00:01:08.880 for everyone in the chat thanks for the couple of super chats has already come in global church

00:01:12.420 history in at number one already brilliant brilliant stuff all right what have we got in

00:01:18.640 news today what is the legacy corporate mainstream media banging on about today

00:01:23.440 what are they lying to us about by omission if nothing else

00:01:29.120 let's have a look shall we don't mention ireland

00:01:33.040 don't mention everything that's going on in ireland yeah guys

00:01:39.120 okay we've got summer of shortages and war windfall

00:01:44.000 you need to move me over slightly in the frame harry there

00:01:48.660 anyway we got a summit of shortages and war windfall a war windfall for oil companies

00:01:57.760 not aramco oil companies that don't get their source their oil from

00:02:03.900 the gulf a windfall for them whilst everyone else gets poorer

00:02:14.000 okay a possible summer of shortages should say really i mean quite possible but not sort of

00:02:23.440 definite start panic buying or anything don't panic don't panic paul jones don't panic okay

00:02:32.200 the times the venerable times caitley moran don't care don't care what caitley moran's

00:02:38.740 got to say about anything ever okay UK faces summer of shortages on shelves lack of CO2 to

00:02:49.660 hit farming if straight stays shut oh there's not enough CO2 now of course it's a very different

00:02:57.620 type of CO2 to the CO2 in the atmosphere that they say drives climate change very very different

00:03:08.120 thing but nonetheless ultimately exactly the same thing but you know

00:03:15.640 not man-made co2 which is the byproduct of burning fossil fuels that drives climate

00:03:22.040 change and means new york will be underwater by 2012. not that co2

00:03:29.240 manufactured co2 deliberately for all sorts of industry and you need co2 for all sorts of

00:03:34.680 of different things in industry. Packaging. Have you ever had a little salad or something

00:03:42.320 from Sainsbury's? Waitrose. And you peel the thing off and, you know, there's like a little

00:03:50.780 atmosphere in there to keep it fresh. CO2. Some CO2. That's the least of it. Vacuum-packed

00:03:57.520 meats or something. Loads and loads of different... There's loads and loads. That's the tip of

00:04:01.840 iceberg there's loads of things in industry that require co2

00:04:09.760 lots of it came from was manufactured in a sense and came from the gulf

00:04:18.480 and without that other whole other things just could and will start grinding to a hole

00:04:24.000 the same same about fertilizer don't they those types of manufactured fertilizer

00:04:29.600 Came from the Gulf region

00:04:31.720 And can't pass through the Straits of Hormuz

00:04:36.360 Although Mr Trump says it's entirely open now

00:04:38.700 Apart from Iranian vessels

00:04:41.120 Okay, there's a lack of CO2 now

00:04:45.500 I thought we had far too much

00:04:47.900 And it was killing the world

00:04:49.180 Let me tell you

00:04:52.600 The world will be here long after us

00:04:55.560 Would have thought

00:04:57.240 Long after us

00:04:59.600 Do you ever see documentaries, sometimes they've done it, I've seen more than one

00:05:02.620 They do a documentary where they say

00:05:04.360 If humans just suddenly disappeared, just magically disappeared overnight one time

00:05:08.520 How long before the Earth

00:05:11.680 Returned to like some

00:05:14.460 Some ancient state

00:05:17.720 That was almost pristine as though humans hadn't been here at all

00:05:21.340 Not long

00:05:21.900 Not long

00:05:23.620 A few decades and there would only be traces of us

00:05:26.400 A few centuries, nothing at all, apart from something like

00:05:28.800 Pyramids of Egypt

00:05:30.320 That would take millennia and millennia

00:05:31.900 To wear away

00:05:32.580 But

00:05:32.960 In a few centuries

00:05:34.680 That's it

00:05:37.060 You know

00:05:40.760 Before fedora tippers

00:05:41.900 Is that saying

00:05:43.440 Oh no

00:05:43.720 There'll be high grade steel

00:05:44.460 Okay there'll be some

00:05:45.300 There'll be some traces of us

00:05:46.600 For millennia

00:05:47.220 Sure

00:05:47.500 Largely

00:05:48.800 Largely

00:05:49.480 The idea that we're killing the planet

00:05:54.780 With man made CO2 emissions

00:05:56.700 No

00:05:57.700 No

00:05:58.800 400 parts per million in the atmosphere, no.

00:06:02.860 That's not driving climate change.

00:06:05.960 Anyway, we've not got enough CO2 now.

00:06:10.640 Again, I understand it's a different thing.

00:06:13.220 Just the irony of it struck me this morning.

00:06:17.560 Alright.

00:06:19.160 Being ginger is a good thing now.

00:06:22.740 I find red hair quite attractive.

00:06:24.340 I think some redhead women are some of the prettiest women in the world.

00:06:28.800 In my opinion, I like fair hair, blonde hair, red hair.

00:06:36.600 My Mrs is a brunette, actually, she won't let me say that.

00:06:39.860 But no, it used to be, people always used to say,

00:06:42.640 oh, there's something weird and wrong with redheads,

00:06:45.400 like it's a recessive gene, they're all going to die out soon.

00:06:48.880 It won't be long, it'll be a few centuries or whatever,

00:06:50.580 and there won't be a single redhead in the world because it's a recessive gene.

00:06:54.260 Well, this report is saying, no, quite the opposite.

00:06:57.400 There's more redheads than ever before

00:06:59.280 Evolution favours them

00:07:02.740 For a number of different reasons

00:07:04.120 Unless somebody goes on a full-blown

00:07:08.720 Proactive redhead genocide

00:07:10.920 They're here to stay

00:07:12.520 Get used to it

00:07:14.600 Look, evolution has favoured a redhead

00:07:16.680 For 10,000 years

00:07:18.400 Yeah, I read that article briefly

00:07:22.760 Skimmed it

00:07:23.340 And it said, yeah

00:07:24.940 There's more than ever before

00:07:26.540 And a couple of different reasons why

00:07:28.960 Alright, there you go

00:07:32.540 Redhead

00:07:34.200 The Independent

00:07:36.300 Talking about US Marines

00:07:40.040 These are US Marines

00:07:41.340 Marines take part in a live fire drills

00:07:44.120 Above the USS Boxer

00:07:45.580 Which is heading from the Pacific towards Iran

00:07:50.400 So

00:07:52.540 There's an increased continued build up

00:07:56.100 of us military assets and personnel in the gulf region in and around the gulf region

00:08:01.940 question is is it purely to put pressure on iran is it purely

00:08:13.860 a form of you know quite intense saber rattling or is it because trump and

00:08:18.660 hegseth are going to pull the trigger on something big

00:08:21.860 whether it's some sort of giant special forces raid deep into iran where they're going to dig

00:08:29.140 out that uranium that they're obsessed about and get it and take it away or attack karg island that

00:08:36.180 karg island or a number of other things anything it's unlikely to be a full-blown iraq 2003 style

00:08:45.700 full-blown invasion is it it won't be but i'll keep moving more and more and more men

00:08:51.860 and materiel one way or another to the region

00:08:55.000 we'll see okay the independent p.m. Sir Quir Starmer I will not yield to Trump

00:09:03.680 he said in PMQ's questions yesterday again he just explicitly said exactly said it's not our war

00:09:10.660 for once agree with him

00:09:15.660 And Reeves

00:09:19.820 Rachel Reeves

00:09:21.380 War was a mistake

00:09:22.880 Okay, that's her opinion

00:09:28.380 The world would be better off

00:09:31.040 Without that Islamic theocratic regime

00:09:33.560 In it, wouldn't it

00:09:34.560 The world would be better off

00:09:37.040 The people of Iran

00:09:38.780 The normal innocent people of Iran

00:09:40.180 Would almost certainly be better off

00:09:41.760 Wouldn't they

00:09:42.160 Without that regime

00:09:43.500 Unless it was replaced by an even more autocratic

00:09:48.440 Oppressive

00:09:50.400 Murderous one

00:09:51.860 That's quite relatively unlikely

00:09:55.140 Right

00:09:55.540 You would have thought

00:09:56.520 Whatever came after this regime

00:09:59.580 Would be better than this one

00:10:01.380 In terms of sort of repression

00:10:02.560 But you never know do you

00:10:03.440 You never know

00:10:03.880 They could get toppled

00:10:05.300 Some sort of coup d'etat

00:10:06.980 Some sort of

00:10:07.560 And then the next lot

00:10:09.140 Or even worse

00:10:10.080 You never know

00:10:10.680 That's always the worry isn't it

00:10:12.120 But

00:10:12.340 I would like to see as few

00:10:15.800 Islamic theocracies in the world as possible

00:10:18.300 Myself

00:10:18.940 So it's not our war but

00:10:25.400 It would be nice to see that regime

00:10:28.580 Change

00:10:29.420 I don't know if it is really a mistake in the grandest sense

00:10:31.700 Zoom out centuries from now

00:10:33.980 If the regime was changed

00:10:35.980 By this war

00:10:36.860 It probably wouldn't appear like a mistake

00:10:39.660 At that point would it

00:10:40.440 It would appear like a good move, ultimately, wouldn't it?

00:10:47.500 I don't know, we'll see.

00:10:49.060 Who knows? It's a difficult thing, isn't it?

00:10:53.540 Difficult thing. It's not entirely straightforward.

00:10:58.600 Okay.

00:10:59.480 Starmer vows he won't get, quote,

00:11:01.620 dragged into Trump's war after President says

00:11:03.940 he might cancel US trade deal over lack of support.

00:11:06.600 where's the rest of the world we can trade with but they are our biggest trading partner would

00:11:13.100 be a little bit worrying in the immediate short term the uk if trump just unilaterally

00:11:17.620 just cancelled that just put a billion percent tariff on everything okay as chancellor risks

00:11:27.300 further u.s anger and retribution by criticizing conflict that has quote not made world a safer

00:11:33.640 place quote well in the immediate that's true isn't it in the immediate it hasn't made the

00:11:39.120 world a safer place it's made it a much more dangerous place in all sorts of ways isn't it

00:11:42.800 if you got hit by a drone in the uae you weren't safer were you but again zoom out

00:11:48.840 in time in perspective zoom out it could potentially make the world a far safer place

00:11:58.240 couldn't it, couldn't it, that regime was terroristic, is terroristic, isn't it, it

00:12:05.320 is a bully to its neighbours, isn't it, right, I mean, just trying to present both sides

00:12:15.820 of the argument there, all right, the Guardian, okay, what have we got in the Guardian, it's

00:12:24.600 Sorry, the stain can run.

00:12:26.220 Oh, gross.

00:12:26.780 Guardian.

00:12:27.840 Right.

00:12:29.360 Call to tax profits as a firm's forecast to make $234 billion by end of year.

00:12:37.320 Yeah, because if you're a company and you make oil, you drill up crude oil or other things, you're just part of the process.

00:12:46.420 You refine crude oil down into all the different cuts of the barrel or something.

00:12:51.300 You'll be making money.

00:12:52.920 Good money.

