00:01:12.060 every morning when breakfast with beau comes on locally known as the beau show

00:01:17.020 beau's breakfast club hashtag the real bbc lotus eaters breakfast club hashtag the real lbc

00:01:22.620 don't you forget about me as nearly always i'm joined by my producer little harry harry this

00:01:30.040 morning good sir morning yeah we're good good great the disembodied voice of the all-powerful

00:01:36.120 all-knowing omnipresent omniscient producer there we are in his hands what would little

00:01:41.240 harry do that's what we must ask ourselves all right is that enough fuffing about i think that's

00:01:47.020 more than a fanning about for one morning should just get straight into it it shows about what

00:01:52.600 is in the legacy corporate lamestream media on any given day, particularly what's on

00:01:56.100 Fleet Street, what's on the front pages. Because we need to know ignorance isn't bliss. They

00:02:02.300 would rather we don't know, wouldn't they? An old philosophical question, is it better

00:02:09.100 to be ignorant, slightly more happy, or to know the truth? Anyone in their right mind

00:02:17.600 comes to the conclusion that it's best to know the truth.

00:02:20.600 all right what have we got is still was still tory party conference so we've got badenox britannia dome

00:02:29.880 like iron dome

00:02:33.240 and the king our current king king charles the third tells andrew his own little brother

00:02:39.000 i won't fund his court fight we'll get into it we'll get into it all right then first of all the

00:02:45.400 eye paper um what the science says after russian lab worker dies of suspected plagues we talk about

00:02:53.560 that a little bit real quick i think that's what our poll is about i think so um yeah the story if

00:02:59.320 you haven't heard about this story uh there's a lab it's up in siberia it's out in deepest darkest

00:03:06.600 siberia i don't know if it's deepest darkest siberia but anyway how in siberia the extreme

00:03:12.360 uh east of russia and there's a lab there that deals with various things sound familiar

00:03:19.480 sound familiar whether it's a lab that actually deals with you know sort of

00:03:24.920 biological weapons grade biological weapons not sure we don't know but nonetheless it still does

00:03:33.320 research into various diseases including plague the pneumonic plague because there's two different

00:03:39.000 types of plague aren't there bubonic and pneumonic they're both deadly if you don't get it sorted out

00:03:46.280 the bubonic plague was the what was the black death one but down through the centuries there've

00:03:51.560 been pandemics of both it's like it's not like bubonic plague is terribly deadly and pneumonic

00:03:59.320 plague isn't too bad no they're both bad they're both bad pneumonic plague obviously like pneumonia

00:04:05.240 lungs your lungs these days if you get if you catch it early just a dose of antibiotics should

00:04:10.440 sort you out but if you don't have that it could be really bad if your body doesn't fight it off

00:04:16.200 anyway anyway this one person a woman a young woman i believe she's in her late 20s anyway

00:04:21.080 this one woman who works there died of it well the russian authorities have only said it was of

00:04:28.600 pneumonia related you know complications type thing that's what they've said but people in

00:04:33.880 and they were like no it was plague it was pneumonic plague

00:04:38.360 so only one woman has died of it but the hospital i guess the hospital in that region

00:04:44.600 one hospital has been quarantined uh what else i saw one other data point there was like 200

00:04:50.680 people are being kept under close observation for it so okay the plague the plague is one of those

00:04:59.880 diseases that um has been weaponized over the years they have deliberately made worse strains of it so

00:05:11.800 it's a bit worrying but um seems to be contained apparently if if you believe it at all some

00:05:19.560 people might say oh this is just more russian scaremongering and it's all nonsense but anyway

00:05:24.840 there we go that's the story i have always said when i've talked about

00:05:28.280 covid if anyone watches the bow show or lotus eaters or my stuff or whatever

00:05:34.040 you will know my position on covid i thought that was all the strength of a

00:05:38.760 lie it was just the flu basically no worse than

00:05:41.960 the flu which is of course deadly if you're old and infirmed or you've

00:05:46.120 already got all sorts of other health issues it could totally

00:05:48.920 kill you but nonetheless still the flu effectively

00:05:54.840 and so putting us all under house arrest for two years changing the whole economy so that 0.98

00:06:01.640 they actually do quantitative easing crazy crazy nonsense making us wear those masks and locking us

00:06:07.080 down a horrible horrible crazy terrible overreach of government i think it was largely an exercise

00:06:16.520 in control to see what the people would do they tried to exercise a massive degree of control over

00:06:23.720 every single year thousands tens of thousands of old people die of the flu which is one of those

00:06:31.500 things that as i say if you're already old and infirmed it'll be what finally kills you there's

00:06:37.600 loads of diseases like everything from cancer to aids the cancer of the aids doesn't necessarily

00:06:42.940 kill you it just lowers your immune system so bad that something like the flu does kill you

00:06:47.040 okay all right so that happens every single year without fail that's just the world we live in 0.83

00:06:52.360 They weaponised that as an exercise in locking us down

00:06:56.640 That's what I thought all that was

00:06:58.120 However, and I never took the jab

00:07:00.480 I would never take that jab

00:07:01.560 Ugh, I'm a pureblood

00:07:03.680 I'm not putting that in me

00:07:05.240 What was that?

00:07:06.820 What was that jab?

00:07:08.380 Because it wasn't a vaccine for COVID, was it?

00:07:11.380 So what was it?

00:07:13.460 Well, I never took any

00:07:14.660 Even if guys came to the door

00:07:19.560 I would resist

00:07:20.600 Nana Rakuna was advocating for that on GB News

00:07:25.740 Anyone remember that?

00:07:26.980 Yeah, she was saying we should go door to door

00:07:28.280 And force people against their will to take this jab 0.95

00:07:31.140 Crazy lady 0.80

00:07:34.060 And they seem to have memory hold that

00:07:37.100 It's not that easy to find that clip

00:07:38.560 Of her saying that on GB News anymore

00:07:40.320 Memory hold that one

00:07:41.380 Okay, anyway

00:07:43.140 But I have always

00:07:44.120 So that's my position on COVID 0.96

00:07:45.180 A terrible travesty, a ridiculous thing 0.98

00:07:48.140 Sickening really 0.80

00:07:49.920 but I have always said as well on top of that if there were a real outbreak I think I nearly

00:07:56.120 always use the example of Ebola like say there was a new strain of Ebola that was like

00:08:01.540 could be transmitted through the air because Ebola as we know it right now isn't transmitted

00:08:08.600 like that if there was an outbreak of that then I would probably be in favour of relatively

00:08:19.120 extreme measures because one it's in it's crazily deadly orders of magnitude more deadly than the

00:08:27.360 flu and the death dying of ebola is truly truly hellacious so i said before i said if there were

00:08:36.680 a situation where something like that happened well then maybe we have to relook at it thing

00:08:43.360 with the plague is the plague oh my god it's somewhere in between isn't it because as I say

00:08:51.420 normal antibiotics should sort you out but what if millions of people around the world got it

00:08:56.700 and there just simply wasn't enough antibiotics and then millions of people completely healthy

00:09:01.540 otherwise completely healthy people including children and everything start dying of it in

00:09:06.420 their droves, like the Black Death of 1348-49. Or those are the years when it hit Britain, 0.76

00:09:15.420 it hit Europe earlier than that. But okay, so the plague, great. There's a question

00:09:22.840 about the plague now. If I found myself hegemon of the whole world, not just Bo's Britain,

00:09:30.800 world if I found myself master of the globe I would I would I would shut down and end basically 0.98

00:09:38.680 all biological weapons testing and chemical weapons testing or any country that's got a

00:09:46.140 program with biological or chemical weapons just close it just close all of that end all of that

00:09:51.880 there's no there's no upside to it there's just no upside to it I don't see again it's

00:10:00.020 born out of the cold war times

00:10:01.700 it's not

00:10:05.700 why are there labs with weapons

00:10:08.200 grade

00:10:08.800 plague or whatever

00:10:11.680 alright

00:10:15.060 ok so alright the main story

00:10:18.260 today the main story

00:10:19.800 is badenok

00:10:21.520 the Nigerian anchor baby 0.97

00:10:24.380 the Nigerian woman

00:10:26.980 all her ancestors are Nigerian 1.00

00:10:28.860 promises 1.00

00:10:29.620 Britannia Dome

00:10:31.840 To protect the UK from missile attack

00:10:34.040 Missile and drone attack

00:10:35.220 Where's she going to get the money for that from?

