My producer, Little Harry, how are you this morning, good sir?
00:00:30.900
And you're the glorious band, the chosen few, my band of brothers.
00:00:38.720
Watching the Bo Show live, getting involved in the chat and the poll.
00:00:58.060
Should we just stop fannying about and get on with the show?
00:01:03.260
What's the legacy corporate mainstream media rattling on about this morning?
00:01:07.980
That cabal of evil Fleet Street editors trying to tell you what is or isn't important.
00:01:18.180
What slop are they serving up for us this morning?
00:01:19.880
Right, we've got rival Circle Starmer and bid to reopen Hormuz,
00:02:17.140
Pooch obviously is just a German word for sort of a
00:02:23.320
Open letter will demand PM's resignation date
0.78
00:02:52.560
that it's emerging that it's it the main front runners are Angela Rayner Burnham and Streeting
00:02:59.580
the other names aren't really getting mentioned all that much at this stage you know like
00:03:03.680
Shabana Mahmood or Yvette Cooper or Lammy himself but Burnham isn't an MP Rayner's still Angela
00:03:12.960
the Fridge Rayner Big Bird is still under stealing under investigation by his majesty's revenue and
00:03:18.020
customs and west streeting is a wet lettuce who's totally compromised by the mandelson thing and
00:03:23.900
and he's going to lose his seat in the next year election west streeting will definitely lose his
00:03:28.440
seat his majority is really small it's like i can't remember exact number but it's 600 five or 600 or
00:03:34.320
something in like ilford or barking a massively foreign enclave ilford and barking it's like
00:03:43.520
you've touched down in lahore it really is so he's going to lose his seat next time that'd be
00:03:49.800
funny if streeting won this leadership thing became prime minister and at the election lost
00:03:56.660
his seat i don't think that's ever happened before i think that has never ever happened before sitting
00:04:00.940
prime minister losing their seat rishi came close didn't he well not that close but
00:04:38.900
all right there's some who is that that's not oh that is nicole kidman gosh she must have some
0.99
00:04:46.900
work done she looks different nicole kidman at that met gala thing and some silly dress okay
00:04:53.140
iran shatters gulf ceasefire over u.s after u.s offers straight support okay so let's talk about
00:05:00.860
Iran a bit then, another sort of big story of the day. Yesterday was a day of, well the
00:05:08.060
last 36 hours even more, was a period of just claim and counterclaim. Iran's saying loads
0.55
00:05:16.600
of things, Americans saying that's just not true, and then America's saying things that
00:05:19.940
they've done, and Iran's saying that's not true. Both sides are doing that. First of
00:05:28.460
i suppose where to pick up the story it's a never-ending cycle of events and data points
00:05:34.160
isn't it but first of all iran said they had they had struck a u.s warship outside of america's
00:05:42.260
blockade and then america said well centcom the u.s navy the pentagon just said well that's just
00:05:52.160
not true and over the coming day or so iran basically started saying oh well you know maybe
00:05:58.140
okay maybe not maybe we fired near it um so there you go there's that
00:06:04.340
just a claim and counterclaim and then america says it was uh ushering said it sent some ships
00:06:12.180
warships through the straits of hormuz and you might say no they didn't that hasn't happened
00:06:16.720
it just simply hasn't happened and then america said they escorted one or two you know non-military
00:06:23.040
ships like a south korean one or a british one or something through the straits of hormuz and
00:07:10.040
Because all their big ships are at the bottom of the sea
00:07:14.260
And usually when they send out these little swarms
00:07:25.300
Apparently they usually send out something in the order of 20 to 40 of them
00:07:29.580
To sort of swarm around a big tanker or whatever
00:07:35.680
And those were promptly blown to bits by the United States
00:07:46.260
Well, Higgsif and Trump have said all of it before
00:07:53.000
they said all of iran's navy is gone they don't have a navy anymore they said well not entirely
00:08:01.160
i mean mostly any big you know like cruisers or destroyers and things that sort of thing
00:08:07.240
they're all gone i think but they still got these small boats but even those
00:08:12.680
there's not very many of them left where they used to deploy 20 to 40 of them on a regular basis now
00:08:19.560
it's only like half a dozen or so and they get immediately destroyed so
00:08:28.840
is iran's ability to even send little those little boats fast fast boats um is even that
00:08:38.920
very very very near the end of being able to even do that we don't know but yeah basically just
00:08:59.820
America and Israel haven't started doing that again
00:09:11.800
And return fire from the Americans is happening
00:09:22.100
In fact, let's talk about it in a little bit more detail
00:09:29.800
Trump threatens to quote, and this is a true social media quote
0.88
00:10:08.320
but about the same i mean you can see there on the graph the volatility even in one day
00:10:14.880
the volatility of it went down back up to about where it was it is volatile like i think it
00:10:21.560
fluctuated something in the order of two percent in normal times completely normal times fluctuation
00:10:26.720
of two percent is quite a lot right now during this whole thing half the course isn't it
00:10:34.120
I'll tell you who will be making a killing out of all of this.
