Summary

This is not an episode I wanted to make, but I feel that I have to make it because from what I can tell, nobody is seeing what is happening in the UK clearly, and from what commentators are saying, nobody seems to be able to see it clearly.


Transcript

00:00:00.220 Hello and welcome to Brokernomics. Now this is an episode that I don't really want to make.
00:00:09.520 In fact I've been for the last hour or so fiddling around with a camera battery and
00:00:15.960 god knows what else trying to think of a decent excuse not to not to make it. This is not an
00:00:21.780 episode I want to make it's more like an episode that I feel that I I kind of have to make because
00:00:27.080 from what I can tell recent events nobody is seeing this clearly I mean perhaps one or two
00:00:35.120 commentators do but for the vast majority the government included they do not understand
00:00:42.880 clearly what is happening and so I kind of feel that I have to I have to make this one and it's
00:00:50.000 and it's not going to be a good one. I like with my content to try and give you something upbeat
00:00:55.500 something positive where possible a bit fun and light-hearted but this is this is not going to
00:01:03.600 be one of those episodes so I'm afraid this is going to be a bit bleak and the subject matter is
00:01:08.160 going to be bleak and what I'm going to be talking about is the current situation in the UK there has
00:01:16.340 been something like 17 stabbings in the last 48 hours and I don't believe and I think what they
00:01:23.660 mean by the the stabbings I think they I think they mean just fatal stabbings
00:01:29.980 not including the the three children I think that counts as just just one incident and of course
00:01:37.440 in in in that case which we will talk about and we must talk about in more detail because everybody
00:01:43.040 else's has brushed over it and kind of moved past it but I'm not willing to do that
00:01:48.320 a room full of children at a dance class little girls were attacked by a man with a machete
00:01:56.220 three of them killed and other children grievously grievously injured in a machete attack on children
00:02:07.960 um that happened a few days ago and it has been seized upon it has been used um this isn't the
00:02:20.880 episode I was going to make in fact I wasn't going to make an episode this week I've I've been a bit
00:02:24.460 ill uh top tip by the way don't get ill when it's hot it's that's not good um and I and I wasn't
00:02:32.560 actually going to make an episode this week um I thought the viewers will understand you know I
00:02:38.480 can take one week off I don't think I've missed an episode yet I've kept them weekly but I've just
00:02:44.620 watched a statement from the prime minister and I feel that I have to I have to make this I have to
00:02:53.700 talk about this we are in dangerous times we are in very dangerous times
00:02:58.400 prime minister's statement was
00:03:04.520 an acceleration of the total state more facial recognition
00:03:12.040 uh digital id I don't think he highlighted that specifically but that will almost certainly be
00:03:19.160 be part of it absolutist uh police response a crackdown on the far right um who are the far
00:03:28.200 right well it never gets defined when I was a younger man the far right basically meant
00:03:36.180 people who thought that the mustache man of the 1930s was a was a good egg and had the right idea
00:03:43.340 these days the far right apparently means people who are upset with children being butchered
00:03:53.280 with machete and want to focus on that that that that is apparently the the encompassment of the far
00:04:01.060 right at this point um people have been driven to fury over countless attacks and it's been a long
00:04:11.920 thing coming of course we had those tens of thousands of rapes of of children that the government pretty
