00:02:23.140
no right okay the eye paper faraj forces elections u-turn triggering next threat to starmer's leadership
00:02:31.640
so yeah let me quickly read all the blurb and then we'll go into it in a bit of detail so it says
00:02:35.360
uh labor abandons plans to postpone may local elections after legal challenge from reform
00:02:41.300
faraj hails reversal of plan as a victory for reform and democracy in this country
00:02:47.340
but refuses to apologize for tax pay cost as government agrees to pay reform legal bill
00:02:52.360
about a hundred grand as well not peanuts anyway labor expected to lose control of six councils in may
00:03:01.680
uh piling further pressure on starmer local authorities are quote experiencing whiplash
00:03:08.300
quote from challenging government decisions making it quote almost impossible end quote to plan
00:03:14.360
effectively for residents council leaders say cabinet reshuffle likely coming in months as starmer
00:03:20.820
battles to save his premiership he might not be here in months all right so that's one of the main
00:03:26.220
stories this morning if you remember if you watch the news if you watch breakfast with beau
00:03:31.000
or um or just the main lotus eaters podcast or if you don't live under a rock in britain you will know
00:03:40.080
there's been a story rolling on for weeks and weeks months and months that labor the government the
00:03:45.860
labor government wanted to oh we're planning to just cancel loads of local elections all the local
00:03:52.100
elections are happening in may what is it the 7th of may and it's a few hundred councils around the
00:03:57.100
country and at first they were saying we're just not going to have these elections this year we're
00:04:02.240
going to do it next year and at first there was talk that it would be loads of them dozens and dozens
00:04:08.700
and dozens maybe a hundred or more anyway it came out that finally their the details of their plan
00:04:14.040
it was going to be 30 councils now even that is loads if it was one council for a very specific
00:04:19.840
decent reason okay if it was two or three for very very good reasons maybe anything beyond that
00:04:27.240
and if the reasons are shaky at all it's like no no no there's something deeply suspicious and wrong
00:04:31.820
going on here anyway it's going to be 30 councils and the reasons that the government the central
00:04:38.920
government as well not even the councils themselves the central government in westminster were saying we're
00:04:44.160
going to do this because there's there's all sorts of boundary changes all sorts of i won't bore you
00:04:50.360
with the details but all sorts of technical reasons why it would be slightly more difficult for them to
00:04:57.320
pardon me um but not good enough reasons everyone that was looking on even lots of councillors themselves
00:05:05.660
are saying no this this that's not a good enough reason um because if you don't hold these
00:05:11.800
elections people can say legitimately they can say they can say without exaggeration you're perverting
00:05:19.300
democracy itself people need to be able to go to the ballot box and have at least that small amount
00:05:26.920
of say over their own country it's already a bit of a lip service to democracy isn't it local elections
00:05:34.320
and parliamentary elections it's not a direct democracy is it like classical athens where every citizen
00:05:39.520
gets to vote on anything of importance already it's only a representative democracy and then
00:05:45.920
those representatives rarely do what you actually wanted them to do what they said they would do
00:05:50.280
so it's already only like a slither of democracy anyway you're going to rub us even of that you're
00:05:55.080
going to take that away from us even so there's an uproar everyone had criticized it obviously bad
00:06:01.020
knock ed davy that uh dave pulled and the greens guy and uh and reform everyone everyone was
00:06:10.520
criticizing it but it was only nige so credit where credit's due it was only nige and reform that
00:06:14.960
actually were going to take it to court or were taking it to court they're going to take the
00:06:19.000
government to court over it and i believe i might be wrong about this but i believe it was going to go
00:06:26.700
to the the supreme court it was certainly going to go to some sort of much much higher court it wasn't
00:06:31.500
just like a local magistrate in westminster it was going to going to go to high court and uh already
00:06:36.320
reform would spend apparently if you believe the accounts uh had already spent something in the
00:06:41.540
order of a hundred thousand pounds on that process
00:06:43.800
and it looked like they would win in court they would defeat the government and the courts would say
00:06:53.340
no government you the government have got to have these elections
00:06:58.780
the reasons you're putting forward not to our ball plot it doesn't make sense it doesn't add up do it
00:07:06.520
you've got to do it so it looks like the government had seen that this was the way it was going to go
00:07:12.320
they were going to lose if it went all the way to court and through a trial and a decision they would
00:07:17.320
lose so they just they they just backed down they capitulated they they did a u-turn another u-turn
00:07:23.920
throw it on the pile of starmer u-turns so they're going to have these elections and in fact they're
00:07:29.260
even going to pay i think out of the public purse which is annoying so you know the taxpayers money pay
00:07:36.380
reform back for the hundred grand they spent on this that bit's a bit annoying but the main point
00:07:43.760
is that they did a u-turn on something that was you know damaging to democracy
00:07:48.980
for what that's worth i mean 30 30 councils is not nothing that's quite a lot it would have been a few
00:07:56.380
million different papers are saying different numbers but something like between four and five
00:08:01.320
million maybe people would have been denied a vote would have been denied that small amount of say
00:08:07.240
they get over their local authority a few million people that's quite a lot isn't it so and the
00:08:12.980
councils out of 30 of them i think i can't remember the exact numbers it was last night i was looking
00:08:18.160
at it and reading about it but something like 20 odd 15 or maybe 20 of those councils were labour run
00:08:23.040
five or ten of them were conservative run and a few a smattering of others that there's no clear
00:08:29.680
party ruling that council so in other words it would have benefited labour most and the tories second
00:08:38.120
most to not have those elections because they're likely to very likely to lose control of the council