00:10:46.780
So I think I've said a number of times, haven't I?
00:10:52.780
It's like saying, I used to work for a football team or a Formula One team.
00:11:00.640
But yeah, they sit at a trading desk all day long.
00:11:04.520
and bet either way on it going up or down you can shoot it you know essentially betting on
00:11:09.080
the price going down of course you can bet on it going up and so they just sit there all day
00:11:14.680
they know what they're looking at it's their job just keep getting in and out of the market
00:11:19.080
just constantly all day long and the volatility is the that's what makes money so that people
00:11:27.080
like that will be loving it absolutely loving it unless they make the wrong call of course
00:11:34.900
yeah so the price of oil crude on the open market
00:11:41.880
still higher isn't it it's it's higher but once again not astronomically higher but then does that
00:11:49.820
really reflect what you pay at the pump not really huh not really still you know said it before i'll
00:12:00.520
say it again if you'd asked me before this whole thing started the united states and israel been
00:12:05.360
at war with iran for three months straits of hormuz completely closed for three months essentially
00:12:10.160
on and off um would the price of oil still be as low as that even though it's higher would it be
00:12:16.720
as low as that i would have said no all right should we move on how else have we got the eye
00:12:22.860
paper, pardon me, Sir David, David Attenborough, National Treasurer, he's 100, it's just about
00:12:33.380
to be 100, or is he just past 100, anyway, people throw around the term like National
00:12:38.480
Treasurer a bit too much don't they, a bit too easily, a bit flippant, like Wayne Rooney
00:12:41.900
is a National Treasurer, Paloma Faith is a National Treasurer, David Attenborough though,
00:13:02.000
In peril as tensions flare over Straits of Hormuz
00:13:23.380
Are you ready for all the images of Nigel laughing hysterically?
00:13:30.520
Perhaps with a cigarette on the go in the other hand.
00:13:45.400
Starmer's political future hanging in the balance
00:13:51.020
with Labour on course for devastating losses to reform and Greens
00:13:59.760
look like being an absolute bloodbath for an incredibly unpopular Prime Minister
00:14:03.860
leading an incredibly unpopular government.
0.87
00:14:14.640
PM's main leadership rivals, Burnham, Rayner and Streeting,
00:14:17.920
face hurdles if they were to launch a challenge there is a widespread speculation that they
00:14:23.440
remain on maneuvers that's the thing that as they're saying i see more people using that
00:14:28.720
turn of phrase you know plotting i think he details is on maneuvers some reason that they're
00:14:37.920
liking that turn of phrase at the moment all sorts of machinations behind the scenes on maneuvers
00:14:47.600
but middle east crisis and fears of spooking the bond markets uh may offer stay of execution for
00:14:53.840
keir starmer's career shaky isn't it it's uh one of those things uh well it's a classic thing in
00:15:01.200
history isn't it that you can't change your leader now you can't get rid of me now because we're in
00:15:06.880
the middle of a war you don't change horses midstream okay that's a classic thing we're not
00:15:15.360
really at war though are we like giving money to ukraine is not really at war trying and failing
00:15:23.040
to send one frigate to cyprus isn't really at war is it so it's a so it's a shaky argument
00:15:31.360
and then oh you can't you can't change because it might it might spook the bond markets
00:15:37.040
i mean a little bit i'm not saying it wouldn't but is that a good enough reason to stay with a
00:15:42.560
failing government and a leader that is the least popular prime minister of all time is that a good
00:15:47.840
enough reason that the bond markets might move a little bit off the back of it you know it's sort
00:15:54.400
of it's the bottom of the barrel isn't it from from starmer and starmer's people that that's
00:15:58.640
what they're saying uh we're in the middle of a middle east crisis i mean we're not aren't we
00:16:04.160
the bond markets like you care about the bond markets wouldn't you have cut spending if you
00:16:09.040
cared about the bond markets but now the bond markets matter right okay
00:16:19.760
scraping the bottom of that barrel all right the metro
00:16:29.680
metro absolute slot anyone who's only listening to this the banner is some hysterically laughing
0.97
00:16:38.460
A woman from North London, okay don't care
1.00
00:16:44.100
Okay this is one of the other stories, he was in
0.62
00:16:58.100
They were all there, all the big players were there
00:17:08.500
They're a little bit dry, a little bit boring, but basically, in a nutshell,
00:17:12.680
it's about drawing us Britain closer and closer to the EU,
00:17:18.280
undermining and unravelling Brexit in all but name, effectively.
