The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters - Breakfast With Beau

00:00:00.820 Morning. You alright? How are you doing this fine morning? Good to meet you, Morgan. Buenos

00:00:08.560 dias. Harry, I'm joined by little Harry, my producer. How are you, Harry? You alright?

00:00:12.220 Hi, I'm good. Good stuff. Good stuff. Thank you for joining me. You are watching Breakfast

00:00:16.760 with Beau, colloquially known as The Beau Show. Beau's Breakfast Club, the BBC, the

00:00:22.820 Lotus Eaters Breakfast Club. Thank you for joining us. You are the glorious band, the

00:00:28.100 chosen few. We few. We happy few. We band of brothers. Alright, let's just get straight

00:00:47.220 into it then, shall we? The news. What's going on today? What's the corporate legacy mainstream

00:00:51.140 media talking about today? What's the world banging on about Wednesday morning, the 28th

00:00:56.140 of January, in the year of our law, 2026. Alright, half measures and fake jobs for sale.

00:01:03.520 Alright, half measures. Alright, so the mirror. Let's just jump straight into the mirror. There's

00:01:06.980 the beautiful Princess of Wales. There. Kate. She opened a rugby club. She had her hair

00:01:15.380 down. I like to wear my hair down when I can. It was a bit windy, so she put it in a plait,

00:01:22.440 like, impromptu, herself. That's all over the front pages today. Important stuff. Important

00:01:32.040 stuff. Okay. Labour's pub rescue. Fallout. Half measures. Cut in business rates and World

00:01:40.480 Cup opening boost. But landlords say it is not enough to save them. Well, yeah, so the government

00:01:47.100 put up business rates, just how much it costs to sort of own a business physically. And

00:01:53.420 then they cut it a bit for a couple of years for pubs. This is the story. But not loads

00:02:00.060 of other hospitality things like restaurants and cafes and hotels and things. But for pubs.

00:02:05.760 they're saying that even that's not enough. I mean, it is a bit like, you know, you tax

00:02:11.360 someone a massive amount and then at the last minute drop it down a little bit and go, there

00:02:16.080 you go. Be grateful. Like, no. No, that's not right. That's not how it works. That's not

00:02:22.320 fair. Who do you think you're kidding with that? But there you go. She has decided to give

00:02:30.600 a little bit of relief for a little while, frozen for two years, I think it was, just

00:02:36.700 to pubs. But even that, even given that, they're saying loads and loads of pubs will

00:02:41.800 still close. And as for the rest of the hospitality industry, which is already taxed up the wazoo,

00:02:49.200 yeah, it's going to be like disastrous. Because a lot of these places, most business, most small

00:02:53.960 businesses, in fact, of any strap, the margins will be tiny. Your profits will be very small

00:03:00.860 with the best one in the world. So any sort of tax hike or rates hike or anything like

00:03:06.820 that could be the difference between you going out of business or not. They want to destroy

00:03:12.200 the high street. They do. It's very, very clear to me. Very, very obvious. Particularly pubs,

00:03:16.240 if anything, despite these half measures. Yeah, it's mad, isn't it? Socialists hate

00:03:25.120 sort of small businesses, medium businesses. They hate small businesses. They hate people

00:03:30.140 owning anything, really. The state should own everything in their mind, in their world,

00:03:34.960 in their ideal world. Even sort of wishy-washy, wishy-washy pinkos. They still think that.

00:03:42.160 It's still part of their sort of core world view, is that any real ownership, private

00:03:48.020 ownership is bad. You know the old thing. It's almost a trope, isn't it? It's almost

00:03:50.920 a cliche that the left say. You'll own nothing. Yeah, that's what leftists want. The state

00:03:57.420 owns everything, including you and your children. They own you, right? They can move you around

00:04:04.120 as they see fit. Because they've all got some sort of Mao complex. Some sort of Stalin complex.

00:04:12.980 Leftists. So gross. The eye paper. Let's move on. The eye paper.

00:04:17.180 Pubs U-turn to save Britain's locals, local pubs, from extinction, but no help for restaurants

00:04:22.440 facing April tax hikes. Yeah. The eye paper's quite good. On the front page, they give you

00:04:26.980 an extra little bit of blurb, which really covers all the main points of the story. So I'll

00:04:30.780 quickly read this. Reeves gives pubs and music venues 15% off their business rates. The business

00:04:36.820 rate's already through the roof, thanks to them. So it's not being particularly magnanimous

00:04:43.320 or like really generous, really. Oh, I'll steal £100 out of your pocket and give you £15

00:04:49.280 back. Oh, thanks. Okay. So for, and music venues, 15% off their business rates, which will

00:04:57.780 then be frozen for two years, not very long, to save, quote, huge community assets, quote.

00:05:02.640 It probably won't save them though. And it's deliberate. It's by design. But she risks backlash

00:05:08.200 from other hospitality firms, such as hotels, restaurants and cafes, which are excluded from

00:05:14.240 the temporary extra support. Diners and travellers expected to face price increases, just the customer,

00:05:20.540 for food and drink and hotel rooms to offset higher property taxes coming in April. Yeah.

00:05:26.980 So if you're like a small business and they do this, the only way you could cover it often,

00:05:31.100 not always, but often, the only way they can cover it is just simply charge the customer

00:05:35.360 more. Then that was likely, isn't it? To make less people patronise you. Come and use your

00:05:45.380 services and buy your things. Because it's more expensive, so less people do it. So your

00:05:50.620 profits still go down anyway. Labor MP, Rachel Maskell, says that many small businesses still

00:06:01.020 face closure. Well, yeah. When your profits are tiny, any little thing will destroy you.

00:06:08.260 Okay. The Daily Mail. Daily Mail. There's a picture of what? Nicole Kidman and Anna Winter

00:06:15.240 there. If any of you are aware of who Anna Winter is, she's like the most important person

00:06:22.040 at Vogue magazine. I think she's gross on every single level. Gross human being. Something

00:06:34.200 that's an indication, a symptom of what's wrong with the world, Anna Winter. And yet she

00:06:39.440 sort of is royalty in fashion circles. She's sort of the most important, most powerful person

00:06:45.580 in fashion.

00:06:52.520 Reeves puts nail in coffin of High Street and sends a junior, a junior minister, to Commons

00:06:58.320 to reveal betrayal of pubs, hotels and small shops. So yeah, Rachel Thieves, Rachel of

00:07:04.380 Accounts, didn't even have the bottle to turn up to Parliament and tell them herself. She

00:07:10.720 just sent some little minion off to do it instead. That Rachel Reeves. She's mental. I think she's

00:07:20.160 like a bit mental. She's certainly not a financial wizard, is she? She's not an economist. I don't

00:07:29.560 think she really knows anything. I wonder if, it would be interesting to see if a true economist,

00:07:35.340 you know, a professor of like political economy quizzed her about things, sort of 101 stuff,

00:07:42.520 undergrad level economics. I'd love to see that. I wonder how well she would do. I suspect

00:07:48.320 she'd do terribly. I think she's just a career politician, who quite literally used to like

00:07:53.580 be HR or something, or accounts or something. And was sort of hand-picked, because she's

00:08:00.840 a woman, to be the Chancellor. I don't think she's steeped in political economy. I really

00:08:05.840 don't.

00:08:06.640 All right. The Times, the venerable Times. Fake jobs for sale to cheat system on migrant

00:08:13.080 visas. Yeah, like this is new. I always find that odd when, I remember Jacob Reesman,

00:08:18.320 a few years back on GB News, an investigative journalist there did a piece all about how

00:08:24.460 there's still loads of rape and grooming gangs. And this is like in the early 2020s at some

00:08:29.600 point. I think Rees-Mogg was still an MP at that point. And Jacob Rees-Mogg was all like

00:08:34.340 feigning that he didn't know. Oh, really? It's still going on, is it? Oh, I thought...

00:08:39.320 Yeah. Everyone that's not living under a rock. Anyone who's not feigning ignorance knows.

00:08:50.780 Same with these fake job scams. Yeah. Migrants, illegal migrants, get like, fiddle the book,

00:08:57.840 fiddle things, so that they get visas. Yeah. Okay, it says, agents charge... Agents? Organised

00:09:06.240 criminals, you mean. Like these three gentlemen here. Agents. Agents charge up to £20,000.

00:09:12.380 £20,000 sterling. A shed load of money. For non-existent, quote, skilled, quote, roles

00:09:20.440 as genuine firms to full home office. Yeah.

00:09:25.040 It makes you think, doesn't it, that these asylum seekers, some people like to describe

00:09:33.900 them as refugees, they've got £20,000 to spend. Really? The vast majority of normal

00:09:41.760 people, they're showing a good wage, or you're independently wealthy, you're inherited or

00:09:46.760 something. Most people haven't got £20,000. Just liquid, just in your account, ready to

00:09:51.840 rock and roll. It's like the people, they pay to get themselves smuggled across from Calais,

00:09:57.780 like a few grand. So you're not poor. So not only are you not actually fleeing a war zone

00:10:05.360 or anything, you're not actually a refugee, or someone seeking asylum, or anything like

00:10:12.040 that. You've actually got money. You've already got money. You've got £20,000. Say you come

00:10:16.980 over from wherever, wherever it is. Pakistan, Nigeria, Syria, whatever. And you've already

00:10:23.400 got thousands, if not tens of thousands of pounds. Why are you coming here? Why are you

00:10:31.980 coming here then? It's very odd, isn't it? If you're already wealthy, essentially. Certainly

00:10:38.640 if you come from, like, a third world country. If you come from, I don't know, somewhere like

00:10:44.200 Bangladesh, or whatever. Syria. And you've got £20,000 liquid sitting in a bank account.

00:10:53.640 You're actually reasonably wealthy. Why would you come here then? What, to get an Uber job?

00:11:00.640 To work in Sainsbury's, stacking shelves. Oh no, it's because you're actually part of

00:11:07.520 an organised crime, isn't it? And you're going to do drugs, and people smuggling stuff. You

00:11:14.080 buy yourself a tricked out Merc with black darkened windows. One of them. Mad. Fake jobs for

00:11:23.640 so. Ooh, yeah. Yeah, like it's breaking news. Come on. Come on. The Daily Express. Oh, it's

00:11:32.080 a good paper. 350 migrants arrive, but only 281 leave under Starmer's French deal disaster.