00:08:46.280
if not the control of the council pass entirely over to reform i expect reform will do very well at
00:08:55.000
these local elections i expect labour and the tories particularly labour to get smashed absolutely
00:09:03.140
get smashed in them it may smell the end of sakir's leadership entirely his own party may well pull the
00:09:11.580
trigger after that point on getting rid of him because none of them want to take over really and i kind
00:09:17.700
of get it from a cynical point of view it's not even that cynical is it no one wants to take over the
00:09:22.420
leadership of the labour party before that but you're going to take over the the party and then
00:09:28.960
immediately get smashed in local elections doesn't look good does it so you wait for him to take all
00:09:34.000
that muck he can shoulder that embarrassment then you get rid of him makes more sense doesn't it
00:09:42.180
okay let's go it's the main story today by the way it's not exactly wall-to-wall local election u-turn
00:09:48.720
but it nearly is it nearly is on the front pages anyway all right the financial times what have we
00:09:53.440
got holiday spirit china greets lunar new year okay starmer abandons delay of 30 council elections
00:10:02.220
after reform legal challenge labour acts on advice see though they were given legal advice it's like you
00:10:07.300
will lose you can let reform take you to court but at there you will lose so you've got to cut your
00:10:15.780
losses now the only reasonable thing to do the only prudent thing to do would be to cut your losses
00:10:20.900
now back down and do a u-turn all right latest setback for pm yep farage uh tells reed to quit
00:10:29.920
rachel reed i get i imagine it's not gonna be john reed is he still alive even no right no that's rachel
00:10:37.760
reeves who's reed then oh i don't know who cares
00:10:41.000
oh he's the one isn't he the minister in charge of all that stuff he's the minister i believe in
00:10:49.000
would have been in charge of all that yeah like the the it's not like the local authorities minister
00:10:55.460
or something like anyway okay local authorities up for grabs yeah yeah there'll be a load of change of
00:11:01.560
councils right there there'll be a load of change of councils rubio marco rubio secretary of state
00:11:08.340
hails orban's role as essential to us and backs him in the election fight yeah good victor orban's
00:11:14.360
like kind of based isn't he basically or he's not really i don't know if he's based exactly but
00:11:20.460
he's not he's not on board with the entire globalist agenda is he
00:11:35.020
a pack of sickos all right there's robert duval in uh as a much younger man i mean he doesn't look
00:11:46.960
95 there does he 95's not a bad innings is it as i said all right poor old robert duval
00:11:54.700
anger is pm abandons plans to delay may elections okay um
00:12:01.520
did you ever see the godfather harry i know you're very young but did you ever see those films
00:12:08.140
yeah you have yeah they're really good okay cool yeah i really like godfather one and two
00:12:15.940
did you like god have you seen god or godfather one two and three yeah yeah yeah what did you think
00:12:21.720
of godfather part three it was not as strong as the other two
00:12:27.540
that's a very kind thing to say that's the kindest possible spin you could put on it yeah it's crap
00:12:34.820
i think godfather one is among the best films ever i'm not going out on a limb here loads of people
00:12:41.340
say that i really do think it's great i think godfather two is superb possibly better and godfather
00:12:49.080
three is an abortion it's terrible i i i hate it i kind of hate it it ruins the other two in a way
00:12:56.740
sophia coppola is terrible actress it's really really annoying it's annoyingly bad to me
00:13:03.280
like somehow um michael isn't like you don't care about michael i don't like um
00:13:12.900
anyway anyway in the book i love the book as well i've read the book a couple of times mario puso
00:13:20.180
and uh duval's character tom hagan the irishman in the book he's a much much bigger character he's
00:13:27.840
quite a big character in the films isn't he oh actually robert duval didn't even bother turning
00:13:31.580
up for for part three did he he's not even in it he was obviously read the script or something
00:13:38.600
it's like uh no this looks lame this looks lame as hell
00:13:42.780
like how does how does al pacino turn in a bad performance in godfather three how's that possible
00:13:51.700
how did francis full coppola make al pacino crap in that film anyway in the original book tom hagan's
00:14:02.840
a massive character there's this whole backstory about him about how vito corleone picked him up out of
00:14:08.460
nowhere and sort of kind of saved his life and um his his friendship going back to childhood with
00:14:14.180
uh there's just loads all about tom hagan in the book that they don't put in the films
00:14:20.320
and last time i reread it which wasn't that long ago maybe a year ago six months ago
00:14:24.940
um i was daydreaming to myself if there was ever a spin-off film just call it hagan have a whole film
00:14:32.000
about the early life of tom hagan anyway anyway let's move on to the news just a little bit about
00:14:39.880
duval there okay the mail the daily mail absolute slop in denial that it's not slop
00:14:48.560
a full police inquiry into andrew is the only way to restore trust in the monarchy
00:14:57.080
even then a full police inquiry into king charles's connection to jimmy savile
00:15:08.700
in 14th major u-turn humiliated pm pm has to abandon plans to cancel local elections
00:15:23.320
something about posh spice and cruise now they one of their other sons cruise we're not going to even
00:15:30.620
talk about it okay starmer's plan to delay elections abandoned council to vote uh council vote back on
00:15:38.900
as reform forces u-turn right claims that romeo i don't know how you pronounce it i think it's romeo
00:15:45.060
uh was bully were covered up that's the new cabinet secretary i believe a woman already saying that
00:15:52.280
she's a bully uh the thing about bullying in high office or someone that's like a cabinet secretary of
00:15:58.460
something someone that's the ceo of a company if it's real bad bullying like giving people dead arms all the time
00:16:04.880
giving people noogies like physically hurting them and stuff like that sort of bullying okay
00:16:11.700
if it's they're just a super strong character and they shout at people and and and chew them out verbally
00:16:17.800
all the time i don't see a problem with that kind of if it's to an egregious level if it's absolutely insane
00:16:24.660