00:10:38.040 Doesn't matter, I've said it a number of times

00:10:39.680 Say it loads more

00:10:40.440 When you're in opposition

00:10:42.520 You can sort of say whatever you want

00:10:45.220 I've seen quite a few different opposition leaders

00:10:47.100 Say that over the years

00:10:48.340 Least of all

00:10:52.980 Tony Blair

00:10:54.040 The job of being the leader of the opposition

00:10:56.940 Is actually

00:10:57.960 really easy, at least compared to being the Prime Minister. It's really easy. You sort

00:11:05.360 of say whatever you want, people put you under a bit of scrutiny and you sort of fob them

00:11:09.520 off saying, yeah, we'll do this or that. How do you pay for that thing? You've just said,

00:11:12.980 oh, we'll just do this or that. You never have to prove it. You never have to actually

00:11:16.820 do it.

00:11:21.180 So, okay, all right, let's read the blurb on the iPaper, which is usually about the best

00:11:24.220 thing you get out fleet street on any given day we've got tory leader tries to build credibility

00:11:29.020 on defense although critics question 10 billion pound cost we'll get to it's the last bit but

00:11:36.980 it's that it costs way more than 10 billion obviously because all these things always

00:11:40.520 just building a bridge costs 100 million or something a small bridge okay badenoch is set

00:11:47.720 to turn the pressure up on labor with pledge to build an iron dome style missile defense system

00:11:53.440 If in power

00:11:54.540 Lucky she's not going to get anywhere near power then, isn't it?

00:11:59.380 Phew, that's lucky

00:12:00.440 Actually, I'll say that

00:12:01.940 In principle, it's not a bad idea

00:12:05.380 I'll say that

00:12:06.460 I'm happy to give credit where it's due

00:12:08.880 Even to my political enemies

00:12:09.980 In principle, absolutely not a bad idea

00:12:13.240 If we had endless buckets of money

00:12:15.340 Why not have a Britannia Dome style

00:12:18.840 Iron Dome protection thing?

00:12:20.360 I'll say that

00:12:23.900 But she won't get anywhere near power

00:12:25.120 I don't think the Tories are going to win power are they

00:12:27.680 Well I suppose the only avenue for it

00:12:30.480 Is if there's a hung parliament

00:12:32.320 At the next general election

00:12:33.900 Labour can't form a coalition

00:12:35.540 And reform and the Tories

00:12:38.300 Make a coalition government

00:12:39.740 Then maybe

00:12:43.200 But both of them have ruled it out

00:12:46.880 I wouldn't 1.00

00:12:47.840 Even though Kemi and Nige

00:12:49.800 have both said repeatedly and fairly vehemently

00:12:52.700 they would never enter into a coalition with each other

00:12:55.980 when you're faced with the reality

00:12:59.600 the reality of a hung parliament

00:13:02.540 and you could do a deal and you could be in power

00:13:06.620 people go back on every pledge they ever made

00:13:11.760 in those instances

00:13:13.100 and in a way you can't blame them

00:13:15.400 in a way it's not okay

00:13:18.380 I was about to say in a way it's okay 0.98

00:13:19.600 I mean it's not okay because you've become a hypocrite and you've gone back on what you've 0.96

00:13:23.360 promised and things but but if the whole country everyone from the palace on down 0.98

00:13:32.880 everyone from the king down to the lowliest peasant is clamoring for a government

00:13:39.760 you know days weeks months go past and there's just no government there's just a power vacuum

00:13:44.080 in the end most people would be like we don't actually care that you promise not to enter into

00:13:48.960 coalition just give us a government we'll see and if the results are what the polls are showing

00:13:56.740 right now i.e the uh tory reform coalition it would be reform would be the senior partner in

00:14:06.280 that wouldn't they probably probably if it were according to polling that we've got in early

00:14:11.720 October 2026. So if there were to be a conservative reform coalition, Nigel would be the

00:14:20.700 Prime Minister, not Kemi. Kemi would probably be Deputy Prime Minister, maybe Foreign Secretary

00:14:27.700 or something, I don't know, probably Deputy Prime Minister. Depends what she asked for.

00:14:32.500 But it would be Nige that would be the Prime Minister. And the way these things always 1.00

00:14:36.060 work is the senior partner in a coalition, they really hold the reins. Do you remember

00:14:41.340 the cameron clegg coalition you think oh nick clegg's deputy prime minister there's a few lib

00:14:49.580 dems in the cabinet it will be the lib dems will sort of balance the toryness a bit no no

00:14:56.780 tories basically did what they wanted within reason more or less like 98 of the time

00:15:01.820 and the lib dems were just sidelined

00:15:07.260 all right so but if she gets in power

00:15:12.140 She's going to do this Iron Dome style missile defence thing.

00:15:14.900 Okay, which in principle isn't necessarily a bad idea.

00:15:17.620 Britannia Shield would link new radar command systems

00:15:21.800 and interceptor missiles into single integrated network.

00:15:25.660 Well, that isn't the case anyway.

00:15:27.200 I don't know.

00:15:29.120 We've got all those things.

00:15:30.020 Have we got a new radar, command systems and interceptor missiles?

00:15:35.480 Have we got all those things?

00:15:37.960 Why aren't they just linked up as a matter of course?

00:15:41.340 OK, Labour struggling to fill £4.7 billion gap in defence budget 0.89

00:15:48.480 and meet pledge of spending 3% of GDP on defence amid grey warfare fears 0.60

00:15:56.980 In one of the front pages a bit later we'll see

00:16:00.860 that Andy Burnham, no Stone and Burnham

00:16:03.660 has decided to push back the spending review for defence

00:16:08.080 Even though it was the thing that collapsed the Starmer government in the end

00:16:13.480 He says, we're not going to review the spending on defence until next year, next autumn

00:16:21.140 Just like a pure exercise in kicking the can down the road, isn't it?

00:16:28.180 Pure

00:16:28.680 Pure and simple every time

00:16:32.600 so questions expected over how realistic 10 billion pound price tag is

00:16:39.000 following previous cost estimates of at least 80 billion pounds well yeah that's the reality isn't

00:16:45.860 it everything costs a fantastic amount more than you think it should like brewsters millions we're

00:16:52.180 living in brewsters millions world now how are you spending that much on it like the hs2 thing

00:16:58.960 anything just even if you pay attention to like your local area yeah like i say a small foot

00:17:04.740 bridge oh it's going to take five years and cost 50 million pounds or something what really how

00:17:10.260 how are you spending that much on it a new bus depot yeah it'll take five years it'll cost

00:17:15.600 30 million pounds really oh we actually sorry we need to rip it down and build it again from

00:17:20.940 scratch do you is there something nefarious going on here is it all a bit of a swizz

00:17:28.960 Is it corruption?

00:17:30.540 People are getting loads of under-the-table deals.

00:17:34.920 Is it that?

00:17:35.540 Just asking the question.