00:04:19.960 much covered up i thought that could be a breaking point it didn't happen then but um you know we're
00:04:26.680 now at the stage where what was it a year ago we had um young students butchered
00:04:33.540 and now it's children but the prime minister didn't want to talk about that
00:04:39.780 he mentioned them only in passing
00:04:44.520 you know he referred to grieving families so they got a they got a tangential reference but
00:04:52.240 he was not upset about that or at least he made no effort to appear as if he was upset about that
00:05:01.720 he was upset about other things um his highest concern was stamping out far right we're going to need
00:05:14.260 to come on and talk about what he actually means by that what is actually going on here
00:05:22.200 um he was also concerned with giving warnings to tech billionaires
00:05:28.100 um who operate social media he he means elon musk he didn't he didn't name him but uh he he means
00:05:36.860 elon musk elon has opened up twitter in a way that allows people like me people like you to speak
00:05:46.700 more freely than we could have done and call out government mistakes call out the social decay
00:05:53.040 and he's clearly not a fan of that so he took aim at him and and gave warning shots uh this is a
00:06:02.720 obviously coordinated effort along with you know the eu has been uh very belligerent on this
00:06:11.640 and um now that we have a labor government it seems that um britain is going to coordinate
00:06:18.920 with those forces um to do what they can do to to bring elon to hill to not allow people to speak
00:06:26.260 freely about their concerns uh the prime minister was also um very much interested in reassuring the
00:06:34.180 muslim community and thank goodness we we don't want the muslim community to be feeling unsafe
00:06:40.720 there was no mention at all not even once of reassuring the native population that our children
00:06:52.160 would be safe none of the journalists asked that question either they had plenty of opportunity
00:07:00.200 i think his statement was only about five minutes long he then gave 15 minutes to questions
00:07:05.100 not a single one of them asked how are you going to keep our children safe
00:07:11.340 for them
00:07:14.340 it simply doesn't merit a mention we need to talk about why that is
00:07:22.060 um he also focused on like many establishments left-wing commentators have done
00:07:31.940 on what they see as coordination that the riots that came in response
00:07:40.640 to the murder of the little girls had to be coordinated
00:07:45.940 and we need to talk about that because we need to understand what's going on here
00:07:52.600 essentially what he was doing was he was explaining that he was going to use this opportunity
00:07:59.920 to dismantle the support networks of his political enemies
00:08:05.180 um and i want to get into all of that
00:08:10.120 the media um like i mentioned had no concern
00:08:15.640 for the murder of the children
00:08:19.220 they seem to understand their part very well
00:08:23.080 they were very keen to turn this uh again to their political enemies
00:08:29.900 the political enemies of the of the establishment
00:08:32.720 they wanted to talk about nigel farage
00:08:35.060 they wanted to talk about twitter
00:08:38.440 you know they
00:08:40.260 they did their part
00:08:42.460 perfectly
00:08:44.820 because that is what the media is these days
00:08:47.140 it is a it is an extension of government
00:08:50.920 to advance for things that the government wants to talk about
00:08:55.300 and i can't help but thinking that
00:09:00.640 these
00:09:04.240 elites the the political establishment and those who identify with these
00:09:10.160 political elites you know their lackeys their hanger-ons
00:09:14.320 that you see them on media you see them in the media you see them on twitter
00:09:18.020 um
00:09:19.380 they all owe the man who attacked those little girls a deep
