00:01:40.720
tune into that every morning radio 2 and it's like their premiere radio slot and whoever has
00:01:47.840
that slot is sort of semi-famous well very famous in radio world and like usually the same person

00:02:43.600
man in his early 50s a gay man he's got a male husband okay so he's been sacked now that is
00:02:54.640
all over the front pages of the news today they've decided they're getting bored with iran
00:02:58.640
cabal the fleet street editors yeah a bit bored of iran lads yeah let's do something else
00:03:04.800
can dog pile on scott mills who may or may not have done something terrible
00:03:27.120
And they've threatened to do a strike, a walkout
00:04:00.240
And where they've struck and played all sorts of games
00:04:06.800
They got all sorts of concessions out of the government
00:04:28.140
The strikes of yesteryear were so much more badass
00:04:41.500
or a rail union, we'll walk out for a couple of days
00:04:51.300
this little concession we already gave you, we might
00:05:10.440
you had to come back with your towel between your legs
0.98
00:05:20.320
I'm not saying it's necessarily better that way
00:05:34.880
All right, anyway, let's get into it. The Guardian.
00:05:47.460
Okay, there's Scott Mills. There's a picture of gay Scott Mills.
0.75
00:05:57.580
So, the story is that we don't know exactly what he did.
00:06:04.880
because Scott himself and the person or people I think it's one person who might
00:06:12.980
have been might have been his victim neither of those people have come out
00:06:17.560
and said exactly what it is that he's supposed to have done what his conduct
00:06:22.400
was that is so bad however what it seems like it is what a lot of the report is I
00:06:32.120
don't spend too much time on this because i don't care about scott mills or bbc radio at all
0.81
00:06:37.600
other than to just say you know the bbc is some sort of den of sex criminals the number of sex
0.96
00:06:44.920
criminals full-blown shown to be convicted sex criminals that come out of the bbc is mad
0.95
00:06:52.700
man like way way way way way above average for like the general population i mean how many sex
00:07:01.260
criminals are there per 1 000 people per 10 000 people right at the bbc way above that anyway this
00:07:07.960
is the latest one he hasn't so okay the story is in 2016 no long you know long time ago 10 years ago
00:07:16.200
um he was in trouble with the police over a possible i don't know i don't even know if it
00:07:26.040
was actual full-blown sexual assault or not but some sort of impropriety with a teenage boy
00:07:31.100
right and the police investigated it at the time and found that like there wasn't enough evidence
00:07:40.480
they didn't go through with a full trial and prosecution because they may or the cps
00:07:45.200
made the calculation that they probably wouldn't win at trial
00:07:49.180
the crown wouldn't win at trial so so they don't go through the trial that's how that works
00:07:55.080
they thought there wasn't enough evidence okay doesn't mean you didn't do it
00:08:00.060
it means the authorities don't think they can prove you did it i don't know whether he did it
00:08:05.460
or not i don't know what he did okay so all that happened in 2016 10 years ago and then last week
00:08:13.840
the bbc made a decision what more information what new or more information they got
00:08:20.460
or whether other news outlets other news organs told them we've got some some dirt and we're
00:08:29.720
going to go to print with it about old scott mills your star your star radio dude morning
00:08:35.140
breakfast show flagship dude i don't know any of that but the bbc obviously got some new information
00:08:42.420
and they decided they're just going to fire him straight away or more or less straight away he's
00:08:48.200
taking off the air tuesday or wednesday last week and then over the weekend the bbc told him
00:08:52.960
you're fired dude you're completely completely your contract's done you're not under investigation
00:08:57.520
or anything like that pending no you're done you're fired
00:09:00.540
there you go that's not usually how the bbc do things usually they
00:09:05.860
they do an investigation and keep someone on the books for like
00:09:08.900
weeks or months while they do an investigation i don't usually just
00:09:11.600
fire you outright it suggests that they've got some sort of terrible slam
00:09:16.460
dunk information a scoop but so far the chattering
00:09:21.060
classes and all people like you or i don't actually know
00:09:25.340
what he's supposed to have done what is this thing in 2016
00:09:28.540
just a historical relationship that's the thing that's come out they keep saying
00:09:33.620
it's to do with his personal conduct and a historical relationship
00:09:40.880
and that he was sort of in trouble with the police in 2016 to some degree which didn't
00:09:48.040
end in a trial in any way that's it okay that's it that's all over the front pages
00:09:53.460
all right let's move on Scott Mills who cares really Trump threat to obliterate all Iranian
0.95
00:10:02.340
power plants yeah time's running out for the Iranians and their power plants the Donald's
1.00
00:10:08.680
set to blow them up basically they don't open the Straits of Hormuz and just basically accept
0.59
00:10:16.560
defeat which they're not going to do does it everything about the Iranian regime tells me
00:10:35.940
They just do the thing they say they're going to do
00:10:47.760
Worried about the safety of the migrant people
1.00
00:10:53.320
Not the safety of the natives of this island, and who the people are coming in, what kind of backgrounds they've got, their rate per capita of crime. Not our safety, the safety of the boat crossing migrant people themselves. They might drown in the channel.