00:17:24.360
In the dying throes of his tenure as Prime Minister, he's decided to do that.
00:18:27.740
By all the other European countries that are in the EU
00:18:34.020
and the eu because it's the way the eu is because it's a type of
00:18:40.180
it's like a type of they're gangsters as far as i'm concerned
0.74
00:18:45.140
it's an extortion racket on some level it's a disgusting thing um in order to let switzerland
00:18:52.180
trade with them of course trade is a two-way thing switzerland has to pay the eu hundreds of
00:19:00.260
millions of pounds a year just to just to be able to trade with them in any way you know pay to play
00:19:08.900
just because the eu is sort of the more powerful partner in that binary between switzerland
00:19:15.540
switzerland and the eu obviously the eu is a much bigger more powerful richer
00:19:20.020
populist thing in every way so so so they've got the dominance they're like the chip leader
00:19:24.820
right the the the dominant party in that so if they wanted to and they do they could just press
00:19:32.300
their thumb on switzerland's forehead and go no you've got to pay us an extortionate amount of
00:19:37.180
money to even begin to trade with us we could handle not importing any swiss swiss stuff we
00:19:43.780
could we could absorb absorb that it would ruin you if you couldn't sell to us though so we're
00:19:50.180
extort you nice isn't it that's nice how is that not gangsterism effectively
00:19:58.100
anyway they're doing the same to us i want to do the same to us
00:20:02.020
it's not a done deal it's not like it's not like a formally legally binding done deal or anything
00:20:07.460
but starmer weak as he is the weakest man ever to be prime minister is he
00:20:13.540
they want to make us pay a billion pounds a year that's a year not just a one-off payment no
00:20:18.100
one billion pounds every single year year on year just to begin to trade with them
00:20:24.260
starmer goes the starmer bot goes over there okay yes we'll pay that fine sure whatever you say
0.99
00:20:42.980
lovely cup of tea i had a sugar in it this morning i don't usually
00:20:48.100
99% of the time, my tea is sugarless, fancy one this morning, there you go, for your information,
00:20:57.160
The Guardian, oh, The Guardian, sorry, I know some people hate me doing that, that joke,
00:21:10.280
i think it's funny all right the guardian um look there's what on the banner nobody's going out
00:21:19.200
what just happened to britain's nightlife well yeah yeah it's been destroyed in a part of swindon
00:21:24.340
near where we live just one little example of irl there used to be loads and loads of bars and a
00:21:31.100
few nightclubs they're all closed there's like one weatherspoons left one and that whole area
00:21:35.640
that whole sort of district of the town a lot of towns have it don't they like the the party
00:21:39.200
district like the going out bit of town tons and tons of bars all in a row a few nightclubs
00:21:44.240
all right near each other they're all closed and boarded up and have been for years now
00:21:50.720
yeah because the tories and now labor don't like that don't want that
0.91
00:21:58.080
muslims don't like that don't want that don't like drinking and revelry and having fun so
1.00
00:22:03.120
the government is largely in hock to them they don't care about businesses do they
1.00
00:22:36.420
they say you're allowed to watch that's what they want isn't it
00:22:43.700
all right the guardian trump's bid to reopen hormuz pushes region back to the
00:22:54.900
yeah another counterclaim so where you're not the way the oh
00:22:59.380
that's gross sorry about that it's gonna happen
00:24:15.020
It's already very, very chaotic government, isn't it?
