The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters - Breakfast With Beau ｜ Monday 12th October 2026

00:00:00.640 Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to Breakfast with Beau, today featuring me, Carl, not Beau, because, and this is going to be really difficult for a lot of people to accept, but it is the truth of the matter, and really we need to confront this difficulty head on.

00:00:17.700 but my friends we are being oppressed by the british government

00:00:21.480 specifically the statutory instrument of the working time regulations in 1998

00:00:29.800 that compels me to give beau exactly 5.6 weeks of paid holiday a year i i'm sorry i just

00:00:41.920 i feel like some sort of ayn rand character is a man not entitled to the sweat of his employees

00:00:48.520 brows what is going on how is it i'm forced to not only give him holiday and a minimum wage

00:00:56.360 but now i have to do his job for him because the british government has got their boot on my neck

00:01:01.420 this is not long is it you know before 1998 there were literally no statutory requirements

00:01:08.900 you had no no guaranteed holiday pay uh under british law which i think is interesting

00:01:14.960 i think it's an achievable goal for us to get back there again

00:01:18.140 good morning everyone i had to get up at six o'clock this morning

00:01:26.220 i don't normally get up at six o'clock in the morning i had to drive to work listening to

00:01:31.940 nick ferrari complaining about people complaining that they're being taxed to the hilt

00:01:37.200 uh as you can see you i don't know can you see on the eye paper there operation save zelinski

00:01:42.300 that's one of the things that they're uh they're talking about in the papers today because um

00:01:48.020 trump has has made a bit of a rod for his own back on a bunch of things so um having a live war

00:01:54.840 in ukraine against russia isn't ideal right you don't want as the president of america you don't

00:02:02.100 want that to be the case and of course trump ran on well i'm going to get a deal with president

00:02:06.060 putin because we're both like strong men personalities we understand one another and

00:02:10.760 we'll get it sorted of course he hasn't got it sorted and then israel was like yeah we're also

00:02:15.780 going to drag you into a sort of proxy conflict with iran on the other side and that's not ideal

00:02:23.920 either and so now diesel supplies are really squeezed because a bunch of like literal star

00:02:33.560 wars um what the what the ones the the star wars sample what were the the sam people the houthis

00:02:41.240 right the the literal star wars like you know desert people uh are attacking saudi arabian

00:02:48.720 oil production and so oil prices are being completely squeezed so now trump has had to

00:02:55.360 go to Putin and say listen I shouldn't be asking this it's not ideal but I need a bit of diesel

00:03:05.880 and Putin's like essentially like jab at the hut in this circumstance because he sat on a

00:03:14.860 gargantuan country full of raw natural resources and a population that can't properly use them but

00:03:19.760 can sell them to us so we can properly use them um so it is not brilliant for anyone involved

00:03:27.840 frankly uh this isn't something you would design if you had the choice uh but here we are we're in

00:03:33.700 the position where everything is going to i mean and we we apparently only have like a day or two

00:03:38.440 supply of diesel for the country by the way it's it's uh i mean it's exactly the kind of thing

00:03:45.280 you'd expect from the kind of governments that we've had for the last 30 odd years right like

00:03:51.280 no no sense of national coherency no sense of a plan for britain for any period of time beyond

00:03:58.580 what is on my desk this morning and no sense of taking care of a nation to steward it to hand it

00:04:07.180 down to future generations obviously obviously we don't do any of these things and so this is

00:04:13.640 going to be essentially the focus of what I'm talking about this morning, because it's every

00:04:19.620 day. It's the same problem every goddamn day. But before we go on, if you're watching on YouTube, 0.99

00:04:25.860 which I can see in the chat, a lot of you are, right? Guys, I have to beat them. I have to beat

00:04:33.460 everyone else, because I'm the boss, right? And the way that my company works, it's a ruthless

00:04:39.300 meritocracy, right? So basically I need you to click the like button and by the

00:04:45.380 end of this week I have to have the most likes right on each day.

00:04:49.620 I think tomorrow's Dan,

00:04:50.620 I think the day after Luca and I've probably got that wrong.

00:04:52.740 But the point is right you have to click like or else they have just grounds to

00:04:58.740 overthrow me as the director of my own company and I don't want that to happen.

00:05:03.540 Right?

00:05:04.060 So I need you to click like right now on the stream in order to make sure that

00:05:08.580 we've got a massive spike that they can't, a plateau they can't get to, right? We need so

00:05:14.340 many likes on the stream that they can't just overthrow me from my own company. I'm not used

00:05:21.440 to getting up at six in the morning, right? I'll be perfectly honest with you. Normally,

00:05:25.000 I get up at eight in the morning. Of course, normally I'm woken up about 7.15 or something

00:05:29.440 like that because my kids are running around making noise and arguing, right? But theoretically,

00:05:33.700 on paper my alarm goes eight I get into work about nine and then I'm on the podcast we're doing

00:05:40.820 whatever I'm doing right so this getting up at six uh is not normal for me um which is why I

00:05:46.940 look so tired I mean there's other reasons um but uh but anyway point being right I can't afford

00:05:53.980 to be relegated doing the daily show the breakfast show every day right I can't afford it if Bo gets

00:05:59.920 more likes than me on his streams, or anyone else gets more likes, then they get to get

00:06:04.140 up at 8 o'clock in the morning and get in for 9. And I have to get up at 6 in the morning

00:06:08.060 every day, so you've got to click likes. I can't do this. I cannot do this. This is

00:06:11.860 unsustainable for me, okay?

00:06:17.360 Anyway, right. So, right, let's go through the papers. Let's talk about what Fleet Street

00:06:23.000 wants us to know.

00:06:23.920 you're looking forward to the budget i'm not looking forward to the budget

00:06:31.560 i mean i say that right but in a way i kind of am looking forward to the budget

00:06:37.040 because it's not like you don't know pain is coming you know pain is coming you know it's

00:06:41.460 going to get worse right everything is getting worse and you know what's really weird right

00:06:46.900 and this is going to sound very strange

00:06:50.040 but I kind of miss the raw charisma

00:06:54.200 of Rachel Reeves

00:06:55.180 I mean look at John Healy

00:06:58.360 not only is he insanely boring

00:07:01.820 he's not mimetic in any way shape or form

00:07:03.960 like Rachel Reeves

00:07:05.400 as boring as she was 1.00

00:07:07.640 and as nasally voiced as she was 1.00

00:07:09.380 was at least like a kind of 1.00

00:07:12.680 totemic figure

00:07:14.140 for Starmer's regime

00:07:16.120 for the sort of like the nasally North London lawyer set who's this John Healy guy who cares

00:07:22.000 who's this guy he's a nobody he's boring he's not even he's not even hateable right and this

00:07:29.680 was the thing about Starmer Andy Burnham I'm starting to kind of resent Andy Burnham as 0.95

00:07:34.080 Prime Minister just because it's just like oh the twee Norvina act okay great Andy I enjoyed 0.96

00:07:41.280 Keir Starmer because Keir Starmer represented a true authentic villain and as someone who deals

00:07:47.280 with the papers every day man I miss having a proper villain in charge you know I mean like

00:07:52.020 it's it's just not the same it's not the same it doesn't hit the same and I don't get the same sort

00:07:56.520 of enjoyment out of talking about this now that we don't have proper villains in charge and we 1.00

00:08:01.720 don't even they're not good guys either obviously they're they're retarded the soft left are just 0.98

00:08:06.960 so stupid and we are just in such trouble but they're not hateable andy burnham isn't a guy 0.99

00:08:14.560 who clearly hates everyone around him or he hates his own constituents whereas keir starmer had a 1.00

00:08:20.360 genuine seething resentment for the proles and that's fun like it's okay you know at least he's

00:08:27.180 prepared to play the heel at least we know where we stand right okay we've got an evil tyrant in 0.71

00:08:32.320 charge. Andy Burnham is going to have to act like an evil tyrant, but he's not going to enjoy acting

00:08:37.100 like an evil tyrant. Whereas Keir Starman was clearly getting a kick out of it. So it's like,

00:08:40.360 okay, we've got a Sauron to overthrow. This is great. You know, this, this dynamic puts a bit of

00:08:45.960 verve into life, right? We can at least, we've got a proper enemy to fight. Not now, not now. Now it's

00:08:52.260 just really boring. And now everyone's just like, Andy, Andy, I mean, you know, you are literally

00:08:56.780 like a David Brent figure actually, which is embarrassing, but like everyone's, everyone's,

00:09:01.740 it's going to come to everyone just sitting going Andy you just you don't know what you're doing

00:09:06.060 you don't know what you're doing you you're messing everything up right and he's going to

00:09:10.060 continue messing everything up until eventually we get a general election and then chaos and I'm

00:09:17.580 I'm tired man I just want an insane right wing I was going to say dictatorship I don't want

00:09:24.140 dictatorship i just i just want the final victory of the right to get on with it right because it's

00:09:31.920 it's evident that it's going to have to happen and we'll talk about why it's going to have to

00:09:35.160 happen in fact because it's it it can't be that like when kemi bay knocks like you know what

00:09:41.380 all of my enemies are to my right i will have none of it i will never have a pact with any

00:09:45.540 of those people who debate whether my scottish yoruba children are even english it's like okay

00:09:50.340 chemi committing fully to the lib demization of her own party right she's like yep no you know

00:09:58.400 i've lost the struggle with the right i can't argue with them i can't persuade them what am

00:10:02.320 i going to do you know that we're in an era of anti-immigration and i'm an immigrant in charge

00:10:06.360 of the right-wing party the conservatives i can't win on those grounds nigel farage can easily beat

00:10:12.460 me and rupert lowe can easily beat nigel farage so what am i doing here no i'm going to pivot 0.54

00:10:16.720 it to the Liberal Democrats and say, listen Lib Dems, don't you want a domineering mummy figure

00:10:25.480 to be in charge of the country? Think of Margaret Thatcher. And so that's her pitch. So okay, well 1.00

00:10:32.520 that's the Conservatives have honestly kind of graciously stepped off of the right, right? They're

00:10:38.460 like, yeah, no, we're stepping to the left. We don't need, we don't need to be involved in

00:10:42.460 right-wing politics. Right-wing politics isn't for us. So we're leaving the right to its own

00:10:50.080 devices, which is great. So now we have defeated the Conservatives on those grounds. So now it's

00:10:55.300 just reform. And reform, struggling away on about 22% on average in the polls, are not doing

00:11:01.040 brilliantly either. So on the plus side, the ground is becoming more and more clear for the

00:11:08.440 rights and i don't know whether you can see but this is my restore britain pin i'm a member of

00:11:11.940 restore britain i think you should be too uh we keep getting 10 percent and there was one there's

00:11:16.940 10.7 percent in a recent by-election which for a party that is what eight months old that's

00:11:22.740 incredible that's genuinely incredible and you can tell that it's incredible because the reform

00:11:28.780 talking heads are squealing all over social media oh you're splitting the vote so listen 0.99

00:11:34.720 listen listen look at me look at me you little bitch it's not your vote i'm not voting for you 0.99

00:11:43.100 it is not your vote don't give me this splitting the vote stuff if people didn't put their tick 1.00