00:12:53.380 Where the price has gone up

00:12:54.960 Right

00:12:55.840 You're making more money

00:12:56.700 Quite as simple as that

00:12:57.520 You sell barrels of oil

00:12:59.000 That don't come from the Gulf

00:13:02.740 You're making loads of good money

00:13:04.940 Shall we have a quick look at the price of oil

00:13:07.280 We do that on this show don't we

00:13:09.440 In real time

00:13:10.480 What is it this morning

00:13:11.960 $91

00:13:13.840 For a barrel of West Texas

00:13:16.760 $94

00:13:19.080 Just shy of $95

00:13:20.080 For a barrel of Brent

00:13:23.380 not insanely higher than when this war started is it why does it cost so much at the petrol

00:13:34.900 pump particularly diesel don't know well i do there's loads of complicated reasons

00:13:40.420 it's not fair though is it it's not fair the price of crude isn't insane really

00:13:47.220 Slightly above norm

00:13:51.340 I would have thought it's a little bit above

00:13:53.920 Maybe $10 maybe

00:13:55.180 Above where it would be

00:13:57.140 If this war hadn't started

00:13:59.060 At the moment

00:14:00.520 On the morning of Thursday the 16th

00:14:05.180 Why you pay so much

00:14:07.100 At the pump

00:14:09.300 Can't they just lower the taxes

00:14:12.540 Can't the state

00:14:15.300 The government, wherever you are

00:14:17.220 Lower the massive taxes they put on petrol for you

00:14:21.160 So you can afford it

00:14:22.320 And continue your life

00:14:24.160 If Ireland's anything to go by

00:14:27.720 No, they'll send you the right place

00:14:29.500 And ultimately the army

00:14:30.340 If you demand that too strongly

00:14:31.980 Just pay up

00:14:39.820 What the government's

00:14:42.160 That's their position isn't it

00:14:43.680 Any leftist government

00:14:47.840 Just pay up, Kulak

00:14:49.200 You've got money, don't dare tell us you haven't got money

00:14:52.680 You're there to be squeezed for money

00:14:57.400 Now pay up

00:14:58.200 That's leftism for you

00:15:03.600 That is leftism for you

00:15:04.860 In a nutshell, in various ways

00:15:06.500 A bigger and bigger and bigger state

00:15:09.460 That squeezes people harder and harder and harder

00:15:11.600 Until there's famine

00:15:13.040 You can't afford to eat

00:15:15.860 Alright

00:15:19.820 Back to the Guardian

00:15:22.400 War windfall

00:15:25.040 Big oil makes extra £30 million

00:15:26.940 Every hour during conflict

00:15:28.900 Great

00:15:29.860 Good for them

00:15:32.240 Well done

00:15:35.080 Don't pass any of that on

00:15:38.240 Down to the consumer though

00:15:39.320 Heaven forbid

00:15:40.040 trump's iran attack a mistake says reeves does she i don't think she's got a perspective on

00:15:48.780 anything she may well be right of course it's possible she's completely right it's possible

00:15:54.900 you zoom out centuries and historians look back at this this time that was the start of the

00:15:59.640 collapse of everything could be that you know i don't know we can't see the future do we but

00:16:03.660 one way or another what i can say what i'm pretty confident about is that reeves doesn't know what

00:16:07.700 she's talking about rachel thieves rachel from account a silly a silly person i don't think she

00:16:15.460 knows anything about economics or history or geopolitics or anything like that okay another

00:16:21.840 story bbc lose 10 of staff as it as it cuts costs by 500 million good good

00:16:29.400 i'd like to see the bbc die i'd like to see it die and go away and never come back

00:16:37.700 At this point, it's an evil thing, it's a force of subversion

00:16:41.040 I'm not saying destroy its entire backlog

00:16:45.240 As it exists today, it doesn't deserve to exist

00:16:51.540 It's a state organ of propaganda

00:16:56.600 Anti-Western, anti-British, anti-white

00:17:00.260 It's completely subversive, it's disgusting

00:17:03.520 it's a it's a tool for um extortion as well you have to pay its its uh license fee

00:17:12.940 otherwise you're in trouble now no no not giving you guys a single penny no

00:17:19.480 all right what else have we got the metro

00:17:26.400 So gross

00:17:32.940 After ex-NATO chief's damning verdict

00:17:36.120 Lord Robertson

00:17:38.400 PM's a case for defence

00:17:41.680 There was Prime Minister's questions yesterday

00:17:43.880 Kemi

00:17:45.180 Kemi versus Keir

00:17:48.740 Harry, can you just double check this main camera here

00:17:52.660 It's perfectly in focus

00:17:53.580 I'm not sure if it's in focus

00:17:55.180 Thanks

00:17:55.800 Starmer said, I have boosted military spending

00:17:59.040 Only when politicians do that

00:18:02.520 They'll spin something in a very, very certain

00:18:07.000 Specific way

00:18:07.880 So they can make a statement

00:18:10.120 But it's got the barest connection with reality

00:18:15.560 You know, like Bill Clinton saying

00:18:19.340 I did not have sexual relations with that woman

00:18:21.500 Monica Lewinsky

00:18:23.360 um it's like it's sort of 95 percent not true but just about just about you can spin just about you

00:18:32.800 can say that there's an element of reality and truth to that so they just say same thing with

00:18:38.080 this i have boosted military spending but like one small element maybe you've you've increased

00:18:44.760 spending on but so then you can make that statement it's essentially nonsense right

00:18:51.000 Badenoch, you'd rather splurge on benefits

00:18:53.480 Yeah, I mean that's what that Lord Robertson said, wasn't it?

00:18:59.340 It's like the spending on benefits is far too high

00:19:01.860 It's meaning you just simply can't afford other things

00:19:05.220 Least of all, the military

00:19:08.260 Amazing

00:19:12.040 Suicidal way of conducting government, isn't it?

00:19:15.840 And a country

00:19:16.440 Zendaya, something about Zendaya, don't care

00:19:20.700 Is it me?

00:19:22.060 But she's not that attractive

00:19:24.500 Aren't there literally millions of women

00:19:27.360 In the world that are as attractive

00:19:30.260 Is that what is

00:19:30.820 I don't get it

00:19:31.480 I don't see it

00:19:32.120 I don't see Zendaya

00:19:34.300 Why

00:19:34.860 It's always odd when the media

00:19:37.400 Like single out someone

00:19:38.760 Don't they

00:19:39.240 They quite often

00:19:40.240 They'll single out one actress

00:19:41.500 Or singer

00:19:42.140 Or something

00:19:42.920 They're on the front page all the time

00:19:44.600 Zendaya

00:19:48.320 You're going with Zendaya now

00:19:49.740 That's the one

00:19:50.680 Pretty average looking

00:19:58.520 Alright

00:20:02.840 Shant talk about Zendaya anymore

00:20:05.740 Financial Times

00:20:08.120 Tehran deploys Chinese satellite to target US bases across the Middle East

00:20:12.420 Interesting story

00:20:13.540 The little thing says

00:20:14.500 Craft bought by IRGC Space Force

00:20:18.040 Images of military sites captured

00:20:20.840 Beijing denies involvement

00:20:22.400 So the story is

00:20:23.340 Because China's got a space program, right?

00:20:28.660 Iran hasn't got a space program to speak of

00:20:31.540 China's got a pretty decent one

00:20:33.860 They send stuff to the moon

00:20:34.960 They're probably going to send humans to the moon

00:20:38.020 Relatively soon

00:20:40.420 By the end of this decade, I think

00:20:41.960 Maybe early in the 2030s

00:20:43.560 They're totally planning to

00:20:44.720 Want to show that they're capable of sending humans to the moon

00:20:47.500 they've sent various rovers to the moon the dark side of the moon all sorts of satellites sort of

00:20:53.120 all the time their space program even like 10 years ago was still a bit a bit janky nowadays

00:21:00.060 it's pretty good it's pretty damn good so anyway they offer this thing where

00:21:03.840 they'll send a satellite up for other people you pay them a few million pounds

00:21:09.640 they'll put it in orbit get it operating and then just sort of hand it over to you

00:21:14.600 Different countries

00:21:17.340 So back in 2024

00:21:18.980 It was saying

00:21:20.280 They did that for Iran

00:21:21.780 And it only cost Iran something in the order of

00:21:25.320 30, a shade over 30 million dollars

00:21:28.500 So China put a satellite in orbit

00:21:31.660 For Iran

00:21:33.440 They're now saying

00:21:35.100 People

00:21:35.500 They're chattering classes

00:21:37.400 Journalists

00:21:39.360 People in the State Department

00:21:40.900 Or the Pentagon

00:21:42.400 They're saying that that satellite

00:21:44.160 may have been or was they're saying like a military one for for imaging stuff on the ground

00:21:51.280 for military purposes um and that and it has been used in this world ready to target specific

00:21:59.200 targets like some in saudi arabia and and the uae and things and so from the american point of view

00:22:08.480 You can imagine that's annoying

00:22:11.780 They're sort of

00:22:12.320 They're like we see you China

00:22:14.100 We see

00:22:14.680 We see what you did there

00:22:17.100 We're not stupid

00:22:18.360 Is it a problem?

00:22:21.460 Does it mean that America's going to go to war with China now?

00:22:24.420 No

00:22:24.620 Not over that anyway

00:22:26.900 But

00:22:28.460 There you go

00:22:30.500 It's being reported as though

00:22:32.080 That's just a matter of fact

00:22:34.680 That China did that for Iran

00:22:38.480 So there you go, quite interesting

00:22:44.880 There you go, quite interesting, okay

00:22:46.540 Our grammar school is full of rich kids

00:22:50.920 Well yeah, that's how that works

00:22:52.480 It costs an arm and a leg

00:22:53.960 To put the tuition fees in private grammar schools

00:22:57.180 Or in Britain as we call them, public schools

00:23:00.620 Don't ask us why

00:23:02.740 Why do we call private schools public schools?

00:23:08.480 Okay

00:23:10.080 China flexes its muscles in gulf

00:23:14.460 As Trump seeks deal with Iran

00:23:16.640 The eye paper

00:23:17.460 Should we read a little bit of blurb?

00:23:19.800 It's about the best you're going to get out of Fleet Street

00:23:21.320 On any given morning

00:23:22.140 Anger grows in Beijing

00:23:23.920 At impact of US blockade

00:23:26.140 As President Winnie the Pooh

00:23:28.160 Issues his most forceful criticism of war

00:23:31.680 So they buy, I think it goes on to say

00:23:37.680 But China buys something like 90% of Iranian oil

00:23:41.840 And it accounts for, I don't know, something between 10% or 20% of China's oil needs

00:23:47.620 So it's sort of China most effective

00:23:52.520 It's not most effective

00:23:53.420 There's other places in Southeast Asia which are much more effective

00:23:55.940 In fact, Formosa

00:23:58.440 Taiwan, I like calling it Formosa

00:24:02.120 I like calling things by their old names

00:24:03.940 i think i still keep calling sri lanka ceylon right to call istanbul constantinople okay

00:24:11.140 so for moser most affected so there are a few places in southeast asia like indonesia and

00:24:18.240 the philippines and stuff like vietnam things like places like that um a real worry for them

00:24:23.220 because china have got their own domestic abilities and enough money to buy it from

00:24:27.420 wherever they need if they really need uh still still it's going to be a thorn in the side of

00:24:33.500 china the chinese economy and industry isn't it this whole gulf thing so so winnie the pooh is annoyed

00:24:41.900 okay president trump insists that china is very happy as in quotations trump china is very happy

00:24:51.820 he obviously isn't okay and that it has agreed to stop selling weapons to tehran

00:24:58.220 well that's good if that's true i suppose certainly from the american point of view

00:25:03.500 Beijing accounts for 90% of Iranian oil sales and conflict-threatened success of Superpower Summit next month.

00:25:11.220 It's going to be a Superpower Summit.

00:25:13.920 It's going to be a Superpower Summit.

00:25:17.040 The US deploys thousands of extra troops, on top of tens of thousands that are already there,

00:25:22.260 to the region as Pentagon tries to pressure Iran into accepting demands.

00:25:27.480 Yeah.

