00:00:24.160 Thursday the 8th

00:00:25.760 Sorry Thursday the 4th of June

00:00:27.820 In the year of our Lord 2026

00:00:29.360 it's just ticked past eight in the a.m british summertime as always i'm joined by my producer

00:00:33.840 little harry how are you this morning good sir morning i'm all good

00:00:39.600 the disembodied voice of the all-powerful all-knowing producer at the controls

00:00:45.360 did we stop faffing about though

00:00:49.040 why all this why all this fannying about it's not necessary is it let's just get straight into it

00:00:53.920 Top Cop Sorry

00:00:56.980 Remember Dangerfield yesterday and me

00:01:00.140 Saying about

00:01:02.800 How the way they

00:01:04.620 The cadence

00:01:06.960 The type of writing they use for their headlines

00:01:09.000 Top Cop Sorry

00:01:09.960 Okay alright

00:01:12.740 That's how you want to phrase it

00:01:14.260 It's like

00:01:16.720 They think they're speaking to complete 1.00

00:01:18.640 Morons isn't it 1.00

00:01:20.100 Like the simplest possible childlike writing 0.99

00:01:23.080 Top Cop Sorry

00:01:25.040 And Prince of Pubs

00:01:27.360 That story is that the Prince of Wales

00:01:32.400 Is the Prince of Pubs now, apparently

00:01:34.120 He went to a pub

00:01:35.120 Well he said actually, quite a weird statement

00:01:38.380 We'll get into it in a moment

00:01:39.380 But he said he grew up in pubs, did he?

00:01:45.180 He grew up on Royal Estates, in palaces

00:01:47.680 He didn't grow up in pubs

00:01:49.620 Weird, what an odd thing to say

00:01:50.900 okay top cop sorry and prince of pubs the express it's a good paper

00:01:55.080 oh this is a story look three navy crew dead i mean in helicopter training crash yeah

00:02:06.580 yeah it's pretty much we don't know exactly what happened other than it seems like the

00:02:11.660 helicopter what was it a merlin one of those merlin ones navy one just training in devon

00:02:18.020 Not a million miles from where I'm sitting

00:02:19.720 Three people on board and they all died

00:02:23.660 That's it, we don't know exactly what happened

00:02:27.520 Other than that some reports were that

00:02:29.280 People heard just shortly before it crashed

00:02:31.740 That the rotors didn't sound right

00:02:33.760 It sounded like it was in some sort of technical

00:02:35.840 It was failing technically in some way

00:02:38.060 Of course it's too early to know exactly

00:02:41.340 The details of it

00:02:43.820 It wasn't shut down or anything

00:02:45.080 So it was just an accident

00:02:46.540 Alright, well, that's in the news a bit today

00:02:51.260 So, alright

00:02:53.380 Senior cop says sorry to family

00:02:57.560 And admits arrest footage is difficult to watch

00:03:00.960 Oh, well, okay, yeah, it is

00:03:03.040 Police chief apology for Henry Novak tragedy

00:03:06.360 Like, an apology isn't any good, is it?

00:03:12.800 I've always found that odd

00:03:14.520 That for some reason in our society

00:03:16.440 These days

00:03:17.820 Like apologies are supposed to mean anything

00:03:21.600 Anything

00:03:22.300 It doesn't really mean anything

00:03:25.200 Oh I'm sorry

00:03:26.960 Well okay good great you're sorry

00:03:29.100 Well done

00:03:29.760 That doesn't help

00:03:32.960 It doesn't change anything

00:03:34.120 What's that worth

00:03:38.740 That the police chief's sorry

00:03:40.760 That it's front page news

00:03:42.740 That he's sorry

00:03:43.320 So

00:03:44.360 it's not the head of all the police it's just the head of the police force handling of southampton

00:03:52.820 the southampton area was it hampshire or something yeah the hampshire police constable said

00:03:58.080 i mean like when um the legacy corporate mainstream media or hope not hate or something or other

00:04:05.860 think you've done something wrong you've transgressed in their eyes and they demand an

00:04:10.320 apology carol volderman demands an apology from the reform candidate or something like

00:04:16.160 it's the whole thing is performative fake nonsense isn't it even if you did apologize

00:04:20.480 they don't care that's not good enough so what's the what's the point of it all

00:04:24.000 this is obviously a different type of dynamic going on here a police chief's apology after

00:04:31.280 henry novak's killing but still like what's it worth it's all just it's all just performative

00:04:37.440 and of no value

00:04:38.500 it wouldn't be to me

00:04:40.540 it wouldn't be to me if it was a member of my family

00:04:43.660 that those cops had just let

00:04:45.580 bleed out

00:04:46.480 oh you're sorry are you

00:04:49.400 I don't think so mate

00:04:50.320 there you go look

00:04:54.600 Prince William opening a pub somewhere in London 0.97

00:04:56.780 some little black girl comes up to him

00:04:58.840 hugs him 1.00

00:04:59.320 snap let's have that all over the front pages

00:05:02.540 it's not news is it

00:05:04.720 Prince of Hugs

00:05:06.820 Alright, the Daily Mail

00:05:12.400 Talk about

00:05:13.960 Talk about sometimes

00:05:15.420 Sort of the truly subversive nature

00:05:18.440 Of a lot of the papers

00:05:19.440 It might be some sort of insert

00:05:21.580 Or effectively an ad

00:05:22.880 But nonetheless they put it right at the top

00:05:24.500 Of the front page

00:05:25.400 Look, this Harrodin, whoever it is

00:05:28.920 No idea who that is 1.00

00:05:30.000 She says, sponges, cheats and liars 0.96

00:05:32.360 Everything I've learned about men in a lifetime of dating 0.97

00:05:34.740 Alright, is it? Great, fine, good

00:05:36.680 Thanks to Daily Mail

00:05:38.300 Yeah, just try and break up human relationships 1.00

00:05:41.360 The dynamic between men and women 1.00

00:05:42.860 Could say anything, right? 1.00

00:05:46.540 Don't have liberty to put anything on their front page

00:05:48.160 Any opinion

00:05:49.060 If they want to put an opinion piece thing

00:05:50.820 Front and centre like that

00:05:51.740 Could be on anything 0.98

00:05:52.700 But no, it's some rotten old harridan 0.98

00:05:56.500 Talking about how evil men are in general 0.99

00:05:58.460 Okay

00:05:59.860 How often do they have it? 0.93

00:06:01.220 Why I was cheating on their husbands 0.99

00:06:02.780 Why it's a good idea 1.00

00:06:03.520 Women, why you shouldn't have kids 1.00

00:06:05.520 All that sort of stuff 1.00

00:06:06.260 The male, I keep telling you

00:06:10.640 The male is as subversive as any of the others

00:06:15.400 As much as the Guardian or the Metro or whatever 1.00

00:06:18.840 They just wear the skin suit 1.00

00:06:21.460 Trying to throw out a little bit of red meat from time to time 1.00

00:06:23.660 To make you think they're patriotic in some way 1.00

00:06:25.500 They're not 0.99

00:06:25.860 They're complete filth 0.98

00:06:27.580 Utter, utter filth 0.97

00:06:28.720 Tory's call for Henry police to be investigated

00:06:32.940 Yeah, well done

00:06:33.680 Well done

00:06:35.160 There's the argument

00:06:41.060 We'll get to it in a bit

00:06:42.820 About Nigel

00:06:43.540 It was PMQs yesterday wasn't it

00:06:46.580 And Nigel stands up

00:06:49.360 And asks a question in parliament

00:06:50.700 And then the immediate reaction to that

00:06:53.440 Both in real time from Sir Quir Starlin

00:06:55.580 And in certain portions of the media

00:06:58.080 Is that Nigel is simply

00:06:59.980 Exploiting the death

00:07:01.280 The murder of Henry Novak

00:07:03.140 That's what he's doing

00:07:03.700 He's exploiting it for his own political ends

00:07:07.860 And then that's evil and wrong of him

00:07:11.020 I don't buy that

00:07:15.580 I don't buy that narrative

00:07:17.460 Or rather, perhaps there is an element of truth to it

00:07:22.320 But don't the other side do it? 0.97

00:07:24.700 Right? 0.76

00:07:25.280 For example

00:07:26.400 Take the arson attack on those Jewish ambulances the other week

00:07:32.520 Was that not

00:07:37.880 Quote unquote

00:07:39.020 Exploited

00:07:39.960 By them 1.00

00:07:42.780 Where a couple of Jewish people

00:07:45.460 Got stabbed non-fatally

00:07:47.300 In Golders Green the other week 1.00

00:07:48.680 Was that not exploited

00:07:50.740 By the other side

00:07:53.000 By their side

00:07:53.920 By the sort of

00:07:55.680 Well exploited all over the place 0.95

00:07:57.560 Oh but when it's a white person 0.97

00:07:59.380 You're supposed to never ever mention it 0.91

00:08:02.520 i suppose otherwise you're just you're cynically exploiting the murder of someone

00:08:07.840 what no i think we should be allowed to talk about it i've had that a number of times on twitter two

00:08:16.380 or three or four times two or three times out of the blue there's no anniversary or anything i've

00:08:20.780 just tweeted about lee rigby r.i.p lee rigby remember lee rigby something like that i remember

00:08:25.380 emily jones and a lot most of the people were like yeah yeah r.i.p yeah so terrible so sad

00:08:31.800 And every now and again you get some crazy 0.99

00:08:34.200 Traitorous lefty commie 1.00

00:08:35.700 Or some Muslim or something 1.00

00:08:37.240 Saying oh don't exploit it

00:08:39.100 Don't you remember their parents

00:08:41.580 Asking it not to be exploited

00:08:43.340 So I'm supposed to

00:08:45.540 We're supposed to memory hole 0.99

00:08:47.480 Any white murder 0.98

00:08:48.680 Supposed to memory hole it forever 0.97

00:08:51.460 Never ever ever talk about it

00:08:53.540 No no no no no

00:08:55.740 No no no

00:08:56.460 I don't think so

00:08:57.640 I will talk about it

00:08:59.740 I talk about whatever I want, within reason.