00:11:41.840 Quelle totale farce. It's a total farce. So this is the story. There's the lovely Princess

00:11:47.160 of Wales again. Isn't she radiant? I shouldn't simp over her. It's tongue in cheek. I mean,

00:11:56.080 she's pretty, but that's, I'm being tongue in cheek whenever I sing her praises. That's

00:11:59.780 what the papers always do. She's the most beautiful thing ever. She's the most wonderful person

00:12:03.920 ever. She literally can't do any wrong. Someone did a joke the other day. I can't remember

00:12:08.880 where I heard it or saw it. But they said, if she, like, killed a puppy, she crushed a puppy,

00:12:14.700 the papers would be like, wonderful Kate helps puppy into heaven. That's what they would go

00:12:22.260 with. Okay. She braided her hair. Look. Scoop. Top scoop. Yeah. So this story though, back

00:12:28.700 to being serious. Starmer's flagship plan, the policy, wasn't it, is that we would send immigrants

00:12:37.460 that come over, the boat people, the actual boat invaders down at the Channel. He would send

00:12:42.600 them back to France, but France would send us one of their sort of migrant people in a

00:12:54.960 one-for-one exchange swap. How that helps, how that benefits us in any way, how that really

00:12:59.980 makes any sense, how that's in the nativist interest in any way, doesn't add up. Nonetheless,

00:13:06.120 despite all of that, even that is resulting in a net increase of migrants to us. So under that

00:13:13.800 scheme, says there, we sent 350 of these people back to France, expecting 350 of them back. Oh no,

00:13:23.720 sorry, we sent 280, we sent 280 over to France, expecting 281 back from them. So the numbers stay

00:13:31.580 exactly the same. Pointless, absolutely pointless. But even that, France sent us 350 for our 281.

00:13:42.040 So we just got more then anyway. So, I mean, what the F? Harry, can we go to disdain cam 1?

00:13:57.860 What the F? Yeah, I'm calling that camera disdain cam. The disdain cam.

00:14:09.320 It's mad, it's mad. Everything they do, everything they do results in us being invaded by more foreign

00:14:17.100 people. Isn't it? That's a statement of fact, is it not? Okay. The Telegraph, the Daily

00:14:27.480 Toregraph. Oh, here's a story. Oh my God. Before we get into it, there's another image of the

00:14:33.940 Princess of Wales.

00:14:38.940 Okay, a serious story. Starmer-led, quote, witch hunt, quote, against Iraq veterans.

00:14:45.480 PM's, a human rights case, opened door to hundreds of soldiers being prosecuted.

00:14:54.940 So this is a story. Just one more example of where Sir Queer Stalin acted as a traitor to the people,

00:15:07.680 acted as much as he could against the interests of the nation.

00:15:14.760 Going years back, this is. Right, let's get into it. In fact, I saw a decent segment by Patrick

00:15:20.000 Christies off of GB News. He's my favourite there. He's my favourite GB News dude. Patrick

00:15:28.100 Christies. He did a good bit. And, okay, what it is, going back years, like to like 2007,

00:15:34.780 Starmer was prosecuting our soldiers, our boys, for shootings they did in Iraq. One example

00:15:44.540 is that this one particular bloke, a soldier, a British soldier, in Basra in 2003, during

00:15:51.780 George W. Bush and Tony Blair's invasion of Iraq in 2003. He was ordered to sort of enter

00:15:58.900 a building. You know, we were liberating, quote, unquote, Basra in southern Iraq. And,

00:16:04.780 he was ordered to enter a building. There was a guy in there with an AK-47, like pointing

00:16:09.780 at him. He was trained to, and it's his job to then fire on that person, which he did and

00:16:14.540 killed him.

00:16:15.540 It's a war. And the guy had an AK-47. This is just one story, by the way, of many. And

00:16:26.300 then he was put up on trial. There was an investigation, because there would usually be an investigation

00:16:29.980 into any sort of shooting. And he was put on, there was like multiple investigations, I

00:16:35.120 think five different investigations, two of which sort of went to trial. And he was found

00:16:39.760 innocent. He was found that it was like a lawful thing. It was a lawful killing. Okay, twice.

00:16:46.760 Then Keir Starmer opens it up again, starts it up again. The guy, this one particular guy,

00:16:54.760 is then hounded for like 10 years, the next 10 years after that. Eventually exonerated

00:17:03.080 of doing anything wrong.

00:17:05.760 Okay, so that's just one example. But that opened the door, as it says there, opened the

00:17:10.940 door, you know, sets a legal precedent that loads and loads of other people in very, very

00:17:16.760 soldiers, in very, very similar situations, can be prosecuted. I.e., to put it another way,

00:17:24.160 just completely undermining us and our efforts. And like, what was your... Another detail, which

00:17:32.760 was infuriating, is that he did it free of charge. No charge. Because there's this thing,

00:17:44.760 he was, he was the head of the CPS, right, the Crown Prosecution Service. Queer Starling

00:17:49.760 was. And before that, he was just a lawyer, a prosecutor, you know, a senior one, you know,

00:17:55.760 he's had a stellar career. You know, he did things like, oh, I don't know, went to the European

00:18:00.760 courts and argued in favour of Hizbut Tahrir, an Islamist terrorist organisation that previous

00:18:07.760 governments had, had, um, prescribed. And he argued in Europe that they, that, that prescription

00:18:14.760 should be lifted. Brilliant. Cheers, cheers, Sakir. Thanks for that. You know, argue in favour

00:18:22.760 Al-Qaeda people and IRA terrorists. Sure. Why not? Why not? Um, and there's this thing

00:18:31.760 called the, the cab rank rule. You know, like a, a cab rank of taxis. They all line up.

00:18:35.760 The taxis line up. And whoever wants a taxi, always, you have to go to the, the front one,

00:18:40.760 the front taxi. And that's what you get. And then they all shuffle up. And the next person

00:18:44.760 comes in. So, in other words, if you're the taxi driver, you don't get to pick. You just

00:18:48.760 wait in line until it's your turn to get a customer and you don't pick the customer.

00:18:52.760 Right? There's the cab rank rule. They say that about lawyers, right? Often, often lawyers

00:18:57.760 for the Crown Prosecution Service, state lawyers, prosecutors, defenders and stuff. They say

00:19:02.760 it's a cab rank rule. I don't get to pick and choose who I defend. Don't blame me for defending

00:19:07.760 an Al-Qaeda suspect. It's the cab rank rule. It gets given to me. I've got no choice. Not

00:19:13.760 always. Not in this case. Starmer chose to do this for free. What are you doing, mate?

00:19:24.760 What do you think you're doing? What are you thinking? Well, what he's thinking is anything

00:19:29.760 that undermines Britain, really. He hates Britain. Hates us. Hates soldiers. Hates the national

00:19:37.760 project on every level. That's what he's thinking. That's who he is. And that was Prime Minister

00:19:49.760 in China making deals with the Chinese. Brilliant. Allowing them to have a super embassy and all

00:19:56.760 that stuff. I mean, if it's not clear, like, who Sir Keir Starmer is at this point. A terrible,

00:20:07.760 a terrible man. A terrible person. And sort of obnoxious as well on top of everything else.

00:20:15.760 Right? Like Tony Blair, the Dark Lord. As evil as he is. And I really, I reserve that

00:20:22.760 word. Evil. But I truly think he is. At least, at least he's not sort of like really, really,

00:20:30.760 really annoying. You know? You know there's certain people who are just, they're just obnoxious

00:20:36.760 within moments of hearing them speak and seeing them. But Tony Blair hasn't got that, has

00:20:41.760 he? But Starmer. There's something about him. Alright, what else have we got? Let's have

00:20:52.760 a look at the Guardian. Just stay in camp. The Guardian. Gross. Makes me want to throw up. The Guardian.

00:21:10.760 The Guardian. Mass murder. Quote, it's mass murder. Medics reveal grim reality of Iran's

00:21:16.760 hidden death toll. This is an interesting front page. The fact that it's in the Guardian.

00:21:20.760 Because of course the Guardian, anyone doesn't know. Like I don't make it perfect clear every

00:21:23.760 single day. They're the most, they're the most leftist, aren't they? I mean, maybe the

00:21:29.760 Metro is worse, but probably not actually. The Guardian is sort of the most leftist. The most

00:21:32.760 subversive. The most globalist. The most sort of race communist. The most sort of anti-white,

00:21:38.760 anti-western, all of it is the Guardian, right? But yet the Guardian, though, not very often

00:21:45.760 pro-Islam, because it's anti-western, anti-British. Even the Guardian are running with the headline

00:21:52.760 that there were in fact a massive death toll in the Iranian protests recently. There you

00:21:58.760 go. Deaths estimated to exceed 30,000 after surge in regime brutality. That's the Guardian

00:22:07.760 saying it. Like they've suddenly had a change of mind. They're suddenly like really pro-Pentagon

00:22:17.760 hawkishness intervention. They're not. Of course they're not. That's not what's going on here.

00:22:20.760 That's not the case. They've decided, if I did an editorial decision, that that is true,

00:22:25.760 that that is accurate reporting. Whether it is or not, I don't know. But the Guardian

00:22:30.760 are going with that. Interesting. I mean, I remember, what, like a week ago or more, even

00:22:35.760 the regime themselves admitted that something on the order of 2,000, or was it 3,000? A good

00:22:41.760 couple of 1,000 had been killed in the protests. That's the regime themselves. So, there's

00:22:48.760 no doubt that it's on the order of 1,000. At the very least, low 1,000. The Guardian, and

00:22:56.760 I've seen it in other places at the moment, today in the news, that it's 30,000. That is,

00:23:04.760 of course, obviously, goes without saying, a giant number, isn't it? I mean, it was what

00:23:11.760 Trump had warned the Ayatollah not to do, wasn't it? You know, Trump and State Department

00:23:19.760 could probably turn a blind eye to a few dozen, even a few hundred. If you're doing thousands,

00:23:26.760 tens of thousands, it's exactly what Trump said, don't do, otherwise we'll get involved. And

00:23:33.760 there is a carrier group heading to the Gulf of Oman. The USS Abraham Lincoln carrier

00:23:43.760 group is steaming its way to the shores just off of Iran, as we speak. There you go. There

00:23:58.760 you go. I shouldn't laugh really. It's a nervous laugh, that one. That was a nervous laugh.