00:17:37.760 I'm just asking.

00:17:39.200 Is it that?

00:17:42.180 Okay.

00:17:42.940 It probably cost at least £80 billion.

00:17:45.660 Well, in terms of Britain and our money, our fiscal position, that's loads, isn't it?

00:17:53.740 That's loads.

00:17:54.380 We haven't got that sort of money.

00:17:55.260 we can barely pay the interest on our debts, national debts.

00:18:02.720 Most of the councils up and down this country are massively in debt.

00:18:08.520 We can't afford the upkeep of the NHS or pensions or the welfare bill or the Navy, etc, etc, etc.

00:18:17.680 Or just fill in potholes.

00:18:19.300 Oh, but she's going to find at least £80 billion

00:18:22.720 For a Britannia dome

00:18:25.260 Alright, love, if you say so

00:18:28.100 As I say, lucky she's just in opposition

00:18:30.200 And just can say anything

00:18:31.400 Okay

00:18:35.980 Little thing here

00:18:37.940 The speed of Zach Polanski, real name David Pauldens

00:18:41.560 Fall is spectacular

00:18:43.820 He hasn't quite fallen yet

00:18:45.100 I believe the vote in Holborn and St Pancrasis this week

00:18:49.280 isn't it, whether that will be a nail in his coffin politically, we shall see. He's insisted

00:18:57.900 that even if he does lose, which he probably will, looks like Labour will hold that seat,

00:19:02.540 might not, but probably will, even if he loses, he's not going to quit, he's saying it doesn't

00:19:08.140 just necessarily follow automatically that he's going to quit. But will there be a political

00:19:17.160 will coup d'etat against him within his own party in favour of Moffin Ali and the Islamists?

00:19:22.840 Or will they just wait about a year until that comes round, anyway, within the Green

00:19:28.160 Party ranks and coup him out at that point?

00:19:31.760 Ah, gone are the heady days with the Polanski bounce, when that woman, that awful girl,

00:19:42.320 awful child LARPing as a politician, one at Gaunton and Denton. Everyone thought, oh,

00:19:48.100 the Greens, ah, the Greens are the new left. The people are going to, millions and millions

00:19:54.240 of people across the country are going to flood away from Labour and start voting Green.

00:19:59.840 The Greens are the new hope. Thank God that just didn't materialise. I say thank God

00:20:08.560 Because as bad as Labour are 0.91

00:20:30.200 Out of their gourd, insane

00:20:32.600 So good

00:20:34.520 Okay, the Daily Express

00:20:36.780 It's a good paper

00:20:37.700 I don't know if you can read your express now.

00:20:40.660 It's definitely not subversive, anti-white, 0.97

00:20:43.980 anti-white globalist slop. 0.93

00:20:49.260 That's exactly what it is. 0.98

00:20:50.520 Wearing the skin suit of patriotism and nativism. 0.99

00:20:54.220 Like it's a third crusade era knight 0.99

00:20:58.580 with a St. George's cross shield,

00:21:01.220 stand up for Britain.

00:21:03.760 It's our enemy as much as the guardian

00:21:07.400 the metro or the spectator or whatever king will not fund andrew's legal action against police

00:21:16.920 you remember the story yesterday andrew saxobo gotha the king's little brother who sort of seems

00:21:25.240 to be seems not saying is that might be libelous but just seems to be might be some might allege

00:21:34.760 that currently he's a type of unconvicted criminal may well be guilty of all sorts of crimes

00:21:47.000 the police were certainly interested weren't they wanted to or did question him and he took

00:21:53.000 cumbridge to that i mean it was eight months ago but he took cumbridge that they questioned him

00:21:57.000 over you can only imagine prostitution maybe underage prostitution maybe people

00:22:06.360 trafficking maybe even I think it was actually what's the exact wording

00:22:13.980 something like a misconduct in public office or something he may have passed

00:22:17.760 Jeffrey Epstein the truly convicted child sex criminal sensitive information

00:22:27.000 about his role as some sort of international ambassador, wasn't he?

00:22:31.260 Some sort of international ambassador for business

00:22:33.060 going around the world on a taxpayer-funded jolly, effectively.

00:22:39.380 And if some accounts are to be believed, in Thailand, for example.

00:22:43.500 Some sort of sex holiday.

00:22:46.560 There's a book all about that.

00:22:47.680 Someone wrote a book, some insider.

00:22:49.480 He went berserk.

00:22:50.160 He went to Thailand on an official capacity, 1.00

00:22:53.800 went berserk with all the ladies there.

00:22:57.000 It was alleged by someone else

00:23:00.080 I'm not saying he did

00:23:01.320 Anyway

00:23:04.020 Andy wasn't happy that the police

00:23:06.820 Even dared to question him

00:23:08.960 They dared

00:23:10.620 To take him into a police station

00:23:12.480 And question him

00:23:13.220 About the decades of things

00:23:17.300 He may or may not have been

00:23:19.200 Responsible for

00:23:22.420 He wants to take the police to court

00:23:24.500 He's asked a judge to

00:23:25.560 See if they've done anything unlawful

00:23:28.560 Well anyway

00:23:29.220 He might have expected his big bro

00:23:32.580 Chuck

00:23:33.500 And his sausage fingers

00:23:35.520 Might have expected big bro to get his sausage fingers out

00:23:38.520 Dive into his wallet and pay for all of that

00:23:40.860 But sausage fingers says no

00:23:42.700 Best friend of Jimmy Savile

00:23:46.700 The King of England

00:23:47.720 Says no he's not going to do that

00:23:49.040 That's it

00:23:53.020 That is

00:24:22.760 like ex-generals or current generals

00:24:24.940 say this before

00:24:26.540 that we need an Iron Dome

00:24:27.840 okay

00:24:30.340 she's just conjured that out of thin air

00:24:32.000 to make herself look and sound

00:24:33.960 authoritative and badass

00:24:50.040 don't care

00:24:50.700 ah, Geoffrey Archer's died

00:24:52.500 jeffrey archer did you like jeffrey archer harry do you know anything about jeffrey archer

00:25:00.380 i have no clue right okay so i'll explain it for zoomers and or anyone that's foreign so this this

00:25:06.200 man here his name's jeffrey sorry the lord archer

00:25:11.580 and this is a picture taken only just the other day yeah it's the last picture jeffrey archer in

00:25:19.000 london on sunday so only like two days ago so he's died suddenly i don't think there was any

00:25:25.460 there's no question so far from reporting so far that he had a long battle with cancer or anything

00:25:30.680 he was 86 he was 86 not looking too bad for 86 and looked in fine federal there i guess he just

00:25:37.900 had a heart attack don't know but there's no question of foul play or anything he's died he's

00:25:43.200 Well he's a controversial figure

00:25:47.760 Quick

00:25:49.900 As I was saying

00:25:51.140 He has a very colourful life

00:25:52.200 So he was an MP

00:25:55.060 Tory MP

00:25:55.920 As a young man

00:25:57.540 Back in like the 70s

00:25:58.500 Was he I believe

00:25:59.840 First became an MP

00:26:01.120 Was it as long ago as that

00:26:03.480 The money wasn't good enough for him

00:26:06.140 So he started writing novels

00:26:07.400 He's an MP and a novelist

00:26:10.360 Well he's not an MP anymore

00:26:11.280 He was an MP and a novelist

00:26:13.460 Now I've never actually read a Geoffrey Archer novel

00:26:16.440 But he's written loads of them, dozens I believe

00:26:18.520 Dozens

00:26:18.920 Made crazy bank off of that

00:26:21.380 Like millions and millions and millions

00:26:23.040 Super rich

00:26:24.140 But I've never read a Geoffrey Archer novel

00:26:26.580 I don't know if I ever will

00:26:27.600 But I've heard they're not bad 0.99

00:26:30.400 I've heard they're not stupidly crap 0.99

00:26:34.200 As far as novels go 0.93

00:26:36.880 people in the chat if you've ever read one let us know was it actually any good