00:11:48.200 in your box it's not your bloody vote and if you didn't earn it because you're a bunch of feckless 0.99

00:11:54.400 losers not my problem is it not my problem it's your problem but think of the country it's not 0.99

00:11:59.800 your vote you are acting like these your votes they're not your votes right you didn't earn them 0.99

00:12:04.820 and you didn't earn them because your party has a history of being run by obviously frauds con men 0.92

00:12:10.860 and generally feckless turncoats i'm not interested in voting for frauds con men and feckless turncoats 0.84

00:12:16.840 okay i'm just not interested in that nobody thinks that nigel farage is going to be the responsible 0.62

00:12:22.080 grandfather grandfatherly figure that is going to fix this country nobody thinks that that's why 0.77

00:12:27.580 he's not in the head in the balls initially it looked like he might be that guy and then he kept 0.92

00:12:31.820 stepping on rakes because of his own hubris and ego and arrogance and he decided no wait i'm the 0.97

00:12:37.700 right in britain aren't i i'm everything to everyone and it turned out that he wasn't i can

00:12:43.620 just that's that guy gone that's that guy gone rupert low that's that guy gone oh wait what's

00:12:50.060 this horrible monster that's growing to my right it's you weren't in control of everything actually

00:12:55.440 nigel i don't need to speak to the right wing the online right wing ecosphere i don't need to make 0.85

00:13:02.200 sure that i've got all my ducks in a row in these ways no i don't need any of this like yes you did 0.94

00:13:07.440 moron and so now no sympathy for me right and i'm not saying that it's the reform members or the 0.93

00:13:13.580 reform voters fault or anything like that it's none of their fault i totally understand why 0.94

00:13:17.780 they're voting for farage and why they're voting for reform i totally understand why they've

00:13:21.380 Abandon the Conservatives, as the rest of us, of course, have.

00:13:24.940 Totally understand it.

00:13:27.340 It's Nigel's fault.

00:13:28.860 He's the one who's made all of these problems.

00:13:31.580 And Rupert did ask him,

00:13:33.420 do you want some sort of pact or alliance or something like that?

00:13:36.980 And Nigel said, no.

00:13:37.960 Just like with Kemi and you, no.

00:13:39.360 You are beyond the pale. 0.97

00:13:40.300 That evil Charlie Downs.

00:13:42.840 How dare you want this guy who wants a future for his own country?

00:13:48.760 Can't have it. 0.98

00:13:49.580 we've got boomer pensions to pay for right because i tell you what you are going to get a farage wave

00:13:54.600 you absolutely are going to get a farage wave and it's because of this right it's because of this

00:13:59.340 that you're going to get the farage wave so as you can see tax rise is needed oh jesus christ

00:14:04.920 is there anything left to tax serious question like is i mean there's nothing that's not tax

00:14:12.380 right everything is tax and tax and tax it's like right how much can we tax right that's the just

00:14:18.800 how much? And the answer is, well, there's no particular limit, apparently. It's until we just

00:14:24.740 can't afford to pay. But the thing is, we can't afford this anyway. We can't afford this anyway,

00:14:29.220 right? £35 billion gap, according to the Institute for Fiscal Studies, is coming up in the next

00:14:36.600 budget. Now, you remember that we had a £22 billion black hole that Starmer and Rachel Reeves

00:14:43.120 like yeah so we need to raise 44 billion pounds like do you though do you do you need to raise

00:14:50.640 44 billion pounds to plug a 22 billion pound black hole i get the feeling you've got a lot

00:14:57.080 of ridiculous spending in mind which of course they did right so now we're looking at 35 billion

00:15:03.520 gap so if we're judging that based on labor's current track record of only the past two years

00:15:09.140 that 70 billion they're going to want to raise

00:15:12.520 so that we can piss away this money

00:15:15.720 in other places in the world.

00:15:16.860 So I'm just going to give you some numbers now, right?

00:15:18.760 I'm going to give you some numbers

00:15:19.880 about the current UK budget.

00:15:23.580 It's brutal.

00:15:24.680 It's absolutely brutal.

00:15:27.740 You are going to cry into your cornflakes

00:15:31.080 and you will realize, just like me,

00:15:33.420 being oppressed by the uh 1998 statutory minimum requirement that i have to give as holiday to my

00:15:41.600 employees you are also being oppressed but you're being oppressed by the bottom one percent of

00:15:47.600 society i'm not even joking when you're paying your taxes man i've got to pay an unbelievable 0.55

00:15:56.480 amount of taxes this year and i hate it i hate it come january my accountant has already been like

00:16:01.780 yeah, this is going to be rough.

00:16:02.980 And I'm like, oh God, God mighty, right?

00:16:08.940 So not only am I being oppressed by workers' rights, 1.00

00:16:14.340 I'm also being oppressed by immigrants 1.00

00:16:16.760 and benefits scroungers. 1.00

00:16:19.780 And it makes me wonder why do I even bother?

00:16:21.360 It really does, right?

00:16:22.600 So the UK spends every year

00:16:27.660 353 billion pounds on welfare.

00:16:31.780 That's the GDP of many countries.

00:16:34.960 How many countries is that?

00:16:36.880 I'm just going to look that up.

00:16:39.020 How many countries have a GDP less than 350 billion?

00:16:47.620 I bet it's a lot.

00:16:49.140 I bet it's a lot of bloody countries. 0.99

00:16:53.380 Oh, my God. 0.97

00:16:54.560 It is...

00:16:57.640 It's most countries in the world.

00:17:01.780 I can't be right.

00:17:09.440 I must be misreading that.

00:17:11.740 Ah, Jesus Christ.

00:17:13.440 Okay.

00:17:14.600 So actually, it's in dollars.

00:17:15.960 So we'll round it up to about $480 billion a year.

00:17:26.040 Which is the entire GDP of Romania.

00:17:28.200 or south africa it's all more than hong kong the czech republic egypt chile pakistan

00:17:36.020 we spend more than the entire gdp of pakistan on benefits right portugal peru nigeria portugal's

00:17:44.100 380 kazakhstan finland algeria greece iran new zealand like iran is 300 what that can't be right

00:17:58.200 apparently it is i just i mean britain just fyi our economy in total is 4.2 trillion

00:18:07.720 which is a lot a lot but when you get like most countries are nowhere near this and so out of

00:18:18.440 how many countries are there 291 countries on this wikipedia article right out of those

00:18:26.560 our benefits budget is greater than the gdp of about 150 of them

00:18:37.920 so all i'm saying is this might not be a sustainable state of affairs right this might

00:18:47.860 not be something we can do forever it might be that actually we're going to have to think about

00:18:54.880 the benefit settlement in this country can we just keep giving out billions and billions and

00:19:00.980 billions of pounds as wages are flatlining as taxes are rising as rich people are leaving the

00:19:08.160 country because remember we lose 10 000 millionaires a year in this country as well

00:19:11.660 and of course for anyone who's wondering it's the top 10 percent pay something like 70 percent of

00:19:17.260 taxes so actually we kind of need those people to pay the benefit budget so just saying Andy

00:19:25.700 Burnham John Healy you soft left prats you are I realize you're not the guys right I realize you're

00:19:33.300 not the guys who are going to come along and say well tough times for folks tough times we've got

00:19:39.080 to balance these books somehow because we're the labor government you're not those guys right I

00:19:44.280 i appreciate you're not those guys you're not going to be balancing the budget i understand

00:19:48.400 but could you please not ruin the bloody country in the couple of years that you have left

00:19:55.060 after snaking keir starmer because again i i'm i'm kind of a a starmer right at this point you

00:20:01.260 know i i would prefer keir starmer because he was at least prepared to say no to his left right

00:20:06.300 andy burnham's entire entire pitches i'll say yes to the left and that's that's bad for the greens

00:20:13.040 Don't get me wrong.

00:20:13.780 Bad for the Lib Dems a bit as well.

00:20:16.380 But it's not good for the country.

00:20:18.120 It's not good.

00:20:19.020 I love Andy Burnham's, oh, as well.

00:20:23.880 You know what?

00:20:24.580 It was so good before Margaret Thatcher.

00:20:27.400 Yeah, that's when Britain was at its best.

00:20:30.080 Yeah, we had a massive economic crisis.

00:20:33.500 Yes, we had to go to the IMF for a bailout.

00:20:35.900 Yes, we had three-day working weeks.

00:20:38.640 Intermittent blackouts, rubbish piling up in the roads,

00:20:40.800 and strikes everywhere so nothing worked. 0.75

00:20:42.700 good god that was when britain was at its best and then that evil margaret thatcher

00:20:47.860 came along busted the unions got things going again put people back to work cut taxes

00:20:54.960 deregulated industry so it could grow as and i'm i'm not even i'm not even a thatcherite

00:21:00.700 it's just it's quite clear that if you're in that kind of position that's the only way to

00:21:05.100 get out of it and so it's just like look he's got this weird anachronistic nostalgic longing

00:21:11.100 for a britain that turned my dad into a conservative voter for 30 years it's just like no i can't we

00:21:19.380 can't have a country run like this and he was just like yeah but couldn't the government just

00:21:23.520 be everything to everyone it's like i don't want it to be i don't want the government i i want ajp

00:21:29.300 taylor's britain i want it so that the only interaction i have for the government is when

00:21:34.300 i go to the post office okay that's all i want that's all i want out of life we had it that was

00:21:40.060 what the country used to be and I want to return to it that's all I want and to about 1997 so I

00:21:46.680 didn't have to give my employees holiday so anyway right the benefits right this is just crazy right

00:21:56.240 because every year we run an average budget deficit therefore we have to borrow 134 billion

00:22:04.800 pounds just to be clear we get the list of right so every year we borrow the equivalent of the

00:22:13.760 entire economy of the dominican republic or puerto rico or ecuador or guatemala right every year we

00:22:21.420 borrow the the entire amount of money their country makes to pay for benefits is any wonder

00:22:27.600 they're coming here right is any wonder that people all around the world like oman's gross

00:22:32.440 domestic product is only 117 billion can we not just buy oman can we not just buy we could just

00:22:38.760 buy the empire back couldn't we if we're spending this amount of money why would why couldn't we

00:22:44.800 just i mean we don't even need to use the military force we haven't got an army anymore because

00:22:48.700 we're paying benefits but we could just buy these countries couldn't we could we just run them as if

00:22:55.860 there were businesses, couldn't we just extract tax from them? Keep the expenses low and raise

00:23:04.020 taxes and have that come to Britain? Couldn't we do this? Anyway, the point being, we're

00:23:08.980 buggered, right? We're in a serious position that is never going to get any better while

00:23:15.220 we're in the current state of benefits that we pay. Half of this is, of course, the pensioners.

00:23:23.240 and honestly if there was if there was going to be anyone who's going to go after the triple lock

00:23:28.220 yeah it should be labor because pensions don't vote labor they vote conservative reform because

00:23:32.800 they're well aware the labor party is a party of foreigners and students and so of course you know

00:23:38.420 they're going to come for the pension so yeah getting rid of the triple lock it's got to be

00:23:41.560 done this has got to be done we can't afford it we can't afford anything people don't understand

00:23:46.400 that actually the benefits bill in britain should cap out about 200 billion right if that's if we

00:23:51.140 were actually working with what we could afford it would be 200 billion not 353 billion it's just

00:23:59.420 what do you say like the state pensions and other pensioner benefits 170 billion a year

00:24:05.720 so

00:24:07.680 universal credit 98 billion a year

00:24:14.200 disability benefits 50 billion that's something that's been coming up at the end this morning

00:24:21.140 child benefit, 13.7 billion, and then just 21.8 on other benefits, just other, just other.

