The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters

00:00:00.000 Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters for the 29th of January 2025.

00:00:04.240 Do excuse Josh, I said he looked like the man who ran the Prancing Pony in Fellowship of the Ring

00:00:08.680 and now he's determined to disprove me.

00:00:11.260 I'm sorry, but you do.

00:00:13.320 If you photoshopped Harry's old sideburns onto you, you would look like it.

00:00:16.140 Someone do that down in the comments. 1.00

00:00:17.380 Anyway, I'm your host Connor, I'm joined by Harry and Josh, one of our favourite lineups.

00:00:21.780 And we're going to bring you only the good news today,

00:00:23.300 which is the leaked Raikou report that shows that a Muslim network basically run the British government,

00:00:28.580 who Trump has fired, and how Zoomers, like me, don't like democracy because, and I quote,

00:00:33.080 it's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere.

00:00:35.500 If you like prequel content, stay tuned for a future lads hour.

00:00:38.700 Anyway, because it's a Wednesday and at three o'clock I'll be doing my show,

00:00:43.240 again I'll be checking you through the cheery topics,

00:00:45.400 we're going to go through the Southport murders in its entirety

00:00:48.320 because there's some information that hasn't been compiled and people aren't asking the right questions.

00:00:52.120 Like, for example, why are Axel Rudi-Cabana's parents even in the country?

00:00:55.620 I've asked that question.

00:00:56.740 There's not really a good answer.

00:00:58.600 I've pointed out that the story that's been given to us seems to be contradictory and make no sense.

00:01:03.900 Like his family being apparently highly connected to the current Rwandan government

00:01:08.420 and the high-up officials in there.

00:01:11.020 So why is it they came here as asylum seekers in 2002? 0.95

00:01:15.180 From Uganda.

00:01:15.900 From Uganda.

00:01:17.480 Eight years after the genocide.

00:01:18.880 Yeah, really weird.

00:01:19.600 Safe country as well.

00:01:20.240 Strange that.

00:01:21.280 Anyway, we'll be going over a lot of that,

00:01:22.700 so if you are subscribed to LotusEaters.com, you can watch that live.

00:01:25.860 If you aren't yet, what are you doing?

00:01:27.320 We need your support.

00:01:28.180 Keep the lights on.

00:01:28.960 Let us £5 a month.

00:01:30.340 Appreciate it.

00:01:31.120 But also, I can't get onto the website,

00:01:33.960 so if you're experiencing problems...

00:01:35.920 Oh, I've just got on as I've said it.

00:01:37.420 Never mind.

00:01:38.100 I just need to say it live on air and it shames the website into compliance.

00:01:41.360 Performance issues in your old age, it happens.

00:01:42.940 Anyway...

00:01:43.520 I am 30 this year.

00:01:45.460 Fantastic.

00:01:46.060 Right, let's get into today's news then.

00:01:47.800 So there's been a leaked report from RICU,

00:01:51.280 the Home Office's Research Information and Communications Unit,

00:01:54.580 otherwise known as the Government's Propaganda Department,

00:01:56.920 that I've spoken about for a long time,

00:01:58.640 which has said that claims of two-tier policing

00:02:00.660 are a far-right conspiracy theory

00:02:03.180 and that grooming gangs are just a grievance narrative

00:02:05.680 that folks like us have invented.

00:02:07.960 Now, this should be old news,

00:02:08.960 because actually I've been reporting on this particular report

00:02:11.500 for quite some time.

00:02:13.560 This was Stephen Edgington's first leaks.

00:02:16.040 This was back in November, on the 15th of November,

00:02:19.380 and I then amplified it for my reporting,

00:02:21.240 both on this channel and on Courage Media.

00:02:23.120 Some of the other things that were included in this report

00:02:24.880 were calling anti-communist views far-right.

00:02:27.980 So that should tell you exactly who's running Britain's deep state,

00:02:30.780 and believe me, we have one and it's worse than America's.

00:02:33.320 Quote,

00:02:33.560 Discussing extreme right-wing views,

00:02:34.960 the Home Office cited cultural nationalism as an example,

00:02:37.600 defining the term as

00:02:38.560 the main belief being that Western culture

00:02:41.060 is under threat from mass migration.

00:02:42.920 The paper warned that right-wing extremist narratives,

00:02:44.720 particularly around immigration and policing,

00:02:46.280 are in some cases leaking into mainstream debates,

00:02:48.880 and they cited two-tier policing as that example.

00:02:52.220 Now, it's funny that that's apparently

00:02:53.500 a far-right conspiracy theory,

00:02:55.100 because how many times on this channel

00:02:56.660 have we gone over the fact that the Met Police

00:02:58.260 have expressly said,

00:02:59.420 be it the Macpherson Report

00:03:00.500 or their recent commitments to DEI

00:03:02.180 in the wake of George Floyd,

00:03:03.340 that we're going to police communities much lighter.

00:03:06.620 So, it's both a conspiracy theory

00:03:08.980 and its explicit government policy.

00:03:11.460 Well, they're also talking about it like it's some form of contagion,

00:03:14.600 as if, you know, there's this radioactive thing

00:03:17.580 and it's slowly seeping into the ordinary population.

00:03:20.400 Isn't it terrible?

00:03:21.620 Yeah.

00:03:22.120 It's almost like people pointing out the problem

00:03:24.000 and not the problem,

00:03:24.880 but the problem is, in fact, the problem.

00:03:26.740 But, nope, you've got to be censored

00:03:27.760 and called far-right for talking about it.

00:03:30.440 And, of course, Edgington points out here

00:03:32.040 that the memo was authored by Raikou,

00:03:34.180 based in the Home Office.

00:03:35.020 And Raikou, for those who don't know,

00:03:36.460 are the parent body of Prevent.

00:03:37.960 So, this should give you some insight

00:03:39.320 into why Prevent has been all but refusing

00:03:42.320 to monitor Islamist extremism.

00:03:44.780 And it might have something to do with the staff of Prevent,

00:03:47.000 which we'll get into shortly.

00:03:48.580 Now, Stephen Edgington got Labour to denounce this at the time.

00:03:52.180 So, they've since come out and denounced the leak again

00:03:54.620 of the original leak.

00:03:56.120 But, at the time, they ran screaming from this

00:03:57.920 because they realised,

00:03:58.760 even before the grooming gang's discourse went global

00:04:00.660 because Elon Musk noticed it on X,

00:04:02.620 that this was a terrible thing to say, you know,

00:04:04.860 the thousands of girls raped by imported Pakistani Muslims 0.90

00:04:07.480 criminals is just a grievance narrative

00:04:09.920 that we've made up.

00:04:11.160 But, as we always know,

00:04:13.060 this is just a de jure denouncement.

00:04:16.060 De facto.

00:04:16.660 They still believe it.

00:04:17.600 So, they're still going to do this exact same thing.

00:04:19.280 Because Yvette Cooper is pictured there.

00:04:20.860 She's the Home Secretary for those outside of the UK,

00:04:23.940 in the US.

00:04:24.940 She commissioned this report in the first place

00:04:26.480 in the wake of the Southport protests and riots

00:04:28.460 to say, how can we record more non-crime hate incidents?

00:04:31.400 So, these are the guidelines

00:04:32.740 by which she's instructed her own civil servants 0.67

00:04:34.760 to encourage the increased policing of thought crime

00:04:38.200 because some absolute nutcase 0.84

00:04:39.800 that the Home Office failed to stop

00:04:40.900 went and murdered three girls

00:04:42.360 and stabbed about eight others.

00:04:44.760 Great.

00:04:45.200 Love living in this country.

00:04:46.480 I've been covering this story quite a lot, actually,

00:04:48.080 over on lotusseaters.com,

00:04:49.100 behind the paywall.

00:04:49.780 So, this is that episode on Raikou.

00:04:51.240 So, if you want to know the background to that,

00:04:52.600 you can watch how the government gaslights you.

00:04:54.160 This is the one on the history of non-crime hate incidents,

00:04:56.900 and this is the one particularly

00:04:58.320 on the Islamic network of Muslim activists

00:05:00.560 in the Home Office,

00:05:01.300 and we'll be returning to those shortly.

00:05:02.840 That woman there is a woman called Dame Sara Khan.

00:05:05.040 She was the government's former

00:05:06.000 independent anti-extremism advisor.

00:05:08.500 So independent that her sister

00:05:10.000 was also running Raikou at the time.

00:05:11.880 And they were the ones bankrolling hope-not-hate

00:05:13.580 while they were inventing the Islamophobia definition,

00:05:16.260 which said that the grooming gangs,

00:05:18.140 discourse around the grooming gangs,

00:05:19.220 should be banned

00:05:19.920 because it's an anti-Muslim conspiracy theory.

00:05:22.440 Very interesting to appoint someone

00:05:25.180 who presumably with the surname Khan

00:05:26.960 has a Pakistani background

00:05:28.220 as someone able to define what extremism is,

00:05:33.180 because surely people know

00:05:34.760 that Pakistan's actually a hotbed 1.00

00:05:36.440 of Islamic extremism, right? 0.69

00:05:38.820 One would think.

00:05:39.860 So, the person who appointed her

00:05:41.340 was Michael Gove.

00:05:42.800 Of course.

00:05:43.480 So, having spoken to people

00:05:44.780 trying to be familiar with Gove's thinking at the time,

00:05:47.180 I think Gove thought that he was

00:05:48.540 the perfect puppet master

00:05:49.740 to sit between two communities

00:05:51.660 of marginalising Islamic extremism

00:05:53.960 while giving certain Muslims 0.93

00:05:55.800 who he thought could be seen as mainstream

00:05:57.560 greater positions of prominence

00:05:59.400 to try and contain the Islamist element.

00:06:01.160 What ended up happening is

00:06:02.100 they just packed the Home Office

00:06:03.860 full of Muslim staff members

00:06:05.040 who then corresponded with Islamist groups

00:06:07.020 and gave them a larger quarter

00:06:08.400 than if you'd just never spoken to them

00:06:09.720 in the first place.

00:06:10.720 Of course.

00:06:11.300 And if you had any common sense

00:06:12.760 or any observations

00:06:13.740 of how these sorts of things work,

00:06:15.200 you could have predicted that quite easily.

00:06:16.580 Yes, but, you know,

00:06:18.300 other people other than us

00:06:19.680 have larger in-group

00:06:20.700 ethnic and religious preference

00:06:21.800 and it seems that all of the

00:06:24.000 Western white liberal-leaning elites

00:06:25.700 have ignored that

00:06:26.600 and just sleptwalked us into dystopia.

00:06:29.360 So, I'm going to go through the details

00:06:30.700 of this policy exchange report

00:06:31.900 because it bears reading

00:06:33.520 in the PDF that Samson

00:06:34.880 has so gladly brought up.

00:06:36.380 So, this was the government's

00:06:37.360 rapid analytical sprint

00:06:38.860 to determine its policy

00:06:40.660 based on extremism.

00:06:42.580 It was leaked to policy exchange.

00:06:43.740 So, just right off the bat,

00:06:46.240 rapid analytical sprint,

00:06:48.020 that is such a juxtaposition of terms.

00:06:51.220 You can't be analytical

00:06:52.460 in a rapid or quick way.

00:06:55.320 You can if you've got

00:06:56.120 an ideological cookie cutter

00:06:57.260 that you're just impressing

00:06:58.400 on the world.

00:06:59.280 Like, you can quickly

00:06:59.780 stamp it out like that.

00:07:01.500 That's an immediate red flag

00:07:02.840 right off the bat.

00:07:03.540 Oh, there's many more.

00:07:04.820 Again, it was commissioned

00:07:05.500 by Home Secretary Yvette Cooper

00:07:06.840 who should be made to resign immediately

00:07:08.260 but she should have gone 0.58

00:07:08.880 ages ago anyway.

00:07:10.160 The longest of the documents

00:07:11.040 seen by policy exchanges

00:07:12.000 titled

00:07:12.340 Counter-Extremism Sprint

00:07:13.580 Understand.

00:07:16.000 Not really an honest inquiry

00:07:17.760 as we'll come to see

00:07:18.900 but there you go.

00:07:19.800 And this was offered by

00:07:20.840 Prevent

00:07:21.380 and Raikou

00:07:22.520 and the Homeland Security

00:07:23.660 Analysis and Insight team

00:07:25.000 which is the HSAI.

00:07:26.840 So, they've got some definitions

00:07:27.560 of extremism here.

00:07:28.920 Understand lists

00:07:29.840 nine types of extremism

00:07:31.220 in the following order.

00:07:32.480 Islamist,

00:07:33.400 extreme right-wing,

00:07:34.600 extreme misogyny,

00:07:36.200 pro-Kalistan extremism,

00:07:38.200 Hindu nationalism,

00:07:39.920 extremism,

00:07:41.300 so the Hindutva,

00:07:41.880 environmental extremism,

00:07:43.580 left-wing,

00:07:44.240 anarchist,

00:07:44.800 and single-issue extremism,

00:07:46.380 violence fascination,

00:07:47.720 and conspiracy theories.

00:07:49.000 Now, those aren't necessarily

00:07:50.060 in like descending order

00:07:51.140 or anything.

00:07:51.880 That's quite a mismatch

00:07:52.880 as well, isn't it?

00:07:53.700 Yeah, it's almost like

00:07:54.520 they're trying to cover

00:07:55.320 a whole broad spectrum

00:07:56.660 of things at once

00:07:57.540 and they're not doing

00:07:58.820 any of them very well.

00:08:00.200 In the section

00:08:00.740 on the extreme right-wing,

00:08:02.260 Sprint enters difficult waters

00:08:03.600 in declaring that

00:08:04.280 claims of two-tier policing

00:08:05.360 where groups are allegedly

00:08:06.160 treated differently

00:08:07.020 after similar behaviour

00:08:08.060 are an example

00:08:09.000 of a right-wing extremist

00:08:10.300 narrative leaking

00:08:10.980 into mainstream debates.

00:08:12.620 So, for example,

00:08:13.440 if you notice that

00:08:14.100 the police apply

00:08:15.120 different standards

00:08:15.660 to Palestine protests

00:08:16.780 or if you just cite things

00:08:18.560 like the Alexis J report

00:08:19.840 which say that the police

00:08:20.900 were too afraid

00:08:21.540 of accusations of racism

00:08:22.500 to step in

00:08:23.120 and actually police

00:08:23.780 the Pakistani rape gangs,

00:08:25.740 despite citing

00:08:26.240 government documents

00:08:27.080 in the UK,

00:08:28.100 you are being

00:08:28.840 surveilled

00:08:30.560 by the government

00:08:31.280 as a right-wing extremist.

00:08:32.480 So if you're citing

00:08:33.080 their own documents

00:08:33.700 back to them,

00:08:34.440 you're on a watch list,

00:08:35.640 which we probably are.

00:08:37.020 Oh, almost certainly.

00:08:37.940 Yeah, quite interesting

00:08:38.520 that, isn't it?