okay but if it's not that then often you would need someone like that like a bull of a character
00:16:31.840
to be cabinet secretary or to be the ceo of a big company or whatever
00:16:36.780
often you get people get accused of being a bully and it's like are they really a bully or is it just
00:16:44.940
that they're like they're quite strong they know their own mind and they won't take any nonsense from
00:16:48.740
anyone ever and that you would need a character like that to do certain jobs
00:16:53.200
i don't know in this case i really don't know how bad she is but sometimes you hear people are like
00:17:00.960
bullies and like it's like oh all right or other people around them accusing them of being a bully just
00:17:10.500
i've worked for bosses that most people in the world would call a bully
00:17:16.940
just man up just get on with it you just deal with them you just you just deal with it or you
00:17:23.540
meet them head on don't let them bully you i mean
00:17:26.520
all right all right the tory graph stummer u-turners is on cancelled elections all right
00:17:34.780
four million denied right to vote in attack on democracy no wonder this council doesn't want
00:17:39.800
you to vote labor has weaponized law to thwart democracy revolt over cancelled elections right
00:17:45.760
so let's just walk to wall there um here's a story there trump attack attacks milliband over energy
00:17:52.380
deal with loser newsom yeah apparently there's been some sort of deal struck between california just
00:17:57.580
the state of california and the uk over some sort of some sort of deal worth quite a few quite a lot
00:18:04.540
quite a few hundred millions of pounds or dollars seven hundred odd million dollars or pounds um
00:18:13.340
yeah for like renewable energy stuff i think it will create jobs in britain i think that money's
00:18:17.980
largely going from california to the uk and anyway trump says the whole thing's a nonsense and newsom's a loser
00:18:26.380
well we'll see in the next uh presidential election won't we i uh
00:18:37.420
i suspect it will be a newsom ticket might be wrong i suspect the dems will put up old gav next time
00:18:46.460
and he'll probably face what either advance or rubio you would have thought they're the two biggest
00:18:50.460
horses aren't they the two biggest beasts in the republican party right now who knows you could get
00:18:55.500
someone come out of nowhere but rubio and vance seem to be they're likely to don't they at the moment
00:19:05.500
uh imagine that what like let's say vance jd vance versus gavin newsom they go to the american public who
00:19:12.460
do you want i actually never used to really like rubio i never used to really trust or like rubio
00:19:21.260
particularly but since this trump administration i like him a lot more a lot more if he could act
00:19:29.260
like that as president because before this he always seemed a bit i don't know weak is strong
00:19:35.500
he's too strong he wasn't particularly weak but he never seemed to stand out and really you know
00:19:45.340
anyway since he's been under trump he's sort of i think maybe given him uh
00:19:52.540
courage is that the right word given him uh like steeled him like he has i feel like he has
00:20:00.140
stepped up to the plate to become a statesman other than just some other ambitious senator
00:20:07.580
uh you know i i sort of believe him when he says some says big things you know not everyone can do that
00:20:16.300
um i don't feel like he's particularly larping rubio
00:20:22.380
if he was as strong as he is now under trump as president himself you know just completely unapologetic
00:20:29.420
now we're doing this whatever it is that's what you want in a leader whether you like the united
00:20:34.940
states or not he could do that i'd probably rather him than vance personally anyway imagine if it was
00:20:41.900
rubio versus newsom at the next general next presidential election could be well could well could well be what
00:20:50.060
we get anti-semitism is rife in uk says trump's czar oh really just british people are just more
00:20:59.100
anti-semitic than they used to be is it nothing to do with mass importation of muslims no mention of
00:21:04.060
that but there you go all right the metro the metro
00:21:18.940
god damn metro all right uh my happy place with pro green professor green is he still around
00:21:26.060
is he still trying to be a thing professor green get lost professor green
00:21:34.780
uh after metro uncovers ai dark side pm vow to stop the bots classic slot from the metro
00:21:43.020
i was funny i thought that all these progressive people main like loads of lefties or loads of
00:21:47.340
people tech bros most people like ai ai is the new thing ai is the best thing ever now they're saying
00:21:52.620
it is bad there's a dark side to it and there's too many bots
00:21:55.900
to do the online safety we have to curtail everyone's freedom of of expression and freedom
00:22:04.860
of speech freedom of thought because of bots because of ai bots we didn't realize whoever's
00:22:11.580
done the front page as well from the metro i get the feeling that the people that put together the metro
00:22:16.140
are like middle-aged or older or boomers or just idiots don't really know what they do it's all about
00:22:22.060
but ai bots and they've got pictures from uh that fit that film what is it ai or whatever um
00:22:31.100
i robot or whatever and they're not actual robots why have you it's weird it's like you don't
00:22:38.460
understand what you're talking about like profoundly don't understand all right the little line says
00:22:43.420
online safety worries uh online safety worries every parent says starmer as he considers social media ban
00:22:52.780
but plans will be gaffer taping a pothole if big tech won't play ball warns campaigner
00:22:59.660
yeah it's like um there's some terrible tick-tock trend or something that you can
00:23:05.260
you can die in if you're not careful so we've got to ban freedom of of expression for everyone then
00:23:15.580
wheel out a grieving mother can we do that have we got a grieving mother anywhere
00:23:19.260
let's exploit her grief yeah yeah yeah will her out
00:23:29.420
can't have people talking amongst themselves and exchanging ideas freely can't have that
00:23:36.940
let's find ourselves a grieving mother and exploit her pain
00:23:50.780
what have we got here tribute to godfather star deval dies at 95
00:23:54.620
yeah in the book as well mario puse book there's loads about how um veto chooses tom hagan to be his
00:24:07.260
conciliere his sort of right-hand man and that you would because he's irish in it tom hagan he's not
00:24:13.660
a sicilian and that was unheard of and all the other families sort of see that and they call the
00:24:18.140
