00:00:45.020 one ever no he's real he's real but he's real person all right should we just get

00:00:51.140 straight into it today no more faffing about

00:00:55.880 there's plenty of fannying about for one morning all right what is that cabal of evil fleet street

00:01:01.480 editors trying to tell us isn't or isn't is or isn't important today we've seen the legacy 0.72

00:01:06.240 corporate mainstream media news today all right we've got israel wrecks with europe fury oh right

00:01:12.480 okay so it's god okay it's an israel palestine day here we go will i be able to tiptoe through

00:01:21.960 this minefield. Yeah. It's quite easy, really, because I'm an Englishman and I don't care

00:01:31.820 about either side in that disgusting conflict. Yeah, it's pretty easy when you look at it

00:01:36.880 like that, isn't it? You've got to pick a side. Oh, the poor state of Israel and its

00:01:43.220 plight. All the poor Palestinians don't care. Don't care. All I care about is it's a fallout 1.00

00:01:53.360 for England, for Britain. How many terrorists one way or another are going to come here

00:01:58.960 off the back of what happens there. That's all I care about. I don't care who controls

00:02:02.360 the Temple Mount. Don't care about that. Richard Tyce does. Jeremy Corbyn does. Ed Miliband

00:02:16.580 does. Okay, so yesterday, yesterday reported, didn't we, because it was in the mainstream

00:02:24.040 media, that Ed Miliband was set to talk about some, or the Burnham government was set to

00:02:30.660 put some sanctions on some Israeli companies

00:02:34.120 that were actually in the West Bank, right?

00:02:38.940 And I said yesterday, because that's what it looked like,

00:02:40.860 so that's what it seemed like,

00:02:42.020 it was actually kind of performative.

00:02:44.160 It wasn't really a big deal actually

00:02:46.460 in terms of, like, business and stuff.

00:02:49.300 Well, well, Mr. Miliband went before the House yesterday

00:02:52.920 and they changed the policy, big time.

00:02:57.560 Of course, he's backed by his Prime Minister, 0.76

00:02:59.400 anti-bum ham king of the north of course he's backed by that um and yeah they changed they 0.99

00:03:06.440 changed the policy quite radically so well not all that radically but in terms of just words in terms 0.71

00:03:11.320 of rhetoric well let's go through it israel reacts with fury to what to what what are they furious

00:03:18.040 about exactly and uh air traffic collapse in britain there was some sort of technical problem

00:03:27.800 without air traffic control things and like as much as a thousand flights were grounded

00:03:32.920 for a while like three four hours or something

00:03:38.280 there you go and also in the in the in the in the new cycle today is a bit more about

00:03:43.240 the royals harry he hasn't spoke to the king in three weeks stuff like that so

00:03:46.600 but the main story by a long way is the furore around israel okay all right let's get into the

00:03:55.000 The times, the venerable times.

00:03:56.560 Flight cancellations soar past 1,000 after air traffic control chaos.

00:04:00.060 There's not much to it other than that there seems to be some sort of technical problem.

00:04:03.560 I think largely with internal flights.

00:04:07.420 And, yeah, as many as 1,000 flights were grounded for a few hours.

00:04:11.080 There you go.

00:04:11.480 All right, let's get straight on to it.

00:04:12.300 Oh, one last thing.

00:04:14.820 Prince George.

00:04:15.600 It's George, isn't it?

00:04:16.940 Yeah.

00:04:17.840 Prince George will probably be king one day.

00:04:20.440 This is first day at Eton.

00:04:21.940 First day at big school yesterday.

00:04:25.000 all right let's get into it let's get into it israel reacts with fury to uk curbs on settlements

00:04:33.340 chief rabbi yeah there's a chief rabbi of england

00:04:36.500 and he's a sir it's uh something or other sir ephraim something the chief rabbi says

00:04:46.520 sanctions will fuel anti-semitism so you've got to let you've got to let israel do whatever it

00:04:50.980 wants, you see. If you don't let Israel do whatever it wants at all times, you're fueling 0.87

00:04:57.560 anti-Semitism. Get it? One thing I'll say in this, I don't know my takes and my opinions

00:05:06.380 are going to be in line with Carl Benjamin or Rupert Lowe. I don't know. I really don't.

00:05:13.140 I'm just going to say what I think. So, there's another way you can do it on this sort of thing.

00:05:18.660 Come what may

00:05:20.060 So, Ed Miliband stands up yesterday

00:05:23.100 And yeah, they

00:05:24.780 He talked about

00:05:26.400 As far as Israel and 0.95

00:05:28.980 Probably most Jews will be concerned 1.00

00:05:31.400 Will be like, they'll probably be a little bit aghast by it 0.53

00:05:33.680 He was talking about settler terrorists 0.99

00:05:35.620 He was talking about 0.70

00:05:37.780 Genocide in Gaza 0.60

00:05:39.060 He was talking about

00:05:40.680 It's not funny really

00:05:43.160 He was talking about

00:05:47.460 Yeah, it's settler terrorists, and they're doing, what was the other words?

00:05:52.900 There was a whole number of things that are like, it's ramping up the,

00:05:56.320 you say, this government makes a clear distinction between the good people of Israel

00:06:01.280 and the Israeli government.

00:06:02.940 We've got issues with the Israeli government.

00:06:05.320 You say that, stay up saying that.

00:06:07.980 Okay, he did, I listened to the whole statement and a few questions back from the Tories.

00:06:12.700 And he starts off, Ed Miliband

00:06:16.540 By saying, reminding everyone that he's Jewish

00:06:20.440 And how proud he is to be Jewish

00:06:23.100 Of his Jewish heritage

00:06:24.280 How some of his cherished childhood memories

00:06:27.380 Are in the kibbutz

00:06:28.420 How his family came to Britain as Jewish refugees

00:06:33.040 All that stuff

00:06:34.920 And how he condemns anti-Semitism of every stripe

00:06:39.440 Those ambulances that were burnt the other month

00:06:44.100 Remember that?

00:06:45.320 All this stuff

00:06:45.920 And how he stands with the Israeli people

00:06:47.940 And their right to have a homeland

00:06:50.020 All that stuff

00:06:50.720 So he starts like that

00:06:52.220 But then goes on to say stuff

00:06:55.160 That the Israeli government would not like

00:06:57.540 Well, they've reacted with fury, haven't they?

00:07:01.160 Yeah, saying that

00:07:02.340 There should be a two-state solution 0.92

00:07:05.940 To the Arab-Israeli conflict

00:07:08.520 okay and that he and the burn government are absolutely committed to that and anything that 0.70

00:07:15.300 israeli settlers are doing to prevent that building strategically very very strategically

00:07:20.980 chosen new settlements in the west bank to sort of prevent that ever happening

00:07:25.100 that that's wrong that that's wrong and that's bad and that there's been a massive uptick in

00:07:31.260 in settler violence

00:07:33.680 Jewish violence against 0.94

00:07:36.340 Palestinians, Arabs 0.76

00:07:37.820 in the West Bank

00:07:39.440 in a massive uptick of that

00:07:41.040 and that they are terrorists 0.98

00:07:43.620 you can only imagine the Israeli

00:07:47.820 the Israeli reaction to that

00:07:51.460 and many others

00:07:56.500 when the Tories finally stood up and asked a few questions

00:07:59.820 they go oh yes we condemn settler violence yes yes yes oh but we also condemn uh october 7th of

00:08:05.260 course yes yes yes uh and they say but um it's not quite it's not right really to in in to do

00:08:13.740 sanctions on companies in the in the west bank oh that's the other thing let's get to the actual

00:08:18.540 meat of the policy he said middle band this is says he'll put sanctions on the companies that

00:08:25.180 that are in the West Bank, even on individuals

00:08:28.460 that live there or profit from it,

00:08:32.000 is gonna stop selling arms in various ways

00:08:35.300 or put a double lock on an embargo already

00:08:39.600 on selling arms to Israel in some ways, limited ways.

00:08:46.720 Yeah, so there's actually like a little bit to the point.

00:08:50.020 And you said, Britain is just committed

00:08:52.440 to the two-state solution.

00:08:55.180 and Britain as a country and his government, the Burnham government, has to stand up for what's right

00:09:02.180 and he talked about how there was genocide in Gaza, he didn't explicitly say, I was listening carefully right

00:09:09.180 and he didn't explicitly say Israel has committed a genocide in Gaza

00:09:16.180 because you know Gaza and West Bank are two different things aren't they?