00:09:03.880 I talk about whatever I want, if it doesn't break any actual laws.

00:09:09.920 I talk about the murder of Henry Novak, if I want to.

00:09:13.380 Nigel should be able to.

00:09:15.260 Rupert, anyone.

00:09:17.300 When the Tories, though, because the Tories are deep in the blob, aren't they?

00:09:21.680 They really are the uni party.

00:09:24.040 When Tories call for Henry police to be investigated,

00:09:26.020 No one's particularly accusing Olukemi Badenoch of exploiting it

00:09:30.100 Just Nigel

00:09:31.200 At this point, just Nigel

00:09:34.040 Okay

00:09:34.320 Just take your people being marginalised and exploited 0.98

00:09:43.900 Murdered, raped, tortured, trafficked

00:09:46.040 Just take that in silence 0.97

00:09:47.640 That's what they're effectively asking for, isn't it?

00:09:52.320 Just keep your mouth shut

00:09:54.360 When you experience injustices

00:09:56.160 Oh, oh really?

00:10:00.000 That's what we...

00:10:00.540 No, I don't think so, not anymore

00:10:03.380 No, no, no, I'm not going to do that

00:10:05.240 I'm not having that

00:10:06.560 No, I'll talk about Henry Novak all I like

00:10:09.000 Later we might see a headline

00:10:12.880 Where the police investigation say

00:10:14.880 People need to stop speculating

00:10:17.320 No, no, no, I'll speculate

00:10:18.620 No, I'll talk about it, thank you

00:10:20.780 Until you pass an actual law 0.75

00:10:23.220 Muzzling us completely 0.98

00:10:25.020 And even then I probably wouldn't 1.00

00:10:28.360 Don't speculate about it

00:10:31.400 No

00:10:33.560 We've had the trial for the killer

00:10:35.760 And the body cam footage has been released

00:10:37.440 Into the public domain

00:10:38.580 We'll speculate all we want

00:10:40.180 We'll talk about it all we want

00:10:41.380 Thank you

00:10:42.260 Thank you

00:10:42.960 Okay a little bit about Mandy

00:10:48.200 They moved on from Mandy quite quickly didn't they

00:10:50.780 What was it? Tuesday was the big Mandy day.

00:10:53.880 We OD'd on Mandy on Tuesday, didn't we?

00:10:57.500 Mandelson News, not the truck.

00:11:00.440 It's a little bit here, though.

00:11:01.980 Excruciating newly leaked WhatsApps from Starmer's closest ally on Mandelson and Reeves.

00:11:07.980 It's just a duplicitous backstabbing sort of bitchy gossip, isn't he? 0.96

00:11:11.540 Among other things, as well as being a full-blown traitor, 0.98

00:11:14.240 working on behalf of a foreign entity, a foreign agent,

00:11:16.840 so there's been a mole inside our government for Jeffrey Epstein,

00:11:19.600 And then who knows who

00:11:21.020 Ehud Barak

00:11:21.880 Been doing such a great job

00:11:25.880 Doesn't fill you with confidence

00:11:29.360 So he just

00:11:30.160 These whatsapp messages are quite

00:11:33.140 Funny stroke embarrassing

00:11:35.440 Embarrassing for them

00:11:36.160 Funny for us

00:11:36.920 Okay

00:11:46.520 Mandelson's a gossipy

00:11:49.580 Sort of 1.00

00:11:50.300 Bitchy person 1.00

00:11:51.340 Like we didn't know 1.00

00:12:38.880 stab victim arrest force pressured by a racism course it's all the anti-racism DEI

00:12:48.660 training that they're forced to do one in five police officers and staff feared saying wrong

00:12:55.260 thing after mandatory diversity training yeah they've done it all across the length and breadth

00:13:01.060 of our society haven't they are you out there and you've just got some sort of basically essentially

00:13:05.700 A relatively normal job

00:13:07.300 But they've forced mandatory diversity training on you

00:13:11.000 Yeah, I bet there's loads of you

00:13:12.560 I bet there's loads of you

00:13:14.140 And they've sat you down in a little room 0.94

00:13:15.980 They've either got some absolute cretinous socialist 0.61

00:13:19.620 Or a colour of person standing at the front

00:13:21.900 Saying, one way or another 0.99

00:13:24.780 Saying, you've got to put people of colour ahead of white people 1.00

00:13:29.980 That's where your headspace needs to be 0.99

00:13:33.440 That's what you need to be thinking 0.98

00:13:34.480 To actively discriminate against white people

00:13:40.660 That's what anti-racism is

00:13:44.080 That's what diversity and inclusion is 0.97

00:13:47.220 Less white people 0.85

00:13:48.200 Less fairness for white people 0.70

00:13:51.380 It's not being colourblind, is it? 1.00

00:13:57.120 Not that I think being colourblind is a good idea

00:13:59.840 so it needs to be it needs to be reversed doesn't it we need to put our own people first that's my 0.66

00:14:09.000 feeling the police the police and the army to do mandatory diversity training for the police 0.80

00:14:18.620 and the army what an evil thing what an evil thing so now cops right no wonder they'll turn 0.65

00:14:27.980 up to a scene well not no wonder but you can see how they might turn up to a scene 0.50

00:14:34.020 and a brown person has said racism a racism has happened they're like oh okay we'll give that top

00:14:43.060 priority among everything that's going on in this chaotic scene we'll give that top priority because 0.65

00:14:49.960 they've basically been told to act like that to be like that to think like that they've been told

00:14:55.700 You know, on pain of losing your job or whatever

00:14:58.420 Or never ever getting promotion

00:15:00.020 All those sorts of things

00:15:08.660 Thanks Baroness Lawrence

00:15:12.400 Thanks Cameron

00:15:14.140 Thanks Blair

00:15:14.980 Starmer aides so sorry to Mandelson on day of firing

00:15:22.600 This is the story of that guy Darren Jones

00:15:25.120 who is the chief secretary he's an mp isn't he darren jones mp isn't it um and he's the chief

00:15:31.820 secretary to the prime minister at the moment in the cabinet office i believe anyway on the day

00:15:36.920 they had to fire mandelson which was like what september last year wasn't it september um if

00:15:45.700 you remember only a day or two before so quiz starling had gone before parliament said mr

00:15:52.860 Moundersen still has my full support, my full backing, the full confidence of the Prime Minister.

00:16:00.360 Even though the whole house of cards had begun to collapse already at that point,

00:16:06.420 a day or so later they were like, okay, we've got, there's too much pressure here, there's too much

00:16:11.220 there, there. So we've got to fire him. So they did. And Darren Jones, when he had to tell Starmer,

00:16:18.520 was so sorry i'm just so sorry lord manderson was so sorry because he leaves it still at that point

00:16:25.420 anyway manson was still you know one of the biggest beasts in the party still extremely

00:16:30.920 powerful even if he was just about to be toppled they probably didn't know the extent of all the

00:16:38.220 fallout how long and seismic the fallout from it all would be so he's still groveling to manderson 0.93

00:16:46.400 so sorry sorry for what that mandelson lived a nefarious crazy traitorous life 0.52

00:17:26.260 There is William Saxe-Coburg-Gother

00:17:29.140 Tending to be a normal person in a pub

00:17:31.620 He's eyeing up a pint there, look

00:17:34.580 You're a normal working class bloke, aren't you?

00:17:37.240 You like pints, don't you?

00:17:57.480 And have been four years

00:17:59.300 Some police at Novak Murder Row Force

00:18:02.520 The writing

00:18:06.200 Some police at Novak Murder Row Force

00:18:09.560 Say they felt controlled during race bias training

00:18:14.440 Yeah, well that's the whole point

00:18:15.320 It's an exercise in power

00:18:16.480 That's the whole point

00:18:17.900 Yeah, it's an exercise in power 1.00

00:18:20.020 It's an exercise in non-white people 1.00

00:18:22.120 Putting their thumb on the forehead of white people 1.00

00:18:25.440 And pushing them down 0.99

00:18:26.480 By definition it's anti-white, isn't it?