corleone family like what they call them like the the irishman or something they call them like the
00:24:23.420
irish family or something i can't remember um and that that actually causes loads and loads of problems
00:24:28.700
a big part in the book a big element of why the families end up going to war and stuff is because

00:28:08.460
pm secretly plotting to lock us back into the eu yeah there's loads of details of uh various
00:28:14.060
things starmer's doing he wants to apparently he's making a deal he is making a deal in the process of
00:28:20.540
with vanderlion and in the eu to have much closer ties on what defense some sort of shared defense
00:28:27.260
policy and some other things i think energy yeah it was energy was the big thing as well that we're
00:28:33.340
like locked into their energy policy and it's done on some sort of sliding scale depending on how big
00:28:41.740
our economy is compared to theirs and stuff so again we'd have to the net result of all of that is that
00:28:48.380
we pay them loads of money billions and billions of pounds and we're locked into an energy policy
00:28:54.300
that may not be almost certainly won't be ideal for us why are you doing that so queer why are you
00:29:00.220
doing that bro why who asked for that didn't we have a referendum about all this crazy crazy everything
00:29:09.660
he does everything he does is uh not in the national interest isn't it kind of everything
00:29:18.380
mad mad mad he will go down history as one of the worst m pms of all time all right the mirror
00:29:31.660
exclusive social media plea save our next generation there you go there's the poor grieving mother
00:29:40.460

to get you to agree with having your own freedom of speech and expression curtailed
00:29:57.020
the sun after fury oh yeah this is one of the sun look at this this is their front page
00:30:08.620
line of duty h-bomb villain id twist so there's this program for anyone who doesn't know anyone
00:30:13.020
doesn't particularly watch tv or anyone who isn't from britain there's a show called line of duty
00:30:19.260
just a show a fictional scripted drama show on tv these are the characters in it there you go
00:30:27.580
and the whole front page of the sun today is about but then something like the new series
00:30:33.500
it starts the last series ended on a cliffhanger and now the new series is started and there is going
00:30:39.420
to be some sort of reveal who the arch baddie is in it that's the front page of the news of the of the
00:30:44.780
sun the front page some some tv show it's quite popular i understand i've never watched a single
00:30:58.140
it looks completely bland but no intention of watching a second of it and even though it's reasonably
00:31:04.140
popular it's not insanely popular it's not like uh it's not like a whole cultural phenomenon or
00:31:10.140
anything but there you go that's the front page there's a new series of line of duty starting that's
00:31:16.380
important according to the editor of the sun mental they're mental all right that's the front pages let's
00:31:25.820
have a wee look at our um our poll what did we ask today harry what was what did we pose
00:31:34.220
today we said uh should britain have closer ties with the eu there you go all right and so a resounding
00:31:45.180
win again in line with my thoughts and feelings 83 of you say no i mean you're the glorious band in
00:31:51.260
the chosen few i can rely on you guys you're my people i can rely on you guys um we're simpatico
00:32:04.700
83 of you say no good which is the correct answer
00:32:10.220
um 10 said not sure which is always fair enough i think if you don't really know enough about things
00:32:16.380
that's fair enough to say isn't it uh but a dirty dirty seven percent of you say yes
00:32:27.020
there's the door don't really hit you on the ass in the way out no don't go no don't go stay
00:32:40.380
there you go now 84 boom that's a win if it was a referendum on something
00:32:45.180
you'd claim for all time that you've got a mandate of heaven on that one wouldn't you all right let's
00:32:51.820
move on uh okay let's have a look at the normal websites where's my mouse okay there it is
00:33:04.380
all right uh bbc clinton oh this is rich this is rich hillary clinton accuses trump administration of
00:33:12.060
epstein files cover up in bbc interview okay a little bit but when you look into the details
00:33:18.380
what she's coming out with is the most insane you know that kind of thing if you accuse your enemies
00:33:24.540
of the things you do she's just done a 180 on on everything like she's accusing them of getting
00:33:30.860
you've got to get the files out they're they're slow walking it um what was the other thing she said
00:33:36.620
um she said um like that sunlight is the best disinfectant yeah right she said everyone should
00:33:45.660
testify sorry hillary wasn't it you and bill just like one week ago or two weeks ago that were
00:33:53.100
subpoenaed to testify and you refused and it was only when you were being threatened with
00:33:57.660
further prosecution that you relented now you've wanted on that and pretending and pretending it's
00:34:04.700
always been your position and she says things in that interview that are quoted saying we've always
00:34:10.780
been on record of saying everything should come out and the sunlight is the best disinfectant and
00:34:15.020
everyone that's involved should testify and and it's the trump administration that have done all the
00:34:19.740
wrong things about all of this even though under the biden and obama years and things
00:34:28.620
they didn't they didn't do anything with the epstein stuff
00:34:34.940
i mean talk about talk about lying talk about uh oh they're just the worst aren't they the clintons
00:34:41.900
hillary clinton hillary clinton hillary clinton gross gross i remember that time just before when
00:34:50.540
she thought she was uh gonna beat trump she tweeted it was her own birthday and she said she tweeted a
00:34:56.940
picture of herself as a child saying happy birthday to this future president because all the polls in 2016
00:35:05.260
all the polls were saying she would win i remember i remember it clearly very very clearly
00:35:12.380
i was already in my mid-30s or whatever um but yeah all the polls were saying she's going to win
00:35:17.420
and it will almost certainly be a landslide um she will be the next president like right up to the day
00:35:24.140
before the election before the vote absolutely everyone thought she would be president and obviously she
00:35:31.820
did as well gross it's the worst just the absolute worst type of human just look at it look at that
00:35:40.860
you want that to be the rule of the it's like this sort of sort of an insane karen you can sort of see