1.00
00:11:09.440
yeah that's some sort of story this morning looks like uh the deal i think the deal
00:11:15.900
for what it's worth which is almost nothing comes to an end at like midnight tonight i read that
00:11:20.900
somewhere i think that's the case or midnight last night or midnight tomorrow night i don't
00:11:24.460
know soon very soon but what's it worth anyway the french police just simply aren't stopping
00:11:54.800
due to lack of evidence okay we've been through all that
00:12:10.180
I told you everything you really need to know about it
00:12:24.000
BBC Crisis as another scandal hit presenter is sacked
00:12:30.680
See, they've decided on their little WhatsApp message
00:12:33.460
We're going with Scott Mills tomorrow, yeah guys
00:12:43.360
And George Osborne and 5th Baron Rothschild, yeah
00:13:33.880
cliff edge stuff Beatrice and Eugenie those two princesses Andrews Andrew
00:13:43.600
Mountbatten's two daughters there they're probably not going to be invited
00:13:47.800
to the palace for Easter it's a miss Easter service well the service and the
00:13:53.440
and the palace after I'm gonna be invited to Easter estranged cousins
00:14:05.480
the cousins war Britain faces biggest hit from Middle East energy crisis
00:14:11.960
walls IMF we'll see we'll see we can refine crude into petrol gasoline petrol
00:14:21.260
ourselves diesel not so much we can get crude from anywhere else we can get
00:14:26.720
crude from the United States crude the United States makes more crude like West
00:14:30.860
Texas or whatever loads of makes more crude than it needs it's a net exporter
00:14:35.420
of crude the worst comes to the worst we'll just get all our crude from the
00:14:40.100
United States but then turning that crude into petrol and diesel we can do
00:14:48.260
petrol but not these I mean again we can do diesel but we don't we can't make
00:14:53.300
enough diesel for our own domestic use so not only do we obviously have to
00:14:59.420
import crude we actually have to import some of a quarter or a third or a fifth
00:15:08.780
well that'll be expensive that'll be expensive relatively expensive if you've got a diesel car
00:15:24.220
probably worst hit worst hit the price of oil let's talk about oil briefly
00:15:30.580
price this morning or an hour or so ago an hour and a quarter ago something like that
00:15:35.700
west texas was about 100 102 and brent was at like 112 odd
00:15:42.480
so again expensive not really anywhere near all-time high and not insanely expensive
00:15:50.800
insanely expensive but high but high there's no doubt about that i'm you know i'm not
00:15:55.000
not saying it's not high and plus as this thing goes on the difference between the actual
00:16:03.280
raw price of a barrel of crude against what you actually pay at the pump will diverge as well
00:16:11.200
i.e the price of a barrel of crude might not be insanely higher but the price of your actual
00:16:19.580
petrol at a petrol station does still keep ticking up for all sorts of complicated reasons
00:16:24.760
okay france digs its feet in over migrant crossing yeah they don't help they won't help us
1.00
00:16:35.560
It's less foreign chancers and criminals in their country
1.00
00:16:48.000
It's obviously not like the 14th century, the Hundred Years' War
00:16:58.620
They don't think the French are our friend in any way
0.94
00:17:28.660
Starmer gives reckless junior doctors 48 hours to call off strikes
00:17:49.560
War brings in 20 million pounds a day extra in energy taxes
00:18:25.440
borrow so much that the interest repayments on the borrowing is unsustainable
00:18:33.020
just keep cramming hundreds of thousands of more people on most of which or maybe not most but a
00:18:43.980
lot of which are a net drain on the economy what do you expect an nhs bill which is absolutely
00:19:27.760
Isn't that the most disastrous thing you could do?