00:25:27.640 is it just pressure or are they actually gonna like drop the 82nd airborne in

00:25:35.020 send the marines ashore in amphibious vehicles like it's 1944

00:25:41.860 who knows who knows rachel reeves steps up criticism of war calling it a mistake as it

00:25:51.200 emerges that britain is likely to join coalition to police straits of hormuz quote four months

00:25:56.240 quote after war all right so according to rachel reeves and the british government it's a big

00:26:04.300 mistake the world is less safe but we are gonna and it's not our war and we won't send any materiel

00:26:10.900 and stuff but but also we are going to

00:26:13.100 they they can't make up their minds so they don't know what they're doing they really don't know

00:26:22.440 what they're doing the number of u-turns kistar has done in your whole time in government like

00:26:28.640 tony blair for example did a very very small number of u-turns in 10 years worth of government

00:26:33.300 like what two or three or something maybe slightly more than that in a decade

00:26:39.260 in a way the business of government is in all sorts of ways is to manipulate and control things

00:26:48.840 so that you don't have to do u-turns it's a big big element of it really isn't it

00:26:54.460 to be seen to be doing a u-turn at all on anything kind of ever deeply undermines you

00:27:03.500 the government people's confidence in you it does just look like every single time you do it

00:27:09.560 that you're a you're an idiot it looks like you don't know what you're doing that you don't have

00:27:13.900 any vision you don't know how to conduct government you don't know what you're talking about as

00:27:20.080 fundamental as that in case i was done like what 15 20 i think it's somewhere between 15 and 20

00:27:25.940 already within like what was it 18 months or whatever it is i can't remember now when the

00:27:30.640 last ge was but a ridiculous number a ridiculous number and here just like that the war is a

00:27:37.980 mistake we won't get involved it's not our war but also but also we are going to send minesweepers

00:27:42.260 There

00:27:42.480 It's completely incoherent

00:27:48.000 Isn't it

00:27:49.080 Completely incoherent

00:27:51.700 Oh right

00:27:53.580 Scott Mills has broken cover

00:27:56.360 Scott Mills and his gay husband

00:28:00.060 Have been seen

00:28:02.400 In public

00:28:02.800 Disgraced BBC radio DJ

00:28:05.540 Practising homosexualist

00:28:08.480 Scott Mills

00:28:09.780 Don't care do we

00:28:10.840 Don't care

00:28:11.880 Social media crackdown

00:28:14.840 No hiding place

00:28:16.160 So it was voted down

00:28:17.640 We were going to have

00:28:18.360 An Australian style

00:28:19.660 The government did want

00:28:20.960 An Australian style

00:28:22.160 A ban

00:28:23.580 Or

00:28:24.120 Type of ban

00:28:26.820 For under 16s

00:28:28.500 Or for social media

00:28:29.480 MPs voted that down

00:28:31.620 So that's not going to happen here

00:28:33.100 I did see a news report

00:28:35.380 Earlier in the week

00:28:37.180 Where they've done that in Australia

00:28:39.620 For a few months now

00:28:40.560 Not that long I think

00:28:41.880 three months or maybe four months they've had that going in australia and a report came out

00:28:46.480 saying actually no one's really happy with it the kids aren't particularly happy with it some

00:28:52.120 parents are happy with it but mostly the parents aren't particularly happy with it the kids hate

00:28:57.740 it and it doesn't necessarily make them any more safe in any real way in any real sense

00:29:05.000 okay still the headline in the mirror says social media crackdown no hiding place

00:29:13.580 pm hauls tech giants to number 10 to demand safeguards for kids because parliament itself

00:29:18.800 couldn't get it done so the other day i think yesterday a lot of uh some of the most important

00:29:23.780 people in some of the some of the social media platforms not not the real big cheeses like

00:29:29.180 the Zuck or Elon but other ones were taken physically went to number 10 to sit down with

00:29:35.400 Sir Queer Starlin this meddling idiot solicitor person sort of postman pat know nothing middle

00:29:43.380 manager empty man nowhere man he told them even though I can't get anything past the parliament

00:29:54.000 You guys need to just be better

00:29:56.380 On safeguards

00:29:58.480 I bet they were like, yeah, alright

00:29:59.700 Anyway, can I go now?

00:30:05.040 Yeah, thanks for that

00:30:05.960 Sure, sure, sure, sure

00:30:06.680 Anyway, I've got to go

00:30:07.600 See you later

00:30:08.040 PM hauls tech giants to number 10

00:30:11.660 To demand safeguards for kids

00:30:13.480 Okay

00:30:13.820 Grieving parents call for action

00:30:16.880 As MPs vote down under 16's ban

00:30:19.200 There you go

00:30:19.820 MPs vote down under 16's ban

00:30:24.000 i'm very sorry if your child was terribly hurt or even killed because of some sort of online

00:30:31.120 some sort of online trend or something but i don't want my society censored though

00:30:40.000 call me harsh i don't want my society censored because it will be

00:30:44.880 the thin end of the wedge won't it it'll be operation creep

00:30:47.920 Before you know it

00:30:51.960 It's like

00:30:52.680 You can only see

00:30:54.400 What the

00:30:54.700 All people of all ages

00:30:56.080 You can only see

00:30:56.920 What the government

00:30:57.420 Wants you to see

00:30:58.260 It will very quickly

00:31:00.420 Become that

00:31:00.940 Won't it

00:31:01.600 So I'm sorry

00:31:05.280 To bereaved parents

00:31:06.560 It's a tragedy

00:31:07.980 Of course it is

00:31:08.980 There's something

00:31:11.440 Bigger at stake here

00:31:12.620 Freedom of expression

00:31:16.280 freedom of speech, freedom of thought even

00:31:20.000 something much bigger here

00:31:23.760 don't let them manipulate your grief

00:31:27.280 into censoring our society, our world

00:31:30.440 those grieving parents, you're being manipulated by evil people

00:31:36.500 the Daily Express, it's a good paper

00:31:42.060 Dementia drugs, some dementia drugs don't really work

00:31:47.840 Apparently

00:31:49.680 Charities Slam reports claims that new treatment for dementia

00:31:55.520 Makes no meaningful difference

00:31:57.980 Dementia drug effect is branded quote trivial

00:32:01.720 That's a shame isn't it

00:32:04.000 Dementia is truly, truly terrible

00:32:06.780 Truly a nightmarish thing for everyone involved

00:32:09.900 There was reports weren't there a few weeks ago

00:32:13.020 A couple of months ago

00:32:13.660 That there was some sort of giant breakthrough

00:32:14.780 Some sort of brilliant breakthrough

00:32:16.180 Where it could be slowed down massively

00:32:19.620 Now they're saying perhaps not so much

00:32:21.960 Probably not so much

00:32:23.740 Shame

00:32:24.360 Look there's really average looking Zendaya there

00:32:27.900 Trying to tell you that she's some sort of starlet

00:32:30.960 Really?

00:32:35.400 That

00:32:39.900 She's like a six

00:32:42.540 I'm not saying she's not pretty

00:32:43.560 She's kind of pretty

00:32:45.260 But she's like a six

00:32:46.160 Come on

00:32:46.720 Literally millions of women in the world

00:32:50.700 Prettier than that

00:32:51.360 Literally millions

00:32:52.220 Go to a nightclub on any given Saturday night

00:32:55.080 Glance around the dance floor

00:32:57.660 There's half a dozen women prettier than that

00:32:59.540 Am I making that up?

00:33:00.540 Is that mad?

00:33:01.520 Am I going crazy with that?

00:33:03.200 No?

00:33:03.980 Alright

00:33:52.660 have I overgilded the lily there have I said too much

00:33:58.120 she's the transport secretary because the last one was disgraced

00:34:09.180 she got the call up to cabinet she's a big shot now she's in cabinet

00:34:13.760 she's in charge of all transport so trains obviously but also roads

00:34:18.320 the state of our roads some of our roads in britain atrocious absolutely atrocious potholes

00:34:25.000 everywhere the irony of this she basically crashed her car because of a pothole

00:34:35.040 Yeah, she's got a little mini, apparently it says, I didn't know this, apparently she

00:34:40.980 drives a little mini Cooper, it hit some sort of gigantic pothole, threw her off the road,

00:34:47.020 crashed it, had to be towed away.

00:34:52.060 The headline says, latest victim of pothole surge is cabinet minister in charge of Britain's

00:34:57.260 roads.

00:34:59.120 That's karma.

00:35:00.240 You get it?

00:35:03.460 Because the word karma's got the word car in it

00:35:05.440 That's karma

00:35:06.660 Clever wordplay

00:35:08.020 Oh so clever wordplay there

00:35:10.220 From the sun

00:35:11.620 Had a team of guys working round the clock on that one

00:35:15.720 Anyway in the scheme of things

00:35:18.820 Doesn't matter does it, who cares really?

00:35:23.520 Slightly funny

00:35:24.380 The transport secretary crashed

00:35:26.800 Because the roads are so lame

00:35:28.660 Alright, the Daily Mail, complete globalist

00:35:31.960 Slop

00:35:32.640 Trying to pretend it isn't

00:35:35.240 Trying to throw out red meat from time to time

00:35:38.000 To make you think it's based

00:35:39.340 It's not, it's not

00:35:41.300 It's the same as all the others

00:35:42.340 Something about the Duke and Duchess of

00:35:44.600 What were they?

00:35:47.180 Duke and Duchess of York

00:35:48.420 No, they're not of York

00:35:49.920 Anyway, Harry and Meghan

00:35:51.700 They're not even proper HRH anymore, aren't they?

00:35:54.920 And they've thrown out

00:35:55.680 I think

00:35:57.440 i'm not even sure they're actually hrh anyway they're in australia doing something and i don't

00:36:03.540 care about it because they're cretinous morons aren't they absolute cretins all right there's

00:36:11.640 another picture of a dj who may or may not have committed sex crimes in the late 90s

00:36:18.200 Gay sex crimes

00:36:19.740 Against a child

00:36:21.720 May or may not have done

00:36:22.840 So

00:36:26.140 I don't care about that

00:36:27.860 One year on from historic court victory

00:36:30.260 On single sex spaces

00:36:32.940 That's when the Supreme Court said

00:36:34.360 There is a difference between men and women

00:36:36.460 There is a difference

00:36:38.060 A woman is a woman, a man is a man

00:36:40.360 And you can't be both

00:36:42.260 A man, a transvestite

00:36:43.960 A man who just dresses up in women's clothing

00:36:45.700 Is not actually a woman

00:36:47.720 into that decision

00:36:53.000 okay

00:36:53.700 just a normal

00:36:55.500 sane decision

00:36:56.240 of course it is

00:36:57.180 but a year on

00:36:59.420 from that

00:36:59.940 historic verdict

00:37:01.060 hundreds of public

00:37:02.320 bodies still ignore it

00:37:03.940 because ministers

00:37:05.800 let them

00:37:06.380 says the headline

00:37:07.020 Labour's shameful

00:37:08.220 betrayal of women

00:37:09.200 and it says

00:37:10.880 despite that

00:37:12.300 year old ruling

00:37:13.280 it's saying that

00:37:16.020 NHS trusts

00:37:17.020 police forces town halls and white hall departments are failing to comply with that

00:37:22.640 if a sexually degenerate man who likes to dress up as a woman and then call himself a woman and

00:37:33.220 try and insist that the rest of the world treat him as a woman if he does that a disgusting thing