00:24:29.860 That's according to the Office of Budget Responsibility, of course.

00:24:35.580 And you wonder why everything feels like it costs the earth.

00:24:40.080 And it's, it's, it's, we've got a 35 billion pound gap. No, we don't. No, we don't have a 35 billion pound gap.

00:24:46.600 we've got 134 billion pound gap and you have actually discovered that that is actually 170

00:24:52.840 billion 169 billion pound gap actually so it's it's just we're just going to borrow a guatemala

00:25:01.200 every year and how much do we spend servicing this debt it's about 90 billion a year i think it was

00:25:08.420 let me uh let me just check that just to make sure i'm not yeah 92 billion pounds

00:25:18.920 a million pounds yeah no no jesus it is billions oh god right yeah so every year

00:25:25.060 we spend 92 billion pounds

00:25:29.780 servicing the debt that we have borrowed just so you know to put that into

00:25:38.400 context that is about six billion pounds more uh sorry not more uh it that is um about

00:25:49.120 the entire national gross domestic product of ethiopia every year or ghana or oman or croatia

00:25:59.360 that we spend servicing the debt we have with whoever it is the bond markets and whoever else

00:26:06.240 is sending lending us money that's what we spend just making sure we that's paying the interest

00:26:12.400 on the money that we've borrowed and they're like yeah by the way you've got 35 billion pound no no

00:26:18.180 no no no no it's way worse than that way way worse than that every everything is worse than that

00:26:24.680 everything is worse than everything you they are just not being straight with the rich public

00:26:29.700 at all and so we're in a position now where we're just continually screwed and try not to swear on

00:26:38.320 both you try and keep it family friendly uh and so yeah need 35 extra billion it's like no we need

00:26:45.080 way more than that but we're not getting it so anyway good morning hope you're enjoying your

00:26:51.440 breakfast uh if you're on your drive to work it might be a bit maddening it's bloody maddening

00:26:58.020 every day for me i drive in listening to like either bbc radio 4 and nick ferrari and by the

00:27:03.440 end of it i'm just i'm just steaming just angry to get into work i was like morning i'm like 0.51

00:27:08.680 you don't have bloody holiday entitlements do you

00:27:13.540 anyway let's go on to the daily telegraph the torygraph this is uh of course the the the

00:27:27.040 the actual voice of the conservative party right this is the conservative party's own newspaper

00:27:34.800 so putin breaks trump's ceasefire well i mean you know trump's like i need all that diesel bro

00:27:41.900 and everyone everyone's angry everyone's angry about it like all of this in america all the

00:27:47.660 democrats are furious and to be honest with you you should have just said no to nanyahu just said

00:27:53.380 no we started a war that's your problem what what did you start a war for did you not think we had

00:27:58.360 enough problems but oh yeah what are you gonna do and healy faces the hole in the budget as we've

00:28:03.900 just covered what else have we got will young on simon cowell god that seems important let's see

00:28:09.560 why that's got column inches oh yeah the houthis yeah so at the moment basically the houthis are

00:28:17.860 like Iran's last trump card. The last proper remote organization that Iran has apparently. 0.89

00:28:28.460 Apparently things have completely collapsed in Syria, basically because we gave Syria to ISIS. 0.88

00:28:32.540 For anyone who's wondering, it's our jihadi terrorist. Things have gone poorly for Iran's

00:28:41.060 proxies in uh Lebanon and Syria uh Iran obviously under siege at the moment in many ways and so the

00:28:51.200 Houthis the literal sand people from Star Wars someone in the chat remind me what they were

00:28:55.860 called uh just attacking random things in Saudi Arabia now they've been attacking Saudi airports 0.64

00:29:02.020 in fact uh a dozen people killed I think it was um and so it's like right okay great so you've got

00:29:08.120 you know them like waving their sticks around

00:29:10.420 because they're getting you know munitions and whatnot from iran

00:29:16.600 so okay great great sam people wars i don't care i don't i don't why why why are we why are we

00:29:25.200 getting dragged into all of this well because we use oil because we're not uh not using the north

00:29:29.460 sea as we should be i mean interesting how andy burnham the the soft left type had to row

00:29:35.080 roe environmentalism back he did say in his speech the other day yeah we are going to have to drill

00:29:41.480 the north sea we are going to have to say yeah norway is norway's drilling our oil norway has

00:29:47.540 four million five million people we should be declaring war on norway and conquering them and

00:29:53.040 taking their sovereign wealth fund so i can laugh at arch when i do a stream with him

00:29:57.480 where's your sovereign wealth fund now basically like do you remember that episode of the simpsons

00:30:04.140 where they just drilled in from the side,

00:30:05.720 someone else's oil field. 0.77

00:30:06.660 That's what Norway's doing to our oil field, right? 0.60

00:30:09.480 You understand? 0.94

00:30:10.140 It's not like we've still got enough of a navy 1.00

00:30:12.180 that we can ban and prevent the Norwegians 1.00

00:30:14.180 from getting anywhere in the North Sea. 1.00

00:30:17.180 Like, just listen, it's been a thousand years,

00:30:21.040 but you did this to us back in the day, right?

00:30:23.640 This is like the Viking conquest in reverse.

00:30:26.500 We've got all sorts of justifications.

00:30:28.060 We have long memories.

00:30:29.100 So do the Norwegians.

00:30:30.500 Like, I went to Norway last year,

00:30:32.360 and the Norwegians

00:30:34.440 apparently did nothing

00:30:35.420 interestingly

00:30:36.060 in the intervening

00:30:37.000 thousand years

00:30:37.580 by the way

00:30:38.020 this is all like

00:30:39.000 Viking stuff

00:30:39.740 and then modernity

00:30:41.140 like what happened here

00:30:42.460 nothing

00:30:42.920 nothing

00:30:43.900 absolutely nothing

00:30:46.440 did

00:30:46.800 it was just

00:30:47.580 relax

00:30:48.080 just chill

00:30:48.700 on the ill-gotten

00:30:50.920 loot of England

00:30:51.500 probably

00:30:52.100 anyway right

00:30:56.720 Berlin should buy 0.74

00:30:58.760 steak in a third runway

00:30:59.780 is that the Heathrow runway

00:31:00.800 literally

00:31:02.320 the lettering is too small for me to read um so uh anyway and oh yeah Nigel Farage has pledged to

00:31:07.900 ban asylum for five years I mean yes what the the thing that we should do is just scrap the entire

00:31:19.640 asylum system scrap it all right any asylum we choose to give should be at our discretion 1.00

00:31:27.300 it should just be you know we think like for example the asylees that i thought were legitimate 0.78

00:31:33.760 with the ukrainian women and children right yes there's an actual hot war where russia has invaded

00:31:39.960 and there are you know hundreds of thousands of women and children who are now homeless and 0.50

00:31:44.620 displaced yes we could take some of those actually they are genuine asylum seekers from a culture

00:31:50.840 that is at least vaguely understandable and comprehensible to western europeans they are

00:31:56.440 christians so and they are you know fans of the west they they want to be like the west which is

00:32:03.420 why putin's busy invading so it makes sense that we could be like yeah no we will take a couple

00:32:09.280 hundred thousand ukrainian women and children because we are a kind compassionate country 1.00

00:32:13.480 i don't want to take random third worlders who are men who have broken into the country 1.00

00:32:20.860 and whom the government is like yeah they've raped almost every woman who was on the boats 1.00

00:32:24.780 going across with them and we need to give them pamphlets to say please don't rape anyone else

00:32:29.620 because it seems that the government is actually just committed to bringing in rapists into the

00:32:34.140 country and the reason they're committed to this is because we have uh this archaic and

00:32:39.700 genuinely archaic series of 20th century laws that give them a legal method to claim asylum

00:32:47.300 as in we have to do it we're legally bound to do it it's like no no what would you mean legally

00:32:51.960 bound by some foreigners claiming our money no no no what are we doing now i don't want legal

00:32:58.520 bindings on us from foreigners claiming our money i realize that world war ii is awful and this is

00:33:04.060 all set up in the wake of that but obviously this can be exploited by anyone anywhere in the world

00:33:08.200 and is and weirdly it's being exploited by rapists i don't actually want to give rapists a method of

00:33:16.520 exploiting us so actually let's just nix all of that turns out that that was a nice thought in

00:33:21.940 principle but it's not going to work in practice there are apparently too many rapists in the world

00:33:26.100 who are literally prepared to risk their lives to rape in this country and we will just

00:33:30.900 give out asylum when we think it's appropriate as in we're not like blind we know what's going on

00:33:39.200 in the world oh there's a war in russia okay that's bad do we want to help the ukrainians 0.88

00:33:43.400 yeah yeah okay what we can do well we could take a bunch of refugees yeah okay so i mean like if

00:33:47.320 there was a war between america and canada we could take a bunch of canadians and then we could

00:33:51.880 make sure that the signs are in hindi um but we can you know we can we can decide on an ad hoc

00:33:58.020 discretionary basis who we think we should be giving asylum to right uh rather than just being

00:34:03.780 no you have to accept every rapist on earth if they get about a mile across the english channel

00:34:10.420 no no i don't i don't think that's a workable system i think that's a disgraceful system 0.91

00:34:16.000 and I think that's ridiculous and I I don't want to have to pay for it and I 0.97

00:34:21.240 don't want these people just roaming around my country being able to rape 0.98

00:34:24.640 anyone who they want to here this is terrible anyway let's uh let's go to the 0.55

00:34:29.960 Guardian heaps subsidy to be heat pump subsidy to be cuts to fund the

00:34:34.840 defense plan well I mean it's typical labor isn't it you know I bet the heat

00:34:40.440 pump subsidy was designed to help pensioners and so they're like yeah we need defense plan

00:34:48.220 no it's the one thing they'll they'll never do though the one thing they'll never cut 0.81

00:34:52.960 is the money we give to foreigners they love it they love giving money to foreigners

00:34:57.240 this is just the the purpose of the british state at this point is to import as many foreigners as 0.95

00:35:02.680 possible doesn't matter how bad they are and give them our money that's the point of it that's human 0.81

00:35:07.720 rights that's equality that's social justice right that's what they think genuinely that's

00:35:14.040 how they conceive all this oh well the poor oppressed rapists who are breaking in need

00:35:19.760 your tax money so you know i don't i don't know if they do and even if they did not terribly

00:35:26.980 inclined to give it not terribly inclined it's not the most persuasive deal that's ever been

00:35:32.840 put on my table, right? It's like, listen, you give us your money. We'll give you hundreds

00:35:38.200 of thousands of rapists. What am I doing with these rapists? Am I putting them to work in 0.94

00:35:43.160 the mines or something? Oh, are they working the North Sea oil rigs? Are they? Are we opening