00:18:33.760 Diversity and inclusion 0.96

00:18:35.120 Anti-racism

00:18:37.740 You just mean racism against white people?

00:18:41.320 That's all it is

00:18:42.080 You felt controlled, yes

00:18:44.580 Because that's the nature of it

00:18:46.120 That's the whole raison d'etre of it

00:18:52.120 The whole reason for being

00:18:55.480 Is to make you

00:18:57.620 Is to control you

00:18:58.820 To make you feel controlled

00:18:59.960 So yeah

00:19:02.080 Alright

00:19:04.820 The Guardian

00:19:27.100 Are you kidding me?

00:19:29.420 Are you kidding me?

00:19:32.580 Joanna Stern 0.98

00:19:33.380 Don't know who that is 0.84

00:19:34.240 It's a muppet

00:19:42.080 Ridiculous 1.00

00:19:42.480 Absolutely ridiculous 0.99

00:19:44.540 A large language model

00:19:47.120 Are you going to let a large language model

00:19:48.820 Alright

00:19:52.600 Rhetoric on Novak murder

00:19:55.180 Risks pushing police back to the 60s

00:19:57.600 Does it

00:19:57.980 This is a statement

00:20:00.000 I read this article

00:20:00.720 Or most of it

00:20:01.480 Comes from a police

00:20:05.760 Like a police

00:20:08.140 What is it

00:20:09.320 Like a union

00:20:10.480 Effectively

00:20:11.320 Like a police union 1.00

00:20:12.720 For black officers 1.00

00:20:13.880 Just for black officers 1.00

00:20:14.860 And they're moaning about Nigel Farage 0.96

00:20:19.680 Push policing back to the 60s

00:20:26.080 From the point of view of black people 1.00

00:20:28.540 With an ethnic and racial axe to grind 0.99

00:20:32.340 A chip on their shoulder

00:20:34.320 That's shorthand for just racism

00:20:36.780 The policing of the 60s

00:20:38.580 Is evil and terrible and racist

00:20:40.920 So that's what that's shorthand for

00:20:43.360 Rhetoric on Novak murder

00:20:44.900 What Nigel said

00:20:45.900 Risks pushing police back into

00:20:48.580 Old school racism times

00:20:51.020 That's what they're saying

00:20:52.340 To decode that headline for you

00:20:54.920 Does it?

00:20:57.160 Does it?

00:20:58.220 I don't think so actually

00:20:59.100 I don't think so actually

00:21:00.560 I think there's something profoundly wrong with policing

00:21:03.140 Profoundly wrong

00:21:04.740 Not just policing of course

00:21:06.060 But

00:21:06.260 A type of organisation or

00:21:11.000 Type of union, association

00:21:12.900 Association of Black Cops

00:21:15.240 Don't like what Nigel said

00:21:18.140 Or anyone mentioning anything ever

00:21:20.180 Right

00:21:22.660 Okay

00:21:23.500 Okay

00:21:24.460 I see

00:21:30.240 I understand

00:21:32.380 It's like that is it

00:21:33.100 It's going to be like that is it

00:21:34.280 We've been telling you haven't we

00:21:39.160 People like us

00:21:40.460 I mean I'm preaching to the choir here

00:21:41.880 The Glorious Band The Chosen For You

00:21:42.920 You guys know

00:21:43.500 But we've been saying, haven't we

00:21:46.760 For quite a long time

00:21:47.720 Years and years and years

00:21:49.660 Not just Lotus Eaters

00:21:51.120 Not just me

00:21:51.540 But loads of other people

00:21:52.800 For years

00:21:53.980 That this ends in sectarianism

00:21:57.740 If you flood 0.99

00:22:00.040 A homogenous society 1.00

00:22:01.800 With new people 0.58

00:22:03.540 That have got allegiances

00:22:04.440 They've got their own

00:22:05.180 Racial, religious, tribal

00:22:06.860 Sectarian allegiances

00:22:10.740 It doesn't end well

00:22:13.040 The idea of a multi-ethnic, multi-racial, multi-cultural society

00:22:16.360 That is somehow a strength 0.67

00:22:18.000 Let alone a society's greatest strength

00:22:21.600 That's a lie

00:22:22.460 That's not true

00:22:23.580 That's just not true 1.00

00:22:25.220 Okay, this woman 0.99

00:22:29.320 I don't really follow tennis all that much 1.00

00:22:31.080 Might watch the last week of Wimbledon a bit

00:22:34.180 That's about as far as it goes for me 0.99

00:22:35.480 This woman is apparently the best female tennis player in the world 0.90

00:22:40.740 And she crashed out of the French Open and she lost 10 games in a row, not 10 matches, 10 games in a row and lost that match.

00:22:48.420 And she's like rage quitting or something, she says she just wants to, or she kicks a tennis ball at one of the ball boys or something?

00:22:54.720 I don't know, who cares?

00:22:56.640 The news is talking about it a bit today.

00:22:59.700 Sorry you were sacked, PM ally, I told Mandelson.

00:23:02.940 Again, that Darren Jones.

00:23:05.020 His name, Darren Jones.

00:23:06.740 Yeah.

00:23:06.840 I'm sorry, we've got to let you go, Peter

00:23:10.760 Terribly sorry, old boy

00:23:12.480 I say, old boy, what jolly rotten luck, eh?

00:23:17.900 I don't think Darren Jones speaks like that, actually

00:23:19.480 He's not like Terry Thomas

00:23:21.020 Hard cheese, old boy

00:23:22.800 Alright

00:23:28.840 The Independent

00:23:30.940 Look at that picture

00:23:32.240 Says a lot, doesn't it?

00:23:36.840 People coming to the end of their tether

00:23:40.000 It's like we see you

00:23:42.840 We see what you're doing

00:23:44.200 We see how you behave

00:23:46.380 What you are

00:23:48.160 I'll talk about this a little bit with Nate

00:23:51.580 On State of Politics

00:23:52.920 Last night on a video that might come out later today

00:23:55.840 Or maybe tomorrow

00:23:56.500 About

00:23:59.440 I mean let's talk about it

00:24:00.640 The nature of going to these protests

00:24:03.420 And throwing bricks at cops like this

00:24:06.840 you know there's the argument that the police are you know the apparatus of the state the actual

00:24:13.800 the strong arm the actual hand of the state and that they're responsible and to blame in some

00:24:21.520 ways for everything that's going on or the argument the one i was actually saying is that

00:24:27.700 like for example this individual cop whoever this is or that that individual cop there

00:24:33.160 they weren't personally responsible for anything that went on that night when henry novak was

00:24:39.060 killed and right now can't do anything about it can't turn the clock back

00:24:44.440 like what's the point in what's the point in throwing a brick at this this dude

00:24:50.320 i mean make your own mind up i was saying i'm of the mind of you know sometimes when a corporation

00:24:59.900 a big corporation like your internet provider say something like that they've screwed you over

00:25:05.740 they've charged you too much they're just taking the complete mickey out of you and and it's a

00:25:10.820 problem in your life let's just say your telephone or internet provider you ring up you ring them up

00:25:16.280 and you get through to some call center somewhere else in the world in india in ireland you speak to

00:25:23.260 some like 19 year old kid on the end of the phone that cannot help you right they can't help you

00:25:32.700 there's nothing they can do they can't change the policy of that giant corporation

00:25:39.660 everyone must have found themselves in that situation or something similar to that

00:25:46.460 i always well i never start shouting at that kid on the other end of the phone

00:25:51.100 start having a go at them because it's not their fault right it's not that individual person's

00:25:57.660 fault be angry at the corporation sure on the leaders of that corporation because they're

00:26:04.520 responsible they're the ones that made the policies and set it all up and they're the

00:26:07.620 ones ultimately screwing you over the kid on the end of the phone of the call center

00:26:12.060 is not their fault

00:26:14.180 i mean they're part of they're part of the problem they're part of that corporation

00:26:20.340 but there's no point shouting at them it won't fix your problem will it i feel the same about 0.80

00:26:29.520 like throwing a brick at a cop like this cop throwing a chucking a wheelie being at him

00:26:36.860 so i understand that the police in general it's part of a bigger apparatus part of a bigger

00:26:42.380 Thing

00:26:43.340 But it doesn't help

00:26:45.740 It doesn't solve anything does it

00:26:47.320 To lob a brick at him 0.99

00:26:50.520 Might hit him in the knee or something 0.99

00:26:53.700 In his ankle and injure him 0.98

00:26:54.900 How does that

00:26:56.500 Then other people say

00:27:00.200 You know if you don't

00:27:02.800 I don't know

00:27:03.820 There's certain things

00:27:04.580 T's and C's

00:27:05.340 I can't actually talk about

00:27:07.740 Everything I would like to talk about

00:27:09.080 In that question

00:27:10.040 That debate

00:27:10.680 Because YouTube T's and C's

00:27:13.240 Because of laws we've got in this country

00:27:15.940 The people in the comments or whatever

00:27:21.180 Can accuse me of sort of

00:27:22.440 Being a coward for not going further into that debate

00:27:26.320 But I can't

00:27:27.480 Without getting the channel struck

00:27:30.240 Or yeeted

00:27:31.100 Or myself arrested

00:27:32.460 I can't talk about it much further

00:27:34.800 It's a worrying situation we find ourselves in, isn't it?