00:37:41.340 To be fair

00:37:41.900 In an NHS trust

00:37:44.420 In police forces

00:37:45.160 Town halls

00:37:45.640 And white hall departments

00:37:46.460 They just still let him do it

00:37:47.760 Going women's toilets

00:37:48.760 Or whatever

00:37:49.180 Women's changing rooms

00:37:50.060 Whatever

00:37:50.340 Various number of things

00:37:51.580 Even though it's against the law

00:37:53.220 Even though

00:37:54.240 It is against the law

00:37:56.200 Because the Supreme Court

00:37:58.280 Ruled on it

00:37:59.140 Disgusting isn't it

00:38:03.140 Disgusting

00:38:03.760 These men

00:38:05.600 Need to be

00:38:06.560 Something needs to be done

00:38:08.520 About them

00:38:08.960 The men that do that

00:38:11.340 Wrong-uns

00:38:14.780 Absolute

00:38:17.060 Wrong-un-ults

00:38:19.180 Something about Scott Mills

00:38:21.920 There again, do not care

00:38:23.760 Something about this idiot woman

00:38:26.020 Samantha Nibbler

00:38:29.540 It's Nibblet actually

00:38:32.600 Not Nibbler, Nibblet

00:38:33.920 West Moanster

00:38:37.000 Because that's very similar to Westminster

00:38:41.920 Westmonster

00:38:43.120 And Sam

00:38:47.020 MP Samantha Niblett

00:38:50.280 They're just calling her Sam now

00:38:51.480 Parliament full of hands on members

00:38:54.020 Joe I'm not even going to bother explaining to you

00:38:55.620 What that nonsense is all about

00:38:57.940 It doesn't matter does it

00:38:58.980 Who cares

00:38:59.620 It's nonsense

00:39:00.700 Slop nonsense

00:39:01.920 Alright

00:39:02.860 There's the front pages

00:39:04.100 I mean

00:39:06.860 Shall we have a look at our poll

00:39:08.960 Just before we do

00:39:10.080 Because it's relevant to this

00:39:12.960 I've got my backup water here

00:39:14.460 It's not a second cup of tea

00:39:15.480 I saw someone in the chat the other day said that

00:39:17.800 Have you got two cups of tea? No

00:39:19.160 This is water in this one

00:39:20.600 My backup water

00:39:22.660 In, I think, what was it?

00:39:27.560 Was it ITV News on the mail?

00:39:29.940 Bear with me

00:39:30.520 One second

00:39:31.860 Is the mail

00:39:34.120 oh oh oh i can't find it well okay i'll just tell you it was the story of elon musk's dad

00:39:46.520 said that jeffrey epstein isn't dead

00:39:51.700 yeah elon musk's dad who's like knocking 80 79 80 oh there it is there it is i got it i got it

00:40:02.900 Harry, bring it up.

00:40:04.140 All right, there you go.

00:40:04.640 Look, Elon Musk's father insists Epstein is alive

00:40:08.420 and that it's, quote,

00:40:10.080 it's absurd to think he's dead, quote.

00:40:15.980 I thought that was interesting.

00:40:17.280 I don't think Epstein killed himself.

00:40:19.960 I really don't think he did.

00:40:21.480 I'm prepared to believe he is dead, though,

00:40:23.060 one way or another.

00:40:25.020 You know, if you're on the internet

00:40:26.280 or you're on Twitter and things,

00:40:27.160 quite often something will come up

00:40:28.360 where it's like,

00:40:28.940 Epstein has been seen often in Israel.

00:40:31.860 He's been seen.

00:40:32.320 it's like uh that's just someone that looks a bit like epstein sometimes not even that much like him

00:40:39.320 but of course i don't know one way or another truly the true true so i don't know but

00:40:46.120 if you had to ask me if you gave me 20 pounds and then asked me to put a bet on

00:40:51.840 it's not even my money i would bet that he is dead but that he didn't actually kill himself

00:40:58.120 in that cell i'm not i'm far from convinced he killed himself i would have thought he is actually

00:41:05.560 dead but anyway anyway elon musk's dad said look elon musk's father has claimed convicted sex

00:41:11.960 offender jeffrey epstein is still alive insisting it is absurd to believe he died in jail errol musk

00:41:17.320 79 made the remarks during a prime time interview on russian state television controlled by vladimir

00:41:22.840 and Putin the way they have to spin stuff they have to spin it don't they uh where he repeated

00:41:28.540 conspiracy theories surrounding Epstein's death well he's allowed an opinion

00:41:33.100 allowed an opinion okay Epstein was found dead in his prison cell on August 10th 2019 okay

00:41:43.320 all right so that was in the news and I found that interesting all right so we did a poll we did our

00:41:50.640 poll today just over a thousand votes we just asked you guys we simply said is Epstein still alive

00:41:56.840 42% of you say yes it's a win for the yes vote wow 42% of you say yes 26% of you say no

00:42:13.680 and 32% of you say maybe so quite split there quite a split not an overwhelming win for any

00:42:20.580 give an opinion there but the yes vote has it the ias have it interesting i wonder if there's a bit

00:42:27.460 of trolling in there but probably not is it you guys genuinely think that okay i mean could be

00:42:34.880 i wouldn't rule it out someone put a gun to my head i'll say i don't know a gun to my head i'd

00:42:45.120 have to like a million pounds on the line i'd have to click maybe because i actually don't know

00:42:52.200 one way or another i haven't personally done dna tests on the body they say is jeffrey epstein

00:42:56.880 so anyway i would have thought he's uh he's not still alive i would have thought so okay

00:43:07.680 that's one of the first times is it the first time can't be the first time

00:43:12.340 The poll is at odds with my personal opinion

00:43:15.900 Although, as I say, it's not a strong one

00:43:18.340 I don't know

00:43:19.240 Alright, interesting, the eyes have it on that one

00:43:23.540 Alright, let's have a look at the websites then

00:43:25.820 What have we got today?

00:43:28.780 BBC, look at this, this scumbag

00:43:30.640 This is a fifth columnist

00:43:34.720 This is a traitor, this is an enemy of the people

00:43:37.320 This is an enemy of the state

00:43:40.080 Who is he?

00:43:42.340 He's someone who isn't a solicitor and isn't a registered immigration lawyer or advisor in any way

00:43:49.220 Going around telling migrants what they need to do to game and cheat the system

00:43:54.700 To lie and commit crimes in order to stay in this country

00:43:57.440 That's who that is

00:43:58.220 Migrants making false domestic abuse claims to stay in the UK BBC investigation finds

00:44:05.420 They got someone to pose as someone wanting to stay in the country

00:44:12.060 and that guy that particular guy of course he's just one of a whole industry of people that do

00:44:19.400 this let's see if i can his name's ellie kiss walker or sis walker ellie kiss walker ellie

00:44:28.140 sis walker for 900 pounds he will write letters to the home office which they take seriously

00:44:34.220 somehow even though he's not a lawyer he's not a solicitor he's not a solicitor he's not a

00:44:39.100 registered authorized immigration advisor or anything but somehow he can write letters to

00:44:44.100 the home office and they go they agree and take it seriously change people's claims off the back

00:44:48.700 of it he says to people oh here's the quickest possible way to get permanent residency or here's

00:44:54.760 one of the quickest ways because you don't want to wait five years do you usually you just have

00:44:59.960 to wait for five years as an asylum seeker before you get full residency you don't want to wait five

00:45:05.080 years what you do start up a relationship with a brit yeah find a kind-hearted kind-spirited

00:45:15.880 usually woman because nearly all of these are men

00:45:19.000 manipulate her into a relationship one way or another yeah and then just claim that she's abusing

00:45:25.640 you psychologically or physically don't worry if that's true just claim it i'll write a letter

00:45:32.840 to the home office backing it all up dispatch bosh you then get to you then get to immediately file

00:45:41.400 for permanent right to remain and that'll get fast tracked through because you are the victim

00:45:48.680 of domestic abuse boom you've got permanent right to remain within a few months rather than five years

00:45:56.600 oh

00:46:01.580 and you think that's just like one one-off thing you're just cherry picking one little tiny thing

00:46:08.040 that's not going on on a lot a vast scale yes it is yes it is thousands and thousands of people a

00:46:14.840 year are doing that over 5 000 in the last year alone we're doing that it's up 50 in the last

00:46:20.000 year or two yeah loads and loads of them are doing exactly that one guy one pakistani guy

00:46:24.820 Was in a relationship with a Brit

00:46:27.720 Some Brit

00:46:29.780 Who decided to get into a

00:46:31.960 Relationship with him

00:46:33.480 He was under investigation for raping her

00:46:36.500 And during all of that

00:46:41.680 He claimed that she was abusing him

00:46:44.600 Could it be more shameless

00:46:49.040 Could it be more shameless

00:46:50.500 More disgusting

00:46:52.280 Okay, loads of them pretend to be gay

00:46:59.540 You just turn up on this show and you say

00:47:01.280 Oh, you know, in my home country

00:47:03.560 They persecute or even execute gays

00:47:05.800 So I've got to stay

00:47:07.240 Because that's what I am

00:47:10.060 Complete and utter lies from start to finish

00:47:13.860 Or I'm an atheist

00:47:16.100 Oh, I come from a Muslim country

00:47:19.320 A religiously repressive country

00:47:22.760 And deep down in my heart and soul

00:47:25.740 I'm an atheist

00:47:26.580 So you can't send me back there

00:47:28.540 Because I'll be repressed

00:47:30.560 Or executed or something

00:47:32.240 Tortured

00:47:32.840 You can't send me back to Syria or Iraq

00:47:39.840 Because I'm an atheist

00:47:41.380 And they'll torture and kill me

00:47:42.900 All lies, complete lies

00:47:44.420 And people at the home office

00:47:48.660 Globalists, bleeding heart liberals

00:47:53.440 Blue haired traitors

00:47:55.740 Just go, yep, fine, tick, you're in forever

00:47:58.420 And bring your family over

00:47:59.880 Bad, isn't it?

00:48:06.180 They need to be sent home, clear them out

00:48:08.380 We've got a clear amount

00:48:09.480 Millions must go

00:48:12.600 Millions of these people must be sent back to their countries of origin

00:48:16.100 They must be

00:48:19.620 okay i remember that guy that did loads of sexual assaults in epping and then

00:48:24.820 get put in prison and then just they just let him out of prison

00:48:31.220 and then and then just sent him back to paid for him just to go back to his own country

00:48:38.500 in that whole thing david lammy says it's a broken asylum system it's a bit more than that isn't it

00:48:42.900 bit more than that a broken society a broken government the prison system all sorts of things

00:48:49.820 david lammy uh remember that sycamore gap thing it was an iconic sycamore tree

00:48:57.400 it was in the film robin hood prince of thieves and people loved it

00:49:00.540 take day trips out just to go and see it propose to your sweetheart under it beautiful beautiful

00:49:06.620 thing they two two dudes just cut it down in the middle of the night for no reason

00:49:10.240 For a laugh

00:49:11.200 For notoriety

00:49:13.140 One of them's been let out now already

00:49:18.180 That's a sort of vandalism

00:49:23.720 If it were up to me

00:49:24.720 I'd put extremely long tariffs on

00:49:28.460 But you go to prison for a long time for that

00:49:30.240 For me

00:49:30.800 For my money

00:49:32.040 Alright

00:49:34.060 Beth Rigby

00:49:36.220 Trying to be serious

00:49:37.400 Trying to be a serious person

00:49:38.700 She knows about politics

00:49:40.680 Beth Rigby

00:49:41.380 Her analysis

00:49:44.260 She can tell you what's going on and why

00:49:46.260 Yeah okay

00:49:51.760 Okay

00:49:52.820 What else have we got

00:49:54.820 Was there something in the mail

00:49:55.700 Oh yeah

00:49:56.140 Elon's dad

00:49:57.280 Elon's dad's got an opinion

00:49:59.980 Big news

00:50:01.160 Right

00:50:01.800 Just loads of different horrible stories

00:50:07.400 loads and loads of different horrible stories uh look oh uh channel gangs sidestep french police

00:50:15.580 by launching boats from belgium yeah that's what they'll do if the pas de calais does get policed

