sons henry the young king richard the lionheart and john lackland you've got grown-up

01:13:25.440 sons that are powerful badasses in their own right, and they're not prepared to wait for Daddy

01:13:30.760 to pop his clogs and shuffle off, so they start civil wars while you're still alive.

01:13:37.940 Louis the Pious suffered from that a bit, although he was able to keep it in check just about.

01:13:42.940 He got deposed briefly at one point for a year, but came back. Anyway, long and short of it is,

01:13:48.200 after him, that giant Charlemagne's empire was broken up into bits. The three sons got three

01:13:55.240 different bits sort of france germany northern italy bits of spain modern day spain across the

01:14:00.740 pyrenees and um well well it's one of those things in history we still sort of live with echoes of

01:14:07.160 that to this day could argue that well i was gonna say you could argue that that's where

01:14:14.620 france and germany like the dividing line of that the one of the sons took france kind of

01:14:23.040 West Frankia

01:14:24.720 When the sons took sort of more Eastern Frankia 0.98

01:14:27.020 Germany, but those 0.58

01:14:28.880 Distinctions were much more ancient than that already

01:14:31.200 Much more ancient

01:14:32.880 If you read the campaigns of

01:14:35.080 Julius Caesar

01:14:35.800 In his own words, you can just buy a penguin

01:14:39.120 Paperback remarkably, do you think I talked all about that

01:14:41.100 On Epoch?

01:14:42.760 The Rhine is sort of

01:14:45.180 Quite an obvious

01:14:45.840 Demarcation line

01:14:49.400 Between France and Germany

01:14:50.680 At a certain point

01:14:52.000 anyway charlemagne's empire broke up after louis the pious lewis the pious and his sons

01:14:59.840 and we're still sort of living with it to this day in a sense in various ways

01:15:05.160 okay global church history's second factoid of the morning is that on this day in 955 otto the

01:15:15.340 Great defeated the Magyars at Letchfield, ending his westerly invasions, sorry, ending

01:15:22.140 their westerly invasions. Right, yeah, didn't we talk about Otto the Great briefly last 0.71

01:15:27.220 week? Was that one of Global Church History's factoids? I feel like it was. Anyway, Otto

01:15:33.880 the Great, right, one of the sort of fundamental, pivotal early German kings. And the Magyars,