00:35:48.280 the coal mines again? No, we're going to put them in hotels or HMOs and then let them loose 1.00

00:35:54.260 on the sleepy villages of England. Okay, well, what do I get out of this? What's in the deal

00:36:01.420 for me? Well, some of the women in your life might get raped. Excuse me, British government? 1.00

00:36:12.340 I mean, obviously it's been a while since I've read any political theory about the

00:36:17.680 purpose and justification and nature of the state, but isn't that what the state's meant

00:36:23.360 to prevent? Isn't the British state meant, and the legitimacy of any state fundamentally rests

00:36:29.480 on it will prevent foreign men from raping your women seriously literally the argument is protect 0.65

00:36:38.600 your property and just to be clear my wife and daughters are my property they belong to me and

00:36:46.160 i belong to them not one-sided it's reciprocal i am their father or their husband and they are my 0.98

00:36:52.480 wife and my daughters and i don't want them getting raped by foreign men so why would i want 0.86

00:37:00.040 this deal of importing foreign rapists so human rights lawyers can get paid and feel good about 0.98

00:37:06.640 themselves not a great argument not a great argument anyway uh i don't know anything about

00:37:12.840 the heat pump subsidy but we need to fund the defense plan which is crazy since we're being

00:37:17.040 invaded every single day like defense plan for what that the problem seems to be well within our

00:37:23.980 own borders at this point it seems like the government should be thinking about raising 0.98

00:37:28.440 militias to drive out the foreign rapists but they're the ones bringing them in what are we 0.99

00:37:33.600 going to do anyway um there was a there was a thing about manchester united uh no not manchester

00:37:41.040 man manchester city in liverpool that i got to hear about in the car this morning it's not on

00:37:45.240 the times um i'm not a football guy right but my son my older son really likes football so i'm

00:37:52.080 driving him to school this morning and he's explaining to me how he's a liverpool supporter

00:37:55.560 i'm like son you've never been to liverpool you've never been anywhere near liverpool

00:38:00.540 we don't live near liverpool we live in wiltshire why do you support liverpool he's like i just do

00:38:08.180 they're cool okay all right liverpool the cool cool football club but manchester city

00:38:14.740 have recently been embroiled in this vast scandal of slush money being put under the table to fund

00:38:22.580 the the the coach and the players and whatnot and they just absolutely trounced liverpool

00:38:29.200 3-0 in a in a match last night and he was telling me about this i was like well that's bad news i'm

00:38:36.320 afraid son well no it's bad news for manchester city right because people will tolerate a certain

00:38:41.460 amount of corruption if they feel that it isn't um in a way oppressing them directly affecting them

00:38:50.640 but when the the team that is being hugely corrupt is absolutely crushing what is being portrayed as

00:38:58.720 the good football team liverpool then then there's going to be health pay right like manchester city

00:39:05.980 He might have wanted to rein it back a little bit.

00:39:08.260 We're 1-0 up.

00:39:09.200 All right, don't go too hard, guys.

00:39:10.880 You know, don't go too hard.

00:39:12.040 But anyway, that was another thing that happened this morning.

00:39:15.800 So let's get back to the benefits bill.

00:39:19.560 God.

00:39:21.400 There's one thing I love talking about. 0.96

00:39:22.860 It's the f***ing benefits. 0.92

00:39:26.640 And the thing is, I probably wouldn't care so much 0.96

00:39:30.260 if I didn't work all the time. 0.99

00:39:33.640 I work all the goddamn time. 0.97

00:39:35.980 so almost two million people on sickness benefits may not qualify oh really oh really what a shock 0.97

00:39:42.700 and they have this uh big hoo-ha for the last couple of days about you know what i think

00:39:49.940 there are a bunch of people with autism or adhd or whatever you know some

00:39:55.800 like mental health problem that might not actually have this mental health problem

00:40:04.420 that might just be claiming personal independence payments,

00:40:08.640 which is, again, another form of benefit that you get to pay for.

00:40:11.780 Because the system incentivizes people to just say,

00:40:15.880 oh, yeah, I've got autism, I've got ADHD, give me some free money.

00:40:19.260 I need a motability car.

00:40:20.460 They give away brand new cars on the motability scheme.

00:40:24.640 This is actually, it's mad.

00:40:26.760 It's the most open and exploitable system that could be constructed.

00:40:32.040 You couldn't construct a system that was easier to abuse.

00:40:35.340 And so they're like, I think there might be two million people

00:40:38.120 on sickness benefits who don't qualify.

00:40:40.340 Is that, really?

00:40:41.680 Wasn't it something like a quarter of the country is disabled at this point? 0.69

00:40:45.340 It's claiming some sort of disabled benefits. 0.78

00:40:48.400 I don't see all the war wounded walking around on crutches everywhere.

00:40:53.120 Did we lose a war?

00:40:55.060 How has an entire generation been rendered disabled?

00:40:58.300 How's this happened? 0.93

00:40:58.940 Well, it's because they're not disabled. 0.97

00:41:00.200 it's because you've got a system that's easy to abuse and incentivizes people to just 0.96

00:41:04.700 get the free money and then you've brought in populations who are like why wouldn't you claim

00:41:10.920 this money but they don't have any shame about claiming money they don't they think it was wrong

00:41:15.500 if you don't claim the money and so it's like right okay well i mean this this can't go on

00:41:21.240 forever because we literally can't afford it so you would think that just tightening up this if

00:41:26.680 wanted to save 35 billion well i mean that that would be a good start right that would be a really

00:41:31.880 really good start because um what's disability benefits that's 50 billion a year well yeah if

00:41:40.280 a bunch of people on these benefits are not actually disabled and shouldn't be claiming it

00:41:46.600 well then you could save a few bob there couldn't you

00:41:49.160 so let's get to the bond markets now i as a professional economist know all about the bond

00:41:59.140 markets and i don't know anything about the bond markets really but i understand that andy burnham

00:42:03.940 doesn't want to be in hock to them and i suppose at some point in the near future he won't be

00:42:08.360 right because there's going to come a time when the bond market's like we're not going to lend

00:42:12.540 you any money we're not going to do it no we actually don't think that we're getting this

00:42:17.040 money back because I mean you're already spending 97 billion or whatever it was 93 billion a year

00:42:22.480 servicing the debt and it looks like you might not be able to continue doing that forever

00:42:26.940 right so maybe we won't lend you money that we won't get back and so they bring up the the specter

00:42:33.360 of Liz Truss poor old Liz Truss right I I genuinely think at this point Liz Truss should be something

00:42:40.840 that the Labour Party should be generally embarrassed to mention right oh god Liz Truss

00:42:46.260 Yes, when the bond markets, the yield was at 4.8, when it spiked under Liz Truss,

00:42:52.360 yeah, that was terrible.

00:42:54.000 It's currently 5.95.

00:42:57.380 It's way worse.

00:42:59.900 It's 20% worse than it was under Liz Truss.

00:43:04.860 And yet, Labour are just like, I mean, I saw a post on their Twitter the other day about

00:43:11.740 Liz Truss, and it's just like, aren't you guys embarrassed to say it, given how it's

00:43:16.060 way worse now than it was under her aren't you guys embarrassed and of course what this means

00:43:22.000 is that when we borrow money which we're going to to the tune of apparently 170 odd billion

00:43:27.840 not 135 billion because we're 35 billion down then the the costs on that are going to go up

00:43:34.860 so the the amount of money the 92 billion or whatever it was um 92 billion we spend a year

00:43:41.860 servicing that that's going to go up and that's just money we are literally just putting in a big

00:43:46.440 pile and setting fire to remember and that's literally just a bonfire of taxpayer money

00:43:51.600 i mean the idea of having a deficit is just awful i hate it so much like it

00:44:00.240 i probably can't say that uh all i'm saying is any politician

00:44:08.680 who gets the country into debt should essentially be ruined perhaps flogged something terrible

00:44:15.720 right something genuinely terrible should happen to a politician who borrows money on the public

00:44:20.880 purse like i completely respect the american founders and their attitude on this which is

00:44:25.660 of course don't you know obviously we don't um but no we've we've got an iceberg ahead of course

00:44:33.120 because the financial markets are like right yeah i mean when andy burnham came into power

00:44:36.980 the financial markets were like oh god like this is the guy who who thinks we're who thinks the 1.00

00:44:42.920 bond markets are enslaving the british government it's like no andy you you actual idiot right you 0.99

00:44:48.780 actual prat right they're lending you money that's what they're doing they're lending us money 0.99

00:44:53.860 and you're like yeah we shouldn't be in hock to the bond markets like well then we should we've

00:44:58.240 really got to cut that benefits bill and that's what it's going to come down to you have to slice

00:45:02.260 something like 200 billion off the benefits bill and says you're not going to do that 0.98

00:45:06.660 maybe the bond markets are actually your friend that keeps this whole stupid thing up in the air 0.65

00:45:13.000 anyway we'll uh we'll carry on oh oh oh well i mean definitely i love this as well oh 0.94

00:45:22.760 andy burnham insane anti-brexit activist and what i love about this i can't do a northern accent

00:45:29.500 uh i'm andy burnham i'm i'm your friend working class northerners and i love i love that he was

00:45:36.020 like i'm not going to run in a diverse constituency right i'm i i i don't i don't recognize race or

00:45:43.360 ethnicity but i just happened to choose a 97 white english constituency to secure my seat in i just

00:45:52.940 just happened to choose that that was just just random chance right but anyway doesn't see any of

00:45:58.540 that. He's like, look, listen, Northerners, I know that you voted disproportionately for

00:46:07.340 Brexit. But actually, I don't care. I don't care what you vote for. So vote for me. I'm

00:46:13.220 going to make Labour for us. And then I'm going to get back in the EU because that's

00:46:17.340 what you voted for, isn't it? Russia played a role in Brexit. Okay. Whatever role Russia

00:46:23.560 played in brexit it's gonna be infinitesimally small compared to the we hate being in the 0.85

00:46:29.460 european union right it's gonna be infinitesimally small and moreover do you not think that germany

00:46:34.400 and france played a massive role in brexit like do you think that there was no foreign meddling

00:46:39.300 there you think i mean you guys were willingly being meddled with by germany and france and so

00:46:44.940 this whole like oh russia russia russia i don't care i think you're way overstating what the

00:46:49.580 russians are capable of and i don't care at all i don't care about what the russians do it's not my

00:46:55.500 not my problem not my business i just want my country to be independent i just want it to be 0.78

00:47:00.080 sovereign you freak you absolute like power bottom like i'm sick of this i want to be dominated by

00:47:08.340 the eu daddy no i don't want to be dominated by any of them i just want britain to be its own 0.85

00:47:13.820 country. That's all I'm asking for. I don't think it's too much. India protests. Cockroaches

00:47:22.760 remain defied. I have no idea what that's about. Imagine how strong the cockroaches

00:47:37.160 in India must be. Uh, anyway, um, this is amusing as well. The, um, the state of things 1.00

00:47:47.740 that Trump has got himself into means that now he has to make sure that the Ukrainians

00:47:52.760 don't keep attacking Russian oil refineries because America needs that oil. And it's just,

00:47:59.060 okay, everyone's got themselves tied in knots. And of course the Saudis are getting it. And 1.00

00:48:04.180 So this is just a general, um, general waste of everyone's time.