00:09:19.180 geographically two different things but he did talk like in the same breath

00:09:24.740 about the tens of thousands of people palestinians that have been killed in gaza including 20 000

00:09:30.840 children including 20 000 children um he did talk about that in the same breath as genocide

00:09:37.140 so okay i suppose those are the main things now yeah israel hit back and their supporters

00:09:46.440 hit back saying, in fact, let's read the blurb on the IR paper because this gives us the main

00:09:52.000 talking points. All right. Israel fury after UK accuses settlers of ethnic cleansing. Oh,

00:09:56.880 yeah, use that word as well. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. What Israel and the settlers are doing in the

00:10:00.920 West Bank is ethnic cleansing, according to Mr. Miliband there. Israel, and so the response is

00:10:07.980 that Israel shuts down British consulate in Jerusalem. Just shuts it down. They're annoyed.

00:10:16.440 they're furious as is richard tyce after the uk france and canada imposed sanctions on illegal

00:10:24.200 israeli settlements in the west bank yeah yeah it's just calling them illegal just straight up

00:10:28.040 illegal settlements until now a lot of governments including ours have just been very very studious

00:10:34.280 very very deliberate in not necessarily using words like that to say oh we're we don't think 0.76

00:10:39.960 think it's a good idea stuff like that but fall short of saying it's a it's ethnic cleansing it's

00:10:46.440 illegal it's a genocide it's terrorism i've always been very careful to not use those types of words

00:10:52.780 well ed milliband's thrown that out out the window he's just saying it now

00:10:56.240 all right foreign secretary ed milliband accuses israel government of turning a blind eye to the

00:11:08.400 ethnic cleansing of Palestinians by settler terrorists.

00:11:11.980 It's much stronger language, isn't it? Israel accuses him 0.95

00:11:17.440 of spreading outrageous liars. I mean, are they? 0.74

00:11:24.120 Are they outrageous liars? 0.97

00:11:28.680 I mean, you can be the judge of that, can't you, I think? 0.88

00:11:32.740 Miliband insists he is a

00:11:36.780 proud British Jew quote and acknowledges grave threats faced by Israel whilst vowing new approach

00:11:43.740 to Israel-Palestinian conflict, Israeli-Palestinian conflict. UK chief rabbi calls it quote

00:11:49.820 truly a dark day for British Jews quote arguing trade ban will quote embolden anti-Semites

00:11:57.740 and accuses the government of gesture politics quote.

00:12:00.700 Israel threatens intelligence sharing with UK

00:12:06.900 that we share intelligence between our intelligence services

00:12:11.200 that might be under threat

00:12:14.140 UK awaits another thing they did

00:12:18.200 they did do some sanctions back

00:12:21.220 they banned a number of MPs from ever going to Israel

00:12:26.300 Labour ones, lefty ones

00:12:29.280 including Jeremy Corbyn

00:12:32.520 and Diane Abbott

00:12:33.360 Jeremy Corbyn and Diane Abbott

00:12:36.860 will have to put their holiday plans

00:12:38.420 to Tel Aviv on ice

00:12:39.760 oh no

00:12:41.520 what's Jeremy Corbyn

00:12:48.040 going to do with that

00:12:49.340 that seaside properties

00:12:53.840 bought in Tel Aviv

00:12:54.940 he can't even visit it now

00:12:56.900 alright

00:12:58.440 UK awaits American reaction

00:13:01.320 oh what are the Yanks going to say

00:13:02.680 oh no

00:13:03.260 with potential for Andy Burnham's

00:13:05.800 first major dispute with Trump

00:13:07.540 because according to Tucker Carlson 0.99

00:13:10.080 Trump is just an Israeli slave 0.99

00:13:11.920 that's what Tucker said 1.00

00:13:14.760 sorry not my words

00:13:15.940 those are Tucker's words

00:13:16.920 alright

00:13:17.700 well actually Marco Rubio

00:13:19.060 and the State Department

00:13:19.820 have come out already

00:13:20.620 and made some noises

00:13:21.500 and they were actually

00:13:23.140 they're actually quite mooted

00:13:25.780 they didn't

00:13:26.480 they didn't come out 0.63

00:13:27.560 and call it, like, the disgusting stench of anti-Semitism,

00:13:32.640 which Richard Tice did.

00:13:34.400 Richard Tice promptly went on GB News

00:13:36.760 and said that what Miliband and Burnham did here

00:13:39.840 is, like, stinks of anti-Semitism.

00:13:46.300 There you go.

00:13:47.620 He said, this will... 0.97

00:13:49.320 This will lead to more violent attacks against Jews in Britain

00:13:54.520 and Burnham and Miliband will have that blood on their hands.

00:14:03.680 All right. All right.

00:14:09.260 So Israel reacts with fury.

00:14:11.460 Yeah, and various people that are close to, or in the Israeli government,

00:14:15.740 or quite literally close to Benjamin Netanyahu, like his advisers and stuff,

00:14:19.480 they started doing the rounds on the news.

00:14:22.460 yeah just saying you know obviously obviously condemning it and not really answering the

00:14:29.640 personal questions about settler violence when pressed you know they'll bring them on and they'll

00:14:36.080 say things like uh we condemn this this is anti-semitic it's really bad blah blah blah

00:14:41.280 and then like the interviewer will say something like yeah okay sure but um what about settler

00:14:47.840 violence though what about the the terroristic act according to milliband the terroristic act of uh

00:14:56.560 of what amounts to ethnic cleansing in the west bank by jewish settlers

00:15:02.640 don't really answer that do they usually they'll just immediately pivot to just answer a different

00:15:07.920 question. Classic. Classic. I don't really answer that. Oh, no. Oh, no. There's a big

00:15:20.040 furore between the British government and the Israeli government. Oh, well. You know, 0.96

00:15:28.960 other people say, could make the argument that, well, you definitely could make the argument 0.53

00:15:34.300 That the other side is that it's an example of Miliband and Andy Burnham bending over for the Islamic lobby.

00:15:48.760 Right, that there's loads of Muslim, literally loads of Muslim MPs in the Labour Party and a big chunk of the Labour Party membership and base are Muslim now.

00:15:57.480 and they're relying on the Muslim vote

00:16:02.200 Labour are

00:16:03.420 relying on the Muslim vote 0.64

00:16:04.920 up and down this country

00:16:06.100 to be returned to power

00:16:08.920 at the next general election

00:16:09.980 so that's what this is really

00:16:11.860 all this sort of thing

00:16:12.720 is part of that

00:16:14.260 I mean that is also true

00:16:19.100 isn't it

00:16:19.780 like Edmiliband said

00:16:20.840 after there was a question or two

00:16:21.920 from the conservative front benches

00:16:24.360 Edmiliband just said

00:16:27.460 yeah i'm not really interested in what you the tories say or think i'm interested in um what

00:16:34.180 what the what the muslims think about what's going on about the envoy we've got to palestine

00:16:39.860 or gaza or whatever i'm interested in what they say very quite explicit about it

00:16:47.540 okay let's see is there any other major elements to it than that oh yeah um france and canada

00:16:54.340 apparently, came out the same day, yesterday, with similar words, similar policies.

00:17:04.560 It's obviously coordinated on some level.

00:17:08.560 And they join a whole bunch of other countries, European countries,

00:17:11.200 loads of them that have already said things like this.

00:17:14.740 Loads of other countries like Spain, some of the Scandinavian countries and stuff.

00:17:20.180 So, okay.

00:17:20.980 Now my feeling is

00:17:24.400 Again, just to reiterate

00:17:25.540 My feeling is

00:17:26.780 I only care about how it affects my people

00:17:33.600 I'm not pro-Palestinian 0.90

00:17:36.820 And I'm not pro-Israeli 0.84

00:17:38.460 Really not 0.86

00:17:39.540 Either way

00:17:40.240 Either way

00:17:41.060 Might that get me in trouble

00:17:43.660 Or lower in the estimation

00:17:47.120 Of my bosses

00:17:49.720 Or Rupert Lowe

00:17:50.800 or whatever. I don't care. I don't care. I've just got to be honest. I've got to be honest.

00:17:58.100 I care about as much about what happens, goes on in the West Bank or Gaza,

00:18:02.420 than I care about than some sort of civil war that might break out in Burma or something.

00:18:06.640 I'm English. It shouldn't affect me. It's got nothing to do with me, actually.