01:15:40.840 They really were proper steppe people weren't they 1.00

01:15:43.000 They're like proper 1.00

01:15:44.320 From like the Ural mountains 0.99

01:15:46.300 They were like 1.00

01:15:50.120 Like Mongols 0.98

01:15:52.880 Before the Mongols 0.64

01:15:54.140 That sort of thing 0.99

01:15:55.740 Well

01:15:58.060 It's a story as old as time

01:15:59.740 As old as time steppe peoples 1.00

01:16:01.320 Coming screaming down 1.00

01:16:03.880 Out of central Asia 1.00

01:16:05.200 Into the Hungarian plain 0.98

01:16:08.040 Into the Balkans 0.96

01:16:09.140 Into modern day 0.97

01:16:10.700 What would be modern day 0.80

01:16:11.840 The Ukraine, Belarus, Poland

01:16:15.020 Yeah, that's happened over and over

01:16:19.200 And over and over and over and over again

01:16:20.420 The Magyars are just one of those

01:16:22.540 But Otto the Great 0.73

01:16:24.440 Stops them dead

01:16:25.500 Good 0.99

01:16:29.440 Okay, next one

01:16:31.420 St. Luke 91, Luke Street

01:16:34.400 Real name Luke Stewart

01:16:36.760 Says, g'day, oh yeah, g'day mate

01:16:38.740 How good 1.00

01:16:39.260 It says

01:16:39.840 Wondering if you're going to talk about

01:16:41.680 What's happening with the WNBA

01:16:44.460 Women's basketball

01:16:47.500 I don't know anything 0.55

01:16:48.120 I don't follow the WNBA whatsoever

01:16:49.340 Let's read on 0.63

01:16:50.480 What's happening with the WNBA

01:16:52.460 Because

01:16:53.040 Because I said

01:16:54.640 Is it supposed to be

01:16:57.040 Because it said

01:16:57.880 If you identify as a woman 0.77

01:16:59.700 You're a woman

01:17:00.720 So a retired NBA player 0.99

01:17:02.820 Has decided to do his own Diogenes

01:17:04.920 Ha ha ha ha

01:17:06.060 Gutted

01:17:08.180 Gutted

01:17:09.520 The NBA

01:17:10.820 Like really woke

01:17:11.780 And progressive

01:17:12.360 There you go

01:17:13.700 So if you identify

01:17:15.700 As a woman

01:17:16.060 You can be a woman 0.99

01:17:16.880 Alright we'll get 1.00

01:17:18.220 Magic Johnson in there

01:17:19.240 Out of retirement

01:17:19.940 Is he still alive

01:17:50.460 that would be funny i'd find that funny 1.00

01:17:54.520 these people get what they deserve if they say a man can compete in women's sports well

01:18:01.980 be prepared to be absolutely dominated then i'm afraid i thought trump had passed an executive

01:18:10.060 order banning such things i guess the nba much like banksy considered itself considers itself

01:18:46.180 them back to their countries they came from or better yet bring back the death penalty yeah

01:18:49.620 A fair few of them for the most heinous crimes 0.96

01:18:52.920 Just end them

01:18:53.940 Capital punishment 1.00

01:18:57.060 All the foreign criminals 1.00

01:18:59.020 Send them back to their countries of origin 1.00

01:19:00.440 Yeah, it's pretty straightforward, pretty easy stuff 0.99

01:19:02.400 If you had a moral compass and a spine

01:19:05.540 Our governments don't seem to have either of those things

01:19:09.920 Okay, Luke Stewart again says

01:19:11.400 Have these people ever looked at the history of the Weimar Republic? 0.91

01:19:16.480 This chaos that they want to create

01:19:20.120 Something going to end with a new painter

01:19:22.240 Well, I'd have to be very circumspect

01:19:27.480 Very careful with what I say 0.98

01:19:28.620 Because of T's and C's 0.93

01:19:29.860 But yeah, the Weimar Republic 0.94

01:19:31.720 The spectre of the Weimar Republic

01:19:33.580 For anyone who might not know

01:19:34.720 That's the German, largely socialist

01:19:38.020 Democratic socialist republic

01:19:39.660 Between the end of World War I

01:19:41.660 And the abolition of the Kaiser and the monarchy 0.87

01:19:44.560 And the start of Hitler's dictatorship 0.60

01:19:47.300 The Weimar Republic

01:19:48.520 And it was characterised in all sorts of ways

01:19:50.880 By decadence and subversion

01:19:54.980 In all sorts of ways

01:19:57.200 Luke Stewart has noticed

01:20:00.060 That

01:20:01.040 And the parallels with our world

01:20:03.640 Okay

01:20:04.320 Acidhelm says

01:20:06.860 Ordered Islander 6

01:20:08.600 And the light blue breakfast with bow mug

01:20:28.400 You can't get this one though

01:20:30.540 This is literally

01:20:31.660 Like a prototype 0.99

01:20:33.040 In fact you see that white

01:20:34.620 Line across the top there

01:20:36.000 That's just an error

01:20:37.600 Where they printed it

01:20:38.440 Slightly wrong

01:20:39.000 This one's

01:20:40.540 This one's a unique

01:20:41.680 prototype but but other ones like this a few different types like this you can totally

01:20:48.280 get them consider that if you want one i mean it's the best bug mug going isn't it it's the

01:20:53.580 best mug you could get acid helm says they bought an islander six yeah islander great magazine really

01:21:02.200 is this usually in fact always there'll be a few articles in there which are now you think i'm

01:21:08.100 saying this just to shield because it's no teachers but i genuinely think in every single

01:21:13.540 issue of irelander there's at least two or three articles in there which are superb of real value

01:21:23.220 it's not just trying to fill out the pages it'd be from someone brilliant like morgoth or whatever

01:21:27.860 with a really good insightful take penned wonderfully they're good the irelander magazines

01:21:33.700 all right and then you say happy birthday bow i think appreciate that