00:09:23.880 debt of gratitude
00:09:24.980 because he has given them an opportunity
00:09:28.420 to do
00:09:29.980 all of the things that they
00:09:32.700 wanted to do
00:09:34.420 and they are going to take advantage
00:09:36.460 of this opportunity
00:09:38.500 and the rage
00:09:40.480 that the british people feel
00:09:42.100 knowing
00:09:43.600 knowing that there will be no
00:09:48.120 satisfactory
00:09:48.900 response there will be no
00:09:51.480 well as i said the media doesn't even want to talk about how we're going to
00:09:55.180 keep our children safe
00:09:56.120 so
00:10:00.320 look before i get into it
00:10:01.940 the first thing i need to do is is thank our audience
00:10:05.280 because
00:10:06.340 there are very few
00:10:09.280 outlets
00:10:10.500 where people can
00:10:12.940 push back against the official line
00:10:15.520 lotus eaters is one of them
00:10:18.060 and we can only do it because
00:10:22.040 you support us
00:10:23.640 and
00:10:24.960 if any of you are
00:10:26.880 are watching the preview of this episode on
00:10:29.020 on on youtube or
00:10:30.500 elsewhere
00:10:32.060 um
00:10:33.620 if you can support us i would
00:10:36.080 very much appreciate it
00:10:37.840 nobody at the lotus eaters is
00:10:40.480 is doing this
00:10:41.340 for money
00:10:42.000 um
00:10:43.740 everything is
00:10:47.000 i mean we're doing okay
00:10:48.920 but everything is tight
00:10:50.140 because
00:10:50.780 obviously running
00:10:52.140 several studios
00:10:53.500 and lots of staff
00:10:54.700 it
00:10:54.900 it does cost
00:10:56.360 there's lots of other costs
00:10:57.920 as well
00:10:58.640 um
00:11:00.520 and those of you who support us
00:11:02.640 you know it's
00:11:03.240 it's five pounds a month
00:11:04.360 it's not
00:11:04.840 it's not a big ask
00:11:06.380 if you feel that
00:11:08.360 what we do
00:11:09.380 is important
00:11:10.920 if you feel that it is valuable
00:11:12.880 to have
00:11:14.400 an outlet
00:11:15.640 which
00:11:16.440 does not tow
00:11:17.860 the standard government line
00:11:19.580 that can push back on some of this stuff
00:11:21.240 um
00:11:22.600 you know
00:11:23.980 if you're not already
00:11:25.520 supporting us
00:11:26.260 please do
00:11:26.880 because it it it's not
00:11:28.800 much
00:11:29.800 from you
00:11:30.620 but it it does make a difference
00:11:32.420 and if we
00:11:33.080 if if we can't fund something like this
00:11:35.980 then
00:11:36.740 you know
00:11:38.120 it it won't exist
00:11:39.440 so thank you if you're already supporting
00:11:41.900 and if you're not
00:11:42.540 please consider it
00:11:43.900 it's it's not a lot of money
00:11:45.020 just
00:11:45.340 just come over to
00:11:46.220 lotus eaters.com
00:11:47.200 and
00:11:47.780 and sign up
00:11:48.640 even if it's
00:11:49.220 even if it's the standard five pounds a month
00:11:51.280 it it really does make a difference
00:11:52.940 it was clear from the prime minister statement
00:11:55.880 that people like us
00:11:57.140 are
00:11:58.040 now in the crosshairs
00:11:59.200 not
00:12:01.500 not the people who attack children
00:12:05.860 but
00:12:09.160 people like us
00:12:10.220 so
00:12:12.800 the episode that I was going to do
00:12:14.680 next
00:12:15.600 um
00:12:16.520 I was going to talk about my own political journey
00:12:18.460 because
00:12:20.880 for 25 years
00:12:23.100 I've been involved in politics
00:12:25.540 and I can't say that I've been involved in politics at a high level
00:12:28.040 but I've certainly been
00:12:29.020 involved with people who
00:12:30.960 who have been involved
00:12:31.980 in politics at a high level
00:12:33.360 I've worked in the house of commons
00:12:35.260 I've worked on
00:12:36.500 leadership campaigns
00:12:37.940 I've you know
00:12:38.900 fought in elections
00:12:39.920 and
00:12:41.860 over those 25 years
00:12:44.000 I've seen
00:12:45.360 the evolution
00:12:46.980 of