00:18:13.480 The Islamic conquests of that part of the world, shortly after the death of Muhammad in the 7th 0.58

00:18:19.120 century, it's got nothing to do with England, it's got nothing to do with us, or someone

00:18:23.800 will say immediately, the Balfour Declaration, the Balfour Declaration, yeah, that never

00:18:28.380 actually really got implemented, they did it, because after World War I, when Allenby,

00:18:33.500 Field Marshal Allenby, entered Jerusalem, kicked the Turks out, kicked the Ottoman out,

00:18:39.200 you're welcome by the way, and there was a mandate there, a British mandate there, okay,

00:18:45.640 all right that was all in the early 20th century but then since the end of the war world war two

00:18:52.000 with the un mandate there since then it's had it's had absolutely nothing to do with us we

00:18:58.120 tried our level best between allenby entering jerusalem in 1917 and us leaving in the late

00:19:03.200 40s britain tried its very very best we tried our very very best to stop that region from just 0.98

00:19:10.560 descending into some sort of disgusting hot sectarian mess and they wouldn't have it the 1.00

00:19:16.600 various peoples of that region would not have it and in the end we had to just throw our hands up 1.00

00:19:22.080 and say all right we you know back away slowly like homer into the hedge okay all right there's

00:19:29.120 nothing to do with us now there's nothing to do with us i'm not interested in picking a side

00:19:34.440 Not interested in that

00:19:36.260 Well you must pick a side

00:19:37.920 You must stand for Israel 1.00

00:19:39.560 Or you must stand for the Palestinians 1.00

00:19:41.220 No thanks, pass 1.00

00:19:42.360 Pass, thank you

00:19:44.980 No, I don't think so

00:19:46.860 That's your 7th century feud

00:19:51.320 Not ours

00:19:52.580 All I care about is if my country gets flooded 1.00

00:19:57.960 With more Islamic militants 0.83

00:20:00.980 That was one of the things Ed Miliband says 1.00

00:20:02.740 is proud to have accepted

00:20:04.220 loads and loads of refugees

00:20:05.320 from Gaza

00:20:06.000 and we will accept more

00:20:07.680 why

00:20:11.460 why

00:20:12.800 why should we

00:20:13.620 why should we

00:20:15.380 just make our society

00:20:17.740 less safe

00:20:18.460 why

00:20:18.800 alright it's 20 past

00:20:23.760 what else have we got

00:20:25.560 here's the main story

00:20:26.480 in the news today

00:20:27.180 oh the Guardian

00:20:27.780 ew

00:20:28.160 ew the Guardian

00:20:31.040 Of course, they're going to love what Miliband said, aren't they?

00:20:36.800 It's funny how the left and the right can find common ground.

00:20:43.880 Sometimes.

00:20:46.280 UK condemns ethnic cleansing by Israeli terrorists in West Bank.

00:20:51.780 There you go, just straight up.

00:20:53.560 Just straight up.

00:20:54.540 It is quite a significant change in wording and policy.

00:20:58.760 All right.

00:20:59.640 Should I have a quick look at the map, just to say, in case people don't know?

00:21:02.360 Because I think some people don't know.

00:21:03.700 Like Harry, as a Zoomer, as a genuine, bona fide Zoomer,

00:21:09.320 do you know much about the history of, or anything really,

00:21:12.820 about the history of the West Bank?

00:21:15.020 Yeah, I mean, not really.

00:21:16.260 They don't cover it.

00:21:19.020 They didn't cover it in school?

00:21:20.580 No, no, no.

00:21:21.180 Oh, that's a surprise.

00:21:22.840 That's a surprise.

00:21:24.600 All right.

00:21:25.380 You've got all places like Jenin up in the north.

00:21:27.440 You've got, like, Nablus.

00:21:29.240 Jericho, not Chris Jericho, this is serious.

00:21:35.180 The ancient settlement of Jericho, sort of East Jerusalem.

00:21:39.400 Even Bethlehem and Hebron, Bethlehem is inside the West Bank.

00:21:42.880 So this is a disputed bit of land, simple as that.

00:21:47.540 I mean, for example, hardliners in Israel will say, no, it's not disputed.

00:21:52.980 This is just Judea.

00:21:55.180 This is simply part of Israel.

00:21:56.920 There's nothing disputed about it.

00:21:58.500 it's our land right that's one side that's one side of that argument the other side

00:22:03.700 palestinians the arabs will say no you you the israelis stole this land stole it it's ours

00:22:11.680 it's ours and then it really is as simple as that and and then a bunch of other people like i don't

00:22:20.100 know well like ed milliband or bill clinton or a number of other people will say well the only

00:22:26.400 solution to this two different peoples claiming the same bit of land as their own the only real

00:22:31.620 solution to that is to basically share it have a two-state solution a lot of people on both sides

00:22:39.840 of that argument the arabs and the israelis for years have said no no i'm not interested in a

00:22:48.200 two-state solution it's our land and round and round we go and round around we go that's it

00:22:54.100 And today in Britain

00:22:58.140 You're supposed to have a really firm view on that

00:23:01.260 And really care about it one way or the other

00:23:02.560 And pick a side and all that stuff

00:23:03.840 No, no, no

00:23:04.540 Like Richard Tice coming out

00:23:07.160 Richard Tice coming out and just saying

00:23:08.660 What Ed Miliband has said

00:23:10.620 Is really anti-Semitic

00:23:13.100 Really bad 0.98

00:23:14.400 He's going to have blood on his hands

00:23:15.820 Etc, etc, etc

00:23:16.600 It is

00:23:21.340 At its core

00:23:22.720 A racial, religious, ethnic

00:23:25.920 Sectarian 1.00

00:23:27.780 Nightmare

00:23:29.940 Where two people 1.00

00:23:33.620 Two different peoples 0.98

00:23:35.180 Who think they've got 0.98

00:23:37.400 Or claim they've got

00:23:38.640 Sort of the mandate of heaven

00:23:40.840 To own that land

00:23:43.540 And it's theirs and theirs alone

00:23:44.980 It originally dates back

00:23:49.320 To the early

00:23:51.240 the first half of the seventh century and now in 2026 in england we're supposed to

00:24:04.040 we're supposed to like pick aside

00:24:08.520 what's it got to do with england again remind me just remind me what it's got to do with england

00:24:17.320 directly

00:24:17.880 you want to point to the balfour declaration you want to point to

00:24:23.980 world war one where we kicked out the ottoman occupation

00:24:28.660 bit weak at this point in 2026 bit weak i would argue it's got nothing to do with us

00:24:36.180 there you go i've talked before haven't i well i definitely have on the main podcast and on

00:24:44.180 Brexham Bay once or twice, talked about the Temple Mount and the Dome of the Rock and

00:24:54.100 again the 7th century conquests of Islam and all that sort of thing. I did a whole segment

00:25:02.540 on the main part of the podcast like what a year or more ago, oh no it was relatively

00:25:07.420 shortly after october the 7th um talking about the history of like the various intifadas

00:25:18.940 so okay okay there you go i suppose that that is sort of the main story in a new cycle today

00:25:27.980 all right what else have we got 250 million pound bill for illegal children's care homes

00:25:34.140 Apparently, some councils are spending as much as quarter of a billion pounds a year on illegal children's care homes.

00:25:43.220 We talked about this a bit before, haven't we, once or twice?

00:25:46.100 Somebody, it wasn't me, somebody did a half-decent, like, long, longer-form segment on the main podcast at one point.

00:25:55.140 Where it's just, there's not enough children's care homes, sort of, full stop, that's the bottom line.

00:25:59.300 and so how do you deal with

00:26:02.280 these great number of children that need care

00:26:04.900 when you haven't got enough homes formally

00:26:07.880 well I hesitate to call it a black market

00:26:11.380 but well if they are illegal

00:26:12.740 I suppose it's a type of black market

00:26:15.660 these children have got to go somewhere

00:26:17.820 but it's costing again

00:26:20.480 Brewster's millions amounts of money

00:26:22.420 just crazy silly numbers of money

00:26:24.180 Alright 0.76

00:26:27.420 Also the Guardian goes with

00:26:29.940 Under fire

00:26:31.540 Kiev reels after strikes

00:26:34.360 As Prosecutor General quits

00:26:37.020 So it's just

00:26:39.240 The war in Ukraine

00:26:40.620 And the Donbass

00:26:42.720 In Russia and Ukraine

00:26:43.540 Just going on and on interminably

00:26:46.360 It's funny, the other day or earlier this week

00:26:48.360 I thought Stephen Wyckoff

00:26:52.080 And Jared Kushner had had great talks

00:26:54.160 with with Zelensky and that they were close to making a deal or something

00:27:00.280 don't look like it does it I think so mate all right the Daily Mail the King

00:27:06.700 and Harry haven't spoke he's been back in the UK for two weeks now and him and

00:27:11.920 his dad the King haven't even spoken apparently all right we'll leave that to

00:27:15.520 Dan Whitton if you're interested in the details of that back and forth of that

00:27:19.960 Prince George to be king, the man who would be king, the boy who would be king, so this first day at Eton

00:27:28.540 There you go, that's the school uniform if you go to Eton

00:27:32.040 Like a morning coat with tails and like a weird collar thing

00:27:38.040 Okay, my school uniform looks almost exactly like the ones in the in-betweeners

00:27:43.540 Okay, Miliband accused of putting Jews in the UK in danger

00:27:49.500 What, by talking about things the Israeli government have done in the West Bank

00:27:56.440 As a matter of record

00:27:58.360 That puts them in danger, does it?