01:22:01.900 The next viewer, Luke again

01:22:03.920 Luke says, if you don't mind

01:22:06.080 I'll just read them sort of in one go effectively

01:22:07.800 You put, I thought it was to do with the pride flag

01:22:10.560 Or the Palestinian flag

01:22:11.960 Oh what, that Banksy thing

01:22:13.300 Maybe it is, I didn't think it was

01:22:15.920 Maybe it is, okay

01:22:16.900 If it is, I stand corrected

01:22:18.800 Always happy to stand corrected on anything factual

01:22:22.480 If I get the facts just straight up wrong

01:22:26.460 Happy to be corrected

01:22:27.440 Okay, next I said

01:22:28.600 I wouldn't say he's above the law 1.00

01:22:31.600 He's an agent of the law to push their libtard crap on the rest of us. 1.00

01:22:37.160 Yeah, I mean, that's accurate. 1.00

01:22:39.180 Can't disagree with you there, Luke.

01:22:40.600 Yep.

01:22:41.740 Yeah, that is what it is, isn't it?

01:22:44.280 It's exactly what it is.

01:22:46.200 All right, and then you say,

01:22:47.220 I get annoyed when they offer you a free trial,

01:22:50.320 but you have to enter payment,

01:22:52.320 and then they won't even let you cancel your free subscription

01:22:54.720 until they charge you.

01:22:55.880 Yeah, classic tricks like that, don't they?

01:22:58.060 Loads of companies do stuff like that.

01:22:59.460 This thing's free, just sign up here

01:23:02.500 Oh no, it's not free

01:23:04.420 Oh alright

01:23:05.020 Thanks

01:23:07.400 And it's going to be actually difficult 0.93

01:23:10.080 A bit of a pain in the arse to unsubscribe to it 0.92

01:23:12.380 You've made it deliberately unclear how to do that 0.95

01:23:15.920 Hmm

01:23:17.720 Yeah, that is annoying

01:23:19.740 Alright, Thictagious says

01:23:22.400 Reform have just demanded Charlie Downs be sacked from the party

01:23:27.080 if there's going to be uh if there's going to be a chance of a pact oh but demanding

01:23:31.800 ex-conservatives be sacked is beyond the pale yeah i saw that i saw that story break last night

01:23:37.360 now i've had no special intelligence any special input from deep inside the restore camp i don't

01:23:45.800 think that's happening it was not happening that's just clearly games this is fun and games at this

01:23:51.280 point, isn't it? You know, the original Restore Olive Branch wasn't in good faith, or I don't

01:23:56.920 think it was, or maybe it was a little bit on some level, but essentially not. I think

01:24:01.300 Rupert Lowe and his people knew that Nigel could not, would not accept it. So in that

01:24:07.420 sense, it's not, it's not in good faith effectively. I think that's just my take anyway. And then

01:24:16.040 so met in kind by this, this is politics, isn't it? It's just the back and forth, fun

01:24:19.480 and games fun games you can imagine them sitting around some sort of strategy uh meeting with

01:24:25.840 reform at reform it's like okay okay he's gonna play these games is he lobe one kenobi lobe one

01:24:35.580 kenobi old roops he's just played a bit of a he's a half decent chess move there what can we do we

01:24:41.440 can play that we can do the stuff like that if you want it how about we you can imagine this

01:24:46.840 throwing ideas around how about we just demand that he abandon someone he's never going to

01:24:52.400 abandon how about we do that should we do that we could do that couldn't we so you can play that

01:24:56.580 game um Charlie Downs let's demand that Rupert abandon Charlie Downs and throw him under the bus

01:25:06.540 which we know he won't do or almost certainly won't do let's just say that 0.96

01:25:11.020 you can totally imagine that's how it went or somebody way above nigel 0.67

01:25:20.900 somebody way above him rings up uh we've got we've got a we're playing the anti-semitic card 0.86

01:25:32.420 at the moment nigel yeah yeah that old that old chestnut we're trying to destroy some people on 0.92

01:25:40.560 anti-semitic grounds at the moment nige be a good guy and uh try and destroy charlie downs on that 0.87

01:25:49.280 yep you're gonna do it right yeah of course you are of course you are all right we'll be speaking

01:25:55.120 later click i just like yes sir of course i do exactly what i'm told yes sir all right

01:26:10.560 It won't happen. Charlie's not going anywhere, I don't believe.