00:08:39.800 Sprint also categorises

00:08:40.800 the far right as,

00:08:41.760 quote,

00:08:41.880 hijacking extant 0.73

00:08:43.120 local grievances

00:08:43.960 about perceived inequalities

00:08:45.280 around access to resources,

00:08:46.980 e.g. benefits,

00:08:47.760 migrant hotels, etc.

00:08:48.640 Oh, yes.

00:08:49.420 Just perceived inequalities

00:08:50.300 when in certain regions

00:08:51.720 of London

00:08:52.060 about 76% of social housing

00:08:54.720 is going to

00:08:55.240 first-generation migrants.

00:08:56.440 Overall in London

00:08:57.060 it's about 50%.

00:08:57.700 Just perceived inequalities.

00:08:59.660 We're just pulling it

00:09:00.840 out of our backside

00:09:01.460 with all of the demographic

00:09:02.540 maps and stats.

00:09:03.140 For a specific community,

00:09:04.680 isn't it 71%

00:09:05.640 for Somalis in London?

00:09:06.960 We're 72.

00:09:07.900 72.

00:09:08.580 I might be off by it.

00:09:10.400 It could be going up.

00:09:11.280 It could be 73 by now.

00:09:12.420 We actually don't know.

00:09:13.420 Yeah.

00:09:14.100 I mean, Rupert Lowe's

00:09:14.860 been procuring a lot

00:09:15.700 of this data

00:09:16.100 and he's found that,

00:09:17.240 for example,

00:09:17.620 40% of immigrants 0.71

00:09:18.760 that came in in 2022

00:09:19.580 to 2023

00:09:20.380 are already on benefits.

00:09:22.340 Wonderful.

00:09:23.640 So, per capita, guys.

00:09:25.240 Not perceived,

00:09:26.080 but there you go.

00:09:27.600 As well,

00:09:28.460 fascinating.

00:09:28.980 When you say about

00:09:29.360 the grooming gangs

00:09:29.920 and, you know,

00:09:30.540 Pakistanis being in charge 1.00

00:09:31.760 of the Home Office

00:09:33.460 anti-extremism unit,

00:09:35.200 they might not want

00:09:36.720 to address that issue.

00:09:38.200 Quote,

00:09:38.520 there's little reference

00:09:39.380 to the grooming gangs

00:09:40.100 in here.

00:09:41.140 It's hard to see

00:09:41.640 how progress can be made

00:09:42.540 on reducing violence

00:09:43.620 against women,

00:09:44.180 for example,

00:09:44.840 and ensuring public confidence

00:09:46.320 unless countering grooming gangs

00:09:47.820 and difficult questions

00:09:48.680 that involves

00:09:49.220 are part of the programme.

00:09:50.120 The main mention

00:09:50.880 of the subject

00:09:51.320 in the leaked documents

00:09:51.980 is that, quote,

00:09:52.620 right-wing extremists

00:09:53.460 frequently exploit cases

00:09:54.640 of alleged,

00:09:55.720 alleged,

00:09:57.180 group-based sexual abuse

00:09:58.540 to promote

00:09:59.120 anti-Muslim sentiment

00:10:00.180 as well as anti-government

00:10:01.500 and anti-political

00:10:02.260 correctness narratives.

00:10:03.800 So they don't believe

00:10:04.760 it's even happening.

00:10:05.860 Despite the prosecutions,

00:10:07.220 despite all the witness testimonies,

00:10:09.140 despite the copiousness of evidence,

00:10:10.340 despite the fact that

00:10:11.220 Home Secretary

00:10:11.940 Swell-Abreverman

00:10:13.640 set up a joint task force

00:10:15.400 of 43 police forces

00:10:16.860 in England and Wales

00:10:17.440 and in the first year

00:10:18.680 arrested 550 people

00:10:20.120 and identified 4,000 victims,

00:10:22.800 their official policy

00:10:23.780 is it's not even happening.

00:10:25.360 It's very insulting

00:10:26.220 that they use the word

00:10:27.020 exploit to the people

00:10:28.680 who are victimised by this,

00:10:30.860 the people who have to live 1.00

00:10:31.700 in those communities as well

00:10:32.900 and know people.

00:10:34.260 Could you imagine

00:10:34.820 reading that

00:10:35.680 and saying that

00:10:36.300 people are exploiting it,

00:10:37.800 it's just a grievance,

00:10:39.100 there's not a legitimate concern.

00:10:41.200 I'd like to see

00:10:41.760 the people who wrote this

00:10:42.760 actually say that

00:10:43.480 to one of the victims

00:10:44.520 of the grooming gangs

00:10:45.580 face-to-face.

00:10:46.520 What's fascinating is

00:10:47.280 so Telford MP

00:10:48.340 Lucy,

00:10:50.200 I forgot my last name,

00:10:51.120 I do apologise,

00:10:51.800 she told The Telegraph

00:10:52.660 when she started speaking out

00:10:53.840 about the rape gangs

00:10:54.940 in her local area

00:10:55.840 because Telford's

00:10:56.300 one of the most notorious ones,

00:10:57.460 Baroness Saeed Avorsi

00:10:59.040 summoned her

00:10:59.940 and said,

00:11:00.820 explain yourself.

00:11:01.680 Now,

00:11:01.980 it's interesting to note

00:11:02.560 that Baroness Saeed Avorsi

00:11:03.640 when she was chairwoman

00:11:04.400 of the Conservative Party

00:11:05.140 in 2011,

00:11:06.500 her deputy,

00:11:07.760 her chief of staff,

00:11:09.000 Richard Chalk,

00:11:10.260 became the head of RICU

00:11:11.520 after he'd come back

00:11:12.760 from running PSYOPs

00:11:13.520 in Iraq for Bill Pottinger.

00:11:15.200 So he decided to,

00:11:15.840 rather than run PSYOPs

00:11:16.900 on behalf of the Iraq War,

00:11:18.380 come back and run PSYOPs

00:11:19.420 on the population.

00:11:20.040 Sorry Harry,

00:11:20.440 you look completely

00:11:21.360 just zoned out.

00:11:22.740 I mean,

00:11:24.720 I've not really got much

00:11:25.580 to say on all of this,

00:11:26.600 it's typical,

00:11:27.520 isn't it?

00:11:28.260 Understandable.

00:11:28.900 So,

00:11:29.340 here's the most revealing

00:11:30.960 part of this.

00:11:32.360 Why do you think

00:11:32.980 that they've said

00:11:33.620 that these are all

00:11:34.140 grievance narratives?

00:11:36.780 Because they're attacking

00:11:37.960 the government

00:11:38.640 and diversity

00:11:39.620 and these are things

00:11:41.040 that should not be questioned

00:11:42.380 and therefore are problems.

00:11:44.280 You basically bang on.

00:11:45.400 They said it's,

00:11:46.180 quote,

00:11:46.400 preventing integration.

00:11:48.100 So pointing out

00:11:49.160 the downsides

00:11:50.100 of immigration,

00:11:51.080 diversity,

00:11:51.520 you know,

00:11:52.060 like all the rapes,

00:11:53.800 that's what's stopping integration.

00:11:55.260 So you noticing the problem,

00:11:56.360 again,

00:11:57.080 is what's stopping integration.

00:11:58.220 If the far-right racists

00:11:59.280 wouldn't complain about

00:12:00.280 all the children being raped,

00:12:01.980 we'd all be singing

00:12:02.600 John Lennon's Imagine,

00:12:03.780 I suppose.

00:12:04.500 The behaviours and activity

00:12:05.440 of concern,

00:12:06.380 and this is the quote,

00:12:07.300 and damaging extremist beliefs

00:12:08.540 listed in the various documents

00:12:09.760 include a vast constellation

00:12:10.960 of attitudes and acts,

00:12:11.880 among them conspiracy theories,

00:12:12.880 misogyny,

00:12:13.280 violence against women and girls,

00:12:14.520 having a fixture on gore and violence

00:12:15.920 without adherence to an extremist ideology,

00:12:17.780 preventing integration,

00:12:19.280 influencing racism

00:12:20.120 and intolerance,

00:12:20.760 or involvement

00:12:21.700 in an online subculture

00:12:22.660 called the manosphere.

00:12:23.880 And then they decide to list

00:12:24.740 all things like incels,

00:12:25.780 pick-up artists,

00:12:26.780 because for some reason,

00:12:28.200 Labour politicians

00:12:28.800 like Jess Phillips

00:12:29.680 and Yvette Cooper

00:12:30.480 have a myopic obsession

00:12:31.740 of Andrew Tate clips

00:12:32.780 coming up on their Twitter.

00:12:34.140 I mean,

00:12:34.500 Keir Starmer did say last week

00:12:35.800 that these are the government's

00:12:36.760 new prime targets

00:12:37.820 for terror.

00:12:38.860 Yeah,

00:12:39.280 it's funny.

00:12:40.280 Sarah,

00:12:40.820 Sarah Khan in December.

00:12:42.760 No, no,

00:12:43.060 incels.

00:12:43.840 Okay.

00:12:44.800 Yeah,

00:12:44.980 if you can't get a girlfriend,

00:12:46.540 you're a terrorist. 0.85

00:12:47.120 Well,

00:12:47.300 that was Ruda Cabana's

00:12:48.440 biggest problem,

00:12:49.140 wasn't it?

00:12:49.560 That he was an incel.

00:12:50.980 Yes,

00:12:51.420 definitely.

00:12:52.240 Based on his search history,

00:12:54.140 literature,

00:12:55.260 all of that,

00:12:56.900 definitely,

00:12:57.300 that's the main takeaway.

00:12:58.320 It was either that he was an incel

00:12:59.800 or that he may have

00:13:01.220 speculatively smoked weed once.

00:13:03.780 I have confirmation

00:13:04.300 that he didn't.

00:13:05.680 What a surprise.

00:13:06.800 Yeah,

00:13:07.160 literally,

00:13:07.660 he was never under

00:13:08.100 the influence of drugs.

00:13:09.540 There's,

00:13:09.900 I mean,

00:13:10.200 as far as we know,

00:13:11.020 coming from his internet history,

00:13:12.400 he wasn't visiting,

00:13:14.320 like,

00:13:14.900 r slash or

00:13:15.740 slash poll

00:13:17.160 or anything like that.

00:13:18.240 So,

00:13:18.440 the government wants you to think

00:13:19.380 it's got to be anything

00:13:20.420 except mass migration,

00:13:22.380 religious extremism,

00:13:23.460 or just anti-white hatred,

00:13:25.000 right?

00:13:25.380 Yeah.

00:13:26.240 It's funny that,

00:13:27.080 the conspicuous absence

00:13:28.340 of something.

00:13:28.920 Are you noticing

00:13:29.860 that something's not really

00:13:30.720 getting mentioned here?

00:13:32.120 Yes.

00:13:32.860 So,

00:13:33.920 you know,

00:13:34.400 the case studies they include

00:13:35.720 in the Understand paper

00:13:36.700 include one

00:13:37.620 of about 430 words

00:13:39.480 on leafleting

00:13:41.160 and stickering campaigns

00:13:42.280 by two far-right groups,

00:13:43.520 so presumably that's like

00:13:44.340 Sam Melia

00:13:44.960 or something like that,

00:13:46.240 right?

00:13:46.540 And another of about 320 words

00:13:48.160 on the hundreds of

00:13:48.980 Punish a Muslim Day posts, 0.97

00:13:51.160 which,

00:13:51.580 tell Mama, 0.81

00:13:52.260 you know,

00:13:52.680 personal,

00:13:53.240 constant chronic liars,

00:13:55.300 because they said that

00:13:55.900 Boris Johnson's letterbox column

00:13:57.600 caused anti-Muslim hate

00:13:58.780 events when what they meant

00:13:59.720 is a phone line

00:14:00.860 had an increased report

00:14:02.220 of Muslims saying

00:14:03.140 they were offended.

00:14:04.400 Great,

00:14:04.800 thanks.

00:14:05.440 Tell Mama reported

00:14:06.100 that Punish a Muslim Day 1.00

00:14:06.900 had resulted in

00:14:07.540 one single incident

00:14:08.760 of school bullying.

00:14:09.580 So this is top priority

00:14:10.760 for Prevent,

00:14:11.360 right?

00:14:11.980 The only Islamist case study 1.00

00:14:13.400 in here,

00:14:13.720 the only one,

00:14:14.840 is Anjan Chowdhury's

00:14:15.920 Al Madroon.

00:14:16.960 Anjan Chowdhury's

00:14:17.660 currently in prison,

00:14:18.640 so no mention of

00:14:19.300 the 2017 London Bridge

00:14:20.840 or Westminster Bridge

00:14:21.680 attacks,

00:14:22.060 no mention of the

00:14:22.760 Manchester Arena bombing,

00:14:23.960 barely any mention of

00:14:24.640 the grooming gangs

00:14:25.120 other ones to say

00:14:25.740 it's a far-right

00:14:26.760 conspiracy theory,

00:14:28.580 wonder why they don't

00:14:29.800 want to talk about

00:14:30.400 Islamist extremism

00:14:31.460 at all.

00:14:33.600 Very weird.

00:14:34.360 No mention of the

00:14:34.740 Batley Grammar School

00:14:35.400 teacher who's still in

00:14:36.440 hiding,

00:14:36.760 which,

00:14:37.020 by the way,

00:14:37.660 Batley Grammar School

00:14:38.200 teacher in hiding

00:14:39.160 has received less support

00:14:40.600 than Axel Rudokabana's

00:14:42.100 parents have from the

00:14:42.800 state.

00:14:44.380 That's infuriating,

00:14:45.560 isn't it?

00:14:45.960 Yep,

00:14:46.420 yep,

00:14:46.880 just traitors run

00:14:48.240 the government,

00:14:48.940 conspicuous absence of

00:14:50.220 focus on Muslim terrorism,

00:14:51.160 basically,

00:14:51.580 is what I'm getting at,

00:14:52.140 despite,

00:14:52.580 as the authors of

00:14:53.360 this paper,

00:14:54.120 Andrew Gilligan and

00:14:55.100 Dr Paul Stott remind us,

00:14:56.580 in the UK,

00:14:57.360 Islamists are responsible 1.00

00:14:58.100 for 94% of all terror

00:14:59.600 deaths and 88% of terror

00:15:01.220 injuries since 1999.

00:15:02.760 Allow me to also add

00:15:04.340 a more updated version

00:15:05.300 because I did my own

00:15:06.240 calculation of this,

00:15:07.640 and since 2005,

00:15:09.160 when the IRA bombings

00:15:10.580 stopped,

00:15:11.460 you know,

00:15:11.680 when things returned

00:15:13.260 to somewhat normal

00:15:14.200 relations with Ireland,

00:15:16.560 it is,

00:15:17.340 I think,

00:15:17.700 96.97% of all

00:15:20.340 terror-related fatalities

00:15:21.640 have an Islamist 0.89

00:15:23.240 perpetrator.

00:15:24.940 There you go,

00:15:25.480 and 80% of the

00:15:26.680 open case files

00:15:27.400 for counter-terror

00:15:27.940 police,

00:15:28.780 and,

00:15:29.260 what was it,

00:15:30.020 75% of open case

00:15:31.640 files for MI5,

00:15:32.560 and 63% of terrorists

00:15:34.020 currently in custody

00:15:34.720 are Muslim.