00:28:00.780 Well, if it does 1.00

00:28:01.760 Maybe take it up with Bibi 0.78

00:28:04.120 Rather than people that have just noticed it

00:28:06.320 Chief Rabbi and Tory leader 1.00

00:28:08.940 Olu Kemu Badadok, the Nigerian anchor baby

00:28:13.780 React furiously to Labour sanctions on Israeli settlements

00:28:19.820 Labour was accused of putting British Jews at risk last night

00:28:24.620 After caving in to left-wing activists demanding sanctions on Israel

00:28:28.560 Say left-wing, you mean Muslim 0.88

00:28:30.700 Well, and left-wing, it'll be both 0.98

00:28:34.580 It'll be both

00:28:35.540 They're caving in to that 1.00

00:28:37.700 There's truly dark days for British Jews

00:28:41.640 Says the Britain's chief rabbi 1.00

00:28:44.640 Olukemu Badrenok, the Nigerian anchor baby

00:28:48.900 Joined the condemnation

00:28:50.800 Saying Andy Burnham risks fanning the flames of anti-Semitism

00:28:56.100 Any criticism of Israel ever

00:29:01.540 Is fanning the flames of anti-Semitism

00:29:04.080 Even if what they're doing could be described

00:29:06.780 As ethnic cleansing, genocide and terrorism

00:29:09.720 okay the metro do the metro what is that disgusting smell what is that

00:29:21.360 oh it's terrible oh it smells like something died it smells like hot roadkill baking in the

00:29:31.960 new mexico sun what is that oh it's rotten oh oh oh it's the metro that's what the metro smells

00:29:36.860 like. That's what that is. Fury over Miliband war crimes claims. Fury. Backlash as UK accuses

00:29:44.540 Israel. Reprisals promised. Political reprisals. Probably. After UK sanctions firms who helped

00:29:52.900 build ethnic cleansing settlements. Oh, the other thing Ed Miliband said is later in this

00:29:59.820 month he's going to go to the UN and he's going to say all this stuff again at the UN.

00:30:05.220 he says

00:30:07.100 he's gonna

00:30:07.520 alright

00:30:12.080 oh here's some

00:30:13.980 even more important news though

00:30:15.240 even more important news

00:30:17.340 is that Tom Jones

00:30:19.900 has been fired

00:30:20.880 off the voice 0.68

00:30:21.580 some crappy show

00:30:26.900 I've only ever seen

00:30:27.840 about 10 minutes off ever

00:30:28.940 somehow

00:30:29.600 they've got these big chairs

00:30:32.320 someone behind them

00:30:33.300 sings a song

00:30:33.940 they just listen to it

00:30:34.940 and if they really like the sound of the voice,

00:30:36.960 they press a button and the chair turns around,

00:30:38.820 and then they'll become their mentor.

00:30:40.180 I believe that's the conceit of the show.

00:30:43.160 Tom Jones was on it.

00:30:43.940 Tom Jones is like mid-80s.

00:30:45.180 He's like 85, 86 or something.

00:30:48.500 He's friends with Elvis, did you know?

00:30:50.480 He never mentions it.

00:30:52.320 Tom Jones rarely mentions that he met Elvis

00:30:54.880 and was friends with Elvis.

00:30:59.080 I'm joking.

00:30:59.860 He mentions that about as often as Andy Burnham

00:31:01.500 mentions being from the North.

00:31:04.020 He won't show up about it.

00:31:04.940 The first thing you meet Tom Jones, you shake his hand.

00:31:07.620 Oh, it's nice to meet you, Tom Jones.

00:31:09.020 He's like, I met Elvis, you know.

00:31:12.980 I met Elvis, you know.

00:31:15.160 All right.

00:31:16.360 He's been fired off of it.

00:31:19.620 Again, this headline says, I just want some extra time,

00:31:22.160 Sir Tom Axtrom, the voice, as if he's decided to quit

00:31:25.480 because he wants more time or he's getting old.

00:31:27.140 But another headline said, no, he's fully, fully fired.

00:31:30.340 Anyway, who cares?

00:31:31.300 Who cares about Tom Jones and the voice?

00:31:33.020 All right, what else we got?

00:31:33.860 The Express.

00:31:34.940 The Daily Express. It's a good paper. You can read your Express now. Your globalist slop now. Here you go. Take your globalist slop. Let's do an intravenous line straight to your veins of globalist slop. The Express wearing the skin suit of something patriotic or nativist.

00:31:57.700 There you go. Prince George going on first day at school, big school. 0.57

00:32:03.360 Eton College.

00:32:05.480 Will he go on to Oxford or Cambridge, even if he's not very clever

00:32:08.320 and doesn't get very good GCSEs and A-levels?

00:32:11.380 Yeah, almost certainly, yeah.

00:32:15.360 Didn't Wills go to St Andrews?

00:32:17.700 I don't think Wills actually went to Oxford or Cambridge.

00:32:19.640 Anyway, if you want to go to a very, very good university, no questions asked.

00:32:24.760 The normal rules don't apply to them, do they?

00:32:27.700 Good luck, enjoy it, Prince George starts at Eton

00:32:30.980 Okay

00:32:32.060 Jewish leaders fear rising anti-Semitism after Labour sanctions Israeli settlements

00:32:38.340 You have put an increased target on us

00:32:40.900 What? Miliband has

00:32:44.780 Not the actions of the Israeli government

00:32:48.320 Miliband has

00:32:50.060 You just noticed it and said something about it

00:32:56.220 He's put the target on you

00:32:57.660 Okay, that's an odd logic

00:33:03.380 That's odd

00:33:04.860 Alright, the Daily Telegraph 0.96

00:33:06.420 Now a German-owned Zionist organ 0.75

00:33:11.000 Simultaneously anti-British nativism

00:33:16.320 And patriotism and nationalism

00:33:17.700 Air traffic collapse, grounds flats

00:33:20.100 Okay, we've done that

00:33:21.240 Prince George goes to school

00:33:24.000 Chief Rabbi, Miliband sanctions will endanger

00:33:27.480 jews all right i guess we've done it there's not much more to say i suppose

00:33:36.440 oh this is a mildly interesting story the rnli boats carrying migrants refused entry

00:33:42.600 that's interesting that's a bit of a development there's a couple of different places

00:33:46.680 in on the english shoreline i think there's one up in essex or in kent a couple different places

00:33:53.960 where the RNLI turn up with some migrants,

00:33:56.880 like towing a dinghy or whatever, 0.88

00:33:58.320 or they've got all the people off the dinghy

00:33:59.920 and they're now crowded onto the deck of an RNLI lifeboat.

00:34:04.840 They turn up at some little port town somewhere

00:34:07.600 and the authorities there was like,

00:34:09.680 no, you can't come in.

00:34:11.460 We're saying, we're sort of unilaterally making the call,

00:34:14.540 the decision that you can't land here

00:34:16.320 and just dump a hundred

00:34:18.700 unvetted foreign migrants now when they're not migrants are they they're not migrants 0.81

00:34:26.240 they're invaders and we're not just going to accept 100 or 140 or whatever foreign invaders 0.87

00:34:31.980 all young men of fighting age completely unvetted don't know who they are and we're not just going 0.99

00:34:37.680 to accept them into our town no nice cool good like it like it shoppers are face year of surge 1.00

00:34:47.680 in food prices it'll be more than a year won't it it'll be more than a year

00:34:52.400 to get inflation like back under control i imagine we'll be sat with more and more and

00:35:02.940 more inflation for a long long time why they're saying it's a year well this time next year

00:35:10.640 will be millionaires rodders no this time next year there won't be inflation on food prices

00:35:17.640 I doubt that.

00:35:18.260 Highly doubt that.

00:35:21.400 Welsh children are two years behind in reading. 0.99

00:35:24.920 No comment. 1.00

00:35:31.560 Don't know why that would be.

00:35:33.160 I really don't.

00:35:34.160 All right, The Sun.

00:35:35.240 They love Holly Willabooby, don't they?