01:26:16.320 Right. Luke Stewart again says,

01:26:18.600 I want to see a Count Bimface, if he wins, 1.00

01:26:24.440 have to deal with the grooming gang scandals, 1.00

01:26:28.460 or when you guys get another migrant attack,

01:26:30.400 like the guy who stabbed the three girls, or the one in Belfast.

01:26:33.560 Yeah, that is the thing with sort of a comedy MP.

01:26:39.280 If they were to ever win

01:26:40.640 Actually win a seat

01:26:41.800 It's all very well

01:26:43.960 It's two fingers up to the establishment

01:26:46.220 Although Camping Face is the establishment

01:26:47.880 In various ways isn't he

01:26:49.260 In various senses

01:26:50.920 Despite being a comedy candidate

01:26:55.320 He's backed up by the establishment

01:26:58.100 In loads of senses

01:26:59.160 Anyway

01:26:59.560 What if he win?

01:27:01.000 He won't

01:27:01.400 But what if he did win?

01:27:04.120 Then he's got to actually do the job

01:27:05.980 Of being a member

01:27:06.780 The Honourable Member of Parliament for Clacton

01:27:10.760 Yeah, what if there were a mass casualty event 0.99

01:27:14.400 An Islamist mass casualty event in Clacton 1.00

01:27:16.800 Can you still go out there with the bin thing on 0.98

01:27:19.980 And talking in a silly voice

01:27:21.500 There was a grooming gang scandal in Clacton 0.94

01:27:26.060 Still go out there with that costume on

01:27:28.640 Talk about intergalactic policy and stuff

01:27:31.120 If you noticed

01:27:36.560 When it first

01:27:37.580 When this story first dropped

01:27:39.960 That Nigel was going to call this by-election 1.00

01:27:43.780 And that Count Bimface was going to stand 1.00

01:27:46.120 It was probably going to be the main contender 1.00

01:27:49.260 Because the other main parties weren't going to stand

01:27:51.780 So the main protest vote against reformer Nigel

01:27:55.520 If you were so inclined 1.00

01:27:56.420 Would probably be Bimface 1.00

01:27:57.700 For the first day or two 1.00

01:28:00.620 i was talking about yeah you go bin face then i stopped doing that i stopped doing that

01:28:06.620 i sort of found out really who bin face really is and

01:28:15.460 yeah if you noticed i haven't been banging the bin face drum

01:28:21.420 anyway no i'm just gonna win it easily always was gonna so it's a little bit

01:28:28.640 moot, isn't it?

01:28:30.860 It's a little bit academic.

01:28:33.200 Alright, Fallon Firebird says

01:28:34.760 Not saying the Liverpool fans were totally

01:28:36.980 innocent. Drunk people do

01:28:38.760 drunk things, but the South Yorkshire

01:28:40.880 police are the exact same unit

01:28:42.740 guilty of allowing the cover-up of the rape gangs.

01:28:45.520 I mean, yeah, fair point, fair point.

01:28:47.500 Absolutely fair point.

01:28:51.100 It wasn't the police

01:28:52.540 pushing the wind out of the lungs

01:28:54.800 of the people at the front, though, was it?

01:28:56.320 but you make a fair point okay uk uh minichrist uk minichrist says with white british births

01:29:06.780 uh projected to fall below 50 around around the 2029 general election will this milestone be

01:29:13.200 enough to wake people up yeah i don't know i fear not dan tub did a good segment like a week or two

01:29:18.460 ago on the main podcast that i was on talking about how i think it was last month i think july

01:29:23.480 Where 2026, last month, was for the first time the statistics

01:29:27.160 Where the birth rate among white Brits, native Brits

01:29:30.020 Was less than 50% for the first time ever 0.89

01:29:32.600 Something like that

01:29:34.220 What does it take for people to, for normies to wake up

01:29:37.720 What does it take?