00:24:05.760 I mean, watch this space. Will, will Hegseth, will Trump give Hegseth the nod? Hegseth comes

00:24:15.760 to Trump. We've got five plans, sir. One's like carpet bombing, one's dropping the big one on

00:24:21.760 Tehran. And everything's down to like one Tomahawk cruise missile in the desert somewhere. We've

00:24:30.760 got 15 plans. We've got 15 plans, sir. What are you going to do? Trump languidly casts an eye

00:24:38.760 over them. That one, go. We'll see. OK. PM realistic on threats ahead of trip to China. Is he? Is he

00:24:51.760 realistic? Or is he just completely their poodle, their puppet? What do you mean realistic? Is it

00:24:57.760 it? Government row over plan to cut PE spending. Now you might think, what does PE stand for?

00:25:06.760 Is that something, something highfalutin, some big sort of, a shorthand for some big economic set

00:25:17.760 of structures or something? No, no. It's PE in school, physical education. PE. I don't think

00:25:22.760 Americans call it PE, do they? They call it something else? PT, physical training maybe?

00:25:28.760 Anyway, in Britain everyone knows what PE, PE lessons in school. Government wants to cut

00:25:33.760 all of that. That article says that they've got plans. It's not happening immediately, but

00:25:39.760 they've got plans to just not give schools any money. Any. For PE. I guess they want kids

00:25:51.760 sort of, sort of, fat and unhealthy. So that they live in the pod and eat the bugs, and whatever.

00:25:58.760 And become lethargic and docile. I mean, why would you cut PE? Come on. Come on. Miss government.

00:26:09.760 Alright, the FT, the Financial Times. OK. On guard, tensions grip Minneapolis. I mean, kinda, not really.

00:26:20.760 Although Trump is reacting to it in various ways. We'll see that as we go through the hour.

00:26:25.760 Trump is sort of taking the thing seriously. He didn't like, he really didn't like the optics

00:26:29.760 of that Alex Preti killing. I get it. When his dead body slumped to the snow, both his hands were empty.

00:26:39.760 OK. Washington links Ukraine's security guarantee to territorial concessions.

00:26:46.760 It's a roundabout way of saying, wait, Zelensky, you've got to give up land. If there's ever going to be peace, you've got to give up land.

00:26:52.760 You've got to give up some part of Ukraine. OK.

00:26:58.760 US accused of strong arming Kiev. Pledges tied to Donbass pullout. Doubt over Trump's commitment.

00:27:06.760 So, we've got a poll. We try and do a poll daily now, don't we? At least one.

00:27:10.760 And I instructed little Harry, who isn't that little by the way.

00:27:16.760 He's just littler than Harry Robinson. The giant. The office giant.

00:27:20.760 I instructed little Harry to do a poll about Ukraine. What you guys think.

00:27:28.760 And I'll read that out. Read the results that out when I finish the front pages.

00:27:33.760 I asked him to put something like, do you think Ukraine should siege territory in order to have a peace?

00:27:40.760 So, I'll let you know the results of that in a little bit, in a minute.

00:27:45.760 Alright. Let's see. The sun. The sun's particularly sloppy this morning. Even for the sun.

00:27:53.760 So, there we've got Kate. Oh, look. See? There was her hair with her hair down.

00:27:59.760 But then it got windy and she quickly did a plait.

00:28:03.760 OK. Jordan, Katie Price's husband, is a lying swindler, claims two former lovers.

00:28:08.760 Run for the hills, Katie.

00:28:11.760 That's the front page.

00:28:15.760 That's news in Britain. The Daily Star.

00:28:20.760 And they're off abroad, away at the races.

00:28:25.760 Almost speechless at the level of journalism, really.

00:28:29.760 They're doing, the Star Paper themselves, doing some sort of holiday giveaway thing.

00:28:35.760 And they've put that on their front page.

00:28:39.760 Slop. Pure slop. OK. The Metro.

00:28:42.760 Sickening. Sickening, the Metro.

00:28:53.760 Absolutely revolting.

00:28:55.760 Stomach turning.

00:28:57.760 NHS investigation launched.

00:28:59.760 Six years of chemo when I only needed six months.

00:29:02.760 Again, an individual story. This woman, this poor woman who got cancer.

00:29:07.760 You know, it's not like, I haven't got sympathy for her individual case.

00:29:11.760 But she needed six months worth of chemo and they gave her six years worth.

00:29:15.760 Terrible, horrible story.

00:29:17.760 It's not front page news. It's not a national story.

00:29:20.760 So, not even front page.

00:29:22.760 Sorry, not even like eighth, tenth page.

00:29:25.760 Certainly not the front page.

00:29:26.760 There you go. That's the Metro. That's the Metro.

00:29:28.760 One of the worst papers, arguably the worst paper in the land.

00:29:32.760 Alright, let's have a look at our poll then.

00:29:35.760 Harry, could you bring that up on the screen for me?

00:29:38.760 So you wrote, should Ukraine cede territory for peace?

00:29:43.760 Boom. 77% of you say yes.

00:29:46.760 Which is my feeling.

00:29:48.760 Not that I haven't got sympathy for Ukraine.

00:29:50.760 I've got no sympathy for the Zelensky government.

00:29:54.760 But I've got loads of sympathy for the Ukrainian people.

00:29:58.760 Like the individual conscripts and civilians of Ukraine.

00:30:04.760 That are killed and maimed in all of this.

00:30:06.760 I've got loads of sympathy for them, of course.

00:30:08.760 I'm not a monster.

00:30:11.760 Then there is battlefield reality, isn't there?

00:30:14.760 The battlefield reality that the Red Army.

00:30:17.760 Well, that's a bit anachronistic, is it?

00:30:19.760 That's a bit old hat.

00:30:20.760 It's not the Red Army. Sorry.

00:30:21.760 The Russian army.

00:30:23.760 Have got control of the regions they want to have control of.

00:30:27.760 And don't look like it's possible.

00:30:29.760 Even with hundreds of billions of pounds of aid.

00:30:32.760 It doesn't look possible that the Ukrainians can push them out of that.

00:30:35.760 So that's the battlefield reality.

00:30:37.760 How many years has it got to go on?

00:30:39.760 How many need to die?

00:30:41.760 Okay, can you bring that?

00:30:43.760 It's disappeared, Harry. Can you bring it up again?

00:30:45.760 Because I didn't see the other numbers.

00:30:47.760 Like who said, not sure.

00:30:49.760 So it's 77%.

00:30:51.760 Oh, there we go.

00:30:52.760 77% say, yes, Ukraine should seize territory for peace in order to get a peace.

00:30:58.760 16% said, not sure.

00:31:00.760 And only 7% of you said no.

00:31:06.760 I mean, again, I'm pretty much in harmony, essentially, mostly, with my own audience.

00:31:12.760 We agree.

00:31:13.760 It's just being realistic.

00:31:15.760 It's not that...

00:31:16.760 When I've said this before, and I've said this for a long time, actually, that take,

00:31:18.760 on the main podcast of The Lotuses and stuff,

00:31:20.760 quite often people will say,

00:31:22.760 are you taking money from the Kremlin?

00:31:25.760 Why are you so pro-Russian?

00:31:27.760 Why do you love Putin so much?

00:31:29.760 It's nothing of the sort.

00:31:31.760 It really isn't.

00:31:33.760 I've said it a number of times.

00:31:35.760 I think Putin's a murderous, ruthless, SOB.

00:31:43.760 I'm just talking about the battlefield reality in the Donbass.

00:31:48.760 I remember, I think it was the second summer.

00:31:51.760 I think it was the second summer of this war.

00:31:53.760 And there was meant to be this big push, a big offensive, via Ukraine.

00:31:57.760 where they'd already had billions and billions of dollars in aid and loads and loads of hardware.

00:32:03.760 The US and other Western European countries have sent them all sorts of artillery pieces

00:32:07.760 and advisers to help them to use it right and all sorts of extra surplus tanks and all sorts of stuff.

00:32:14.760 Loads and loads of material and money.

00:32:16.760 And there was going to be this big summer push.

00:32:18.760 Ukraine had got ready for it all through the winter and the spring.

00:32:21.760 It was this big summer offensive.

00:32:23.760 It came to absolutely nothing.

00:32:26.760 It came to absolutely nothing.

00:32:28.760 It was at that point, I was like...

00:32:31.760 You're probably not...

00:32:36.760 You know, that was the time...

00:32:38.760 You're probably not going to be able to push Putin's legions out of the Donbass.

00:32:42.760 Anyway, alright, let's move on.

00:32:44.760 That's 77% if you agree with me.

00:32:46.760 So...

00:32:47.760 Good.

00:32:48.760 Okay, the websites.

00:32:50.760 Let's have a look at the websites.

00:32:52.760 BBC.

00:32:53.760 They go with weirdo Stalin.

00:32:56.760 Heads to Beijing with business leaders as UK seeks to reboot China relationship.

00:33:01.760 Yeah, reboot it where we become even more subservient.

00:33:06.760 Trump says government will de-escalate in Minnesota following a Preti shooting.

00:33:13.760 Yeah, so Trump's reaction to it has actually been sort of conciliatory and contrite.

00:33:19.760 It's like he seems to be a little bit upset even.

00:33:23.760 Ever so slightly shaken, dare I say.

00:33:25.760 Not exactly shaken.

00:33:26.760 The Donald doesn't really get shaken.

00:33:28.760 But he certainly reacted to it.

00:33:30.760 You know, come out and said a number of times a number of different ways.

00:33:33.760 Like, that's not good.

00:33:35.760 That's not what I intended.

00:33:36.760 I don't want to see that.

00:33:38.760 You know?

00:33:39.760 I mean, some people, people with Trump derangement syndrome and people on the left and Democrats

00:33:46.760 and all that, they're saying, this is the end of Trump.

00:33:48.760 This undermines Trump for all time.

00:33:50.760 This is the stain that he'll be remembered for in history.

00:33:53.760 No, I don't think so.

00:33:55.760 Nothing like that.

00:33:56.760 You know, that's unrealistic.

00:33:57.760 But, it's not nothing.

00:34:00.760 Even though it's an individual shooting.

00:34:03.760 Politically, it's not nothing.

00:34:05.760 And Trump is reacting to it.

00:34:08.760 You know, when he got rid of that Bovino, Greg Bovino, and he sent big Tom Homan down there

00:34:14.760 to sort of troubleshoot, put fires out.

00:34:17.760 Send in the big guns.

00:34:24.760 The big beasts.