00:12:49.460 the political tone and tenor
00:12:51.220 in this country
00:12:52.300 from
00:12:54.180 and
00:12:54.920 and I'm
00:12:55.380 and I'm not very good at
00:12:56.500 labels
00:12:57.300 so I don't know what to call it
00:12:58.360 but whatever
00:12:58.900 whatever form of
00:13:00.380 democracy
00:13:01.060 that we had
00:13:02.680 25 years ago
00:13:03.960 um
00:13:05.420 that is very much coming to an end
00:13:07.580 and the conclusion of the story
00:13:11.960 that I was going to tell
00:13:12.800 in the video that I was going to make next
00:13:14.260 was that
00:13:16.620 we are in the latest stages
00:13:19.280 of this thing
00:13:20.600 and something new is about to come
00:13:23.160 and it is going to be
00:13:25.260 very likely
00:13:27.080 um
00:13:28.480 darker
00:13:29.060 now maybe it's darkest before the storm
00:13:30.840 maybe something comes out of that
00:13:32.060 but
00:13:32.920 we're going to focus on the short term
00:13:35.060 in this episode
00:13:35.960 and the short term is
00:13:37.300 is rather bleak
00:13:38.800 but instead of
00:13:44.660 doing that
00:13:46.000 and coming to the conclusion
00:13:49.040 that we're in the late stages
00:13:50.540 maybe the end stages
00:13:53.180 of what we did have
00:13:56.080 I was then going to come on to
00:13:57.780 various predictions
00:13:58.620 about
00:14:00.040 what is likely to happen next
00:14:02.800 and one of those predictions
00:14:05.100 was
00:14:06.140 an increase
00:14:07.100 in
00:14:07.820 exactly this
00:14:09.540 uh
00:14:10.740 secretarian
00:14:11.500 uh
00:14:13.020 ethnic based
00:14:14.000 conflict
00:14:15.140 and I thought that was going to be coming
00:14:17.620 over the next
00:14:18.300 over the course of the next decade perhaps
00:14:20.380 but then it happened straight away
00:14:22.680 you know
00:14:23.700 it happened this week
00:14:24.360 so
00:14:26.780 before I move on
00:14:28.080 with the analysis
00:14:29.260 we have to talk about the attack
00:14:32.960 because everybody else
00:14:33.940 like I say
00:14:34.380 has
00:14:34.680 has already moved past it
00:14:35.880 and I
00:14:36.220 and I can't do that
00:14:37.220 a
00:14:40.160 a young man
00:14:43.180 17 apparently
00:14:44.180 um
00:14:46.940 a Rwandan
00:14:48.600 born to Rwandan parents
00:14:50.740 but born in Wales
00:14:52.760 walked
00:14:57.220 into
00:14:58.220 what must have been a premeditated attack
00:15:01.160 because
00:15:01.780 you know
00:15:02.640 he went to a dance class
00:15:04.160 and you wouldn't have known
00:15:05.560 where this dance class was
00:15:06.600 it was I mean
00:15:07.040 it was up an alley
00:15:07.680 it was
00:15:08.180 it was
00:15:09.520 it was not an obvious place to find
00:15:11.260 he walked into it
00:15:13.460 with a machete
00:15:14.000 and attacked those children
00:15:14.940 and that hits really hard
00:15:18.040 I mean
00:15:19.500 it would hit
00:15:19.900 anyone hard
00:15:21.140 any
00:15:21.600 decent human being
00:15:22.960 would be shocked
00:15:23.440 and appalled by this
00:15:24.300 but
00:15:24.660 trust me
00:15:26.420 if you don't already have children
00:15:27.740 once you have children
00:15:28.900 it hits
00:15:30.040 even harder
00:15:31.840 I mean
00:15:33.540 in my case
00:15:34.080 I've got
00:15:34.420 two young daughters
00:15:35.300 and
00:15:37.480 they don't go anymore
00:15:39.460 but
00:15:39.860 for a couple of years
00:15:41.320 they did go to a dance class
00:15:42.900 very similar to this
00:15:44.120 in a nearby city
00:15:46.460 and
00:15:48.820 you know
00:15:50.400 just for thought
00:15:51.180 that
00:15:51.580 it could have been them
00:15:54.580 is quite galling
00:15:57.100 and horrifying
00:15:57.760 they used to go together
00:16:01.080 as well
00:16:01.480 I mean
00:16:01.760 they're slightly different ages
00:16:03.020 but they used to go together
00:16:04.060 you know
00:16:05.260 in a different timeline
00:16:06.120 I could be dealing with