00:27:43.320 No wonder some people

00:27:44.800 Feel like their only recourse is to do something like this

00:27:51.040 Go there 0.98

00:27:51.600 And get bloodied 1.00

00:27:53.680 And bloody them 1.00

00:27:56.540 I'm not condoning it 0.99

00:27:58.660 But no wonder, right?

00:28:00.580 Can you not see why some people feel like they've been absolutely painted into a corner

00:28:10.040 But they've got nowhere else to go

00:28:13.180 Nothing else they could do

00:28:14.700 There's nothing they can say or do other than this

00:28:17.400 Isn't it an act of desperation really?

00:28:20.840 Isn't it?

00:28:23.100 Is that not wild-eyed desperation?

00:28:30.580 Like this guy

00:28:32.340 You can only imagine the calculation in his mind is

00:28:38.900 What else can I do

00:28:40.380 Other than what they want you to do

00:28:43.300 Which is just roll over and take it silently

00:28:46.620 Just take endless injustices against you

00:28:50.760 In silence

00:28:51.980 Roll over

00:28:54.300 Give in

00:29:00.580 It's a powder keg, isn't it? It's a pressure cooker.

00:29:04.580 Is it not? How long can you keep the lid on that pressure cooker?

00:29:09.580 How much weight are you prepared to put on the lid of that pressure cooker before it blows off anyway?

00:29:14.580 Before the sides of the pressure cooker blow out?

00:29:22.580 Leaders unite against Farage for exploiting teenagers' murder. Great.

00:29:30.580 Nigel's the problem now, see how they do it, how they do that, you dare speak up about 0.98

00:29:38.700 it, you're the story now, we'll stop talking about the police and the murder itself, anti-white

00:29:47.580 racism, the culture of anti-racism, all that, we'll stop talking about that, now it's just,

00:29:54.780 now it's just farage and evil hate stoking right-wingers

00:29:59.900 leaders unite against farage for like farage is the problem he's not is he not in this not in

00:30:08.700 this case the statement he did on like what was it monday morning was it tuesday it's a good

00:30:15.260 statement couldn't disagree with anything he said you know me here you know us here at lotus eaters

00:30:21.320 we're restore partisans

00:30:22.760 I'm a restore man

00:30:24.840 through and through

00:30:25.620 at this point

00:30:26.240 Nigel is as much

00:30:29.880 my political enemy

00:30:30.720 as Ed Davey

00:30:31.840 or Olukemi Badunok

00:30:32.940 or Sakir Starmer

00:30:34.300 but he didn't say

00:30:36.200 anything incorrect

00:30:37.000 in that statement

00:30:37.820 did he?

00:30:39.680 I don't think so

00:30:40.420 didn't say anything wrong

00:30:42.580 I would have liked

00:30:44.760 him to have gone further

00:30:46.740 if anything

00:30:47.300 but no

00:30:48.120 now he's the problem

00:30:48.940 all the other leaders

00:30:50.140 unite against him

00:30:51.020 He's just exploiting a teenager's murder

00:30:53.140 So that is it, isn't it?

00:30:56.680 They want you to just

00:30:57.520 When something like this happens

00:30:58.800 Just like this

00:30:59.600 Just don't say a word 1.00

00:31:01.460 You keep your mouth shut, white boy 1.00

00:31:03.120 I mean, am I exaggerating? 1.00

00:31:14.100 Starmer and Badenoch

00:31:15.260 Olukemi Badenoch 0.99

00:31:16.100 The Nigerian woman 1.00

00:31:16.820 Join Commons Anger 1.00

00:31:18.500 After a full MP

00:31:19.880 refuses to condemn violence linked to henry novak case despite families please for calm i'm not

00:31:26.280 interested in the family's plea for calm yeah i'm not really interested in that we've had that we've

00:31:33.080 done that haven't we the nudge units from the home office getting there real quick and train the

00:31:41.000 family the bereaved grieving family up to say some sort of anti-racist sentiment i don't want my

00:31:47.480 society and the whole trajectory of my country to be dictated to by a grieving parent who's

00:31:57.220 been manipulated by a home office nudge unit. No thanks. No thanks. No, I don't think so.

00:32:05.000 No. I'll make up my own mind. Thank you. So if I tweet about Lee Rigby or something,

00:32:12.860 They say, oh my god, it's so gross

00:32:15.660 Don't you remember his parents saying

00:32:17.540 They don't want his death exploited

00:32:19.420 By right-wingers

00:32:20.680 I'm not interested in that

00:32:21.580 Was it Kinsella

00:32:27.180 When she had her brother, was it

00:32:29.500 Killed in knife crime

00:32:30.740 And

00:32:33.180 They trotted her out a number of times

00:32:35.300 Saying things like, all knives should be banned

00:32:37.860 Stuff like that

00:32:39.440 I hope I'm not mischaracterising it

00:32:41.620 Apologies if I am, but it's something like that.

00:32:43.860 Like the scourge of knife crime.

00:32:45.100 Not the people that wield the knives,

00:32:46.680 or what's in their hearts and minds.

00:32:49.480 Knives, knives themselves are the problem.

00:32:53.180 Well, I'm sorry for your loss,

00:32:54.800 but I'm not interested in that.

00:32:56.260 I'm not interested in that take.

00:32:57.380 That's nonsense. 0.95

00:32:59.680 Don't try and feed me that nonsense. 0.96

00:33:02.660 It's very sad that you're bereaved.

00:33:05.440 But perhaps you aren't best placed

00:33:07.200 to have the best perspective.

00:33:08.480 Especially if you've been coached and coerced

00:33:13.300 By our enemies

00:33:15.180 Oh, the family's plea for calm

00:33:19.760 Not interested

00:33:20.560 Not interested in that

00:33:22.940 How long's that going to work?

00:33:26.280 The cynical exploitation of a grieving family

00:33:28.860 Really?

00:33:30.940 Oh, but we're the ones that are in the wrong morally

00:33:33.180 For exploiting the murder

00:33:35.280 Nigel and us that talk about it

00:33:38.480 We're the ones doing the exploiting

00:33:40.600 Not the people that coach the family

00:33:43.600 Right, okay, right, all right, all right

00:33:46.600 The Daily Mirror, some of the worst slop going

00:33:50.660 Some of the worst Farage Derangement Syndrome

00:33:52.680 Going on Fleet Street

00:33:54.640 They say, after Southampton riots

00:33:57.980 This shows exactly who he is

00:34:00.360 What, someone who's prepared to say what's actually going on?

00:34:05.780 Is that what you mean, the Mirror?

00:34:08.480 Is that what you mean?

00:34:11.100 What do you mean?

00:34:12.260 Exactly who he is.

00:34:15.220 Was someone, at least to some extent,

00:34:18.060 prepared to stand up for

00:34:20.380 the people of these islands?

00:34:31.420 So they're saying,

00:34:32.460 At 12.26pm, Faraj booed in Commons

00:34:36.320 for exploiting teens' death.

00:34:38.940 See the way they frame it?

00:34:40.300 Not that some people, some of his political opponents frame it that way.

00:34:44.480 He just is.

00:34:46.040 It's not a question of whether or not he is exploiting the teen stuff.

00:34:48.600 He just is.

00:34:50.240 According to the mirror.

00:34:51.700 He just is.

00:34:52.660 Then a few hours later, 26 minutes past three, they're timing him.

00:34:56.980 They're timing him.

00:34:58.400 We spot him at Swanky Club as City clears up after clashes.

00:35:03.980 yeah he went to some it's actually uh like an exclusive gentleman's club wasn't it but

00:35:09.100 so what so what what's that got to do with anything what's that got to do with anything

00:35:14.500 that after pmqs he went for like lunch probably lunch i would have thought maybe a couple of

00:35:22.980 drinks a swanky club

00:35:29.520 it's just a members only

00:35:33.920 this shows exactly who he is

00:35:38.660 so so weird

00:35:42.740 the mirror can you imagine the sort of derangement in the mind of the senior editors at the mirror

00:35:48.880 can you imagine it's difficult to imagine to me exactly what their thought process is

00:35:55.740 and their motivations right they've decided haven't they i suspect i imagine it's the actual

00:36:02.120 owners or the most senior editor or small team of editors in the mirror they've decided 0.58

00:36:09.100 that nigel is evil he's the enemy it's their job they've decided it's their job that they don't

00:36:16.740 want him to be prime minister at any at any cost of course that's not based they're not doing it 1.00

00:36:23.380 from the right right they're doing it from the left okay we'll restore people and them should

00:36:31.980 be bedfellows but i just find it i can't bring myself to sort of work hand in glove with people 0.56

00:36:36.820 that want to destroy reformer nigel from the left um they've decided he's evil and wrong

00:36:43.020 and needs to be destroyed so they'll find anything anything even the fact that he went and got lunch 0.92

00:36:48.460 after PMQs

00:36:51.600 that he dared mention

00:36:55.220 the sort of injustice

00:36:56.840 of the Novak killing

00:36:58.100 and the police response to it.

