00:03:17.780 don't i don't dan witton who i like and respect i was on his show right he does loads of royal family

00:03:23.920 stuff like it's in the mail or the express they've always every day got a whole section about breaking

00:03:29.180 down what the royals did recently in that day i just don't care i can't bring myself to care about

00:03:33.860 them all that much all right the sun again kate and wills wills i'm not in a calm state this cabal

00:03:41.680 this cabal of editors in the papers it's out of control isn't it isn't it just completely out of

00:03:48.040 control it's just by coincidence they've all decided to run with the same story

00:03:52.540 is it it's a coincidence is it day after day after day this happens

00:03:57.340 they're obviously in cahoots aren't they obviously so

00:04:01.840 why who really controls that if it is as simple as the most senior people at these papers are in

00:04:08.600 some sort of group whatsapp group telegram group some other thing facebook whatever it is

00:04:14.120 who really controls that who calls the shots in that group if it is as simple as that

00:04:21.000 who is it really who's saying right guys today you're all going to talk about wills and kate

00:04:28.980 at the baftas and that he's not calm you're all talking about that tomorrow who is who's that

00:04:35.460 who is it someone who owns the papers isn't it someone who owns the group one of the two or three

00:04:44.960 guys will decide what they're going to tell you about on any given day it's really cynical it's

00:04:52.260 disgusting really pretending to have a free press it's not really free is it it's controlled by

00:04:58.240 a very very small clique of people isn't it it's what it is lie by omission to you day after day

00:05:05.680 after day after day all right the star a right royal cover-up slightly different take palace files

00:05:15.460 could reveal queen protected andy senior people were aware what andrew was doing i think everyone

00:05:21.380 was aware basically not everyone everyone in the know everyone in and around that circle would have

00:05:27.080 known wouldn't they did the queen help cover it up in some way yeah probably yeah yeah really probably

00:05:31.940 yeah remember when some of the first epstein stuff started to really break the queen was still alive

00:05:37.060 and she'd stand by him her um her stance was was always to not always but nearly always to remain

00:05:44.700 quiet if there's any sort of scandal going on in and around the royal family

00:05:47.720 or anything really she just would rarely if ever give a statement one way or the other

00:05:52.640 just keep quiet never explain never apologize sort of a sort of a thing you know and even with

00:05:58.760 andrew no real never really a statement saying we're sorry or the or the he has done something

00:06:05.800 wrong or the will help police or he's no one's above the law no just silence just always silence

00:06:12.040 never stripping him of uh any of his titles or anything you think mummy you didn't know

00:06:19.800 for some reason in this country loads of people loved the queen i mean i'm a lukewarm monarchist

00:06:27.140 very lukewarm but nonetheless a monarchist you know if lefties and communists hate it then i'm for it

00:06:34.120 not always i'm not that mad but i'm a lukewarm monarchist the institution of monarchy has served us

00:06:40.700 quite well the individual people in it though including the queen queen elizabeth ii we did a

00:06:46.740 bit of content it might have been a lads hour a few months ago with rafe heidel manku and carl

00:06:52.420 benjamin was on it and we was doing a tier list of all the all the royals going back to william the

00:06:58.040 conqueror and for some reason i don't mean to cast shade at rafe or carl here but for some reason

00:07:04.340 they both insisted that queen elizabeth ii should be in the s tier the top tier one of the best monarchs

00:07:09.420 ever i just didn't agree with that i don't agree with that they got their way of course

00:07:12.240 i never i've never really agreed with that like look how britain has declined since the 1950s

00:07:18.740 like her whole reign unbelievable decline elizabeth the silent elizabeth the absent

00:07:27.520 was she silent and absent when it came to andrew yeah basically yeah all right the metro

00:07:41.180 it's far too early turn my stomach i haven't had breakfast oh thank god i haven't had breakfast

00:07:52.600 after andrew arrest rocks monarchy access all areas cops can see my files vows king

00:08:01.320 as email says whistleblower told of of brothers money man okay how many skeletons has uh king charles

00:08:10.900 got in his cupboard hmm hmm how many

00:08:14.460 because he's the monarch they'll really never investigate that he will go to his grave never

00:08:23.740 being asked pertinent questions about his relationship with jimmy savile extremely close

00:08:29.400 related weirdly close relationship with jimmy savile like best mates almost coming to visit him all the

00:08:35.900 time staying on royal estates all the time jimmy savile one of the worst pedophiles and necrophiles

00:08:45.840 in history if the accounts are to be believed really close friends with prince charles as was now king charles

00:08:52.800 it's not a great family right your only job as the royal family is to not be involved in scandal and

00:09:01.800 crime that's your really your only job everything else is window dressing your only job is to be

00:09:08.500 upright stand you know just to be not scandalous not to be scandalized

00:09:14.740 couldn't hack it couldn't do it could they they failed

00:09:20.140 let's do that okay the tory graph the daily telegraph epstein secret files hidden across u.s

00:09:28.480 mildly interesting pedophile rented storage units to prevent authorities seizing material on computers

00:09:35.500 interesting if true why not just destroy it i don't know why you don't know how people behave what

00:09:43.780 they do let's say you're jeffrey epstein you've got loads of hard drives or something or loads of

00:09:48.920 physical old school photos printed out or something in photo albums i don't know what god knows what

00:09:53.280 you know you're under investigation from the authorities the fbi the cops whatever

00:09:57.680 i'm not going to destroy it i'll keep it in a lockup somewhere else

00:10:01.620 i find some places like rural arkansas or idaho or something keep it in a lockup there they'll

00:10:07.440 never find it there but i'm not going to destroy it these people such freaks such weirdos okay

00:10:12.800 britain faces billion pound bill if chagos deal collapses okay so this is the thing where the

00:10:19.880 americans um trump the trump administration are increasingly making noises they're going to try

00:10:27.440 and scupper the or not just trump actually also people in congress in the senate

00:10:31.120 uh going to try and scupper the chagos deal

00:10:33.980 which is interesting to me because of course i would like that to happen it's we it's so weird

00:10:41.720 that star was trying to do this deal um weird and the um i thought it was a done deal sort of

00:10:50.000 legally anyway it's just sort of a done deal it's just a case of um finally doing i thought it was a

00:10:54.860 done deal back in 2024 but anyway apparently according to various articles today and over

00:11:01.700 the weekend it seems there is still a path for it to be sort of undone and to not sort of for

00:11:08.000 mauritius not to formally take control of those islands and if america can do that if the united

00:11:14.620 states can do that because of course diego garcia that massive basin there even though it's british

00:11:19.180 it's strategically important for the us it's the us who's going to project their power abroad much

00:11:25.120 more than the uk i mean we've got aircraft carriers but we don't actually go around the world projecting

00:11:32.580 our power all that much all that often do we but the united states do so it's much more of key

00:11:37.960 importance to them why why the americans or at least trump as soon as he got into office didn't make

00:11:44.080 it sort of priority zero why they didn't say more and do more before this point i don't know but there

00:11:49.720 you go there's uh all sorts of questions aren't there around that that that sans qc fellow and lord

00:11:59.780 hermer and kirstama whether they personally made loads of money in legal bills legal fees for

00:12:07.100 representing the chagossians in all of this whether they personally pocketed from it a bit of

00:12:13.820 funds

00:12:16.360 once and then uh...

00:12:17.060 uh...

00:12:19.880 but they may vary from any fancy bridge in this to be believed that is what was going on

00:12:25.460 needed

00:12:26.780 i mean how someone like manderson would would sell out his country for

00:12:31.260 fifty grand

00:12:32.820 fifty not know that much money

00:12:35.620 we'd undermine you'd like uh...

00:12:37.780 it philip sands

00:12:41.200 Keir Starmer would undermine our national security and rewrite sort of the whole global strategic picture for the sake of a million quid or two million quid or something in that order.

00:12:56.180 I.e. not all that much money in the scheme of things.

00:13:03.720 Streeting must be sacked to reset government, allies tell Starmer.

00:13:07.480 It's interesting, there's a thing over the weekend a bit that Keir Starmer briefed people saying, or Starmer's people rather, briefed people saying that Starmer's thinking of drawing up a plan to sack Streeting, West Streeting, the health secretary, and potentially, possibly, allegedly one of his main rivals for the leadership of the whole party and country.

00:13:30.760 Well, the Prime Minister, just sack him. If you don't want him in your cabinet anymore, you can just sack him.

00:13:36.060 Don't have to brief people about how you're thinking about drawing up a plan to sack him.

00:13:40.600 Just sack him, if you want to. It's weird.

00:13:43.040 And that looks so weird.

00:13:45.120 Never really heard of a Prime Minister leaking that they're going to draw up a plan to reshuffle their cabinet for the sake of one particular person.

00:13:54.140 You just do it or you don't do it.

00:13:55.260 Weird. Weird.

00:13:58.280 Alright. Reform plan, visa ban for Pakistan. That would be nice. That's a story that apparently reform, I suppose they're being pushed to the right by a restore.

00:14:07.960 That they want to have visa bans for certain countries, including Pakistan, which would be nice.

00:14:15.880 If they don't take their deportees back.

00:14:19.520 Because quite often we want to deport some Pakistani people.

00:14:22.140 Let's take, for example, Pakistan.

00:14:23.680 It's obviously not the only country here involved in all of this.

00:14:26.020 But take Pakistan for an example.

00:14:28.580 We've got people that did crimes.

00:14:31.140 Pedophile crimes. Terrible grooming crimes. Whatever.

00:14:34.680 They're convicted. They serve their sentence.

00:14:36.480 Then they're supposed to be deported back to Pakistan, their country of origin.

00:14:39.980 Literally where they were born and stuff.

00:14:42.700 And Pakistan says, no, we refuse. We're not going to have them.

00:14:45.140 And at that point the British government goes, oh.

00:14:47.560 Oh, okay, well, that's the end of the story then.

00:14:50.380 Back to Birmingham you go.

00:14:52.040 Go and live back in Oldham or wherever on the same street with your victims.

00:14:55.620 In the same community.

00:14:56.460 So we need to be able to sort of put pressure on Pakistan and other similar countries to take these people back.

00:15:06.340 Hmm.

00:15:07.300 That would be nice, wouldn't it?

00:15:09.900 It's a reform of making noises like that.

00:15:12.160 This guy, Tim Stanley.

00:15:13.520 I don't really know who he is, but he's come up a number of times in the Telegraph writing some op-eds, some opinion pieces.

00:15:19.500 And they're always terrible.

00:15:21.160 Always retarded.

00:15:22.780 Tim.

00:15:23.060 Look at this.

00:15:26.820 Young people must not be tempted to follow Restore.

00:15:30.560 Why?

00:15:30.940 Says who?

00:15:31.400 Who are you?

00:15:32.120 Shut up, mate.

00:15:33.560 Dickhead.

00:15:35.720 Right.

00:15:36.100 The Times.

00:15:36.700 The Venerable Times.

00:15:41.800 Evidence of Epstein's UK flights destroyed.

00:15:44.320 Great.

00:15:45.640 Brilliant.

00:15:46.700 Blow to trafficking investigation at RAF bases.

00:15:50.460 The story talks about how the police have gone to...

00:15:54.420 Because sometimes things would be flown into RAF bases.

00:15:59.740 Aeroplanes.

00:16:01.360 And that the police have gone there and tried to look at all the records, dating back years and years.

00:16:05.180 And the RAF are just like, whoops!

00:16:06.340 No, that's been destroyed.

00:16:09.700 Oopsie.

00:16:11.160 Nothing to see here.

00:16:14.060 Yeah, there's that woman.

00:16:15.260 Jessie Buckley.

00:16:16.240 Who won an award.

00:16:17.280 Well done.

00:16:18.160 Well done, love.

00:16:20.020 The Guardian.

00:16:20.660 Ugh.

00:16:24.100 Ugh.

00:16:24.720 Ministers reveal a £4 billion package to support pupils with special needs.

00:16:38.660 Yeah.

00:16:39.640 We need loads more money for special needs kids these days.