00:15:36.280 So that's an

00:15:36.740 inconvenient fact,

00:15:37.680 and yet,

00:15:38.080 Prevent,

00:15:39.540 Raikou,

00:15:40.420 just not bothered.

00:15:42.280 Actually,

00:15:42.700 Understand devotes

00:15:43.600 the exact same

00:15:44.480 amount of page space,

00:15:45.760 one page,

00:15:46.840 to Islamist extremism,

00:15:47.960 as to conspiracy theories,

00:15:49.560 pro-Kalistan extremism,

00:15:51.420 Sikh extremism, 0.55

00:15:53.020 extreme misogyny,

00:15:54.360 and environmental extremism,

00:15:55.820 which,

00:15:56.480 as far as we know,

00:15:57.120 have caused absolutely

00:15:58.080 no deaths.

00:15:59.000 So,

00:15:59.780 yeah,

00:16:00.240 there you go.

00:16:01.020 Now,

00:16:01.160 I've been reporting on this

00:16:01.820 for quite a while,

00:16:02.500 because this has tangible

00:16:03.900 consequences.

00:16:05.380 So,

00:16:05.800 how many of you guys

00:16:06.500 have heard of the

00:16:06.900 Shawcross report?

00:16:07.720 It was a review of Prevent.

00:16:08.640 I've heard of it,

00:16:09.140 yes.

00:16:09.740 So,

00:16:09.940 so,

00:16:10.200 Shawcross,

00:16:10.760 I put this in a very long

00:16:12.660 study of Raikou,

00:16:13.840 basically,

00:16:14.680 but,

00:16:14.920 Shawcross found that,

00:16:17.200 and this is a quote,

00:16:18.100 Prevent is not doing enough

00:16:19.120 to counter non-violent

00:16:20.180 Islamist extremism,

00:16:22.100 and has applied a double standard

00:16:23.320 when dealing with

00:16:23.840 the extreme right-wing

00:16:24.600 and Islamism.

00:16:25.280 By the way,

00:16:25.860 they define extreme right-wing

00:16:27.200 via a list of texts

00:16:29.040 leaked in 2019

00:16:29.840 that they called

00:16:30.160 Actively Patriotic and Proud,

00:16:31.540 as reading

00:16:32.060 Douglas Murray,

00:16:33.200 Peter Hitchens,

00:16:34.040 Melanie Phillips,

00:16:35.520 J.R.R. Tolkien,

00:16:36.760 Beowulf,

00:16:37.220 and George Orwell's 1984.

00:16:39.160 So,

00:16:39.320 if you read any of those,

00:16:40.120 you're a terrorist,

00:16:40.760 but if you read the Quran

00:16:41.560 and Hadith,

00:16:42.220 no,

00:16:42.520 just fine by them,

00:16:43.340 that's fine.

00:16:44.040 And he said,

00:16:44.420 the present boundaries

00:16:45.360 around what is termed by Prevent

00:16:46.620 as extremist Islamist ideology

00:16:48.260 are drawn too narrowly,

00:16:49.040 while the boundaries around

00:16:49.700 the ideology of the extreme

00:16:50.540 right-wing are far too broad.

00:16:52.000 When discussing Islamism,

00:16:53.140 Prevent's staff frequently

00:16:54.020 came back to issues

00:16:54.760 relating to mental health

00:16:55.720 concerns and vulnerabilities.

00:16:57.260 That, by the way,

00:16:57.720 is a larger share of referrals

00:16:58.820 now,

00:16:59.100 it's just this nebulous

00:16:59.880 mental health thing.

00:17:01.420 Ideology,

00:17:01.920 if acknowledged at all,

00:17:02.640 was treated as a secondary factor,

00:17:04.260 and a derivative of a wider

00:17:05.540 psychological or social issue.

00:17:06.720 Put simply,

00:17:07.380 ideology was not seen

00:17:08.420 as an essential part

00:17:09.340 of the trajectory

00:17:09.900 towards terrorism,

00:17:10.680 instead it was viewed

00:17:11.780 as one of many

00:17:12.940 potential radicalising factors.

00:17:14.900 They do realise

00:17:15.620 how terrorism works,

00:17:17.000 right,

00:17:17.200 and how it actually

00:17:17.800 gets its name,

00:17:18.580 is that you invoke terror

00:17:20.580 on a population

00:17:21.500 because of the

00:17:22.560 sort of unprovoked violence.

00:17:24.900 So,

00:17:25.240 that sort of implies

00:17:26.140 that it's being done

00:17:26.780 for a reason,

00:17:28.200 doesn't it?

00:17:28.800 There's intention

00:17:30.060 built into the term,

00:17:32.520 and so they've

00:17:33.220 completely misunderstood

00:17:34.400 the very definition

00:17:35.660 of the word

00:17:36.220 they're meant to be.

00:17:37.140 Well,

00:17:37.340 it's only their job,

00:17:38.220 Josh.

00:17:38.660 Yeah, I mean...

00:17:39.140 You could say

00:17:39.560 it's a misunderstanding,

00:17:40.480 or you could say

00:17:41.140 it's purposeful obfuscation.

00:17:42.560 I was being a bit charitable.

00:17:43.560 Oh, I understand,

00:17:44.520 and I think it's fine

00:17:45.220 to be charitable

00:17:45.820 until we go on.

00:17:47.900 So,

00:17:48.200 because of this,

00:17:49.160 under the Khan sisters,

00:17:51.380 turns out the prevent referrals

00:17:52.620 dropped for Islamist extremism.

00:17:54.480 Only 22% of prevent referrals

00:17:56.500 in 2020 to 2021

00:17:58.060 were for Islamic extremism,

00:17:59.960 and 25% of them

00:18:01.780 were for the far right,

00:18:02.800 despite far right,

00:18:03.920 far right,

00:18:04.680 making up only 10%

00:18:05.780 of counter-police's

00:18:06.840 open investigations

00:18:07.720 and Islamic extremism,

00:18:08.840 again,

00:18:09.260 being 80%,

00:18:10.160 and, of course...

00:18:11.360 And I would assume

00:18:11.860 within the far right there

00:18:12.860 you are lumping people

00:18:13.740 like Sam Melia

00:18:14.600 putting out stickers.

00:18:15.980 Yes, I mean,

00:18:16.880 do we remember

00:18:17.520 that training video

00:18:18.720 that they sent out

00:18:19.720 a little while ago

00:18:20.400 where it said

00:18:21.120 that a 17-year-old boy

00:18:22.500 is putting up

00:18:22.920 anti-migration stickers

00:18:24.000 in a public park,

00:18:25.020 so call prevent on him?

00:18:27.340 Ridiculous, isn't it?

00:18:28.400 I'm just looking up the...

00:18:29.940 Because in 2021,

00:18:31.600 yeah,

00:18:31.860 the terror threat

00:18:33.080 went up by 90%

00:18:35.080 when they reclassified

00:18:36.960 things to include

00:18:38.880 the far right

00:18:39.700 and right-wing extremism,

00:18:41.140 which meant that

00:18:41.960 the number of pensioners

00:18:42.980 on the list

00:18:43.440 went up 90%,

00:18:44.500 sorry.

00:18:45.180 That was the actual figure.

00:18:46.860 So all of these pensioners 1.00

00:18:47.880 who are probably

00:18:48.300 not even physically capable

00:18:49.620 of carrying out

00:18:50.360 a terror attack

00:18:51.080 were put on this list

00:18:52.160 because they wanted

00:18:53.060 to seem even-handed,

00:18:54.180 and in fact,

00:18:55.580 I believe someone

00:18:56.060 who is a former head

00:18:57.880 of the COBRA

00:18:58.580 emergency meeting group

00:19:00.900 said this is basically

00:19:02.000 just being done

00:19:02.560 for political reasons.

00:19:03.700 The threat is not equivalent

00:19:05.040 to Islamic extremism.

00:19:06.620 And this is someone

00:19:07.280 who is Colonel Richard Kemp,

00:19:09.400 the terror expert.

00:19:10.160 Funny that he got sued

00:19:11.800 by Saeed Avorsi

00:19:12.880 for libel

00:19:13.500 for suggesting

00:19:14.080 that she was liaising

00:19:15.120 with Muslim groups

00:19:16.700 that she herself called,

00:19:17.840 although not illegal,

00:19:19.060 clearly illiberal.

00:19:20.840 So, funny how that

00:19:22.100 interplays, isn't it?

00:19:23.180 Anyway, point being,

00:19:24.000 I actually met a civil servant

00:19:24.940 while I was out in DC

00:19:25.980 who had worked

00:19:26.780 at the Department of Trade

00:19:27.420 and got referred

00:19:27.880 to prevent having a photo

00:19:28.820 of Jacob Rees-Mogg

00:19:29.520 in his office.

00:19:30.740 That is how low

00:19:31.680 the bar is for the far right.

00:19:33.620 You mean the man

00:19:34.440 who was...

00:19:35.280 Doesn't care about

00:19:35.760 demographic change?

00:19:36.440 Yeah.

00:19:37.000 Senior frontbench

00:19:38.480 Conservative MP

00:19:39.300 and GB News panellist.

00:19:41.740 Does owning a top hat

00:19:42.780 put you on the list as well?

00:19:45.460 Fat controller

00:19:46.140 on Suicide Watch.

00:19:48.320 So, we can laugh about this

00:19:50.420 and it's worth us doing so,

00:19:51.580 but remember,

00:19:52.280 this means that

00:19:53.500 Islamists

00:19:54.460 and people of

00:19:56.140 diverse extraction

00:19:57.640 don't quite get monitored

00:19:58.880 by Prevent.

00:19:59.460 And the most tragic examples

00:20:00.560 of this are, of course,

00:20:01.440 Abi Habiali,

00:20:02.380 the son of the Somalian diplomat

00:20:03.900 who in 2021

00:20:04.600 murdered Sir David Amos MP

00:20:06.280 at a constituency surgery

00:20:08.160 over his vote on Libya.

00:20:09.500 He'd actually been stalking

00:20:10.420 Michael Gove the day before

00:20:11.440 as well,

00:20:11.980 so the great irony is

00:20:13.060 that Michael Gove

00:20:13.520 enabled the situation

00:20:14.400 and was nearly killed

00:20:15.320 by the exact kind of person

00:20:16.400 that Prevent

00:20:17.200 let go after one meeting

00:20:18.820 with no follow-up.

00:20:19.440 And then there's

00:20:20.380 Axel Rudakabana

00:20:21.020 who's referred to Prevent

00:20:22.120 three times between

00:20:23.160 2019 and 2021.

00:20:25.300 Despite owning ISIS materials,

00:20:27.160 being obsessed with

00:20:27.900 white genocide, 0.57

00:20:28.820 telling classmates

00:20:29.540 he wanted white genocide,

00:20:30.740 carrying a knife

00:20:31.400 into school ten times,

00:20:32.540 being excluded,

00:20:33.260 then coming back

00:20:33.780 on the school grounds

00:20:34.380 and breaking a

00:20:34.980 classmate's wrist

00:20:35.720 with a hockey stick.

00:20:37.080 Again,

00:20:37.560 absolutely no follow-up

00:20:38.420 to this referral.

00:20:39.500 Is it because of

00:20:40.280 the possession of his materials

00:20:41.300 and the colour of their skin?

00:20:42.860 Prevent just decided

00:20:43.580 to overlook it

00:20:44.560 because they thought

00:20:45.080 it might be racist

00:20:45.700 to look into it.

00:20:46.360 Weird, that.

00:20:48.080 So, I've got some evidence

00:20:49.400 possibly of this happening.

00:20:51.380 So, we'll go back

00:20:52.300 to the Policy Exchange report

00:20:53.400 because these are

00:20:54.080 the recommendations they made.

00:20:55.300 They say that

00:20:55.920 responsibility for

00:20:56.680 counter-extremism

00:20:57.340 moves back to the Home Office

00:20:58.840 because under the Conservatives

00:21:00.200 Michael Gove

00:21:00.800 moved it to his department.

00:21:02.440 There's going to be

00:21:02.960 a creation of a

00:21:03.700 counter-extremism

00:21:04.600 ministerial board

00:21:05.500 featuring Dan Jarvis MP,

00:21:07.240 MBE MP,

00:21:08.300 Jess Phillips,

00:21:08.860 our old friend

00:21:09.440 who absolutely has

00:21:10.180 a very sane definition

00:21:11.360 of things,

00:21:12.400 Vett Cooper,

00:21:13.460 obviously,

00:21:13.980 Prevent Director

00:21:14.540 Michael Stewart

00:21:15.140 who has overseen

00:21:15.900 this decline

00:21:16.460 in Islamist referrals

00:21:17.680 and representatives

00:21:18.460 from GCHQ,

00:21:19.560 MI5,

00:21:20.080 the Joint Terrorism

00:21:20.840 Analysis Centre

00:21:21.560 and the Charity Commission.

00:21:22.980 The Charity Commission

00:21:23.600 on there means

00:21:24.180 you're going to get

00:21:24.520 a bunch of

00:21:25.000 left-wing activist NGOs

00:21:26.120 setting the definition

00:21:26.780 like Hope Not Hate

00:21:28.040 who did the Islamist, 0.56

00:21:29.720 the, sorry,

00:21:30.840 Islamophobia definition

00:21:31.620 in the first place.

00:21:33.400 And they also want

00:21:34.000 to make a new crime

00:21:34.800 of making harmful

00:21:35.640 communications online

00:21:36.700 which was originally

00:21:37.280 rejected as part

00:21:38.060 of the online safety bill

00:21:39.000 and the Conservatives

00:21:39.700 and now they want

00:21:40.040 to bring it back

00:21:40.580 and they want to increase

00:21:41.880 the number of

00:21:42.280 non-crime hate incidents

00:21:43.200 recorded.

00:21:43.600 What do you mean

00:21:44.740 a curious wording

00:21:45.880 they're making

00:21:46.660 online communications

00:21:48.560 as in

00:21:49.640 just you communicating

00:21:51.500 online?

00:21:51.980 Is it just a weird

00:21:52.560 way of saying that

00:21:53.260 or is it that

00:21:53.660 you're creating resources

00:21:55.180 to be communicated

00:21:56.160 like infographics

00:21:57.400 or things like that?

00:21:58.360 Is this an anti-meme

00:21:59.620 legislation?

00:22:00.560 Yes.

00:22:00.940 It kind of sounds like it.

00:22:02.040 Basically,

00:22:02.300 if you share

00:22:02.840 online misinformation

00:22:03.580 that causes real-world harm

00:22:04.740 like people sharing

00:22:06.880 the incorrect identity

00:22:08.540 of the Southport perpetrator

00:22:09.700 as some Syrian migrant,

00:22:10.780 they weren't being able

00:22:12.600 to be prosecuted

00:22:13.280 under the current law

00:22:14.020 they want to make a law

00:22:14.820 so they can be prosecuted.

00:22:15.900 So if you get something

00:22:16.420 wrong on the internet

00:22:17.220 and it offends a minority

00:22:18.240 you can go to prison.