00:48:09.220 Really? So it's a real shame that we have to suffer through this.

00:48:13.340 And of course this is why all prices through the roof. Anyway,

00:48:17.640 let's get to the real important story. Let's see.

00:48:20.100 Can we see the poll on this one, please? Jack, we have a poll in the chat.

00:48:28.900 Can I see the poll complete? Right. Oh my God. Okay.

00:48:33.020 So, what appears to be an autistic man jumped into a tiger enclosure at Yorkshire

00:48:42.920 Wildlife Park. And the tiger, the video went viral, and we saw the video the other

00:48:48.620 day, and he was pointing his finger and lecturing the tiger, and the tiger was

00:48:52.280 just like, what am I supposed to do here? But afterwards, the tiger mauled him

00:48:57.740 some more and the man died of his injuries tragically now i'm i'm it's got i'm sure i 0.95

00:49:05.700 don't have any information about this but the guy look he was doing like this kind of autistic

00:49:09.560 motions like the sort of people have you know actual problems in this regard um and i don't

00:49:18.700 know why he jumped into the tiger enclosure or anything like that and he died of his injuries

00:49:22.160 And so the zoo have said, well, we're not going to euthanize the tiger.

00:49:28.780 And so our poll today was, well, should the tiger be euthanized?

00:49:32.240 And 88% said no.

00:49:34.320 But 12% said yes.

00:49:36.700 It's like, well, it's tragic that the tiger killed this guy.

00:49:42.180 But it's like, if a man fell into heavy machinery and died falling into heavy machinery,

00:49:47.840 why would I dismantle and break the machinery?

00:49:52.160 but it's not the machinery's fault a guy fell in there in the same way that it's not the tiger's

00:49:57.280 fault that a guy came in the enclosure and the tiger acted like a tiger um so i i don't think

00:50:04.000 the tiger did anything wrong obviously um like you know obviously a tiger killing you is not good

00:50:10.100 it's a bad thing to happen but it's an animal it's a wild animal in fact it is one of the wildest

00:50:17.920 and most dangerous beasts in the world i've seen videos of tigers taking out bears man like tigers

00:50:24.720 uh cats generally cats are like phenomenal feet of nature right cats are probably the peak of

00:50:32.080 evolution they are unbelievably fast unbelievably strong unbelievably durable unbelievably

00:50:38.160 agile and athletic they've got incredible natural weapons

00:50:42.320 there they've got incredible senses they are they are leagues ahead of almost every other animal

00:50:47.920 cats as a species are just like nature they're some of the most perfect animals to have ever

00:50:55.140 existed um and tigers being the largest of the cats that currently exist um are just phenomenal

00:51:02.880 they're just amazing beasts they can do phenomenal things uh personally though i think the leopard

00:51:08.580 probably is the if i was going to power game it i'd probably go right i don't need to be maximally

00:51:13.580 strong i like incredible agility as well you see a leopard pulling like an impala up a tree

00:51:19.180 you see the muscles bunching its shoulders and arms it's like god man these things are

00:51:24.340 unbelievably powerful and they've got great claws they've got teeth they're naturally equipped right

00:51:28.780 they're the best of the animals cats whether you like it or not frankly um but anyway the tiger did

00:51:35.220 nothing wrong the tiger did nothing wrong it's just being a tiger it can't help it and

00:51:41.640 why did you jump into its enclosure why is it possible for someone to jump into its enclosure

00:51:46.960 like you would think it would be not possible to just climb over the fence like there'd be

00:51:52.660 barbed wire at the top or something um and then jump in i guess he can i guess this is what

00:51:59.100 happened and i find right okay so i'm i'm gonna take issue with the daily mirror yeah and their

00:52:06.160 characterization of a woman who desperately tried to pull him back from climbing into the pen

00:52:11.480 right is that hero now i realize this is going to be an unpopular thing right i'm not criticizing

00:52:17.780 the woman at all she did exactly the right thing try and stop him from jumping into the tiger pen

00:52:22.160 right but i'm not sure that's necessarily heroic because it doesn't put her in danger

00:52:27.400 and it's just what a normal person would do in that situation you see a guy who's like

00:52:34.280 bro bro what are you doing what are you doing stop it obviously you can't climb into the pen

00:52:38.520 of the tiger um so i i don't think i characterized her here i'm sure she wouldn't characterize

00:52:43.400 herself as a hero it would have been heroic if like a guy jumped in there and like distracted

00:52:49.860 the tiger or something but can you imagine that that from the tiger's perspective

00:52:55.180 a guy just jumped into your enclosure what okay i guess i'd bite him a bit and he's pointing the

00:53:01.960 finger he's like well okay i don't know what's going on and then some other guy jumps in the

00:53:06.100 enclosure like what kind of what is happening here like i was just gonna lounge around all day

00:53:12.920 and other humans are invading my enclosure what am i supposed to do about this um but anyway

00:53:18.020 obviously she didn't jump in uh but the point is i don't think the tiger did anything wrong

00:53:21.960 obviously uh i don't think it'd be fair to euthanize the tiger and it's a tragedy that a

00:53:26.780 man who probably had some sort of cognitive impairments or something jumped in and who

00:53:32.620 knows what he thought he was doing. But it's not the zoo's fault, it's not the

00:53:37.240 tiger's fault. He made a series of choices that were really bad choices.

00:53:42.720 Unfortunately these sorts of things happen, don't they? And, oh, 40 years of

00:53:47.940 the Independent. Oh, brilliant. Another thing as well, migrant gangs are scamming

00:53:53.740 people outside of Parliament. Of course they are. 1.00

00:53:57.740 An express probe found honest pedicab riders on Westminster Bridge 0.98

00:54:03.820 being bullied out of the market by an organized group from Romania.

00:54:12.340 Romanian scam artists bullying pedicab drivers in Westminster. 0.90

00:54:21.000 State of the country, honestly. 0.75

00:54:22.700 All right, so what's the BBC saying?

00:54:28.460 Deloitte helped in falsifying documents to evade tax on Abramovich's wealth.

00:54:35.020 Okay, backdebted paperwork also made the Russian oligarchs' yachts and mansions disappear from

00:54:40.300 accounts. Really, I can't believe the Russian oligarchs were corrupt. Shocking. Breaking news 0.69

00:54:46.140 from the BBC. Rejecting closer EU ties would be a dereliction of duty, says Andy Burnham,

00:54:55.340 the midwit who somehow is in charge of the country i i people complain about kemi baynog man but 0.98

00:55:03.820 she's clearly integrated brilliantly because she's a moron as well but it's it's it's like 1.00

00:55:08.300 a law of nature we're not allowed to have sensible intelligent and competent people 0.99

00:55:13.020 running the country we're not like they're not even allowed to be politicians and they're certainly

00:55:17.420 not allowed to be in charge and so adi burnham is sat there fighting battles that were lost for

00:55:22.460 labor 45 years ago, wondering why things aren't getting any better. Anyway, what else have they

00:55:32.420 got? Yeah, Riyadh. Yeah, there we go. 11 injured, sorry. One killed in Houthi strikes. Blah, blah,

00:55:38.600 blah. Okay, let's move on. What's ITV saying? Zelensky says Russia struck power plant after

00:55:46.800 trump's energy ceasefire claim well yeah what am i supposed to do about that

00:55:52.760 uh this is like how's it clear how's it clear andy it's just the same conspiracy theory over

00:56:01.300 and over and over and again it's it feels like i'm trapped in groundhog day in british politics

00:56:05.480 doesn't it but yeah now we need to revisit 1979 when margaret thatcher and the labor government

00:56:13.600 we're having an argument over taxes and unions oh jesus christ is that where we need to go is

00:56:21.600 that really what the conflict of the future is going to be about margaret thatcher just

00:56:27.040 um i'm not a fan of margaret thatcher i don't care about margaret thatcher

00:56:30.360 anyway what's sky saying 20 000 pound bags of crystal meth join kurdish forces battles smuggler

00:56:40.160 gangs. Well, I mean, we've got our own battles with smuggler gangs, don't we? I kind of noticed

00:56:44.460 that they look serious about dealing with their smugglers, whereas we're not, obviously.

00:56:49.880 We've got people smugglers breaking into the country every day. Gangs of rapists breaking

00:56:54.980 into the country. We're not serious about it at all. At all. Same old stories there,

00:57:03.080 that boris blast trump putin deal well boris scuppered a peace deal in 2022 2023 i think it

00:57:13.040 was boris did everything he could everything that was in his power as the prime minister at the time

00:57:18.320 to prevent peace in ukraine so yeah i'm sure he'd be angry about it xpm calls on royal navy to

00:57:27.000 intercept russia's diesel and says u.s bankroll slaughter how are the navy going to do that we've

00:57:34.040 got like 15 ships and half of them are in dry dock how are they going to do that

00:57:39.740 the express though i realize where the clicks are it's the royal family we need to we need to get

00:57:50.580 the royal family clicks oh there's megan markle i tell you what man hate clicks on megan markle

00:57:57.580 are a big industry and the daily express is like you know what we're missing out on all this

00:58:03.080 tuscan raiders thank you that's what the youth is the tuscan raiders um yeah the the hate clicks 0.99

00:58:10.300 for megan markle man don't get me wrong she is insufferable i completely understand why everyone 1.00

00:58:15.160 but uh i just don't don't find her that interesting somali serial rapist

00:58:22.760 wins lawsuit against nhs over ramadan medication route

00:58:28.600 human rights apply to criminals anyone didn't know human rights are when the state interfaces

00:58:38.520 with an individual that's when human rights when the state has to use executive power against an

00:58:46.280 individual is when human rights matter which is why human rights only apply to criminals

00:58:51.980 that's when the state has to use force against a person an individual and so the only the only

00:58:59.000 consideration for human rights ever in the mind of state agents and actors is when they're dealing

00:59:06.740 with criminals and so that's why they are unbelievably kind and generous and forthcoming

00:59:13.400 with criminals and they don't care at all about you a human rights lawyer never deals with someone

00:59:20.720 who works hard follows the law pays their taxes does everything they should do that's that's 0.91

00:59:27.860 nothing to do with human rights they don't they don't see you even exist but the somali

00:59:34.840 serial rapist well the state now has to take as a duty to take action against that man 0.62

00:59:41.320 and that means as a duty to enforce his human rights so this is why human rights only apply

00:59:48.920 to rapists murderers criminals people who break into the country they only apply and because

00:59:55.620 foreigners are a disproportionate amount of crime in this country that's why it seems that human 0.91

01:00:02.560 rights are primarily for foreigners that's the reason it's the way the system works it's the way 1.00

01:00:08.920 the system was set up to work by the way it was designed to work this way if you didn't know which 0.95

01:00:14.780 i'm sure you didn't uh which i'm sure you did sorry uh anyway asylum center residents arrested

01:00:22.220 for rape and sex attack on child with locals scared to go out and cop patrol stepped up

01:00:26.480 why are they there because of their human rights why do they have human rights because the state

01:00:33.340 had to do something about them the local residents have human rights no you don't have human rights

01:00:40.220 not to have sex attacks on you it's only when the state has to do something to you that you get

01:00:47.280 human rights and so the rapists as as they always are just apparently it's just i mean this and 0.96

01:00:54.860 again not my statement shibana mahoud yes they've raped every woman who comes across

01:00:59.940 andy burnham yes we're going to give them the anti-rape pamphlet 0.57

01:01:02.800 job done here lads thank you very much mr burnham oh no actually i guess they didn't read the pamphlet

01:01:11.020 did they andy they just you just decided yeah i was going to stick them in a local area and then 0.87

01:01:17.200 oh what a what a shock residents plural raped and sex attacked a child locals are scared to go out 0.92

01:01:23.800 well the locals should think about i can't say that obviously uh the locals should consider why 0.94

01:01:31.040 they don't have human rights right you don't have a human right not to be raped by whoever this was

01:01:35.820 like somalians or eritreans or whoever it was right third world man you don't have a human 0.91

01:01:40.040 right not to be raped by them as far as the government's concerned they don't care they 0.99

01:01:45.940 will never think about you in these terms they are concerned only with the human rights of the rapists

01:01:50.940 which is why they're in your community in the first place it's just the way this works

01:01:55.760 anyway should we uh should we go to on this day in history oh what a great day 0.81

01:02:03.960 so uh the army of cyrus the great of persia takes babylon um i think the babylonians deserved it

01:02:14.220 frankly what do you think chat click like on this video if you think the babylonians deserved it

01:02:20.940 they were having this festival. 0.96

01:02:24.980 I think it was like a Marduk New Year festival or something.