00:19:35.100
Short of someone like John McDonnell or something
00:19:50.100
And then just sort of, just couldn't, I couldn't even.
00:20:00.300
And it's a story about in places in the world where there's sort of more manliness or macho-ness.
00:20:11.740
Places like, what was it, they listed a few places like, what was it, Ghana, Iran.
00:20:27.320
They're the most unhappiest places in the world
00:20:49.380
what he's arguing for front page print front page the times all right the eye paper
00:20:58.900
should we read the quick blurb i'm not sure if it's worth it this morning should we read it
00:21:03.180
we'll quickly run through it pm meets uk fuel bosses as prices rise at the pumps
00:21:08.460
prime minister urges business leaders to help limit fallout from iran war during number 10
00:21:14.960
summit with bosses from energy shipping and banking public wants action on food prices
00:21:19.920
petrol and home energy says starmer in call for joint effort
00:21:23.940
okay so in the cabinet room that's the cabinet room in number 10 these are not other government
00:21:34.720
cabinet ministers they're sort of the titans of industry important people in business
00:21:39.620
He sat around going, let's all pull together guys
00:21:49.580
Why would you do that, it's like a performative thing
00:21:54.560
But like, to let the cameras in and do it on camera
00:21:58.120
It's just really, really performative to me, it seems
00:22:07.580
on average and diesel up to one pound 81 that is a lot in it for diesel still
00:22:13.180
i mean keep it in some perspective it's more than it was
00:22:18.700
uh i don't feel like it's completely insane like the price of crude still
00:22:24.600
as much as the corporate mainstream media want you to panic and think it's insanely high it's
00:22:30.840
not insanely high okay it goes on to say typical petrol car uh typical petrol car now costs
00:22:37.000
10 pound 55 more to fill than at the start of the war or 21 pound 35 for diesel so to fill
00:22:44.640
your petrol tank up 21 pound 35 more than it already was so that's a lot isn't it it's not
00:22:52.380
nothing, I don't feel like, I don't want to downplay it unnecessarily, but it's not absolutely
00:23:01.300
insane, and for petrol, £10.55 more than it was, you're right on the breadline, the
00:23:14.720
is if you own a car if you if you if you own a car then you've got enough money for insurance
00:23:24.980
road tax mot various other things enough to fill it up anyway so if you've got that sort of wealth
00:23:32.420
ie you're not in true true poverty even if you haven't got much money but you're not in true
00:23:38.580
poverty you can afford to buy and run a car another 10 pound on top of what it already was
00:23:46.260
to fill it up it's probably not going to bankrupt you is it and not that it's good i'm not trying
00:23:51.080
to say it's good or fine or anything i'm all i'm saying is keep it in some perspective
00:23:57.700
people that drive and are very close to the breadline probably extremely annoyed with that
00:24:02.820
take but i'm just saying right it's not 100 pound more all right all right it's not good though i'm
00:24:11.460
not saying it's good or it's fine or get over it it is bad it's not ideal just to be clear but
00:24:31.060
PM and fuel execs discuss UK's contingency plan for lower suppliers of diesel and jet fuel
00:24:42.580
make a deal soon on america and israel make a deal soon or america and israel will obliterate
0.88
00:24:50.820
iran power plants trump threatens quote new and more reasonable quote regime in tehran
00:24:57.400
so yeah he's like he'll threaten them and literally in like the next sentence or next breath
00:25:02.440
call them new and more reasonable so it's sort of a carrot and stick at exactly the same time
00:25:09.300
trying to be nice and trying to talk about making a deal in Pakistan or something but also if you
00:25:15.220
don't we'll destroy you okay that's uh that's Trump's type of diplomacy sometimes it works
00:25:24.600
doesn't it sometimes he does get exactly what he wants by being like that by doing that
00:25:29.060
he's at war diplomacy is done differently once you're actually at war isn't it
00:25:43.840
Easter bank holiday, because it's Easter next weekend isn't it
00:25:46.540
set to be the busiest on UK roads in four years
00:26:06.000
Hey, is the Express Editor in the group? Someone message him, someone message him, we're going with Scott Mills
00:26:11.200
