Hello and welcome to Brokonomics. Now, in this episode I am absolutely delighted to invite
0.90
00:00:06.200
returning guest Richard Murphy, my favourite YouTuber in the entire world. He's made a video
00:00:13.280
about Restore Britain, Rupert Lowe's party, and I haven't seen it yet, but I reckon it's going to
00:00:19.400
be so good because his videos are always quite superb. We did that one, didn't we, a few episodes
00:00:25.140
ago on his magic money tree theory, and I kind of picked that apart a bit. But I honestly do
00:00:30.620
absolutely love this man. Richard, if you're watching, please come on the show because I think
00:00:35.440
you're absolutely fantastic, and I'm sure you are not going to disappoint us in this one.
00:00:41.360
Let's find out what you've got to say about Restore Britain.
00:00:45.500
This video is about something that really matters to me. It's about fascism. It's about the risk of
00:00:52.120
fascism in the UK. It's about the risk, in particular, from somebody called Rupert Lowe,
00:00:56.900
who is the MP for Great Yarmouth, who has issued a paper proposing that all, as he calls them,
00:01:03.460
undocumented migrants in the UK be expelled from the country. But that isn't one.
00:01:09.480
That's what I love about Richard. I mean, no set up, no justification, no explanation. It's just
00:01:17.460
fascism. It's fascism in the UK. Why is it? Don't know. It just is. I don't know. Maybe he's going
00:01:25.480
to give us some sort of explanation. I'm not sure we'll find out.
00:01:29.880
What he's really talking about? He's talking about literally creating a politics of hate,
00:01:36.380
which would undermine the well-being of every single person in this country, wherever they came from.
00:01:41.920
Ah, okay. So he's going to create the politics of hate. Right. And he's going to make everybody
00:01:53.040
unsafe. Okay. Well, what if you're a young white girl living in an area of lots of Pakistanis?
0.99
00:02:03.040
Are you going to be made less safe by Rupert Lowe? Or are you going to be made more safe?
00:02:07.260
And if we had to pick the safe, I mean, let's just accept his framing that it is, you know,
00:02:14.280
we're trying to improve safety. Okay, fine. Well, whose safety do we want to maximise?
00:02:21.240
Is it preteen girls, the ones in care, the ones from vulnerable situations? Do we want to maximise
00:02:29.440
their safety or the safety of Pakistani men? Yes. Okay. Thank you, Richard.
0.74
00:02:37.260
From, this is about the state we choose to live in. Do we want to care or do we want to hate?
00:02:45.360
This is the question of our time. Well, it's a question, Richard, of who do we care for?
00:02:52.900
Because different cultures have incompatible sets of goals. The goals of 12-year-old girls are to grow
1.00
00:03:01.520
up safely and become an adult in good health without getting gang raped 100 times. The goals
00:03:08.520
of Pakistani men in many of these communities, in many instances, is going to be extract as much as
0.99
00:03:15.500
possible through the welfare system while raping young girls. And these two goal sets, they're not
0.98
00:03:23.940
compatible. You have to choose one or the other. And, you know, call me mad, but I prefer to protect
00:03:32.120
vulnerable young people of this nation. I'm less concerned about maximising the utility of welfare
1.00
00:03:42.400
cheating rapists. But that's just me. And that's why this matters to me, because we have to make the
00:03:50.580
right choice. Let's just look at the background of this. Rupert Lowe was elected as a Reform MP in
00:03:57.040
2024. He was elected for Great Yarmouth, and it wasn't very long before Nigel Farage threw him out
00:04:05.360
of his party. Well, I mean, that's just what Nigel Farage does, isn't it? I mean, he's an ego. He's a
00:04:11.660
fragile egomaniac who cannot tolerate anyone else being even slightly more popular than him. I think
00:04:18.280
Nigel Farage would genuinely have his dog put down if internal polling started to show that his dog
00:04:23.440
was getting more popular with the four members than he was, and Rupert Lowe was popular. Now,
00:04:29.380
there's nothing unusual about Nigel Farage throwing anybody out of his party. That's what he does.
00:04:34.520
But the fact... Snap! I told you I love this guy. We think alike in so many ways. Well,
00:04:41.740
occasionally we think alike. But I like this chap.
00:04:44.920
It is that Rupert Lowe is continuing to sit in the House of Commons, and he has created a new
00:04:49.760
political party. It's called Restore Britain, and it has now issued a paper this month called
00:04:56.000
Mass Deportations, Legitimacy, Legality and Logistics.
00:05:04.460
He's published a paper talking about how we can remove millions of people who are antithetical to
00:05:14.560
our way of life, shouldn't be in the first place, are not contributing anything, and are a danger to
00:05:20.920
vulnerable people in this country. What a marvellous thing that is. Let's see if Richard, I suspect not,