00:34:27.760 Okay.

00:34:28.760 Minnesota Congresswoman Ilhan Omar attacked with unknown liquid during town hall.

00:34:34.760 So, I saw this.

00:34:35.760 I thought, oh, let me meet.

00:34:37.760 Okay, let's start.

00:34:38.760 I despise Ilhan Omar.

00:34:42.760 But, even her, I wouldn't want to see physically attacked.

00:34:45.760 Certainly not like sprayed with acid or anything.

00:34:47.760 No way.

00:34:48.760 No way.

00:34:49.760 But, it wasn't.

00:34:50.760 It doesn't seem to have been acid.

00:34:51.760 I mean, the story's not that old.

00:34:54.760 But, so, what happened was this guy, a member of the public, came out of nowhere.

00:34:59.760 Well, she was doing a little town hall.

00:35:00.760 A little meeting to a few dozen people.

00:35:02.760 This guy sort of comes out of the crack, comes out of nowhere.

00:35:05.760 And he squirts a little bit of liquid at her.

00:35:07.760 I saw one report said he had a syringe.

00:35:09.760 Anyway, you can see, like, it's only a small amount of liquid.

00:35:12.760 It's not like a whole cup's worth of liquid or anything.

00:35:14.760 It's a relatively small amount of liquid.

00:35:16.760 And he either chucks it at her or squirts it at her.

00:35:18.760 And it doesn't hit her in the face or anything.

00:35:20.760 And that's it.

00:35:22.760 And she was completely unhurt.

00:35:24.760 And someone, like, he didn't touch her physically.

00:35:27.760 One of the security guards there immediately bundles him to the ground.

00:35:31.760 And the incident effectively is over.

00:35:34.760 And, yeah, she was completely unharmed.

00:35:36.760 So, in one sense, you could say it's sort of nothing.

00:35:41.760 It's a complete nothing burger.

00:35:43.760 On another level, you could say, you know, it's not good.

00:35:46.760 That could have been acid.

00:35:48.760 It could have hit her in the face.

00:35:50.760 You know?

00:35:51.760 Like, that could have been just one more episode in the escalation of political violence in the United States or in the West.

00:36:02.760 Not good, right?

00:36:03.760 I don't want that.

00:36:04.760 No one really wants that, do they?

00:36:06.760 So, there you go.

00:36:07.760 That happened.

00:36:08.760 That happened.

00:36:09.760 That happened.

00:36:10.760 So, that's a thing.

00:36:11.760 In the world.

00:36:12.760 All right.

00:36:13.760 That storm that's going to hit Britain is still a story.

00:36:15.760 Storm Chandra.

00:36:16.760 Well, it's actually happening, you know.

00:36:17.760 Like, heavy rain and flooding has disrupted travel across the UK.

00:36:21.760 We're a relatively low-lying island.

00:36:25.760 It doesn't take much, does it, for flooding to occur?

00:36:28.760 It really doesn't, you know.

00:36:30.760 We're not as bad as Holland, but...

00:36:34.760 Our elevation above sea level isn't that high.

00:36:40.760 If Greta is right, and Al Gore are right, and sea levels rise by metres,

00:36:48.760 But if that did happen, loads of Britain would be underwater.

00:36:50.760 Yeah.

00:36:51.760 Loads.

00:36:52.760 Like, the Thames Valley would all be underwater.

00:36:53.760 We'd have to change the...

00:36:54.760 Move the capital to Birmingham or something.

00:36:57.760 Okay.

00:36:58.760 What else we got?

00:36:59.760 Let's have a look at another website.

00:37:00.760 ITV.

00:37:01.760 ITV News.

00:37:02.760 Oh, the storm.

00:37:03.760 Some trees fell over.

00:37:06.760 Starmer to promote a consistent relationship with China on visit.

00:37:11.760 Yeah, that we're consistently their bitch.

00:37:15.760 That made Harry laugh.

00:37:17.760 What else?

00:37:21.760 What else?

00:37:22.760 Yeah, like Trump.

00:37:23.760 Trump wants honest investigation into pretty killing as Melania urges unity.

00:37:29.760 Are the Minneapolis killings a turning point at the Trump White House?

00:37:34.760 Andy Burnham says, quote,

00:37:37.760 It's simply untrue, quote, that he knew he'd be blocked from by-election.

00:37:42.760 Okay, fair enough.

00:37:45.760 Probably should have known though.

00:37:47.760 I mean, that's all very well, but got a little bit of egg on your face there, Andy.

00:37:53.760 It's like you went for it.

00:37:55.760 You tried to...

00:37:56.760 You tried to start the process of making yourself Prime Minister.

00:38:01.760 And it failed at the first hurdle, basically.

00:38:05.760 A little bit embarrassing politically.

00:38:07.760 I mean...

00:38:10.760 There you go, alright.

00:38:11.760 Don't shed a tear for Andy Burnham's career.

00:38:13.760 He's a douchebag.

00:38:16.760 Sky News.

00:38:17.760 Sky News.

00:38:18.760 Starmer quizzed over Burnham as he heads to China.

00:38:22.760 Okay.

00:38:23.760 Was there anything actually particularly interesting on Sky News?

00:38:25.760 Oh, yeah.

00:38:26.760 Farage and Polanski analysis.

00:38:29.760 Farage and Polanski could both inflict huge damage on Labour.

00:38:34.760 Yeah, I think so, yeah.

00:38:35.760 Politics is becoming polarised, isn't it, in the 2020s.

00:38:40.760 Across the world.

00:38:42.760 Certainly in the West.

00:38:44.760 All places like Germany, Holland, France, Britain, the US.

00:38:50.760 The centre ground is losing.

00:38:55.760 People are going either to the right or to the left.

00:38:57.760 Because we tried the centre ground, didn't we?

00:38:59.760 We tried that.

00:39:00.760 We tried being reasonable.

00:39:02.760 Tried being centrist dads.

00:39:04.760 We tried saying, just let us grill, bro.

00:39:07.760 That didn't work.

00:39:08.760 The left didn't let us do that.

00:39:10.760 The left not happy with that.

00:39:12.760 So here we are with polarisation.

00:39:13.760 Blame the left for it.

00:39:14.760 It's nearly always the way in history.

00:39:16.760 Nearly always the way.

00:39:20.760 That it was the leftists.

00:39:22.760 It was the communists.

00:39:23.760 And the Marxist-Leninists.

00:39:26.760 Etc.

00:39:27.760 And their pinko allies.

00:39:30.760 That won't let you be a centrist.

00:39:33.760 They won't leave you alone.

00:39:36.760 So there you go.

00:39:37.760 There we go. Brilliant.

00:39:38.760 Just another cycle of that.

00:39:41.760 Thank you.

00:39:42.760 Okay, here's a story.

00:39:44.760 Again, analysis.

00:39:45.760 Some serious analysis from Sky News.

00:39:49.760 An immense day for the church.

00:39:51.760 The Church of England.

00:39:52.760 The Anglican Church, that is.

00:39:54.760 And it could be just what it needs.

00:39:58.760 This woman.

00:40:00.760 Is now formally, officially.

00:40:01.760 Or is going to be today.

00:40:02.760 Either way.

00:40:04.760 Is.

00:40:05.760 The Archbishop of Canterbury.

00:40:08.760 The highest religious office in the Anglican Church.

00:40:10.760 Well, other than the sovereign, of course.

00:40:14.760 The senior archbishop.

00:40:16.760 The Archbishop of Canterbury.

00:40:17.760 The Archbishop of Canterbury.

00:40:22.760 There you go.

00:40:26.760 I mean, if you just have a look at her physiognomy.

00:40:32.760 You just take a glance.

00:40:35.760 At like her.

00:40:36.760 She looks like Tubbs, doesn't she?

00:40:37.760 From League of Gentlemen.

00:40:39.760 Do you ever watch League of Gentlemen, Harry?

00:40:40.760 Or is that before your time?

00:40:42.760 League of Gentlemen?

00:40:43.760 Yeah, I think that's a little before my time.

00:40:45.760 Yeah.

00:40:46.760 Okay.

00:40:47.760 Okay.

00:40:48.760 Alright.

00:40:49.760 Sorry.

00:40:50.760 Yeah.

00:40:51.760 This freakazoid.

00:40:52.760 Is now.

00:40:53.760 The Archbishop of Canterbury.

00:40:56.760 She's utterly, utterly, utterly woke.

00:40:59.760 To the max.

00:41:01.760 Of course she is.

00:41:02.760 Of course she is.

00:41:04.760 So that's the church now.

00:41:05.760 If you're Church of England.

00:41:06.760 If you're an Anglican.

00:41:07.760 Well done.

00:41:08.760 She's your leader.

00:41:09.760 Now.

00:41:10.760 She's your Il Duce.

00:41:13.760 Going forward.

00:41:16.760 The Anglican Church.

00:41:18.760 The Anglican Church.

00:41:19.760 What an absurd organisation that has become.

00:41:24.760 I wonder what 17th century Anglicans would think of the modern church.

00:41:30.760 I wonder what they would.

00:41:33.760 I wonder what they would think.

00:41:34.760 Alright.

00:41:35.760 The Daily Mail.

00:41:36.760 What's the Daily Mail?

00:41:37.760 The top story is the Ilhan Omar syringe attack.

00:41:40.760 Oh yeah.

00:41:41.760 Look.

00:41:42.760 He has got a syringe there.

00:41:43.760 I saw a clip earlier this morning.

00:41:44.760 But only once.

00:41:45.760 And it was.

00:41:46.760 It's all over in like.

00:41:47.760 A fraction of a second.

00:41:48.760 Or one second.

00:41:49.760 But there you go.

00:41:50.760 Clearly he's got some sort of syringe there.

00:41:52.760 Probably wouldn't squirt water.

00:41:53.760 Would you?

00:41:54.760 Unless it's just.

00:41:55.760 A fake out.

00:41:56.760 Unless it's just to.

00:41:57.760 Seem a lot more.

00:41:58.760 Scary and sinister than it really is.

00:42:00.760 Immediately tackled to the ground.

00:42:02.760 She actually goes up to him with a raised fist.

00:42:04.760 Like she's going to throw a punch.

00:42:06.760 She doesn't.

00:42:07.760 Okay.

00:42:08.760 Man armed with a syringe attack to the Social Democrat Ilhan Omar.

00:42:12.760 As bitter fallout from quote.