Financial Times, they didn't get the Scott Mills memo, it's probably on page 2 but
00:26:20.700
Okay, the Financial Times, conflict talks, Trump and Iran at odds
00:26:25.880
Breaking news, breaking news, something about AI, French AI
00:26:43.920
Okay they go with something completely different
00:26:50.900
The Metro editor say no I'm going with the story
00:27:00.640
He was in the house and he deliberately blew it up with himself in it
00:27:04.860
it was a while ago was it like a year or two ago but now the investigation or
00:27:09.340
something has finished something like that so yeah this guy here this guy the
00:27:15.920
land he rented a house and the landlord put the rent up by 80 quid and that sent
00:27:23.280
him over the edge and he was like well I'm not paying it and they're like if
00:27:26.240
you've got you bro there's like no I'll blow the whole house up if you make me
00:27:31.100
pay more rent, and they were like, uh, and then he just did it, with himself in there,
00:27:37.880
like a suicide, there was a nervous laugh there, it was a suicide, a bit out of order
00:27:46.460
really, on the neighbours, isn't it, talk about a nightmare neighbour, yeah, with his
00:27:56.920
the gas oven he had a gas oven and um yeah and he said to his friend he said to a friend
00:28:03.280
it's going to go up with a bang man tells friend before dying in rubble from huge blast
00:28:09.740
interesting isn't it i would have thought there was other things going on in his life
00:28:16.140
it wasn't like he was perfectly happy and well balanced
00:28:28.020
It's probably right at the end of his tether anyway
00:29:34.620
Care a little bit about Scott Mills and his career
00:30:02.300
If you've tuned in live to Breakfast with Beau, the Beau show
00:30:25.220
whether he did something monstrous back in 2016
00:30:31.080
Who knows, Scott and or the teenager themselves
00:30:44.880
you would have thought he would have made a statement by now saying I deny any and all
00:30:50.560
wrongdoing you know I didn't do nothing there's nothing to this no just silence
00:30:55.420
doesn't bode particularly well for Scott all right you and I don't care so let's just move
00:31:04.060
on shall we look there's the junior doctors look thinking that they're like some sort of great
00:31:17.520
Stop thinking you're like some sort of badass union
00:31:39.820
the government is to change when police forces in england and wales record non-crite non-crime
00:31:45.080
hate incidents in a bid to end the policing of quote everyday arguments quote new home office
00:31:50.080
guidance will say the forces should only log incidents that are potentially relevant to
00:31:54.300
policing yeah considering you're not considering you're not really solving any hardly any burglaries
00:32:05.060
very very few sexual assaults like hardly any car thefts and phone thefts but you are spending
00:32:11.920
any time whatsoever on in on things that aren't relevant to policing that's mad
00:32:17.660
isn't it it's mad it comes after a review by police chiefs found the system developed in
00:32:25.220
mid-2000s had increasingly seen officers joining to policing debates on social media yeah
00:32:40.300
We've come round to just try and tone police you
00:33:00.460
calling it simply a rebrand well yeah so that's what i think it would be they're not actually
00:33:05.380
gonna force the police to stop doing this well before now in fact the government the home office
00:33:10.620
have asked the police to stop doing it and the police themselves said no we're just gonna keep
00:33:14.080
doing it all right uh what else do we have there was something on uh itv i thought was interesting
00:33:47.460
I'd rather just take money away from migrants
1.00
00:34:16.280
Or is it that our economy is completely stagnant?
00:35:00.620
If they were being paid like under minimum wage
00:35:24.400
ian huntley got murdered yeah all right there was something on sky news i thought was interesting
00:35:32.260
mildly mildly interesting i think i have to scroll down a fair bit for it um oh yeah here we go this
00:35:41.840
story classic classic stuff going back to sort of cold war stuff russia kicks out british diplomat
00:35:49.900
A diplomat, because Moscow accused them of spying.
00:35:56.660
The FBS, FBS, oh, FSB, FSB, the FSB, which is the KGB, really, the newer version of the KGB,
00:36:07.520
Russia's security service has accused the diplomat of attempting to gather information about the country's economy during meetings.