01:02:28.060 And they were all drunk.

01:02:30.900 And so, I think, did he divert the Tigris to the Euphrates?

01:02:35.340 I think it's Euphrates' son.

01:02:37.020 Did he divert the river?

01:02:39.680 And then, because Babylon was a city that spans the river.

01:02:43.140 I think they may have diverted the river and then snuck in.

01:02:45.980 It's been a while since I've read about Cyrus the Great taking Babylon. 0.98

01:02:49.200 um but uh i think they deserve it to complete right because the babylonians the reason that 0.99

01:02:55.400 babylon had an empire at this period anyway is because 100 years earlier they'd betrayed the

01:02:59.700 assyrians because the the at the time the king of babylon was an assyrian appointment

01:03:04.740 and the medes and the persians were attacking assyria because the assyrians been bullying them

01:03:11.780 for a thousand years and instead of sending their forces up to support the assyrians

01:03:17.600 as they were supposed to i can't remember the guy's name but the uh the king of babylon

01:03:24.340 decided no i'm going to join with the persians and the medes and and destroy the assyrian heartland

01:03:29.640 so and as a as an assyrian partisan i've got no sympathy for the babylonians at all and frankly 0.85

01:03:36.680 i think it was silly that sahadon decided to feel guilty about the destruction of his his dad's

01:03:43.840 destruction of babylon and should have just left it raised just sorry no the babylonians 0.99

01:03:49.420 had this cultural power that they don't really deserve i think i know they probably did deserve 1.00

01:03:55.960 it um but uh but they they constantly me me me me we're gonna revolt we're gonna revolt we're

01:04:01.260 gonna revolt and from the assyrian perspective you can just be like again whack you know i'm 0.98

01:04:06.560 just gonna scour this as Sennacherib did um and I think completely justified so when the Babylonians 1.00

01:04:15.640 stabbed the Assyrians in the back I mean the Assyrians had destroyed Babylon like three times 0.99

01:04:20.060 at least twice actually and rebuilt it afterwards so I can kind of see from the Babylonian perspective 0.98

01:04:26.900 like well actually we're not the biggest fans of the Assyrians you know um anyway the Babylonians

01:04:33.200 basically inherited the Assyrian Empire after they stabbed Assyria in the back. And they had 0.96

01:04:39.760 this empire for probably about 80 years, something like that, before Cyrus the Great was like, 1.00

01:04:44.520 you guys suck. And they did. The Babylonians were not imperialists, right? They sucked at 1.00

01:04:50.780 imperialism. Cyrus the Great didn't suck at imperialism. And he took Babylon because he 0.99

01:04:56.060 was better than them. Cyrus the Great, the Persians would never have a leader nearly as 0.97

01:05:01.360 good as cyrus the great ever again right and what i like about cyrus he's a really really charming

01:05:06.600 figure right he he comes across as if he himself was actually a pretty reasonable and personable

01:05:13.040 guy okay this i always i always like these characters from history because throughout

01:05:18.760 history right there are so many characters who come who shine out of the page at you uh as being

01:05:25.100 ruthless brutal or callous i mean genghis khan is one of them right like genghis khan's advisors

01:05:34.160 had to persuade him don't just genocide everyone in china you can extract taxes from them like 0.71

01:05:39.300 cattle and he was like oh okay fine we won't just kill everyone in china then we won't just turn the

01:05:45.020 entire country into pasture land for our horses we'll we'll extract technology and money out of

01:05:49.720 them instead right gangsta merciless absolutely merciless cyrus is not that way cyrus comes a lot

01:05:57.460 comes across as a really chill guy he comes across really friendly he's he's a great great commander

01:06:03.400 great warrior great leader but he also just comes across as just being really nice yeah yeah i'm

01:06:09.040 i'm i'm leading a great army and we're going to conquer this but then we conquer this it's kind

01:06:14.700 of like liberation into the persian empire because i mean like we're going to be nice to you we're

01:06:18.600 not going to persecute you we're not just going to loot you i mean they loot a few places but

01:06:21.980 they're not just going to enslave you all and we're not even going to interfere with your 0.60

01:06:26.120 religion we don't care about your religion keep your religion you know the the the hebrews the 0.99

01:06:29.980 the jewish elite in babylon then go home we don't care about those which is why cyrus gets such a 0.98

01:06:33.940 great write-up in the bible by the way um and the tomb of cyrus is a lovely thing it still exists 1.00

01:06:41.460 right and there's an inscription on it and it's not even very big or ostentatious because remember

01:06:45.880 the Persian Empire was the largest empire that had ever existed to that point, right? Stretched 0.85

01:06:50.800 from Macedonia through to Egypt and then across right the way to India, right? It's the largest 1.00

01:06:56.760 empire in human history until that point. And so Cyrus was the greatest emperor in his day,

01:07:03.300 539 BC, who'd ever lived. And so you could think, especially after the Assyrians, you know, 0.96

01:07:09.940 you've inherited a large portion of the Assyrian Empire and they had pretty big egos, right? They 1.00

01:07:15.680 had pretty big egos but cyrus was not that way he uh his tomb was it's got a lovely inscription

01:07:23.380 that says something like and it's again it's not a very big tomb it's actually quite a small thing

01:07:27.800 uh and it says here lies uh cyrus who won the persians their empire um please don't begrudge

01:07:35.560 me this modest patch of earth that covers me something like that and it's like that's that's

01:07:40.540 a lovely inscription that tells you a lot about the man, right? So I totally side with Cyrus over

01:07:47.760 Babylon. All my homies hate Babylon. Nichiren, a Japanese Buddhist monk, founder of Nichiren

01:07:54.780 Buddhism, inscribes the Daigoonzon. Never heard of it. In 1492, Christopher Columbus's expedition

01:08:05.820 makes landfall on a caribbean island he names san salvador like the whatling island in the

01:08:10.860 bahamas yeah the real name whatling island uh the explorer believes he has reached east asia so

01:08:16.220 this is the day when columbus actually arrives in the new world and all of the problems began

01:08:22.540 so is it like columbus day in america then

01:08:29.420 do you uh do you have columbus day i don't know if you have columbus day

01:08:35.320 i don't know i don't know anything about those things um but yeah columbus is an interesting

01:08:39.940 character as well isn't he i'm sure bo's got all sorts of things behind the paywall about

01:08:45.060 christopher columbus watch his epoch show go sign up to lotusies.com five pound a month helps keep

01:08:49.840 the lights on help me keep oppressing my employees keep them under the thumb um bo's doubtless done

01:08:56.140 loads of stuff on columbus um but it's it's a fascinating era of history isn't it like

01:09:02.160 discovering an entire two continents that are full of people who have been isolated from the

01:09:08.480 rest of humanity for 10 000 years if not more okay what crazy stuff were there oh my god

01:09:17.440 discovered the aztecs jesus christ what are you doing we're just ripping the hearts out of our 0.99

01:09:21.440 victims why because otherwise the sun doesn't rise retard what you these guys don't even know 0.93

01:09:28.960 There we go. Quetzalcoatl or whoever it was. These guys don't even know that I'm supposed 0.94

01:09:36.440 to rip someone's heart out to keep the sun from not rising. I'll tell you what, whatever

01:09:42.040 they did to them was justified, man. The Aztecs were actually mental as well. It's not just 0.97

01:09:48.140 that, you know, the mass public executions of captives of war, right, for religious

01:09:54.680 reasons. There were other things in the Aztecs, things that were mental. They probably, the Aztec

01:09:58.980 Empire probably wasn't long for the Earth anyway. It wasn't even very big, and it wasn't much of an

01:10:03.160 empire either. But it's probably good that the Spanish destroyed it. But just, when it comes to 0.98

01:10:09.780 like, you know, raw levels of human suffering in the world, better to not have an Aztec Empire than 0.98

01:10:14.200 have one. Step YI. Right, okay, let's go through some Super Chats. See, I've watched both show 0.99

01:10:23.040 enough to know how this works. I can get control of the mouse. There we go. Right, so. Tom, I don't

01:10:31.020 accept the submissions for Islander, so don't ask me. That's raw you need to ask. Luke says,

01:10:37.000 G'day Carl. How was everyone's weekend? My weekend was pretty good. How was your weekend chat?

01:10:42.520 Hopefully it was good. What did I do for the weekend? That's my mother-in-law's birthday

01:10:48.380 dinner, which was nice. Um, I get on with my in-laws. A lot of people don't, but I get

01:10:54.360 on with mine. Um, I like, um, what else? What else did I do? Did something on Saturday.