00:35:37.320 The Sun, for some reason.

00:35:42.780 Okay.

00:35:43.700 Fury at latest jet fast.

00:35:46.260 They've decided not the Israel thing, but the aeroplane thing is the most important.

00:35:52.980 Well, you can say, Labour put Brit Jews in danger.

00:36:00.660 You can imagine the writers and the editors. How are we going to phrase it? What's the exact

00:36:05.620 phraseology we're going to use? What's the cadence and syntax of our headline going to be?

00:36:09.700 put brit jews in danger yes that's it perfect that's flawless that's absolutely flawless that 0.76

00:36:17.580 is do that put brit jews in danger okay fury at latest jet fast tech glitch grounds a thousand 0.77

00:36:25.700 planes thousands stranded across uk that's another flying mess right financial times battle lions

00:36:35.480 ban on Israeli trade

00:36:37.280 widens

00:36:37.980 there's a picture of some sort of bombed out

00:36:41.200 building in the West Bank I believe

00:36:42.880 I believe

00:36:44.580 I did read it this morning earlier

00:36:47.100 where that is a picture from but I think it's the West Bank

00:36:48.740 ok

00:36:49.680 alright what else have we got

00:36:53.060 the star they go with something about

00:36:55.060 Holly Willoughby as well

00:36:56.040 Tom Jones the star I've decided

00:36:58.460 out of everything out of all the various stories we've mentioned

00:37:00.960 this morning

00:37:01.380 the most important one

00:37:05.080 is Tom Jones. Tom Jones, you see. Voice Tom, that's his name now, not Tom Jones. He's on

00:37:13.920 the show called The Voice. His name's Voice Tom. Voice Tom has said, it's unusual for

00:37:23.440 me to be fired by anyone. Yeah, I don't know how many people have ever, well, since the

00:37:28.760 60s have ever fired tom jones why why why did you sack me is the headline anyone just listening to

00:37:37.580 the audio he sung that song delilah yeah you know that one why why why delilah you know that

00:37:44.780 why why why did you sack me well because you're old mate you're quite doddery actually come from

00:38:07.060 and totter off into retirement because you're extremely old aren't you now yeah that's why

00:38:22.100 Why am I being rude?

00:38:24.300 I quite like Tom James

00:38:25.100 He's got a load of good songs

00:38:26.560 Why am I being out of order to Tom James?

00:38:30.980 I like him

00:38:31.500 Can't help being sarcastic sometimes

00:39:26.940 They are the increasingly absurd and frustrating front pages out of Fleet Street this morning

00:39:33.080 Alright

00:39:34.880 I wonder how many pro-Israeli or pro-Palestinian people that's annoyed 0.86

00:39:41.820 Lotus Eater's viewers, the gross band, the chosen few

00:39:44.800 Shall we have a look? We did a poll along those lines

00:39:46.660 We'll have a look, shall we?

00:39:47.580 we gauge

00:39:49.140 how that went down

00:39:53.120 how my takes went down

00:39:54.900 pro-english

00:39:55.700 I'm pro-english and I'll make no apologies

00:39:58.220 alright

00:40:00.160 I instructed little Harry to do a poll

00:40:02.280 just asking that, something about the settlers

00:40:04.260 so let's have a look, we have a look at our poll

00:40:06.540 about this time in the morning

00:40:08.700 alright

00:40:10.340 just over a thousand votes, we asked

00:40:12.420 do you support Israeli settlement

00:40:14.460 in the West Bank?

00:40:16.140 straight up

00:40:16.640 Do you support it? 0.86

00:40:20.380 The no's have it

00:40:21.920 67% say no

00:40:24.160 33% say yes

00:40:26.820 Interesting

00:40:28.420 Interesting

00:40:30.440 So still two thirds

00:40:32.000 If that was a

00:40:33.180 That was a

00:40:34.580 A national referendum

00:40:36.540 We would claim a mandate for all time off the strength of that

00:40:39.100 67 to 33

00:40:40.520 To make it clear once again

00:40:43.400 For me

00:40:43.920 I kind of

00:40:46.640 don't support it one way or the other.

00:40:51.680 I won't condemn it or support it.

00:40:53.680 It's just nothing to do with us.

00:40:56.260 If there was some sort of equivalent thing in Devon, let's say,

00:41:02.220 if there was somehow some sort of equivalent thing in Devon, 1.00

00:41:05.420 I wouldn't want to be hearing from Israel. 1.00

00:41:08.140 I wouldn't want to be hearing from Jordan or Saudi Arabia 1.00

00:41:11.280 or even Germany and France.

00:41:13.700 It's our issue. It's our problem. 0.99

00:41:15.620 We'll deal with it the way we want

00:41:17.240 I don't feel the same way about this

00:41:21.780 That's your problem

00:41:22.660 You deal with it however you want to deal with it

00:41:24.780 That's up to you

00:41:25.500 That's between you guys

00:41:27.440 It's not our problem

00:41:30.420 But anyway

00:41:30.840 Anyway

00:41:32.840 67% of you said

00:41:36.180 No

00:41:37.140 Alright

00:41:40.440 There you go

00:41:41.560 Let's have a look at the

00:41:45.600 price of crude we check in with the price of crude most mornings don't we on this show

00:41:48.960 let's have a look let's do a little free refresh make sure it's real-time prices this real-time

00:41:54.240 prices oh brent crude just below a hundred dollars it could tick up to a hundred dollars

00:42:01.440 as we watch it probably won't but 99.92 a barrel for brent crude

00:42:08.720 over 94 and a half dollars oh pardon me 94 and a half dollars for west texas

00:42:15.340 almost certainly go over 100 today won't it or in the next few moments even who knows

00:42:20.140 and tomorrow the uh the new cycle can freak out about it a bit

00:42:27.140 crude's gone above 100 a barrel again you know they will

00:42:31.540 how much will naphtha cost on the open market

00:42:38.720 How much will fuel oil cost?

00:42:43.300 Not necessarily all that closely linked to the price of just crude, is it?

00:42:49.880 Oh, right.

00:42:51.820 All the main websites will be going with the same stuff, won't they?

00:42:56.320 They'll all be going with the Mr Miliband's words,

00:43:00.000 Mr Burnham's government's policy towards Israel.

00:43:03.240 Oh, and the royal family, sorry, sorry, and the royal family.

00:43:05.160 of almost equal importance

00:43:07.200 is what Meghan and Harry feel

00:43:16.560 why has it done that?

00:43:18.440 alright

00:44:53.460 You guys quite like me doing this segment

00:44:55.480 I enjoy doing this segment

00:44:56.460 Down through the centuries

00:44:57.540 Nay the millennia

00:44:58.280 On this day in history

00:44:59.440 The 9th of September

00:45:00.300 What happened of note?

00:45:01.640 Let's have a wee look-see

00:45:02.900 Shall we?

00:45:05.220 Alright

00:45:05.700 On this day in the year 1000

00:45:07.640 The Battle of Svolda

00:45:09.880 In the Baltic Sea

00:45:11.300 Took place

00:45:11.980 King Olaf

00:45:13.220 Onboard of Norway

00:45:15.280 Of Norway

00:45:16.000 Onboard the Long Serpent

00:45:18.700 Is defeated

00:45:19.580 In one of the greatest naval battles

00:45:21.020 Of the Viking Age

00:45:21.880 And leaps to his death

00:45:23.080 overboard so it's a sort of an inter viking war there it was if if memory serves it's like

00:45:31.400 it's like sweden and dem what the modern countries of sweden and denmark even that is

00:45:37.320 not quite accurate there's more to the story but broadly roughly speaking the marauding the marauding

00:45:44.280 men who go a viking and raiding from the modern bits of land that we call denmark and sweden

00:45:51.960 went to war with a whole bunch of other vikings from norway and beat them and the king of norway

00:45:58.240 himself decides to commit suicide rather than be captured by just jumping into the sea which in

00:46:04.680 medieval and ancient times is just shorthand for drowning most people couldn't swim in the pre-modern

00:46:09.860 world most people couldn't now it's just a rite of passage isn't it you learn to read or write

00:46:16.760 do a bit of maths learn to ride a bicycle learn to swim well that just wasn't the case for most

00:46:23.720 of human history sort of a specialist art able to swim so all right jumping overboard just means

00:46:31.160 death okay on this day in 1543 mary stewart mary queen of scots at nine months old is crowned queen

00:46:39.240 of scots in the central scottish town of stirling yeah mary queen of scots fascinating life when i

00:46:45.160 get up to it in epochs soon by the end of the year i would have thought so i'm only up to edward

00:46:51.320 the sixth at the moment when i get up to the age of bloody mary and queen elizabeth the first

00:46:59.960 should do by the end of the year i would hope we're going to be talking all about

00:47:04.360 mary stuart mary queen of scots and her catholicism and her attempts to

00:47:11.400 subvert and perhaps even occasionally invade england you know

00:47:18.200 and of course her imprisonment and final execution all right mary queen is gone

00:47:22.280 on this day in 1776 congress officially renames the country as the united states of america

00:47:29.480 from the united colonies it used to be called the united united colonies

00:47:33.080 1776, so straight away

00:47:35.960 That was one thing they did do straight away

00:47:39.040 As we talked before, haven't we?