00:36:14.780
yeah so it always goes people that are quote unquote diplomats in the embassies around the
00:36:21.100
world are a lot of them not all of them of course but a lot of them are spies not necessarily like
00:36:28.300
a james bond spy that will go around with a silenced pistol shooting people or anything
00:36:32.820
like that trying to break into a foreign country's secure location not that type of spy
00:36:39.020
but i just go to trade delegations and i go to other embassies and i go to
00:36:44.660
higher meetings inside or if it's in russia in the kremlin for example or
00:36:49.120
the uh the russian equivalent of the foreign office whatever and just glean information
00:36:55.700
just glean any and all information they can at dinner parties and stuff like reasonably openly
00:37:01.960
like not not full-blown espionage skullduggery secret squirrel with a balaclava on and like
00:37:10.980
abseiling into rooms at night not that but still aspire though but still aspire
00:37:22.640
anyway i mean it's not even that uncommon that to this day if you now and again a story will come
00:37:31.680
up britain has uh expelled a russian diplomat or three russian diplomats and for a tit for tat
00:37:38.420
russia will expel three british ones it's not just britain and russia it's all all countries
0.95
00:37:42.560
we don't seem to ever do anything like that to china incidentally incidentally
00:37:48.860
never we we're never expelling chinese diplomats even though we know for a fact
0.99
00:38:00.840
All over us, infiltrate us in all sorts of ways
00:38:05.700
But we never do this tip for tat stuff, we're trying to never
00:38:07.640
Anyway, Russia, Russia's found a British one
0.99
00:38:21.240
Moscow also accused him of attempting to gather information
00:38:29.840
about the Russian economy during informal meetings
00:38:33.240
The FSB, the main successor for the Soviet era KGB
00:38:43.660
said it had detected an undeclared intelligence presence
00:38:47.700
okay you get it there's a great book i've mentioned it before a number of times i think it's a great
00:38:53.540
book some people think it's not so great but i think there's a great book called spire catcher
00:38:58.820
by an old mi5 guy peter wright great book people in mi5 try and discredit it and say it's all
00:39:08.820
nonsense he was crazy he's a crazy man really it's all a lot of it's lies and um exaggerations and
0.88
00:39:14.020
and it was all like a vanity project for himself.
1.00
00:39:23.040
a really good literary source of how MI5 and MI6 do stuff.
00:39:29.260
Because at one point, MI5 were tasked with sort of investigating MI6
00:39:34.500
or investigating themselves, possible moles, Russian moles.
00:39:40.480
um and it's built out into mi6 uh it's a complicated really long complicated story
00:39:48.140
anyway that book is really interesting in in interesting in so far as specifically the russian
00:39:56.680
and british relationship how they spy on each other how they have spied on each other over
00:40:03.440
the decades obviously spy catcher is much more in the cold war still 60s and 70s mainly but
00:40:09.800
it all still goes on to a much lesser degree it's dialed down right it's dialed down from those
00:40:14.020
days but still pretty much the same sorts of things go on on a smaller scale slightly less
00:40:20.240
well quite in less intense scale but it's still the same games it's still the same sorts of games
00:40:26.600
that go on by catcher pretty right consider checking it out i think it might be on youtube
00:40:32.520
as an audiobook for free i think i'm not sure about that okay interesting to me interesting to
00:40:39.120
me if you have a look at the Daily Mail what's the Daily Mail got the Mail online Scott Mills
00:40:44.400
is that the picture of the quote-unquote teenager is it I don't know okay it sparks a crisis in
00:40:52.680
the BBC a crisis has been sparked okay there was a story here a fair few Trump things um
00:41:02.460
10 problems that may trap trump in a nightmare scenario in iran marco rubio's dual roles leaves
00:41:10.440
trump quote in informed quote on harrowing iran decisions former national security advisor
00:41:16.260
charges but trump approval rebounds as he scrambles for peace deal in iran
00:41:21.580
as i understand it there's a there's a whole bunch of people in america tds sufferers which
1.00
00:41:28.440
hate the war and try and paint it every possible opportunity as terrible and evil and stupid but a
0.99
00:41:35.000
lot of americans are up for it a lot of americans like it are behind the president and stuff like
0.99
00:41:40.120
no iran is like an export of terror and it is better for the region and the world and america
0.71
00:41:46.280
if they're sort of taken out one way or another or completely degraded loads of americans loads
00:41:53.880
think that and say that who's to say they're wrong who's to say they're wrong i'm not going to
00:41:59.560
all right trump's approval rebounds a little bit okay scott mills and his one million pound
00:42:08.680
home don't care all right the express here's a little story fury at bbc for call to end
00:42:15.900
dog friendly spaces the bbc this is obviously the express reporting on a bbc report that said
00:42:23.640
end dog friendly spaces no no see that's the BBC that's auntie for you really subversive not that
00:42:33.180
long ago not many years ago when I was younger when I was a child when I was a teenager in my
00:42:37.360
20s the BBC was sort of it came across as essentially friendly essentially on your side
00:42:43.300
it wasn't it's always been lefty it's always been extremely left since inception since the 1920s
00:42:49.280
it's always been left but even when i was a kid it would come across as friendly and nice and on
00:42:54.660
your side and essentially patriotic it wasn't but it was still wearing a wolf's coat the sheep's
00:43:02.860
clothing like a good fabian it was always a wolf but wearing its sheep clothing pretending it was
00:43:08.720
on your side it just doesn't it's it's shed that that sheep's clothing isn't it now they come out
00:43:14.960
with something about some foreigner trying to tell you dogs are bad. No, no. Englishmen
0.98
00:43:27.560
and Brits, we love our dogs. Centuries and centuries of tradition of being great fans
00:43:36.600
of dogs. So no, don't tell us we can't have dog-friendly spaces. Dogs aren't welcome.