00:16:42.680 And they often put a picture of a little white kid that's got special needs.

00:16:45.900 Why do we need loads and loads more money?

00:16:49.400 Because we've got loads and loads more special needs kids these days.

00:16:52.340 What happened in 1997 to change that trend, do you think?

00:16:57.420 Why there's loads more kids with severe special needs in the country now than there used to be?

00:17:04.600 Is it congenital diseases that result from inbreeding amongst Muslim populations?

00:17:14.960 Can't ask that.

00:17:15.860 No.

00:17:16.300 There's just, there's just loads more special needs kids now.

00:17:18.860 Don't worry about where they've come from or why that is.

00:17:21.320 There just are loads more and we need to spend loads on it.

00:17:25.280 Mad.

00:17:25.900 Isn't that mad?

00:17:27.100 Exact same picture of this woman who won an award.

00:17:30.480 Calls for inquiry into Andrew Epstein Tyres.

00:17:32.760 Right.

00:17:33.080 Intruder shot dead at Trump residence.

00:17:37.220 We'll talk about this in a bit later.

00:17:38.660 But some kid, I say kid, he was like 21.

00:17:41.960 Feels like a kid to me.

00:17:43.100 I'm in my mid-40s.

00:17:45.100 21 feels like a kid, really, to me.

00:17:49.140 You don't know your arse from your elbow, really, when you're 21, do you?

00:17:52.260 Sorry, Harry.

00:17:54.120 Sorry, mate.

00:17:58.300 It's all good.

00:18:00.160 Sorry, I don't mean that.

00:18:01.260 Some people, it's not always, it's not always.

00:18:03.080 It's not always the case.

00:18:06.540 Keats.

00:18:06.980 Johnny Keats was very, very young and he'd done some very, very deep poetry.

00:18:10.540 It's not always the case.

00:18:11.660 Sometimes someone in their early 20s do some of their greatest sort of work in mathematics or physics, don't they?

00:18:16.440 So it's not always the case.

00:18:17.540 But anyway, this 21-year-old tried to break into Mar-a-Lago.

00:18:20.780 He had a shotgun and a jerry can full of petrol.

00:18:23.060 And when cops confronted him, he raised the shotgun at them, so they shot him dead.

00:18:28.840 Well done, mate.

00:18:31.160 He didn't know what he was doing, did he?

00:18:32.700 He didn't really know what was going on.

00:18:34.620 Made some terrible, terrible decisions there, didn't he?

00:18:39.000 All right.

00:18:39.320 The Independent.

00:18:40.360 Same woman.

00:18:42.840 Tracey Emin talks to...

00:18:44.120 Don't care.

00:18:45.840 Don't care about Tracey Emin.

00:18:47.260 Revealed.

00:18:47.540 The new way stalkers are tailing victims.

00:18:52.240 Sort of don't care about this.

00:18:53.320 Don't know why it's the front page of the Independent.

00:18:55.700 Charities say cyber-stalking, with cheap air tags, don't know what that is,

00:18:59.480 GPS trackers and apps, originally designed for parental control,

00:19:03.460 has led to a surge in crimes with some victims being forced to leave their homes and change jobs.

00:19:09.360 That's unfortunate for the individual victims of that, isn't it?

00:19:12.680 Meanwhile, the rest of the world doesn't affect us, does it?

00:19:15.100 The vast majority of people in the world, that doesn't affect, does it?

00:19:18.220 It is unfortunate for the victims, of course.

00:19:19.700 I've got sympathy for them, but...

00:19:22.100 Well, so we need to crack down on everything, do we?

00:19:24.920 We need to have a much tighter, more oppressive society, do we?

00:19:28.560 Is that the angle you're going with?

00:19:30.460 Ultimately, that would be about, is it?

00:19:33.320 Okay.

00:19:33.940 The iPaper.

00:19:35.400 Number 10 fast-track security vetting for Mandelson, despite known links to Epstein.

00:19:40.140 Hmm.

00:19:41.260 Hmm.

00:19:42.420 He was so plugged in, wasn't he, Mandy?

00:19:45.020 So, insanely plugged in.

00:19:46.560 Let's quickly read the blurb on here, because it sort of says it all.

00:19:49.580 Lord Mandelson was given clearance to view, quote, top-secret material within weeks of being appointed ambassador to the US,

00:19:56.400 a process that usually takes several months, the government has admitted.

00:20:01.260 Pictures show him wearing a pass, indicating he had, quote, developed vetting, quote, status,

00:20:06.840 necessary for his role, faster than usual.

00:20:11.120 Insiders say the Foreign Office was pressured to have Mandelson in post quickly.

00:20:15.860 The government says it is normal to prioritise vetting,

00:20:19.280 and any suggestion that part of the process was missed is false.

00:20:25.180 It raises questions about whether his close connections with the convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein could have been discovered.

00:20:32.640 Right.

00:20:33.400 So it is just, it is just odd, isn't it?

00:20:35.340 OK.

00:20:39.140 Preeti Patel there being hawkish on Iran, for some reason.

00:20:44.100 Dane Preeti Patel.

00:20:45.160 Oh, I'd strip her of that.

00:20:46.380 Tiny little goblin woman, Preeti Patel, says,

00:20:52.800 we must support efforts to overthrow Iranian regime.

00:20:56.480 Must we?

00:20:58.000 Must we?

00:20:58.700 Why, really?

00:20:59.660 What's it got to do with us?

00:21:00.820 What's it got to do with you?

00:21:02.900 Isn't it ultimately a beef between Iran and Israel?

00:21:08.060 A concern mainly for the region.

00:21:11.860 Although it's not, was it?

00:21:12.600 I suppose, I suppose there was, um, cells of Iranian terrorists discovered,

00:21:18.400 including in Swindon, south-west of England, like last year.

00:21:22.820 They do sponsor terrorism all around the world.

00:21:24.560 There is that.

00:21:27.440 Dane Preeti Patel, though.

00:21:29.360 Ugh.

00:21:30.720 Exactly the sort of person who should have never been anywhere near government.

00:21:36.480 Dane Preeti Patel.

00:21:37.740 She'd be in the dock if it was up to me.

00:21:39.000 Why exactly did you fail to close our borders when you were Home Secretary?

00:21:45.120 Exactly.

00:21:47.440 Why did you gaslight us into pretending you weren't going to do that?

00:21:56.060 Absolute filth.

00:21:56.900 All right, the Daily Express.

00:21:57.960 Oh, it's a good paper.

00:21:59.800 PM agreed system that let child sex suspects off with warning.

00:22:07.440 Keir Starmer oversaw the use of paedophile ASBOs.

00:22:24.140 That's what someone else called it.

00:22:26.460 That let suspects off with warnings, the Express can reveal.

00:22:30.960 Our investigation found documents.

00:22:33.500 The writing's so small I can barely read it.

00:22:35.520 Documents from the time, of his time as top prosecutor,

00:22:40.980 saying he was, that are, I can't read it, something and,

00:22:46.520 sorry, it's too small, I can barely read it.

00:22:48.620 But the point is, I did read it earlier, and I'll paraphrase it for you.

00:22:52.860 When he was head of the CPS,

00:22:54.240 Yeah, they decided, and he argued for people that were sort of on remand for child sex crime.

00:23:05.800 Instead of holding them on remand, i.e. in prison, until their trial,

00:23:10.620 he just let them out.

00:23:12.080 Maybe put a tag, put a tag on their ankle or something.

00:23:15.420 Let them back into the general population.

00:23:16.900 That was in the public's best interest, was it?

00:23:25.180 To do that?

00:23:27.220 What a weirdo.

00:23:28.980 What a weirdo.

00:23:30.040 And what about these Ukrainian, uh,

00:23:32.360 these Ukrainian rent boys that burnt down your car,

00:23:35.400 and at your front door of your old house?

00:23:37.340 What's that, what's going on with that, Sakhir?

00:23:39.700 Not a dicky bird.

00:23:40.800 Do the papers talk about that ever?

00:23:42.120 Nope.

00:23:42.380 Not a dicky bird.

00:23:49.280 Hey guys, let's go with Kate and Wills,

00:23:50.720 and remember, don't say anything about those Ukrainian rent boys

00:23:53.060 that did arson on Sakhir's stuff.

00:23:55.940 Yeah?

00:23:56.800 Make sure to omit that every day.

00:23:59.700 Yeah?

00:24:03.960 Now, Financial Times.

00:24:07.220 China emerges as big winner from the tariff wars.

00:24:11.840 Sure.

00:24:12.820 Tehranian secret deal with Kremlin for 500 billion euros of advanced missile kit.

00:24:19.700 Well, that, okay.

00:24:20.900 Well, that will just get blown up by F-35, F-22, B-2 bombing sorties, won't it?

00:24:28.300 That'll be a waste of money.

00:24:29.500 Throwing good money after bad, but okay, it's up to them, isn't it?

00:24:32.640 Bid to rebuild air defences.

00:24:35.440 Rebuild?

00:24:35.960 Okay.

00:24:37.160 It was only last year, wasn't it, that the Israelis and Americans

00:24:39.960 smashed up their air defences to some extent, wasn't it?

00:24:44.200 So, weapon can target, I guess these Russian weapons,

00:24:49.240 can target aircraft and drones.

00:24:51.880 U.S. forces build up in Mideast.

00:24:53.440 Yeah, we know that.

00:24:54.300 Okay.

00:24:55.340 All right, that's the papers.

00:24:57.100 That is the papers.

00:24:58.040 Should we go to our daily, the daily poll?

00:25:03.040 Let's have a look at the poll.

00:25:04.680 Sorry, let me just get my mouse ready for the next thing that comes up.

00:25:08.340 All right, the poll.

00:25:09.040 What did we say today in the poll?

00:25:10.920 We said, should the U.S. tackle Mexican cartels?

00:25:14.740 Because I'm going to talk about that in a moment, the Mexican cartels.

00:25:18.020 Should the U.S. tackle Mexican cartels?

00:25:21.240 81% of you agreeing with me.

00:25:23.320 81% of you say yes.

00:25:27.880 12% of you say not sure.

00:25:30.360 And 7% of you say no.

00:25:32.080 Who are you?

00:25:33.960 Who are you?

00:25:34.300 Come on, own up.

00:25:35.180 Come on, who did it?

00:25:36.060 Own up.

00:25:38.520 Like a teacher at school.

00:25:39.460 Come on, who did it?

00:25:44.680 Step forward.

00:25:46.840 No, 7% of people there say no.

00:25:49.560 Okay.

00:25:50.320 You're entitled to your opinion.

00:25:51.500 You're wrong.

00:25:52.720 No, not necessarily.

00:25:55.620 But okay, a stonking win.

00:25:57.400 That was a bit of a slam dunk, wasn't it?

00:25:58.620 Hopefully, the audience of the Bo Show would agree on such a thing.

00:26:03.060 81%.

00:26:03.460 Should they tackle the Mexican cartels?

00:26:05.700 Yes, because they're evil.

00:26:07.540 They're a force for evil in the world, sort of undeniably.

00:26:09.940 We'll get into it in a minute.

00:26:11.720 And the Mexican government are barely able to do anything about it,

00:26:14.440 or don't seem like they want to,

00:26:15.640 don't have the political will to do so.

00:26:17.960 They had a Mexican president a few years back,

00:26:19.540 in the early 2000s,

00:26:20.580 who sort of tried to go to war with the cartels.

00:26:24.200 Didn't win.

00:26:25.960 Made some successes,

00:26:27.000 but he ultimately didn't win that.

00:26:29.440 He didn't stamp out the cartels in Mexico.

00:26:31.200 All right.

00:26:34.120 So, okay.

00:26:35.160 You agree with me to the tune of 81%.

00:26:39.720 Lovely.

00:26:40.600 Lovely.

00:26:41.080 All right.

00:26:41.480 Let's have a look then at the papers.

00:26:45.440 Here we go.

00:26:45.800 The BBC.

00:26:46.160 Zelensky tells BBC Putin has started World War 3 and must be stopped.