00:24:59.860
so we can't do anything about it no i don't think so all right the financial times
00:25:06.080
putin's shown his face he wasn't hasn't been seen for a little bit you know it's a classic
00:25:13.100
they always do it with putin for some reason like the the anti-russian lobby all over the west if
00:25:20.180
people haven't seen putin for a while they start saying he's terribly ill he's probably dead he
00:25:44.900
I mean, okay, so Putin surfaces after laying low.
00:25:54.160
Must be maybe four years ago or three, four years ago.
00:25:57.260
relatively soon into the war with ukraine but a fair few news cycles in a row like a week or two
00:26:05.840
even there was semi-constant talk of putin dying like he's dying he's got some terrible disease
00:26:13.040
cancer whatever he's on dialysis he's gonna die any moment just just pure lies
00:27:17.120
they're really quite repressive i shan't shed a tear for the plight of the arab emirates
00:27:28.140
ceasefire comes under strain tehran threatens american warships uh response to new trump
00:27:34.880
plan okay all right i'm about peter teal and ai i don't really care special special report
00:27:43.280
The nightmare of trying to save our son Jack from ISIS
00:27:55.720
You know, he went to a normal school in Britain
00:28:13.040
contacted his mum and dad who were just like completely really they seemed completely normal
00:28:17.400
feel really sorry for him actually they seemed like completely normal like suburban mum and dad
00:28:23.520
obviously they i don't know if it's really their fault or not why he went mad
00:28:29.020
they seemed completely innocent at one point he was messaging them this years back during the isis
00:28:34.700
years i need some money i really need a little bit of money just please please please help in
00:28:39.280
any way and they sent him a little bit of money i don't know a few hundred maybe very very low
00:28:43.700
thousands not a fantastic amount of sum of money but he was like saying he's you know he's starving
00:28:48.700
or whatever he sent me a bit of money and they did that's illegal i mean he was in a in a war
00:28:54.200
zone fighting for an enemy force so that's illegal they got prosecuted for that they're just they've
00:29:00.380
just got empathy for their son uh it must be horrible it must be really horrible to have a
00:29:09.260
kid that you tried to raise well you did everything you could to try and raise them properly
00:29:15.500
when they get into adulthood when you can't control them anymore you know they're in their
00:29:20.140
early 20s and if they decide they absolutely want to do something like go and smoke crack
00:29:25.500
endlessly and deal crack or something like that or go and fight for isis or something
00:29:33.100
Maybe they did raise him to be a wrong one, I don't know
00:29:46.520
Top pollster, Starmer will not lead Labour into general election
00:29:52.320
Anyone who's foreign might not know John Curtis
00:29:53.640
Every time there's an election, a general election
00:29:57.900
They'll probably wheel him out for this local election
00:30:00.100
he's like a typical professor egghead dude he's all right i quite like him but he's like a like
00:30:07.120
a cliche professor egghead and his analysis is usually very very good i'm not having a poppy
00:30:14.480
that's to say i quite like him um they wheel him out and he says makes his little predictions
00:30:20.880
they're usually quite accurate and he basically he knows what he's talking about to be fair he
00:30:25.640
he does know what he's talking about and he says john curtis says it is a matter of when not if
00:30:30.920
the prime minister will be replaced as party prepares for damaging local elections results
00:30:38.760
i would say well over half the time maybe most of the time maybe as high as 80 or 90 percent of the
00:30:44.840
time you can take what john curtis says to the bank okay the daily telegraph inside
00:30:55.560
the sad broken world of britney spears don't care uh oh well just quickly very quickly say
00:31:02.200
she has been charged with dui a minor dui there's various grades of how bad a dui can be
00:31:11.320
she's been charged with a minor one okay someone at that met gala don't care about that
00:31:18.120
yes look there you go two pubs close every day this year after tax grab by reeves well done
00:31:25.140
thanks for that and yet and yet they'll come out i have the brass neck to come out on like
00:31:31.620
laura kunigsberg on a sunday morning or something and say we really care about the high street
00:31:35.580
as a party as a government we care loads about small businesses and the high street
00:31:40.940
do you though you obviously don't you obviously don't because your policies lead to