00:43:50.880
So don't tell us there's something wrong with dogs
00:44:27.280
That's Britain now, that's multicultural Britain
1.00
00:45:09.300
and his personal emails not his work fbi email but his personal email like a gmail account
00:45:15.140
got hacked by iranians and they released loads of pictures there was nothing all that spicy or
00:45:20.080
embarrassing i mean in and of itself it's slightly embarrassing that the fbi didn't have that all
00:45:24.060
that locked down but nonetheless they hacked into it and released loads of pictures i don't know if
00:45:28.360
there'll be any here of just like him on holiday there's nothing truly embarrassing like him in
00:45:34.340
suspenders or anything but just like pictures of him and his bird on holiday so not really a big
00:45:42.860
deal ultimately other than it's just like shouldn't the fbi have encrypted or somehow
00:45:48.360
somehow made sure his personal gmail account was safe but they didn't they didn't so all right
00:45:58.440
that's a story of mild interest this guy this black dude from Croydon was about to be reminded
00:46:05.920
in custody for being a drug dealer and he just fled the court he's still at large
00:46:17.000
talking about one of John Gotti's henchmen John Gotti
00:46:38.320
This prostitute tried to blackmail one of her Johns
1.00
00:46:44.920
Knocked on his door, saying, give me loads more money or I'll out you
0.99
00:47:00.540
One thing I want to hear on the New York Slimes
00:47:03.400
Israel passes law to hang Palestinians convicted of deadly attacks
00:47:17.660
That you're guilty of a very, very, very heinous crime
00:47:20.760
like murdering loads of little girls or something
0.75
00:47:32.980
I'm not interested in the bleeding heart liberal argument
00:47:43.520
alright shall we have a look at this day in history
00:47:49.080
what's going what happened throughout down through the centuries what happened of note on this day
00:47:54.600
march 31st all right in the year 1146 ad bernard of clairvaux preaches his famous sermon in a field
00:48:03.960
at vaselay urging the necessity of a second crusade louis the seventh and eleanor of aquitaine
00:48:09.880
are present and join the crusade so on uh sorry
00:48:22.560
lowseaters.com, consider joining for as little as £5 a month
00:48:25.360
Bronze Team Membership, I've got long-form content about the Second Crusade
00:48:29.520
and specifically one about Eleanor of Aquitaine.
00:48:32.280
I've only done like a biography one about a woman a couple of times.