00:35:46.940
the insanity in her eyes am i overstating this you can sort of see the watery the watery boomer
00:35:54.060
insanity the entitled the entitlement sort of mad karen
00:36:02.540
all right talk about all sorts of things look i i think everyone should testify who is asked to
00:36:08.060
testify you were asked to testify and you did everything in your power not to they came that
00:36:12.140
close to sending the us marshals around putting you in handcuffs and forcing you to testify oh but
00:36:17.100
now you're saying you think everyone should testify these people shameless absolutely shameless
00:36:27.340
we will show up what we think it would be better to have it in public
00:36:41.980
actually that's what you're saying now okay we have nothing to hide we have called for the full
00:36:47.820
release of these files repeatedly have you we think sunlight is the best disinfectant
00:36:52.540
the most disinject that's been very kind disingenuous
00:36:55.260
all right what else have we got um facing a demographic catastrophe ukraine is paying for
00:37:13.500
troops to freeze their sperm yeah it's a a lot of the men folk in ukraine are being killed
00:37:21.180
to the point where it's changing it will change their demographic
00:37:32.620
how many you're gonna you're gonna wipe out all the fighting age men of ukraine
00:37:43.820
i mean trump's calling might see later when we look at the washington post or the
00:37:48.380
the new york times there's an article there oh no it's on it's in the russian one
00:37:52.780
where trump's saying zelensky needs to come to the table asap we wait we're waiting on zelensky
00:38:00.700
i mean how many men are you gonna you're gonna have you're gonna butcher all your fighting age
00:38:04.220
men is that what you're gonna do but people have said pro-ukraine people
00:38:08.860
they said what if it was your country though like how would you come to the table if say kent
00:38:17.020
or cornwall had been invaded by france let's say just making this up but you know
00:38:26.460
like how how many how long before you just gave that up and just conceded it came to the peace table
00:38:31.580
and um accepted that you'd lost that bit of land
00:38:36.540
well if so many englishmen would if we'd done the battlefield thing for a few years three four
00:38:43.340
five years whatever it is if we'd done that for years and we were losing so many men that it was
00:38:48.540
ruining our demographic for all time then i would come i would be talking about and advocate for
00:38:54.620
coming to the peace table and letting france keep cornwall or kent then if that was the case
00:39:03.820
right a portion of the country isn't worth all the fighting age men in it is it i don't think so
00:39:12.380
well go on then the slava ukraine then the pro-ukraine people then great
00:39:16.220
great there will hardly be any ukrainian men left in the world then well done well done brilliant
00:39:22.780
all right let's have a look was there anything on itv news was there a couple of stories worth
00:39:34.460
talking about look there's new sermon ed miller band to complete two men that are basically retarded as
00:39:46.540
they're spending hundreds of millions of pounds on nonsense oh here's a story at a tay tay concert
00:39:56.060
a taylor swift concert in austria uh some muslim man was going to try and blow it up and kill loads
00:40:02.140
of people you know like ariana grande style they don't like music
00:40:10.220
they go an austrian man just an austrian man a 21 year old austrian man
00:40:14.220
just an austrian man has been charged with terrorism offenses and is accused of planning
00:40:18.860
to carry out an attack at a taylor swift gig in vienna the unnamed defendant
00:40:25.580
had declared allegiance to the to the islamic state group
00:40:29.020
by sharing propaganda material he's just a man he's just a 21 year old austrian man
00:40:36.620
like in isis you can't have music no music that's haram or dancing dancing is definitely haram
00:40:48.540
a woman without her head covered bare arms singing and dancing
00:40:56.060
that's satanic that's satanic that's monstrous you can't have that best try and blow it up but
00:41:04.220
any fans that like that they really deserve death don't they blow it up
00:41:08.940
that's they're thinking that's what happened with the ariana grande thing it's all terribly haram and
00:41:20.780
ariana grande and her fans or tay tay and her fans
00:41:27.580
look look she's like she's happy and singing and dancing and comfortable in her own skin
00:41:39.980
just an austrian man just a 21 year old austrian man
00:41:50.140
choose to ignore it if you want bury your head in the sand if you want about all of that
00:41:57.260
or wake up and understand that this is the sort of threat we're dealing with
00:42:01.820
we've got millions of these people people that think like that or have ideas and a world view
00:42:09.420
that's quite similar to that adjacent to that you've allowed millions of them into our countries
00:42:22.380
right can be politics joe or something can be the guardian or whatever and pretend
00:42:34.460
pretend someone like me noticing it and talking about it is just just a crazy bigot
00:42:40.620
just a crazy racist although islam isn't a race is it it's a religion
00:42:50.700
there are lots of people like this 21 year old austrian man
00:42:57.020
that would want something as simple as a music concert to be destroyed
00:43:03.980
can't have music and fun and women aren't covered up can't have singing
00:43:09.420
all right sky news young boys who don't know their fathers they're lost are they part of the problem
00:43:23.020
far be it from me to give any sort of answer to that
00:43:26.380
oh but also completely unrelated loads of uh young people arrested for steamy mobile phones
00:43:31.340
there you go hundreds arrested for phone theft in london as met police calls on courts to stop releasing offenders
00:43:45.020
yeah mobile phone theft particularly in london is gigantic isn't it
00:43:49.180
danny dyer there mockney with his extremely exaggerated cockney accent
00:43:54.940
he's not that cockney by the way danny dyer you're having a bubble bath ain't you
00:44:01.820
isn't he's exaggerating he's pretending there he cares about the how pure water is the water supply
00:44:08.940
i tested our water supply did you danny did you it was fascinating was it was it you're fascinated by it yeah
00:44:16.540
yeah people actually from essex and east london all know that danny dyer is a mockney
00:44:32.860
all right let's have a look what else have we got the mail yeah this is a one-off story but it's in
00:44:37.980
the news a bit today this guy here some teenagers 15 and 16 year olds thought he was a paedophile
00:44:46.780