00:26:51.460 It's not World War 3, though, is it, Vlodimir?

00:26:53.220 It's not World War 3, I'm afraid, for you.

00:26:56.060 No one believes that.

00:26:57.360 No one buys that, really.

00:26:59.060 It's not World War 3.

00:26:59.920 And where's all the money gone, Vlodimir?

00:27:01.540 How come your parents are super rich now, Vlodimir?

00:27:04.000 When are you going to have elections again, Vlodimir?

00:27:07.200 World War 3.

00:27:08.020 Shut up.

00:27:08.540 Andrew charged taxpayers for massage with UK Trade Envoy.

00:27:16.920 Claims ex-civil servants.

00:27:20.660 Things about the BAFTAs.

00:27:21.940 Don't care about BAFTAs.

00:27:23.240 Okay, here's the story.

00:27:24.580 Violence erupts in Mexico after killing of country's most wanted drug lord, El Mencho.

00:27:31.340 Let's talk a little bit about the cartels.

00:27:33.640 I'm fascinated by the Mexican cartels.

00:27:36.580 Let's talk a little bit about it.

00:27:37.800 Why not?

00:27:38.040 This is actually a big story.

00:27:41.360 El Mencho.

00:27:42.060 If anyone's never heard of El Mencho, he's sort of one of the biggest kingpins in Mexico.

00:27:48.220 Arguably the biggest one.

00:27:50.660 I mean, his cartel, the CJNG, are not actually the single biggest cartel, but they're one of

00:27:55.720 the biggest players, and arguably they're sort of the most violent.

00:28:00.120 So just a quick back thing, a quick back story here.

00:28:03.040 I've been talking about doing a bit of content, whether it was for Josh Firm's

00:28:07.260 Contemplation series, or my epochs series, history.

00:28:10.760 I was going to talk all about the history of the cartels, going back to sort of the 80s,

00:28:16.700 or even earlier.

00:28:18.100 And I've been threatening that for ages, like two years or more, and I haven't done it.

00:28:22.200 And I'm not sure when I will do it even though, and the reason for that is, it's extremely

00:28:29.040 complicated.

00:28:30.120 And that's not just a cop-out.

00:28:31.760 It's really, really, it's a really, really complicated story.

00:28:34.280 It's like a soap opera, to do it justice.

00:28:36.800 You know, imagine if someone said, tell me about the last 20 years of Emmerdale, or East

00:28:42.080 Enders, or Home and Away.

00:28:44.080 Tell me all the different characters, and how they related to each other, and what went

00:28:47.000 on.

00:28:47.160 The last 20 years worth of that.

00:28:49.220 You'd be like, well, that would be a massive, to tell that would be a massive, and really,

00:28:53.220 really, really complicated story.

00:28:54.820 It's like that.

00:28:55.360 There's so many, I mean, there's the CJNG.

00:29:00.720 Well, there's like the Sinaloa Cartel, they're arch rivals.

00:29:03.420 There's like the Juarez Cartel.

00:29:05.120 There's the Tijuana Cartel, the Gulf Cartel.

00:29:07.380 Loads of others, loads of little splinter ones, local regional ones.

00:29:11.940 And they come and go, some of the smaller ones, and they make deals with each other,

00:29:15.720 and then break up, and there used to be the Zetas, and the Zeta Killers, and all and

00:29:20.480 on and on.

00:29:21.520 It's really complicated.

00:29:22.360 And it's also one of those types of stories, where if you get anything wrong, and it's

00:29:27.080 fair, if you get anything wrong, people jump all over it.

00:29:29.160 Some people, it's like their whole life, their whole personality is knowing about this stuff

00:29:34.240 in insane detail.

00:29:35.120 You know, like down to individual captains of individual cartels.

00:29:38.620 If you get something a bit wrong, they jump all over it.

00:29:40.660 So, to do it justice, to get it right, everything perfectly right.

00:29:43.920 Even though I've been reading around it for a long time, years and years, and trying to

00:29:49.060 read more in-depth about it for the last two and a bit years, I'm still in a position

00:29:53.640 where it's difficult to tell the story.

00:29:57.820 Because to do an epochs is to, it's an exercise in storytelling, really, because you're always

00:30:03.520 going to have to leave loads out.

00:30:05.460 And to tell this story of the Mexican cartels is complicated.

00:30:08.160 Anyway, all that aside, one of the biggest cartels is the CJNG.

00:30:14.800 What's their proper name?

00:30:16.600 The Jalisco New Generation drug cartel.

00:30:21.000 The CJNG.

00:30:23.000 And they're insanely violent.

00:30:25.520 Insanely violent.

00:30:26.560 Like, it's one of their policies to do kind of insane executions and film them and put

00:30:34.100 them out there to scare your enemies, right?

00:30:37.980 I mean, a lot of the cartels do that, but the CJNG go in for it big time.

00:30:42.100 And I can't, I won't, I can't, I can't and won't go into any detail here because it's

00:30:45.440 a morning show.

00:30:47.560 But let's just say, how can I couch this in the easiest language?

00:30:52.960 They do live human vivisection.

00:30:58.040 Put it that way.

00:31:00.420 Live human vivisection.

00:31:02.160 Hopefully any kiddies in the room don't understand what I'm saying, but any adults will get it.

00:31:08.540 Yeah, sometimes of innocent people, essentially innocent people.

00:31:12.040 For example, say one of the other cartels.

00:31:13.880 Say the Sinaloa cartel comes through your region.

00:31:15.900 You're just completely normal, completely innocent Mexican person.

00:31:19.560 Sinaloa cartel come through your region.

00:31:21.680 Their people stay at your hotel, your bed and breakfast, or whatever.

00:31:25.360 They just use your shop.

00:31:26.940 You've got no saying that.

00:31:28.720 You've got no option.

00:31:29.300 You can't stop them.

00:31:29.960 They will kill you if you try and not serve them.

00:31:34.100 And then the CJMG come through.

00:31:36.300 They find out that Sinaloa men stayed at your hotel or something, or bought something in

00:31:41.040 your shop.

00:31:42.980 And they take you out into the woods and do live human vivisection on you and film it

00:31:46.360 and put it on the internet.

00:31:47.460 You didn't do anything wrong.

00:31:48.360 Yeah.

00:31:52.220 Evil.

00:31:53.080 Evil.

00:31:54.320 All right.

00:31:54.820 Okay.

00:31:55.280 You get the picture.

00:31:56.140 Could go on and on and on.

00:31:56.980 But you get the idea.

00:31:59.480 And anyway, their leader was El Mencho.

00:32:04.920 Nomecio Javantes.

00:32:06.980 That's his real name.

00:32:08.580 El Mencho.

00:32:09.780 And he's been their leader for a long time.

00:32:11.640 I think since the beginning of CJNG.

00:32:13.360 Because CJNG was an offshoot of, well, the Jalisco cartel.

00:32:18.460 And they're the new generation one.

00:32:20.360 Right.

00:32:20.560 So he's been their leader for a long time.

00:32:22.340 And, you know, one of the most wanted men.

00:32:24.400 I think even the United States had like a $15 million bounty on his head.

00:32:30.100 It's like a big one.

00:32:30.820 It's like Escobar or like El Chapo.

00:32:35.980 Guzman.

00:32:37.380 One of the biggest, biggest kingpins.

00:32:39.400 Okay.

00:32:40.660 And he's been killed.

00:32:44.400 He's been killed.

00:32:45.120 Let's have a quick read of this.

00:32:46.100 A wave of violence has broken out in Mexico after the country's most wanted drug baron was killed in an operation seeking his arrest.

00:32:52.700 Nemesio Javantes, known as El Mencho, was the leader of the feared Jalisco new generation drug cartel

00:32:58.420 and died after being seriously injured in clashes between his supporters and the army on Sunday.

00:33:03.980 Four CJNG members were killed during the operation in the town of Tapa...

00:33:07.920 Tapa...

00:33:08.620 Tapa...

00:33:09.820 Tapa...

00:33:10.620 Tapa...

00:33:11.180 In central western Jalisco state.

00:33:15.500 And three army personnel were also injured, the Mexican Defence Ministry said.

00:33:19.420 Retaliation for the drug lord's death has seen violence spread to at least a dozen states with CJNG blocking roads and burning vehicles.

00:33:27.080 The CJNG and these big cartels don't think they're just normal guys with pistols and maybe an AK.

00:33:36.760 No, these are guys with, like, armoured vehicles and 50 cows and RPGs and...

00:33:44.380 Yeah, it's a paramilitary, full-blown.

00:33:48.360 It's basically a full-blown paramilitary organisation.

00:33:51.340 Not just a gang.

00:33:53.220 It's more than a gang.

00:33:54.420 All right.

00:33:56.280 Throughout Sunday, there were reports of gunmen on the streets in Jalisco and elsewhere.

00:34:00.080 I think I'm pronounced that right.

00:34:01.280 Obviously, it's written Jalisco, but I think it's pronounced Halisco.

00:34:04.360 All right.

00:34:04.800 Eyewitnesses filmed plumes of smoke rising over several cities, including Guadalajara.

00:34:10.500 All right, it goes on and on and on.

00:34:11.560 Look, there's a picture.

00:34:12.200 Because the CJNG didn't take kindly to their leader getting killed.

00:34:18.900 Part of the story is that it was US law enforcement people that helped them out.

00:34:24.940 Look, several airlines have cancelled flights to Jalisco, including Air Canada, United Airlines and American Airlines.

00:34:31.200 Yeah, it's like in a state of civil unrest, to put it mildly.

00:34:36.000 Yeah, so apparently the Mexican army, the police and army, needed help from the Americans.

00:34:47.980 It's often away, isn't it?

00:34:49.380 Like with Escobar, in the end, it's DEA guys that got him in the end.

00:34:54.340 I know it's different.

00:34:54.900 I know it's Colombia and many, many years ago, but nonetheless.

00:34:57.060 Because the Mexican police and even army, to a lesser extent the army, but they're just completely infiltrated and subverted by the cartels.

00:35:07.960 So you need people that are uncorruptible, or at least uncorrupted by the cartels.

00:35:15.600 So like FBI, DEA, or whatever, even American Special Forces people to go down there to fight the war, help fight the war for them.

00:35:24.120 All right, I think that's a big story.

00:35:25.200 Well, it is a big story if you're in Mexico or in the United States.

00:35:29.260 Or, you know, El Mencho.

00:35:30.700 He was one of the biggest drug lords, drug barons, and now he's no more.

00:35:36.040 Is it good?

00:35:36.620 I mean, yes.

00:35:38.140 The problem is with this stuff, is that when somebody like this is taken out, it may just lead to loads more killings and violence and murders and things.

00:35:48.420 But just like any strong man, even if it's like Tito or Saddam, once they're gone, if they're dead, if they're killed, or just die of natural causes,

00:35:59.120 it could be that they were actually holding things together, as terrible and violent and repressive and everything as it is.

00:36:07.920 It was actually keeping the peace in various ways.

00:36:11.680 It's like when they got rid of Escobar, when they take El Chapo.

00:36:14.200 Then their organisation might fracture and go to civil war with itself and others, and loads more people die.

00:36:20.900 Is it for the best that the CJNG fractures up?

00:36:27.020 He might not fracture up.

00:36:27.920 He might be the second in command, whoever it is.

00:36:32.080 I was going to name some names, but I won't bother.

00:36:34.840 Whether it will just carry on exactly as is with a new guy at the top, or whether it will fracture up.

00:36:39.420 I still think it's for the best, right?

00:36:42.980 Ultimately, in the long, long, long term, because if you're going to ever defeat the cartels,

00:36:47.940 the first bit of that is to fracture it up.

00:36:51.760 If you're going to go to war with them, ultimately, and defeat them entirely,

00:36:55.240 and make Mexico a normal society again,

00:36:58.560 you'd have to start by breaking it up into pieces, and then stamp out all the individual pieces.

00:37:02.940 So, even though if it might lead to more human misery and death in the short term, or medium term,

00:37:10.380 if you're ever going to beat these cartels, it would have to start with stuff like this, wouldn't it?