00:47:41.040 All about how the constitution is years down the line

00:47:44.040 Years and years down the line

00:47:45.300 What they're going to do with their continental army

00:47:48.840 And their navy

00:47:49.740 And all sorts of the departments of state

00:47:52.640 And lots and lots of things

00:47:54.180 The Bill of Rights, etc, etc, etc

00:47:56.660 It's all years and years down the line

00:47:58.540 But they did come up with the name straight away at least

00:48:01.320 They did decide on that

00:48:03.080 Right off the bat.

00:48:05.140 Okay, on this day in 1817, Alexander Twilight,

00:48:11.220 likely the first African-American to graduate from a US college,

00:48:16.860 receives a BA degree from Middlebury College.

00:48:21.200 Does he? Does he? Okay.

00:48:25.280 Don't care.

00:48:26.660 On this day in 1914, first fully mechanised unit in the British Army is created,

00:48:31.180 the Canadian Automobile Machine Gun Brigade.

00:48:34.680 1914, that's early, isn't it?

00:48:36.280 Because there's no such thing as a tank yet, 1914.

00:48:40.560 You could have armoured cars.

00:48:43.680 Armoured cars with sort of mounted machine guns on.

00:48:46.240 In fact, I talked a bit about Allenby earlier, didn't I?

00:48:48.620 Field Marshal Allenby in the east.

00:48:51.320 In Egypt and...

00:48:53.620 Arabia.

00:48:58.400 And Lawrence of Arabia there, T.E. Lawrence.

00:48:59.980 Do you think I've got long-form content talking all about T.E. Lawrence, Lawrence of Arabia,

00:49:03.200 and his book, Seven Pillars of Wisdom, with Luca, in conversation with Luca,

00:49:07.120 two, three, or is it four-part episodes? Hours and hours and hours.

00:49:09.740 Good four hours plus talking about Lawrence of Arabia and the war in the East.

00:49:15.540 He had an armoured car, and it worked wonders,

00:49:22.840 going deep behind enemy lions in his armoured car,

00:49:25.460 A bit like what the SAS did in World War II

00:49:29.480 In the deserts of North Africa

00:49:30.680 Very, very similar in fact

00:49:32.640 Okay, on this day in 1993

00:49:36.220 Israel and the Palestinian Liberation Organisation

00:49:38.940 Exchange letters of mutual recognition

00:49:40.840 Yeah, how'd that work out for you?

00:49:44.380 That'll be part of the Oslo Accords, won't it?

00:49:47.460 And they get Yitzhak Rabin and Yasser Arafat

00:49:49.720 To shake hands on the lawn of the White House

00:49:51.860 Everyone's smiling, Bill Clinton's happy

00:49:54.240 Bill Clinton's happy

00:49:56.400 Yeah, it didn't work out so well

00:49:59.020 For everyone involved

00:50:00.500 What ultimately happened to Yitzhak Rabin?

00:50:05.480 What actually happened to him?

00:50:08.480 Oh yeah, he was murdered 1.00

00:50:09.860 By Israelis 1.00

00:50:11.100 Who refused to accept a two-state solution

00:50:13.920 Bill Clinton tries to do

00:50:19.560 Let's have a two-state solution

00:50:21.080 Let's force you to sit down at Camp David

00:50:23.720 Wherever 0.97

00:50:24.560 And we'll do a two state solution

00:50:27.580 Yeah

00:50:27.880 Much to the chagrin

00:50:30.160 Of Yitzhak Rabin

00:50:31.320 And Yasser Arafat

00:50:32.160 Eventually they're like

00:50:33.040 All right Bill

00:50:34.100 All right

00:50:35.520 Yasser Arafat never got

00:50:39.960 The Palestinians to truly accept it

00:50:42.220 In any real way

00:50:43.340 They feared and loathed him

00:50:46.420 They thought he was

00:50:47.300 Shaking hands with the devil

00:50:49.940 Shaking hands with

00:50:50.840 Just their implacable enemy

00:50:52.020 Many Israelis, many Jews thought exactly the same thing about Yitzhak Rabin 0.90

00:50:57.420 Why are you shaking Yasser Arafat's hand?

00:50:59.580 Why are you just giving away half-hour country there?

00:51:01.400 What have you done?

00:51:03.200 We'll get you for that

00:51:04.160 And they did

00:51:04.560 They murdered him on the street

00:51:06.120 Okay 0.87

00:51:08.240 Oh, but it's still a two-state solution

00:51:11.620 That's the only thing

00:51:12.420 Ed Miliband has decreed that there must be a two-state solution

00:51:16.020 Oh, alright

00:51:16.640 Or it's nothing to do with us and let them get on with it

00:51:22.020 All right, on this day in 2015, Queen Elizabeth II, our Queen, became Britain, Great Britain's

00:51:29.820 longest reigning monarch at 63 years and 7 months, beating the previous record set by

00:51:35.140 her great-great-grandmother, Queen Victoria.

00:51:38.140 There you go.

00:51:39.400 She goes on to rule for basically 70 years, isn't she? 1.00

00:51:42.760 So she smashed the PB. 1.00

00:51:45.080 She smashed the record. 0.98

00:51:49.020 Unlikely to be beaten any time soon.

00:51:52.020 you need a special set of circumstances

00:51:54.920 we would need a child

00:51:57.160 monarch wouldn't we

00:51:58.100 to

00:52:00.280 even hope to beat that record

00:52:02.940 alright

00:52:04.820 that's it

00:52:05.440 my screens keep blinking on and off

00:52:08.200 ok

00:52:09.680 it's gone 10-2, let's look at our rumble rants

00:52:12.860 and super chats, let me do this with my mic

00:52:38.300 All right, he said, he gives us two facts words usually, doesn't he?

00:52:43.020 He said, today in 337 AD, after deliberations since May,

00:52:48.900 St. Augustine the Great, sorry,

00:52:51.840 So Constantine the Great, Constantine the First, his sons, Constantine the Second, Constantius the Second, and Constans, became equal Augusti.

00:53:02.340 Yeah, so at the moment I've just finished, basically finished, a series all about Constantine the Great.

00:54:08.820 They had a system of four emperors, the Tetrarchy.