00:31:48.780
hospitality stuff restaurants pubs etc etc just closing down on a on a on a nationwide scale
00:31:57.660
on a visible scale go to any high street any high street in the whole country most of it's
00:32:03.780
if it's not a some sort of chicken shop a vape shop a turkish barbers a nail shop if it's not
0.53
00:32:11.940
a front for organized crime it's boarded up repeated over you got the you got you got
00:33:01.740
I think the original incident of her disappearance
00:33:26.240
And it's the same guy that's been under suspicion
00:33:53.660
followed the story on and off over the years and i've also watched loads of documentaries about it
00:33:59.160
what's that geordie dude oh you probably won't know how about this i can't remember the guy's
00:34:02.900
name some geordie dude who's people in the chat might even say it did a really long series all
00:34:08.280
about it on youtube and i think he even got i think he might have got in trouble with the police
00:34:11.600
for sort of um like libel or something is a is a good uh the chat doesn't seem to be saying it
00:34:20.740
immediately i don't always have the chat in front of me but i have today um anyway anyway i've
00:34:26.820
watched loads and loads of documentaries about it loads of different angles about it as many
00:34:31.980
as you can imagine and anyway anyway the police obviously think they've got a strong enough case
00:34:40.080
to convict him or the cps have but we can't really be extradited from germany because we're not in
00:34:47.480
the eu now when we used to be in the eu that sort of thing was relatively straightforward and now
00:34:52.540
we have to actually strike some sort of deal with germany before we can do that but that's not

Right, yeah, Labour, the strategist, I suppose,
00:36:10.940
at Labour don't want Starmer himself going door to door occasionally very very senior politicians
00:36:15.880
the Prime Minister even will do that usually more for a general election and it's only really a
00:36:20.880
photo op right it's not about that extra leaflet getting delivered is it but they've decided they
00:36:25.720
don't want that because he's so unpopular it's just not good optics for them it's better just
00:36:31.060
to keep him away here's a tiny little story it's only a tiny little story here little last thing
00:36:39.540

00:38:40.540
and the police, the white police chief, completely took the side of Islamic protesters,
00:38:48.560
The Islamic people, many Islamic people in Birmingham
00:38:54.580
Just simply didn't want an Israeli team there at all
1.00
00:38:58.340
Certainly didn't want their fans to be able to go in the stadium
0.98
00:39:02.880
The sort of white police chief, the Labour police chief commissioner
0.87
00:39:09.900
Well now the story on the front page of the Express, it's a good paper

probably just been speaking quite speaking out all the time but you've
00:40:44.740
decided to amplify her voice all right dorothy's speaking out for the first
00:40:53.700
to evict her friends from the place they feel safe
00:40:56.900

00:41:00.740
and dorothy is urging all of us to do the same stop him
0.54
00:41:06.500
So, as far as the Mirror is concerned, even Nigel Farage is like some evil Nazi or something
0.99
00:41:18.980
If anything, Reform and Nigel Farage are super, super pro-old people, retired people, pensioners.
00:41:27.640
Their policy platform seems to bend over backwards on their behalf, if anything, isn't it?
00:42:00.280
You know, I, and here at Those Tities, we sling lots of muck at Nigel and Reform
00:42:08.580
But only, or I can only speak myself, but only when I feel it's necessary
00:42:13.120
If he's being completely slandered and maligned and lied about, I'll point that out as well

Olukemi Badenok, the Nigerian woman, has made an intervention.
00:43:52.200
didn't you guys have 14 years to do that sort of thing and wasn't Olukemi Badenoch in government
00:44:01.380
as well during that time they didn't do any such thing so why should we believe you now
00:44:07.480
here we go Olukemi says Britain needs zero tolerance on crimes that make our lives a
00:44:13.460
misery it'd be nice just don't believe you'd do anything of the sort I don't believe you

A few speedboats with a few Royal Marine Commandos on it

A few people try and stand for Keir Starmer and the Labour government
00:46:36.940
Saying he's deporting way more than the Tories did
00:46:39.460
Yeah, and it's still an absolute drop in the ocean
00:46:56.640
Where what he did was slightly higher than what the Tories did or something
00:47:02.120
It's still allowing us, in essence, to be invaded

00:51:49.160
I've talked a bit about Kublai Khan before, haven't I?