00:37:15.500 I don't know.

00:37:17.440 Alright, I thought that was a very interesting, important story.

00:37:20.900 Let's move on, shall we?

00:37:23.180 What else have we got?

00:37:25.180 The ITV News.

00:37:27.560 Yeah, look, they mentioned there that El Mencho.

00:37:30.960 El Mencho's gone.

00:37:32.000 Yeah, reformed to announce visa freezes for some countries if deportees not accepted.

00:37:39.780 Yeah, good policy.

00:37:41.200 That should just be normal.

00:37:42.080 That should always have been the policy.

00:37:44.280 Always.

00:37:44.700 Well, you're not going to take back your criminals.

00:37:48.140 These people are your citizens, or at least until relatively recently were.

00:37:52.480 They've been convicted of serious crimes, and so by letter of the law, should be deported, and you're simply refusing to take them back.

00:38:01.180 And then we just do nothing at that stage.

00:38:04.940 At that stage, it's like, okay.

00:38:09.140 Yeah, it's the very least.

00:38:10.360 Again, it's pretty centrist, really.

00:38:11.800 That's a centrist position to me.

00:38:13.680 Just visa freezes?

00:38:15.480 Is that it?

00:38:16.340 Is that what we're going to do?

00:38:18.960 You should threaten them in various ways.

00:38:21.400 Not necessarily with a nuclear strike.

00:38:25.740 Nuclear strike.

00:38:28.720 I'm not talking about that, but...

00:38:33.440 Or any sort of military intervention, but just threaten them with more than just visa freezes.

00:38:40.000 Sort of, it's so limp, so weak-wristed.

00:38:44.060 And they're only doing that under duress, aren't they?

00:38:46.440 They're only saying that because they're being pushed by a restore.

00:38:51.720 Why are they only coming out with that policy now?

00:38:55.980 Okay.

00:38:57.120 The Sky News.

00:38:58.960 What have we got here?

00:39:00.100 Ukraine war has changed fundamentally, Commander says, as trench fighting fuses with the 21st century.

00:39:06.120 Yeah, I said that before, haven't I?

00:39:07.460 In the Ukraine, a lot of it is basically trench war and artillery exchanges.

00:39:14.340 Battery and counter-battery fire.

00:39:16.680 Exchanging artillery stuff a lot.

00:39:18.580 And, of course, the whole drone aspect to it.

00:39:21.800 And very, very bloody.

00:39:24.200 Very bloody.

00:39:25.800 Bring it to an end.

00:39:28.660 Bring it to an end.

00:39:30.560 It's easy for me to just sit here and say that, isn't it?

00:39:33.600 There you go.

00:39:34.500 Oh, look.

00:39:34.940 There's this crazy little boy that wanted to shotgun Trump, apparently, it seems.

00:39:39.340 This weirdo little freak thought he'd take it upon himself to just turn up at Mar-a-Lago.

00:39:46.240 He didn't live anywhere near Florida.

00:39:48.040 Apparently, he's been missing for a few days.

00:39:50.220 He just drove across country.

00:39:52.280 Bought a shotgun on the way.

00:39:53.480 Procured a jerry can of petrol, or whatever, on the way.

00:39:57.740 And just tried to get into Mar-a-Lago.

00:40:00.820 Mental.

00:40:01.900 Mental.

00:40:03.880 Well done, Democrats, for creating a generation of people like this.

00:40:07.720 That think Trump is like a wannabe king, or a Nazi, or something.

00:40:12.520 He's the most evil man ever.

00:40:14.160 And must be stopped.

00:40:17.100 Well done.

00:40:18.060 Well done.

00:40:18.360 Because this kid at 21 doesn't know any different, does he?

00:40:23.680 Trump's been around ever since he's ever sort of started paying attention to politics and the world, basically, wouldn't it?

00:40:28.920 Would be, wouldn't it?

00:40:32.020 Trump's been in and around the scene for, what, nine years now.

00:40:36.820 So he was 12 when that happened, when that began, roughly.

00:40:40.800 When Trump first came down the escalator in 2016.

00:40:45.380 So his whole life, he's been told Trump's evil.

00:40:48.980 And must be stopped at all costs.

00:40:52.460 So that narrative destroyed this boy's understanding of reality and got him killed by a cop, basically.

00:41:01.820 That's what that is.

00:41:02.620 That's what happened there.

00:41:04.260 Let's be honest.

00:41:05.340 Trump derangement syndrome killed that young man.

00:41:11.960 Unnecessarily.

00:41:13.380 Alright, let's have a look at the Daily Mail.

00:41:15.100 Well, a violinist, she got disabled after a 40 Pilates machine.

00:41:24.600 That's the top story, is it?

00:41:26.900 That's the top story.

00:41:27.660 Andrew would arrive late and only talk to young women when he was acting as trade envoy, annoying figures around the world.

00:41:34.900 Yeah, it seems like he was a lech, right?

00:41:39.320 An actual sex pest.

00:41:41.260 Does seem that way, doesn't it?

00:41:42.660 Not that he just had a bit of a predilection for ladies of the night.

00:41:50.440 Seems like it's more than that, doesn't it?

00:41:53.420 That he didn't have a few indiscretions.

00:41:56.560 There wasn't one or two dangerous liaisons over the years.

00:41:59.800 No, it's just a complete sex pest all the time.

00:42:01.500 Just all the time.

00:42:04.820 That's what it seems like, doesn't it?

00:42:06.260 That's the picture that's been painted, largely.

00:42:10.560 Alright, this is reasonably funny.

00:42:11.780 At the BAFTAs, apparently.

00:42:12.800 I haven't watched it.

00:42:13.720 Got no intention of watching it.

00:42:15.820 Host Alan Cummings.

00:42:16.880 He's looking old, isn't he?

00:42:17.760 Alan Cummings.

00:42:19.580 Oh, looking a bit old there.

00:42:21.180 Ow.

00:42:23.400 Alan Cummings apologises.

00:42:24.940 Oh, what happened there?

00:42:26.980 What happened there?

00:42:27.740 What happened there?

00:42:29.740 Alright, he apologises as famed I swear to RET sufferer.

00:42:34.860 I guess it's this guy.

00:42:36.580 Yells racial slurs during ceremony before leaving halfway through.

00:42:42.740 That sounds funny.

00:42:44.160 If there's a clip,

00:42:45.840 if there's just like a YouTube short,

00:42:48.420 or it's just on Twitter, a clip of that.

00:42:50.260 Of him screaming out racial slurs at the BAFTAs.

00:42:53.420 That'd be funny, wouldn't it?

00:42:56.000 Alright, let's have a look.

00:42:57.620 The Express.

00:42:58.020 Something about Fergie.

00:42:58.920 We don't care.

00:43:00.720 Alright.

00:43:02.320 Was there much?

00:43:04.040 Was there much?

00:43:04.980 Oh, look.

00:43:05.240 They're talking about net negative migration.

00:43:06.960 That was only the other day.

00:43:07.840 Literally.

00:43:08.620 Was it Thursday or Friday?

00:43:10.040 Zia Yusuf was talking about net zero migration.

00:43:13.700 I.e.

00:43:14.420 One in, one in, one out.

00:43:17.660 For every spade full of manure we get out of the country,

00:43:21.540 reform would let another spade full of manure come in.

00:43:24.240 Well, now he's pledging to have a net negative migration.

00:43:28.960 Huh.

00:43:30.260 Huh.

00:43:31.140 Yeah.

00:43:31.500 Net negative.

00:43:32.020 Why are you only coming out with that policy now?

00:43:36.820 Why are you only coming out with that policy now?

00:43:40.560 Because you're scared of restore, basically.

00:43:43.000 Reaper says millions must go.

00:43:44.640 Aim high, vote low.

00:43:45.600 Millions must go.

00:43:46.360 So, only coming out with that now, aren't they?

00:43:48.980 Because they realise that their own base are not particularly happy with net zero migration.

00:43:55.480 Net zero migration is no good, is it?

00:43:57.480 That locks in our demographic decline and replacement, doesn't it?

00:44:00.460 So, that's not good enough.

00:44:02.020 But that was your policy until yesterday or whatever.

00:44:04.460 Well, until this morning, in fact.

00:44:05.840 Now you're talking about net negative migration.

00:44:09.720 Okay, I mean, I'll take it.

00:44:11.160 If it moves the old Overton window to the right, I'll take it.

00:44:16.700 Not going to knock it, but it's just...

00:44:18.520 Why are you talking about that now, though?

00:44:20.460 And why do we need Zia Yusuf to be telling us this?

00:44:26.000 Zia Yusuf.

00:44:27.920 Look at his businesses and how they were run.

00:44:32.740 Alright, the sun.

00:44:33.640 Stiff upper lip.

00:44:35.800 Stiff upper lip, old boy.

00:44:37.420 I say.

00:44:43.960 They're a German family.

00:44:45.800 They're a German family.

00:44:47.080 Saxe-Coburgs.

00:44:52.000 Alright, there's been a fire.

00:44:54.300 Pretty much slop from...

00:44:55.640 From the sun today, as can be expected.

00:44:58.980 Was there any story that was of note?

00:45:01.060 Oh, vicious Vlad.

00:45:03.580 How Russia has hit Ukraine with more bombs than Hitler dropped on UK in World War II.

00:45:10.500 Well, there you go.

00:45:11.840 I mean, there's an easy way to stop that, isn't there?

00:45:14.780 Make a deal.

00:45:15.460 So, you've had four years, haven't you?

00:45:18.940 And untold billions to defeat them in the skies and on the ground.

00:45:25.700 And you've failed to do that.

00:45:27.520 So...

00:45:27.840 Make a deal.

00:45:30.960 Alright, let's jump across the pond to the New York Slimes.

00:45:37.920 Trump considers targeting...

00:45:39.920 Trump considers targeted strike against Iran, followed by larger attack.

00:45:47.220 Hmm, I wonder exactly what that means.

00:45:48.540 Negotiators plan to meet in Geneva for last-ditch talks to debate a new proposal as two aircraft carrier groups.

00:45:58.620 Okay.

00:46:00.000 Iran could direct proxies to attack US targets abroad, officials warn.

00:46:06.100 It's not de-escalation, is it?

00:46:07.460 In order to prevent some sort of war, at least in the skies, above Persia,

00:46:13.380 at this point we really need the Iranian regime to be sort of rolling over

00:46:19.180 and capitulating politically.

00:46:24.240 They're not doing that, are they?

00:46:26.640 Look, how Iran is preparing for war and planning for survival.

00:46:31.560 Hmm.

00:46:35.840 Okay.

00:46:36.540 Okay, if that's what you want.

00:46:37.460 You know, if that's what they want.

00:46:41.280 You are dealing with a much more powerful entity, though, aren't you, Iran?

00:46:46.820 That's the reality of it.

00:46:48.000 It's like the Russia-Ukraine thing.

00:46:50.980 It's not that I'm pro-Russian.

00:46:52.300 I'm not at all.

00:46:53.320 How many times do I have to say it?

00:46:55.420 That cabal of gangsters.

00:46:58.840 Ruthless gangsters in the Kremlin.

00:47:01.020 I'm not for them.

00:47:02.720 I'm not pro-them.

00:47:05.180 They are filth and scum.

00:47:06.960 I'm not...

00:47:07.460 Scum and villainy.

00:47:10.280 But the battlefield reality in the Donbass is what it is.

00:47:13.020 Same in the skies above Persia.

00:47:14.780 I'm not for...

00:47:15.920 The Joint Chiefs of Staff, particularly.

00:47:19.160 Iran would, if they don't want to get bombed, if they don't want to get bombed, if they don't want to get bombed, they need to sort of fall in line.

00:47:30.620 It doesn't look like they're going to, does it?

00:47:33.840 It doesn't look like they've got any intention of doing that at all.

00:47:36.760 Well, there it is.

00:47:40.220 Well, there it is.

00:47:41.420 It's like when you're dealing with someone that's just a one-on-one.

00:47:46.180 It's like someone who's insanely powerful, like Brock Lesnar.