00:26:44.240 and in fact he's just finished another one called i think it's called adam and eve or something

00:26:50.080 so he's still writing throughout everything i'm going to tell you about his life over the next

00:26:53.680 few minutes he just was always writing novels and they would be bestsellers nearly every time

00:26:58.960 at least for a while it would be a bestseller just loads more money all right so so there's

00:27:05.060 he's written tons and tons of novels dozens i think of novels and made loads of money out of

00:27:09.540 it in the end he got a peerage as i say the lord archer but then but then there was scandal he got

00:27:16.500 really bad he was involved in a really bad scandal like so bad it's funny like in the late 80s i

00:27:25.380 believe these are the details in the late 80s he was accused of getting a prostitute he's married

00:27:32.420 happily married like all his adult life well maybe not happily but anyway married

00:27:38.280 and in the late 80s one of the tabloids said oh jeffrey archer's got a prostitute and he said

00:27:45.940 not only is that not true but i'll take you to court for for libel for saying that i think it

00:27:51.060 might have been the star the daily star anyway he took them to court for like light but for

00:27:57.520 besmirching his good name won like one half a million pound in damages which is pocket change

00:28:04.740 to jeffrey archer but anyway he won and then years later maybe it was the year 2000 he wanted to run

00:28:13.040 for mayor when i think when the mayor london mayor of london was new he wanted to run for that

00:28:18.800 And all the things got dug up about it

00:28:21.800 And

00:28:23.480 It turned out

00:28:25.680 That he'd

00:28:28.340 Made a couple of people around him

00:28:31.460 Lie

00:28:31.840 Like false entries in a diary

00:28:35.440 Like he had an alibi

00:28:37.560 He was able to win

00:28:39.640 That libel case because he was able to say

00:28:41.760 I couldn't have done it

00:28:43.340 Because on the day or the evening

00:28:45.440 Or whatever you said I did it

00:28:46.780 I've got an alibi, I was somewhere else

00:28:48.400 Well that was shown to be a liar

00:28:50.680 And that he'd forced or asked

00:28:52.700 A couple of other people around him in his team

00:28:54.760 To lie for him

00:28:56.280 But then he'd said these things in court

00:29:00.200 Well that's perjury isn't it

00:29:02.800 That's perjury

00:29:04.820 And perverting the course of justice

00:29:08.840 There's one thing just to lie

00:29:10.460 There's another thing to lie in court

00:29:13.940 In front of a judge

00:29:15.420 that's that's a crime in and of itself isn't it okay so he was found guilty of perjury and

00:29:23.580 perverting the course of justice and sent to prison for like four years four four and a half

00:29:28.000 years he only served like two it was a really minimum security prison where you just get to

00:29:34.180 play pool a lot i don't know if jeffrey arch played much pool but the minimum security prison

00:29:38.540 he only served like two years out of four but yeah i think he was like deputy chairman of the

00:29:43.760 Conservative Party at the time, something like that. It's like kind of a household name type

00:29:48.700 thing. It was a massive scandal. I remember that. I was firm. I was already like an adult at that

00:29:53.460 point, very young adult. I remember all of the Geoffrey Archer scandal. Well, anyway, after that,

00:29:59.420 he just wrote a couple of books about what it was like to be in prison. Obviously, his political

00:30:03.920 career is over, but just carried on writing books, making loads of money, lived in an incredible flat

00:30:09.780 overlooking the Thames, bought loads of art, you know, proper, like, Picassos and stuff.

00:30:15.560 He was that rich.

00:30:17.100 Did he have a private collection of Victoria Crosses?

00:30:19.580 Every now and again, a Victoria Cross will come up at, like, Sotheby's or something.

00:30:24.980 Anyway, he was just, like, an art collector.

00:30:27.460 Massively rich.

00:30:28.780 All right, Geoffrey Archer.

00:30:30.460 Anyone on the left loathed him.

00:30:33.480 They were so gleeful when he went to prison.

00:30:37.040 So gleeful.

00:30:39.780 Well, even a lot of Tories don't like him.

00:30:44.420 I thought he seemed like a, not a great person,

00:30:50.380 but he seemed to take it all with relatively good humour.

00:30:56.500 He might have been quite an interesting man to sit down with,

00:31:00.300 have a meal and a chat to.

00:31:03.320 Led quite an interesting life, a much more interesting life

00:31:06.320 than most of us, put it that way at least.

00:31:08.080 Well, he's popped his clogs at 86 out of the blue

00:31:11.820 There you go, Geoffrey Archer

00:31:13.800 Alright, back to the main story

00:31:16.640 Less interesting main story

00:31:18.420 Tories vow to build Iron Dome to stop drones and missiles

00:31:22.440 Party plans new £10 billion Britannia Shield to protect the nation's skies

00:31:26.920 Okay

00:31:27.760 Oh look, the Daily Mail pretending it actually cares about Britain

00:31:31.500 Don't leave Britain defenceless, a Daily Mail campaign

00:31:34.560 Why are you pretending you care about Britain? 0.96

00:31:38.080 and you try and ruin anyone that talks about re-migration why why are you pretending you 0.84

00:31:42.960 care about britain now why are you doing that why are you wearing the skin suit of patriotism and

00:31:48.320 nativism don't buy it don't believe it get someone like zia yusuf much less charlie downs or reaper

00:31:58.560 lowe you're trying to destroy them you get someone like suela breverman talking about how

00:32:03.520 she's not english try and destroy them

00:32:08.080 You don't care that the native people of these islands are being demographically replaced,

00:32:14.400 become a hated and marginalised minority in their one and only ancestral homeland.

00:32:19.440 They don't seem to care about that at all. In fact, the only conclusion I can come to is that

00:32:24.880 the male actively want that because they try and destroy anyone who advocates against it.

00:32:31.680 Remigration, talk of remigration is beyond the pale, vile politics of that sort of thing.

00:32:38.080 So don't pretend you care about how defenceless or not Britain is, what about the enemies 0.99

00:32:45.820 within the gate, what about the barbarians that are already here, you know, they've got 0.97

00:32:51.020 to stay forever, according to the mail. 0.96

00:32:57.800 It would be un-British, it would basically be a Nazi if you advocated for demographic 0.63

00:33:04.300 security. But also, and at the same time, they care about the defence of Britain, do 0.76

00:33:11.120 they? No. Nonsense. Okay, the Daily Star. Ugh, what is that? Ugh, what is that? Physionomy

00:33:28.480 of that oh god i can't i'm just going to move on that's something out of a john carpenter horror

00:33:35.600 was it that's supposed to be oh it's not the physiognomy of a british person is it

00:33:46.640 okay the sun iron dome lady this weird freak cuckoo in the nest bizarrely finds herself

00:33:55.040 LARPing as the leader of the opposition because the Tory parliamentary party have got a bizarre

00:34:02.320 freakish fetish for an outgroup, an outgroup preference.

00:34:12.560 They had a choice basically, didn't they, basically between Robert Jenrick and this.

00:34:19.280 And they chose this thing.

00:34:25.040 gross okay the times the venerable times what have we got here the king will not fund andrew's

00:34:36.860 case got it right the lord archer has died got it pm looks to push back decision on defense

00:34:44.600 cash see that's what i was saying earlier but tories to pledge pledge 10 billion pounds for

00:34:48.720 missile defense the story says i read this this morning yeah it says he's gonna he's gonna push

00:34:53.300 it back, kick the can down the road till next autumn, I think it was. That's a man with

00:35:01.820 no sternum, isn't it? Andy Burnham. Pure weakness. Is he weaker than Starmer? Politically. Weaker.