00:50:21.800 too well and efficiency efficiently by the french police unlikely but if it is occasionally when

00:50:29.340 they feel like it is oh well the migrant gangs just move up or down the coast a bit

00:50:34.040 Or we'll just launch from somewhere else in Normandy or something

00:50:36.860 Or from Belgium

00:50:37.660 Instead

00:50:39.140 It's a slightly longer

00:50:40.880 Slightly more dangerous sea voyage

00:50:43.560 But in good weather and calm seas

00:50:46.660 No biggie

00:50:48.480 Yeah that's just what they're doing

00:50:49.380 Yeah

00:50:49.580 That's why we need to put something in the channel

00:50:53.620 4-2 Commando or the SBS

00:50:55.620 A dozen or two soldiers in speedboats

00:50:59.560 To just tow these

00:51:02.160 This little

00:51:03.080 These dinghies

00:51:04.400 Just tow them back

00:51:05.420 Into French waters

00:51:06.220 At the point of an SA80

00:51:09.800 If needs be

00:51:10.460 Yeah we're towing you back

00:51:12.380 Yeah you're trying to

00:51:13.020 Invade our country

00:51:13.920 You scumbags

00:51:14.720 You criminal filth

00:51:16.720 Yeah we're not going to

00:51:19.480 Let you invade our country anymore

00:51:20.780 It should be

00:51:21.460 Should be the policy

00:51:22.440 4-2 commando

00:51:24.120 Do it

00:51:24.560 Our government won't do that

00:51:26.440 They won't do anything like it

00:51:27.560 They want us invaded

00:51:29.200 By this filth

00:51:31.040 What other conclusion can you come to

00:51:32.900 Than that they want it

00:51:35.000 There is no other conclusion as far as I can tell

00:51:40.480 Oh we just can't, oh we tried

00:51:42.780 Suella Breverman tried

00:51:44.200 Did she?

00:51:46.560 Preeti Patel tried, James Cleverley tried

00:51:49.440 Shibana Mahmood's

00:51:51.020 Trying to stop it

00:51:52.760 No you're not, no you're not

00:51:53.640 You can stop it in one afternoon

00:51:55.200 You can call a Cobra meeting, get the Defence Secretary

00:51:57.680 To get a general to send

00:51:59.600 Half a dozen speedboats

00:52:01.760 With 4-2 commando in it

00:52:04.300 Which stops it immediately

00:52:05.580 No

00:52:06.800 They're making the political decision

00:52:08.920 Not to do that

00:52:09.820 Every single day

00:52:10.640 Stop the boats

00:52:13.820 Rishi's slogan for government

00:52:15.760 Was stop the boats

00:52:16.740 Liars

00:52:17.600 Complete liars

00:52:19.620 In the sun

00:52:24.500 Lindsay Hoyle and the Prime Minister

00:52:27.780 Crosswords

00:52:29.520 Lindsay Hoyle keeps pulling up the Prime Minister

00:52:31.720 For not answering questions properly

00:52:33.240 Now I

00:52:34.880 Hate Keir Starmer and

00:52:37.760 Lindsay Hoyle

00:52:38.680 Almost equally

00:52:40.440 They're both scumbags as far as I'm concerned

00:52:46.260 But over the last few months

00:52:49.020 Two or three or four times

00:52:50.700 The Speaker

00:52:52.480 Sir Lindsay

00:52:54.120 Is a man

00:52:55.420 His name is Lindsay but he's a man

00:52:56.740 A northern commie, as far as I'm concerned

00:53:01.300 He's pulled up the Prime Minister a few times

00:53:03.820 Saying, look, you're not answering the question directly enough

00:53:06.400 In PM's queues and other times

00:53:09.320 You don't get to flip the opposition's question

00:53:14.460 Into a question for them

00:53:16.340 When you're answering it

00:53:18.600 You're just sort of answering a different question

00:53:20.540 You're not answering it enough

00:53:23.820 well well for once not for once but it's a rare thing but i i'm on the side of kiev starmer on

00:53:31.200 that one if i was the prime minister i would say to the speaker calm down mate i think i'll say

00:53:39.260 within reason what i want to say otherwise i'll just stop turning up in parliament i don't have

00:53:44.060 to do pm's queues at all you know that right it's only by convention only by convention i don't have

00:53:48.640 to do at all if i was prime minister in both britain i would rarely i would rarely go to

00:53:55.620 parliament i think i'd probably stop pmqs it's a farce it's a theater from top to bottom it's a

00:54:02.680 bit embarrassing i think no no no i'll speak directly to the people thanks if i was prime

00:54:09.120 minister i'd still make videos for youtube or whatever i would still just have my own website

00:54:16.760 or whatever and speak directly to the people i don't need someone like lindsay hoyle saying

00:54:21.960 what i can or can't say i'll just speak for myself how about that i'm not going to go through the

00:54:28.920 bbc or anything like that or sky news either no i'll just speak straight to a camera and that can

00:54:33.400 go on the internet and people can click on it if they want or not don't need the mainstream media

00:54:38.680 don't need lindsay hoyle how about that i'll turn up to parliament when you have to right

00:54:44.920 to launch legislation or something and when there's votes of course

00:54:49.240 but as for the rest of it the speaker going oh you can't do that and of course in the part it's

00:54:56.540 completely his discretion and in the past it's been fine the way Keir Starmer conducts himself

00:55:01.740 in PMQs perfectly fine in my opinion it's the way it's always been it's the whole thing's a theatre

00:55:07.600 whole thing's a joke that you use it to try and dunk on the other side that you use their question

00:55:13.860 To flip round on them

00:55:15.540 That's what the whole thing is

00:55:17.380 Oh but the Prime Minister isn't doing it

00:55:19.480 Exactly how Sir Lindsay Hoyle wants

00:55:21.580 You're the Speaker mate

00:55:25.820 That's it

00:55:26.320 You think you're like the King

00:55:27.940 You think you're above government or something

00:55:31.120 The point is

00:55:38.540 He thinks he's got way more authority

00:55:41.080 Than he has

00:55:41.540 He can tell the Prime Minister what he's supposed to do

00:55:45.800 And say

00:55:47.280 If I was Prime Minister I'd probably just boycott PMQs

00:55:53.340 I'd either send someone else to do it

00:55:54.960 Or I'd stop the whole thing entirely

00:55:57.820 This has become a farce and a joke

00:56:00.780 And there's nothing in law saying we have to do it

00:56:03.800 It's only by convention

00:56:04.800 And I'll speak to the people directly, thanks

00:56:07.320 what so all your own backbenchers can tee you up with good questions you go yes the government's

00:56:13.240 doing great i'm doing great i do everything perfect what's that what's that worth it's not

00:56:17.120 worth anything that's that's embarrassing and then the other side ask questions where they're

00:56:22.420 just trying to dig at you like disingenuous bad faith questions and stuff well what is the point

00:56:28.120 of it and then you try and do some sort of clever barrister type thing and flip it around on them

00:56:33.760 And Lindsay Hoyle gets annoyed at you for doing that

00:56:36.060 I know some people love PMQs

00:56:40.900 They think it's great theatre

00:56:42.420 It's one of the great things about our politics

00:56:46.520 I don't know, I think it's embarrassing

00:56:47.780 I think it's a joke

00:56:48.340 And they're all guffawing and yelling and shouting

00:56:51.080 And waving their hands at us and stuff

00:56:52.680 I think it's embarrassing

00:56:53.720 Alright, that's enough about that

00:56:57.780 This guy, look

00:56:59.560 Acts of pure evil

00:57:01.740 Brit carried out pure acts of evil in U.S. after two women murdered.

00:57:06.500 Oh, a British man did some murders in the United States.

00:57:11.760 A British man.

00:57:13.640 His name's Olaway Lukitian Adon Abel.

00:57:20.880 A Brit, a British man.

00:57:22.660 he was born in britain though he was born in britain so he's a brit

00:57:39.400 he went to america and went on a kill spree

00:57:42.940 oh right he's a brit though he's british sure something about chernobyl interesting because

00:57:52.120 in a few days or in a week or so it's the 40th anniversary of chernobyl feel old yet although

00:57:58.480 i was only a kid i don't remember it firsthand i don't remember it firsthand it's like 1986 yeah

00:58:05.300 so i was only five i remember uh i remember the

00:58:11.940 that crush at sheffield wednesday football crush the crowd

00:58:18.420 um i remember the berlin wall coming down 1989 i don't remember this firsthand although

00:58:25.880 i am fascinated by chernobyl ever since i was quite young weirdly young fascinated by chernobyl

00:58:32.320 read loads about it watched more or less every documentary i could ever ever find some of them

00:58:38.160 more than once that hbo thing they did a few years back i thought was superb even though they

00:58:43.820 amalgamated a few characters into one and something slightly not perfectly

00:58:48.800 accurate still thought it was brilliant that HBO Chernobyl anyway is it because

00:58:52.980 it's the 40th anniversary is coming up it's just a an article here with this

00:58:57.800 guy who's one of the those human robots on on the roof getting rid of the graphite

00:59:04.220 like the material that really really radioactive nuclear material was blown

00:59:11.120 out of that reactor landed on some of the roofs and they had to get rid of it otherwise it just

00:59:16.960 would have poisoned all of ukraine and belarus and all parts of europe and russia had to get rid of

00:59:21.700 it and robots actual actual robots weren't up to it at the time in the mid 80s couldn't really do

00:59:28.840 it couldn't hack it so they had to send people there to do it they had like one two minutes out

00:59:33.840 on that roof to run over to a bit of graphite throw it off the side so someone else could pick

00:59:38.080 it up later and then run back get down loads of those people were irradiated this guy's still

00:59:44.040 alive to this day yeah okay so that's what it looks like now there's like that big door over

00:59:50.140 they built a sarcophagus over it shortly after the incident in the end that wasn't good enough

00:59:56.160 and they built another one over that now this brand new shiny thing that's what it looks like

01:00:01.240 now okay Chernobyl fascinating I will have to do an epochs about it at some point I should have to

01:00:08.160 have been fascinated with it pretty much my whole life I like watching even though I'm no nuclear

01:00:14.380 physicist like I really like watching videos just about the physics of how it the real real story

01:00:20.560 of how it melted down and then blew up blew up um anyway okay all right well it's nine o'clock

01:00:30.660 where's the time gone it's already nine o'clock should we do uh on this day in history you don't

01:00:35.520 have to stop online let's do this day in history before we do the rumble rances and super chats

01:00:40.000 all right on this day in history on the 16th of april down through the centuries

01:00:43.440 down through the millennia what happened of note you guys like the seems like this section i like

01:00:49.220 doing this section all right i say down through the millennia because the first one here

01:00:53.340 is from the 15th century bc in the year 1457 bc was the battle of megiddo that's when the

01:01:07.380 egyptian forces under tutmos the third defeat a large canaanite coalition under the king of kadesh

01:01:13.060 it's the first battle recorded with reliable with a reliable account that's the key point

01:01:19.500 reliable there's a battle of kadesh the battle of kadesh long before that

01:01:27.260 and there's an account of it but it's not considered particularly reliable it's probably

01:01:33.020 propaganda anyway there's this one canaanite so this battle is in modern day israel the site of

01:01:40.060 it rests in what is modern day israel an egyptian victory an egyptian victory that whole part of

01:01:47.180 the world was controlled by the egyptian pharaohs at that stage in the 15th century bc

01:01:52.540 there's a basically a rebellion by canaanites topmost the third goes and puts it down and wins

01:01:59.660 there you go all right on this day in 1705 queen anne queen anne commands and we obey

01:02:07.500 over the hills and far away she knights isaac newton at trinity college

01:02:14.140 Cambridge, the Isaac Newton. A remarkable man, Isaac Newton, of course, of course. If you're

01:02:23.360 a history nerd and you like the history of science, as I do, learn all about Isaac Newton.