00:42:14.760 Execution quote.

00:42:15.760 Of nurse by Ice Rocks America.

00:42:17.760 I wonder what his angle is.

00:42:20.760 Because it's not clear yet.

00:42:21.760 I haven't seen any reports of exactly what he is.

00:42:23.760 Whether he's.

00:42:24.760 I assumed he was sort of of the right.

00:42:27.760 But I've got no idea.

00:42:28.760 He might be super far left.

00:42:30.760 Like even way further left than Ilhan Omar.

00:42:33.760 And he's annoyed at her for not being.

00:42:35.760 Lefty and traitorous enough.

00:42:38.760 Or he might be a pro-Trump MAGA type person.

00:42:40.760 I don't know.

00:42:41.760 A super patriot.

00:42:42.760 I don't know.

00:42:43.760 Really don't know at this point.

00:42:45.760 But Ilhan Omar was unharmed.

00:42:47.760 You'll be pleased to know.

00:42:49.760 Angela Rayner warned Starmer.

00:42:51.760 Must do better.

00:42:52.760 As allies say she's ready to fight West Streeting for number 10.

00:42:55.760 With PM's grip on power loosening.

00:42:58.760 And Burnham shut out.

00:43:00.760 We had the idea that.

00:43:01.760 If.

00:43:02.760 Perhaps at the next local elections.

00:43:04.760 Or.

00:43:05.760 After the by-election in Manchester.

00:43:07.760 Either or.

00:43:08.760 There will eventually be full-blown proper.

00:43:11.760 Sort of leadership.

00:43:12.760 Contests against Sir Keir Starmer.

00:43:14.760 Who.

00:43:15.760 If not Burnham.

00:43:16.760 Will step up to lead that.

00:43:19.760 Step into the breach.

00:43:21.760 A lot of people saying it's the.

00:43:23.760 Health Secretary Wes Streeting.

00:43:25.760 Or Angela Rayner herself.

00:43:30.760 Disgraced.

00:43:32.760 Ginger idiot.

00:43:33.760 Angela Rayner.

00:43:36.760 Maybe Lammy will have a pop.

00:43:38.760 Who knows.

00:43:40.760 All right.

00:43:41.760 Let's have a look at another one.

00:43:43.760 The Express.

00:43:44.760 Oh.

00:43:45.760 They go with top stories about Andrew.

00:43:46.760 Look.

00:43:47.760 He's having a laugh.

00:43:48.760 He's enjoying himself.

00:43:49.760 Andrew back on the market.

00:43:50.760 King Charles will have his head in his hands.

00:43:52.760 Here.

00:43:53.760 Don't care.

00:43:54.760 Don't care.

00:43:55.760 Don't care.

00:43:56.760 Meghan Markle.

00:43:57.760 Don't care.

00:43:58.760 All right.

00:43:59.760 The Sun.

00:44:00.760 Yeah.

00:44:01.760 The Sun's super sloppy.

00:44:02.760 We'll move over this super quickly.

00:44:03.760 Because I know.

00:44:04.760 You.

00:44:05.760 The audience of the Bo Show.

00:44:06.760 Don't really like Slot.

00:44:07.760 But just.

00:44:08.760 Super quick to say then.

00:44:09.760 As quickly as possible really.

00:44:10.760 Run for the hills Jordan.

00:44:12.760 Your new hubby is like.

00:44:14.760 He's a lying swindler.

00:44:18.760 And preys on women.

00:44:19.760 Not my words.

00:44:21.760 Don't sue me.

00:44:22.760 Not my words.

00:44:23.760 That's on the top of the sun there.

00:44:25.760 There.

00:44:26.760 There's been some floods in Britain.

00:44:27.760 Because it rained a bit.

00:44:30.760 Kell Hell.

00:44:32.760 Or.

00:44:33.760 Sorry.

00:44:34.760 Shell Hell.

00:44:35.760 Michelle Keegan.

00:44:36.760 I'm not even sure who she is really.

00:44:37.760 I've heard the name before.

00:44:38.760 But I don't even know what she is.

00:44:40.760 Or what she's famous for exactly.

00:44:42.760 Anyway.

00:44:43.760 Michelle Keegan.

00:44:44.760 Versus Essex Mums.

00:44:45.760 How Freebie Holiday sparked outrage.

00:44:48.760 And why her next move is even more controversial.

00:44:50.760 Could not care less.

00:44:51.760 Couldn't care less.

00:44:52.760 Oh.

00:44:53.760 This dad.

00:44:54.760 He had a fit.

00:44:55.760 He got a filling.

00:44:56.760 At the dentist.

00:44:57.760 And it put him in hospital for a while.

00:45:01.760 Gary Barlow used to be a bit fat.

00:45:05.760 Read all about it.

00:45:06.760 The sun.

00:45:07.760 What a joke.

00:45:09.760 Okay.

00:45:10.760 Let's move on to the United States.

00:45:11.760 Let's hop across the pond.

00:45:12.760 The New York Slimes.

00:45:14.760 Oh.

00:45:15.760 They go with the Ilhan Omar attack.

00:45:17.760 There you go.

00:45:18.760 Have we got the.

00:45:19.760 Show the clip.

00:45:20.760 Will you see the moment of the attack.

00:45:23.760 The very moment.

00:45:24.760 Don't worry about it.

00:45:25.760 It's not that important.

00:45:26.760 It's not spectacular in any way.

00:45:27.760 And again.

00:45:28.760 With all sorts of.

00:45:29.760 All sorts of Minneapolis stories.

00:45:31.760 As you can well imagine.

00:45:32.760 The Washington Post.

00:45:33.760 I had a quick look at the Washington Post this morning.

00:45:35.760 Before the show started.

00:45:36.760 Nothing.

00:45:37.760 It's nothing.

00:45:38.760 There's nothing there.

00:45:39.760 There really isn't.

00:45:41.760 Of like any real note.

00:45:44.760 Like for example.

00:45:45.760 One of their top stories.

00:45:46.760 Is.

00:45:47.760 A rude exchange with staff.

00:45:49.760 Ruined my favourite hostel.

00:45:50.760 Says one opinion piece writer.

00:45:55.760 Let's just move over to Australia.

00:45:56.760 How good.

00:45:58.760 Oh yeah.

00:46:00.760 Australians fed up with immigration levels.

00:46:03.760 Sky News poll reveals.

00:46:04.760 Yeah.

00:46:05.760 I bet they are.

00:46:06.760 Yeah.

00:46:07.760 Because they're further down the road than a lot of other places.

00:46:09.760 Absolutely flooded by.

00:46:12.760 Enemies.

00:46:14.760 Foreign enemies.

00:46:16.760 That mean to destroy the fabric of Australian society.

00:46:20.760 Voters across the political spectrum.

00:46:22.760 Have expressed a desire.

00:46:23.760 For major immigration cuts.

00:46:25.760 With big reductions preferred.

00:46:28.760 Even among left wing voters.

00:46:30.760 And non English speaking households.

00:46:34.760 So everyone.

00:46:35.760 Even.

00:46:36.760 Even like.

00:46:37.760 Second generation immigrants or whatever.

00:46:38.760 Or even first generation.

00:46:39.760 Even.

00:46:40.760 Even lefties.

00:46:41.760 Even champagne socialist types.

00:46:42.760 Are like.

00:46:43.760 Yeah.

00:46:44.760 But it's crazy though.

00:46:45.760 It's all very well to virtue signal.

00:46:47.760 About how nice and good we are.

00:46:49.760 But it's crazy.

00:46:53.760 It's absolutely ridiculous.

00:46:54.760 You've changed Australia.

00:46:55.760 So profoundly.

00:46:56.760 With so much less safe.

00:46:58.760 Apart from anything else.

00:46:59.760 That's what our enemies always say.

00:47:01.760 Oh you just hate brown people.

00:47:03.760 You just can't stand to be around.

00:47:05.760 Near.

00:47:06.760 Or see.

00:47:07.760 People with brown skin.

00:47:08.760 It's a bit more than that.

00:47:09.760 Right.

00:47:10.760 It's that the very fabric of your society.

00:47:12.760 Has been ruined.

00:47:13.760 You don't live in a high trust.

00:47:14.760 Low crime society anymore.

00:47:15.760 When not that long ago you did.

00:47:16.760 Five.

00:47:17.760 Ten.

00:47:18.760 Fifteen years ago you did.

00:47:19.760 And now you don't.

00:47:20.760 That's the real issue.

00:47:22.760 That you can't let women in your family.

00:47:24.760 Go out after dark on their own.

00:47:26.760 Because you can't guarantee.

00:47:28.760 They won't be the victim of a sexual assault.

00:47:30.760 Or whatever.

00:47:34.760 Am I making that up?

00:47:35.760 Is that crazy?

00:47:36.760 Is that a far right fantasy?

00:47:40.760 You know.

00:47:41.760 You know I'm telling the truth.

00:47:42.760 About that.

00:47:46.760 Okay.

00:47:47.760 ABC retracts wild ass agent.

00:47:50.760 Quote murder.

00:47:51.760 Quote claim.

00:47:52.760 By star reporter Laura Tingle.

00:47:54.760 Don't know who Laura Tingle is.

00:47:55.760 Don't care.

00:47:57.760 Top imams demand end to terms like radical Islam.

00:48:00.760 Oh do they?

00:48:01.760 Oh do they?

00:48:02.760 Yeah I bet they do.

00:48:05.760 Do you remember.

00:48:06.760 One of the things that opened my eyes.

00:48:09.760 About Islam.

00:48:10.760 And this is going back years and years now.

00:48:12.760 Is there was.

00:48:13.760 I mean I already knew this.

00:48:15.760 But it really sort of drove it home to me.

00:48:17.760 Years and years ago.

00:48:18.760 There was the story of the Danish cartoons.

00:48:21.760 Do you remember that?

00:48:22.760 It must have been in the very early 2000s.

00:48:24.760 And there was a Danish cartoonist.

00:48:26.760 Who had drawn some.

00:48:28.760 Incendiary images.

00:48:30.760 He.

00:48:31.760 He dared to actually depict.

00:48:33.760 The prophet Muhammad.

00:48:35.760 Blessings be upon his name.

00:48:36.760 He done some drawings.

00:48:37.760 I think maybe did he.

00:48:38.760 Draw a bomb.

00:48:39.760 He drew a picture with Muhammad.

00:48:40.760 Whose hat was a bomb or something.