00:35:12.600 Very, very weak man, isn't he? He's not a leader of men. He's an empty shirt. A room

00:35:19.720 without a view i would argue okay the independent jeffrey archer's died right the last cool

00:35:32.160 generation why it will never get as good as the 1990s and what's that a picture of kate moss

00:35:38.780 from the 90s one thing i will say and i will caveat this by saying that a lot of people think

00:35:50.040 their generation was the best the old the generation that's older than you they're all

00:35:54.640 they're all old fogies they they dropped the ball and they didn't know what they were doing and 0.88

00:35:59.680 they're to blame for the world's ills it's not just right now in this generation we blame boomers 0.97

00:36:04.940 a lot of people i don't a lot of people blame boomers for everything that's always gone on 0.76

00:36:09.580 throughout history the last generation it's all their fault and the younger people they don't 0.96

00:36:15.280 know their ass from their elbow either we were the best we're the good ones we know that has 0.90

00:36:20.480 gone on throughout all of human history so i caveat what i'm about to say by saying maybe 0.98

00:36:25.840 quite possibly i've got that bias that being sort of a 90s kid or an 80s kid and then a 90s teenager

00:36:32.320 To say that it was a golden age

00:36:35.680 In my day, in my youth

00:36:36.800 It was a golden age

00:36:37.680 It was the best of times

00:36:38.620 But

00:36:40.320 It does seem to me

00:36:44.180 That the world before 9-11, 2001

00:36:46.660 So the 90s really

00:36:48.680 Between the collapse of the Berlin Wall in 1989

00:36:52.260 And 9-11 in 2001

00:36:54.400 It does seem to me 0.99

00:36:56.300 That that was perhaps something

00:37:00.320 Of a mini golden age

00:37:02.060 or something in the west in the west for the anglosphere it's probably not great if you lived

00:37:05.900 in like miranda or something but i think i really do think you know i've already caveated that this

00:37:14.460 with that that thing that may be unbiased but i think his stories might look back in centuries

00:37:21.100 from now and say what i just said between 1989 and 2001 for the west that was a a golden period

00:37:29.740 A silver age, perhaps, something like that.

00:37:37.100 Am I just so badly biased that I can't really,

00:37:40.420 I can't see the wood for the trees?

00:37:42.300 Okay, the Lord Archers died, got it.

00:37:45.540 The Tories vow to cut inheritance tax in free market revival.

00:37:49.260 Get rid of inheritance tax.

00:37:50.660 That's the policy of Restore UK, sorry, Restore Britain,

00:37:54.400 and I think Reform UK, isn't it?

00:37:56.540 I think it is.

00:37:57.060 I think both restore and reform say, certainly, certainly restore,

00:38:00.820 because Rupert said it just the other day at conference.

00:38:02.640 I think both of them.

00:38:03.740 They'll just get rid of inheritance tax entirely.

00:38:06.560 Yeah, good, good, yeah.

00:38:08.080 Inheritance tax, to me, has always been a socialist state-sponsored theft.

00:38:13.040 Nearly all tax, some would argue, libertarians would argue,

00:38:16.140 all tax is state-sponsored theft.

00:38:19.860 I think inheritance tax is a particularly egregious example of that.

00:38:24.400 You've been taxed your whole life on everything you've ever spent

00:38:27.620 Everything you've ever earned

00:38:29.040 Income tax

00:38:32.300 You've actually done something

00:38:34.060 You've earned money and they tax it

00:38:36.340 Throughout your whole life

00:38:37.940 More and more and more taxes

00:38:39.060 And then when you die

00:38:40.180 Above a certain threshold anyway 0.76

00:38:42.480 And then when you die

00:38:43.520 The state goes, yoink 0.63

00:38:44.940 We'll have more of that as well

00:38:46.380 Because you dared to pass away

00:38:48.620 It's complete leftism inheritance tax

00:38:53.300 Because they hate inherited wealth

00:38:55.500 They hate it

00:38:56.880 The concept of old money

00:38:59.540 It's not fair according to them

00:39:05.240 No, inheritance tax is what's not fair

00:39:08.140 The Tories vow to cut it

00:39:10.540 Get rid of it

00:39:11.300 Cut it

00:39:12.840 Get rid of it 1.00

00:39:14.880 Baden-Ock bids to win back lost voters 1.00

00:39:20.920 With promise to slash taxes

00:39:22.680 Starting with a headline pledge on inheritance

00:39:26.600 As party languishes in third place behind Labour and reform in polls

00:39:30.280 And I think I said yesterday, didn't I?

00:39:33.320 It is just the fact, isn't it?

00:39:36.240 That although nationally somehow the Tories come out in polling third

00:39:40.940 At like 19%, 20%, something in that ballpark, don't they?

00:39:46.420 The reality at the ballot box, with that one exception of Scotland

00:39:49.600 They do terribly

00:39:52.060 They're doing terribly

00:39:53.020 I'm not picking my nose

00:39:56.760 That isn't picking my nose

00:39:58.020 Just touching your nose isn't picking your nose

00:40:01.520 Suddenly the chat said that

00:40:02.880 A couple of times yesterday

00:40:04.020 Stop picking your nose

00:40:04.740 I'm not picking my nose

00:40:05.780 I'm an itchy nose

00:40:07.620 I'm putting my finger up my nose

00:40:09.680 Digging around

00:40:10.500 Anyway

00:40:12.660 They do terribly at the polls, the Tories

00:40:17.080 I mean, beaten by a restore

00:40:18.780 Regularly

00:40:20.020 Regularly

00:40:21.500 they struggle to get like five six percent the tories often with one or two exceptions

00:40:27.740 all right good good good the mirror something about rich d grant don't care jeffrey archer's

00:40:34.820 died we got it the king won't pay for andrew's uh problems got it okay the daily telegraph

00:40:41.480 zionist uh german-owned zionist anti-white anti-british lord archer's died and the king

00:40:49.600 won't pay for Andrew. Got it. All right. Oh, this is mildly interesting. So Nandy buries critical

00:40:55.640 report into UAE Telegraph takeover. This is a while ago, like a year ago, a UAE based

00:41:00.960 group was trying to buy the Telegraph. It all fell through. And there was a big report by,

00:41:07.560 I think by Ofcom about it. And it was supposed to be published by Lisa Nandy and the Department

00:41:13.820 of Culture. And she's just burying it. She's just not going to publish it.

00:41:19.600 Weird. Weird.

00:41:23.080 Okay.

00:41:25.760 A vote... I won't say this in the first person because it will get clipped.

00:41:29.060 A vote for Zach Polanski, real name David Porden.

00:41:31.780 A vote for him is a vote for Israel.

00:41:35.320 Huh. Odd.

00:41:37.480 Didn't the Green Party just pass a resolution at their conference

00:41:41.580 making it party policy that Zionism is racism?

00:41:46.080 Square that circle.

00:41:47.160 Although, to be fair, apparently this is a quote from David Pauldin

00:41:51.600 Back when he was running for the Lib Dems

00:41:53.600 Like quite a while ago, a few years ago

00:41:55.240 Still

00:41:56.360 Make that square peg go through a round hole

00:42:02.520 Okay

00:42:05.160 Police arrest teenager over rent boy joke

00:42:09.080 Apparently there's this kid, 15 year old, I think 15 year old kid

00:42:12.680 Says he's a reform supporter

00:42:15.880 Has that got to do with anything really?