00:22:19.980 That's what they want to do.

00:22:21.360 Yvette Cooper promised

00:22:22.300 to increase the number

00:22:23.040 of non-crime hate incidents

00:22:23.880 being recorded

00:22:24.460 by the way

00:22:25.240 in August 2024.

00:22:26.300 She's going to run 1.00

00:22:26.820 into some problems

00:22:27.520 because an act of parliament

00:22:28.540 changed the law

00:22:29.280 but as I've covered recently

00:22:30.740 even though Suella Braveman

00:22:31.940 tried to make it better

00:22:32.820 what she did

00:22:33.440 was she asked the police

00:22:34.400 to record non-crime hate incidents

00:22:36.000 using common sense

00:22:38.160 and not to record it

00:22:39.600 when it's clearly malicious.

00:22:40.780 Now the problem is

00:22:41.700 under the Equality Act

00:22:42.540 if you've got

00:22:42.840 protected characteristics

00:22:43.720 the police are told

00:22:45.120 not to engage

00:22:45.680 in secondary victimisation

00:22:46.660 by asking you for evidence

00:22:47.660 so it just went up.

00:22:50.240 Turns out

00:22:50.680 after the guidance

00:22:51.720 trying to improve things

00:22:52.540 the number of

00:22:53.360 non-crime hate incidents

00:22:54.160 went up

00:22:54.740 so it didn't quite go so great.

00:22:57.920 After Alison Pearson

00:22:58.820 got a knock on the door

00:22:59.600 from the police

00:23:00.120 for an anti-Hamas tweet

00:23:01.800 it was found

00:23:02.700 that last year

00:23:03.620 13,000

00:23:05.200 non-crime hate incidents

00:23:06.420 were recorded.

00:23:07.400 That was an increase

00:23:08.020 from 11,000

00:23:09.220 from before

00:23:09.880 the guidance

00:23:10.740 so police

00:23:12.100 who haven't solved

00:23:12.660 one burglary

00:23:13.400 in the majority

00:23:14.200 of constituencies

00:23:15.180 in England and Wales

00:23:16.280 are obsessed

00:23:17.000 with policing tweets.

00:23:17.940 I would love to find out

00:23:19.540 just how many

00:23:20.560 the Lotus Eaters have got

00:23:21.500 we could have a little

00:23:22.000 league table go on.

00:23:23.160 You can actually

00:23:23.640 think send off

00:23:24.900 an FRI request

00:23:25.680 and find out

00:23:26.540 I found out

00:23:27.620 that I didn't get one

00:23:28.440 lodged against me

00:23:29.240 after I almost got arrested

00:23:30.240 in 2022

00:23:30.940 outside a Conservative Party

00:23:31.880 conference

00:23:32.180 but I wouldn't be shocked

00:23:33.240 if I've got one since.

00:23:34.740 And these do bar you

00:23:35.520 from public sector employment

00:23:36.460 by the way

00:23:36.900 so people don't know

00:23:37.540 and bear in mind

00:23:38.400 Oh well

00:23:39.240 Josh and I are fine then.

00:23:40.680 Yeah

00:23:40.820 well bear in mind

00:23:41.440 that the UK now has

00:23:42.400 more civil servants

00:23:43.180 per capita than Communist China

00:23:44.340 so the public sector

00:23:45.500 is swelling

00:23:45.860 and so they're just

00:23:46.660 essentially ideologically

00:23:47.760 gauging.

00:23:47.980 Communists are more efficient.

00:23:49.280 Is that true?

00:23:50.080 Yes.

00:23:50.420 The Communist Chinese 0.99

00:23:51.280 have a leaner state.

00:23:52.960 A country that's

00:23:54.640 the size of an empire

00:23:56.340 with a ridiculously

00:23:57.920 large population

00:23:59.140 less civil servants.

00:24:00.760 Yeah.

00:24:01.260 And also we've got

00:24:02.280 more diversity and inclusion

00:24:03.280 This country makes so much sense.

00:24:04.380 We've got more diversity

00:24:04.900 and inclusion commissars

00:24:06.160 than any other country

00:24:06.980 in the world right now

00:24:07.820 especially after Trump

00:24:08.560 has just defunded them all.

00:24:10.020 So we are just

00:24:10.660 as Morgoth has said

00:24:12.060 woke North Korea 0.99

00:24:12.800 and so you can't work

00:24:13.820 for the state

00:24:14.220 if you've got one of these

00:24:15.080 increasing numbers.

00:24:15.580 North Korean states

00:24:16.540 leaner than ours

00:24:17.200 at this rate.

00:24:17.960 Yeah.

00:24:18.380 So well I mean

00:24:19.180 they've not got much food

00:24:20.040 to go around.

00:24:20.820 Speaking of people

00:24:21.520 working hand and glove

00:24:22.100 at the state

00:24:22.360 this also coincides

00:24:23.320 with and Sara Khan

00:24:23.980 We won't either soon.

00:24:25.380 True.

00:24:25.920 Fair point.

00:24:26.560 Sara Khan has also

00:24:27.720 been involved

00:24:28.680 in a BBC undercover

00:24:30.040 investigation of

00:24:30.780 Patriotic Alternative.

00:24:31.680 Now we can think

00:24:32.760 that Patriotic Alternative 0.66

00:24:33.740 are not a particularly

00:24:34.420 credible group

00:24:35.860 to govern

00:24:36.460 and we can think

00:24:37.180 that Mark Collett

00:24:37.780 said some unsavory

00:24:38.600 things in the past

00:24:39.260 and I wouldn't trust him

00:24:39.940 to run a bath

00:24:40.620 than a government department

00:24:41.620 but it's funny that

00:24:42.760 I still don't think

00:24:43.400 they should be

00:24:43.880 under government

00:24:44.460 investigation

00:24:45.340 for being a political

00:24:46.840 party that offends people.

00:24:48.500 During this process

00:24:49.680 the guy who went

00:24:50.540 undercover as part

00:24:51.360 of the BBC

00:24:51.840 was down and out

00:24:53.080 on his luck

00:24:53.440 and so members of PA

00:24:54.420 asked

00:24:54.880 do you want us

00:24:55.700 to find you a job

00:24:56.380 and things like that.

00:24:57.040 Oh they were nice to him?

00:24:58.280 Yes.

00:24:59.840 And he still submitted

00:25:01.200 his investigation

00:25:02.200 smearing them?

00:25:02.780 Well the purpose

00:25:03.860 of this investigation

00:25:04.540 so state media

00:25:05.360 is working with the state

00:25:06.100 here and Dame Sara Khan

00:25:07.040 who's still independent

00:25:08.120 but is obviously

00:25:08.980 working with Hope Not Hate

00:25:09.860 who are Home Office

00:25:10.660 funded to create reports

00:25:12.600 to say here you should

00:25:13.500 ban certain people.

00:25:15.160 Sara Khan is quoted

00:25:16.200 in here funnily enough

00:25:17.280 former counter-extremism

00:25:18.500 commissioner Dame Sara Khan

00:25:19.680 believes the UK government

00:25:20.600 should urgently change

00:25:21.460 the law to make groups

00:25:22.300 like Patriotic Alternative

00:25:23.300 illegal so she wants 1.00

00:25:24.000 to prescribe them

00:25:24.860 as a terror group.

00:25:25.780 So actual referrals

00:25:26.900 for Islamist groups

00:25:27.760 went down under her watch

00:25:29.200 they literally missed terrorists

00:25:30.960 like Abbie Harvey Ali 0.64

00:25:31.840 and Axel Ridicobana

00:25:33.380 but we're going to

00:25:34.660 prescribe Patriotic Alternative

00:25:36.280 as a terror group

00:25:37.420 because basically

00:25:38.920 the demand

00:25:39.860 for far-right terrorists

00:25:41.220 outstrips the supply.

00:25:42.840 Also I will say

00:25:44.040 it's not

00:25:44.380 so you're telling me

00:25:45.780 that Dame Khan 0.97

00:25:46.780 classic British name

00:25:48.140 wants to make a group

00:25:49.940 that specifically

00:25:51.100 stands up for

00:25:52.100 the rights of

00:25:52.900 ethnically British people 1.00

00:25:54.040 illegal.

00:25:55.740 You said exactly

00:25:56.520 what I was going to say.

00:25:57.680 I could never have guessed

00:25:58.960 that such a thing

00:25:59.720 would happen.

00:26:00.220 I'm so glad

00:26:01.040 that we put women 0.99

00:26:01.740 like her in positions

00:26:02.640 of power.

00:26:03.180 And one does not need

00:26:03.980 to support Patriotic Alternative

00:26:05.080 to notice that

00:26:06.020 let's say malicious

00:26:07.220 ethnic and religious

00:26:08.580 preference

00:26:09.000 which only ever cuts

00:26:09.900 one way

00:26:10.260 and I say it only

00:26:11.100 ever cuts one way.

00:26:11.340 I'm sorry

00:26:11.840 Josh you're so right

00:26:13.300 it is always just about

00:26:14.280 resource acquisition

00:26:15.340 isn't it?

00:26:15.920 It is yeah.

00:26:16.440 Yeah and this is access

00:26:17.240 to political resource.

00:26:18.960 I say it only ever cuts

00:26:19.780 one way

00:26:20.080 because under Khan's

00:26:21.040 leadership

00:26:21.360 something called

00:26:22.420 the Home Office

00:26:23.200 Islamic Network

00:26:24.120 which I've been

00:26:24.960 shouting about

00:26:25.620 for a while.

00:26:26.500 That exists at all.

00:26:27.680 It's now got 700 members

00:26:29.540 and guess where

00:26:31.520 they mainly work?

00:26:33.100 Raikou and Prevent?

00:26:34.020 In Bradford I imagine.

00:26:35.120 Well yeah.

00:26:36.040 Hey Birmingham as well

00:26:36.840 come on.

00:26:37.060 That's true.

00:26:37.540 Possibly.

00:26:37.900 So here's some things

00:26:39.180 that happened under

00:26:39.640 Khan's watch.

00:26:40.480 While Khan and her 0.95

00:26:41.680 sister were running 0.70

00:26:42.540 the Home Office

00:26:43.380 and Prevent and Raikou

00:26:44.660 Hope Not Hate

00:26:45.520 received grants

00:26:46.220 of £50,000

00:26:47.160 and £141,380

00:26:49.460 in 2019 and 2020

00:26:51.560 to brief multiple

00:26:52.680 departments on

00:26:53.240 emerging trends in

00:26:53.900 UK hate.