01:02:28.980 He's a complicated man, very odd in many different ways. He wasn't just a straightforward family

01:02:35.260 man who had a great scientific mind. There's loads more to him than that. But the various

01:02:41.940 things he did particularly his laws of motion unbelievable scientific and

01:02:48.420 mathematic insight unbelievable really a man out of time kind of true true genius

01:02:57.300 but very very awkward socially had a very odd sex life probably a um and not an

01:03:06.320 incel what is it a vol cell voluntary celibate his whole life sort of thing

01:03:10.540 Very, very awkward with people

01:03:12.720 Very, very shy

01:03:14.780 Didn't like really

01:03:16.420 Talking to people much at all

01:03:19.080 Didn't like

01:03:21.160 Particularly having loads and loads of praise

01:03:23.020 For the amazing things he achieved

01:03:24.720 Kind of, I mean

01:03:26.140 Anyway

01:03:27.040 Lots and lots of arguments with other great minds of the day

01:03:30.360 Fantastic, fantastic, interesting life

01:03:32.280 Isaac Newton, check it out

01:03:33.440 If you're interested in the history of science

01:03:35.280 Watch a documentary or two or read a book about

01:03:37.660 The actual life of Isaac Newton

01:03:39.560 Believed in all sorts of other things as well

01:03:41.540 That were unscientific

01:03:42.760 How's that possible?

01:03:46.540 He believed in spirits and ghosts and stuff

01:03:48.880 As well

01:03:50.380 He was doing work on prisms and light

01:03:53.700 And have an extremely scientific mind, obviously

01:03:56.600 Okay, could go on and on about Isaac Newton

01:04:00.620 I should do an epoch about him as well, shouldn't I?

01:04:04.120 I've read a couple of books about his life and times

01:04:06.240 And, of course, lived through

01:04:07.860 Extremely turbulent, interesting times

01:04:11.660 Okay, on this day in 1748

01:04:13.980 The Battle of Culloden

01:04:15.100 God, I could talk about this for hours

01:04:16.920 I shan't, it's not a history show

01:04:19.220 But the Battle of Culloden

01:04:20.460 Culloden

01:04:23.380 It's where the English

01:04:26.740 Smashed the Scots to bits

01:04:28.980 To the point where they could never

01:04:30.800 Fight back everywhere again

01:04:32.580 If and when Scottish people

01:04:36.380 And English people argue about

01:04:38.120 Different battles they've won

01:04:40.420 Through the centuries

01:04:41.840 What about that time

01:04:43.400 Like a Scot might say to an Englishman

01:04:45.220 What about that time

01:04:46.240 We beat you in some battle in the 13th century

01:04:50.960 What about that time

01:04:52.200 An Englishman need only mention

01:04:55.360 The name Culloden

01:04:56.540 And the Scotsman has to sort of

01:04:59.200 Be a bit quiet

01:05:00.140 Or not necessarily that

01:05:01.520 They might mention the massacres

01:05:02.720 The English did after Culloden

01:05:04.540 Nonetheless

01:05:05.760 It says

01:05:07.340 Royalist troops

01:05:08.440 English troops

01:05:09.160 Under the Duke of Cumberland

01:05:10.720 Who was one of the King's sons

01:05:12.200 Defeat the Jacobite army

01:05:14.160 Under Charles Edward Stuart

01:05:15.580 That's Bonnie Prince Charlie

01:05:17.460 The Pretender

01:05:19.320 In the final battle

01:05:22.780 Of the Jacobite Rising

01:05:24.020 On British soil

01:05:25.340 Where we just

01:05:26.660 The English just completely

01:05:28.040 Won the battle

01:05:29.160 And then went on to chase

01:05:30.900 Everyone off the field

01:05:32.660 Into the Highlands

01:05:34.220 And massacre loads of people

01:05:35.760 Loads

01:05:36.900 I say it glibly

01:05:40.800 Like an Englishman need only mention Culloden

01:05:42.740 To win an argument

01:05:43.560 Well the other side

01:05:45.080 The flip side of that is

01:05:46.240 A Scotsman can say

01:05:47.820 Legitimately can say

01:05:48.900 Legitimately

01:05:51.500 I'm an apologist

01:05:53.240 And I defend England and everything

01:05:55.320 But a Scotsman can legitimately say

01:05:57.220 There was a frightful atrocity

01:06:00.600 The Duke of Cumberland's men

01:06:02.620 After that

01:06:03.260 Going through the Highland clearances

01:06:05.480 Killing loads and loads of Scots

01:06:09.540 Who were innocent

01:06:10.180 Completely innocent people

01:06:12.760 Nonetheless

01:06:15.300 I mean the Scots never

01:06:17.480 Tried to fight another battle with England

01:06:19.600 Again after that, never

01:06:20.860 They couldn't, they were not capable

01:06:23.680 Of it

01:06:24.700 The Duke of Cumberland saw to that

01:06:27.080 Alright

01:06:30.860 very very pivotal battle

01:06:35.040 Bonnie Prince Charlie

01:06:37.580 thought he could restore the Stuart Lion

01:06:41.320 he tried to and did invade England

01:06:45.480 but we didn't do it out of nowhere

01:06:47.020 it's not like we were like

01:06:48.080 I know out of nowhere

01:06:49.020 there's complete peace with Scotland

01:06:50.560 and England just says

01:06:54.280 I know

01:06:54.800 let's go and just force Scotland

01:06:56.420 into a battle for no reason

01:06:57.680 and then massacre them all

01:06:58.580 no

01:06:58.800 they invaded England

01:07:00.200 bonnie prince charlie invaded england he got down to like the midlands didn't he i can't remember

01:07:03.800 i should know exactly did he get to like derby he get as far as like derby in the midlands something

01:07:09.160 like that or did he get to like manchester liverpool way he certainly got as far as that i believe

01:07:15.880 he's trying to get to london and conquer england okay so that's what you get you get the duke of

01:07:22.120 cumberland smashing you to bits and then chasing you all into the highlands that's what you get

01:07:26.920 in the 18th century all right all right just so you know on this day in the year 1900 u.s post

01:07:35.160 office issues its first stamp booklets containing 12 24 and 48 two-cent stamps whoever makes this

01:07:42.440 website on this day in history they obviously love the history of like the postal service and

01:07:48.120 stamps don't they because they quite often put something like that in there okay on this day in

01:07:51.880 1948, the Organisation for European Economic Cooperation, the OEEC, forms in Paris, one

01:07:58.500 of the first kernels of the modern EU. Bad idea from inception, in my opinion. Maybe

01:08:06.520 not for European countries, to be fair. For Britain. Well, we weren't involved in that,

01:08:12.060 were we? It's all run out of Bonn in West Germany. As a concept, it's not a completely

01:08:19.280 terrible idea is it that west germany as was and france should have such tight economic

01:08:25.000 compact that they can never go to war with each other again it's a broad concept that's not insane

01:08:32.240 is it what's wrong with that you might say okay fine all right don't drag the rest of europe

01:08:37.460 including britain into something further down the line where it's ruining us though thank thank

01:08:43.740 Individual people that did that

01:08:47.520 In the late 40s, early 50s

01:08:48.840 They would have had no concept of

01:08:50.440 The beer moth that the EU

01:08:53.540 Has become, they would have no concept of that

01:08:55.120 Alright

01:08:56.900 On this day in 2003

01:08:59.040 The Treaty of Accession is signed in Athens

01:09:01.880 Admitting 10 new member states

01:09:03.720 To the European Union, great

01:09:05.120 Great

01:09:07.800 Alright, should we have a look at our Rumble Rants and Super Chats

01:09:11.940 Let's do that now

01:09:12.880 Let me just do this with my mic stand so I can see my whole screen here

01:09:18.800 I need a bit of WD-40 on it

01:09:22.920 Alright, what have we got?

01:09:24.980 Okay, Global Church History, and another one as always

01:09:27.100 Boom, thank you sir

01:09:28.000 You say

01:09:28.340 You've said

01:09:30.600 Today, in 1209, St. Francis received papal assent for his order

01:09:35.900 That must be St. Francis of Assisi

01:09:39.480 The Franciscan Order you're talking about there

01:09:42.880 St Francis of Assisi, a fascinating figure

01:09:46.000 There's that great very late 1960s documentary called Civilization

01:09:52.040 With Lord Kenneth Clark, the art historian, not the Thatcherite politician

01:10:00.180 The father of Alan Clark, the Thatcherite politician

01:10:06.740 Kenneth Clark, the historian

01:10:08.600 Did a seminal

01:10:10.640 Seminal documentary

01:10:12.780 Just called Civilization

01:10:13.840 And there's a whole big section in that

01:10:16.720 All about the life

01:10:17.800 And teachings of St Francis of Assisi

01:10:20.640 Fascinating

01:10:22.940 Sort of a mendicant

01:10:23.820 He reached poverty

01:10:25.380 Yeah, okay

01:10:28.900 At first the Catholic Church liked it

01:10:31.460 And was on board with it

01:10:32.300 And not too long afterwards

01:10:34.020 A generation or two afterwards

01:10:35.900 Decided they were

01:10:38.100 Heretical, there was some sort of problem with them

01:10:40.820 Interesting nonetheless

01:10:43.660 But you say on this day in 1209

01:10:45.440 He first received papal assent

01:10:47.680 Interesting

01:10:49.540 You should say in 1521

01:10:52.100 Martin Luther first appeared

01:10:53.980 Before the Diet of Worms

01:10:55.760 To be examined by Charles

01:10:57.540 By Emperor Charles V

01:11:00.000 Yeah so

01:11:01.800 That's

01:11:03.540 Martin Luther, the German monk

01:11:06.340 Joke thinker, not

01:11:07.680 Martin Luther King Jr

01:11:09.320 Yeah, so he's examined

01:11:15.000 His, well

01:11:17.760 As far as the Catholics are concerned

01:11:19.540 His heretical thought and teachings

01:11:21.360 And sayings and writings

01:11:22.520 But they wouldn't

01:11:25.880 I mean, ultimately

01:11:27.940 They wouldn't hand him over to Rome

01:11:29.980 They wouldn't send him to Rome

01:11:32.120 To be examined

01:11:34.140 By the Roman Inquisition

01:11:36.040 It's almost certainly torture to death

01:11:39.160 Martin Luther did get to live out his life

01:11:44.480 In Germany

01:11:45.520 And die of natural causes ultimately

01:11:47.200 Big turning point in history

01:11:49.660 Nearly everyone that tried to do

01:11:52.420 What Martin Luther did

01:11:53.720 In the centuries before Martin Luther

01:11:55.480 Came to a sticky end one way or another

01:11:57.640 He was the first one to be protected

01:12:00.420 Ultimately by German princes

01:12:02.000 saying no you can you can excommunicate him if you want damn his soul if you want you can call

01:12:09.400 him everything you want under the sun but he's going to stay in germany actually

01:12:13.620 what now and thus the reformation it's a bit more than that but all right okay

01:12:23.960 the life of my life i've said already and i say a lot don't i that person's got a fascinating life

01:12:29.060 That person's got a fascinating life

01:12:30.440 The things, the events surrounding that person

01:12:32.700 Are worthy of interest in reading about

01:12:34.840 And watch a documentary

01:12:35.480 Martin Luther

01:12:36.680 The original 16th century Martin Luther

01:12:39.600 Unbelievably pivotal

01:12:42.920 An extremely interesting person

01:12:47.460 Whether you're a Catholic or not

01:12:48.460 Whether you're a Protestant or not

01:12:49.880 Extremely interesting

01:12:51.280 You should know about him

01:12:53.260 Again, one way or another

01:12:57.240 Alright, Fortean Barber says

01:12:59.280 Good morning, Bo

01:12:59.960 Morning, sir

01:13:00.560 I see the fuel forecast is bad

01:13:04.840 And with the lack of farmland

01:13:06.520 We might run out of items

01:13:07.940 People need to not panic by

01:13:10.360 Exclamation mark

01:13:11.300 Don't panic!