00:42:19.280 He's not even old enough to be a member or anything

00:42:20.820 But okay, they've thrown that in

00:42:22.100 Apparently on Facebook

00:42:23.640 He said his local MP

00:42:25.440 Think of Tory MP

00:42:26.560 I'm not sure

00:42:27.200 Anyway

00:42:27.480 He went on Facebook and said his Tory MP

00:42:30.420 Looked like a rent boy

00:42:31.880 Four cops turned up at his house

00:42:36.420 And raided it

00:42:37.680 And arrested him

00:42:38.520 Hmm

00:42:41.760 Hmm

00:42:44.680 I hope that in the final reckoning

00:42:49.880 He gets loads of compensation for that

00:42:52.620 What an injustice 0.97

00:42:54.140 Ridiculous 1.00

00:42:56.080 You should be allowed to say something like that 1.00

00:42:57.860 Surely that's

00:42:58.820 You could argue that's a joke or tugging cheek

00:43:01.140 Not say

00:43:02.580 I don't think

00:43:03.060 Oh I don't know the actual post

00:43:04.280 I've not seen the actual post

00:43:05.260 I don't think he's saying

00:43:05.980 He was a rent boy

00:43:07.340 Not alleging that he was actually 0.84

00:43:09.540 Some sort of male prostitute 0.99

00:43:10.820 He just said he was dressed like one 1.00

00:43:12.360 He thought he was dressed like one

00:43:15.240 That's a crime now, is it?

00:43:19.100 This country.

00:43:21.160 All right.

00:43:21.940 What else have we got?

00:43:22.480 The Guardian.

00:43:22.980 Ew.

00:43:24.620 The Stainham.

00:43:25.340 Ew.

00:43:26.300 The Guardian.

00:43:27.600 Look at you.

00:43:28.520 State of you.

00:43:29.820 You should be ashamed of yourself.

00:43:33.140 Okay. 0.57

00:43:34.200 Sharp rising under 50s cancer.

00:43:36.300 A ticking time bomb, says experts.

00:43:37.880 Yeah, according to this,

00:43:39.680 the amount of cancer people are getting when they're under 50

00:43:43.320 is just, like, quadrupled in the last few years.

00:43:46.600 Mainly prostate cancer, kidney cancer, bowel cancer.

00:43:52.420 There's something in the water.

00:43:56.620 Okay. 1.00

00:43:58.960 The second or third generation foreign kids in France 1.00

00:44:01.460 are still going berserk,

00:44:02.980 and the mainstream media are pretending it's about school reform.

00:44:08.560 Yeah, I mean, that's what that is.

00:44:10.340 School protests intensify.

00:44:11.780 Are they school protests?

00:44:14.140 Is it?

00:44:14.600 It's about schools.

00:44:15.660 Is it?

00:44:16.960 France braces for day of blockades.

00:44:20.240 Apparently today is going to be a big push by the subversive enemies, 0.97

00:44:25.580 sectarian enemies of France that live there. 0.99

00:44:30.720 Right.

00:44:32.680 So it's a sectarian nightmare is beginning along racial, religious, ethnic and tribal lines. 0.89

00:44:38.500 Right. 0.66

00:44:39.100 But you're going to pretend it's about schools.

00:44:40.760 Yeah, sure

00:44:41.840 Yeah, it's because they care about their education so much

00:44:45.880 A few of their textbooks are mouldering

00:44:49.200 Some of the classrooms haven't got aircon

00:44:51.600 That's why they're going berserk

00:44:54.540 And setting people alight

00:44:56.360 And setting their schools alight

00:44:57.680 Yeah, right

00:44:58.980 Yeah, sure

00:45:01.380 Bolsonaro Jr. poised to win Brazil presidency

00:45:06.140 That'd be nice, wouldn't it?

00:45:08.560 Bolsonaro Jr., by the way

00:45:10.400 do be aware it's not the old Bolsonaro he's they banged him up they put him in prison for 27 years

00:45:21.280 just make that clear yeah the old Bolsonaro when he lost the last election they then the left got

00:45:28.480 in and accused him of of uh trying to orchestrate a military coup d'etat banged him in prison for 27

00:45:36.080 years and he's 70 odd so he'll die in prison of old age well his son bolsonaro jr who was also

00:45:41.760 a politician i believe equivalent of a congressman or whatever um he says if he wins he would just

00:45:49.920 pardon his father fair enough i suppose i don't actually know all the details in fantastic

00:45:58.320 amount of detail about

00:46:00.960 the ins and outs

00:46:03.160 of that

00:46:03.580 alleged coup d'etat

00:46:06.800 but there you go

00:46:09.200 it looks like he may well win, people are saying

00:46:11.000 people that are in the know

00:46:13.400 about Brazilian politics

00:46:14.780 and even like the markets and stuff

00:46:16.640 are all saying Bolsonaro Jr.

00:46:18.900 will probably win, the second round

00:46:20.940 of it isn't until the end of October

00:46:22.680 like the 25th of October

00:46:23.780 but most people in the know saying

00:46:27.060 It's going to be hard for Lula to come back

00:46:30.080 From that

00:46:30.700 And that Bolsonaro Jr. will probably win

00:46:34.020 Well

00:46:34.400 Isn't it interesting

00:46:36.800 UK threat to expel Israeli diplomats

00:46:39.400 As row deepens

00:46:40.740 So if you remember

00:46:42.040 Ed Miliband came out and said

00:46:44.420 That the illegal

00:46:47.040 Illegal occupation of various parts of the West Bank

00:46:50.040 Was bad and a travesty

00:46:51.900 And the Israelis were upset with that 1.00

00:46:54.360 And said they would even close

00:46:55.660 One of the

00:46:57.780 Consulates

00:46:59.240 Not the full embassy

00:47:00.280 But the consulate

00:47:01.020 In East Jerusalem

00:47:02.380 And Britain have now said

00:47:04.300 If you do do that

00:47:05.320 Which is set to happen

00:47:06.140 This week or next week

00:47:07.120 If you do do that

00:47:08.440 For every

00:47:09.120 For every

00:47:10.080 UK diplomat

00:47:11.440 You send home 1.00

00:47:12.260 We'll send an Israeli one 1.00

00:47:14.000 Home from London 1.00

00:47:15.220 That's classic

00:47:16.820 That's the way

00:47:17.220 Things

00:47:17.780 That's the way these things go 1.00

00:47:18.920 Usually the Russians 0.98

00:47:20.360 We do that sort of thing with 0.97

00:47:21.480 But now it's happening 0.99

00:47:23.880 With Israel 0.99

00:47:24.420 So 1.00

00:47:25.300 All right

00:47:28.720 The Metro

00:47:31.360 The Metro

00:47:33.280 Get a load of this

00:47:36.860 Up to 27,000 sex attacks over three years

00:47:41.180 In universities

00:47:43.140 Predators stalking our unis

00:47:45.300 Was that always the case?

00:47:47.180 Back in the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s

00:47:49.480 Was that the case?

00:47:50.540 No

00:47:50.740 What's changed?

00:47:55.300 Student survey reveals abuse in chilling echo of Cornell's scandal.

00:48:01.300 It says out of the over 215,000 women going to uni this year,

00:48:07.300 about one in eight of them can expect to be raped or be the victim of a sexual assault.

00:48:13.300 One in eight.

00:48:15.300 Why is that?

00:48:17.300 Why is it that that didn't used to be the case and now it is?

00:48:22.300 What's changed?

00:48:25.300 you will know what's changed. 0.99

00:48:30.160 Foreign students

00:48:31.800 from different cultures

00:48:35.200 that see women very differently,

00:48:40.980 view sex crime very differently.