01:11:04.180 Oh yeah, I took the kids to Uffington. Um, the white horse in Uffington, which is really

01:11:09.320 nice. Um, so me and the kids were like walking up and down these hills and my three-year-old,

01:11:14.620 she's like three and a half now um she did really well actually climbing up and down these hills

01:11:18.780 um because they are pretty steep but when we got to the really steep ones she'd be like oh my leg

01:11:24.860 hurts i'm like so i had to put her on my shoulders and then scale up this insanely steep hill so it

01:11:34.000 was uh twice as hard as normal for me um but it was a really nice day and we had this incredible

01:11:40.520 moment where we we got to the car park got out and we're walking towards the hills you know

01:11:46.040 half a mile away something like that and this giant buzzard just came and landed on a sign next

01:11:52.500 to us and so me and my kids like oh my god and it was almost like it was tame like and it was about

01:11:58.660 i don't know three meters away maybe it was really really close and so we saw this wild buzzard just

01:12:05.780 sit on this sign standing on the sign and me and my kids just like oh my god and this thing's just

01:12:11.220 like looking around just like you know just it's there for a couple of minutes and then it's just

01:12:17.160 like yeah i'm just gonna go sail off into the forest or whatever and it was just like oh that's

01:12:21.800 incredible it's just quite a big bird you know and it's a good looking bird and it was just crazy

01:12:28.020 because it almost seemed like it was domesticated almost seemed like it was a tame animal because

01:12:32.700 it was not bothered i mean my kids were being loud as well oh my god daddy oh my god i'm like

01:12:36.960 don't scare it otherwise it'll fly off um and it was it was just completely unfazed by it by my

01:12:45.180 kids being really noisy and so me and my son got got some video footage and photos of it which is

01:12:50.420 really cool i might put it on twitter so people can see it um i didn't i had no idea what it was

01:12:55.240 either it's a common buzzard apparently i don't know anything about buzzards um but yeah yeah so

01:13:00.120 my weekend was fun you know um then we uh just got lunch afterwards and then came home it was good

01:13:07.320 but it is too early in the morning for me to do a painting stream that's true

01:13:12.240 that's true also this is the thing i'm being oppressed by the british government i could

01:13:16.960 be doing painting except the british government is oppressing me by forcing me to give rights

01:13:22.540 to my employees um all i'm saying is when i went in carls britain

01:13:31.120 landlord rights will be considered human rights finally uh that's the name says i left the uk for

01:13:40.000 18 months on friday it noted that per liter of diesel was two pounds in nagoya it's 150 yen or

01:13:47.280 75 pence high wages mean nothing if everything is high cost well that's the problem isn't it

01:13:52.800 like you know we the thing is britain doesn't even have high wages right wages in britain

01:13:59.320 are unbelievably low it's just people in britain don't realize how poor they are like why is

01:14:05.480 everything in your life on finance the the perennial dino financing his entire life

01:14:10.520 so don't you understand that just means you're a serf you are now enslaved to all of these 0.59

01:14:16.340 payment plans that you have. 0.74

01:14:19.380 I mean, it's genuinely like Fight Club, right?

01:14:21.680 You've got a load of stuff that you don't really need,

01:14:23.800 and now you're going to have to work for, like, however many years

01:14:26.040 to pay them off till you finally own them.

01:14:30.340 That's Dino-ism for you.

01:14:34.060 But anyway, I'm here.

01:14:35.660 I want to liberate the Dino from his payment plans.

01:14:39.800 And again, we don't understand.

01:14:41.260 Like, the entire purpose of the British state

01:14:43.080 is to make sure you earn somewhere between 30 and 50 grand a year right if you earn more than 50

01:14:47.800 grand you get taxed to hell like i'm getting taxed uh if you earn more less than 30 grand then boom

01:14:53.020 everyone gets on benefits and remember 53 of the country in this country 53 of people in this

01:14:58.220 country are net recipients of money from the government rather than net taxpayers only 47

01:15:05.240 percent of the country are net taxpayers most people do not contribute most people because

01:15:12.980 the government's like well you need top-ups but of course what does this do this means that the

01:15:16.700 the vast bureaucracy of the government is just funneling money back to the bottom so the people

01:15:22.300 at the top have less money the the the the amount that we have to grow is far less the amount of

01:15:27.460 tax burden is i mean seriously right if i didn't have to pay 25 corporation tax my business would

01:15:34.800 have 25% more presenters and more employees, right? The size of the business is circumscribed

01:15:42.040 by taxation. And then the amount that everything costs, I have to spend all of this money on

01:15:48.740 equipment and whatnot. Well, that costs more because that's got tax on it as well. So it's

01:15:52.500 like, okay, well, we would be a far richer country if we just had fewer taxes. If you just knock it

01:15:59.100 off, actually, would be lovely. And I'd be able to employ loads of people. I'd be able to employ

01:16:04.740 loads more people i'd love to employ more people but what am i supposed to do the government's

01:16:09.440 screwing me again this is why sign up to lotacies.com five pound a month help me oppress more

01:16:14.200 people also click like on the stream because like i said we've got to win guys we've got to win

01:16:20.180 i can't have someone else having more likes than me right and i haven't even told them it's

01:16:24.780 competition so they don't even know um why don't we have any british mega conglomerates we break

01:16:30.760 them up indian giants now grow uh now own britain's great biggest steel also in refinery

01:16:36.420 firms and we are building europe's biggest battery plant in somerset yeah yeah well we do everything

01:16:41.360 to make sure that we can't ever succeed like everything everything about the british state 0.91

01:16:45.600 is just about denying the anglo his birthright right that's the point keeping us down on a 0.85

01:16:52.880 plantation rather than allowing us to be successful and actually accomplish stuff and they do this

01:16:59.500 through taxes and regulations and rules about people being forced to be to have holiday um

01:17:07.520 morning carl i think we're at the point where calling our government's media and own citizens 0.61

01:17:11.560 liberal and they're openly anti-white is highly ineffective i must call them what they are anti-white

01:17:16.300 yeah but the thing is it doesn't mean anything to anyone right so it sounds like a libertarian

01:17:19.540 saying statist people are just like what because i mean if they are anti-white they're just like

01:17:24.840 yeah and what so i mean like the the laws are explicitly two-tier like the the media reporting

01:17:32.880 is explicitly two-tier the government's concerns are explicitly two-tier so saying oh it's anti-white

01:17:39.180 they'll they'll just say yes they'll give you the giga chad face and move on there's it's not

01:17:44.300 it's not going to change the thing at all they're not going to be persuaded by it at all they don't

01:17:51.840 see you as having a legitimate claim to anything. So, you know, whining that they're anti-white,

01:17:56.680 it's like, well, yeah, obviously. I just don't think it'll fix anything. I mean, just to

01:18:03.120 be clear, they are. It's quite self-evident that they are, but it's not going to fix

01:18:07.580 anything to point that out continuously. India supplies 50% of Britain's medicines and

01:18:12.720 pharmaceutical ingredients. These plants take 30 years to build, even if we dream of breaking

01:18:17.240 that Indian monopoly. Yeah, well, I mean, you say that these plants take 30 years to 0.99

01:18:21.140 build in a country that isn't insanely over-regulated like our own, right? I mean,

01:18:27.120 how long has Hinkley Point C been in progress? 20 years? Like, what about HS2? Like, nothing gets

01:18:35.280 built in this country because everything has got a series of insane regulations that prevent it

01:18:40.320 from being built and makes it cost hundreds of millions of pounds. Okay, well, all of this needs

01:18:46.480 to go. All of this nonsense needs to go. The ability of my employees to take mandatory 0.84

01:18:51.960 holidays needs to go. These so-called leftists openly hate white men. Yes, we know. It's 0.98

01:19:00.680 been their primary foot forward this whole time. They shame and slander and hate white 0.99

01:19:05.920 people in Western civilization as a whole. Calling our enemies the name of their choosing 0.97

01:19:09.420 is ineffective that anti-white it's like look we know like their entire like i appreciate what

01:19:16.580 you're saying but them saying and first things first right negatively defining someone is never

01:19:23.320 really very good never really very effective like so if if they would say oh you're an anti-progressive

01:19:30.580 which they would i'm like yeah duh obviously i am and in the same way if you would say to

01:19:40.720 david lammy you're anti-white you'd be like yeah i want reparations like it doesn't it doesn't bite

01:19:47.540 right it doesn't bite to them there's no pain they're not like they don't recoil when you call

01:19:52.640 them this it's just self-evident in everything they do so i just don't think there's a very

01:19:57.280 effective um rhetorical strategy frankly um it's not it's not that it's not true it's obviously

01:20:03.280 true but i just don't think it it does anything why is my why is my thing turned off all right

01:20:09.060 anyway um politicians are traitors the judges are traitors the police are traitors yeah we do have 0.98

01:20:15.260 a lot of traitors the lawyers are traitors the media are traitors the journalists are traitors 1.00

01:20:19.360 the rich and powerful, mostly are traitors. Yeah, I mean, if you're operating from the 0.93

01:20:27.040 position of what is good for the indigenous British people, well, yeah, yeah, yeah, we're

01:20:32.200 governed by an imperial apparatus that sees us as just a frontier to be exploited, right?

01:20:42.180 And that's how we're being treated, as a frontier to be exploited. And so this is the nature

01:20:48.000 of things. Other than Jesus returning with divine judgment, what do we do? How do we

01:20:57.640 stop the invasion? The rape, the murders, the theft, the assault? How do we stop the

01:21:00.440 tyranny? Well, obviously, we're going to have to vote. Because I live in Britain, and we're

01:21:12.040 currently broadcasting to YouTube, we're obviously going to vote our way out of this. And I've

01:21:17.800 always said, we're going to vote or out of this. So that's the only dimension on which we can

01:21:24.180 actually talk about this subject. But this is why I support Restore Britain and why I think you

01:21:28.460 should as well. If there's one thing that does separate Restore Britain from all of the other

01:21:34.340 parties, it's that the people in Restore Britain, Rupert Lowe, Alistair, all of the other guys,

01:21:41.860 They are prepared to take our side

01:21:45.240 They are prepared to take our side

01:21:47.600 In discussions and debates

01:21:49.100 In policy

01:21:50.120 In what is good for the country

01:21:51.600 This is the one party we have

01:21:53.620 That is prepared to take our side

01:21:55.640 Over everything else

01:21:57.060 And haven't backslid on any of this

01:22:00.240 They haven't taken a step back

01:22:03.420 They haven't fired Charlie Downs

01:22:07.780 They don't punch to the right

01:22:11.400 they realize that look the enemies are all to the left at this point and so that's why restore

01:22:16.560 britain is a party that i'm endorsing and have sported and have joined uh not to be honest i

01:22:21.940 think is the only way that we can move forward that i'm allowed to talk about on youtube

01:22:26.360 luke says was wondering if you'd be interested in inviting the guys from china show

01:22:31.700 winston stertzil stersl and matthew tai onto the podcast uh newspaper by the way don't worry about

01:22:38.240 the swearing. Well, I don't think I did swear. I tried not to swear. But, um, I'm not familiar

01:22:45.600 with them, but, um, I haven't got any particular reason why I wouldn't be happy to have them

01:22:50.860 on. Uh, who's on tomorrow morning? Brother Stelios, Brother Luca, the, the tubber, Harry?

01:22:56.820 Uh, I actually don't know. I don't, I don't know. Can I get my calendar? Let me see if

01:23:01.640 I'm going to get the calendar up.

01:23:07.220 I don't know who's on tomorrow.

01:23:08.700 I should have checked, shouldn't I?

01:23:12.320 Okay, if I type in calendar,

01:23:13.780 it doesn't give me Google Calendar.

01:23:15.640 It's Harry.

01:23:16.540 It's Harry.

01:23:17.320 Harry's on tomorrow.

01:23:18.840 Thank you for letting me know.

01:23:20.460 It's Harry that's on tomorrow.

01:23:23.920 The diesel thing with Trump

01:23:25.060 reminds me of an episode

01:23:25.920 I was watching of China Uncensored.