00:26:54.420 At that time

00:26:55.060 they were working

00:26:55.840 with the all-party

00:26:56.680 parliamentary group

00:26:57.620 on Islamophobia

00:26:58.400 which was headed

00:26:58.960 by Wes Streeting

00:26:59.680 is now headed by

00:27:00.640 drumroll

00:27:01.220 Say Divorcee 1.00

00:27:02.120 to invent an

00:27:02.960 Islamophobia definition

00:27:03.960 which said that

00:27:04.740 if you talk about

00:27:05.180 grooming gangs

00:27:05.720 you're making racist

00:27:06.840 remarks against

00:27:07.680 the Muslim community

00:27:09.060 in Britain

00:27:09.640 so they were just

00:27:10.620 being paid by the

00:27:11.480 government to ban

00:27:12.140 any conversation

00:27:12.700 about grooming gangs

00:27:13.520 and then they also

00:27:14.240 received payments

00:27:14.820 of £240,000

00:27:15.700 £275,000

00:27:17.420 and £60,000

00:27:18.700 from the Paul Hamlin

00:27:19.680 Foundation

00:27:20.180 who themselves

00:27:20.860 are funded by

00:27:21.320 the Home Office

00:27:21.720 they're a pro-migration

00:27:22.580 charity

00:27:22.960 and that was part

00:27:24.540 of the foundation's

00:27:26.120 migration fund

00:27:26.880 to create

00:27:27.400 and I quote

00:27:28.020 a UK network

00:27:29.320 of young migrant

00:27:30.000 leaders and a network

00:27:30.780 of leaders and

00:27:31.340 organisations within

00:27:32.120 towns who respond

00:27:33.720 to local needs

00:27:34.580 and pressure points

00:27:35.280 and share learning

00:27:36.020 to enable rapid

00:27:36.760 response to

00:27:37.580 provocative elements

00:27:38.320 Translation

00:27:39.140 they create little

00:27:40.500 protest splinter groups

00:27:41.780 to respond

00:27:42.840 once

00:27:43.720 I don't know

00:27:44.540 another protest

00:27:45.280 kicks off about

00:27:46.120 diversity

00:27:46.860 multiculturalism

00:27:47.740 or Islam 0.63

00:27:48.280 so then

00:27:49.000 these

00:27:49.880 very well-principled

00:27:51.460 anti-racist activists

00:27:52.560 can stand out there

00:27:53.240 with pre-printed placards

00:27:54.280 get a photo

00:27:55.080 and suddenly

00:27:55.680 it appears on

00:27:56.420 a newspaper front page

00:27:57.320 It reminds me of

00:27:58.300 when all of the riots

00:27:59.480 were going on in August

00:28:00.440 and all of the

00:28:02.280 you know

00:28:03.580 anti-immigration people

00:28:05.140 seemed to be

00:28:06.460 organic

00:28:07.180 in that

00:28:07.660 all of their signs

00:28:08.520 if they did have

00:28:09.360 signs which many

00:28:09.920 of them didn't

00:28:10.880 seemed to be

00:28:11.760 homemade

00:28:12.220 handmade

00:28:12.640 and different

00:28:13.380 holding different

00:28:14.380 messages

00:28:14.780 and then

00:28:15.780 the other side

00:28:16.920 all had

00:28:17.980 stand up to

00:28:18.480 racism signs

00:28:19.280 or

00:28:19.620 basically

00:28:20.640 carbon copies

00:28:21.320 of one another

00:28:22.060 the whole thing

00:28:22.880 seemed like it

00:28:23.560 was centrally

00:28:24.000 organised

00:28:24.380 because

00:28:24.720 lots of people

00:28:25.740 at lots of

00:28:26.380 different times

00:28:26.940 all turned up

00:28:27.500 at the same

00:28:28.000 these pre-planned

00:28:29.240 places with the

00:28:29.960 same signs

00:28:30.800 they always have

00:28:31.740 handmaid's tale

00:28:32.520 outfits as well

00:28:33.340 you mean that one

00:28:33.980 yep

00:28:34.280 yeah this one

00:28:35.240 yeah

00:28:35.440 funny that

00:28:36.360 this was classic

00:28:36.940 every single newspaper

00:28:38.060 on the exact same day

00:28:39.920 had the same front page

00:28:41.520 yeah

00:28:41.820 and it's almost like

00:28:42.400 it was government

00:28:42.780 orchestrated

00:28:43.560 well

00:28:43.900 so I put in an

00:28:44.700 FOI request

00:28:45.300 about this actually

00:28:45.840 and they told me

00:28:47.460 we had no input

00:28:48.360 into the headlines

00:28:48.860 I was like

00:28:49.740 that's not what I asked

00:28:50.600 though

00:28:50.840 you sidestepped that one

00:28:52.300 and the reason I asked

00:28:53.260 that is because

00:28:53.740 Dame Sara Khan

00:28:54.560 specifically set this

00:28:55.580 trend of

00:28:56.620 the Raikou unit

00:28:58.100 controlling newspaper

00:28:58.720 front pages

00:28:59.200 because as you can see here

00:29:00.260 here's Dame Sara Khan's

00:29:01.760 charity called Inspire

00:29:02.920 she did the hashtag

00:29:03.680 making a stand campaign

00:29:04.900 Theresa May helped launch it

00:29:06.320 the Home Office

00:29:07.180 and Raikou

00:29:07.860 they called it

00:29:09.300 a Raikou product

00:29:10.800 in internal emails

00:29:11.560 and then

00:29:12.320 when Alan Henning

00:29:13.460 was beheaded by ISIS

00:29:14.440 in 2014

00:29:15.220 guess what showed up

00:29:16.240 on the front page

00:29:16.660 of the Sun

00:29:16.920 funny that isn't it

00:29:18.920 it's literally

00:29:19.800 Sara Khan's image

00:29:20.620 that they made

00:29:21.220 in advance

00:29:21.800 in collaboration

00:29:22.520 with the Home Office

00:29:23.240 also under Sara Khan

00:29:25.080 that Home Office

00:29:25.920 Islamic network

00:29:26.800 grew

00:29:27.320 and

00:29:28.380 and this was reported

00:29:29.520 by GB News

00:29:30.180 a little while ago

00:29:30.940 again by Stephen Edgington

00:29:32.860 so people are just

00:29:33.380 sort of catching on now

00:29:34.120 Patrick Christus

00:29:34.780 decided to report this

00:29:35.900 yesterday

00:29:36.220 but this was reported

00:29:36.860 in November

00:29:37.280 by me and Stephen

00:29:38.400 his quote

00:29:40.120 is absolutely wild

00:29:41.540 Home Office

00:29:42.380 whistleblower told

00:29:43.060 GB News

00:29:43.440 having an Islamic

00:29:44.360 lobby group

00:29:45.140 inside the Home Office

00:29:45.920 represents a serious

00:29:46.780 threat to the government's

00:29:47.680 aims in combating

00:29:48.460 Islamic extremism

00:29:49.380 and granting asylum

00:29:50.540 to those fleeing

00:29:51.200 Islamic countries

00:29:51.920 over religious persecution

00:29:53.020 and the network

00:29:54.320 themselves say

00:29:55.060 that they aim to

00:29:55.800 quote

00:29:56.060 promote the recruitment

00:29:57.300 retention

00:29:57.960 and progression

00:29:58.860 of Muslim staff

00:29:59.640 in the Home Office

00:30:00.180 and influence

00:30:01.100 policy makers

00:30:01.800 so that policy

00:30:02.260 is more inclusive

00:30:02.760 of Muslim needs

00:30:03.400 remember guys

00:30:04.640 don't do identity politics

00:30:06.160 identity politics

00:30:07.420 is bad

00:30:08.480 and it's illiberal

00:30:09.420 Englishmen are liberal

00:30:10.400 so don't do identity politics

00:30:11.760 just let all of these

00:30:12.900 other groups

00:30:13.640 who hate you

00:30:14.380 organise against you

00:30:15.800 on identity basis

00:30:16.920 that's what

00:30:18.460 liberalism and democracy

00:30:20.020 is about right

00:30:20.720 yeah and it's funny

00:30:21.400 that so when

00:30:22.140 they were called up

00:30:22.920 on the fact

00:30:23.420 that they were

00:30:24.100 stopping monitoring

00:30:25.200 Islamic extremism

00:30:26.280 by William Shawcross

00:30:27.460 the Home Office

00:30:28.280 then set up a seminar

00:30:29.060 in King's College London

00:30:30.020 and so members

00:30:30.960 of the Islamic Network

00:30:31.860 went

00:30:32.300 and I'll finish on this

00:30:33.860 in January 2024

00:30:35.360 at a King's College London

00:30:36.980 course called

00:30:37.940 Issues in Countering Terrorism

00:30:39.980 for the Civil Servants

00:30:41.560 a lecturer described

00:30:42.560 William Shawcross

00:30:43.140 as the type of person

00:30:44.060 who would say

00:30:44.480 all current

00:30:45.020 counter-terrorism

00:30:45.720 professionals are woke

00:30:46.540 he is of that ilk

00:30:47.260 and the same lecturer

00:30:48.200 asked how do we censor

00:30:49.160 Joe Rogan and Douglas Murray

00:30:50.320 so society needs to find

00:30:51.760 other ways to suppress them

00:30:52.580 and then in response

00:30:53.620 a civil servant

00:30:54.680 had said

00:30:55.620 and this is a quote

00:30:56.240 she had argued

00:30:57.220 that Prevent is inherently

00:30:58.220 racist because it focuses

00:30:59.380 on Islamist extremism

00:31:00.360 and then a few minutes

00:31:01.100 later when they played

00:31:02.320 an ISIS recruitment video

00:31:03.500 she pointed at the screen

00:31:04.420 and laughed and went

00:31:05.020 I know him

00:31:05.600 he went to my school

00:31:06.160 these are the people

00:31:08.840 running our government

00:31:09.400 they know literal

00:31:10.540 ISIS terrorists

00:31:11.340 they went to the same school

00:31:12.760 were her parents

00:31:13.760 related at all

00:31:15.240 we wouldn't know

00:31:17.100 I'm afraid

00:31:17.660 we wouldn't know

00:31:18.800 we wouldn't

00:31:19.380 I'm just thinking

00:31:20.300 because that seems like

00:31:21.160 a very stupid thing

00:31:22.320 to say immediately

00:31:23.160 after accusing this

00:31:24.140 of being racist

00:31:24.880 I don't

00:31:25.360 yeah

00:31:25.700 well so

00:31:26.360 basically the conclusion

00:31:27.880 of this story

00:31:28.280 is that Labour government

00:31:28.940 have now denounced

00:31:29.440 this report a second time

00:31:30.560 but again we know

00:31:31.700 this is their intention

00:31:32.400 because they commissioned

00:31:32.960 the report

00:31:33.380 everyone who's done

00:31:34.740 the report

00:31:35.140 is staying in their job

00:31:36.220 and the Home Office

00:31:37.700 Islamic Network

00:31:38.380 that actually run this country

00:31:39.460 and allow Islamist terrorists 0.95

00:31:40.520 to slip through the net

00:31:41.300 according to William Shawcross

00:31:42.300 in liaise with

00:31:43.460 actual prescribed

00:31:44.520 jihadist group

00:31:45.040 Hizbut Tahir

00:31:45.660 that Keir Starmer

00:31:46.720 represented pro bono

00:31:47.720 as a lawyer while

00:31:48.300 working as the director

00:31:49.260 of public prosecutions

00:31:50.200 yeah they're basically

00:31:51.900 just allowing terrorists

00:31:52.960 to run riot in Britain

00:31:54.140 so that's who's really

00:31:55.420 running the country

00:31:55.960 fun

00:31:56.680 right we've got

00:31:58.800 some rumble rants

00:31:59.360 apologies for being

00:32:00.820 quite silent during

00:32:01.700 that first half

00:32:02.480 of your segment

00:32:03.000 I think I started dying

00:32:04.520 yeah I know

00:32:05.620 it's very

00:32:06.220 no no not because of that

00:32:07.760 the shirt's too tight

00:32:09.000 and the collar

00:32:09.720 was choking me out

00:32:10.940 my left foot went numb

00:32:12.180 oh right

00:32:12.640 right headed

00:32:13.520 okay

00:32:14.060 understandable

00:32:14.920 my neck is now too thick

00:32:17.000 to do the buttons up

00:32:18.200 on this shirt all the way

00:32:19.240 wonderful

00:32:19.720 so we've got a couple

00:32:20.700 of rumble rants

00:32:21.300 in XCO

00:32:22.720 moderate Muslim

00:32:23.560 isn't a thing

00:32:24.120 which can be tested

00:32:26.640 quite easily

00:32:27.140 by asking a Muslim

00:32:27.860 a question

00:32:28.240 if Sharia was implemented 0.97

00:32:29.160 would you resist it

00:32:29.900 their answer is

00:32:30.420 we'll be 90%

00:32:31.360 in support of it

00:32:32.040 we actually know

00:32:33.080 I think it would be

00:32:33.560 more than 90%

00:32:34.540 because it's literally

00:32:35.280 their religious law

00:32:36.460 we actually know

00:32:37.320 that 52% of Muslims

00:32:39.420 in the UK

00:32:40.240 want drawings of the

00:32:41.460 Prophet Muhammad 0.98

00:32:41.960 to be criminalised

00:32:43.020 and that's mainly

00:32:43.700 concentrated against

00:32:44.640 among

00:32:45.640 second generation

00:32:46.860 university educated

00:32:48.500 Muslims

00:32:49.040 British born Muslims

00:32:50.120 18 to 30

00:32:51.540 so it's only gonna get worse

00:32:52.360 as Muhammad is now 0.68

00:32:53.380 the most popular

00:32:53.920 baby name in the UK

00:32:54.660 yep

00:32:56.420 apparently also

00:32:57.760 for saying that

00:32:58.580 Prevent is knocking

00:32:59.180 on his front door

00:32:59.980 so sorry about that

00:33:01.000 Bobobad

00:33:02.220 as well

00:33:02.600 $1

00:33:02.840 to add fuel to the fire

00:33:03.840 all these new agencies

00:33:04.900 being made to combat hate

00:33:05.980 are just bloat

00:33:06.680 in a way of taking

00:33:07.220 more tax money

00:33:07.840 while at best

00:33:08.360 doing nothing

00:33:08.800 to stop actual crime

00:33:09.520 and terrorism

00:33:09.880 yeah the purpose of the system

00:33:10.740 is what it does

00:33:11.160 what you need is to

00:33:11.880 repeal the Equality Act

00:33:12.800 the constitutional reform

00:33:13.640 acts and the charities act

00:33:14.520 to defund and fire

00:33:16.000 and then replace

00:33:17.160 every single civil servant

00:33:18.280 in the country

00:33:18.700 apologies in the interests

00:33:19.980 of continuing to not die

00:33:21.500 I'm just making sure

00:33:22.800 I've got circulation

00:33:23.720 I'll allow it

00:33:24.480 this shirt is far too tight

00:33:26.100 for me

00:33:26.460 I need to throw it away

00:33:27.460 you need to sign up

00:33:28.520 to the website

00:33:28.980 so Harry can buy

00:33:29.680 some new shirts

00:33:30.460 for himself

00:33:31.040 please

00:33:31.440 please

00:33:32.020 they're literally

00:33:34.100 killing me

00:33:34.780 I have some good news

00:33:37.380 everyone

00:33:37.800 Trump is doing

00:33:38.760 some good things

00:33:39.660 that he said he would do

00:33:40.700 and I'm very happy about it

00:33:42.520 so I'm going to get

00:33:43.500 right into it

00:33:44.400 so on Trump's first day

00:33:46.440 in office here

00:33:47.260 he says

00:33:47.740 our first day in the White House

00:33:49.060 is not over yet

00:33:49.800 my presidential personal office

00:33:51.220 is actively in the process

00:33:52.580 of identifying and removing

00:33:53.860 over a thousand presidential appointees

00:33:55.760 from the previous administration

00:33:57.020 who are not aligned with our vision

00:33:58.780 to make America great again

00:34:00.280 let this serve as the official notice of dismissal

00:34:03.680 for these four individuals