00:47:53.280 Me and Brock Lesnar in a room, and Brock Lesnar's saying, you've got to do X, Y, Z, or say X, Y, Z.

00:48:00.140 And if you don't, I'm going to beat you up.

00:48:01.660 And me going, no, no.

00:48:02.720 Right, I'm going to start doing push-ups now.

00:48:04.320 No, I'm not having it.

00:48:05.980 What?

00:48:06.340 No, he can overpower me with ease.

00:48:12.380 With one hand.

00:48:14.460 I haven't really got a choice.

00:48:18.140 Not really.

00:48:19.580 Unless I want to get beaten up.

00:48:24.660 It's not fair, is it?

00:48:26.080 It's not fair.

00:48:27.120 I'm not saying it's fair.

00:48:28.100 I'm not arguing that.

00:48:29.560 I'm saying it is what it is.

00:48:31.340 Alright, well, alright.

00:48:32.200 Iran, Iran.

00:48:34.280 Alright.

00:48:34.720 Okay, the Washington Post.

00:48:37.900 Oh, they go with El Mencho.

00:48:39.620 Lovely.

00:48:40.340 Mexico's most powerful cartel leader is killed by security forces.

00:48:43.560 A US defence official said the operation that killed the head of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel

00:48:48.300 included participation from a joint US-Mexico task force

00:48:52.120 that works with the Mexican military through US Northern Command.

00:48:56.840 Yeah.

00:48:57.440 I believe this was the scene.

00:48:58.580 I don't know if El Mencho himself was actually on this bus here.

00:49:01.620 I'm not sure.

00:49:02.300 Details are only just emerging now.

00:49:03.700 But I have seen this burnt-out bus in a few different images.

00:49:10.140 Alright.

00:49:11.920 This is a bit of an odd one.

00:49:13.240 Trump's talk of sending a hospital ship to Greenland puzzles leaders.

00:49:18.680 The President has said he's sending a ship to care for Greenland's sick.

00:49:23.500 But the Territory doesn't want the help.

00:49:25.900 And the US appears to have no hospital ships available to send.

00:49:28.900 And then there's a big picture of a hospital ship.

00:49:32.440 Bit weird, isn't it?

00:49:34.420 Well, interesting.

00:49:35.660 There'll be more details about that, won't there?

00:49:37.560 What Trump was really talking about.

00:49:39.700 And what spin the Washington Post has put on that whole thing there.

00:49:42.480 You know when you read a story?

00:49:46.900 And you just know that it's spin.

00:49:49.280 There's more to it.

00:49:50.040 It doesn't sort of make sense.

00:49:51.300 It doesn't entirely add up.

00:49:54.060 Because it's been spun so much.

00:49:57.200 That's what that one feels like to me.

00:49:59.360 Okay.

00:49:59.920 Let's go over to Down Under.

00:50:02.640 How good?

00:50:03.380 Oh, yeah?

00:50:04.420 Oh, go for your wife, mate.

00:50:07.900 Digging to Alan's long history of attacking journalists.

00:50:10.240 Oh, they're saying this politician is extremely rude to journalists.

00:50:14.860 She is an insane Karen, isn't she?

00:50:16.520 Obviously.

00:50:17.500 Those sorts of glasses, those sorts of frames are always a giveaway, aren't they?

00:50:21.520 Always a giveaway.

00:50:23.880 This guy, New South Wales Educational Authority,

00:50:27.260 investigates a Western Sydney Islamic school after a director's Hamas video.

00:50:32.600 Yeah, it's an Islamic school.

00:50:34.220 Yeah.

00:50:36.620 These people surprised.

00:50:37.460 Oh, there was terrorism or whatever,

00:50:40.740 or terrorism-adjacent apologetics coming out of a mosque,

00:50:44.380 or an Islamic school, or an Islamic bookshop,

00:50:46.840 or an Islamic centre.

00:50:48.260 Oh, that's a surprise.

00:50:50.440 No, it's not.

00:50:51.480 A board director at one of Australia's largest Islamic schools

00:50:54.780 has resigned amid ongoing calls for the federal government

00:50:57.920 to launch its own investigation

00:50:59.120 after he posted a video of armed Hamas terrorists online

00:51:02.280 overlaid with an Arabic prayer for victory.

00:51:05.580 Yeah, yeah.

00:51:06.900 Yeah.

00:51:07.300 All right.

00:51:10.180 What else have we got?

00:51:10.960 There wasn't much in Japan or China.

00:51:15.660 Well, this one.

00:51:17.080 Xi congratulates Kim, Kim Jong-un, the leader of North Korea,

00:51:21.580 on election as General Secretary of Workers' Party of Korea.

00:51:25.640 Yeah, he was elected.

00:51:26.600 Yeah, sure he was.

00:51:27.440 Sure he was.

00:51:31.220 All right, the Rooskies.

00:51:31.880 What are the Rooskies talking about today?

00:51:33.500 We're getting towards the top of the hour.

00:51:34.840 EU fails to get US and G7 support for blocking Russian oil suppliers.

00:51:41.300 This is quite interesting.

00:51:42.900 Epstein files expose those who invented myths about Russia,

00:51:46.720 says Russian diplomat.

00:51:47.900 Let's have a super quick read of this, shall we?

00:51:49.980 Russian Foreign Ministry's official spokeswoman, Maria Zakharova,

00:51:56.360 recalled numerous accusations against Russia,

00:51:59.060 adding that the country came up with arguments and facts to refute them.

00:52:03.620 Then she says,

00:52:06.020 the Epstein files have shed light on the, quote,

00:52:09.200 heinous scum, quote,

00:52:11.360 who were being inventing myths about Russia for many years

00:52:20.120 to divert attention from their own crimes,

00:52:22.940 the Russian Foreign Ministry's official spokeswoman, Maria Zakharova,

00:52:27.180 told TASS in an interview.

00:52:29.240 She recalled numerous accusations against Russia,

00:52:31.520 adding that the country came up with arguments and facts to refute them.

00:52:34.600 And then this is her word.

00:52:35.420 She says,

00:52:36.220 they have been concocting myths about Russia.

00:52:38.360 Who's they?

00:52:41.840 Name them.

00:52:44.220 They have been concocting myths about Russia,

00:52:47.320 about the alleged threat,

00:52:48.340 about crimes that we, as they claimed,

00:52:50.580 allegedly committed on their territory.

00:52:52.180 Meanwhile, for so many years,

00:52:53.940 all this scum was nesting right inside their communities,

00:52:56.840 right at the heart of them,

00:52:58.040 in the most luxurious districts of New York, London,

00:53:01.480 and other European capitals,

00:53:02.940 and in the United States of America, she said.

00:53:05.540 Now that the Epstein files were published,

00:53:07.480 it turns out that the real criminals, real ghouls,

00:53:10.420 were comfortable inside the Western societies.

00:53:12.980 They were involved in all sorts of heinous crimes,

00:53:14.660 corruption, human trafficking,

00:53:16.300 false prostitution,

00:53:17.200 false imprisonment,

00:53:17.920 and paedophilia,

00:53:18.640 you name it.

00:53:21.260 What, like Les Wexner?

00:53:24.080 What, like Larry Summers?

00:53:29.340 Controlled by Ehud Barak?

00:53:30.660 Or whoever.

00:53:40.780 The Germans,

00:53:42.140 the Germans,

00:53:43.320 there wasn't actually that much in the German post,

00:53:45.400 or the French,

00:53:46.080 Le Monde keeps going with stories about their local,

00:53:49.040 some local elections they've got coming up,

00:53:51.000 in Paris,

00:53:52.100 Marseille,

00:53:52.500 and Lyon,

00:53:52.940 but we don't really care all that much about that,

00:53:54.940 do we?

00:53:55.620 Shall we have a look at Space News?

00:53:57.220 Was there any Space News?

00:53:58.760 There was one or two bits.

00:53:59.760 They're still,

00:54:00.380 still prepping Artemis 2.

00:54:03.320 There we go.

00:54:04.580 If you believe,

00:54:06.520 that space is real,

00:54:08.900 this is going to slingshot around the moon,

00:54:11.200 and come back,

00:54:11.720 well,

00:54:12.120 that little bit at the top,

00:54:13.820 will slingshot around the moon,

00:54:15.160 with people in it,

00:54:15.880 four people,

00:54:16.680 and come back,

00:54:17.700 next month.

00:54:18.800 That's going to happen.

00:54:19.860 If you believe it,

00:54:20.680 if you're,

00:54:21.020 if you're credulous enough to believe that space is real.

00:54:25.800 All right,

00:54:26.180 let's have a look at On This Day in History.

00:54:27.920 I like that.

00:54:28.760 You guys seem to like that little segment,

00:54:30.280 right at the end of the,

00:54:31.060 of the show.

00:54:32.020 All right,

00:54:32.280 what happened on this day,

00:54:33.120 the 23rd of February?

00:54:34.800 On this day in 1455,

00:54:38.080 is it this one?

00:54:39.240 Yep,

00:54:39.580 sorry,

00:54:39.780 we got it right.

00:54:40.120 Okay,

00:54:40.560 On this day in 1455,

00:54:42.000 Johannes Gutenberg,

00:54:42.960 Prince the First Bible,

00:54:44.200 is an estimated date,

00:54:45.260 we're told there.

00:54:46.280 Yeah,

00:54:46.500 so that's a massive thing,

00:54:47.260 massive turning point in all of human history,

00:54:48.720 really,

00:54:49.120 isn't it?

00:54:49.380 The,

00:54:49.540 the printing press.

00:54:53.360 It begun the trend away from most people being illiterate,

00:54:57.360 the vast majority of people being illiterate,

00:54:59.960 to,

00:55:01.160 at least in,

00:55:02.500 civilized,

00:55:04.440 first world countries,

00:55:06.220 most people being illiterate,

00:55:07.720 when it starts that.

00:55:08.680 And the explosion of ideas as well.

00:55:12.760 The,

00:55:12.920 the,

00:55:13.100 the concepts and ideas,

00:55:14.940 weren't the,

00:55:15.640 the sole,

00:55:16.660 reserve of the literate.

00:55:20.420 Anyone could have an idea,

00:55:22.360 or thought,

00:55:23.680 or,

00:55:24.500 dream up a piece of fiction,

00:55:26.280 write it down,

00:55:26.980 and it get printed,

00:55:27.780 and many,

00:55:28.280 many,

00:55:28.480 many,

00:55:28.700 many other people might see it,

00:55:29.940 or read it.

00:55:32.040 Or a different world,

00:55:34.060 that created the printing press.

00:55:38.540 The Gutenberg Bible.

00:55:39.580 Okay,

00:55:40.580 in,

00:55:41.240 on this day in 1540,

00:55:43.760 Francisco Coronado's expedition,

00:55:46.540 set off for Mexico,

00:55:47.800 in search of the seven cities of gold.

00:55:49.720 The cities of gold.

00:55:52.340 Anyone's British,

00:55:53.200 and of a certain age,

00:55:54.020 they'll know that,

00:55:55.360 that song.

00:55:56.940 Cities of gold.

00:55:58.820 Great kids show,

00:55:59.700 from the 80s.

00:56:00.560 All right.

00:56:01.500 Fascinating guy though.

00:56:02.580 He was one,

00:56:03.360 they went up into Mexico,

00:56:05.880 you know,

00:56:06.100 from the Caribbean,

00:56:06.580 and then upwards,

00:56:07.600 northwards,

00:56:08.140 into the southern United States.

00:56:10.340 What later becomes,

00:56:11.680 the southern United States.

00:56:13.200 He was the first person,

00:56:15.080 with European eyeballs,

00:56:17.200 to ever see,

00:56:18.960 the Colorado River,

00:56:19.820 and the Grand Canyon.

00:56:22.360 Interesting,

00:56:22.940 isn't it?

00:56:23.160 Fascinating.