01:23:27.960 Chris mentioned that the US

01:23:28.960 could be a couple of months off

01:23:30.220 from less relying on china's rare metals um quite possibly i don't know anything about that though

01:23:35.060 to be honest um thank you pig dog um dragon lady chris says the sand people in the pro-jedi

01:23:43.680 propaganda with the tuscan raiders thank you very much i appreciate that uh yes the tuscan raiders 0.91

01:23:48.400 um it is kind of crazy how the houthis uh have that have that aspect to them isn't it you know

01:23:56.960 life imitates heart my local council are complaining about the oxford cambridge train 1.00

01:24:01.560 line demanding the business case for it easy travel for residents not good enough really

01:24:06.420 like getting from oxford cambridge is actually not easy right i didn't even i didn't think there

01:24:12.260 was a train line for it right um which has been a pain getting oxford is not the easiest thing to

01:24:17.620 travel to especially from the southwest like if you're not driving there if you get the train 0.96

01:24:20.920 you've got to go to london change and then go up again and it's just a pain in the ass considering 0.96

01:25:01.740 All the lads are genuinely great soldiers,

01:25:03.540 but there is effectively none of us,

01:25:04.800 and we have no funding.

01:25:05.600 Sad state.

01:25:06.500 Yeah, I mean, this is something we've talked about

01:25:09.000 plenty of times.

01:25:10.240 The British soldier is probably the finest soldier

01:25:13.580 that's ever lived.

01:25:15.160 The British state, not the finest state

01:25:17.740 that's ever existed.

01:25:18.480 and has always underfunded and taken for granted

01:25:22.300 the incredible material with which it has to work.

01:25:27.800 It's very disappointing, to be honest,

01:25:28.920 because we do amazing things.

01:25:31.500 Carl, what would you do if a bird the size of a car

01:29:21.440 australia still has mandatory holiday periods for its employees so i can't move there i can't

01:29:26.860 move load-seaters there. Jacob says, as a late-night American, what is your opinion on the

01:29:33.440 Rubio-Vance debate? Honestly, both are not ideal, but I lean Vance. Cheers. Well, I like the husky

01:29:40.620 man with the beard, because I feel represented in him. But Rubio has been really strong recently.

01:29:49.120 I thought Rubio was just another rhino back when Trump was busy knocking them all down.

01:29:54.760 little Marco Rubio uh I I thought Rubio was just gonna be another rhino and Rubio has turned into

01:30:01.200 an absolute crusader and I've been very impressed with some of his speeches and some of his actions

01:30:06.100 as well um he's been he's been doing some great stuff so oh I don't know I mean I'll still go for

01:30:12.900 Vance because I do I do quite like Vance's post-liberalism um but Rubio has been strong

01:30:20.200 recently really strong um so i'm i'm certainly if it ends up being rubio and not vance i wouldn't

01:30:28.480 be disappointed that at all actually uh only anglish people can be anglish that's true

01:30:33.660 camp of the saints should be shown shoved down everyone's mind the moment they're 16 yeah i'm

01:30:40.040 working on a book club on camp of the saints at the moment actually which will be behind the

01:30:43.640 paywall on logistics.com um mine will be the best review of camp of the saints obviously

01:30:48.860 um but it's and it's taking a while because i want to be forensic about it i want to go into

01:30:55.180 real concrete depth about it david bett says 25 corporation tax they wonder why we left i know

01:31:05.040 it's mad it's mad it's like oh we're going to leave the european union okay great well what's

01:31:10.860 corporation tax on the nearest english-speaking eu country it's like 12 and a half percent

01:31:15.420 okay easy we can beat that what's ours 25 why why are we doing that aren't we trying to outcompete

01:31:23.000 europe aren't we trying to beat these people haven't we just decided no it's not cooperation

01:31:27.280 it's war abolish corporation tax every and guarantee that every corporation that comes

01:31:34.020 here you sign like a 50-year contract no tax right guarantee it make them want to come here

01:31:39.980 make them beg you for terms make them beg you to come and look we just want all of the countries

01:31:45.860 set up the international european headquarters of whatever corporation we are because we want

01:31:51.560 to get the best deal we want them all here and what will happen we'll pay all the locals to work

01:31:56.480 in the headquarters that's what ireland has done that's why ireland has a higher gdp per capita 0.89

01:32:01.300 than britain now the potatoes are out competing us because we are retarded because we've got a gun 0.98

01:32:07.180 to our own heads. We're like, no, we're just going to pull it. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, 0.93

01:32:09.780 bang. Just pull in the trigger as often as we can, as hard as we can. And everyone's just like,

01:32:13.460 God, you could just not do that. No one's making you do that. And we're like, I've got another gun.

01:32:17.600 God damn it, man. God damn it. And we're going to get Andy Burnham now. Brilliant. 35 billion 1.00

01:32:22.720 pounds of tax rises. Yes, that will save the country, Andy. You'll finally have saved Britain.

01:32:28.100 If we just raise taxes enough, Britain will be complete. The argument of whatever it is,

01:32:34.160 whatever it is you're trying to do, that'll just be the end of it. We'll have completed it. You'll

01:32:38.200 have finally got the taxes you needed to solve the problem of human rights.

01:32:46.480 Enhance my calm. I'm going to enhance my calm.

01:32:51.700 Great to see the minoxidil is working out on boat. Is that the hair thing?

01:32:55.220 Yeah, I, I, thankfully, I tell you what, man, when you get to my age and you've got this much

01:33:00.180 hair left, especially with the amount of hair my dad has, you are thrilled. You are thrilled

01:33:04.320 to see this much hair. Genuinely, I mean it. I tell you what, it's nice. If I hit 50 with

01:33:13.000 my hair, man, I'm going to be bragging. I'm going to be bragging. And it's still mostly

01:33:19.560 brown as well. I've got a couple of grays coming through at the front there, and I've

01:33:23.560 got a bit of gray coming in at the side. But it's still mostly quite dark. Although, I

01:33:29.220 tell you what man i used to have the most beautiful deep chestnut hair when i was young

01:33:33.040 and my my oldest son's got it my younger son and daughter have got their mother's hair color

01:33:37.200 but my oldest son has got my hair color from when i was young and he says i have this unbelievably

01:33:41.620 thick rich chestnut brown hair beautiful absolutely beautiful growing old is such a curse man it's not

01:33:48.740 fair it's not fair why of all the things man of all the things take away from your hair

01:33:53.540 your hair evolution why like and it's not like if it was like an immutable law of nature that

01:34:00.720 every man when he reached 40 lost his hair you'd be like okay well that's just it's it's physics

01:34:06.660 right but it's not the case so why some and not others it's so cruel it's such a cruel thing

01:34:13.580 anyway um 11th of october uh or the 12th of october 1634 the bachardi flood north freesia

01:34:24.660 soggified i'm actually not familiar with that but um don't know who this new chap is on the

01:34:32.200 breakfast show but i like him maybe you guys should keep him around greetings from australia

01:34:36.100 well i appreciate the love i'm getting from the australians right because obviously

01:34:39.460 i guess you guys don't get to see very many of my live streams or anything like that

01:34:43.060 because of the time difference but man i can't keep getting up at six in the morning

01:34:47.780 it's difficult it's actually you know it's not that difficult actually you know i i'm finding

01:34:53.880 myself less sympathy for beau and he's like yeah i've been up since god knows what time this morning

01:34:57.840 it's been tough now he never complains i'm just joking uh but it's it's not that difficult actually

01:35:02.220 and uh and i there's there's something about getting all of your work done before everyone

01:35:07.700 else has had breakfast or getting the majority of your work done before everyone else had breakfast

01:35:11.640 there is something appealing in it there is something quite fun in that you know it's like

01:35:15.000 it's good to have it done and then the rest of the day is it's it's far less of a sort of pressure

01:35:20.340 on you right because when you've got the podcast coming up you're like right okay because i mean

01:35:24.240 every every broadcast is a performance right everything is a performance um and it's not that

01:35:29.480 it's um fake or something like that i mean you are as you are right your personality is what

01:35:35.280 your personality is and if you've got to talk for like an hour and a half two hours you can't fake

01:35:39.900 it it is what you are but you are still conscious that you don't want dead air you've got to you've

01:35:45.520 got to be talking to people and you've got to make it interesting and entertaining what you're

01:35:49.260 saying to them blah blah blah right so it's it's still effort that you have to call up and getting

01:35:54.900 that done early in the morning I can see why Bo was like I'd like to do a breakfast show because

01:35:58.180 this is it's nice to know that I won't well I will have to do it later on when I make a video

01:36:02.360 for my own channels but like it's nice to know that I don't have to do the podcast today for

01:36:06.660 example thank you for sending the lotus team's cigars for christmas how many of you guys smoke

01:36:12.500 uh well i mean i probably probably about 12 of us would have a cigar so i mean i'd love a cigar

01:36:21.860 if you're gonna send one i've known a cigar in ages actually uh number one schmuck says here

01:36:26.420 take these u.s monies to fuel the engine of british restoration to our extended family across

01:36:31.360 the pond we stand now and always by your side against the force of evil stay strong brothers

01:36:34.300 thank you very much and this is how we've always felt about the americans as well right we have

01:36:38.420 always said whatever whenever we've covered anything whenever we've made recommendations

01:36:42.960 we're always thinking what is the best interest for the people of america our cousins across the

01:36:48.280 pond our dear friends across the pond what is in your best interest and that's always been what

01:36:54.040 this has been about this is about making sure the people of the west all of us collectively

01:36:58.540 understand actually we are the inheritors of a great and united civilization right we are actually

01:37:05.980 all the same people just in different locations and we should be on one another's side like we

01:37:12.520 should take our own side because the rest of the world is going to take their own bloody side

01:37:17.300 and they're going to be merciless to us when the crunch comes they're not going to care we're not

01:37:23.060 going to have like an argument we're going to have a moral argument about what a fair distribution

01:37:28.000 and settlement is going to be.

01:37:29.420 They're just going to take whatever they can

01:37:30.580 until we stop things from being taken.

01:37:33.100 So, definitely.

01:37:35.500 Letting Bo go on holiday.

01:37:36.640 You've gone soft.

01:37:37.900 Drag him back from his decadence 0.97

01:37:39.160 and get him back to work like a good 7th.

01:37:40.780 No, literally, it's the law.

01:37:43.080 It's not that I've gone soft.

01:37:44.960 Like I said, is an employer not entitled

01:37:46.880 to the sweat of his employees' brows?

01:37:49.600 Like, it's the law.

01:37:51.140 It's the oppressive government.

01:37:53.140 If only we had anarcho-capitalism.

01:37:58.000 yeah sorry that Bo isn't here but uh what are you gonna do what are you gonna do anyway right

01:38:02.960 so I think this is about the sort of time that the stream would end so hopefully this has been

01:38:09.380 um an entertaining breakfast show in Bo's absence I realize I'm not the great Bo Dade but

01:38:14.920 I've done my best um do me a favor like I said at the beginning click like and subscribe or

01:38:20.300 specifically like on the stream because I want the most likes and the number of likes is important

01:38:26.040 because YouTube ranks things in algorithms based on likes.

01:38:29.740 So basically, I need the most views, I need the most likes

01:38:32.340 because otherwise they're going to unionize and overthrow me.

01:38:35.340 I don't want to be unionized against and overthrown.

01:38:37.800 So click like and we'll be back tomorrow with Harry.

01:38:42.180 Take care, guys. Have a great day.