i'm not sure whether he is or not the article i read the article i read a couple of articles about it
00:44:50.780
they never confirm whether he was or not they definitely don't say he was
00:44:54.940
so i can only sort of assume he wasn't this guy was like in his 40s late 40s 49
00:45:01.180
they thought he was a paedophile so they beat him to death
00:45:06.860
or they throw stone they threw rocks at him i don't know if actually deliberately meant to murder him
00:45:13.180
but they did kill him i mean they were convicted of manslaughter they threw rocks at him and so
00:45:17.900
some obviously hit him in the head and he died and when the police arrested the teenager sort of at the
00:45:23.100
scene they said uh we we thought we did the right thing because the police was he was a pedo and the
00:45:29.980
police aren't going to do anything about it so we did the right thing if anything they didn't know he
00:45:33.420
was dead at that point anyway he did die terrible crazy story ridiculous ridiculous story
00:45:46.860
all right what is there oh uh william and kate never really liked beatrice and eugenie apparently
00:45:52.860
they're andrew's daughters and obviously that's king charles's son and his wife so they're cousins
00:46:00.380
these two are his cousin and he never really liked him anyway particularly so he's not he's
00:46:04.700
not going to struggle to sort of cut them out they're disgraced by proxy because of andrew
00:46:13.580
all right uh the pure slop something about millionaire influence influences pure slop won't
00:46:20.540
even look at that don't care about that fergie oh look she's like oh there's a thing like the
00:46:27.100
picture of dorian gray where you're so evil well it's not actually it's the opposite isn't it in
00:46:33.420
dorian gray all the evilness gets put onto a portrait that's kept in the attic and you look youthful
00:46:37.820
forever but normal people well you're so evil for so many years that you actually start looking evil
00:46:45.660
like chumps gears i think like sarah ferguson like fergie yeah that the evil's really starting to
00:46:52.940
show through now really starting to show through all right oh yeah there's trump trump makes scathing
00:47:02.780
swipe against ed milliband's climate pact with the us yeah he just said it's like foolish and and stupid
00:47:10.860
and all of that all right let's have a look the sun there's pure slop today an individual case of
00:47:16.060
someone that was abused as a child and out of an ant and deck his dog has died oh look what a good boy
00:47:23.900
but yeah his dog died big news um that paedophile that some kids beat to death a pot a really big
00:47:33.020
pothole sinkhole sorry sinkhole really big sinkhole that hasn't been fixed for a year important stuff
00:47:39.900
isn't it really important stuff um the the lose track at the winter olympics is cut is too hard
00:47:48.220
it's a bit concrete hurt in the back of some of the athletes it's a bit hard there you go someone
00:47:54.140
someone individual person got hit by a car oh look boom
00:48:02.620
he didn't die though they don't show you if he died he's essentially all right but the person was on
00:48:06.780
the phone on their car so don't don't drive around on your phone because you might hit someone
00:48:12.860
another fight in the street you know important stuff important stuff from the sun there you go
00:48:17.100
all right let's jump across the pond let's jump across the old pond to the new york slimes us and
00:48:23.100
iran gear up for nuclear talks amid rising tensions yeah i think the iranians have got a few weeks they've
00:48:29.740
got three weeks before the uss gerald r r falls the second carrier group steams across the atlantic
00:48:37.820
around the around the cape around the bottom of africa into the arabian sea that will take about
00:48:47.100
four weeks roughly and once the us have got the abraham lincoln and the gerald fall there
00:48:55.420
a whole contingency an extra carrier group for contingency then they can start doing what they
00:49:05.580
want really in the skies above persia and trump said that has said that to like the the iranians
00:49:13.820
you've got four weeks we're going to give you four weeks and then if you haven't sort of made a deal
00:49:18.460
with us if you haven't capitulated to what we want you to do basically then
00:49:21.580
you know stuff's probably going to start happening so
00:49:28.060
in iran slain protesters memorials will test state crackdown
00:49:33.100
all right ukraine and russia hold peace talks but expectations are low now
00:49:41.020
it looked like they were going to start coming to the table didn't it about a week ago
00:49:44.140
both sides sort of making noises that they were prepared to make a deal
00:49:47.100
but that seems to have they've backed away from things like that a bit now whether it's
00:49:53.660
zelensky this time or not because over the last year or so it's been mainly been putin
00:49:59.660
but zelensky saying i'm ready to talk let's talk let's talk and it's putin going no no i don't want
00:50:03.260
to i don't need to now it's flipped again whereas the russians want a deal and zelensky seems to be
00:50:08.940
dragging his feet i mean all right well there you go let's have a look at the uh the washington post
00:50:19.500
popular anger burns in iran after crackdown as trump turns up pressure as the trump
00:50:23.820
administration heads into nuclear talks with tehran after a government crackdown killed thousands
00:50:32.700
mitch mcconnell is the loser in the race to replace him in the senate so yeah mitch mcconnell
00:50:50.940
uh he's so vacant he's lost his marbles has he he's lost his marbles you see a while ago a few
00:50:55.260
months ago he was talking to the press and just sort of mid-sentence just sort of goes all vacant
00:51:00.220
like forgets what he's talking about so yeah he's going to be replaced uh because he's suffering
00:51:09.580
from senility i don't know is there something wrong there shan't shed a tear for mitch mcconnell though
00:51:22.940
us versus them the battle that okay it's not an important something about an individual
00:51:26.540
town somewhere in virginia all right the aussies the aussies the taxpayer will have to pay for
00:51:33.180
poorly planned renewable energy infrastructure of course because it costs an absolute arm and a leg
00:51:39.340
and never really works properly so get used to that everyone in the west whose governments insist on

00:52:53.580
despite a a clearly uh corrupt plebiscite most of the people there do want to be russian it seems
00:53:08.220
yeah the germans someone the other day accused me of like not don't talk about ukraine you don't
00:53:16.060

00:53:26.460