00:56:25.280 You know,

00:56:26.120 I,

00:56:27.000 at the time,

00:56:27.760 it was considered,

00:56:28.420 a complete failure,

00:56:29.200 because you were supposed to,

00:56:30.100 there was talk,

00:56:31.080 there was rumblings,

00:56:32.720 of cities of gold up there.

00:56:34.480 Endless gold.

00:56:35.320 He didn't find it,

00:56:35.900 he just found,

00:56:36.440 sort of,

00:56:36.880 small villages,

00:56:37.680 of indigenous,

00:56:38.940 Indian folk.

00:56:41.260 And no,

00:56:41.960 not really any gold.

00:56:43.140 Hardly any gold.

00:56:43.980 Certainly not,

00:56:44.540 cities of gold.

00:56:46.760 And like,

00:56:47.280 what's the Colorado River worth?

00:56:49.360 What's the Grand Canyon worth?

00:56:50.760 Well today,

00:56:51.300 of course,

00:56:51.600 it's considered,

00:56:52.780 one of the greatest,

00:56:54.360 geological marvels,

00:56:55.600 of the world,

00:56:56.040 isn't it?

00:56:56.240 The Grand Canyon.

00:56:56.960 I'd love to go there,

00:56:57.580 it's on my bucket list.

00:56:58.680 I'd love to kayak,

00:56:59.360 down the Grand Canyon.

00:57:00.460 I'm not even a kayaker.

00:57:01.600 But I'd love to do that,

00:57:02.460 or just,

00:57:03.120 or just hike,

00:57:04.720 down the Grand Canyon.

00:57:05.440 That'd be amazing.

00:57:06.600 I'd love to do that.

00:57:07.960 But at the time,

00:57:09.060 that was worthless.

00:57:11.560 Doesn't pay you for ships and men,

00:57:13.220 does it?

00:57:14.140 Discovering the Grand Canyon.

00:57:15.840 Alright,

00:57:16.100 there you go.

00:57:17.300 The Alamo.

00:57:17.740 Remember the Alamo.

00:57:19.200 On this day in 1836,

00:57:20.600 the Alamo is besieged

00:57:21.460 for 13 days

00:57:22.280 until the 6th of March

00:57:23.180 by the Mexican army

00:57:24.480 under General Santa Anna.

00:57:26.180 The entire garrison

00:57:26.960 is eventually killed.

00:57:28.000 I have got,

00:57:29.240 I have got,

00:57:30.520 a whole long form

00:57:31.520 bit of content,

00:57:32.640 Harry.

00:57:35.440 I have got a whole

00:57:38.660 long form bit of content

00:57:39.580 all about the siege

00:57:40.820 at the Alamo

00:57:41.380 on Epochs

00:57:42.040 behind the paywall.

00:57:43.180 Do consider

00:57:43.620 becoming a member

00:57:45.360 for as little as

00:57:45.860 £5 a month,

00:57:46.520 bronze team member

00:57:47.040 on otosegles.com

00:57:47.880 where you can listen

00:57:49.600 to that

00:57:49.960 if you want me

00:57:51.060 and Carl

00:57:51.520 talking about

00:57:52.020 the Alamo

00:57:52.440 for like an hour

00:57:53.100 and a half

00:57:53.420 or something.

00:57:55.380 Brilliant,

00:57:55.900 classic story.

00:57:56.880 Amazing stuff.

00:57:59.300 David Crockett

00:57:59.900 and all that.

00:58:04.160 It's just a great story.

00:58:05.180 It's just an incredible story.

00:58:06.480 Santa Anna

00:58:07.040 is a very,

00:58:07.620 very interesting

00:58:08.140 person as well.

00:58:10.260 Very,

00:58:10.560 very interesting.

00:58:12.400 Alright,

00:58:13.080 what else we got?

00:58:13.860 On this day

00:58:14.760 in 1904

00:58:15.460 US acquires

00:58:16.140 control of

00:58:16.660 Panama Canal Zone

00:58:17.680 for 10 million bucks.

00:58:19.340 A steal,

00:58:19.900 really.

00:58:22.520 What is that?

00:58:23.400 Under,

00:58:24.100 what would it be?

00:58:24.980 Would it be

00:58:25.400 Roosevelt,

00:58:27.980 Teddy Roosevelt,

00:58:28.720 is it?

00:58:29.400 Or is it Taft?

00:58:31.560 I think it's

00:58:32.200 Teddy Roosevelt.

00:58:33.500 Yeah,

00:58:33.800 a steal.

00:58:34.080 and then

00:58:36.480 later,

00:58:36.920 many,

00:58:37.160 many years later

00:58:37.800 when they

00:58:39.220 want the

00:58:40.560 people of Panama

00:58:41.580 wanted to take it back.

00:58:43.060 America's like,

00:58:43.560 no,

00:58:43.740 we're not allowed,

00:58:44.220 we're not going to have that.

00:58:46.060 What,

00:58:46.300 under Reagan is it?

00:58:47.520 No,

00:58:47.740 we'll go to war

00:58:48.300 over it if anything.

00:58:50.320 On this day

00:58:51.120 in 1945

00:58:51.680 US Marines

00:58:52.360 raised the flag

00:58:53.140 of the United States

00:58:54.160 on top of

00:58:55.680 Mount Surabachi

00:58:56.480 in Iwo Jima.

00:58:57.260 Talked about that

00:58:57.680 the other day,

00:58:58.120 didn't we?

00:58:58.900 The actual picture.

00:59:00.400 The Pulitzer Prize

00:59:01.300 winning photo

00:59:02.060 by Joe Rosenthal

00:59:03.320 later becomes iconic

00:59:04.660 inspiring the

00:59:05.980 Marine Corps

00:59:06.660 War Memorial

00:59:07.400 sculpture.

00:59:08.040 Yeah,

00:59:08.200 there's a sculpture

00:59:08.700 isn't there?

00:59:11.740 Okay.

00:59:13.380 Alright.

00:59:15.000 One last thing

00:59:15.640 should we say

00:59:16.020 or two last things

00:59:16.700 in 1954

00:59:17.300 first mass inoculation

00:59:19.080 against polio

00:59:19.960 with the

00:59:20.740 Jonas Salk

00:59:21.500 vaccine

00:59:22.600 takes place

00:59:24.080 at Arsenal

00:59:24.980 Elementary School

00:59:26.000 in Pittsburgh,

00:59:26.740 Pennsylvania.

00:59:27.700 There's an image

00:59:28.160 of that.

00:59:30.400 Yeah,

00:59:30.660 polio

00:59:31.040 was bad.

00:59:32.820 It's worth

00:59:33.360 having a tiny

00:59:34.000 little dot

00:59:34.700 of scar tissue

00:59:35.580 on your arm

00:59:36.160 isn't it

00:59:36.580 as a kid

00:59:37.440 to not suffer

00:59:38.420 from polio.

00:59:40.680 I know it's

00:59:40.960 terrible.

00:59:43.300 Okay,

00:59:43.600 and on this day

00:59:44.100 in 1998

00:59:44.860 Osama Bin Laden

00:59:46.000 publishes a

00:59:46.740 fatwa declaring

00:59:47.700 jihad against

00:59:48.360 all Jews

00:59:49.000 and crusaders.

00:59:51.260 There you go.

00:59:52.020 If you believe

00:59:52.760 that,

00:59:53.420 if you don't think

00:59:54.060 Osama Bin Laden

00:59:54.840 is basically a fiction

00:59:55.860 as some people

00:59:56.580 seem to

00:59:57.220 for some reason,

00:59:59.200 he's a cutout,

01:00:00.500 a phantom.

01:00:01.100 I don't believe

01:00:04.060 that by the way.

01:00:05.560 Alright,

01:00:06.240 that's the show.

01:00:07.060 Let's have a quick

01:00:07.560 look at the

01:00:08.200 Super Chats

01:00:09.740 and Rumble Rants.

01:00:10.800 What have we got

01:00:11.360 this morning?

01:00:12.320 On Rumble Rants,

01:00:13.220 Kalergi says,

01:00:14.380 something,

01:00:14.840 something threat

01:00:15.560 Iran.

01:00:16.540 Yeah,

01:00:16.920 says the

01:00:17.320 mainstream media.

01:00:18.860 Yeah.

01:00:21.280 Yeah,

01:00:21.680 they've got to

01:00:21.980 drum up support

01:00:22.580 for it,

01:00:22.920 don't they?

01:00:25.720 Kalergi also says,

01:00:27.400 Zelensky,

01:00:28.360 quote,

01:00:28.580 Putin has started

01:00:29.960 World War Charlie.

01:00:31.800 Deep snort.

01:00:39.100 Yeah,

01:00:40.000 I mean,

01:00:41.540 yeah.

01:00:42.820 That's what the

01:00:43.460 mainstream media news

01:00:44.480 do,

01:00:45.120 isn't it?

01:00:45.540 They offer you

01:00:47.520 narratives,

01:00:48.280 don't they?

01:00:49.300 It's never a value

01:00:50.280 free,

01:00:51.580 just,

01:00:52.420 here's the facts.

01:00:54.360 It's hardly ever

01:00:55.260 that,

01:00:55.660 is it?

01:00:55.940 One way or

01:00:57.320 another,

01:00:57.780 it's always

01:00:58.280 spin.

01:00:58.820 I mean,

01:00:58.980 it's difficult

01:00:59.300 to avoid

01:00:59.960 entirely,

01:01:03.380 to have

01:01:03.620 true,

01:01:04.080 true,

01:01:04.300 true value

01:01:04.900 free,

01:01:05.320 to strip down

01:01:06.500 facts and

01:01:06.840 nothing else.

01:01:07.920 Because again,

01:01:08.380 it's always an

01:01:09.180 exercise in what

01:01:10.100 do you leave

01:01:10.620 out?

01:01:11.680 You're always

01:01:11.980 going to have

01:01:12.240 to leave out

01:01:12.640 some things,

01:01:13.400 aren't you?

01:01:14.480 Especially if

01:01:14.880 you're just

01:01:15.120 dealing in

01:01:15.700 soundbite

01:01:16.400 headlines and

01:01:17.300 stuff,

01:01:17.680 but nonetheless,

01:01:21.020 nonetheless,

01:01:22.360 it's a form of

01:01:23.020 propaganda in one

01:01:23.720 way or another.

01:01:24.200 As am I,

01:01:25.600 as am this,

01:01:26.220 right?

01:01:26.420 I'm not claiming

01:01:27.020 to be value free,

01:01:27.660 I'm not claiming

01:01:28.160 I'm not,

01:01:28.820 I've got my

01:01:29.400 biases,

01:01:30.640 of course I

01:01:31.340 have.

01:01:32.480 At least I'm

01:01:33.420 not pretending

01:01:34.020 to you that I

01:01:34.560 don't.

01:01:35.260 I would never

01:01:35.720 claim that.

01:01:39.760 You know the

01:01:40.380 deal,

01:01:41.620 you know the

01:01:42.040 deal.

01:01:43.060 We're right of

01:01:43.500 centre here at

01:01:44.240 the Lotus

01:01:46.200 Seas Breakfast

01:01:46.660 Club,

01:01:47.240 hashtag

01:01:47.480 rule LBC.

01:01:49.000 We're right of

01:01:49.300 centre,

01:01:49.640 make no bones

01:01:50.140 about it.

01:01:51.480 Okay,

01:01:52.040 the YouTube

01:01:54.200 Jankus

01:02:00.980 the Great

01:02:01.900 says,

01:02:04.060 good morning

01:02:04.440 from America.

01:02:05.180 Good morning,

01:02:05.860 thank you for

01:02:06.240 the money,

01:02:06.720 thank you for

01:02:06.980 the little bit

01:02:07.240 of money there.

01:02:08.460 Global Church

01:02:09.120 History says,

01:02:10.100 on this day

01:02:10.600 in 939,

01:02:11.620 Diocletian began

01:02:12.460 his prosecution.

01:02:13.680 Ah,

01:02:14.160 Diocletian,

01:02:15.340 one of my

01:02:15.820 all-time favourites,

01:02:17.460 one of the

01:02:17.720 greatest emperors

01:02:18.500 of all time,

01:02:19.120 in my opinion,

01:02:19.660 late antiquity,

01:02:21.260 the Tetrarchy,

01:02:21.920 the rule of four

01:02:22.640 emperors.