00:48:41.760 I can't even remember.

00:48:42.760 Anyway.

00:48:43.760 There's loads of protests.

00:48:44.760 All across like the Muslim world and things.

00:48:45.760 And in Europe about it.

00:48:46.760 They were so outraged.

00:48:47.760 And then anyway.

00:48:48.760 After it all died down.

00:48:49.760 And when it was happening.

00:48:50.760 Imams would come out.

00:48:51.760 And be given time on TV.

00:48:52.760 And the Imams would come out.

00:48:53.760 And say.

00:48:54.760 Okay.

00:48:55.760 This is what it is.

00:48:56.760 It's happened.

00:48:57.760 Oh.

00:48:58.760 And some people would die in these protests.

00:48:59.760 As well.

00:49:00.760 The Imams would come out.

00:49:01.760 And say.

00:49:02.760 But let's make sure.

00:49:03.760 The most important point out of all of this.

00:49:04.760 The lesson that everybody.

00:49:05.760 The whole world should learn out of this.

00:49:06.760 Is.

00:49:07.760 Never do it again.

00:49:08.760 Yeah.

00:49:09.760 Your freedom of expression.

00:49:10.760 Is sort of at an end.

00:49:11.760 As far as we're concerned.

00:49:12.760 In our minds.

00:49:13.760 If we had our way.

00:49:14.760 That's the overall meta.

00:49:15.760 And the Imams would come out.

00:49:16.760 And say.

00:49:17.760 Okay.

00:49:18.760 This is what it is.

00:49:19.760 It's happened.

00:49:20.760 Oh.

00:49:21.760 And some people would die in these protests.

00:49:22.760 As well.

00:49:23.760 The Imams would come out and say.

00:49:24.760 But let's make sure.

00:49:25.760 The most important point out of all of this.

00:49:27.760 The lesson that everybody.

00:49:28.760 The whole world should learn out of this.

00:49:29.760 Is.

00:49:30.760 Never do it again.

00:49:31.760 Yeah.

00:49:32.760 Your freedom of expression.

00:49:33.760 Is sort of at an end.

00:49:34.760 As far as we're concerned.

00:49:35.760 In our minds.

00:49:36.760 That's.

00:49:37.760 The overall meta point.

00:49:38.760 About all of this.

00:49:39.760 I remember thinking that.

00:49:41.760 I remember seeing that.

00:49:42.760 And thinking.

00:49:45.760 Really.

00:49:46.760 This is.

00:49:47.760 This is what it is now.

00:49:48.760 This is.

00:49:49.760 The paradigm.

00:49:50.760 This is the deal.

00:49:51.760 Is it?

00:49:54.760 You know.

00:49:55.760 The Charlie Hebdo stuff.

00:49:56.760 The Charlie Hebdo massacre.

00:49:58.760 Lots and lots of Imams.

00:50:02.760 And Islamophiles.

00:50:03.760 One way or another.

00:50:04.760 Whoever they are.

00:50:05.760 It's terrible.

00:50:06.760 We condemn the killing.

00:50:07.760 But let's make sure.

00:50:08.760 But Charlie Hebdo.

00:50:09.760 We're in the wrong though.

00:50:10.760 But Charlie Hebdo.

00:50:11.760 You know.

00:50:12.760 Brought it upon themselves though.

00:50:13.760 Ultimately.

00:50:14.760 And don't do that again.

00:50:15.760 Again.

00:50:16.760 Charlie Hebdo.

00:50:17.760 A French.

00:50:18.760 Paper.

00:50:19.760 If you don't know.

00:50:20.760 French magazine.

00:50:21.760 Satirical magazine.

00:50:22.760 That had dared to print.

00:50:23.760 Similar things.

00:50:24.760 Poking fun.

00:50:25.760 At Islam.

00:50:26.760 And the Prophet.

00:50:27.760 Two guys went in there.

00:50:28.760 With AKs.

00:50:29.760 And killed loads and loads of people.

00:50:33.760 Like yeah.

00:50:34.760 Yeah.

00:50:35.760 We condemn the killings.

00:50:36.760 But.

00:50:37.760 Don't do it again.

00:50:38.760 You did.

00:50:39.760 Bring that on yourself.

00:50:40.760 I mean.

00:50:41.760 Yeah.

00:50:42.760 So.

00:50:43.760 Muslims demand.

00:50:44.760 End to terms.

00:50:45.760 Like radical Islam.

00:50:46.760 Alright.

00:50:47.760 Australia's peak Muslim body.

00:50:48.760 I don't know what peak Muslim body means.

00:50:50.760 Um.

00:50:51.760 Have demanded.

00:50:52.760 An end to terms.

00:50:53.760 Such as radical Islam.

00:50:54.760 And extremist Islam.

00:50:56.760 After former Prime Minister.

00:50:57.760 Scott Morrison.

00:50:58.760 Called for reform.

00:50:59.760 In the wake of the Bondi massacre.

00:51:02.760 Yeah.

00:51:03.760 They.

00:51:04.760 Yeah.

00:51:05.760 That's what it is.

00:51:06.760 That's what we're dealing with.

00:51:07.760 How don't you know that yet.

00:51:08.760 If anyone.

00:51:09.760 I mean.

00:51:10.760 Most of the Bo Show audience.

00:51:11.760 Are aware of all of this already.

00:51:12.760 I'm sure.

00:51:13.760 But.

00:51:14.760 You got a lot of people.

00:51:15.760 With still their head in their sand.

00:51:16.760 A head in the sand.

00:51:18.760 I know people.

00:51:19.760 IRL.

00:51:20.760 Like just normal.

00:51:21.760 Normal.

00:51:22.760 People.

00:51:23.760 That aren't politically aware.

00:51:24.760 Particularly.

00:51:25.760 And they haven't got a bad bone in their body.

00:51:26.760 And you say something like.

00:51:28.760 You mention something like this.

00:51:29.760 I'll talk about.

00:51:30.760 What I just said.

00:51:31.760 About the Danish cartoons.

00:51:32.760 Or Charlie Hebdo.

00:51:33.760 And they're.

00:51:34.760 Quite.

00:51:35.760 Almost literally.

00:51:36.760 Go.

00:51:37.760 No.

00:51:38.760 No.

00:51:39.760 No.

00:51:40.760 No.

00:51:41.760 I don't want to hear.

00:51:42.760 The concerns.

00:51:43.760 The danger.

00:51:44.760 Baked into it all.

00:51:46.760 That we're facing.

00:51:48.760 Particularly because of massive immigration.

00:51:50.760 Because of massive immigration.

00:51:51.760 They've got no choice.

00:51:52.760 But to face at some point.

00:51:54.760 I just don't want to hear it.

00:51:56.760 They just want to.

00:51:57.760 Quite literally sometimes.

00:51:58.760 Like.

00:51:59.760 Just change the subject.

00:52:00.760 You won't be allowed.

00:52:01.760 To change the subject.

00:52:02.760 You won't be allowed to change the subject

00:52:06.460 At a certain point

00:52:07.280 They won't let you change the subject

00:52:10.020 Alright

00:52:13.080 I've only got a few minutes left

00:52:15.060 So shall we quickly flip through

00:52:16.880 There wasn't much in Japan

00:52:18.040 They talk a lot about South Korea in the Japanese news

00:52:20.540 I find interesting

00:52:21.400 Well obviously, they're right next to each other

00:52:23.440 They're essentially neighbours aren't they

00:52:24.680 But like North Korea did some missile tests

00:52:27.980 Where was that?

00:52:30.600 I can't see it

00:52:31.080 North Korea did some missile tests

00:52:32.940 That landed in the Sea of Japan

00:52:34.900 I.e. the sea in between Korea and Japan

00:52:36.680 They did some big tests there

00:52:38.920 But North Korea

00:52:39.620 Just do that from time to time

00:52:41.620 It's a bit provocative, isn't it?

00:52:44.800 Although the South Koreans do relatively provocative

00:52:46.820 Military exercises as well

00:52:50.180 Okay

00:52:52.040 The Chinese news

00:52:54.140 Xinhua

00:52:54.820 The Xinhua Network

00:52:56.480 Same as nearly every other day

00:52:58.960 Pretty bland, ultra-pro-Zhi stories

00:53:03.780 Zhi replies to veterans of Zimbabwe's National Liberation War

00:53:07.560 China's cross-border trips

00:53:09.620 Hit 697 million in 2025

00:53:13.500 Setting high record

00:53:14.700 China's central businesses

00:53:17.900 Like the state-owned enterprises

00:53:20.620 China's central state-owned enterprises

00:53:23.640 Keep research and development spending

00:53:25.860 Above one trillion yuan

00:53:27.240 For four straight years

00:53:29.020 China's Greater Bay Area airport cluster

00:53:32.380 Ranks among top aviation hubs globally in 2025

00:53:35.700 You get the idea

00:53:36.440 It's just an endless slew of

00:53:38.780 We're brilliant, how good are we?

00:53:40.580 There you go

00:53:44.960 China

00:53:46.520 That Starber sees no real difference

00:53:49.600 Between the United States and China

00:53:51.920 They will treat them equally

00:53:53.280 They should be equal partners with us

00:53:55.060 Alright, the Ruskis

00:53:57.620 What the Russians say

00:53:58.780 Zelensky wants to disrupt peace talks

00:54:00.900 With terrorist attacks against civilians

00:54:02.940 Says a diplomat

00:54:04.020 Yeah, it's interesting, isn't it?

00:54:08.100 Who is really holding up peace in Ukraine?

00:54:11.260 Who's really, like, the party that's refusing to sit down and sign something?

00:54:18.660 Both sides say it's the other side, right?

00:54:22.280 I think for a lot of the last year or more

00:54:25.460 I might be wrong about this, by the way

00:54:28.300 But for the last year or more

00:54:30.120 I think it has been the Russian side

00:54:31.520 Saying, though

00:54:32.860 There's no need for us to stop

00:54:35.020 It's not in our interest to stop at this point

00:54:36.460 We're winning

00:54:38.480 We're going to achieve all our war goals

00:54:40.380 And until that's happened

00:54:41.760 No, we're not going to sit down

00:54:42.760 I think that's been the case

00:54:45.380 Now, right now

00:54:46.980 Though

00:54:47.780 I think it's maybe 50-50

00:54:51.380 It may even be the Ukrainians

00:54:53.240 That are sort of stalling

00:54:54.440 I mean, that news story

00:54:55.580 But it is a Russian news story, of course

00:54:57.100 So

00:54:57.300 Take that with a giant

00:54:59.060 Tablespoon of salt

00:55:00.520 But

00:55:01.720 I think both sides

00:55:04.260 At various points

00:55:05.040 During this conflict

00:55:06.140 Have been

00:55:06.940 Reluctant to come to the peace table

00:55:09.960 Because, of course

00:55:10.720 It takes two to tango, right?