01:13:12.740 Don't panic!

01:13:14.800 You're right, though

01:13:15.580 You're right

01:13:15.940 Sorry

01:13:16.360 You're absolutely right

01:13:17.680 Everything else will be fine

01:13:19.360 That and a general election

01:13:22.060 Yeah, no, I agree with your sentiment there

01:13:24.060 Yeah

01:13:24.320 Yeah

01:13:25.700 Don't panic by

01:13:26.520 It's about the most

01:13:27.360 Selfish thing you can do

01:13:31.100 And there's no need to

01:13:31.800 At this point whatsoever

01:13:32.520 Alright

01:13:33.260 14 Barber says

01:13:37.820 Have been travelling

01:13:38.580 Heidi Alexander

01:13:40.120 Disgusting pig

01:13:42.160 Heidi Alexander

01:13:43.020 He said

01:13:44.580 How fast must she

01:13:45.280 Have been travelling

01:13:45.880 For a pothole

01:13:47.420 To flick the car

01:13:48.440 Off the road

01:13:49.020 You're right by the way

01:13:51.220 Zendaya isn't all that

01:13:52.680 There's far more

01:13:54.780 Attractive ladies

01:13:55.520 In Hollywood

01:13:55.960 Yeah, far more

01:13:56.700 I don't think she's ugly

01:13:58.560 She's obviously not ugly

01:13:59.400 But her bone structure

01:14:02.180 She's not like Grace Kelly, is she?

01:14:07.460 Alright

01:14:07.720 She's not like a young Gwyneth Paltrow, is she?

01:14:12.880 Alright

01:14:13.100 Yeah, and I suppose Heidi Alexander

01:14:14.460 Probably was zipping along relatively quick

01:14:16.640 You know, no meaning keeper

01:14:17.940 I don't know, I don't know

01:14:19.080 Of course I don't know

01:14:27.180 The actual Battle of Kadesh was in 1274 BC

01:14:31.420 Yeah, I know, there are different things

01:14:32.580 There are different things

01:14:34.440 After Megiddo rather than before

01:14:37.220 Oh, okay, sorry, on that point then

01:14:39.580 Okay, fair enough, fair enough

01:14:41.920 Yeah, because there was

01:14:44.800 And was between the Egyptians and the Hittites

01:14:47.020 Yeah, that's right, yeah, that's why I thought there were two entirely different things

01:14:49.180 The Battle of Kadesh is the Hittites

01:16:25.860 unfortunately but not always okay well i know damien lewis

01:16:31.040 i think red-headed women some of them are extremely extremely attractive

01:16:38.240 all right in my opinion in my opinion i had a mate growing up he thought all ginger women

01:16:43.500 no matter how obviously beautiful they were he would say they're gross because they're ginger

01:16:46.980 come on mate come on come on please all right brendan lucas says turns out in the rescue of

01:16:56.660 the US pilot might have been the last ever operation of the Harrier, what the Harrier

01:17:01.060 jump jet, vertical take off and landing Harrier jump jet, oh, they are old now, weren't they

01:17:05.520 first designed in like the 70s I think, okay, we ended up selling all of ours didn't we

01:17:10.040 to the US, 60 years old you say, yeah it could be knocking the 70s, maybe even the concept

01:17:17.940 is from the 60s, I don't know, but yeah, 60 years old, VM-122 Bulldog Squadrons off

01:17:26.520 uss triple e provide close air support along with the a10 while man was being recovered right yeah

01:17:34.280 i did a whole segment on it on the on the main podcast of the lotus eaters

01:17:38.080 yeah there was an a10 got downed i believe as well didn't it i believe they lost an a10 in that

01:17:44.200 at least one but yeah more and more reports coming out saying maybe it was there was more to that

01:17:52.540 than just a downed pilot maybe there's more elements to it about some sort of failed raid

01:17:57.300 on who knows who knows i like to try and stick to the facts where possible you know i don't mind a

01:18:03.360 bit of conjecture i don't mind a bit of rumor i don't mind a bit of conspiracy theory but as long

01:18:07.740 as i've made clear that it is rumor conjecture conspiracy theory i do want to only present

01:18:16.400 things as fact if i'm very confident that they're facts and then even then if i'm wrong i'll correct

01:18:22.520 myself like the other morning when i confused hugh edwards and eamon holmes

01:18:32.600 yeah immediately retracted dinner obviously went on twitter going sorry yeah yeah my mistake

01:18:39.400 good faith error not deliberately trying to slander eamon holmes it gets well by the way i just

01:18:47.240 my brain quite often when you do things like this what your mouth is saying is behind what

01:18:51.960 what your mind's doing you're thinking ahead a bit and so your mouth's a little bit on autopilot

01:18:57.140 sometimes that's what that was i just see a picture that vaguely looked like hugh edwards

01:19:03.520 and even though my mouth is saying amen my brain's just yeah it happens what can you do

01:19:11.480 but yeah of course correct me of course please do and i will stand corrected

01:19:15.240 Getting things factually wrong

01:19:18.340 Just straight up factually wrong

01:19:20.020 In this game is not really

01:19:22.420 Acceptable is it

01:19:23.900 I make history themed content all the time

01:19:26.760 If you get something just straight up

01:19:28.520 Factually wrong

01:19:29.440 You've got to own up to it

01:19:32.180 There's another way of doing it

01:19:33.740 Alright

01:19:34.160 Something wickedly

01:19:37.060 That's their name says

01:19:38.700 I'm up for ghosts

01:19:42.480 I'm up

01:19:44.360 Ghosts woke me

01:19:45.560 And that's Shona

01:19:47.500 Shona off Twitter

01:19:48.340 You've put

01:19:49.620 I'm up

01:19:51.040 Ghosts woke me

01:19:52.180 I'm up

01:19:55.200 I've woken up

01:19:55.760 Because ghosts

01:19:56.500 Woke me up

01:19:57.160 You say

01:19:57.580 I don't believe in ghosts

01:20:02.600 Particularly

01:20:03.000 I have no real faith

01:20:06.120 That most paranormal activity

01:20:08.080 Is anything other than

01:20:09.300 Nonsense

01:20:10.660 I have the odd question

01:20:11.620 Here or there

01:20:12.180 You know

01:20:13.080 That little thing here or there

01:20:14.860 Once in the blue moon

01:20:15.980 Is genuinely unexplainable to me

01:20:18.100 Okay

01:20:18.420 I don't really believe in ghosts particularly

01:20:20.640 Same person there

01:20:22.020 Something wickedly says

01:20:22.960 Rachel looks like Myra Hindley

01:20:25.980 Rachel Reeves looks like

01:20:28.180 Rachel Reeves I guess you're saying

01:20:29.740 Looks like Myra Hindley

01:20:30.780 I see an element of that

01:20:32.600 I suppose a little bit

01:20:34.340 Yeah

01:20:37.860 Obviously a younger Myra Hindley

01:20:39.880 I can still see that

01:20:41.960 Alright

01:20:42.840 44 Magnum Norse says

01:20:44.600 Is Starmer a person or a robot from the future

01:20:47.620 Who is trying to murder us

01:20:48.920 Perfectly valid question

01:20:50.860 Yeah

01:20:51.240 It does seem a bit like that doesn't it

01:20:56.480 Was he sent back to ruin Britain

01:21:00.180 There is something very robotic like about him

01:21:06.440 The way he says he doesn't dream

01:21:07.860 Did he say he doesn't really watch movies or anything

01:21:10.580 Oh

01:21:12.120 Or read novels

01:21:13.740 And he doesn't dream

01:21:15.660 He just doesn't have

01:21:16.540 Any sort of internal monologue

01:21:18.980 And

01:21:19.260 No real imagination

01:21:25.560 A report came out

01:21:26.940 Or a book came out

01:21:27.800 A few weeks ago

01:21:29.100 That the mainstream media

01:21:30.140 Was reporting on

01:21:30.880 And excerpts from it

01:21:31.800 Said that

01:21:32.200 People that have been in

01:21:33.200 Around him for years

01:21:34.340 Before he was in politics

01:21:36.640 When in the CPS

01:21:37.860 And when he was in opposition

01:21:38.820 And now in government

01:21:39.660 They've described him as

01:21:42.120 sort of profoundly incurious he's not interested in why things are the way they are

01:21:50.440 or how we ended up in a certain situation for whatever reason he's not curious as a person

01:21:56.720 as a man as a mind an intellect he doesn't care why things are the way they are is that not a

01:22:05.000 terrible thing to have in a leader when you want the exact opposite of that when you want someone

01:22:11.420 that's intellectually endlessly curious surely that's so much better all right he's some sort

01:22:18.000 of weird robot man isn't he some sort of freak of nature something wickedly again says my son

01:22:24.820 watched south park and carry on films okay i really like south park it's kind of a bit woke

01:22:33.700 though isn't it in recent times a little bit every time to time they show their their liberal streak

01:22:39.160 Gross

01:22:41.300 Trump derangement syndrome

01:22:43.240 Full blown Trump derangement syndrome

01:22:44.840 Sounds like it's not as good as it was

01:22:47.900 In my opinion

01:22:48.500 And the carry-on films

01:22:50.180 Some I like

01:22:52.700 Some I think are genuinely funny

01:22:53.880 Some are a bit boring and not all that funny

01:22:56.100 Some are much better than others, right?

01:22:58.280 Surely you agree with me with that

01:22:59.380 Some are good though, right? Classics

01:23:01.780 Right

01:23:03.120 Emilia Forrestore says

01:23:06.020 Zendaya looks like a Denisovan

01:23:08.620 It's propaganda

01:23:10.120 For anyone who might not know

01:23:11.780 Deva Sovan is an early hominid

01:23:14.840 An early form of human

01:23:18.140 Not really a modern human

01:23:23.660 That's quite funny

01:23:28.300 Yeah, no, yeah

01:23:29.720 That's what, like, woke Hollywood

01:23:32.300 And all sorts of woke businesses and advertising

01:23:34.180 They'll try and push someone that's not good looking

01:23:36.520 Try and push them as though they're

01:23:38.440 a paragon of beauty now no no no no it's in the eye of the beholder i'll make up my own mind what

01:23:44.420 i find beautiful and not zendaya's not really again not that she's ugly come on but is she in

01:23:53.320 the top 0.000001 percent of most beautiful women that needs to be on the front of papers all the

01:23:59.920 time and is a hollywood starlet no not even close really is it all right brendan lucas says