01:29:40.740 I mean a lot of them are

01:29:41.860 But what does it really take for them to start voting en masse

01:29:46.580 Start working together, pulling together

01:29:48.680 En masse to the tune of tens of millions

01:29:52.840 what will it take

01:29:55.080 okay the last one from Luke Stewart again

01:29:58.760 says

01:29:59.280 apparently former NBA players

01:30:02.480 Ennis Cantner

01:30:05.240 don't know who that is

01:30:06.180 Ennis Cantner Freedom

01:30:08.080 and Royce White

01:30:10.100 have stated

01:30:12.320 they are declaring for the 2027

01:30:14.140 and by the way

01:30:17.140 I hope you have a wonderful birthday

01:30:18.360 I thank you very much for the birthday sentiment

01:30:19.920 and I'm afraid I've not heard of these NBA players

01:30:22.820 I don't actually follow basketball hardly at all

01:30:24.700 In fact, I would say not at all

01:30:26.100 Yeah, that's one of the sports

01:30:28.060 I've followed quite a lot of different sports

01:30:29.640 On and off to varying degrees

01:30:31.320 But basketball, I don't

01:30:33.460 I've never heard of either of those guys

01:30:34.720 They might be really important, massive, super famous

01:30:36.960 But I don't

01:30:37.600 I've never really been interested in basketball

01:30:40.140 I don't know why

01:30:40.680 I love baseball

01:30:41.800 The Red Sox, I support the Red Sox

01:30:45.140 I quite like American football

01:30:46.480 I do quite like American football

01:30:49.280 For a few years

01:30:52.800 I followed American football

01:30:53.780 Quite closely

01:30:54.580 But basketball

01:30:55.440 And ice hockey

01:30:56.500 Basketball and ice hockey

01:30:58.000 That's not really my thing

01:30:59.400 But okay

01:31:01.160 Actual NBA players

01:31:02.420 Saying that they're going to play

01:31:03.820 In the WNBA 0.94

01:31:04.720 That'd be funny 1.00

01:31:05.440 That'd be funny

01:31:06.260 Alright that's the last Rumble rant

01:31:07.700 Let's look at our YouTube Super Chats

01:31:09.280 Oh there's loads of them

01:32:28.000 That doesn't mean

01:32:29.860 Anything to me

01:32:45.680 A string of letters

01:32:46.360 that don't make anything

01:32:46.940 but now I realise

01:32:47.480 the last word was

01:32:48.540 happy

01:32:49.040 spelt backwards

01:36:30.060 Yeah, it was good

01:36:31.860 It was one of the good first early breakfast shows

01:36:35.240 Which wasn't just normal news

01:36:36.760 Very, very serious news reading

01:36:38.220 Paper shuffling news

01:36:40.380 The Big Breakfast

01:36:41.360 You know, with 0.99

01:36:49.220 And then they had

01:36:50.480 Well anyway

01:36:52.400 The Big Breakfast 0.99

01:36:54.340 If you're not of a certain age and British 1.00

01:36:56.400 You won't know what that is

01:36:58.340 With some vital statistics

01:37:00.900 You're talking about like

01:37:01.880 They had Denise Van Outen on there for quite a while didn't they 0.82

01:37:04.820 Who's easy on the eye 0.81

01:37:06.880 Shall we say

01:37:37.980 Alright

01:37:40.340 Pardon me

01:37:42.760 David Betts 1180 says

01:37:45.400 um so will it be easier to unsubscribe from bbc i guess so i don't know if you mean the actual

01:37:53.360 bbc or breakfast with bow i mean you don't have to subscribe for this this isn't behind the paywall

01:37:58.200 or anything is it but the actual bbc i don't know probably yeah hopefully it's really easy

01:38:04.640 really easy to not pay your bbc license legitimately it's honestly and i'm a total

01:38:11.700 boomer not in my actual age but in terms of being technically able i'm like really quite bad

01:38:21.220 like if it's if it's not really really obvious what you're supposed to click on on the internet

01:38:26.740 i'll just bugger it up and get it wrong but that is really you go to the bbc website and there's