00:55:13.580 So

00:55:14.060 I really just hope

00:55:17.620 That it can be ended

00:55:19.260 As soon as possible

00:55:20.100 Because

00:55:21.000 Not just Ukrainian soldiers and civilians

00:55:23.460 But

00:55:23.740 Russian soldiers and civilians as well

00:55:26.720 According to Trump, anyway

00:55:29.980 According to lots of reports

00:55:31.100 It's a very bloody conflict

00:55:33.780 In the ballpark of tens of thousands

00:55:39.160 Die every month

00:55:40.800 In that conflict

00:55:41.700 So

00:55:45.500 It's one of those conflicts

00:55:47.600 Every day

00:55:48.480 It goes on

00:55:49.240 Every day

00:55:51.600 Every hour

00:55:52.500 Almost

00:55:53.000 It goes on

00:55:53.760 People are dying

00:55:56.040 That needn't die

00:55:57.080 So

00:55:59.540 Well, 77% of you at least

00:56:03.020 Agree with me

00:56:03.580 That

00:56:03.800 They should get round a table

00:56:06.200 And hash something out

00:56:07.540 Whether that will actually

00:56:09.800 Stop the killing on the ground

00:56:10.940 Because that part of

00:56:12.160 Eastern Ukraine

00:56:13.080 Has been a conflict zone

00:56:14.460 Even long before

00:56:15.320 The

00:56:15.680 The actual war itself

00:56:17.180 Formerly

00:56:18.060 Kicked off

00:56:18.860 So

00:56:19.480 Alright

00:56:20.380 What else have we got

00:56:21.140 Five killed in fire

00:56:22.120 In Russia's Siberian region

00:56:23.640 There's a big fire

00:56:24.680 Out in Siberia

00:56:26.140 Trump says

00:56:27.540 Major US military force

00:56:28.800 Is approaching Iran

00:56:30.000 Felly interesting

00:56:33.360 That at least the British

00:56:34.360 Mainstream

00:56:35.000 Print media

00:56:36.100 There wasn't a dicky bird

00:56:38.740 About that

00:56:39.080 Was there

00:56:39.340 Nothing

00:56:39.620 Alright

00:56:42.140 A few minutes left

00:56:42.860 As we go straight to

00:56:43.940 Skip Germany

00:56:44.620 In France today

00:56:45.380 Quick

00:56:46.820 Quick space story

00:56:47.860 I know you like space stories

00:56:49.040 I love my space stories

00:56:50.180 Quick story here

00:56:52.840 Just about

00:56:53.600 The NOAA

00:56:54.920 Space

00:56:55.480 Solar observatory

00:56:56.960 Reaches Lagrange point one

00:56:58.600 So

00:57:00.860 That's obviously

00:57:02.040 An artist's impression

00:57:03.220 But there's a

00:57:04.240 Satellite that's going to

00:57:05.500 Be studying the sun

00:57:06.700 And I'm

00:57:08.900 Fascinated by the sun

00:57:11.200 Of course

00:57:11.620 I'm

00:57:12.080 You know

00:57:12.800 I'm

00:57:13.340 Fascinated by all space things

00:57:14.700 Double segments on space

00:57:15.720 Written articles

00:57:16.280 About various things in space

00:57:17.720 The sun

00:57:20.160 Dictates nearly

00:57:21.320 Everything that goes on

00:57:22.080 In our solar system

00:57:22.820 Right

00:57:23.060 I think the sun

00:57:25.360 Dictates our

00:57:26.440 Our

00:57:27.260 Our weather patterns

00:57:28.980 On earth

00:57:29.400 It's not the only factor

00:57:30.640 Of course

00:57:30.960 There are loads

00:57:31.500 It's an extremely

00:57:32.740 Complicated system

00:57:33.900 Our weather

00:57:34.860 On earth

00:57:35.720 But a big

00:57:37.180 Big

00:57:37.580 Factor in it

00:57:38.720 Is the sun

00:57:39.360 What the sun does

00:57:40.180 The sun has cycles

00:57:41.800 The sun has

00:57:42.340 Quote unquote

00:57:43.300 Weather

00:57:43.640 Of its own

00:57:44.300 We

00:57:45.500 We need to know

00:57:47.340 How all of that works

00:57:49.280 All the processes

00:57:49.820 And that

00:57:50.100 The better we understand

00:57:51.460 That

00:57:51.800 The better for us

00:57:52.960 So yeah

00:57:54.840 This

00:57:55.100 This thing has reached

00:57:57.500 Its lagrange point

00:57:58.340 I.e. the point where

00:57:58.880 We sort of stay in space

00:58:00.120 Relative to the sun

00:58:02.000 And the earth

00:58:02.560 And just watch it

00:58:03.500 So that's good

00:58:04.020 Yeah

00:58:04.440 Any and all new

00:58:06.580 Research into the sun

00:58:07.980 Is welcome

00:58:08.740 In my opinion

00:58:10.040 Good stuff

00:58:11.280 Great stuff

00:58:11.800 Alright

00:58:12.320 This day in history

00:58:13.080 It's nearly

00:58:14.520 It's nearly 9am

00:58:15.360 So let's have a quick look

00:58:16.240 At this day in history

00:58:17.020 On the 28th of January

00:58:18.480 In the year

00:58:20.900 1521

00:58:21.780 Holy Roman Emperor

00:58:22.960 Charles V

00:58:23.640 Opened the Diet of Worms

00:58:26.060 In Worms

00:58:27.000 Germany

00:58:27.440 Which lasted until

00:58:29.280 The 25th of May

00:58:30.060 And produces

00:58:31.260 The Edict of Worms

00:58:32.860 Denouncing Martin Luther

00:58:34.620 The Martin Luther

00:58:37.300 Not to be confused with

00:58:38.760 Martin Luther King Jr

00:58:39.840 So Charles V

00:58:42.420 Holy Roman Emperor

00:58:43.340 Was protecting

00:58:44.380 In essence

00:58:45.780 Martin Luther

00:58:46.680 The popes in Rome

00:58:48.240 Wanted Martin Luther

00:58:50.120 To come and have

00:58:51.020 A little word with them

00:58:52.140 And the Roman Inquisition

00:58:53.960 From which he would

00:58:56.660 Almost certainly

00:58:57.140 Not emerge

00:58:57.920 And various magnates

00:59:00.740 And the powers that be

00:59:01.460 In Germany

00:59:02.020 Or what became Germany

00:59:03.000 Wasn't Germany yet

00:59:03.820 In the 16th century

00:59:05.360 There is no Germany as such

00:59:06.500 There's a Holy Roman Empire

00:59:08.020 And Charles V

00:59:11.160 Had been protecting

00:59:12.140 Martin Luther

00:59:12.740 And eventually

00:59:13.440 A lot of pressure

00:59:14.180 From all different

00:59:15.040 Angles

00:59:16.440 Saying you need to

00:59:17.640 Do something about him

00:59:18.440 Get him

00:59:18.800 Well the whole Catholic world

00:59:19.800 Was saying

00:59:21.100 Get him

00:59:21.620 Do him

00:59:22.020 Hand him over

00:59:23.000 Etc etc etc etc

00:59:23.820 And in the end

00:59:24.600 There's a whole

00:59:24.940 I won't get into it

00:59:25.960 It's such a long story

00:59:26.800 Fascinating story

00:59:27.840 For anyone who's

00:59:29.140 Interested really

00:59:30.080 In European history

00:59:30.980 Medieval European history

00:59:32.080 Look into the life

00:59:33.420 And career

00:59:34.880 Of Martin Luther

00:59:37.040 And that whole age

00:59:37.960 Fascinating stuff

00:59:40.520 We still live in the

00:59:41.860 Repercussions and ripples

00:59:43.180 From all of that

00:59:45.220 Really

00:59:45.580 Anyway

00:59:46.900 Charles V

00:59:47.860 Denounces

00:59:49.220 Martin Luther

00:59:50.160 But Martin Luther

00:59:51.300 Never is actually

00:59:52.480 Turned over to

00:59:53.440 Rome

00:59:54.040 Martin Luther

00:59:55.660 Ends his days

00:59:57.420 Peacefully

00:59:58.840 Of natural causes

00:59:59.680 He's never sort of

01:00:02.560 He's never sort of

01:00:04.360 Taken to a dungeon

01:00:05.320 And questioned

01:00:07.500 By the Catholic

01:00:10.820 Authorities

01:00:11.340 In 1807

01:00:13.220 London's

01:00:14.100 Pallmower

01:00:14.600 Becomes the first

01:00:15.460 Street lit by

01:00:16.280 Gaslight

01:00:16.820 Yeah Britain's

01:00:18.060 Sort of the first

01:00:18.740 In loads and loads

01:00:19.800 And loads and loads

01:00:20.420 Of things

01:00:20.820 Yeah

01:00:22.780 And that might sound

01:00:23.760 Really really dull

01:00:24.480 And I suppose to a lot

01:00:25.100 Of people it is

01:00:25.680 But the history of

01:00:27.080 Lighting

01:00:28.520 You know

01:00:28.840 Gaslighting

01:00:29.820 Arc lights

01:00:30.820 The light bulb

01:00:32.360 All of that's

01:00:33.300 Interesting to me

01:00:33.960 I find it interesting

01:00:34.740 How we go from

01:00:36.040 A world of darkness

01:00:36.840 Before there's any

01:00:37.700 Artificial light

01:00:39.040 Other than a candle

01:00:39.880 Other than just a

01:00:41.040 Bonfire

01:00:41.520 How we go from that

01:00:43.060 To Edison's

01:00:44.300 Light bulb

01:00:44.740 That you can

01:00:45.840 Commercially

01:00:46.540 Mass produce light bulbs

01:00:48.000 That last

01:00:48.700 For a while

01:00:49.680 The story of that

01:00:52.040 The process of that

01:00:52.640 I find interesting