00:37:01.480 This shows who he is.

00:37:02.940 I mean, it's honestly

00:37:04.100 mad.

00:37:07.140 All right, the Metro.

00:37:13.580 The Metro. 1.00

00:37:15.380 Reforms Zia in two-tier health storm. 0.98

00:37:17.760 Never decided to have a pop at Zia Yusuf here

00:37:19.640 Again, of course, not my guy

00:37:22.180 I very much don't want him to be my Home Secretary

00:37:26.200 Ultimately, I don't trust him

00:37:29.420 To save my country from a demographic collapse

00:37:36.960 Don't trust him at all 1.00

00:37:40.400 However, he does still, even if it's red meat

00:37:43.000 Does still say some base things from time to time

00:37:45.420 I give people credit when they do that

00:37:47.460 even if it is performative 1.00

00:37:48.500 and red meat

00:37:49.040 because it will move 0.99

00:37:50.040 the Overton window

00:37:50.620 a little bit

00:37:51.180 from time to time

00:37:51.900 to give Zia Yusuf

00:37:53.900 a man I don't like

00:37:55.540 and don't trust

00:37:56.000 to give him some credit

00:37:56.880 where it's due

00:37:57.340 he does do that

00:37:57.960 doesn't he

00:37:58.260 yeah okay

00:37:58.840 I've said before

00:37:59.860 if Ed Davey

00:38:01.380 or Ash Sarkar

00:38:04.200 or Owen Jones

00:38:05.080 came out

00:38:05.520 and started saying

00:38:06.020 base things

00:38:06.640 even if I didn't

00:38:08.340 believe them

00:38:09.020 I'd still say

00:38:10.320 look at that

00:38:10.940 fair enough

00:38:11.680 some credit

00:38:12.260 at least for doing that

00:38:13.200 okay

00:38:13.420 the Metro

00:38:15.600 ultra lefty

00:38:17.140 Ultra left

00:38:18.120 The Metroid

00:38:20.340 The Guardian

00:38:20.860 They should have

00:38:38.120 Slur 1.00

00:38:38.620 Like you pillock 1.00

00:38:40.000 You idiot 1.00

00:38:41.220 Something like that 1.00

00:38:42.380 Something on that level 1.00

00:38:43.060 A wazzak 1.00

00:38:43.600 That's all that means 1.00

00:38:44.300 If you didn't know

00:39:06.160 men racist even though they're two black men are twice as likely to get cancer prostate cancer 0.89

00:39:12.000 So it's in the news a little bit 0.99

00:39:14.380 That 0.88

00:39:15.340 Black men 0.98

00:39:18.480 Were going to like be put to the top of the list 1.00

00:39:21.680 Or whatever

00:39:22.080 For prostate cancer checks

00:39:24.900 And a lot of people said

00:39:26.980 Well that's completely unfair

00:39:28.980 That's sort of

00:39:29.640 How is that possibly fair

00:39:31.140 And other people say

00:39:31.700 Well no black men are statistically

00:39:33.800 More likely to get it 0.99

00:39:35.460 I mean make of that what you will

00:39:40.500 of course i would side with the the angle that can't everyone be treated relatively equally

00:39:47.540 but all right see you should have said something about it and 0.94

00:39:53.700 anti-white out group loving self-loathing traitors come out and just have a pop at him 0.61

00:39:59.060 call him a wazzik okay not much for story all right the eye paper banned from russia exposing 0.82

00:40:06.980 Putin's crimes is slightly different story from the eye papers today they go with stuff all about

00:40:11.480 all about Russia they got banned their journalists got banned from Russia and they're obviously a bit

00:40:15.920 butthurt about it I'll just quickly read the blurb none of the other papers go with this by the way

00:40:21.100 perhaps a slight L one of a rare L for the eye paper to not be representative of that of that

00:40:28.660 morning's news cycle they just go with something else about Russia they say the eye papers

00:40:34.100 correspondent among five british nationals barred from entering russia kremlin frustration frustration

00:40:40.660 with western media is growing over coverage of ukraine war the eye papers reporters have revealed

00:40:48.740 russian espionage and sabotage inside the uk and existence of internment camps a massive abduction

00:40:57.620 of Ukrainian children

00:41:00.980 Kremlin vows to blacklist

00:41:04.760 more British journalists

00:41:06.140 over spread

00:41:08.780 of insinuations

00:41:11.900 I've got to get that

00:41:12.560 I've got to get that monocle

00:41:13.600 that's right on the limit

00:41:18.300 of me being able to read

00:41:19.040 ok read it though

00:41:19.740 alright

00:41:20.000 so yeah

00:41:22.760 the iPaper had its journalists

00:41:24.680 banned from Russia

00:41:25.280 and they're a bit angry about it

00:41:27.620 The financial time is going to be something a bit different.

00:41:31.640 Have you noticed recently in the last week or so,

00:41:34.920 a lot of the corporate legacy mainstream media

00:41:36.560 are trying to peddle the narrative that the war in the Donbass

00:41:43.100 is turning in Ukraine's favour.

00:41:51.660 Okay, Vanguard ETF hits 1 trillion exchange trading funds.

00:43:01.240 in 1966, that fourth goal, he won the game 4-2. That fourth goal, the one where fans

00:43:06.540 are on the pitch and they think it's all over, then a dude scores a goal, and it is

00:43:10.160 now. That was Jeff Hurst scoring that goal, I believe. Is that wrong? I hope that's not

00:44:29.100 they are all right we did a poll didn't we this is about the time the show we do our poll

00:44:33.140 let's have a look at our poll oh this morning me and little Harry decided we'd do a palette

00:44:39.700 cleanser one we could ask you about novak would you accept an apology from the police chief if

00:44:47.220 if your son had been left to bled out in handcuffs something like that but we thought we thought we

00:44:53.780 just we decided we just wanted to do a pellet uh palette cleanser of a one i'll see something

00:44:58.900 completely different so we did what did we ask uh what is your favorite indiana jones movie there

00:45:05.140 There you go. Out of left field.

00:45:06.560 To something else. Something completely different.

00:45:09.560 Alright.

00:45:11.820 Oh.

00:45:14.120 One of the rare times.

00:45:15.080 I think maybe it's the second time ever.

00:45:17.380 Well, I don't agree.

00:45:18.620 The Glorious Band, The Chosen For You, My Band of Brothers.

00:45:21.240 Don't agree with my take.

00:45:23.160 What is your favourite Indiana Jones film?

00:45:24.740 We gave you the option of the first three films.

00:45:26.500 They're the only real Indiana Jones films, aren't they?

00:45:29.160 We're not even going to talk about that.

00:45:30.360 Skull one. The other ones.

00:45:32.780 The first three.

00:45:33.440 Raiders of the Lost Ark

00:45:34.600 Temple of Doom

00:45:35.200 and The Last Crusade

00:45:35.980 Raiders of the Lost Ark

00:45:37.780 has won it

00:45:38.860 relatively handily

00:45:40.380 as well

00:45:40.760 on 58%

00:45:41.640 Temple of Doom

00:45:42.720 on 15%

00:45:43.680 it's probably

00:45:44.280 the weakest one

00:45:44.920 isn't it

00:45:45.220 probably

00:45:45.540 and The Last Crusade

00:45:48.720 on 27%

00:45:49.740 my favourite

00:45:50.460 is The Last Crusade

00:45:51.400 might be quite a long way

00:45:54.920 but maybe

00:45:57.240 it was just

00:45:57.740 at the right time

00:45:58.680 in my life

00:45:59.040 when I was a kid

00:45:59.620 when that came out

00:46:00.280 and I was taken to the cinema

00:46:01.200 and I've got great

00:46:01.940 childhood memories

00:46:02.840 when I was like

00:46:03.280 i don't know eight or ten or twelve i can't remember how old i was but i was a kid i was

00:46:07.240 taken to the cinema up london as a special treat giant screen three four times bigger than the

00:46:12.660 normal screen in romford got bought popcorn the whole nine yards the last crusade oh enthralled

00:46:21.680 by it every moment of it oh so last crusade is my favorite but you guys say raiders of the lost

00:46:29.460 stark well fair enough fair enough someone in the church has said hollywood slop you have it

00:46:35.320 you watch it in hindsight don't you steven spielberg grinding his axe in various ways

00:46:41.920 isn't he yeah all right let's move on sometimes we look at the price of oil don't we at this

00:46:49.780 point in the show here we go what have we got today all right so both are still under a hundred

00:46:55.980 dollars west texas at 95 is that 95 and brent at 97 so

00:47:03.820 you you would have thought you honestly i honestly would have thought that