01:24:07.560 I'm Generation Z, Bo

01:24:10.180 I don't know what a nightclub is

01:24:12.280 Don't worry

01:24:14.780 Every morning is my Saturday night

01:24:18.380 And you are the only

01:24:20.820 Six for me

01:24:22.020 Yeah, me pouring shade

01:24:25.160 At Zendaya, like I'm some sort of

01:24:27.140 I don't know, I'm not all that

01:24:31.080 I'm a middle aged dude

01:24:32.700 I'm a bald middle aged dude, I know

01:24:34.120 I know I'm a five, I'm a six maybe

01:24:35.960 In the right light

01:24:36.980 A six

01:24:37.620 But then

01:24:41.460 That's it

01:24:41.860 I'm not claiming to be

01:24:43.200 A Hollywood star

01:24:44.580 You know

01:24:44.800 I'll never claim to be

01:24:46.100 Anything other than that

01:24:47.240 Would I

01:24:47.560 Like I'm a paradigm of

01:24:51.820 Paragon of

01:24:55.040 Handsomeness

01:24:56.440 No

01:24:58.080 It must be really bad

01:25:00.600 For people that genuinely are

01:25:01.720 Like you've got to be

01:25:02.580 Extremely good looking

01:25:03.560 Because your whole

01:25:04.280 Life and career

01:25:05.380 rests on it

01:25:06.380 right and then you get old and haggard

01:25:09.360 and

01:25:09.940 that must be terrible that must be really bad

01:25:15.260 psychologically for you

01:25:16.840 best to have a personality

01:25:20.920 as a backup right

01:25:22.500 best to read

01:25:25.400 things and find out things and

01:25:26.980 be interesting

01:25:28.160 instead of relying on what

01:25:31.200 your bone structure

01:25:32.740 alright

01:25:35.160 what else have we got here sam jones sam jones at our team is that what that is one wrong word

01:25:44.940 sam joseph says headlines forgot to mention about sharon osborne attending the rally oh yeah that

01:25:51.260 tommy romerson rally tommy going to meet trump as for epstein especially i mean especially

01:25:58.720 mean Epstein as for Epstein he is so protected due to the high figures he knocked about with

01:26:04.140 so sure he is alive so you're saying you're sure he is alive fair enough I mean he might be my

01:26:11.240 personal opinion and take is that he's not but he might be if he did turn up and it was proven 100

01:26:16.640 that he was alive I wouldn't be massively surprised I wouldn't be like oh wow my whole

01:26:23.980 my whole ability to perceive reality has got to be re rejigged now no it could be it could be

01:26:30.080 i don't think so but it right it could be oh sharon osborne is going to the the tommy rally

01:26:36.160 sounds about right sounds about tommy's speed yeah get sharon osborne on why not

01:26:43.580 jensen paul gaultier doesn't say anything

01:26:50.020 it just gives a little bit of money there so thank you that thank you for that

01:26:53.420 something wickedly again says next you just you just say next reform clown

01:26:59.480 i don't know what that's i won't know what that's in relation to

01:27:04.680 the sentiment in and of itself is good but where you would have put that in response to something

01:27:12.220 i'm saying i would have thought i now don't know what that would be so if you send in super chats

01:27:17.600 try and build into what you say the whole context of it because a lot of people well a fair few

01:27:24.620 times we get a super chat and um it's devoid of the context so okay next reform clown okay sorry

01:27:34.200 i don't know what that means exactly okay verug 231 says my theory for why we call private schools

01:27:40.640 public schools is that they were public when compared to private tutors no idea if that's

01:27:46.720 true not a bad idea yeah i did know the actual reason it goes back a few centuries it goes back

01:27:54.780 a few centuries what is it um i can't remember i'll have to look it up but it's just a very

01:28:02.200 very antiquated old-fashioned usage of the word basically what it is okay tux034 says

01:28:11.200 oh what's your favorite sausages oh i do like sausages

01:28:15.640 nearly all sausages i like everything from like the most processed herta wiener

01:28:24.360 crappy processed hot dogs all the way through up to like the most gourmet luxury handmade sausages

01:28:35.520 Where they're like ridiculously expensive

01:28:38.860 And they've got like

01:28:39.740 All sorts of expensive elements to it

01:28:44.380 All of it

01:28:45.180 Very rarely

01:28:46.800 Very rarely sausage you don't like

01:28:49.160 What she said

01:28:52.200 Alright

01:28:53.480 No, love sausages me

01:28:54.900 I think I must have mentioned it more than once right

01:28:56.300 Yeah

01:28:57.080 Love them

01:28:58.500 Delish

01:29:00.320 Okay

01:29:01.340 Something wickedly again says

01:29:02.620 me and ant middleton in a rowing boat don't know what you're talking about sorry

01:29:08.200 shona that should be shown we're giving it what's that in relation to you've just put me

01:29:14.140 and ant middleton in a rowing boat a funny interesting image i suppose but what what do

01:29:21.520 you mean all right let's move on brandon lucas says that uk murderer wouldn't look out of place

01:29:29.740 That black dude

01:29:30.980 Yeah

01:29:32.200 Wouldn't look out of place

01:29:33.600 On the deck of

01:29:34.640 The HMS Victory

01:29:35.980 While crossing the Somme

01:29:37.600 With our flag

01:29:38.300 Right

01:29:38.480 Or one of

01:29:41.560 Baudelaire's

01:29:42.440 Screaming Druids

01:29:43.520 Yeah he's so English

01:29:44.500 Wasn't he

01:29:44.860 That

01:29:45.080 That black dude

01:29:46.860 That went on the

01:29:47.360 Killsbury in America

01:29:48.140 Who was born in Britain

01:29:49.480 So British

01:29:51.480 Yeah

01:29:51.820 Yeah

01:29:53.420 To swap him for

01:29:54.520 Crew for the HMS Victory

01:29:56.420 And Admiral Lord Nelson

01:30:00.020 Beat the French

01:30:00.740 At the Battle of Trafalgar

01:30:01.540 Of course

01:30:01.940 Super super English thing

01:30:04.080 British thing

01:30:05.460 Yeah

01:30:07.940 I know

01:30:08.580 I know

01:30:09.200 But he was born in England

01:30:11.680 Therefore he is a Brit

01:30:13.340 The madness of that logic

01:30:17.320 Doesn't make sense

01:30:20.480 Doesn't add up

01:30:21.240 Not a Brit is he

01:30:22.440 Can't be

01:30:23.140 He cannot be

01:30:24.600 Will never be

01:30:26.340 A Brit, a true Brit

01:30:28.200 There's a racial and ethnic element to that

01:30:31.460 There is one, I'm afraid

01:30:32.680 Sam Jones, our team again, says

01:30:43.740 Love seeing how much your channel is growing

01:30:45.940 Thank you, are you talking about the state of politics, perhaps?

01:30:48.580 Or just this channel, either way, yes

01:30:50.420 Pardon me

01:30:53.020 Everything's growing, it's good

01:30:54.960 The momentum is with us, isn't it?

01:31:00.580 Not the weirdo, bleeding heart liberals

01:31:03.580 And disgusting, traitorous commies

01:31:05.480 Anymore

01:31:06.960 Alright

01:31:09.200 Brendan Lucas again says

01:31:11.660 It makes sense Newton was complicated

01:31:13.720 As a personality

01:31:15.380 Doctor Who told me he was Indian

01:31:19.100 So likely he had trouble fitting in

01:31:25.660 Yeah

01:31:25.880 Can you think of something much more

01:31:29.280 Subversive and in my opinion

01:31:30.960 Disgusting

01:31:31.880 Than that

01:31:33.820 Let's race swap Isaac Newton with an Indian

01:31:37.300 Not that it's part of the story

01:31:43.020 Or the narrative that they're in an alternate reality

01:31:45.160 No

01:31:45.640 Just that

01:31:49.400 Isaac Newton is an Indian man

01:31:52.640 You don't notice

01:31:54.700 Late 17th century, early 16th century

01:31:59.980 Sir Isaac Newton

01:32:01.480 His ancestors were from the subcontinent of India

01:32:05.340 Now

01:32:06.000 Okay

01:32:08.120 Okay

01:32:09.100 Mental, revolting

01:32:13.020 Revolting

01:32:15.420 Never goes the other way, does it?

01:32:18.880 Never goes the other way

01:32:19.660 Like they make a documentary about Tipu Sultan

01:32:22.680 And cast Johnny Lee Miller

01:32:26.380 As Tipu Sultan

01:32:27.700 No, no, no, that would be racist

01:32:29.000 That would be mad

01:32:29.620 Why would they do that?

01:32:31.620 That would be a really weird and racist thing to do, wouldn't it?

01:32:35.400 What an insult that would be to Indian history

01:32:37.500 To do that

01:32:38.240 The other way round

01:32:40.800 Fine, don't even notice

01:32:42.600 If you notice it

01:32:43.520 You've got an issue with it

01:32:44.760 you're the problem

01:32:45.960 alright

01:32:51.720 Brendan Lucas says

01:32:53.140 to be fair

01:32:53.900 Scotland got revenge

01:32:54.900 for the battle of Culloden

01:32:55.860 when Alex Salmond

01:32:57.680 beat John Prescott

01:32:59.080 at the pie eating contest

01:33:00.840 the dream will never die

01:33:03.080 they're both deceased now aren't they

01:33:08.080 Alex Salmond and John Prescott

01:33:10.060 right

01:33:10.400 Alex Salmond certainly is

01:33:12.940 isn't he

01:33:14.060 anyway yeah

01:33:14.740 both of those men

01:33:16.940 did enjoy a pyre

01:33:18.120 didn't they

01:33:18.760 speaking of the dead

01:33:21.800 they were pyre eaters

01:33:26.020 Lee Clegg

01:33:28.620 Lee Clegg 7162 says

01:33:30.840 many atrocities

01:33:33.680 after the clans

01:33:35.080 the lot

01:33:36.900 many atrocities

01:33:38.560 after clans

01:33:39.660 the lot

01:33:40.240 yeah

01:33:43.920 The Duke of Cumberland's men

01:33:45.400 Went in

01:33:47.040 The Highland Clearances

01:33:48.180 That's what they call it right

01:33:49.080 Something approaching what

01:33:53.980 Today

01:33:54.740 We would call

01:33:56.100 Ethnic cleansing

01:33:56.760 Something like that

01:33:57.400 Not a full

01:33:58.260 Ethnic cleansing but

01:33:59.280 Getting there

01:34:01.600 Close to that

01:34:02.520 If not that

01:34:03.340 Certainly atrocious

01:34:06.220 By modern standards

01:34:08.100 By modern standards

01:34:08.980 Remember it's the 18th century

01:34:10.800 Different time

01:34:13.780 It's an anachronism to judge them by our morality

01:34:16.600 Isn't it

01:34:17.260 Alright okay

01:34:20.360 LJMV

01:34:22.620 Last two LJMV says

01:34:24.080 Need to get Dolph Lundgren

01:34:26.460 On the breeding program

01:34:29.500 Oh right because Dolph Lundgren's genetics are amazing

01:34:32.000 I remember I've seen Sylvester

01:34:36.360 More than one person but certainly Sylvester Stallone

01:34:38.600 Talk about Dolph Lundgren

01:34:40.360 And how he's just like

01:34:42.500 Some sort of was

01:34:43.620 He's old now isn't he

01:34:45.260 Back in the 80s or whatever

01:34:47.360 Dolph Lundgren's genetics

01:34:49.080 He was just a specimen of a man

01:34:50.900 He was just almost like a perfect example of a human being

01:34:53.720 Ridiculously tall

01:34:55.600 Ridiculously strong

01:34:57.780 Crazy cardio

01:34:59.360 Great facial

01:35:03.040 Structure, great hair

01:35:05.120 On top of everything, Dolph Lundgren I believe

01:35:07.480 Is something of a genius, hasn't he got a PhD?

01:35:09.220 Or two PhDs or something

01:35:10.580 stuff longer like the perfect human ever to have lived

01:35:15.440 okay all right and last one ljmv says

01:35:20.880 bo i'm sure you i'm sure you love uh the meaty sausages

01:35:27.040 laughing crying emoji yeah no homo i love sausages

01:35:36.240 Someone can clip that

01:35:38.660 Can't they

01:35:39.060 It's impossible to make content

01:35:41.660 And not say things

01:35:43.220 That can get you

01:35:44.660 Can get clipped

01:35:45.360 And make you look silly

01:35:46.040 Just deal with it

01:35:47.500 Just lean into it