00:34:05.140 with many more coming soon

00:34:06.620 Jose Andres

00:34:08.720 from the Presidential Council on Sports

00:34:10.800 Fitness and Nutrition

00:34:11.920 Mark Milley

00:34:12.660 from the National Infrastructure Advisory Council

00:34:15.640 Brian Hook

00:34:16.640 from the Wilson Centre of Scholars

00:34:18.260 and Keisha Lance Bottoms 0.90

00:34:20.280 from the President's Export Council

00:34:22.560 you're fired

00:34:23.340 so Mark Milley is currently under investigation

00:34:25.440 from Pete Hegseth now

00:34:26.620 so because he took the pardon

00:34:27.780 before he'd been charged with any crime

00:34:30.160 Pete Hegseth's gone

00:34:30.900 well what crimes were you doing

00:34:32.600 so even if he can't prosecute him

00:34:33.680 he's going to lay it all out in front of him

00:34:35.100 and it's great that he's doing this

00:34:36.240 because as soon as Hegseth was appointed

00:34:38.520 it turns out that

00:34:39.860 people in his department

00:34:41.420 were already trying to do malicious compliance

00:34:42.800 which means that they carry out the laws

00:34:44.660 in such a way that gets the President bad press

00:34:46.900 so they were saying

00:34:47.740 oh you're scrapping all DEI in the military

00:34:49.220 well I guess we're not going to teach

00:34:50.960 about the Tuskegee M

00:34:52.100 and then I guess you're just a racist

00:34:53.740 so all those people that are going to do that

00:34:55.720 and try and gum up the works

00:34:57.840 need to be sacked

00:34:58.780 it looks like he's doing it

00:34:59.680 Mark Milley's finally going to learn

00:35:01.100 the meaning of white rage

00:35:02.680 it's also worth mentioning as well

00:35:04.180 just to make it even more glorious

00:35:06.140 so Trump has revoked security clearance

00:35:10.120 for John Bolton

00:35:11.040 and his security detail

00:35:12.560 as well as General Mark Milley

00:35:14.200 for both of those things

00:35:15.260 and also former Secretary of State

00:35:17.380 Mike Pompeo as well

00:35:18.760 and Anthony Fauci

00:35:19.340 yes and Fauci of course

00:35:21.040 so this is sort of revenge

00:35:23.580 because of course

00:35:24.460 preemptive pardons

00:35:26.140 might have been a mistake

00:35:27.400 it'd be like walking into a room

00:35:30.260 not expecting anything

00:35:31.300 and the other person in the room

00:35:32.720 just turn around and be like

00:35:33.560 I didn't do anything

00:35:34.240 I've not been doing anything

00:35:35.440 you go

00:35:35.760 what have you been doing

00:35:37.680 that's weird

00:35:38.860 but of course

00:35:40.320 in the case of Mark Milley

00:35:41.860 in particular

00:35:42.580 the Ayatollah

00:35:45.160 you know

00:35:46.120 the head of Iran

00:35:46.740 I'm presuming it's an Ayatollah 0.99

00:35:48.940 isn't it

00:35:49.240 I always get it around the wrong way

00:35:50.320 yeah

00:35:51.320 he's sort of out to get him

00:35:53.320 because of what he did

00:35:54.820 when he was in office

00:35:55.640 and so

00:35:56.220 there is actually

00:35:56.940 a legitimate threat against him

00:35:58.520 same with Pompeo

00:35:59.540 well Milley

00:36:00.840 as far as I understand

00:36:01.740 was liaising with

00:36:02.800 the Chinese government

00:36:03.740 what was it

00:36:05.340 during the Trump administration

00:36:06.340 under the nose of Trump

00:36:07.800 but not on his behalf

00:36:09.120 to undermine Trump's

00:36:10.700 explicit orders

00:36:11.640 well that's what they charged

00:36:12.660 Michael Flynn with

00:36:13.780 with the Logan Act

00:36:14.500 that hadn't been used before

00:36:15.720 because he was

00:36:16.320 talking to some international diplomat

00:36:18.060 during the transition stage

00:36:19.460 and so they put him in irons

00:36:21.400 and sent him away

00:36:22.100 that was a malicious prosecution

00:36:25.700 Mark Milley should have been

00:36:26.960 prosecuted for that

00:36:27.740 yes

00:36:28.160 but now he's been pardoned

00:36:29.180 for it before he's even

00:36:29.980 been properly

00:36:30.320 but he also may face demotion

00:36:32.140 in retirement as well

00:36:33.160 so that's something else

00:36:34.380 and of course

00:36:35.160 the civil servants

00:36:35.960 are not too happy

00:36:36.800 about the way

00:36:37.440 Trump is dealing with things

00:36:38.720 because they're plotting

00:36:39.740 to sabotage Trump's

00:36:40.860 working from home ban

00:36:41.820 because he said that

00:36:42.740 everyone actually needs

00:36:43.840 to come in and do work

00:36:44.840 because there are

00:36:46.120 lots of indicators

00:36:47.060 that they're not doing work

00:36:48.760 when they're working from home

00:36:49.760 which generally speaking

00:36:51.280 as someone who doesn't like

00:36:52.280 governments

00:36:53.180 I support them

00:36:54.700 not doing work

00:36:55.460 but if you want the government

00:36:57.060 to be efficient

00:36:57.640 you don't want them

00:36:58.700 going on Reddit like this

00:36:59.840 this was something

00:37:00.900 that you sent to me Connor

00:37:01.800 apparently

00:37:02.980 r slash fed news

00:37:04.880 the largest subreddit

00:37:05.820 for federal workers

00:37:06.600 seems to be most active

00:37:07.700 during working hours

00:37:08.980 and you can see here

00:37:10.700 it seems to cover

00:37:12.560 the nine to five

00:37:13.180 doesn't it

00:37:13.640 which is when they should be

00:37:15.680 doing their job

00:37:16.500 and not browsing Reddit

00:37:18.360 even though I suppose

00:37:19.280 it is related to their job

00:37:20.900 in a very tangential way

00:37:22.220 but still

00:37:22.840 so we've gone from

00:37:23.020 Reddit occupied government

00:37:24.140 to an unoccupied government

00:37:25.280 it seems like it

00:37:26.920 but it's obvious

00:37:28.800 that they're not necessarily

00:37:30.100 doing what's best

00:37:31.300 for the American people

00:37:32.100 because they're

00:37:33.200 maliciously resisting

00:37:34.740 an elected representative

00:37:36.380 as well as the fact

00:37:37.880 they're not actually

00:37:38.500 doing their job

00:37:39.100 clearly

00:37:39.660 so

00:37:41.380 there's also

00:37:43.180 this

00:37:43.900 which I thought

00:37:44.560 was hilarious

00:37:45.240 and I really liked

00:37:46.240 Trump invites nearly

00:37:47.320 all federal workers

00:37:48.380 to quit now

00:37:49.100 and get paid

00:37:49.640 through to September

00:37:50.440 he's basically

00:37:51.160 enacting the

00:37:51.620 Curtis Yarvin plan

00:37:52.580 of retiring

00:37:53.120 all government employees

00:37:53.960 yes

00:37:54.580 oh it's wonderful

00:37:55.880 so apparently

00:37:57.640 he's given employees

00:37:59.240 until the 6th of February

00:38:00.700 to accept the deal

00:38:01.800 and

00:38:02.660 this is a deferred

00:38:04.180 resignation

00:38:04.580 to nearly all

00:38:05.920 employees

00:38:06.560 with the exception

00:38:07.420 of military personnel

00:38:08.560 employees of the

00:38:09.840 US Postal Service

00:38:10.820 those in positions

00:38:11.700 related to

00:38:12.300 immigration enforcement

00:38:13.440 naturally

00:38:14.340 and national security

00:38:16.160 as well as those

00:38:17.600 in other positions

00:38:18.460 specifically excluded

00:38:19.700 by agency leadership

00:38:20.900 which I wasn't able

00:38:22.060 to find out

00:38:22.500 what they were though

00:38:23.120 this covers everything

00:38:24.060 that schedule F

00:38:24.640 doesn't already cover

00:38:25.420 yes

00:38:26.120 so there are also

00:38:27.900 some other things

00:38:28.500 I wanted to round up

00:38:29.180 before we go on

00:38:29.760 to some more specific cases

00:38:31.140 he's also placed

00:38:32.280 over 2,000

00:38:33.400 federal diversity

00:38:34.240 equity and inclusion

00:38:35.240 employees on leave

00:38:36.300 that's the main thing

00:38:38.900 I think that's great

00:38:39.760 all on its own

00:38:40.600 2,000 people

00:38:41.480 that are just

00:38:42.020 counterproductive

00:38:43.320 to the American people's

00:38:44.300 way of life

00:38:44.820 gone

00:38:45.540 and then

00:38:46.980 let's go on to this

00:38:48.500 because

00:38:48.820 do you remember

00:38:49.320 how I've said

00:38:50.000 that England

00:38:50.380 doesn't get fixed

00:38:51.220 until London

00:38:52.280 is flooded

00:38:52.920 with homeless

00:38:53.900 former civil servants

00:38:55.480 Donald Trump

00:38:56.540 must have listened

00:38:57.220 to that

00:38:57.840 this is a great idea

00:38:59.600 Washington DC

00:39:00.540 will be flooded

00:39:01.360 with homeless

00:39:02.100 government department

00:39:03.100 workers

00:39:03.580 you joke

00:39:04.600 but my friends

00:39:05.180 in the administration

00:39:06.020 agree with that

00:39:07.400 sentiment entirely

00:39:08.060 good

00:39:08.440 I'm not joking

00:39:09.980 yeah yeah

00:39:10.900 I want civil servants 0.98

00:39:12.240 to be unemployed

00:39:12.900 because

00:39:13.480 they're quite often

00:39:15.520 awful people

00:39:16.320 that are using

00:39:16.900 their position

00:39:17.520 that's meant to be

00:39:18.220 neutral

00:39:18.620 to influence

00:39:19.480 things in a way

00:39:20.560 that they're not

00:39:21.200 supposed to

00:39:21.740 and we see

00:39:23.360 the natural state

00:39:24.380 of the federal

00:39:25.360 worker in America

00:39:26.280 is a Redditor

00:39:27.400 as well

00:39:28.060 through the figures

00:39:28.700 you've just shown us

00:39:29.460 so that's even worse

00:39:30.880 my dream job

00:39:31.840 I never want to go

00:39:32.680 into frontline politics

00:39:33.560 but say everyone

00:39:34.800 that we want to win

00:39:35.700 wins

00:39:36.260 and they're handpicking

00:39:37.040 people a la

00:39:37.800 Project 2025

00:39:38.660 I would want to be

00:39:40.080 the senior civil servant

00:39:41.140 of the Home Office

00:39:41.560 just so I can fire

00:39:42.200 every single one of them

00:39:43.000 individually and in person

00:39:43.980 the glee

00:39:44.860 I would get out of

00:39:46.240 just saying

00:39:46.580 you've got 15 minutes

00:39:47.320 to pack all your stuff

00:39:48.040 otherwise we are

00:39:48.800 forcibly removing you

00:39:49.760 once they're all gone

00:39:50.940 there's only one person

00:39:52.440 left to fire

00:39:53.380 and you retire

00:39:54.380 into the night

00:39:55.840 happily

00:39:56.440 if only

00:39:59.000 so

00:39:59.760 this is titled

00:40:02.100 Trump administration

00:40:03.000 dismisses members

00:40:03.800 of all DHS advisory

00:40:05.140 panels

00:40:05.500 including the CSRB

00:40:07.080 which is the

00:40:08.680 Cyber Safety Review

00:40:09.700 Board

00:40:10.060 so

00:40:11.580 there are also

00:40:12.680 a number of people

00:40:13.400 resigning

00:40:13.980 so this is the

00:40:14.780 Department of Homeland

00:40:15.460 Security being purged

00:40:16.700 so Trump can carry out

00:40:18.060 his deportations

00:40:19.080 I imagine

00:40:19.480 because this would be

00:40:20.000 going through

00:40:20.520 the DHS

00:40:21.500 and so

00:40:22.440 this is great

00:40:23.220 it means that

00:40:23.760 no one will be

00:40:24.200 standing in the way

00:40:24.960 and it can run

00:40:25.980 like a well-oiled

00:40:26.900 machine

00:40:27.240 and hopefully

00:40:27.880 as it becomes

00:40:28.420 more and more

00:40:28.820 efficient

00:40:29.200 it means they can

00:40:30.320 send more and more

00:40:30.880 people back to

00:40:31.720 where they came from

00:40:32.400 which is wonderful

00:40:33.280 and it seems to be

00:40:34.400 already having an effect

00:40:35.600 because

00:40:36.320 let's have a look at this

00:40:37.940 Trump fires first woman

00:40:39.200 to lead US military service

00:40:40.900 which is hilarious

00:40:41.580 in and of itself

00:40:42.400 which is Admiral

00:40:43.460 Linda Fagan

00:40:44.300 the first woman

00:40:45.260 to lead

00:40:45.700 one of the six

00:40:46.640 US military services

00:40:47.680 as the head

00:40:48.220 of the Coast Guard

00:40:49.060 she was obsessed

00:40:50.440 with DEI

00:40:51.080 was yeah

00:40:51.880 and a Department

00:40:53.740 for Homeland Security

00:40:54.620 official

00:40:55.200 clearly wanting

00:40:56.040 to keep their job

00:40:56.860 said

00:40:57.400 the official statement

00:40:59.760 was

00:41:00.300 you know

00:41:00.920 we fired her 1.00

00:41:01.620 because she's not

00:41:02.100 the right fit

00:41:02.660 but they said

00:41:03.500 because of her

00:41:04.380 leadership deficiencies

00:41:05.420 operational failures

00:41:06.620 and inability to advance

00:41:07.880 the strategic objectives

00:41:09.320 of the US Coast Guard

00:41:10.560 the Admiral failed

00:41:12.040 to address border security

00:41:13.180 threats

00:41:13.480 mismanaged acquisitions

00:41:14.940 including helicopters

00:41:16.100 and put excessive focus

00:41:17.660 on diversity

00:41:18.340 equity

00:41:18.740 and inclusion programs

00:41:19.880 they're getting a raise

00:41:21.000 whoever said that

00:41:21.680 the atmosphere in DC

00:41:22.840 now basically just matches

00:41:23.900 that on

00:41:24.280 unparalleled confidence

00:41:25.380 it's just jubilant

00:41:26.620 it's doing a victory lap

00:41:28.720 there's like a third

00:41:29.400 of the people I saw

00:41:30.080 walking the streets

00:41:30.740 are in MAGA hats

00:41:31.520 they're just open

00:41:32.200 carrying now

00:41:32.900 this is

00:41:33.420 they're in the ascendancy

00:41:35.160 it's MAGA country 0.92

00:41:36.260 you might say

00:41:36.720 genuinely yes

00:41:37.680 they're open carrying

00:41:38.540 their hats

00:41:39.100 my goodness

00:41:39.800 it's great

00:41:40.520 if only

00:41:42.760 got an extra hat

00:41:43.520 holstered

00:41:44.180 got a nice ankle hat

00:41:46.040 here just in case

00:41:47.040 it's nice to sit

00:41:47.680 on the crawl kids

00:41:48.200 MAGA socks

00:41:48.820 there you go

00:41:49.720 so another one here

00:41:51.500 he suspended a dozen

00:41:55.100 top officials

00:41:55.700 for blocking his

00:41:56.460 freeze on foreign aid

00:41:57.360 that's 57 top staff

00:41:58.920 in the agency

00:42:00.900 for international

00:42:01.600 development

00:42:02.080 and now on leave

00:42:03.020 did you hear what

00:42:03.480 they were spending this on

00:42:04.160 at the press conference