00:47:09.180 this war in persia would have made it go to sort of all-time highs or something the straits of

00:47:15.460 hormuz closed for weeks and weeks a month closed and the price of oil hovers in and around roughly

00:47:22.880 very very roughly a hundred dollars maybe the average between when this war started in february

00:47:28.260 and now the average of all those prices what would that be a hundred dollars 105 110 maybe at most

00:47:33.360 the average of that whole period of time something like that so in other words higher but nowhere

00:47:38.920 near all time hires spiked a bit and then remarkable really all right should we just move on to

00:47:48.340 we'll just move on to on this day in history shall we because i can't it's already 10 to

00:47:55.760 and i can't go on for an hour and a half really today so if we do understand history you guys

00:48:01.780 like that bit i like that bit on this day on the 4th of june down through the centuries

00:48:06.680 what happened if no okay in 1760 the great upheaval new england park planters arrive in

00:48:13.400 Nova Scotia Canada to claim land taken from the Acadians so that's all part of the seven years

00:48:19.900 war isn't it that that's yeah where the British Empire fought the French in Canada well around

00:48:28.840 the whole world seven years war was a type of civil a type of world war some historians have

00:48:34.740 described it as you know an early proto world war was fighting the French everywhere from Canada to

00:48:40.600 india we were fighting them yeah and that's after that after we take montreal and quebec 0.88

00:48:45.720 kick the french out basically yeah the acadians of french weren't they 0.79

00:48:51.560 the british kicked them out we'll get a load of people from new england 0.98

00:48:55.740 from what became the united states english people effectively we'll bring them up from

00:49:02.240 new england and put them in nova scotia to sort of displace the french

00:49:06.420 the great upheaval okay the miracle of dunkirk in 1940 the british on this day complete

00:49:14.760 the miracle of dunkirk by evacuating 338 226 allied troops from france via a flotilla

00:49:22.100 of over 800 vessels including royal navy destroyers merchant marine boats fishing

00:49:26.600 boats pleasure craft and even lifeboats it was a bit of a miracle really 1.00

00:49:31.360 Well, it was a miracle that Mr. Hitler and his panzer commanders 1.00

00:49:39.620 Or infantry commanders 0.98

00:49:41.340 Chose not to turn the beaches of Dunkirk into a charnel house

00:49:46.520 That's really what it was

00:49:48.100 They gave us a window of time to evacuate

00:49:50.520 They'd been utterly, utterly, utterly ruthless

00:49:55.280 the photographs of the beaches of dunkirk in early june 1940 would be very different

00:50:03.340 to the ones we've got they're all queuing up in the sea to get on a boat

00:50:09.120 okay on this day 1989 eastern europe's first uh partially free elections in 40 years are held in

00:50:17.240 poland solidarity party comes to power yeah wasn't it poland when the soviet project began

00:50:24.140 to truly collapse in 1989 wasn't it poland that were first to break away i think like gorbachev

00:50:31.820 and like glasnost and perestroika gorbachev was like we'll let the people in certain parts of our

00:50:39.440 orbit our sphere we'll let them have a vote whether they want to stay in the soviet union or

00:50:46.360 not and so i think this if i if memory serves like as soon as he allowed that the polls

00:50:53.660 immediately just said right we're doing that yes we vote and we live in immediately

00:50:58.740 right it talks about on this website i've talked a bit about tiananmen square over the last few

00:51:05.840 days on this day in 1989 tiananmen square massacre chinese troops clear the square of student

00:51:11.700 protesters unofficial figures place death toll at near a thousand i think it's way more than that

00:51:17.540 isn't it i think it's way more than that but at least a thousand

00:51:24.180 now channel one square is a giant space giant space but nonetheless even if it was as low as 1000

00:51:31.460 that's that's quite a that would be quite a disturbing harrowing scene of horror still

00:51:41.600 wouldn't it okay and on this day in 2023 Ukrainian counter-offensive begins with

00:51:50.880 increased fighting in the east and south of the country yeah that was the one I think it was either

00:51:56.660 2022 but i think it was the one in 2023 the ukrainian summer counter-offensive i think

00:52:02.180 that was the one where i watched that watch it play out over that summer to see if the ukrainian

00:52:10.780 quote unquote counter-offensive would really do anything whether it really would be you know sort

00:52:18.260 of effective on the battlefield whether the russian army would indeed be pushed back in

00:52:23.660 any significant way any sort of permanent and or significant way and it wasn't when it became

00:52:30.600 clear later in the summer that it wasn't going to do that that was when i sort of thought

00:52:36.920 it's over strategically strategically it's over for ukraine that was your moment really i would

00:52:46.120 have thought might be wrong this world might just peter on for like 10 years and at the end of it

00:52:52.320 the Russians pull out like at the end of Afghanistan or something that might happen 0.92

00:52:56.660 that could happen at this point in history early June 2026 I feel like that was Ukraine's big

00:53:07.180 opportunity to change the course of that war and they didn't well anyway not that I'm pro-Russian

00:53:16.860 It's just battlefield reality

00:53:18.840 It is terribly sad and unfortunate

00:53:20.880 That completely innocent Ukrainian people get killed 1.00

00:53:23.940 And Russian 1.00

00:53:24.840 Sad 0.82

00:53:28.540 Alright

00:53:31.180 Shall we have a look at our Rumble Rants and Superchats

00:53:33.500 Let me do this with my mic boom

00:53:35.940 So I can see the left hand side of my screen

00:53:37.420 Where the Rumble Rants always have shown

00:53:38.880 What have we got

00:53:41.360 Is Global Church History going to be in at number one

00:53:43.360 Let me scroll down

00:53:44.080 Yes, today's a good day 1.00

00:53:45.320 Table Church in history

00:53:48.380 In at number one

00:53:49.460 Reigning, defending

00:53:50.820 And still

00:53:53.460 Alright he gives us a couple of factoids

00:53:56.680 What's the first one he says

00:53:57.980 Today in 1411 AD

00:54:00.580 Charles VI of France

00:54:02.220 Granted Roquefort

00:54:04.380 Sir Souzon

00:54:06.380 A monopoly on

00:54:08.260 Roquefort cheese

00:54:09.380 Well there you go I did not know that

00:54:12.740 Learn something new every day

00:54:14.760 i'm not gonna spend any more time talking about the history of rock full cheese

00:54:19.240 uh and in 1647 i'll call it george joyce took king charles the martyr prisoner

00:54:26.600 calling king charles the martyr charles stewart charles first um that i do know about that is

00:54:34.180 worth talking about for a moment on epochs i'm going to do it will be a few months yet but

00:54:39.680 probably towards the end of this year maybe in autumn this year i'm going to get up to just

00:54:42.860 naturally get up to the civil war times i'm still on henry the eighth at the moment got a little

00:54:48.420 ways to go but probably in autumn time i would have thought um yes a great moment in time

00:54:54.420 when cornet joyce arrests the king a great moment in time i say great i mean

00:55:02.500 not that i'm 100 1000 love the fact that the king had to be arrested or anything just

00:55:11.340 just as a moment in time

00:55:13.100 just as sort of a scene from history

00:55:14.860 it's a great one

00:55:17.000 if you don't know

00:55:18.260 real quick to say

00:55:19.560 the first civil war

00:55:22.240 had already happened and finished

00:55:25.360 because they talk about a first and a second civil war

00:55:27.720 the second civil war was much more

00:55:29.360 an aborted thing

00:55:30.380 anyway

00:55:30.820 the first civil war was over

00:55:32.900 and King Charles, Charles Stuart

00:55:35.600 Charles the Master

00:55:36.500 was in the hands of Parliament

00:55:39.740 he was being held under arrest at a big country house by parliament and in that period parliament

00:55:46.700 and the army who were vying for who has real power who really controls policy who's really

00:55:54.360 holding all the cards is it those mps in parliament or is it the army and parliament

00:56:02.320 wasn't paying the army and the army didn't like that and the army were more radical in all sorts

00:56:09.120 ways much more radical in various ways and so cornet joyce cornet just means it's a rank

00:56:18.000 it's quite a low relatively low rank the equivalent of what like a lieutenant or something lieutenant

00:56:24.000 something like that

00:56:27.680 and cornet joyce was almost certainly probably ordered by oliver cromwell himself

00:56:31.840 to take 500 men go to where the king is being held under guard parliamentary guard by only like a few

00:56:40.640 dozen or i can't remember how many exactly but if you take 500 men you you that's way more than you

00:56:47.220 need even go there and get him and take him back to our military hq where like sir thomas fairfax

00:56:56.220 is so in other words the king isn't in the hands of parliament he's in the hands of the army

00:57:01.400 because that would give us the army loads more leverage and everything more power

00:57:08.120 so Cornet Joyce was sent to go and do that and he did there's a great moment so apparently he

00:57:14.940 came into the king's bedchamber in the middle of the night saying you're under arrest by order of

00:57:18.480 the army you now belong to us your person is under our control basically and in the morning