00:48:45.480 That's what's changed.

00:48:49.400 Financial Times.

00:48:52.700 Russian Alert, Death Triggers, Plague Watch,

00:48:54.860 We talked a bit about the plague, didn't we, earlier at the beginning.

00:48:57.760 Sainsbury's and Morrison's were going to maybe merge,

00:49:00.560 but now they're not going to.

00:49:02.320 Big story.

00:49:03.980 Okay, that's it.

00:49:05.760 That's it.

00:49:07.300 Increasingly absurd and frustrating front pages.

00:49:12.520 Well, I'm just buying omission massively.

00:49:17.520 Should we check in with the price accrued?

00:49:19.280 It is down from yesterday.

00:49:22.240 rent just under a hundred dollars a barrel west texas just under 89 a barrel

00:49:30.280 mad isn't it interesting and mad now that doesn't uh translate into what we play at the pump is

00:49:40.440 something else all right let's have a look at our poll we usually do our poll this time of the show

00:49:44.020 don't we let's have a look harry if you can bring that up for me if you wouldn't mind can you make

00:49:47.720 it so engage there it is okay well over a thousand votes lovely jubbly um we asked you guys this

00:49:56.740 morning are you worried about a global plague pandemic and the no's have it to a massive degree

00:50:04.040 no 85 percent of you knocking up towards 1100 votes 85 percent of you say no you're not worried

00:50:10.560 about that you think it's fake news i take it largely i would have thought or just that it's

00:50:17.100 not it will be contained or that it's just fake news it's a psyop or whatever it's anti-russian

00:50:22.700 uh you know fear-mongering or something a cool 85 percent if you say you're not worried about

00:50:29.180 that fair enough fair enough i'm not particularly worried about it i was taking that poll and we

00:50:33.860 didn't give you a maybe or don't know option it's just yes or no binary i would say no

00:50:37.780 okay all right it's already 10-2 so let's just move straight on to on this day in history I

00:50:48.620 quite like doing that bit you guys seem to like me doing that bit on the 6th of October

00:50:52.220 down through the centuries they the millennia what happened of note let's have a look

00:50:56.960 all right so they're all 20th century ones today okay so we've got on this day in 1917

00:51:04.280 The Third Battle of Ypres

00:51:07.220 How you pronounce that 0.79

00:51:10.180 How French you want to go with that pronunciation

00:51:12.420 It is up to you

00:51:13.780 Some English people at the time

00:51:16.920 Would call it Wipers

00:51:18.640 Look, there's a place in Belgium 1.00

00:51:21.100 Sorry, there's a place in Belgium

00:51:22.320 Called

00:51:23.880 And it's written like that 0.99

00:51:25.240 Y-P-R-E-S

00:51:26.660 If you wanted to anglicise it 1.00

00:51:29.380 To sort of a comical degree

00:51:30.480 You could call it Wipers

00:51:31.700 A lot of English people call it Ypres

00:51:34.880 I think the French pronounce it more like

00:51:37.960 Ypres

00:51:38.800 Or the Belgians rather

00:51:41.900 Belgians pronounce it more like Ypres

00:51:43.700 Okay, the third battle of wipers

00:51:46.700 It's a bad one

00:51:48.660 It's a bad one

00:51:50.360 In 1917 they'd had the Nivelle Offensive 0.95

00:51:52.740 The French, earlier in the year

00:51:54.320 Which was terrible 1.00

00:51:56.460 Absolutely terrible

00:51:57.360 The French soldiers

00:51:59.740 The average soldiery

00:52:01.340 Very nearly mutinied

00:52:02.860 Sort of did mutiny

00:52:03.700 Not completely mutiny

00:52:04.840 But like we're not doing that again

00:52:05.840 We're not doing these crazy offensives

00:52:08.040 Where half a million

00:52:08.900 400,000, 2,000, 3,000, 400,000 men die

00:52:11.200 For no real gain

00:52:12.720 We're not doing that anymore

00:52:14.040 The French army said

00:52:16.520 After the Nivelle offensive

00:52:18.680 But the British and Canadians

00:52:20.480 And Commonwealth soldiers

00:52:21.960 Up in Ypres

00:52:24.180 Up near the North Sea actually

00:52:27.300 It's not that far from the sea

00:52:28.840 We decided to go on the offensive

00:52:32.560 There's a picture there

00:52:35.300 Canadian troops recapture the high ground

00:52:38.380 In the village of Passchendaele

00:52:39.800 From the Germans in West Flanders, Belgium

00:52:42.080 During World War I

00:52:43.280 Over 200,000 casualties occur

00:52:46.000 On each side

00:52:47.960 And 24,000 German prisoners are taken

00:52:51.140 Talked about World War I

00:52:55.140 On my history themed show

00:52:57.240 Epochs

00:52:57.980 Bo Day's Epochs

00:52:58.660 Behind the Paywall

00:52:59.280 On OTCs.com

00:53:00.340 Consider to sign up

00:53:00.980 For as little as

00:53:01.340 Five pound a month

00:53:01.880 Bronshire membership

00:53:02.540 I've talked about

00:53:03.780 World War I

00:53:04.920 On and off

00:53:05.480 I've talked about

00:53:06.460 I've talked about

00:53:07.280 Eat before

00:53:07.980 Passchendaele

00:53:10.940 It was such a

00:53:12.020 Giant offensive

00:53:12.800 That there were

00:53:14.300 Battles within battles

00:53:15.760 The battle around

00:53:17.420 The village of

00:53:18.000 Passchendaele

00:53:18.520 Was just one

00:53:19.160 Sickly muddy

00:53:20.860 Sort of crazily muddy

00:53:22.120 That was sort of

00:53:22.780 The famous thing

00:53:24.060 About Passchendaele

00:53:24.880 How muddy it was 0.85

00:53:27.220 There was like Pilkham

00:53:29.740 Pilkham Ridge

00:53:31.580 Battle for the Menin Road

00:53:34.260 A number of

00:53:38.160 A number of giant battles

00:53:39.560 Battles within battles

00:53:40.680 And just the slaughter was just

00:53:43.480 Just insane

00:53:47.540 200,000

00:53:48.980 200,000

00:53:51.140 Each

00:53:51.880 For very very little gain

00:53:55.500 The salient

00:53:58.240 Remained a salient

00:53:59.540 After this battle

00:54:01.160 Just truly insane

00:54:05.280 How revisionists

00:54:08.880 Can make the argument

00:54:10.060 That the generals

00:54:11.400 Particularly what like Haig

00:54:12.820 Field Marshal Douglas Haig

00:54:14.760 How they can make the argument

00:54:16.760 Actually he did his best

00:54:17.960 And he was really good

00:54:18.640 And he made some great decisions

00:54:19.920 And it's only crazy

00:54:22.920 anti-British historians

00:54:25.920 after the fact

00:54:26.720 have maligned his name.

00:54:28.480 No, no, no. 1.00

00:54:30.660 He's crazy. 1.00

00:54:31.760 He's a very, very bad decision maker. 1.00

00:54:36.360 In the end,

00:54:36.760 the government had to take it

00:54:37.720 out of his hands.

00:54:38.940 In the end,

00:54:39.400 the government of Lloyd George

00:54:40.660 was like,

00:54:41.180 no, we're not sending

00:54:41.860 any more divisions

00:54:42.640 over to Belgium

00:54:43.680 because you're just going to 0.99

00:54:44.840 throw them into the meat grinder.

00:54:46.500 No, we're not sending you 0.99

00:54:47.180 any more men.