01:00:53.240 A lot of people do

01:00:53.900 Okay

01:00:54.720 In 1813

01:00:56.380 Jane Austen's

01:00:57.380 Pride and Prejudice

01:00:58.200 Pride and Prejudice

01:00:59.820 Is published by

01:01:01.300 Thomas Egerton

01:01:02.160 In the United Kingdom

01:01:03.320 I'm not a big fan

01:01:05.460 Of Jane Austen

01:01:06.240 And the Pride and Prejudice

01:01:07.160 Story

01:01:07.340 I don't know why

01:01:07.820 I do like

01:01:08.420 19th century literature

01:01:09.400 Right

01:01:10.180 But I don't know why

01:01:11.060 I've never really

01:01:11.580 Doesn't appeal to me

01:01:13.600 Really

01:01:13.860 I suppose it is a story

01:01:15.980 Ultimately

01:01:16.400 Of like

01:01:16.960 A woman

01:01:17.500 Getting married

01:01:18.880 Does a dude like me

01:01:25.260 Care about that

01:01:25.980 Really

01:01:26.400 Now give me some

01:01:28.420 H.G. Wells

01:01:29.080 Give me some

01:01:30.980 Jules Verne

01:01:31.560 Much more interesting

01:01:33.700 Okay

01:01:33.980 In 1819

01:01:35.080 British colonial

01:01:36.020 Officer

01:01:36.480 Stanford Raffles

01:01:39.220 Lands in Singapore

01:01:40.460 Yeah

01:01:42.020 The completely

01:01:42.760 Uninhabited

01:01:43.740 Singapore

01:01:44.460 As I

01:01:45.440 Understand it

01:01:46.860 Of course

01:01:48.780 There's a long

01:01:49.200 Storied history

01:01:49.880 Then

01:01:50.220 Of us in Singapore

01:01:51.440 The British

01:01:52.080 In Singapore

01:01:52.640 Someone characterise it

01:01:55.020 As terrible

01:01:55.800 Colonialism

01:01:56.800 Evil

01:01:58.240 British

01:01:58.880 Colonialism

01:01:59.660 Others will say

01:02:01.700 It was an empty

01:02:02.180 Bit of land

01:02:02.700 And we turned it

01:02:03.240 Into a great

01:02:03.980 Shining success

01:02:05.300 You're welcome

01:02:07.560 In 1933

01:02:09.860 The name

01:02:10.500 Pakistan

01:02:10.980 Is coined

01:02:12.120 By Chowdhury

01:02:12.980 Arahat Ali

01:02:14.080 And gradually

01:02:14.980 Accepted by Muslims

01:02:16.100 In the Indian

01:02:16.760 Subcontinent

01:02:17.580 Who use it

01:02:18.520 To push for

01:02:19.080 A separate Muslim

01:02:19.720 Homeland

01:02:20.080 In South Asia

01:02:21.060 Which they then

01:02:21.700 Get in like

01:02:22.260 What the

01:02:22.520 Forties

01:02:22.960 The late

01:02:23.300 Forties

01:02:23.620 Or whatever

01:02:23.860 It is

01:02:24.140 Yeah

01:02:24.760 So yeah

01:02:25.760 Before that

01:02:26.140 It was just

01:02:26.400 Like what

01:02:26.720 Sindh

01:02:27.180 Like the

01:02:27.480 Land of

01:02:27.880 Sindh

01:02:28.780 Or the

01:02:29.080 Indus Valley

01:02:30.000 Yeah the word

01:02:31.740 Pakistan

01:02:32.160 Isn't that old

01:02:33.060 There you go

01:02:35.440 For your information

01:02:36.460 In 1986

01:02:37.540 The Space Shuttle

01:02:38.620 Challenger

01:02:39.120 That sounded like

01:02:42.700 A sarcastic

01:02:43.220 It wasn't

01:02:44.060 It was real

01:02:44.440 The Space Shuttle

01:02:47.020 Challenger

01:02:47.400 Explodes

01:02:48.000 73 seconds

01:02:49.080 After liftoff

01:02:50.080 From Cape Canaveral

01:02:51.100 Killing all seven

01:02:51.740 Crew members

01:02:52.280 Including

01:02:53.380 Krista McAuliffe

01:02:54.260 Who was to be

01:02:55.240 The first teacher

01:02:55.820 In space

01:02:56.340 Yeah a terrible

01:02:57.700 Space disaster

01:02:58.480 Up there

01:02:59.760 With sort of

01:03:00.180 Apollo 1

01:03:00.780 Anyone who doesn't

01:03:02.980 Know

01:03:03.240 Harry you're a young

01:03:04.560 And you're a zoomer

01:03:05.080 You might not know

01:03:05.780 NASA was going to

01:03:07.120 Put a normal person

01:03:07.880 A civilian

01:03:08.380 In space

01:03:09.240 It was like

01:03:10.740 This big competition

01:03:11.480 And finally

01:03:11.920 This teacher

01:03:12.540 Krista McAuliffe

01:03:14.060 Was picked

01:03:14.580 To go on the shuttle

01:03:15.360 And go up to

01:03:17.340 The International Space Station

01:03:19.900 Or was it just

01:03:20.560 Skylab

01:03:21.060 Or Mir

01:03:21.440 Or something

01:03:21.800 She was going to

01:03:22.180 Go up

01:03:22.460 Into space

01:03:23.360 And it blew up

01:03:25.960 Shortly after

01:03:28.940 Liftoff

01:03:29.280 Just completely

01:03:29.700 Blew up

01:03:30.080 All her friends

01:03:31.180 And family

01:03:31.540 Her mum and dad

01:03:32.060 Are standing there

01:03:32.600 Watching

01:03:45.480 Rent for 10 bucks

01:03:46.740 Patrid

01:03:50.080 Patrid says

01:03:52.240 So a labour

01:03:53.140 Government

01:03:53.820 Sends a guy

01:03:54.380 Sends a guy

01:03:55.420 Off to war

01:03:55.960 And then a labour

01:03:56.600 Lawyer hounds him

01:03:57.440 In court

01:03:57.800 For killing somebody

01:03:58.740 Yeah

01:03:58.980 Yeah

01:03:59.580 Exactly that

01:04:00.920 Yeah

01:04:01.160 Yes

01:04:04.120 Travesty isn't it

01:04:09.260 Really

01:04:09.460 Okay

01:04:11.860 YouTube super chats

01:04:13.160 Mr Gently Benevolent

01:04:14.560 Says

01:04:14.800 Another fine day

01:04:15.900 To crack open

01:04:16.560 A bottle of wine

01:04:17.240 And have dinner

01:04:17.920 With Dade

01:04:18.580 Because he's on

01:04:19.420 The other side

01:04:19.800 Of the world

01:04:20.200 Suppose the missus

01:04:23.100 Can have a glass

01:04:23.780 As well

01:04:24.140 That's very generous

01:04:26.140 Of you

01:04:26.340 It's very benevolent

01:04:27.120 Of you

01:04:27.460 Allow the missus

01:04:30.380 To have a glass

01:04:31.040 One glass

01:04:31.600 Don't get carried away

01:04:33.260 Love

01:04:33.540 So Dukes149

01:04:37.440 Says

01:04:37.740 Tax

01:04:38.400 The price you pay

01:04:39.480 For living in a

01:04:40.300 Kleptocracy

01:04:40.860 Yeah

01:04:41.120 I've got some

01:04:43.360 Libertarian leanings

01:04:44.800 Particularly economically

01:04:45.980 I think most tax

01:04:47.660 Is theft

01:04:48.700 State sponsored theft

01:04:49.860 I'm not 100%

01:04:51.880 Against 100%

01:04:53.000 Of taxes

01:04:53.560 But

01:04:54.800 Most taxes

01:04:56.720 In both Britain

01:05:01.100 I would look at

01:05:02.040 Getting rid of

01:05:03.700 90 plus

01:05:05.740 95%

01:05:06.780 Of taxes

01:05:07.540 Across the board

01:05:09.380 In every way

01:05:10.000 Shape or form

01:05:10.540 I would

01:05:13.400 Your economy

01:05:15.400 Would almost

01:05:15.780 Certainly boom

01:05:16.400 The people

01:05:16.920 Would be

01:05:17.460 Richer

01:05:18.300 It's a very

01:05:20.540 Broad thing

01:05:21.020 I've done

01:05:22.060 I've studied

01:05:22.480 A bit of

01:05:22.940 Political economy

01:05:23.700 At postgraduate

01:05:24.640 Level

01:05:24.920 So

01:05:25.200 It's not just

01:05:26.140 Complete scatterbrained

01:05:27.120 Hairbrained nonsense

01:05:28.080 Lots of serious

01:05:29.560 Economists

01:05:30.160 Would agree

01:05:31.660 With

01:05:31.900 That

01:05:32.580 Okay

01:05:35.080 Noble

01:05:36.720 Johnny

01:05:37.060 Calley

01:05:37.480 Says

01:05:38.460 To slurp

01:05:39.420 Or not to slurp

01:05:40.120 That is the question

01:05:40.980 Bring back the slurp

01:05:42.260 Nothing wrong

01:05:43.300 With occasional slurp

01:05:44.420 Of morning tea

01:05:45.520 On the mic

01:05:46.160 Okay

01:05:47.640 And bring back

01:05:49.240 The slurp

01:05:49.640 To breakfast

01:05:50.140 With Bo

01:05:56.820 How disgusted are you

01:06:00.240 By audible slurps

01:06:01.400 Or something like that

01:06:01.900 Do you want

01:06:02.340 Do you want me

01:06:03.480 To slurp

01:06:04.140 Into the mic

01:06:04.820 Surely most people

01:06:05.940 Wouldn't want that

01:06:06.660 But I appreciate that anyway

01:06:08.120 That's funny

01:06:08.840 That's funny to me

01:06:10.420 Lean into the slurp

01:06:12.480 Be who you are

01:06:14.440 Keep it real

01:06:15.580 Forteen Barber

01:06:30.720 Canterbury

01:06:31.080 Looks like tubs

01:06:31.860 From the League of Gentlemen

01:06:33.240 And she used to run

01:06:34.820 A local shop

01:06:35.580 For local people

01:06:36.300 And that's how she'd say it

01:06:37.160 A local shop

01:06:38.080 For local people

01:06:39.640 He said it's a local church

01:06:41.940 For local

01:06:42.360 Local people

01:06:52.020 It's really un-PC

01:06:53.020 And even like sinister