00:57:22.880 first thing in the morning we're taking you away the king's like okay I'm a prisoner you know do

00:57:28.880 you go do what you're going to do i can't do anything right and then in the morning he's

00:57:33.520 supposed to have asked like where's your commission where's your actual orders where's the the the

00:57:38.480 legal reasoning for taking me under by what power do you arrest me and corny just didn't have any

00:57:46.320 sort of commission or legal writ or any warrant or anything so when he's asked by what authority

00:57:52.960 do you arrest the king he just turned around and pointed to his 500 men and he's like by that

00:57:57.280 authority how about that how'd you like me now he didn't say those words yeah what's up now how'd

00:58:03.280 you like me now cornet joyce didn't say that he just he just pointed at his 500 men the king said

00:58:10.320 ah i see you are a power i see you are a power okay arrest me fine i'm not gonna try and run away

00:58:20.240 i'm not gonna try and fight you all

00:58:22.320 great great little moment in history anyway corny joyce arresting the king all right

00:58:29.620 where's we got jeffrey farnell says have you seen that the new piece of artwork for the fourth

00:58:38.080 plinth in trafalgar square will be a giant black woman oh i haven't seen that but of course it is

00:58:43.800 why not of course it is because they've already done that they've already done that a number of 0.77

00:58:46.560 times. Didn't they have a black paraplegic woman statue on the fourth plinth once? Like

00:58:54.480 one of those thalidomide babies where they've all four limbs are terribly deformed. A black 1.00

00:59:02.300 woman with that. A giant statue of her on the fourth plinth. Yeah, why not do it again?

00:59:06.620 Yeah. Throw up a big black woman. What, mid twerk or something? Mid throwing a punch in 1.00

00:59:16.060 a Waffle House. Why not? You go and say, it's always been a demoralisation tactic to put

00:59:24.580 grotesque things in our citadel of heroes. Yeah. Because anyone knows a name, perhaps

00:59:29.080 you're American or whatever. In Trafalgar Square, there's Nelson's Column, and at the

00:59:33.220 top of Nelson's Column is a statue of Admiral Lord Nelson, one of our greatest, arguably

00:59:37.640 perhaps probably our greatest hero of all time. The victor of Cape St. Vincent.

00:59:46.060 the victor of copenhagen the victor of the nile the victor of trafalgar probably our greatest

00:59:54.680 hero and then in the corners of trafalgar square there's four plinths and on each one we've got

00:59:59.500 different national heroes what is there we've got sir henry have a look sir charles napier

01:00:05.140 what's the other one i think one of them's it's one from king george the fourth isn't it i can't

01:00:09.280 remember i should know that all this off the top of my head it's definitely have a look napier and

01:00:12.560 I think, I think the Prince Regent, anyway.

01:00:15.340 And there's a fourth one, which they put various things on over time.

01:00:20.880 Something, something else over time.

01:00:22.940 Fair enough, isn't it?

01:00:23.800 Every few months, or is it?

01:00:25.140 Every six months or once a year or something, they put something new on there.

01:00:28.920 Perhaps something even avant-garde.

01:00:31.760 Well, it's the fashion now, isn't it, to put something subversive and or gross,

01:00:36.140 physically unattractive or something.

01:00:39.220 Yeah.

01:00:40.720 Yeah.

01:00:42.560 horrible isn't it yeah a demoralization tactic yeah

01:00:51.760 tomrett247 says i'm sorry i don't think you are mate yeah yeah i said that didn't i

01:00:58.320 i think i said almost exactly that where the police say sorry sorry we let your son bleed 0.55

01:01:03.280 out and handcuffed him on the strength of a liar i don't think you are mate yeah quite right

01:01:11.200 dragon lady chris says can you all sue the authorities for wrongdoing in the uk if henry

01:01:19.200 novak happens to be in the us you can bet his family would be getting a huge payout

01:01:23.960 i mean i think they could they might be able to i don't know exactly

01:01:31.480 it depends what the independent police complaints commission people

01:01:38.160 say I think I saw I think I heard that they're gonna decide or have decided that the police

01:01:45.840 officers didn't do anything wrong I'm not sure about that I think they're still investigating

01:01:50.720 it all but maybe there were some leaks maybe I saw some leaks so take that with a pinch of salt

01:01:56.120 anyway anyway it would depend what the investigations show perhaps if those

01:02:03.920 investigations show that the police had definitely 100% even by their own standards and admission

01:02:09.020 acted wrongly badly even criminally then maybe the family Henry Novak's family could

01:02:18.680 sue them in a civil case I don't know all right Fallen Firebird says I absolutely despise

01:02:25.960 the proletarianization of the monarchy right Royals shouldn't be screaming at sports ball games

01:02:32.620 or slumming at pubs they should be a higher example and guardian to their people i mean

01:02:39.520 yeah i'd probably rather it's that way yeah don't try and pretend you're normal you're not normal

01:02:43.740 you're extremely rich and insanely privileged and not just privileged it's beyond privilege isn't it

01:02:51.400 it's it's yeah yeah i mean i agree with you it used to be the case i mean i say used to i mean

01:02:59.280 going back to the early 20th century or the 19th century yeah the royals were very very deliberately

01:03:04.520 set completely apart very very rarely saw them wouldn't very even when at the advent of radio

01:03:11.840 would rarely make radio addresses stuff like that i think like the king's first ever radio address

01:03:18.860 was in the 1920s radio had been around for a while already and people were like oh wow that's

01:03:23.480 the voice of the king he sounds like a normal he sounds like a human being he sounds like a normal

01:03:26.960 man basically wow yeah before that they were like this thing set apart okay yeah i mean

01:03:35.120 the prince of wales willing saps coberg and gotha he's just a villa fan who likes drinking pints

01:03:43.940 is he is he yeah i agree with you i think fallen firebird all right chris r1288 is that what that

01:03:54.820 Is that your name?

01:03:55.940 You say, yeah, but that kid is not authorised to choke you to death.

01:04:01.440 I agree, the brick is weak.

01:04:03.680 Do you like crackling?

01:04:11.240 Crackling, is that something to do with pigs?

01:04:16.120 Remember in Wayne's World, I smell bacon.

01:04:20.060 Yeah, I don't get exactly what you're saying there.

01:04:23.040 yeah but that kid what kid is not authorized to choke you to death

01:04:27.000 i agree the brick is weak do you like crackling i'm sorry chris r128 i don't get exactly what

01:04:37.220 you're getting at all right 14 and barber morning mate all right i'm all right are you all right i

01:04:42.120 hope you are great news about bem habib uh shutting advance down oh yeah that happened

01:04:48.460 didn't it, even better than

01:04:50.220 Lawrence Fox and

01:04:51.660 Calvin Robinson

01:04:54.260 have joined Restore

01:04:55.900 it's nice to find

01:04:58.420 something good in a sea of

01:05:00.540 awfulness recently

01:05:01.680 yeah, Ben Habib, I did see that yesterday

01:05:04.220 in fact on State of Politics

01:05:05.620 we've got a video about that, it will come out today or perhaps tomorrow

01:05:08.520 talk about Ben Habib

01:05:09.860 effectively folding

01:05:12.480 not completely disbanding and utterly

01:05:14.520 utterly ending Advance

01:05:16.540 UK, but

01:05:18.220 just short of doing that

01:05:20.060 basically

01:05:20.600 basically stopping the operation

01:05:22.580 not ending it entirely

01:05:23.960 not like formally taking it off

01:05:25.340 of the electoral register

01:05:26.420 but

01:05:27.160 just stop campaigning

01:05:28.700 and got no intention of putting

01:05:29.980 any candidates forward

01:05:30.840 anywhere

01:05:31.400 indefinitely

01:05:33.100 for

01:05:34.160 Advance UK

01:05:35.260 or certainly for the time being

01:05:37.000 perhaps not indefinitely

01:05:37.760 but for now

01:05:38.640 99% sort of folding it up

01:05:41.940 well yeah

01:05:44.000 he didn't have much other choice

01:05:46.720 did he

01:05:48.220 that shellacking they got

01:05:52.320 at Galton and Denton was brutal

01:05:54.760 poor old Nick Buckley

01:05:56.680 we've had Nick Buckley on Lotus Eaters a number of times

01:05:59.160 I've met him a number of times

01:06:00.620 chatted to him a little bit

01:06:01.640 he's a well alright dude

01:06:03.460 he's a nice guy

01:06:04.960 I agree with a lot of his takes

01:06:06.800 not every single one

01:06:07.500 but a lot of his takes

01:06:08.780 poor dude

01:06:11.100 I can't remember how many votes he got

01:06:13.700 was it like 60

01:06:14.980 was it 57 or 67

01:06:17.220 He got less than like an actual comedy protest vote

01:06:22.700 Didn't he?