00:42:05.540 yesterday

00:42:05.840 they found out

00:42:07.360 that for example

00:42:07.860 50 million dollars a year

00:42:09.180 was being spent on

00:42:09.900 condoms in Gaza

00:42:10.620 I'm willing to

00:42:13.460 hear them out

00:42:13.900 I prefer the Israeli

00:42:15.560 strategy on these things

00:42:16.280 I'm not elaborate

00:42:17.780 so you give loads

00:42:19.280 and loads of money

00:42:20.020 to Israel

00:42:20.680 and then you also

00:42:22.000 give loads and loads

00:42:22.860 of money to Gaza

00:42:24.320 I'm playing both sides

00:42:26.380 I suppose so

00:42:28.180 I mean I suppose

00:42:28.860 the result is the same

00:42:30.200 I feel like that kind

00:42:31.640 of protection is not

00:42:32.340 the kind the people

00:42:33.080 of Gaza need

00:42:33.860 to be honest

00:42:34.400 but there we go

00:42:35.300 I guess so

00:42:37.360 that's a bit of Kevlar

00:42:38.660 yeah

00:42:39.120 use it again I suppose

00:42:41.460 recycling

00:42:42.060 green

00:42:43.460 that's yeah

00:42:44.200 Allah Akbar is 0.51

00:42:44.900 recycling in Arabic

00:42:45.860 isn't it

00:42:46.180 yes that's right

00:42:48.320 but there's also this

00:42:50.220 Trump has fired

00:42:51.260 an Iran hawk

00:42:52.280 called Hook

00:42:53.000 difficult to say

00:42:55.200 that sentence

00:42:55.740 very quickly

00:42:56.240 Brian Hook

00:42:56.980 was the Iran envoy

00:42:58.360 in Trump's first term

00:42:59.520 this is sort of

00:43:00.600 signalling that he's

00:43:01.220 learnt some lessons

00:43:01.840 because of course

00:43:02.580 Pompeo

00:43:03.920 of course was his

00:43:05.480 secretary

00:43:05.880 at one point

00:43:07.000 and here he's

00:43:08.520 getting rid of

00:43:09.420 another person

00:43:10.200 who he feels like

00:43:11.020 isn't up to scratch

00:43:11.800 the second time round

00:43:12.840 so I think

00:43:13.660 having some

00:43:14.680 insight

00:43:15.260 because obviously

00:43:16.040 Douglas went to

00:43:16.960 Mar-a-Lago on

00:43:17.660 election night

00:43:18.180 and spoke with

00:43:18.520 Trump for quite a

00:43:19.120 while and he's

00:43:19.540 always been very

00:43:20.300 hawkish on Iran

00:43:20.960 he's worked for

00:43:21.380 the Henry Jackson

00:43:21.760 Society

00:43:22.180 he's spent a lot

00:43:22.600 of time in Israel

00:43:23.060 and I'm working

00:43:24.960 quite closely with

00:43:25.600 Ayan Hirsi Ali

00:43:26.200 on the global

00:43:27.120 influence of the

00:43:27.580 Muslim Brotherhood

00:43:28.160 what I think is

00:43:29.260 happening is that

00:43:30.120 the Trump

00:43:30.400 administration are

00:43:30.960 very watchful

00:43:31.780 for Islamist

00:43:32.440 infiltration into

00:43:33.400 America

00:43:33.840 and laundering

00:43:35.500 ideas through

00:43:37.020 NGOs that are 1.00

00:43:37.980 funded by the

00:43:38.560 likes of Qatar

00:43:39.260 Iran

00:43:39.860 Muslim Brotherhood

00:43:40.880 but they don't

00:43:42.320 want to roll

00:43:42.860 tanks into

00:43:43.640 Tehran

00:43:44.240 as John Bolton

00:43:45.300 once said

00:43:45.620 because they

00:43:45.840 realise that

00:43:46.240 the forever wars

00:43:46.960 are a fruitless

00:43:47.400 endeavour

00:43:47.720 instead if you

00:43:48.420 just cut off

00:43:48.900 the funding

00:43:49.260 pipeline

00:43:49.700 stop funding

00:43:50.640 your enemies

00:43:51.100 then you won't

00:43:51.880 have this global

00:43:52.580 terror network

00:43:53.300 and if you

00:43:54.140 encourage the

00:43:54.720 members of the

00:43:55.120 Abraham Accords

00:43:55.800 like the UAE

00:43:56.780 and Saudi Arabia

00:43:57.760 who have already

00:43:58.380 banned the Muslim 1.00

00:43:59.020 Brotherhood because

00:43:59.580 they're not insane

00:44:00.300 to police the region

00:44:01.360 you actually get

00:44:02.220 the same effect

00:44:03.400 of containing the

00:44:04.200 terror threat

00:44:04.600 without having to

00:44:05.100 waste American 0.95

00:44:05.560 blood and treasure

00:44:06.060 yeah because

00:44:07.340 you look at

00:44:08.300 the history of

00:44:09.320 any Islamic

00:44:10.220 group

00:44:10.780 that commits

00:44:11.500 terror

00:44:11.820 and you find

00:44:12.900 oh wait

00:44:13.400 they were funded

00:44:14.080 by the US

00:44:14.520 at some point

00:44:15.140 almost every time

00:44:16.900 so yes

00:44:17.820 also the Soviet

00:44:18.540 Union for a time

00:44:19.720 was basically

00:44:20.740 funded by the US

00:44:21.920 even during

00:44:23.040 parts of the

00:44:23.600 Cold War

00:44:24.140 so you look

00:44:24.760 and you go

00:44:25.100 maybe America

00:44:25.780 after a hundred

00:44:26.520 years is finally

00:44:27.360 learning that's

00:44:28.040 not the best

00:44:28.600 idea

00:44:29.040 funny enough

00:44:30.160 spending your

00:44:30.700 money at home

00:44:31.360 is often better

00:44:32.160 than giving it

00:44:32.760 to your enemies

00:44:33.520 who'd have thought

00:44:34.380 but there we go

00:44:35.140 and here's another

00:44:36.800 one as well

00:44:37.180 I thought this was

00:44:37.820 quite funny

00:44:38.420 as a headline

00:44:39.000 Trump fires

00:44:39.600 two democratic

00:44:40.300 commissioners

00:44:40.900 of agencies

00:44:41.820 that enforce

00:44:42.400 civil rights

00:44:43.140 laws in the

00:44:43.640 workplace

00:44:44.140 affirmative action

00:44:44.880 yes

00:44:45.680 it isn't like

00:44:47.420 he's gonna

00:44:48.020 say okay

00:44:49.240 you know

00:44:49.780 1964 laws

00:44:51.300 are repealed

00:44:52.260 back to the

00:44:53.780 fields

00:44:54.040 that's not

00:44:54.560 what's going

00:44:54.900 on here

00:44:55.360 so I'm gonna

00:44:56.760 read here

00:44:57.340 the two commissioners

00:44:58.220 of the Equal

00:44:59.020 Employment

00:44:59.680 Opportunity

00:45:00.360 Commission

00:45:00.720 so you're

00:45:01.160 already starting

00:45:01.780 to hear

00:45:02.240 what they're

00:45:02.940 actually doing

00:45:03.620 it's like

00:45:04.380 DEI under

00:45:05.700 another name

00:45:06.220 anti-white

00:45:06.700 racism

00:45:06.980 yeah

00:45:07.480 Charlotte Burroughs

00:45:08.720 and Jocelyn

00:45:09.340 Samuels

00:45:09.880 confirmed in a

00:45:10.520 statement on

00:45:11.180 Tuesday that

00:45:12.020 they were

00:45:12.400 fired late

00:45:13.400 on Monday

00:45:13.920 night

00:45:14.200 I'm correcting

00:45:14.780 that because

00:45:15.200 it says late

00:45:15.780 Monday which

00:45:16.560 is grammatically

00:45:17.100 incorrect

00:45:17.620 please correct

00:45:18.440 that America

00:45:18.940 both said

00:45:20.380 they were

00:45:20.740 exploring options

00:45:21.580 to challenge

00:45:22.140 their dismissals

00:45:22.960 calling their

00:45:23.440 removal before

00:45:24.060 the expiration

00:45:24.720 of their

00:45:25.100 five-year

00:45:25.520 terms

00:45:25.900 an unprecedented

00:45:26.760 decision

00:45:27.420 that undermines

00:45:28.260 agencies

00:45:28.840 independence

00:45:29.380 and we're

00:45:30.020 seeing this

00:45:30.360 a lot

00:45:30.740 whereby

00:45:31.180 the people

00:45:32.580 who have

00:45:32.900 been fired

00:45:33.440 are like

00:45:33.880 you can't

00:45:34.440 do that

00:45:34.740 that's bad

00:45:35.260 that's illegal

00:45:35.980 we already

00:45:36.900 set the

00:45:37.480 institutions

00:45:38.320 on rails

00:45:39.200 that go

00:45:39.600 towards one

00:45:40.160 progressive

00:45:40.520 direction

00:45:40.980 and if you

00:45:41.460 want to

00:45:41.700 derail that

00:45:42.200 train

00:45:42.520 well that's

00:45:43.180 divisive

00:45:43.640 and political

00:45:44.160 no you've

00:45:44.820 already got

00:45:45.080 a political

00:45:45.340 agenda

00:45:45.680 baked into

00:45:46.200 the institution

00:45:46.680 this isn't

00:45:47.360 what democracy

00:45:47.960 is about

00:45:48.460 democracy

00:45:48.860 isn't about

00:45:49.420 the person

00:45:50.020 who gets

00:45:50.400 voted in

00:45:50.940 doing what

00:45:51.320 he said

00:45:51.580 he would

00:45:51.860 it's about

00:45:52.240 me

00:45:52.600 an unaccountable

00:45:53.700 bureaucrat

00:45:54.560 exactly

00:45:55.160 and the

00:45:56.100 funny thing

00:45:56.460 is the

00:45:57.920 you know

00:45:58.520 the president

00:45:59.500 is the

00:46:00.120 chief executive

00:46:00.900 right

00:46:01.220 they are the

00:46:01.960 boss of the

00:46:02.420 executive

00:46:02.900 department

00:46:03.260 and therefore

00:46:03.840 they should

00:46:04.220 be able to

00:46:04.600 employ and

00:46:05.100 hire whoever

00:46:06.000 they want

00:46:06.540 because that

00:46:07.860 is that

00:46:08.240 they're working

00:46:09.020 for trump

00:46:09.740 not the other

00:46:10.240 way around

00:46:10.700 and so

00:46:11.440 they're his

00:46:11.980 to fire

00:46:12.400 really

00:46:12.800 we used to

00:46:13.260 have that

00:46:13.480 in this

00:46:13.700 country

00:46:13.960 until the

00:46:14.300 2010

00:46:14.560 constitutional

00:46:15.100 reform

00:46:15.500 act

00:46:15.740 repeal

00:46:16.260 please

00:46:16.640 so this

00:46:18.160 is another

00:46:18.560 one of my

00:46:19.000 favourites

00:46:19.460 as well

00:46:20.220 because it

00:46:21.180 sounds so

00:46:21.680 insidious

00:46:22.060 trump fires

00:46:22.800 17 government

00:46:23.620 watchdogs

00:46:24.120 in the middle

00:46:24.580 of the night

00:46:25.100 ooh

00:46:25.640 scary

00:46:26.180 why not

00:46:26.600 18

00:46:26.860 why not

00:46:27.160 19

00:46:27.440 keep going

00:46:27.980 yeah

00:46:28.380 but a key

00:46:29.200 one remains

00:46:29.780 in his

00:46:30.060 post

00:46:30.440 this is such a

00:46:31.720 clickbait

00:46:32.060 title by the way

00:46:32.760 I thought it was

00:46:33.060 amusing

00:46:33.400 the subtitle is

00:46:34.240 trump is

00:46:34.600 dismantling

00:46:35.080 checks on

00:46:35.480 his power

00:46:36.060 and paving

00:46:36.540 the way

00:46:36.920 for widespread

00:46:37.360 corruption

00:46:37.800 says

00:46:38.440 elizabeth

00:46:39.000 warren

00:46:39.500 thank you

00:46:40.560 liar

00:46:40.800 wather

00:46:41.100 yeah

00:46:41.940 pocahontas

00:46:42.740 herself

00:46:43.140 speaks

00:46:43.560 so the

00:46:45.260 so the

00:46:45.280 only person

00:46:45.900 that was

00:46:46.520 left

00:46:46.840 was

00:46:47.440 justice

00:46:48.960 department

00:46:49.400 inspector

00:46:49.840 general

00:46:50.180 michael

00:46:50.520 horowitz

00:46:50.980 for whatever

00:46:51.380 reason

00:46:51.740 and one

00:46:53.120 of the

00:46:53.320 fired

00:46:53.500 officials

00:46:53.760 told the

00:46:54.180 post

00:46:54.460 it's a

00:46:55.040 widespread

00:46:55.380 massacre

00:46:55.900 whoever trump

00:46:56.480 puts in now

00:46:57.040 will be viewed

00:46:57.480 as loyalists

00:46:58.160 and that

00:46:58.700 undermines the

00:46:59.360 entire system

00:47:00.080 which i find

00:47:00.840 hilarious

00:47:01.220 because surely

00:47:02.640 you undermine

00:47:03.280 the entire

00:47:03.760 system by

00:47:04.620 not being

00:47:05.780 aligned to

00:47:06.240 the person

00:47:06.580 at the top

00:47:06.940 of it

00:47:07.220 well this

00:47:08.620 was always

00:47:09.260 the way

00:47:09.720 it's just

00:47:10.380 that there

00:47:11.500 were no

00:47:12.100 let's say

00:47:13.200 national populist

00:47:14.520 friendly press

00:47:15.440 outlets

00:47:15.960 championing the

00:47:17.040 fact that they

00:47:17.460 were staffing

00:47:17.960 institutions full

00:47:18.700 of their people

00:47:19.220 and they got

00:47:19.840 complacent before

00:47:20.520 and presumed

00:47:21.280 that all these

00:47:21.620 institutions were

00:47:22.160 neutral and

00:47:22.640 instead they

00:47:23.100 constantly gummed

00:47:24.140 up the works

00:47:24.720 but when they

00:47:26.020 were doing it

00:47:26.520 they just didn't

00:47:27.180 say anything

00:47:27.500 about it

00:47:27.880 and they had

00:47:28.460 no one screaming

00:47:29.180 hang on a minute

00:47:29.740 it's full of

00:47:30.320 their guys

00:47:30.780 it's full of

00:47:31.200 their loyalists

00:47:31.740 why are they

00:47:32.560 politicizing the

00:47:33.540 institution

00:47:33.860 well now we're

00:47:34.680 just being

00:47:35.120 honest

00:47:35.720 it's like yeah

00:47:36.120 we want to

00:47:36.780 hire people

00:47:37.200 that are going

00:47:37.520 to carry out

00:47:37.840 the president's

00:47:38.240 agenda

00:47:38.460 it's how it's

00:47:39.980 always been

00:47:40.360 we want to

00:47:41.260 get rid of

00:47:41.460 your guys

00:47:41.760 and put our

00:47:42.080 guys in

00:47:42.400 welcome to

00:47:43.120 politics

00:47:43.440 that's

00:47:44.620 politics 101

00:47:45.580 actually

00:47:46.040 so this has

00:47:47.940 been met

00:47:48.840 with mixed

00:47:49.220 reactions

00:47:49.600 some of the

00:47:50.100 senate republicans

00:47:50.860 have defended

00:47:51.460 trump firing

00:47:52.460 these peoples

00:47:53.020 here's tom

00:47:53.920 cotton saying

00:47:54.480 ultimately these

00:47:55.180 inspector generals

00:47:55.880 serve at the

00:47:57.000 pleasure of the

00:47:57.540 president

00:47:57.860 he wants new

00:47:58.660 people in there

00:47:59.260 he wants people

00:47:59.960 focused on getting

00:48:00.660 out waste and

00:48:01.440 fraud and abuse

00:48:02.260 and reforming

00:48:02.880 these agencies

00:48:03.420 he has a right

00:48:04.440 to get in

00:48:04.980 who he wants

00:48:05.780 everyone who

00:48:06.480 hasn't defended

00:48:07.160 them needs to 0.65

00:48:07.700 be primaried

00:48:08.160 yes and

00:48:09.840 here we've got

00:48:11.260 obviously left

00:48:12.240 wing outlets

00:48:12.760 sort of picking

00:48:13.540 up on some of

00:48:14.280 the republicans

00:48:15.260 that are a bit

00:48:15.620 upset about this

00:48:16.380 so iowa republican

00:48:17.680 senator chuck

00:48:18.380 grassley

00:48:19.020 91 by the way

00:48:20.460 ancient

00:48:21.060 a staunch

00:48:22.880 trump ally

00:48:23.420 they say

00:48:23.980 said in a

00:48:24.940 statement obtained

00:48:25.540 by cnn

00:48:26.100 that congress

00:48:27.040 wasn't notified

00:48:27.740 in advance of

00:48:28.440 the firings

00:48:29.020 in adherence

00:48:29.680 to the law

00:48:30.240 and this is a

00:48:31.440 quote

00:48:31.700 there may be a