01:02:23.080 Oh,

01:02:23.480 I could go on

01:02:23.920 and on about

01:02:24.340 Diocletian.

01:02:25.860 Oh,

01:02:26.240 don't get me

01:02:26.600 started about

01:02:27.000 Diocletian.

01:02:27.520 Honestly,

01:02:28.660 I've got to do

01:02:29.360 content about

01:02:30.000 Diocletian.

01:02:30.420 I was going to

01:02:30.720 do a documentary

01:02:31.480 for Lotus

01:02:32.000 Eaters,

01:02:32.740 and my first

01:02:33.260 thought was

01:02:33.600 Diocletian.

01:02:34.920 I'm going to

01:02:35.160 do it in the

01:02:35.560 age,

01:02:36.900 okay,

01:02:37.380 Diocletian.

01:02:38.800 Look it up in

01:02:39.400 your own time,

01:02:39.920 this isn't a

01:02:40.260 history show,

01:02:40.740 can't go into it

01:02:41.260 here.

01:02:41.400 Okay,

01:02:42.400 but thanks for

01:02:43.420 that global

01:02:43.760 church history.

01:02:45.200 Diocletian

01:02:45.640 mentioned.

01:02:48.000 All right.

01:02:49.360 Liam Sexton

01:02:50.060 says,

01:02:50.780 greetings from

01:02:52.000 midnight semi-sober

01:02:53.400 in the Pacific

01:02:54.120 Northwest of

01:02:55.080 America.

01:02:55.540 Oh,

01:02:57.160 nice,

01:02:57.540 great,

01:02:57.960 Pacific Northwest.

01:02:59.100 So what in

01:02:59.600 Oregon or

01:03:01.080 Washington State?

01:03:02.920 I was watching

01:03:03.580 loads of Twin

01:03:04.160 Peaks over the

01:03:04.800 weekend,

01:03:05.680 set in Washington

01:03:06.340 State,

01:03:06.720 right up on the

01:03:07.180 Canadian border.

01:03:08.020 lovely bit of

01:03:11.080 the world,

01:03:11.620 lovely bit of

01:03:12.080 the world.

01:03:12.280 I've visited

01:03:12.620 Oregon before.

01:03:16.140 Lovely,

01:03:16.820 the forests up

01:03:17.620 there,

01:03:17.880 the mountains and

01:03:18.540 forests.

01:03:20.500 I'd love to

01:03:21.140 live there.

01:03:21.380 If I had

01:03:21.700 endless money,

01:03:23.260 I'd have a big

01:03:24.680 mansion in

01:03:25.260 England,

01:03:26.240 in the home

01:03:26.680 counties somewhere,

01:03:27.440 and that would

01:03:27.680 be my residence.

01:03:28.420 But I'd probably

01:03:28.820 go on holiday to

01:03:29.600 the Pacific

01:03:30.040 Northwest a lot.

01:03:31.900 Love it there,

01:03:32.800 feel at home

01:03:33.440 there.

01:03:33.740 I love the

01:03:34.800 mountains and

01:03:35.740 the forests and

01:03:36.640 everything there,

01:03:37.120 but okay,

01:03:37.640 all right.

01:03:38.020 Yeah,

01:03:39.820 greetings to

01:03:40.340 you too.

01:03:41.660 44 Magnum

01:03:42.660 Norse says,

01:03:44.160 the UK should

01:03:45.340 care about

01:03:45.860 getting the

01:03:46.500 rape problem

01:03:47.000 under control.

01:03:47.640 Yeah,

01:03:48.180 and I'm not

01:03:48.840 talking about

01:03:49.400 letting

01:03:49.740 collaborators go.

01:03:50.920 Right,

01:03:51.160 yeah,

01:03:51.280 no,

01:03:51.400 I agree with

01:03:51.780 you.

01:03:52.080 I couldn't

01:03:52.400 agree more.

01:03:53.700 Yes,

01:03:53.940 we should.

01:03:54.920 Some of us

01:03:55.320 are trying.

01:03:56.100 Some of us

01:03:56.440 do talk about

01:03:57.060 it a lot.

01:04:00.080 Yeah.

01:04:03.140 44 Magnum

01:04:03.980 Norse again

01:04:04.440 says,

01:04:05.640 I don't like

01:04:06.340 Queen Eve,

01:04:07.120 sorry,

01:04:07.380 don't like

01:04:08.060 her.

01:04:09.320 Fair enough.

01:04:09.900 You don't

01:04:10.100 have to.

01:04:11.640 Yeah,

01:04:11.920 no,

01:04:12.280 that's fine.

01:04:16.020 Same person

01:04:16.660 again says,

01:04:17.840 the only job

01:04:18.540 of rulers

01:04:19.060 who rule

01:04:19.560 over us

01:04:20.140 is not to

01:04:20.940 be an a-hole.

01:04:22.340 You've put

01:04:22.620 the full word

01:04:23.080 there.

01:04:23.740 To not be

01:04:24.100 an a-hole.

01:04:25.120 Call me

01:04:25.460 crazy.

01:04:25.780 No,

01:04:26.060 I won't

01:04:26.300 call you

01:04:26.540 crazy.

01:04:27.140 No,

01:04:27.400 because that's

01:04:27.840 a perfectly

01:04:28.300 reasonable

01:04:28.740 take.

01:04:30.060 Yeah,

01:04:30.720 as I said

01:04:31.740 earlier,

01:04:32.180 the royal

01:04:32.440 family,

01:04:32.880 particularly,

01:04:33.220 it's their

01:04:33.420 only job

01:04:34.020 is to

01:04:35.280 just live

01:04:36.840 within the

01:04:37.500 law and

01:04:39.080 not be

01:04:39.820 involved in

01:04:40.320 scandals.

01:04:42.320 It's the

01:04:42.920 only job,

01:04:43.620 really.

01:04:45.820 It's the

01:04:46.440 only thing

01:04:47.000 that's required

01:04:47.700 of you,

01:04:48.380 ultimately.

01:04:49.820 Global

01:04:50.140 Church History

01:04:50.620 says,

01:04:51.600 should

01:04:51.920 Queen Elizabeth

01:04:52.360 II have

01:04:53.140 dissolved

01:04:53.760 a failed

01:04:55.220 parliament?

01:04:56.120 Well,

01:04:56.460 to be fair,

01:04:57.260 she actually

01:04:57.580 couldn't.

01:04:58.180 I don't

01:04:58.360 think,

01:04:59.600 I mean,

01:04:59.860 technically,

01:05:00.680 legally,

01:05:01.360 she's got

01:05:01.940 the power,

01:05:02.380 would have

01:05:02.620 had the

01:05:02.920 power to,

01:05:03.400 but I

01:05:03.580 don't think

01:05:04.160 she could

01:05:06.500 have really.

01:05:07.020 I mean,

01:05:07.300 in the age

01:05:07.760 of Victoria

01:05:09.160 in the

01:05:09.480 19th

01:05:09.960 century,

01:05:12.000 so a

01:05:12.240 long time,

01:05:13.180 over 100

01:05:13.820 years before

01:05:14.300 her even,

01:05:16.940 whenever the

01:05:17.620 Queen,

01:05:17.920 Queen Victoria

01:05:18.460 this is,

01:05:19.260 tried to get

01:05:19.760 involved in

01:05:20.220 politics,

01:05:20.620 in any

01:05:20.920 real way,

01:05:21.800 any way,

01:05:22.820 like trying

01:05:23.100 to influence

01:05:23.400 policy at

01:05:24.180 all,

01:05:24.960 it was like

01:05:25.520 a constitutional

01:05:26.180 crisis and

01:05:26.900 stuff,

01:05:27.160 so I'm not

01:05:28.280 sure if the

01:05:28.580 monarch these

01:05:29.020 days,

01:05:30.960 unless they

01:05:31.680 had spent a

01:05:32.500 lot of time

01:05:32.880 building up a

01:05:33.500 whole political

01:05:34.020 faction and

01:05:34.700 party around

01:05:35.420 themselves,

01:05:35.960 then maybe,

01:05:36.580 but they

01:05:37.640 just came out

01:05:38.100 of nowhere,

01:05:39.220 like Queen

01:05:39.440 Elizabeth II

01:05:39.980 or King

01:05:40.320 Charles III

01:05:40.840 now,

01:05:41.920 just walked

01:05:43.460 into the

01:05:44.040 commons,

01:05:44.580 Charles I

01:05:45.140 style,

01:05:46.000 just walked

01:05:46.520 in there,

01:05:47.420 asked the

01:05:47.820 Speaker to

01:05:48.260 step aside,

01:05:49.180 sat in the

01:05:49.560 Speaker's

01:05:49.900 chair and

01:05:50.240 said I'm

01:05:50.660 dissolving

01:05:50.980 Parliament,

01:05:51.380 I don't

01:05:51.640 think that

01:05:51.900 would fly,

01:05:52.360 I don't

01:05:52.520 think that

01:05:52.760 would work,

01:05:53.860 I think

01:05:54.160 it would

01:05:54.400 be a massive

01:05:55.580 uproar because,

01:05:57.400 well,

01:05:57.720 because we

01:05:58.120 had a civil

01:05:58.500 war about

01:05:58.880 exactly that,

01:05:59.540 didn't we?

01:05:59.880 whether the

01:06:02.640 king's prerogative

01:06:03.920 extends that

01:06:04.620 far,

01:06:05.700 is Parliament

01:06:06.780 sovereign?

01:06:07.900 What is the

01:06:08.480 body that is

01:06:09.800 ultimately

01:06:10.280 sovereign?

01:06:10.800 Is it the

01:06:11.440 commons,

01:06:12.140 is it

01:06:12.360 Parliament,

01:06:13.140 or is it

01:06:13.500 the person

01:06:14.040 of the

01:06:14.340 sovereign?

01:06:14.620 Well,

01:06:14.800 we had a

01:06:15.140 civil war

01:06:15.460 about that,

01:06:15.780 didn't we?

01:06:17.620 Alright,

01:06:18.100 interesting

01:06:18.400 question nonetheless.

01:06:20.140 Luke Stewart

01:06:20.540 says,

01:06:20.860 G'day Bo,

01:06:21.420 apparently someone

01:06:22.060 tried to take

01:06:22.760 another shot of

01:06:23.360 Trump,

01:06:23.660 yeah,

01:06:23.800 I think he

01:06:24.680 only needs

01:06:25.300 one more

01:06:25.840 to get a

01:06:26.260 free coffee,

01:06:27.740 and did you

01:06:28.160 get to watch

01:06:29.740 the clip of

01:06:31.160 the winter

01:06:31.700 Olympian

01:06:32.500 Stephen Bradley?

01:06:33.340 No,

01:06:33.860 do you know

01:06:34.060 what,

01:06:34.320 okay,

01:06:34.520 I promise

01:06:34.940 you,

01:06:35.500 straight after

01:06:36.000 this,

01:06:36.380 Harry remind

01:06:37.020 me of this

01:06:37.440 as well,

01:06:38.220 I'll watch

01:06:38.700 it today,

01:06:39.900 because I

01:06:40.180 said I

01:06:40.460 would and

01:06:40.720 I haven't,

01:06:41.740 I had all

01:06:42.120 weekend soon,

01:06:42.640 didn't I?

01:06:43.000 It went out

01:06:43.400 of my mind,

01:06:43.840 I'm sorry,

01:06:44.420 I will do

01:06:45.040 though,

01:06:45.660 and yeah,

01:06:46.460 Trump will get

01:06:47.520 the toaster oven,

01:06:48.340 one more

01:06:48.780 assassination attempt

01:06:49.660 and he wins

01:06:50.020 the toaster oven,

01:06:50.980 yeah,

01:06:51.860 it's not funny

01:06:52.380 really,

01:06:52.600 Luke Stewart

01:06:53.940 says,

01:06:55.420 look,

01:06:55.840 I think the

01:06:56.620 French were

01:06:58.160 half right

01:06:58.740 with the

01:06:59.140 monarchy,

01:06:59.840 just don't

01:07:00.520 get rid of

01:07:01.100 all of them,

01:07:02.840 you just

01:07:03.920 prune the

01:07:04.500 bad ones,

01:07:06.040 fair enough,

01:07:09.220 I mean,

01:07:09.500 they did get

01:07:10.020 rid of them

01:07:10.420 entirely,

01:07:10.860 didn't they?