01:38:31.780 like honestly without exaggeration it's like two clicks three clicks and it directs you there

01:38:38.820 perfectly easily where you go and all you have to do is type in your postcode and then there'll be

01:38:43.940 a drop down for your actual address click on your address and then you just click i don't want to

01:38:48.900 i don't want to pay this i'm not going to watch the bbc then you have to not watch the bbc

01:38:57.620 but it's honestly it's honestly two or three clicks super easy

01:39:00.580 All right

01:39:03.840 MQSSSS says

01:39:06.860 Let's revive the Nuremberg Trials 2.0 in The Hague

01:39:11.940 There are too many people in positions of power

01:39:14.400 Who are causing harm to the Western world

01:39:16.180 Yeah, a lot of these people need to be held to account for their crimes

01:39:20.060 That's one of the things Restore has talked about

01:39:22.760 Rupert has talked about

01:39:25.180 Some of the people that have caused terrible damage

01:39:30.100 To our country

01:39:30.780 Not just Britain

01:39:31.320 But also the whole

01:39:31.920 Western world

01:39:32.360 Need to be held

01:39:33.540 To account for their crimes

01:39:34.700 A lot of the Prime Ministers

01:39:35.920 And their home secretaries

01:39:37.200 People like Preeti Patel

01:39:38.860 And Suela Braverman

01:39:39.780 And James Cleverley

01:39:40.780 A lot of people like that

01:39:42.160 Yeah

01:39:42.620 Boris

01:39:45.380 Tony Blair

01:39:46.700 Held to account

01:39:48.240 For their crimes

01:39:49.040 Against the people

01:39:49.800 And the nation

01:39:50.440 Crimes

01:39:51.380 Crimes on an

01:39:54.100 Unprecedented scale

01:39:55.340 Yeah

01:39:56.320 A reckoning

01:39:58.420 With what they've done

01:39:59.680 tatum2733 says what's the latest date you'd be willing to time travel and be byzantine empire

01:40:09.680 emperor 1341 756 476 600s chad 1453 no you said you you'd run then lol yeah i don't want to be

01:40:21.160 the emperor of byzantium in 1453 yeah pass can i pass i can okay i'll pass on that then

01:40:29.680 Oh, the Byzantine Empire, I've got some good content with Furus Pertinax, Marcus, okay,

01:40:36.600 INAJ agriculturalist about Byzantium, got more than one bit about the Fourth Crusade,

01:40:44.480 which sees the burning and sacking of Constantinople.

01:40:48.380 I've got a number of bits of content about Byzantine Empire.

01:40:51.020 Wasn't one of the golden age

01:40:56.120 I'd say

01:40:56.440 Wasn't one of the golden ages

01:40:57.560 After

01:40:58.020 Basil

01:41:01.320 Basil the great

01:41:02.180 Basil

01:41:02.460 After Basil the second

01:41:04.340 That was sort of a golden age

01:41:06.000 Wasn't it

01:41:06.400 Just after that

01:41:07.740 What is that then

01:41:08.560 Is that the 11th century

01:41:09.780 Directly after Basil

01:41:14.640 The great

01:41:15.180 I'd say

01:41:16.420 Okay

01:41:17.720 James Leapheavenhall again says

01:41:20.040 Sir Jason Ardy

01:41:21.760 It's been an odd day's night

01:41:25.220 Like night as in

01:41:26.720 With a K 0.99

01:41:27.540 Like he's been knighted

01:41:28.740 Sir Jason Ardy

01:41:29.880 But there's that Beatles song

01:41:31.220 It's been a hard day's night

01:41:32.720 It's been an odd day's night

01:41:34.620 He's here all week people

01:41:36.780 Max Robe says

01:41:39.400 Claxton for the Frisians

01:41:41.460 Oh yeah

01:41:41.960 He always jokes about

01:41:43.400 Wherever it is in the world

01:41:45.060 For the Frisians

01:41:46.320 Okay thanks Max Robe

01:41:50.680 erwin romulus super fan of the show thank you for chiming in here appreciate it

01:41:54.120 you say um i don't think blackouts would work these days after the warning everyone would just