history let's let's talk about the the uh let's talk about the the ninth century in ukraine what became
00:53:34.780
ukraine let's talk about that i could talk about that for hours could you let's talk about the

00:53:46.780
ukraine i can talk about that i've read all of the uh gulag archipelago there's loads and loads of
00:53:52.860
details about the relationship between white russia and the ukrainians in that talk about that for hours
00:53:59.420
could you know a fair bit about ukrainian history thanks these people they often say that if they
00:54:09.100
don't agree with you it's like you just don't know anything about it really like don't talk about art
00:54:14.300
history don't have an opinion about art because you know nothing about it well what if you do though
00:54:19.420
what if you do okay in build in the um uh same as always just talking about car crashes and and the
00:54:33.900
weather a fair bit um in build even build go with that pokemon card thing big news don't worry about
00:54:42.620
the destruction of your country and things your demographic replacement and impending civil
00:54:47.500
potential civil war here is a pokemon card story about pokemon the french who are france's second
00:54:54.860
homeowners don't care okay um the space news there wasn't a great deal of space news uh china still
00:55:02.540
um testing and launching things um all right should we just move on to on this day in history
00:55:09.900
because i like that you guys like that let's do that all right what happened on this day the 17th of
00:55:15.260
february in history in the year 1568 the treaty of adrian opel representatives of the holy roman
00:55:22.380
emperor maximilian ii and ottoman sultan selim ii agree to a peace plan ending the war between the
00:55:28.780
habsburg monarchy and the ottoman empire maximilian agrees to provide a cash quote present quote and
00:55:34.860
ruling authority is granted to the ottomans in transylvania moldavia and wallachia
00:55:39.740
so yeah this is like this is a fair long time after um flagged the impaler got content all about
00:55:46.220
flagged the impaler uh this is quite a while after that like 100 years or so after so um uh but yeah
00:55:53.420
this is you could argue around the time of the higher watermark of the ottoman empire's encroachment into
00:56:00.060
europe um yeah so it's in and around these generations where the the the ottoman um scourge
00:56:14.940
gets as far it gets quite far into eastern europe southern eastern europe i mean transylvania what
00:56:20.060
that's like modern and uh moldavia that's and wallachia it's like that's modern romania hungary bulgaria
00:56:26.220
that whole region right you know they've taken all of greece it's way up in the balkans and beyond
00:56:32.940
um so yeah sort of sort of worrying times a lot of western europe and like start finally to become
00:56:41.180
genuinely concerned about about uh the sultan in constantinople sorry istanbul
00:56:49.500
all right in 1865 union forces led by william tecumseh sherman capture the state capital of
00:56:58.380
of columbia south carolina the city of columbia in south carolina the city is ablaze by nightfall
00:57:05.340
fanned by high winds devastating much of the city it is not known which side set the fires
00:57:12.380
that's one of those things um fascinated by the civil war made all sorts of content about the civil war
00:57:19.820
long-form bit of content with benjamin boyce talking about ulysses s grant and william
00:57:24.860
tecumseh chairman he's marched to the sea 60 miles in ladder to 300 to the main
00:57:33.100
yeah he had an army group an army corps 60 miles wide that marched straight through georgia smashed and
00:57:39.420
burnt atlanta raised atlanta georgia marched all the way to the main the sea marching through the carolinas
00:57:46.220
making his roads while he went through the swamps of carolina all the way to columbia burn that down
00:57:53.580
now most people think sherman himself and the union forces burnt down raised destroyed atlanta and
00:58:02.540
columbia well atlanta certainly it was more the case really that the confederate forces as they left
00:58:09.900
burnt it down because they thought they they thought it was like a tactical
00:58:17.980
to prevent the union forces from getting what was there but the union forces already had all their
00:58:24.540
own material and food and everything they needed um as it says there is not known which side started
00:58:30.220
the fires it might have been the retreating confederate forces anyone from the south would
00:58:34.860
say that's nonsense william sherman william to come to sherman was a monster and a butcher and it
00:58:41.100
must have been him it must have been the evil yankees that did it well i mean read the accounts in detail
00:58:47.020
and um you'll see that it's not that it's not the sherman's forces didn't do terrible things in that march to
00:58:56.220
the sea they certainly did things that would be considered atrocities these days but it's not as black and
00:59:02.540
white as you might think it's not as straightforward as the union just everything that evil evil was
00:59:08.620
done was the union that the confederates didn't deliberately try and leave leave a scorched earth
00:59:14.220
policy right that's a thing isn't it if you're retreating don't leave a single pig for the advancing
00:59:22.140
forces you do you do a scorched earth policy on your own country right
00:59:26.060
it's not inconceivable is it all right on this day in the 17th of february in 1786 sardines were first
00:59:37.020
canned by julius wolf in east port maine oh that's important isn't it that's what a weird bit of
00:59:45.500
trivia and knowledge that is in 1972 the british parliament votes to join the european economic
00:59:50.540
community yeah terrible stupid idea yeah always always a bad idea all right let's uh go to because
01:00:01.100
we're very near the top of the hour let's have a look at the rumble rents in the super chat says we've
01:00:04.620
got one rumble rant from johnny logo who says a full epstein list is out okay cool yeah i think that
01:00:11.980
was yesterday they released that but um if there's an even fuller one great um good
01:00:22.780
where hillary clinton said it um is in in a disingenuous way i mean it i mean it sincerely
01:00:30.300
sunlight is the best disinfectant let's get it all out in the open if anyone needs to be prosecuted do
01:00:36.460
it all right on youtube the super chats a global church history says aim higher vote low
01:00:45.100
then he ruins it you're in it mate he says aim higher vote low crown lamby oh i can't agree with
01:00:51.660
the last sentiment can't can't go with you on that one aim high and vote low yes crown lamby
01:00:57.340