00:54:12.800 Cosentine is engaged, not necessarily kicking them all off himself,

00:54:16.340 although some he did kick off himself,

00:54:18.680 defeating all the other emperors in the Roman world,

00:54:44.940 In sort of audiobook level of detail

00:54:49.760 He of the Decline and Fall

00:54:51.720 Brilliant piece of prose

00:54:54.620 About Roman history

00:54:55.460 Absolutely brilliant

00:54:56.520 The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire

00:54:58.660 By Edward Gibbon

00:54:59.340 Heavily quoting from that

00:55:00.800 If you're interested in that

00:55:02.160 Go over there

00:55:03.180 Well

00:55:03.560 Global Church History says

00:55:06.720 That

00:55:07.400 Constantine decided

00:55:09.900 crazily, isn't this a crazy

00:55:12.140 decision, that 0.84

00:55:13.420 if or when he dies

00:55:16.060 he's going to split the empire up again

00:55:18.260 between his sons

00:55:19.100 hadn't the 0.88

00:55:22.300 Roman world just gone through

00:55:23.480 the crisis of the 3rd century and then another

00:55:26.020 crisis of the civil wars of Constantine

00:55:28.040 are you locking

00:55:30.080 that in again for the next generation

00:55:31.820 well done

00:55:34.120 Constantine, well done

00:55:35.180 great decision

00:55:36.760 that's funny didn't he have another son

00:55:40.060 wasn't his eldest son

00:55:41.840 Crispus

00:55:42.980 oh yeah he'd already been executed

00:55:45.200 Constantine had already executed his own eldest son

00:55:48.140 alright

00:55:51.360 and the second

00:55:53.960 factoid that global church history

00:55:56.160 gives us today is

00:55:57.400 you say in 1493

00:55:59.840 Columbus began his second voyage

00:56:02.060 interesting yeah because Columbus

00:56:03.720 first sailed across the Atlantic in 1492

00:56:06.580 But he did it, I believe, four times in his life

00:56:10.180 After one person had proven that it could be done 0.90

00:56:13.060 Probably Vikings had done it centuries before

00:56:17.740 But way more up north through sort of the Iceland route to Canada

00:56:21.700 But anyway, sailing straight across from Portugal or Spain

00:56:24.820 Straight across to the Caribbean

00:56:26.420 Columbus showed that it could be done

00:56:30.120 That you won't fall off the edge of the world

00:56:31.640 Not that anyone really thought that

00:56:33.220 Or some did, but most people knew that wouldn't be the case

00:56:35.860 He was trying to find the Indies wasn't he

00:56:38.920 He was trying to find the Spice Islands

00:56:40.700 What today we call South East Asia

00:56:42.300 Or Japan

00:56:43.360 And he landed in the Caribbean effectively

00:56:46.900 And after it was shown 1.00

00:56:48.820 It could be done

00:56:49.480 This is how long it will take

00:56:50.880 This is how far it is

00:56:51.860 As long as you've got enough water and food

00:56:53.900 You will be alright

00:56:55.680 As long as the storm doesn't wreck you

00:56:57.060 Then people started doing it quite a lot

00:56:59.140 Calamus himself did it four times

00:57:01.300 Okay

00:57:02.540 He told it on this day

00:57:03.920 he began his second voyage okay great next rumble rant we've got from stormy leathers

00:57:10.780 you say on this day in 2006 the film thank you for smoking was released

00:57:16.200 starting aaron urquhart i suppose you meant starring aaron urquhart and katie holmes the

00:57:23.320 ex-wife my screen keeps little harry we've got to sort this out it's not your fault i'm not saying

00:57:29.560 sure I thought I'm just saying before the podcast even it keeps flicking off anyway it's up for the

00:57:35.140 moment Katie Holmes and uh the ex-wife of famed Scientologist Tom Cruise and daughter of infamous

00:57:42.780 serial killer Eamon get well soon Eamon it's just a silly in joke I once terribly the worst blooper

00:57:51.000 on the history of Breakfast with Beau I once accidentally tried to talk about Hugh Edwards

00:57:56.600 but said Eamon Holmes

00:57:58.380 so I was effectively accusing Eamon Holmes

00:58:00.580 of the crimes of Hugh Edwards

00:58:01.900 complete fail

00:58:04.200 corrected myself straight away

00:58:06.780 well straight after the show

00:58:08.640 when it was brought to my attention what I had done

00:58:10.100 that's the thing with misspeaking

00:58:11.840 you don't hear yourself say it

00:58:13.580 because if you hear yourself say it

00:58:14.620 you correct yourself in real time

00:58:15.940 but my brain was thinking Hugh Edwards

00:58:18.600 I'm reading Hugh Edwards

00:58:19.780 but my mouth is saying Eamon Holmes 0.98

00:58:21.820 and I'm not recognising with my own ear balls 0.97

00:58:24.000 that I'm getting it wrong

00:58:24.800 Nowadays it's an in-joke on this show

00:58:28.140 To accuse Eamon Holmes of things he obviously didn't do

00:58:31.220 Terrible things he obviously didn't do

00:58:33.140 Even hundreds of years before he was born 0.62

00:58:35.200 And so that's why Stormy Leathers

00:58:40.000 Is accusing Eamon Holmes of being a serial killer

00:58:42.420 We know he's not

00:58:43.240 We know he's not

00:58:44.480 Get well soon, Eamon

00:58:45.460 In all honesty and all sincerity

00:58:48.080 Please do get well soon

00:58:50.320 He seems like a good guy, Eamon Holmes

00:58:53.060 I'd love a conversation with a man

00:58:55.300 poor old ames all right but he's he is the father of katie holmes

00:59:03.540 he's her dad also not true also not true okay

00:59:10.740 buzz all gin

00:59:14.180 that's what they've called themselves buzz all gin like buzz buzz aldrin i suppose

00:59:19.060 Buzz Al-Gin says,

00:59:21.960 Morning Bo, I am somewhat indifferent about the Gaza-Israel situation.

00:59:28.340 One must focus on matters at home and leave international affairs well alone.

00:59:32.720 Yeah, largely, largely, largely.

00:59:36.080 Sometimes, for various reasons, you can't.

00:59:40.920 But yeah, largely, I don't want to get involved in that endless land feud.

00:59:45.920 It will be an endless land feud.

00:59:49.060 Why are we sticking our oar in?

00:59:51.780 I just care about what happens at home.

00:59:53.900 Yeah, what happens to my own country, my own people.

00:59:56.180 That should be first.

00:59:58.480 That absolutely should be first priority.

01:00:01.760 Always.

01:00:02.880 Always.

01:00:06.100 My people first.

01:00:08.140 Not their 7th century blood feud.

01:01:23.860 When Benoit and Jericho had a long standing

01:01:28.440 They kept having matches against each other

01:01:30.040 That was good wrestling

01:01:30.880 Don't follow wrestling anymore

01:01:33.860 Haven't for years

01:01:34.560 But in the late 90s

01:01:36.800 Very, very early 2000s

01:02:26.720 work loads and i haven't i don't spend my evenings watching this anymore must have been around then

01:02:31.640 2002 or something long time ago now all right anyway picdog5150 says did you see that chap on

01:02:38.880 some news reports saying there is no evidence and no statistics to prove the replacement of natives

01:02:44.500 then he said the system would fail without the immigrants lol yeah i don't know who you're who 0.67

01:02:50.760 that's in reference to yeah you'll find some sort of crazy globalist some insane globalists saying 0.97

01:02:55.260 stuff like that still yeah the great replacement is just a conspiracy theory it's just a racist 0.77

01:02:59.600 bigger right-wing conspiracy theory it's just pure nazi fantasy that there's any sort of

01:03:04.960 replacement going on yeah most people still say that don't they yeah they're called traitors

01:03:09.740 they're called enemies of the people that's what those people are called but i don't know what

01:03:14.780 specific person you're talking about there i'm afraid okay 40 and barber says morning mate all

01:03:21.020 right yeah i'm all right are you all right hope you are he said i think we should stop copying

01:03:25.580 chris jericho people picked up on the chris jericho thing i think we should oh i think we

01:03:31.120 should start copying chris jericho and put countries who start acting badly towards us

01:03:36.300 on a list then inverted commas you put you're going on the list uk and anglosphere first

01:03:43.280 yeah i agree with that sentiment uk and anglosphere first yes yeah not israel first

01:03:50.060 not palestine first britain first england first anglosphere first yes it's not that complicated

01:03:59.760 is it richard tice wants me to worry about israel before i'm worried about britain no pass no

01:04:07.780 mentalist okay pig dog 515 so the next two and the last two rumble rants for today are both 0.66

01:04:15.340 pig dog and he says when we all i suppose you meant to put when are we all agreeing to ban 0.84

01:04:22.940 cults that follow men who do horrific things to kids imagine people arguing for the legal 0.97

01:04:27.940 existence and importation of a jimmy savile cult members and putting them in charge yeah

01:04:36.260 yeah and the second one you said put i answered no on the poll i i recommend

01:04:43.140 screenshot okay i recommend the british take it all back and take charge

01:04:47.380 once we get rid of the traitors at home you recommend the british take it all back 0.52

01:04:52.500 like the old un 1940s palestine mandate bit of territory yeah no thanks no thanks 0.80

01:05:03.240 more trouble than it's worth by orders of magnitude isn't it yeah anyway all right and now do the

01:05:11.700 youtube ones and harry's put them up on my big screen here because because my screen down here

01:05:18.560 embedded in this table is just totally totally smerging out so i'm going to read them off of here

01:05:25.080 all right mr gently benevolent in at number one today top of the pops mr gently benevolent says

01:05:34.100 poll needs a third option i don't care about either group uh of sand people and wish they

01:05:40.960 would both go away yeah we should have had that yeah yeah you're absolutely right that'd be the 0.91

01:05:47.340 That would be the option I'd be mashing.

01:05:49.940 Is that one?

01:05:51.720 Yeah.

01:05:54.860 Maybe we'll do another poll.

01:05:56.040 If and when this is in the news cycle again,

01:05:57.800 which it inevitably will be,

01:05:59.820 we'll do a similar poll,

01:06:01.300 and we'll put an option like that in there.

01:06:03.800 See how well that does.

01:06:06.260 Yeah.

01:06:07.100 Okay, Tiger, spelt T-Y-G-R-8,

01:06:14.100 Deus Vult, Christus Rex.