00:51:55.420
The most interesting Mongol ruler, I would say
1.00
00:52:55.820
Consider signing up for as little as £5 a month
00:53:14.160
But there was at least one big one in the 1870s
00:53:22.580
and so yeah there's a bit of long-form content where me and dan sort of go through a lot of
00:53:29.100
them like what actually happened what caused that why did that you know why did that happen
00:53:32.320
what was the consequences of it etc etc where any lessons learned so that's there if you're
00:53:39.100
interested in that on this day 1941 ethiopian emperor highly selassie returns triumphantly

00:53:56.980
One of the people running this website is a Rasta
0.98
00:54:04.500
I haven't talked about him before because he's come up before, haven't I?
0.90
00:54:17.300
Because he would almost certainly be imprisoned, maybe even killed
00:54:32.920
Lived to be a very old man into his 80s I believe
00:54:42.840
Murdered him and buried him under a toilet

General Westmoreland lands at Da Nang, isn't it?
00:55:45.420
The classical world, the classical mega training world
00:55:55.900
That's why I've got quite a lot of content about American history
00:55:58.080
Anyway, when I was young, I was fascinated by Vietnam
00:56:05.040
So yeah, that would be Westmoreland landing at Da Nang
00:56:08.880
They put like garlands round his neck and stuff
00:56:15.420

all the detail you could want really it's there it's there yeah anti-ayatollah iranian terrorists
00:56:43.820
Stormed the Iranian embassy in Kensington in London
00:57:13.560
It's all there, it's all there behind the paywall

The 5th Ecumenical Council met under St Justinian and Theodora
00:59:00.940
That would be the Emperor Justinian I of the Byzantine Empire
00:59:41.340
I've got another couple of bits of content talking about Justinian.
00:59:44.580
There was one where I compared the lives and reigns and careers
00:59:50.060
of Justinian I and Justinian II, two very, very different men.
00:59:56.700
Look, that's the thing you get when you get 100,000 subscribers on your channel.
01:00:04.700
22 if you consider going over there and subscribing to it so that's fake harry's put that there
01:00:09.580
that's not real just be clear oh if history bro had a hundred thousand subs that'd be nice um
01:00:21.100
so yeah justinian sorry global churches you just did it absolutely fascinating because you say
01:00:26.540
briefly reuniting christian yeah because the western roman empire by the sixth century mid
01:00:31.660
6th century had been conquered a couple of times over by various barbaric peoples justinian in the
01:00:38.460
east the eastern roman empire the byzantine empire he decided he was going to reconquer the west
01:00:44.860
for the the romans and and christendom which he briefly did he sent belisarius his generalism over
01:00:52.060
and they briefly did do that reuniting christendom because of course there's one main church at that
01:00:57.260
point the the great schism between eastern orthodoxy and roman catholicism is not till
01:01:02.780
the 11th century is it that's not till what like the 1050s is it this 11th century that obviously
01:01:08.140
hadn't happened yet so justinian reuniting the empire and christendom briefly okay cool
01:01:18.460
gwff says what's your thoughts and feelings on the following quote and it's a horace walpole
01:01:26.540
quote that says what is called chance is the instrument of providence
01:01:32.220
that's a great quote is it very pithy very succinct
01:01:49.180
yeah cool it's a good one for gian barber morning sir you say good morning bow
01:01:53.820
good day ahead question mark i've got to record an epox then there'll be some state of politics
01:02:00.820
stuff after in the evening i've got to record but it should be an all right day
01:02:04.760
yeah should be good uh you say i just found out that one of the characters
01:02:11.080
in in sports commentary died today john sterling yankees baseball how can they unpick brexit
01:02:19.940
it without another referendum so first of all i'll say i don't know john sterling i don't know
01:02:24.840
john sterling i'm afraid i'm sorry i'm not that into baseball i do quite like baseball follow it
01:02:30.520
very very tangentially very tangentially i'm a boston red sox fan when i was a little kid
01:02:38.600
someone bought me because my initial is b when i was a kid someone bought me a boston red sox
01:02:44.100