01:42:00.040 start charging laptops phones tablets and power banks and spike the grid anyway

01:42:05.080 oh maybe it's fair point uh i mean four devices like that maybe but if you've got got an electric

01:42:11.320 oven can you do that is there any sort of power pack for like your fridge you know to an extent

01:42:20.120 you're probably right but i don't know if it would i don't know if exactly it would work out

01:42:24.680 like that it's an interesting point though interesting point there was a power cut in

01:42:29.320 swindon we've had more than one in the last 18 months two years i don't usually last very long

01:42:34.280 though sometimes just a few minutes sometimes an hour or two there was one about six months ago it

01:42:39.160 It was quite a while. It was most of the day. It was most of the afternoon.

01:42:42.020 It was sort of a solid four or five hours power cut across all the swings,

01:42:45.340 or a big chunk of swings, anyway.

01:42:47.780 The thing I noticed most, obviously, other than nearly everything,

01:42:51.460 you realise, oh, God, I need power for that.

01:42:53.000 It's like my phone's dead, my laptop's dead, or, well, at least I'll make a cup of tea.

01:42:56.460 Oh, no, the kettle's dead, of course.

01:42:58.920 The thing that really sort of struck home to me, and it's obvious when you say it,

01:43:03.120 but it's like, oh, my freezer is melting.

01:43:06.860 It's defrosting on its own, of course.

01:43:09.160 Even my fridge is dead

01:43:10.500 Oh, oh yeah

01:43:11.440 So all the food in there is going to

01:43:13.900 Or some of it is going to be ruined

01:43:15.540 Or whatever, yeah

01:43:16.660 When you have power cuts that last a while

01:43:19.440 You realise how dependent we are on power

01:43:22.000 Crazily dependent on it

01:43:25.180 We had to go back to an age

01:43:28.740 Where there wasn't any power

01:43:29.800 Even the mid-19th century really

01:43:32.980 Early 19th century at least

01:43:34.220 A world where when the sun goes down

01:43:37.220 The world goes dark

01:43:38.240 and if you haven't got a fire or candles you're in you're plunged into darkness now until the sun

01:43:43.200 comes up that sort of world think about it think about it okay still there's still another dozen

01:43:57.080 or more 20 or more to go okay let's get through asie0161 says i misclicked on that banksy poll

01:44:03.420 It's not art

01:44:05.320 Exclamation mark

01:44:05.840 Exclamation mark

01:44:06.340 Fair enough

01:44:07.120 I know a few people

01:44:08.160 Nearly every day

01:44:08.720 I see people say

01:44:09.540 In the chat

01:44:10.440 Oh I clicked the wrong thing

01:44:11.780 On the poll

01:44:12.180 Oops

01:44:12.520 I meant to do it

01:44:14.040 I meant to do the other one

01:44:14.920 Don't worry about it

01:44:16.820 It's all good

01:44:17.540 It's all fair

01:44:20.060 No harm no foul

01:44:22.100 Psychohobo again says

01:44:23.740 We need to find these

01:44:24.940 Headquarters of the elites

01:44:26.860 You actually know who they are

01:44:32.220 Don't we

01:44:58.440 And Reform would know that

01:45:00.440 It's a tit for tat, isn't it?

01:45:14.940 Fun and games man

01:45:17.640 Right

01:45:29.560 The real population

01:45:30.540 Of Great Britain

01:45:31.120 don't look at the consensus it won't be accurate look at what someone like Tesco's or Sainsbury's

01:45:37.580 says how much toilet paper they sell for example you can extrapolate out from that

01:45:43.740 how many tins of baked beans they sell can extrapolate out from that sort of kind of

01:45:48.740 it will be a more accurate number than the census lots of people just don't reply to the census

01:45:54.600 the census simply doesn't apply to them 1.00

01:46:01.360 because they're here living illegally 1.00

01:46:03.120 why would they 1.00

01:46:03.820 they wouldn't even get the paperwork in the mail

01:46:07.180 in the first place

01:46:07.980 let alone be able to respond to it

01:46:09.520 if you want an accurate estimation of the population