00:16:07.820 with that
00:16:09.840 it is
00:16:10.440 you know
00:16:11.080 one of the most
00:16:12.040 horrific
00:16:13.220 senseless
00:16:16.560 brutal
00:16:17.700 evil attacks
00:16:19.560 that I can think of
00:16:22.600 I mean
00:16:23.840 you have to go back to
00:16:25.080 the Dunblane massacre
00:16:27.340 of
00:16:27.760 was that
00:16:29.800 30
00:16:30.300 30 plus years ago
00:16:32.680 where a man
00:16:34.000 walked into a school
00:16:34.740 with a shotgun
00:16:35.260 and
00:16:35.620 killed children
00:16:36.740 it's
00:16:37.540 it's of that level
00:16:38.420 it is a
00:16:39.260 it was a truly
00:16:43.580 shocking thing
00:16:45.240 and losing children
00:16:46.520 it is
00:16:47.220 it is the worst imaginable thing
00:16:52.300 you know
00:16:54.160 if you
00:16:54.440 if you have children
00:16:55.260 they are your continuation
00:16:58.620 you know
00:16:59.160 you
00:16:59.480 as you start to get older
00:17:01.380 you come to terms
00:17:03.600 with the fact
00:17:04.100 that you are
00:17:04.800 mortal
00:17:05.500 your time is
00:17:07.300 limited
00:17:07.720 but having children
00:17:11.020 gives you a certain
00:17:13.560 peace with that
00:17:14.200 you're
00:17:15.160 you're
00:17:15.600 you're okay with it
00:17:16.640 because you know
00:17:17.300 that your children
00:17:17.980 will endure
00:17:18.500 and they will go on
00:17:19.320 into the future
00:17:20.020 if your
00:17:21.880 children are
00:17:24.020 murdered
00:17:24.380 it's
00:17:26.440 it's like being
00:17:27.200 deleted from the
00:17:27.940 timeline
00:17:28.400 a
00:17:36.820 horrific event
00:17:39.000 so
00:17:41.120 we have
00:17:43.800 we have to remember
00:17:44.480 the attack
00:17:44.980 the response
00:17:47.400 to the attack
00:17:48.000 was
00:17:51.380 rioting
00:17:53.180 in the town
00:17:55.520 where it happened
00:17:56.100 although there are
00:17:56.840 reports that
00:17:57.680 a lot of the people
00:17:58.980 involved in it
00:17:59.680 aren't local
00:18:01.260 to the town
00:18:01.920 they came in
00:18:02.680 in another location
00:18:04.920 and also in London
00:18:06.400 fighting the police
00:18:08.720 now I don't
00:18:11.240 advocate
00:18:11.720 obviously for those
00:18:13.140 riots
00:18:14.740 I'm against them
00:18:15.820 I'm against attacking
00:18:16.780 police of course
00:18:17.560 but I understand
00:18:23.420 where these people
00:18:25.120 are
00:18:25.420 they have seen
00:18:29.300 many attacks
00:18:30.540 like this
00:18:31.000 they've even seen
00:18:32.000 attacks on children
00:18:32.820 and they don't have
00:18:35.280 a platform
00:18:35.740 they don't have
00:18:36.500 a way to
00:18:37.240 speak to people
00:18:38.180 and get out
00:18:38.700 their thoughts
00:18:39.880 on this
00:18:40.400 they thought
00:18:42.960 that
00:18:43.340 you know
00:18:47.840 I think they
00:18:49.160 thought correctly
00:18:49.880 but the official
00:18:51.660 response would be
00:18:52.360 okay we're going
00:18:52.820 to do an
00:18:53.120 investigation
00:18:53.520 and then we
00:18:54.500 have a trial
00:18:55.100 there would be
00:18:58.580 no mention
00:19:00.100 of mass
00:19:00.480 immigration
00:19:00.940 because
00:19:03.020 of all of
00:19:04.020 these attacks
00:19:04.600 that are taking
00:19:05.140 place
00:19:05.560 they're almost
00:19:06.120 almost exclusively
00:19:08.780 people who have
00:19:10.940 come to this
00:19:12.180 country
00:19:12.480 and those attacks
00:19:13.500 would not have
00:19:13.960 taken place
00:19:14.480 if they had not
00:19:15.380 come to this
00:19:17.300 country
00:19:17.580 and there will never
00:19:19.540 be any discussion
00:19:20.240 of that
00:19:20.600 so the people
00:19:22.500 who are
00:19:23.100 gripped as I am
00:19:26.480 with just this
00:19:27.160 deep sense of dread
00:19:29.060 that we've reached
00:19:30.260 a point in this
00:19:30.900 country where
00:19:31.460 children are getting