01:06:24.540 Didn't the raving monster loony party get more votes than him? 0.98

01:06:30.780 So 0.98

01:06:31.340 Without being needlessly cruel

01:06:33.460 And mean

01:06:35.160 To Advance UK

01:06:36.780 That's brutal

01:06:38.240 Yeah

01:06:39.880 People didn't like it at least in Goulton and Denton

01:06:41.960 They're not interested in Advance UK and Ben Habib

01:06:45.620 it couldn't have been more brutal really like 57 or 67 whatever however many votes it was it was

01:06:53.560 under 100 that's all that's basically just like the friends and family voted for it no one else

01:07:00.600 no one that's so brutal that for my mind of a result for advance that it's just just end it

01:07:09.620 just give it up it's not it's not happening all right it's not it's not happening people don't

01:07:16.200 want ben habib as their leader on a national level i'm talking about because advance uk did get a

01:07:23.760 lot of members tens of thousands of members didn't they so the strength of that you might think oh

01:07:28.160 right we've got something here this is the thing we've got the ball rolling okay let's see let's

01:07:31.340 see how it performs it performed terribly it's just the reality it's just the reality

01:07:38.400 it's probably for the best

01:07:40.620 did Ben Habib really realistically have any other choice

01:07:43.840 he could just pretend it's still good

01:07:45.120 and it's still a thing

01:07:45.800 and he could be Prime Minister one day

01:07:47.200 ok so Chris has just whacked in another quick super chat

01:07:55.220 to explain himself

01:07:55.920 he says

01:07:56.160 in reference to your IT example

01:10:35.420 Feels like one of those stories

01:10:40.240 Where the villains

01:10:42.060 Heard a prophecy about someone who's going to defeat him

01:10:45.060 So he decides to try and wipe out the group

01:10:47.580 Only to cause the person to seek revenge

01:10:49.380 Yeah, right, yeah, exactly, yeah

01:10:50.400 Self-fulfilling prophecy

01:10:52.020 The thing they're trying to prevent the most

01:10:55.480 They end up creating, yeah

01:10:56.780 Yeah

01:10:57.940 There you go, again, down through history

01:11:01.900 when you look at actual full-blown communist revolutions and revolts.

01:11:06.240 That's what they want.

01:11:06.860 They just keep poking centrists, liberals, and, of course, the right, 0.91

01:11:12.220 just keep poking them in the eye until they go mad and explode in a reaction.

01:11:17.440 And then they can say, oh, right, now it's our turn to fight back.

01:11:22.540 Classic, isn't it?

01:11:23.480 Just like any sort of fight in the playground or outside a bar,

01:11:27.040 you just goad the other person until they throw a punch, and then it's on.

01:11:31.900 you just spit at them. 0.55

01:11:35.800 You just spit on their shoes.

01:11:38.080 Something.

01:11:42.460 It's pretty straightforward, isn't it?

01:11:44.140 All right.

01:11:45.840 Anthony Paul Willis says,

01:11:47.860 I was leafleting for the 2017 general election in Southampton.

01:11:55.020 I and a friend got beaten up for posting propaganda.

01:11:59.240 Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.

01:12:00.100 Police refuse to do anything

01:12:02.340 Despite that we could narrow the attacker's address

01:12:05.540 To three properties

01:12:06.800 That's horrible to hear, what an injustice

01:12:10.640 Classically the police

01:12:12.240 The police for years now

01:12:14.560 Have behaved like that, been like that

01:12:16.500 Now very very very often

01:12:18.480 Even if it's assault

01:12:19.380 Or just go

01:12:20.840 There's loads of stories where people

01:12:23.760 Have got the evidence

01:12:25.200 The slam dunk evidence

01:12:27.520 Of someone that robbed them

01:12:29.180 or assaulted them

01:12:30.420 or something

01:12:30.980 they're like

01:12:31.580 oh I've got my door cam

01:12:32.720 actual door cam

01:12:33.880 showing it

01:12:34.380 or dash cam

01:12:35.680 or something

01:12:36.060 or I filmed it

01:12:37.360 on my phone

01:12:37.860 and the police are like

01:12:38.980 can you investigate it

01:12:43.060 and take it to the CPS

01:12:44.360 and they're like

01:12:44.780 no

01:12:45.400 we can't

01:12:46.860 this is a society

01:12:52.320 breaking down

01:12:53.100 when the police

01:12:53.660 behave like that

01:12:54.460 on a regular basis

01:12:57.440 as for any sort of

01:12:58.780 normal crime most normal crimes like burglaries or your car stolen or your phone stolen nothing

01:13:03.120 absolutely nothing you tell the police and they're like okay great thanks for letting us know

01:13:07.280 we've put it in some sort of database somewhere here's a reference number that we've logged it

01:13:11.440 under if you want the reference number that's it and that's it then that's case closed end of story

01:13:16.900 nothing nothing else imagine that your home gets burgled and that's what you get

01:13:21.900 so well what's the point in this reference number what

01:13:25.520 I'm just supposed to walk away now

01:13:28.500 With this reference number

01:13:29.380 And that's the end of it

01:13:30.100 So I can ring you up

01:13:32.260 In a few days or weeks or months

01:13:34.580 And give you this reference number

01:13:35.700 And you can tell me

01:13:36.460 About the investigation

01:13:37.880 What's going on

01:13:38.520 No, no, there isn't going to be

01:13:39.620 Any investigation

01:13:40.280 So what's the point of

01:13:43.300 This reference

01:13:44.200 This crime number you've given me

01:13:46.400 What's the point of that

01:13:47.260 There isn't one

01:13:47.800 Right, that's policing in Britain now

01:13:50.660 Right

01:13:51.200 Sorry to hear that

01:13:55.860 Anthony Paul Willis

01:13:57.120 Yeah

01:13:58.180 I can imagine the police going

01:14:00.120 I'm afraid we haven't got the resources

01:14:02.640 To knock on those three doors

01:14:04.260 And ask a couple of questions

01:14:06.280 Sorry, end of story, bye bye now

01:14:08.720 Off you go

01:14:09.340 Horrible isn't it

01:14:12.820 What an injustice

01:14:13.680 An endless number of injustices

01:14:16.480 We've been subjected to over the last few years

01:14:19.300 Endless

01:14:20.180 Mr. Dickie Bingo says

01:14:25.360 The blob thinks we're extreme

01:14:27.600 What's coming is

01:14:29.440 Can't comment on that all that much 0.99

01:14:33.020 Because of T's and C's

01:14:34.380 And the actual police

01:14:36.260 But yeah, the sentiment there

01:14:38.920 Is a sound one, isn't it?

01:14:41.380 Whether you like it or not

01:14:42.540 Mr. Dickie Bingo's sentiment there

01:14:47.900 Remember even just the other day

01:14:49.080 earlier this week or at the end of last week jacob reese mogg said restore and rupert lowe

01:14:52.940 were too extreme too extreme to think of making any sort of deal or compact with them not that

01:14:59.880 i would want one with jacob reese mogg but yeah restore basically kind of centrist positions as

01:15:08.740 far as i'm concerned reasonable reasonable normal ever so right of center slightly but basically

01:15:17.920 centrist positions as far as i'm concerned that's too extreme wanting to put britain's first in britain

01:15:27.600 too extreme

01:15:35.120 okay all right

01:15:40.160 there's only so long that pressure cooker can hold

01:15:42.400 Minichist UK says

01:15:50.400 For 166 years

01:15:53.300 There was zero female senior police staff

01:15:57.200 In 25 years we've gone from zero to one third

01:16:00.740 The resulting change is predictable and organic

01:16:03.900 Basically too much empathy for criminals

01:16:09.420 Is that what you're getting at?

01:16:12.400 Cops on the beat that just get their nose broken.

01:16:16.560 They can't.

01:16:18.520 Well, you're talking about senior police officers there, not beat officers.

01:16:21.140 All right.

01:16:23.040 Yeah.

01:16:25.400 It's a concern, isn't it?

01:16:28.400 Radio Friendly says,

01:16:31.240 Best from across the pond.

01:17:11.680 He says, twice as likely to get prostate cancer, question mark.

01:17:18.220 Sure sounds like a per capita argument to me.

01:17:22.560 Yeah, oh, in this case, they understand what per capita means.

01:17:25.840 Right, yeah.

01:17:28.160 Oh, now you get it.

01:18:04.860 taken of him in the palace of westminster somewhere taking the knee within two weeks of

01:18:10.120 george floyd's death or within 14 days 15 days 16 days something like that it's been like over 170

01:18:16.500 days since the novak killing just puts it in perspective doesn't it george floyd's death

01:18:24.620 which was caused by a fentanyl overdose oh that's what that's what was said at the trial

01:18:30.060 Oh yeah, Derek Chauvin's trial

01:18:32.820 The doctor said

01:18:34.940 No, his heart stopped because of fentanyl

01:18:37.180 A giant fentanyl overdose

01:18:39.600 So his death

01:18:42.460 Caused by a self-inflicted overdose

01:18:45.920 His death was way, way more important

01:18:50.280 To Keir Starmer

01:18:51.180 Than Henry Novak's murder

01:18:53.580 Varulg says 0.96