00:50:13.380
But they did take loads more lands in the Levant
00:50:22.240
I've got long form content all about the life and career of Eleanor of Aquitaine
00:50:26.800
Fascinating stuff, big thing in European history really
1.00
00:51:07.200
Why did Ferdinand and Isabel feel the need to do that
00:51:20.780
English Parliament presents the humble petition and advice
00:51:29.200
After King Charles I, Charles Stewart had his head lopped off
00:51:35.140
A lot of people, the Puritans, the parliamentarians
00:51:40.860
we're like well what do we do now we do still need like a head of state don't we
00:51:44.860
we do still need a single personage to be at the top of things a king don't we still just need a
00:51:53.320
king though the way nearly all our bills and and legislation and uh the constitution as was
00:52:02.440
you know the or everything parliament does it's all it's all fixed in such a way that you sort
00:52:09.400
need a king still so a big chunk of them went to Oliver Cromwell and said will you be the king we
00:52:18.540
still need like the crown in parliament sort of thing and he scoffed and laughed at that he said
00:52:24.000
no you've you seem to have profoundly misunderstood what this whole these two civil wars we've had
00:52:30.740
you seem to profoundly misunderstood what all of that was about if you're asking me to be a king
00:53:19.680
it holds the record for the tallest man-made structure
00:53:32.460
It's kind of cool, I've been there a couple of times
00:53:38.760
If it's a nice summer's day and there's loads of tourists
00:53:47.820
Then you queue up again to get an elevator up to that bit
00:53:50.640
And queue up again to get an elevator to the top
00:53:54.520
Go on a day that's like off-season and overcast
00:54:02.460
It took me all afternoon to get to the top, honestly like three hours, four hours, something like that, good view from the top, probably not worth it, just go to that bit, that's good enough, anyway, alright, okay, the Eiffel Tower, on this day in 1920, British Parliament accepts the Government of Ireland Act, known as the Fourth Home Rule Bill, yeah we talked about that a few days ago, didn't we, it came up on this website,
00:54:34.740
Partitioning Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland
00:54:45.960
I said before it should have been 100 years before or more
00:55:59.240
I think wouldn't you have to, if you actually want to completely transmit radio for yourself,
00:56:07.160
don't you need to spend millions and millions of pounds on infrastructure
00:56:09.520
and jump through loads and loads of hoops before you're allowed to do it.
00:56:23.680
i know exactly what happened in 2016 with scott mills to make auntie fire him he wore a maga hat
00:56:31.820
and went everywhere demanding they make america great again all right did he was he a mega dude
00:56:36.580
surprised they surprised they let him work at all since then then because i believe he was picked to
00:56:43.540
do that radio slot only in like 2024 or something okay and the other one the other rumble rant from
00:56:50.740
tom rat again says not a doctor but thousands of doctors are denied spaces out of uni given to
00:56:58.700
foreign locums i don't mean by locums but given to foreigners most simply moved to australia for
00:57:05.420
better pay and training right yeah our dei has gone out of control yeah i'd rather give the spot
00:57:11.260
to some some young syrian person who wants to be a doctor rather than our own yeah i've heard all
00:57:18.840
about that yeah a lot of them go to australia stuff like that where they won't be completely
00:57:24.880
marginalized for the color of their skin and the country their nationality of origin
00:57:30.140
mad isn't it mad one more's come in one more rumble rant casa dwen says good luck recording
00:57:37.280

00:58:03.460
cool the super chat YouTube super chats in at number one do do do do do do do global church
00:58:11.780
history still at number one you say today in 1146 saint bernard preaches the second crusade
00:58:17.780
and that came in at like even before 8am saint bernard of clervo who was we was talking about
00:58:26.580
global church history knows their stuff but saint bernard of clervo saint bernard yeah
00:58:34.300
preaches the second crusade changed history the second crusade put history on a different
00:58:41.200
timeline if Bernard of Clairvaux hadn't called it that day in 1146 history would have been
00:58:49.940
different well there would have been eventually a second crusade anyway but it would have been
00:58:53.540
different the second crusade was a movement en masse en masse not just like a load of knights
00:59:03.300
like the third crusade but a giant movement of ordinary people and peasants taking the cross
00:59:09.960
and going out to the holy land a giant thing all right chris 281 says surely at this point it's
00:59:19.100
only shocking news when it turns out that someone at the bbc is not a wrongan yeah it's easier to
0.99
00:59:26.180
count the ones that aren't wrongans yeah yeah good point the cayman live says it's crazy how
00:59:34.320
they all care about drivers when the evil fuel companies put up the price but they're happy to
00:59:41.340
keep rolling out ulez and other taxes right yeah yeah i think you put it they don't care i don't
00:59:46.940
care i might pretend they will for a little bit about drivers or whatever pretend they will for
00:59:52.980
briefly for for you know but i don't of course they don't they see the people these leftists
01:00:11.840
Funny how you expect to both not have a sane energy policy
01:00:58.160
So they slightly change how the figure is calculated
01:02:23.900
bekuana land is made a uk protectorate i'm not sure where that is i should know shouldn't i
01:02:37.020
i'm not sure about that interesting though interesting okay you've out history bro'd me