00:19:32.320 massacred
00:19:32.800 I mean not just
00:19:33.280 children
00:19:33.560 it's desperately
00:19:37.020 upsetting when it's
00:19:37.820 children
00:19:37.980 but like I said
00:19:38.460 there's been 17
00:19:39.180 stabbings in the
00:19:39.840 last 48 hours
00:19:40.740 you know we had
00:19:41.380 an army colonel
00:19:42.380 lieutenant colonel
00:19:45.040 stabbed in the
00:19:45.820 streets
00:19:46.200 multiple other
00:19:46.940 people
00:19:47.360 I mean it's just
00:19:48.060 it is just
00:19:48.800 something you have
00:19:49.320 to deal with
00:19:49.700 in this country
00:19:51.180 these days
00:19:51.820 that you might
00:19:53.440 encounter somebody
00:19:54.260 who almost
00:19:56.100 certainly
00:19:56.480 does not have
00:19:58.080 a lineage
00:19:58.460 in this country
00:19:59.280 who may kill
00:20:01.180 you
00:20:01.400 or your children
00:20:02.540 and people
00:20:06.180 understand that
00:20:07.100 they will be
00:20:08.520 brushed off
00:20:09.060 they will be
00:20:10.320 told it was an
00:20:10.880 isolated incident
00:20:11.720 it was a mental
00:20:12.460 health thing
00:20:13.080 and if you've
00:20:15.820 got a problem
00:20:16.280 with that
00:20:16.660 well in four
00:20:17.440 years time
00:20:18.040 you get to
00:20:19.380 walk into
00:20:19.820 another
00:20:20.200 polling booth
00:20:21.600 and mark
00:20:23.100 another cross
00:20:23.640 and that is
00:20:25.640 your only
00:20:26.380 legitimate
00:20:27.460 outlet
00:20:27.960 and by the
00:20:31.460 way you can
00:20:31.880 vote for
00:20:32.200 people
00:20:32.620 who are
00:20:33.720 sufficiently
00:20:35.220 sanitized
00:20:35.960 that the
00:20:37.560 electoral
00:20:37.880 commission
00:20:38.440 deems them
00:20:40.160 worthy to be
00:20:40.980 able to enter
00:20:41.600 the political
00:20:42.120 process
00:20:42.780 and even
00:20:46.660 then
00:20:47.100 you know
00:20:49.340 even
00:20:49.840 fairly
00:20:50.880 milk toast
00:20:51.820 options like
00:20:53.060 reform
00:20:53.660 even
00:20:56.660 they will
00:20:57.000 be attacked
00:20:57.420 at every
00:20:57.720 opportunity
00:20:58.260 have their
00:20:58.760 bank account
00:20:59.300 shut down
00:20:59.880 you know
00:21:01.540 this is
00:21:01.840 very much
00:21:02.240 a managed
00:21:02.940 democracy
00:21:03.920 where those
00:21:05.920 who advocate
00:21:07.120 for things
00:21:07.820 that the
00:21:08.940 ruling elites
00:21:09.480 consider
00:21:09.860 particularly
00:21:10.340 important
00:21:10.780 are simply
00:21:11.380 not allowed
00:21:11.920 to engage
00:21:13.100 with the
00:21:14.340 process
00:21:14.680 so effectively
00:21:15.460 people knew
00:21:16.160 that their
00:21:17.140 options were
00:21:17.880 shut up and
00:21:19.360 forget about
00:21:19.860 it
00:21:20.100 just wait
00:21:22.220 for the
00:21:22.520 next one
00:21:23.000 and there
00:21:25.060 was an
00:21:25.280 explosion of
00:21:25.860 anger and
00:21:26.780 of course I
00:21:27.960 don't condone
00:21:28.640 the rioting
00:21:29.960 but
00:21:30.380 what else are
00:21:33.780 these people
00:21:34.160 going to do
00:21:34.660 just wait
00:21:36.920 four years
00:21:37.480 to tick
00:21:37.860 another
00:21:38.060 box
00:21:38.460 when you
00:21:41.400 remove
00:21:41.980 all other
00:21:43.420 options but
00:21:44.180 violence
00:21:44.720 people are
00:21:47.520 left with
00:21:47.800 violence
00:21:48.220 people like
00:21:50.400 me and
00:21:50.740 other voices
00:21:51.420 on the
00:21:51.720 right have
00:21:52.260 for years
00:21:52.900 been
00:21:53.460 warning
00:21:54.320 that this
00:21:57.580 is the
00:21:57.900 inevitable
00:21:59.020 result
00:22:00.740 of denying
00:22:03.000 these
00:22:03.240 denying
00:22:04.420 people's
00:22:05.000 concerns
00:22:05.360 on this
00:22:05.940 matter
00:22:06.280 they don't
00:22:08.700 have
00:22:09.120 anything
00:22:11.020 else
00:22:11.480 why is
00:22:14.340 that
00:22:14.520 this is