01:07:11.760 Although they

01:07:12.120 had a restoration,

01:07:12.800 they had a

01:07:13.140 Bourbon restoration,

01:07:14.140 didn't they?

01:07:15.780 After Napoleon,

01:07:19.200 anyway,

01:07:19.920 okay,

01:07:20.200 yeah,

01:07:20.360 long story,

01:07:21.060 got all sorts

01:07:21.440 of long form

01:07:21.840 content,

01:07:22.600 about Napoleon

01:07:25.180 and the

01:07:26.260 Bourbon restoration,

01:07:29.620 check it out,

01:07:30.560 Epochs,

01:07:31.420 £5 a month,

01:07:33.020 front tier member,

01:07:34.000 loadtoseaters.com,

01:07:36.360 same person,

01:07:36.940 Luke Stewart says,

01:07:38.100 for even more money,

01:07:39.080 thank you for that one,

01:07:40.800 ask someone with

01:07:41.720 autism,

01:07:42.840 ask someone with

01:07:44.740 autism a

01:07:45.500 special need,

01:07:46.800 maybe you're saying,

01:07:48.100 okay,

01:07:48.340 I think the reason

01:07:50.000 we're on the rise

01:07:50.920 is because we've

01:07:52.000 got rid of a lot

01:07:52.700 of the low-skilled

01:07:53.600 jobs that our

01:07:54.640 parents and

01:07:55.020 grandparents did,

01:07:55.900 like factory work,

01:07:58.500 we're society's

01:07:59.980 mine canaries,

01:08:01.680 okay,

01:08:02.020 I see what you

01:08:02.340 mean,

01:08:04.420 you see,

01:08:04.880 there's the whole

01:08:06.100 spectrum of autism,

01:08:07.180 isn't there?

01:08:08.320 There's a type of

01:08:08.980 autism that

01:08:10.000 perhaps you

01:08:11.740 suffer from,

01:08:12.680 or someone like

01:08:13.260 Elon,

01:08:13.600 or Conor Tomlinson

01:08:17.080 used to say

01:08:17.700 he had mild autism

01:08:19.760 or something

01:08:20.220 on the spectrum

01:08:21.220 on some level,

01:08:22.100 i.e.

01:08:22.440 you're still a

01:08:23.020 functioning member

01:08:23.700 of society,

01:08:24.900 absolutely functioning,

01:08:27.180 you're litterer

01:08:27.900 and you,

01:08:29.660 you know,

01:08:29.960 there's that type

01:08:30.500 of autism

01:08:30.840 and then there's

01:08:31.300 the autism

01:08:31.700 when you have

01:08:33.000 to wear a crash

01:08:33.600 helmet because

01:08:33.980 you're just going

01:08:34.300 to keep smacking

01:08:34.760 your head against

01:08:35.280 the wall or

01:08:35.800 something and

01:08:36.220 you can't really

01:08:37.080 hold a conversation,

01:08:38.520 can't read or write

01:08:39.480 and that type

01:08:41.000 of autism,

01:08:41.600 right?

01:08:41.740 so they're

01:08:43.960 all called

01:08:44.340 autism but

01:08:45.100 it's,

01:08:48.460 or you get

01:08:49.580 what I'm saying,

01:08:50.720 right?

01:08:51.740 Have you ever

01:08:52.020 seen someone

01:08:52.540 that suffers

01:08:53.000 from that

01:08:54.140 type of

01:08:54.620 extreme autism?

01:08:56.880 They kind of

01:08:57.440 need to be

01:08:58.020 strapped to a

01:08:59.060 bed for their

01:08:59.840 own safety

01:09:00.420 a lot of the

01:09:01.660 time

01:09:01.980 and they're

01:09:04.780 lashing out

01:09:05.360 and wilding

01:09:06.740 out all the

01:09:07.260 time.

01:09:09.460 It's not quite

01:09:10.200 the same as

01:09:10.740 Elon Musk

01:09:11.420 style autism,

01:09:12.460 is it?

01:09:14.540 Anyway,

01:09:15.220 okay,

01:09:16.000 alright.

01:09:17.780 Same person

01:09:18.260 Luke Stewart

01:09:18.620 said,

01:09:19.520 damn it,

01:09:19.820 autocorrect,

01:09:20.320 I meant to

01:09:20.680 say as

01:09:21.100 someone with

01:09:21.540 autism,

01:09:22.020 right,

01:09:22.220 as someone

01:09:23.120 with autism,

01:09:23.960 it's quite

01:09:24.460 difficult for

01:09:25.320 society right

01:09:25.900 now,

01:09:26.160 especially as

01:09:26.620 you need to

01:09:27.280 use speech

01:09:27.920 to text.

01:09:29.040 Okay.

01:09:29.940 Oh,

01:09:30.260 there's a

01:09:30.540 big one.

01:09:31.500 It's one of

01:09:31.880 the biggest

01:09:32.160 super chats

01:09:32.600 we've ever

01:09:32.900 had.

01:10:04.440 other side of the

01:10:04.900 world or in the

01:10:05.720 morning,

01:10:06.860 happy to,

01:10:14.220 Thanks,

01:10:14.540 George.

01:10:15.500 buddy.

01:10:18.260 you.

01:10:19.200 Right.

01:10:21.060 A few more.

01:10:21.800 Let's whip

01:10:22.120 through them a

01:10:22.580 bit.

01:10:23.260 This is already

01:10:23.680 ten past nine.

01:10:25.580 Kick you in the

01:10:26.420 throat,

01:10:27.560 says,

01:10:28.480 breakfast

01:10:30.500 burritos

01:10:31.360 this morning

01:10:32.300 to celebrate

01:10:33.120 another world

01:10:34.500 stage LVL

01:10:36.380 bad guy.

01:10:37.820 Oh,

01:10:38.260 sorry,

01:10:38.620 another world

01:10:39.980 stage level

01:10:40.600 bad guy

01:10:41.180 gone after

01:10:43.860 another dip in

01:10:44.680 Trump's approval

01:10:45.480 seems to be a

01:10:47.380 pattern.

01:10:49.140 I guess you're

01:10:49.600 talking about

01:10:50.020 the El

01:10:50.980 Mencho.

01:10:52.780 What the,

01:10:53.200 like,

01:10:53.860 Trump has a

01:10:54.660 dip in approval

01:10:55.340 and suddenly

01:10:56.420 someone like

01:10:57.200 Maduro or

01:10:58.380 El Mencho

01:10:59.660 gets got.

01:11:00.860 Interesting,

01:11:02.400 an interesting

01:11:02.720 take.

01:11:03.760 I wonder if

01:11:04.320 that is exactly

01:11:05.340 what's going

01:11:05.860 on.

01:11:06.820 Maybe.

01:11:07.600 I suspect

01:11:08.220 not,

01:11:08.600 but I

01:11:08.800 wouldn't rule

01:11:09.600 it out.

01:11:09.980 Certainly

01:11:10.200 wouldn't rule

01:11:10.540 it out.

01:11:13.000 I mean,

01:11:13.320 it seems like

01:11:13.820 this El Mencho,

01:11:14.520 they certainly

01:11:15.580 have been trying

01:11:16.420 to get him

01:11:16.960 for a long

01:11:17.400 time,

01:11:17.720 years and

01:11:18.100 years.

01:11:19.740 So yeah,

01:11:19.980 maybe it is

01:11:20.360 weird and

01:11:20.680 suspicious that

01:11:21.180 it's like

01:11:21.460 suddenly today,

01:11:22.940 or yesterday

01:11:23.380 as it was.

01:11:25.300 Yeah,

01:11:25.540 interesting,

01:11:25.940 interesting take.

01:11:26.700 I wonder if

01:11:27.060 you're right.

01:11:30.160 Uh,

01:11:30.860 Johanna's

01:11:31.900 Hugenboom,

01:11:33.060 I wonder if

01:11:33.640 that's how

01:11:33.900 you want it

01:11:34.220 read.

01:11:34.880 Johanna's

01:11:35.280 Hugenboom,

01:11:35.900 that's quite

01:11:36.120 funny,

01:11:37.060 says,

01:11:40.020 positive of

01:11:41.040 being sick,

01:11:41.820 question mark,

01:11:43.080 up early

01:11:43.600 enough to

01:11:43.940 catch BBC

01:11:44.500 Live,

01:11:45.140 thanks from

01:11:45.540 Canada.

01:11:47.040 Oh,

01:11:47.480 Canada.

01:11:48.560 Yeah,

01:11:48.780 thanks,

01:11:49.060 thanks for

01:11:49.300 watching.

01:11:50.100 Thank you

01:11:50.520 for watching.

01:11:51.540 Without you

01:11:51.900 guys it's not

01:11:52.300 a thing,

01:11:52.780 I always say,

01:11:53.260 don't I?

01:11:54.880 But it's

01:11:55.480 true,

01:11:56.140 it's just

01:11:56.500 so true.

01:11:58.260 Otherwise

01:11:58.560 it's just me

01:11:59.200 sitting here

01:11:59.840 without you

01:12:04.520 it's not a

01:12:04.760 thing.

01:12:05.240 Cheers.

01:12:06.260 Thank you,

01:12:07.460 Johannes

01:12:07.820 Hugenboom.

01:12:09.380 Luke Stewart

01:12:09.780 again says,

01:12:10.680 I just want

01:12:11.620 Trump to add

01:12:12.180 to his

01:12:12.440 collection of

01:12:12.980 dictators

01:12:13.480 that he

01:12:15.900 could set

01:12:16.300 up a

01:12:17.100 zoo,

01:12:17.920 you know,

01:12:18.300 here in my

01:12:18.800 South American

01:12:19.460 dictator,

01:12:20.560 my Middle

01:12:21.040 East,

01:12:21.800 etc.

01:12:22.640 That would

01:12:23.000 be funny,

01:12:23.380 wouldn't it,

01:12:23.540 if he had

01:12:23.820 a mile

01:12:24.400 ago,

01:12:25.240 he had

01:12:25.440 like a

01:12:25.700 couple of

01:12:26.000 dozen

01:12:26.200 cages

01:12:26.720 with all

01:12:27.760 the

01:12:27.860 Welsh

01:12:28.040 dictators

01:12:28.500 in them.

01:12:29.520 Look,

01:12:29.740 there's

01:12:29.880 the

01:12:30.000 Ayatollah

01:12:30.580 compound

01:12:32.240 over there.

01:12:34.140 Look,

01:12:34.380 there's

01:12:34.560 Maduro.

01:12:35.580 Remember

01:12:35.840 Maduro,

01:12:36.540 look.

01:12:37.700 He's

01:12:37.840 looking old

01:12:38.240 now,

01:12:38.540 isn't he?

01:12:40.360 That would

01:12:40.900 be funny.

01:12:43.120 Yeah,

01:12:43.540 we've got

01:12:43.800 the stuffed

01:12:44.520 body of

01:12:45.080 El Mencho

01:12:45.600 around the

01:12:46.080 corner.

01:12:48.060 We did

01:12:48.600 taxidermy

01:12:49.220 on him.

01:12:52.640 Stark.

01:12:53.880 Okay.

01:12:54.180 All right.

01:12:59.380 Zef317

01:12:59.780 says,

01:13:01.160 thank you

01:13:01.420 for the

01:13:01.600 morning show.

01:13:02.120 No,

01:13:02.260 thank you.

01:13:03.380 It's my

01:13:03.660 pleasure.

01:13:04.060 Thank you.

01:13:05.400 Your tone

01:13:05.760 and delivery