01:06:17.340 well that does there need to be a third crusade to save the church of the holy 1.00

01:06:21.900 sepulchre from non-christians

01:06:24.020 that's what the crusades are all about ultimately or nominally 0.95

01:06:30.620 the church of the holy sepulchre needs to be controlled by christians

01:06:37.300 all right cgmam8923 they're going to say something about india

01:06:43.820 says please tell Pitt William Pitt the younger it's about Harrison Pitt who's in today she's

01:06:50.920 meant to be in today don't know if he will be he should be should be said please tell Pitt

01:06:55.740 Harrison Pitt the 250,000 Britons work directly and 1 million indirectly for Indian companies in

01:07:03.000 UK not some office jobs but key sectors still autos batteries telecoms aluminium and oil

01:07:08.840 okay yeah i said i will do all right yeah i will do next one isn't so you

01:07:33.960 All right

01:07:38.060 Brendan Lucas 9723 says

01:07:40.640 Ironically, I don't think this about Jews 0.98

01:07:43.340 But Muslim votes in the Midlands 0.99

01:07:45.760 Who are holding Labour's grip on power hostage

01:07:49.120 Continued

01:07:50.780 Oh, the next one is also you

01:07:51.760 He said

01:07:52.980 The problem with this

01:07:54.180 Is this turns them into the primary political constituency

01:07:58.660 Which is ironic considering this is a nativist adjacent show

01:08:03.540 right okay the next one the next few next couple are also brandon lucas says it's moments like

01:08:13.740 this that while some in the chat might be happy israel is humbled this is more about a government

01:08:18.580 caring less about whites and more about the future majority it feels like lebanon 70 years ago

01:08:24.460 absolutely yeah absolutely related in the next one is also brandon lucas says related to this

01:08:31.140 my hometown Glasgow has been radically transformed by the waves of immigration 0.96

01:08:35.780 nightlife has been destroyed and it wasn't the Jews 1.00

01:08:39.360 okay well a number of points you made there 1.00

01:08:44.900 interesting and valid yeah so going back yeah that Labour

01:08:49.180 yeah Labour heavily relies on the the Islamic vote

01:08:52.940 is going to or does already heavily relies relies on the Islamic vote

01:08:57.060 not the jewish vote so they're leaning into that pandering to that yeah um what else what

01:09:06.420 other points did you make uh it's like lebanon 70 years ago yeah that's one of the things i've

01:09:14.140 kept saying haven't i it's almost like a mantra especially on state of politics

01:09:17.620 that we're staring down the barrel of a future sectarian nightmare along racial religious and 0.71

01:09:24.220 tribal lines, like Lebanon, yeah, that's why millions must go, millions must go, okay, 0.95

01:09:36.840 all right, next one, James Leapheavenhole says, how many are there, there's loads, there's

01:09:41.620 loads, all right, James Leapheavenhole says, tell us about, tell us about Lou and the Totha

01:09:51.660 did danan i don't know deities of these islands oh are they are they much much more pagan celtic

01:09:59.420 are they celtic deities uh how they defeated the formorians to bring priests to britain

01:10:08.780 and hyperborea i don't really know what you're talking about i'm afraid

01:10:15.820 uh mr gently benevolent says no one cares about harry wins a bow yeah i know 0.65

01:10:20.060 and his pathetic attempt to pretend he has hair 0.97

01:10:23.820 somehow makes him look more bald than you. 0.98

01:10:30.400 Yeah, if you're going bald and it's beyond a certain point,

01:10:33.580 just shave it off.

01:10:36.460 Yeah, I think Harry is at that point.

01:10:38.100 He should really go skinhead, shouldn't he?

01:10:40.560 Prince Harry.

01:10:43.220 Either start wearing a beanie like Tim Paul 24-7

01:10:46.200 or just lean into it and get over it and shave your head.

01:10:50.060 yeah I think Harry's at that point

01:10:52.120 next to

01:10:54.220 Brendan Lucas again

01:10:55.140 he says

01:10:55.820 I have my criticisms of the Israeli state

01:10:59.400 but why would Israel being a bit cheeky 1.00

01:11:02.140 moving people into E1

01:11:04.020 what's E1

01:11:04.780 like the postcode of London

01:11:06.960 into E1

01:11:08.240 and justify

01:11:11.160 any violence against the British Jews

01:11:13.360 some of which who don't even watch television

01:11:16.140 Let me read that again

01:11:22.660 A bit cheeky moving people into E1

01:11:27.380 Are you talking about the Israeli state NGOs

01:11:34.940 Or various organisations that actually advocate for

01:11:38.580 Is this what you're talking about?

01:11:42.060 Advocate for migration to this country 0.98

01:11:44.480 And East London, like E1 0.99

01:11:46.380 Places like Whitechapel

01:11:47.740 Upton Park, Pasto, whatever

01:11:49.380 Bow, by road 1.00

01:11:50.760 Being flooded by Muslims 1.00

01:11:53.360 Are you characterising that as being a bit cheeky? 1.00

01:11:59.560 Is that what you're talking about?

01:12:00.520 Have I missed the point there terribly?

01:12:02.160 I fear I might have missed the point

01:12:03.300 If that is your point

01:12:04.420 I wouldn't characterise that as a bit cheeky

01:12:07.220 If that's what you're saying

01:12:10.440 I'd characterise that as a 1.00

01:12:14.500 Hyena's crime against this 1.00

01:12:16.120 Country 0.90

01:12:16.900 Brandon Lucas, next one also says

01:12:20.800 Also the Scott education results

01:12:24.600 Are a genuine scandal

01:12:25.740 SMP education minister said

01:12:28.080 PISA rankings

01:12:29.780 P-I-S-A rankings

01:12:31.700 Don't measure artistic expression

01:13:21.660 read question mark to be fair no i'm not gonna read that it's not that bad but that might it's

01:13:29.040 funny by the way obviously it's just an an anti-welsh anti-welsh sentiment to do with sheep

01:13:36.720 uh it's probably best if i don't read it out it's unlikely the channel would get demonetized

01:13:42.600 but it might in my heart and i've got nothing but love in my heart for the welsh i myself am

01:13:51.200 a quarter welsh my mum was half welsh and her father was a full-blown welshman you see you

01:13:56.360 i've got no prejudice against the welsh but i guess i'm just not gonna i'm not gonna read that

01:14:02.660 out help me out here guys there's t's and c's it's my job not to get the channel demonetized

01:17:52.820 As you might have guessed, he's sort of anti-Belgian.

01:18:15.780 I shouldn't sing, people said I shouldn't sing

01:18:18.320 sometimes I can't help it, it's sort of spontaneous

01:18:20.700 but I won't, I will spare you

01:18:22.880 Pussycat's not a bad song though is it

01:18:25.160 actually in a

01:18:27.160 Welsh tenor

01:18:47.400 in 2027 we'll see real famine in third world and very high food prices in ones I guess you

01:18:56.840 mean first world countries you mean yeah you may well be right yeah I do remember you I do 0.99

01:19:02.240 remember that and i remember saying i don't think that's likely or going to be the case but it could

01:19:06.780 be i think that's what i said didn't i i said i'm not ruling it out i'm not saying you're definitely

01:19:10.300 wrong and you're crazy that's a crazy idea crazy take i said i don't necessarily think so but

01:19:15.820 it might do you could be right you could well be right i think i said that didn't i

01:19:19.160 okay so you're saying famine in the third world

01:19:22.640 wait now this screen's spazzing out a bit where was i it's gone crazy on me

01:19:29.220 Okay, Tatum found it

01:19:36.220 In the first, yeah

01:19:37.020 Yeah

01:19:38.660 I mean that's almost certainly correct

01:19:41.300 I would have thought

01:19:42.180 Alright, the next one is also Tatum who says

01:19:46.020 If wrong, I won't rule the world

01:19:48.700 And you stay bald

01:19:49.800 Because we all know

01:19:52.000 When Tatum rules the world

01:19:53.480 I'm going to have hair, he said

01:19:55.820 He's decreed a couple of times now

01:19:57.940 don't know whether he means i have to wear a wig or he's going to make me magically grow hair again

01:20:05.220 i don't know the policy isn't entirely fleshed out at this point tatum's insisting i'm going

01:20:11.900 to have hair though unless he fails to become hegemon of the world in which case i can stay

01:20:17.280 bald okay three more carmichael cookie dough foot job that's their name carmichael underscore

01:20:51.640 red meat maybe, I don't know

01:20:53.160 I'd have to think very carefully it's a serious answer

01:20:56.740 Cherry flavoured pez