00:22:16.840 the thing
00:22:17.060 you need
00:22:17.280 to understand
00:22:17.760 the
00:22:18.120 native
00:22:20.800 population
00:22:21.380 are
00:22:22.040 the
00:22:23.180 enemy
00:22:23.460 the
00:22:26.880 immigrants
00:22:27.380 are
00:22:27.920 the
00:22:28.740 clients
00:22:29.120 of the
00:22:29.440 state
00:22:29.720 think about
00:22:32.000 this in
00:22:32.320 medieval
00:22:32.640 terms
00:22:33.120 let's
00:22:34.940 say you
00:22:35.260 have a
00:22:35.780 king or
00:22:38.020 lord come
00:22:38.560 to power
00:22:39.000 who is
00:22:41.220 he most
00:22:41.640 concerned
00:22:42.100 about
00:22:42.420 it is
00:22:43.980 those who
00:22:45.120 have a
00:22:45.840 legitimate
00:22:47.300 claim
00:22:48.300 to his
00:22:49.760 title
00:22:50.080 it's why
00:22:53.420 you often
00:22:54.420 saw
00:22:55.100 younger
00:22:55.700 brothers
00:22:56.160 meeting
00:22:57.060 nasty
00:22:58.000 accidents
00:22:58.460 after the
00:22:59.240 new king
00:23:00.060 came to
00:23:00.500 the throne
00:23:00.860 because
00:23:01.360 the
00:23:01.940 younger
00:23:02.120 brother
00:23:02.400 has a
00:23:02.720 legitimate
00:23:03.040 claim
00:23:03.600 you're
00:23:06.360 especially
00:23:06.800 concerned
00:23:07.420 of
00:23:08.320 people
00:23:08.720 that you
00:23:09.040 don't
00:23:09.280 know
00:23:09.600 you don't
00:23:10.840 know well
00:23:11.320 who are
00:23:11.720 outside of
00:23:12.400 your sphere
00:23:12.880 of influence
00:23:13.500 who also
00:23:13.920 have a
00:23:14.500 claim to
00:23:15.840 your throne
00:23:16.400 or your
00:23:16.820 title
00:23:17.200 these are
00:23:19.360 people that
00:23:19.900 must be
00:23:20.440 dealt with
00:23:20.780 and always
00:23:21.340 were dealt
00:23:21.800 with
00:23:22.020 incredibly
00:23:22.740 harshly
00:23:23.700 we live
00:23:26.320 in a
00:23:26.480 democracy
00:23:26.900 where in
00:23:28.480 theory
00:23:28.800 anyone
00:23:29.280 can
00:23:30.720 engage
00:23:32.780 in the
00:23:33.040 political
00:23:33.300 process
00:23:33.820 and assume
00:23:37.360 political
00:23:38.140 power and
00:23:38.600 all the
00:23:38.860 spoils that
00:23:39.360 go with
00:23:39.640 it
00:23:39.820 so the
00:23:41.420 native
00:23:42.120 population
00:23:42.760 have a
00:23:43.840 claim
00:23:44.140 to political
00:23:47.180 power and
00:23:47.640 the spoils
00:23:48.080 that go
00:23:48.360 with it
00:23:48.700 and
00:23:50.660 therefore
00:23:51.000 they are
00:23:51.480 the enemy
00:23:52.280 because they
00:23:53.100 can take
00:23:53.620 away
00:23:54.020 what the
00:23:55.420 political
00:23:55.900 elite
00:23:56.360 value the
00:23:57.760 most
00:23:58.020 which is
00:23:58.400 their power
00:23:58.940 and influence
00:23:59.880 and everything
00:24:00.300 that goes
00:24:00.700 along with
00:24:01.100 it
00:24:01.360 whereas
00:24:04.340 the
00:24:04.920 immigrant
00:24:05.340 population
00:24:05.980 generally
00:24:07.100 don't make
00:24:07.700 those
00:24:07.960 claims
00:24:08.400 they're
00:24:13.260 clients
00:24:13.700 of the
00:24:15.180 state
00:24:15.460 they're
00:24:16.920 actually
00:24:17.120 quite
00:24:17.340 useful
00:24:17.720 to the
00:24:19.120 state
00:24:19.400 because
00:24:20.620 there will
00:24:20.980 be
00:24:21.360 this
00:24:22.640 sort
00:24:22.880 of
00:24:23.360 consistent
00:24:25.800 normally
00:24:28.360 low
00:24:28.640 level
00:24:28.960 agitation
00:24:29.900 between
00:24:30.300 the
00:24:30.460 native
00:24:30.680 population
00:24:31.280 and the
00:24:32.720 new
00:24:32.880 populations
00:24:33.440 have been
00:24:33.740 brought
00:24:34.020 in
00:24:34.280 sometimes
00:24:34.960 it will
00:24:35.260 be quite
00:24:35.580 harmonious
00:24:36.220 but
00:24:36.480 as we
00:24:37.740 can see
00:24:38.180 often
00:24:38.800 it is
00:24:39.760 not
00:24:40.040 harmonious
00:24:40.640 and it
00:24:42.420 distracts
00:24:43.140 the average
00:24:43.760 people
00:24:44.220 from
00:24:44.860 focusing