baseball cap with the big B on it that's it that's enough for me to pick a baseball team
01:02:50.320
the Red Sox when they won the World Series a while ago 10 years ago was it 15 years ago
01:02:56.280
that was cool I watched the whole World Series I don't know John Sterling sorry and then the
01:03:02.220
other thing you say how can they unpick Brexit without another referendum well I mean yeah
01:03:07.700
it's a good question and it's we talked before didn't we I don't know if you saw that morning
01:03:12.500
that beau show where they talked about the so-called henry the eighth laws where you can
01:03:17.780
get things through parliament if you're sneaky and shameless enough you can kind of get things
01:03:21.940
through parliament where they can unpick brexit to an extent they can sort of largely unpick it
01:03:29.640
they can unpick it in all but name yeah to formally completely go back on it to formally
01:03:34.880
join the eu again i'm sure i would have thought they would need another referendum they certainly
0.92
01:03:41.060
need another act of parliament but what they can just do is like sneaky rats like snakes
01:03:46.260
they can just largely undo it well hopefully starmer won't be the prime minister for him
01:03:56.040
very much longer whether whoever comes after him is even more brexit hating who knows harry can
01:04:02.920
you bring up the youtube super chats on my screen for me please you make it so engage all right oh
01:04:09.520
there's only a few today there's only four today oh did we do the poll i didn't mention the poll
01:04:14.080
can you make the poll come up now should i just quickly do the poll it's a bit late isn't it you
01:04:19.460
should do it in the middle of the show don't i bet all right we got we said will trump finally
01:04:24.420
blow iran off the face of the earth because that was the thing he said on true social again just
0.85
01:04:28.900
the other day if you don't do what we want open the straits of hormones etc i'll blow you off the
0.99
01:04:35.400
face of the earth we asked you and i said to harry don't give them a maybe make it a yes or no
01:04:40.640
just a yes or no so what have you put okay 22 percent of you say yes trump will blow iran off
01:04:49.400
the face of the earth 78 of you say no i mean if i was going to take that i would have clicked on
01:04:56.120
know, he might know, but I do. So, again, me and my audience, of the same mind, 78% say
01:05:12.860
no, yeah. The classic, classic boy who cried wolf thing, it's not, I'm not saying he won't
01:05:19.840
do it at some point, but if you keep threatening the same thing over and over again and then
01:05:24.260
not doing it putting lines in the sand and then not doing it like what do you expect people to
01:05:30.160
think all right let's have a look at the youtube super chats all right bill wilson 1225 says
01:05:41.520
i'm starting to think charles charles the first had a point
01:06:15.660
yeah it's part of it it's an element of it um the next one for a decent amount of money
01:06:22.460
from Seth Child Sanders says do you guys have have rank choice voting nationwide
01:06:32.060
just curious if you're worried about sinking Farage with Rupert Lowe
01:06:42.840
night from wyoming keep up the good work okay so you're from wyoming and it's night time there so
01:06:50.360
cool interesting to know thanks for the thanks for the money as well appreciate that really we
01:06:55.300
really appreciate that um rank voting like so you've got a first second and third choice sort
01:07:01.240
of thing and that that that whole paradigm yeah we don't have that do we we just don't have that
01:07:05.300
in Britain um sorry yeah I don't know what to tell you we don't we don't have that um
01:07:12.900
what you're saying you're worried about sinking Farage with Rupert Lowe even if he's the preferable
01:07:19.020
choice yeah oh yeah what can I say we don't have it how things might be different if we did
01:07:27.580
it seems to be on some level i i like it and appreciate it and see the benefits of it
01:07:35.580
on another level some other level it seems sort of needlessly complicated
01:07:40.000
have one man one vote it's a classic thing is that is that really working for us at the moment
01:07:47.420
perhaps not you could argue not okay all right the penultimate one today is from pants hayder
01:08:25.680
and finally we've got Phil Marshall Dawn Browning
01:08:29.120
just sends 10 Aussie bucks and doesn't say anything
01:08:44.140