okay thanks for the super chat anyway um dylan lindsey 6794 says bo are you going to join restore
01:01:09.100
and run for mp well i'm already a member of restore or was like the the straight away straight away
01:01:18.460
run for an mp well that's a conversation that will need to be had if they want me i'll do it
01:01:22.780
loads of people have asked me this on twitter loads of different times and i've always said the same
01:01:25.980
thing i said it also on the state of politics state of politics my channel with nate off mr h reviews
01:01:32.940
um i said it on there and tweeted it out a couple of times if they want me i'll do it i can totally
01:01:39.100
understand they might not want me i'm a little bit toxic i've said loads of super super spicy things
01:01:45.660
right loads on twitter loads of examples of me calling people ridiculous insults f-bombs c-bombs all
01:01:53.340
over the place i might be a bit too toxic on if not if they want me i'll do it sure i'll do it but
01:02:01.260
if they don't i don't mind it's not my life's ambition to become an mp i would like to do it
01:02:06.780
i would be interested in do it but it's not my whole raise on debt it's not my reason for being
01:02:13.100
i can never be complete as a man unless i'm a member of parliament i'm not one of those people
01:02:17.660
it's my childhood dream but um if they want me i'll do it i mean it is it is like a ball lake
01:02:25.580
like badly badly the process of running is extremely difficult and extremely tiring
01:02:34.540
and then being an mp is also very very stressful and tiring and you might get charlie kirk you might
01:02:41.500
get david amist it's a genuine worry isn't it nonetheless despite all of that if they want me
01:02:48.060
i'll do it well i'll give it a whirl probably wouldn't win with the best will in the world
01:02:52.380
anyway i i would have thought i'd run in swindon south and the incumbent is the transport secretary
01:03:01.100
with a half decent majority behind her heidi alexander
01:03:04.540
a disgusting fat woman see they might not want me because i say stuff like that
01:03:12.780
she's got a half decent majority so um probably probably wouldn't win anyway
01:03:18.380
um yeah if they want me i'll do it put it that way all right uh
01:03:25.100
krish 281 says isn't bullying code for actually asking the civil servant to do their job right yeah yeah right
01:03:35.500
yeah dear civil servant actually do your job oh you're bullying me oh i'm being bullied don't ask
01:03:42.140
me to actually turn up to the office and do my job yeah fair point mr gently benevolent says uh
01:03:51.980
work for bosses who are bullies yeah a lot of people have yeah be honest beau is colgon bullying you
01:04:04.220
now carl is uh i must say you might think this is just under duress and i've got to say it i don't
01:04:10.060
at all carl is a great boss he's a great boss he's very hands-on he doesn't micromanage
01:04:16.540
and he's a friend he's he's he's he's just a friend who happens to sign off on paychecks
01:04:29.980
uh lap code 92 just a few bucks to keep to keep this bromance going soldier on lads cheers cheers
01:04:39.020
for the few bucks the bromance me and my audience
01:04:50.460
luke stuart 6155 says good day i hope you're doing okay dumb question i thought rubio said
01:04:56.700
he would back vance okay well fair enough if you said that i'd either forgotten that or didn't see
01:05:01.180
it at the time if he just has already said that it's a bit early to say that isn't it but anyway
01:05:05.100
if you said that might go back on it if the polling says he could be the prayers he might
01:05:10.300
go back on that but okay uh dumb question i thought rubio said he would back vance a lot of people think
01:05:15.500
it will be advance and rubio ticket yeah maybe yeah i mean that's totally yeah so vance
01:05:22.060
vance is prayers rubio is vice prayers yeah advance rubio ticket yeah i mean quite possibly
01:05:28.220
and then maybe even after that rubio gets a shot it's not always the case but very often isn't it
01:05:33.660
that the vice president it's it's they're they're the the crown prince they're the
01:05:41.500
they're the president in waiting absolutely not always the case but often yeah okay
01:05:46.860
what else have we got quite a few more got a few more here uh principled uncertainty said uh i'd rather
01:05:53.180
be unalived by a general secretary polensky in 202 after a noble trier
01:05:59.980
then farage win and sell out the uk for clout okay i'd rather be unalived by a general secretary
01:06:10.460
polensky i guess you're missing a digit there in 2028 2029 uh after a noble trier then farage win and
01:06:20.300
sell out the uk for clout okay i mean i sort of see what you mean yeah i sort of see what you're saying
01:06:23.660
yeah all the reform people are like you can't possibly split the vote the vote isn't being split
01:06:30.780
there's one party that's for mass remigration and all the others that aren't
01:06:36.700
and so no vote is being split on that count and so you can't possibly vote for anyone other than
01:06:41.820
reform because you just end up with labor not necessarily doesn't really make any real sense
01:06:46.140
i'm not interested in that argument anymore that's what kept the tories in power for 14 years
01:06:50.380
no no i'm gonna vote with what i want actually i'm gonna vote with what i want
01:06:59.100
screw you screw nigel screw tuss zia yusuf matt goodwin ugh all of them get away from me
01:07:09.980
all right 40 and barber says sweet haircut bow and the beard looks tidy af
01:07:31.340
yeah thank you thank you it's good of you to say um okay and the last one global church history again
01:07:44.460
says today in 1776 gibbon's decline and fall is published oh that's interesting that's great one of
01:07:51.660
my favorite books of all time i'm constantly rereading the decline of fall by edward gibbon
01:07:56.460
i've got more than one copy nearly always got one by my bed and as soon as i finish reading it more or
01:08:03.340
less give maybe a few months i'll go around and start reading it again got it on audiobook listen to
01:08:09.420
it on audiobook i'm sort of obsessed with gibbon's decline and fall of the roman empire it's great um
01:08:16.380
i honestly think it's one of the greatest pieces of literature ever non-fiction
01:08:21.660
it's superb give it a read once you get your ear in it's quite antiquated i mean it's late 18th century
01:08:27.500
so it's not easy to read but once you get used to it you know like shakespeare at first it's sort of
01:08:32.300
difficult to get into but once you get used to it brilliant i advise anyone to listen to it on
01:08:38.700
audiobook or read it so thanks for that global church history brilliant good to know all right that
01:08:44.780