00:54:48.220 End the offensive, 1.00

00:54:49.760 you psycho. 1.00

00:54:50.200 Alright 1.00

00:54:54.440 I know Sheffield Lofer

00:54:57.160 Big fan of the show

00:55:00.100 And a great guy, seems like a great guy

00:55:01.760 I never met him in person or anything

00:55:02.800 But he knows his World War I inside out 0.63

00:55:04.440 He would argue what I just said there about Haig

00:55:07.100 It's not fair, not true

00:55:07.940 But that's my feeling

00:55:09.800 Alright, on this day in 1948

00:55:12.040 Earthquake in Ashgabat

00:55:14.660 Kills 100,000 in Turkmen's Soviet Socialist Republic

00:55:18.180 What today is Turkmenistan

00:55:20.520 100,000 0.90

00:55:23.640 Crazy isn't it

00:55:26.100 Probably never heard of that

00:55:27.760 I had to look it up this morning

00:55:29.260 So

00:55:29.900 Okay

00:55:32.400 On this same day in 1948

00:55:34.640 Paleoanthropologist

00:55:37.480 Anthropologist

00:55:39.420 Mary Leakey

00:55:40.420 Finds the first partial fossil skull

00:55:42.740 Of Proconsul Africanus

00:55:44.900 An ancestor of apes and humans

00:55:46.940 on Rasinga Island, Kenya.

00:55:49.000 Did she?

00:55:49.480 Well done.

00:55:50.320 All right.

00:55:50.660 On this day, 1949,

00:55:52.280 US President Harry Truman

00:55:53.460 signs the Mutual Defence Assistance Act

00:55:56.120 to strengthen NATO allies,

00:55:59.460 especially Greece and Turkey.

00:56:01.280 It's sort of NATO.

00:56:03.240 Harry Truman's an interesting guy.

00:56:04.600 I've spent a bit of time

00:56:05.740 studying the life of Harry Truman.

00:56:07.340 I read a long book about Harry Truman once,

00:56:09.500 probably about,

00:56:10.460 it was just before I started,

00:56:11.240 so it's got to be knocking six years ago,

00:56:13.800 six, seven years ago.

00:56:15.220 Harry Truman.

00:56:15.500 For years, I despised Harry Truman

00:56:18.800 Because he dropped the bomb on Japan

00:56:20.880 Which I always thought was completely unnecessary

00:56:24.340 Over the last 15 years or so

00:56:28.840 I've changed my mind a bit on that

00:56:30.360 Not necessarily the efficacy of dropping the nuke

00:56:33.900 But

00:56:34.160 On Truman

00:56:37.460 An interesting man

00:56:39.860 Very, very interesting man

00:56:40.740 A bit like an accidental president

00:56:42.300 I called John Major the other day

00:56:44.560 Like an accidental prime minister

00:56:47.400 Truman was sort of an accidental president

00:56:49.880 FDR only picked him to be vice pres shortly before he died

00:56:56.240 Kevin Truman was a haberdasher

00:57:00.920 Before he got into politics

00:57:02.580 He'd been a middling officer in World War I

00:57:06.360 An artillery officer if memory serves

00:57:07.900 And then a senator

00:57:12.040 and then at the last moment sort of at the last moment promoted to vice president because fdr

00:57:19.680 thought he's sort of a quiet man i can just keep away from power i want a vice president who's not

00:57:24.900 going to get involved i'm not going to have any sort of power struggles with i want a quiet man

00:57:29.240 to be my my deputy president and then fdr dies of natural causes and suddenly truman's in the big

00:57:37.620 see. Anyway, anyway, could go on about Truman, could go on and on about Truman. Fascinating

00:57:46.060 person, I think, much more than you might, you might think, oh, he's a grey, boring guy,

00:57:51.240 and in some ways he was, many ways he was. You could argue he's the most powerful man

00:57:57.420 ever to have lived, Harry Truman. You could make that argument, right? In that window

00:58:01.920 of time between the United States having the nuke, and before anyone else, the Soviets

00:58:06.320 and Stalin got a nuke, you could argue, and after World War II, when the United States 0.57

00:58:12.200 was hegemon of most of the world, you could argue that in that window, no single man has 0.64

00:58:18.720 been more powerful, ever. Not Alexander, not Caesar, not Genghis Khan, nothing. Harry Truman

00:58:27.300 from Missouri, wasn't he? Haberdasher from Missouri. Oh, right. On this day, 1951, Joseph

00:58:36.300 Stalin announces that the Soviet Union has an atomic bomb. Largely stolen, the information.

00:58:43.900 Klaus Fuchs, all that stuff. The Rosenbergs. Yeah, look into it. Alright, on this day in 1956, 0.66

00:58:56.700 scientist Albert Savin announces that his oral polio vaccine is ready for testing.

00:59:01.980 it soon replaces Jonas Salk's vaccine in many parts of the world. Well, the world being largely

00:59:09.820 relieved of the polio scourge is good, isn't it? Obviously, good. 1956, is that later than

00:59:17.420 you might think in history? Or earlier? Okay, polio, 1956. Okay, and on this day in 2001,

00:59:24.940 the World Health Organization Director General, Ted Ross, I won't try and pronounce his other

00:59:30.300 names everyone just calls him Tedros don't they because no one can pronounce his other names

00:59:33.900 Tedros uh recommends the world's first malaria vaccine Mosquirix for children after pilot

00:59:41.820 program proves effective in Africa well good I suppose all right let's have a look at our 1.00

01:16:03.640 Although I don't know a great deal

01:16:06.440 I've watched all these, the few handful of speeches that were on YouTube and stuff.

01:16:10.580 I don't know a great deal about him personally and his life.

01:16:14.300 I have heard that Ed Dutton, Professor Ed Dutton, friend of the show,

01:16:18.260 who's been on The Breakfast Show a number of times,

01:16:20.800 the Professor Edward Dutton, I get him on again,

01:16:23.420 ask him if he'll come on this Friday, maybe.

01:16:26.020 I believe he wrote a book looking at Jonathan Bowden's personal life

01:16:30.980 and that it wasn't great.

01:16:34.280 But I've not read that book, so I don't know the details of it.

01:16:36.440 But as for his sort of famous speeches

01:16:38.940 About clearing them out

01:16:40.320 Good stuff, great stuff

01:16:41.900 Yeah, love it

01:16:51.140 In the year of our Lord, 2026

01:16:52.480 Thank you for joining me

01:16:53.260 Without you guys it isn't a thing

01:16:54.320 You're my glorious band

01:16:55.820 The chosen few

01:16:56.560 My band of brothers and sisters

01:16:58.860 Try and make the best of the day ahead

01:17:01.580 If you can

01:17:02.660 You've got a finite number of days on this earth

01:17:04.500 Doesn't feel like it very often

01:17:05.640 Especially if you're young 0.89

01:17:06.320 But it's true

01:17:06.840 Probably nicer than you think

01:17:08.360 If you're at liberty today

01:17:10.220 To do whatever you want with your time

01:17:12.120 Try and do something valuable with it

01:17:13.520 I mean, I'm not going to get preachy about it

01:17:15.340 You do you

01:17:15.780 But

01:17:16.040 Try and do something valuable with it

01:17:18.400 If you can

01:17:19.100 Because it's finite

01:17:20.720 It's the most valuable thing you will ever have

01:17:22.900 Is your time

01:17:23.480 Way more valuable than any gold or silver

01:17:25.540 Or gems or houses or cars you might ever own

01:17:27.720 You can't take that with you, can you?

01:17:29.120 In the final reckoning

01:17:29.780 Your time is the most valuable thing you will have

01:17:32.420 Carpe diem

01:17:33.480 Try and seize the day if you can

01:17:34.680 Alright then, until tomorrow morning, guys

01:17:35.980 Take care.