00:48:32.440 good reason

00:48:32.900 the igs were 0.99

00:48:33.940 fired

00:48:34.360 grassley

00:48:34.900 noted on

00:48:35.360 saturday

00:48:35.820 we need to

00:48:36.420 know that

00:48:37.520 if so

00:48:38.040 i'd like a

00:48:38.680 further explanation

00:48:39.460 from president

00:48:40.000 trump

00:48:40.260 regardless the

00:48:40.960 30-day detailed

00:48:41.820 notice of

00:48:42.400 removal that

00:48:42.960 law demands

00:48:43.580 was not

00:48:43.980 provided to

00:48:44.500 congress

00:48:44.820 so it's

00:48:45.400 more of a

00:48:45.780 procedural

00:48:46.340 objection that

00:48:47.420 he has more

00:48:47.980 than anything

00:48:48.340 else

00:48:48.760 which i can

00:48:50.360 understand but

00:48:51.200 also

00:48:51.660 don't be

00:48:52.080 allergic to

00:48:52.560 winning

00:48:52.780 yeah

00:48:53.360 you ask for

00:48:54.260 forgiveness

00:48:54.740 not for

00:48:55.320 permission

00:48:55.680 this is

00:48:56.360 essentially

00:48:56.780 this is

00:48:58.540 essentially

00:49:00.700 the same

00:49:01.820 tactic that

00:49:02.380 blair took

00:49:03.120 in revolutionizing

00:49:04.740 how britain is

00:49:05.920 governed by

00:49:06.440 basically doing

00:49:07.420 things and then

00:49:08.580 announcing after

00:49:09.240 he'd already done

00:49:09.860 them that he

00:49:10.360 did that's what

00:49:11.580 he did and

00:49:12.520 too late it's

00:49:13.240 done now you

00:49:13.920 can't do anything

00:49:14.520 about it

00:49:15.060 people don't

00:49:15.580 drum up as much

00:49:16.260 of a fuss once

00:49:17.040 you've already done

00:49:17.660 it because they

00:49:18.120 can't stop it

00:49:19.280 a lot of the

00:49:19.900 reason there's a

00:49:20.440 lot of fuss

00:49:20.920 drummed up in

00:49:21.400 the media is

00:49:22.000 because it

00:49:22.880 could help

00:49:23.260 prevent something

00:49:23.880 happening but

00:49:24.420 if it's already

00:49:24.860 happened too bad

00:49:26.160 if it's also

00:49:26.680 happening all at

00:49:27.180 once you just

00:49:27.580 overwhelm them

00:49:28.180 like they can't

00:49:29.120 they can only

00:49:29.460 manufacture so

00:49:30.180 many headlines

00:49:30.700 about the

00:49:31.060 executive orders

00:49:31.640 that you've

00:49:31.880 already got

00:49:32.120 pre-printed and

00:49:32.760 going out the

00:49:33.240 door and then

00:49:33.880 it just becomes

00:49:34.340 ordinary if you

00:49:35.100 just do all

00:49:35.420 wasn't this a

00:49:36.000 Machiavelli tactic

00:49:36.860 yes well yeah

00:49:38.020 and also right

00:49:39.300 now as well

00:49:39.940 there's only so

00:49:41.000 much sympathy that

00:49:41.980 you can generate

00:49:42.680 for faceless

00:49:43.320 bureaucrats

00:49:43.980 i don't think

00:49:44.920 there's much

00:49:45.360 sympathy is there

00:49:46.020 exactly

00:49:46.320 it's also worth

00:49:47.340 mentioning as well

00:49:48.060 just as a bit

00:49:48.780 of an aside

00:49:49.360 trump has been

00:49:50.040 doing so much

00:49:50.960 that it's making

00:49:51.840 our job as

00:49:52.440 political commentators

00:49:53.280 so difficult to

00:49:54.320 keep up with

00:49:54.900 what's going on

00:49:55.640 just banned all

00:49:56.480 gender surgeries

00:49:57.380 and chemical

00:49:58.480 castration drugs

00:49:59.360 for children

00:49:59.840 yesterday it's

00:50:00.500 like i mean i'll

00:50:01.940 say i i was

00:50:02.720 skeptical that he

00:50:03.760 was actually going

00:50:04.400 to do anything

00:50:04.980 that he said but

00:50:06.060 he's he's actually

00:50:07.440 it's great doing

00:50:08.360 things because the

00:50:09.080 people around him

00:50:09.800 are very motivated

00:50:10.880 but never in my

00:50:12.360 uh almost four and

00:50:13.600 a half years at

00:50:14.300 lotus eaters have

00:50:15.360 i had to struggle

00:50:16.840 to keep up with

00:50:18.080 the goings-on of

00:50:19.100 politics and trump

00:50:20.100 is making me do

00:50:20.700 that so well done

00:50:21.420 um it's making me

00:50:22.840 up my game all

00:50:23.620 right so good on

00:50:24.720 you trump that's

00:50:25.200 just another thing

00:50:25.820 you're doing right

00:50:26.400 so um here's

00:50:29.060 another one here

00:50:29.720 um there she

00:50:31.400 is glad she's

00:50:33.160 gone i mean it's

00:50:34.020 another labor board

00:50:34.800 official the same

00:50:35.600 sort of thing right

00:50:36.360 and it's like an

00:50:37.840 ai photo is that

00:50:39.560 weird looking

00:50:40.160 what was what was

00:50:41.860 the laugh there

00:50:42.540 connor is there

00:50:43.200 something strange

00:50:43.980 about this yeah

00:50:44.560 she looks like she

00:50:45.180 looks like ros from 0.95

00:50:45.780 monsters inc

00:50:46.380 yeah i see it

00:50:49.880 another lady has

00:50:51.820 been fired as well

00:50:52.640 um there we go

00:50:54.980 the longhouse is

00:50:56.240 being dismantled

00:50:57.120 it is indeed

00:50:57.640 splinter by splinter

00:50:58.620 so uh she's

00:51:02.160 another person she

00:51:03.060 was the national

00:51:03.860 labor relations

00:51:04.660 board's uh leading

00:51:06.160 attorney so a

00:51:07.460 communist yes

00:51:08.420 almost said

00:51:09.160 shorthand for

00:51:09.520 communists yeah

00:51:10.300 because that all of

00:51:11.840 the media have been

00:51:12.440 coming out and

00:51:12.900 saying like well

00:51:13.980 workers rights are

00:51:15.080 no longer protected

00:51:16.100 it's like well

00:51:17.060 really you're gonna

00:51:18.460 make it possible for

00:51:19.200 for people to fire

00:51:20.020 people thereby

00:51:20.700 attracting business

00:51:21.440 into the country to

00:51:22.280 bail you out of your

00:51:23.060 inflation and debt

00:51:23.760 spiral great good

00:51:24.820 also which we saw

00:51:26.540 the bloomberg report

00:51:27.680 from a few years ago

00:51:28.700 which workers are

00:51:29.640 you defending whose

00:51:30.500 rights are you

00:51:31.160 actually sticking up

00:51:32.040 for because it's not

00:51:32.680 the americans rights

00:51:33.740 no certainly not

00:51:34.580 because they're

00:51:34.920 importing loads of

00:51:35.740 people to replace

00:51:36.400 them aren't they

00:51:37.100 you'd think that'd be

00:51:38.420 number one concern

00:51:39.300 this one was

00:51:40.480 particularly sweet

00:51:41.240 trump justice

00:51:41.900 department says it

00:51:42.840 has fired employees

00:51:43.680 involved in prosecution

00:51:44.600 of the president

00:51:45.400 this is trump's

00:51:46.400 revenge it is very

00:51:47.780 sweet and justified

00:51:48.940 so a doj official

00:51:51.780 said in the light of

00:51:52.620 their actions the

00:51:53.300 acting attorney general

00:51:54.220 does not trust these

00:51:55.140 officials to assist in

00:51:56.620 faithfully implementing

00:51:57.520 the president's agenda

00:51:58.460 this action is

00:51:59.840 consistent with the

00:52:00.540 mission of ending the

00:52:01.380 weaponization of

00:52:02.180 government which is

00:52:03.340 you know note for

00:52:03.880 note perfect what they

00:52:04.720 should have said i think

00:52:05.520 yeah well pam bondi is 0.79

00:52:06.620 very competent because

00:52:07.340 she ran the america

00:52:08.000 first policy institute

00:52:09.040 throughout the entire

00:52:10.060 campaign so she was 1.00

00:52:11.180 involved in setting up

00:52:13.460 some of the executive

00:52:14.240 orders that trump has

00:52:14.940 been signing so she's

00:52:16.140 a loyalist she knows

00:52:17.140 how government works

00:52:17.960 and clearly she's

00:52:18.660 getting on with it

00:52:19.140 and then the final

00:52:20.300 one i wanted to

00:52:20.840 point out was that

00:52:22.280 he's also ousted a

00:52:25.300 tsa administrator i'm

00:52:26.980 glad my experience with

00:52:28.060 american airports just

00:52:29.000 means that i i'm so

00:52:30.460 frustrated i'm i hope

00:52:31.880 he loses his pension

00:52:32.580 so the tsa administrator

00:52:34.900 david pikowski i think

00:52:36.960 was first nominated in

00:52:38.200 2017 and kept on by

00:52:40.100 biden so it's another

00:52:41.000 one of trump's original

00:52:42.340 hires and then we don't

00:52:44.500 know why he was removed

00:52:46.080 um but some of the

00:52:48.040 things he did while in

00:52:49.280 office uh he was

00:52:50.800 planning to roll out a

00:52:51.500 program called a one-stop

00:52:52.820 security that would

00:52:53.780 remove additional

00:52:54.440 security screenings for

00:52:55.460 travelers flying from

00:52:56.820 certain destinations back

00:52:58.340 to the u.s right so

00:53:00.020 this is one of the guys

00:53:01.380 who has been lobbied by

00:53:03.080 various community

00:53:04.060 interest groups to say

00:53:05.440 tsa airport security

00:53:06.880 checks are racist if

00:53:07.860 you're coming from the 1.00

00:53:08.420 muslim world therefore 0.92

00:53:09.160 remove them that's sort

00:53:10.360 of what i gathered from

00:53:11.280 that yes and then the

00:53:13.000 agency had also started

00:53:14.160 expanding its use of

00:53:15.180 facial recognition

00:53:16.000 technology at airports

00:53:17.260 um which obviously is a

00:53:20.860 bit dystopian although

00:53:22.060 you can understand why

00:53:23.740 it might be used i mean

00:53:24.760 we've got that over here

00:53:25.840 and who did it just pick

00:53:26.760 up the other day

00:53:27.520 alan yeah yeah not

00:53:30.820 axel rudikabana no not

00:53:32.400 axel rudikabana not a

00:53:33.420 man who literally looked

00:53:34.760 like a psychopath no no

00:53:36.860 tiny hobbit callum who 0.77

00:53:39.180 couldn't even hurt a fly if

00:53:40.500 he tried i've seen it

00:53:41.800 unless it was in a cake

00:53:42.740 well no i hope you if

00:53:45.460 you're watching this

00:53:45.960 callum i hope you're

00:53:46.560 doing yeah we hope that

00:53:47.260 you're all right sorry to

00:53:48.140 hear about what happened

00:53:48.840 to you mate um so what

00:53:51.780 else do we think is going

00:53:53.080 to happen and also what

00:53:54.060 would you like to see

00:53:54.920 happen obviously i'm going

00:53:56.360 to say end the fed um as

00:53:58.100 a matter of course so i am

00:54:00.700 hoping that he will reject

00:54:02.020 peter mandelson as the u.s

00:54:03.780 ambassador because the

00:54:04.800 only reason they're putting

00:54:05.400 mandelson as an ambassador

00:54:06.500 is because he wants

00:54:07.280 diplomatic immunity

00:54:08.120 because they're about to

00:54:09.180 release some files that

00:54:11.620 might be particularly

00:54:12.860 damaging for his

00:54:13.600 reputation i've heard

00:54:14.000 some rumors about what

00:54:15.400 he's been up to i can't

00:54:16.860 say things i cannot say

00:54:18.840 things uh also probably

00:54:20.680 not sitting very

00:54:21.460 comfortably in his chair

00:54:22.760 at the minute let's just

00:54:23.500 say that no no unless

00:54:25.680 it's a very comfy chair on

00:54:26.840 a on a certain passenger

00:54:27.740 jet anyway point being um

00:54:29.500 i also hope that the

00:54:30.480 trump administration i've

00:54:31.280 heard rumblings from

00:54:33.060 friends out in dc are going

00:54:34.800 to use their position as

00:54:36.900 dominant hegemon for the

00:54:38.480 time being of the west

00:54:39.860 to ensure that we in

00:54:42.260 woke north korea have an

00:54:43.100 easier ride of it because

00:54:44.660 please do thank you they

00:54:46.020 are looking at england like

00:54:47.280 the motherland has been

00:54:47.960 lost and so they are

00:54:49.300 drawing equivalences between

00:54:51.060 persecution of

00:54:52.380 dissidents in iran like

00:54:53.400 the eastern roman empire

00:54:54.960 coming back to reconquer

00:54:56.160 rome yeah basically yeah

00:54:58.380 it's going to be quite good

00:54:59.340 so they're looking at

00:55:00.640 people being locked up

00:55:01.300 for social media posts and

00:55:02.280 going dear god you're a

00:55:03.520 soviet satellite state what

00:55:04.900 can we do to break into

00:55:06.360 that i mean i remember jd

00:55:07.200 vant saying we're going to

00:55:08.100 use nato membership to

00:55:09.000 ensure that the european

00:55:10.140 union doesn't crack down on

00:55:11.080 free speech on twitter

00:55:11.780 highly possible they do

00:55:13.920 something similar for the

00:55:15.280 uk these do what do you

00:55:17.180 think harry what would you

00:55:18.060 like to see um

00:55:19.620 uh hmm trying to think what

00:55:22.880 will get me not put on a

00:55:24.400 terrorist watch list you

00:55:26.140 can say removing certain

00:55:27.420 government departments that's

00:55:28.420 fine ending the fed gold

00:55:30.160 standard uh yeah well

00:55:31.120 yeah ending the fed would

00:55:31.920 be good removal of about

00:55:32.900 95 percent of all

00:55:34.760 government not just in

00:55:36.860 america but in britain and

00:55:38.560 the rest of the west as

00:55:39.500 well uh i don't know if

00:55:41.500 trump has the power to do

00:55:42.540 that quite yet uh but that

00:55:44.460 would be more expansive than

00:55:45.180 me that would be nice

00:55:46.300 export doge to the uk oh

00:55:48.220 burning the muslim 1.00

00:55:48.800 brotherhood as well that's

00:55:49.600 also something that's

00:55:50.300 going to really like to

00:55:51.060 see that of us yeah that

00:55:52.980 would do the world a favor

00:55:54.040 so yes i have good news and

00:55:56.260 i imagine there's lots more

00:55:57.420 to come as the trump

00:55:58.760 administration marches on

00:56:00.120 and it's all looking good

00:56:16.420 merely violated several

00:56:17.480 statutes of it and can be

00:56:18.900 charged for them that that's

00:56:20.200 outside of my knowledge but

00:57:05.860 bald eagle 1787

00:57:07.280 it's a gig those few

00:57:09.180 times the u.s gave aid to

00:57:10.260 the ussr was when they

00:57:11.100 were suffering a famine

00:57:11.880 due to crop failure due to

00:57:13.160 weird weather those years

00:57:14.020 the u.s did it to avoid

00:57:14.880 the ussr launching an

00:57:16.140 invasion for food they 0.66

00:57:17.920 also sent a lot more

00:57:19.180 support to the ussr

00:57:20.580 following that even in

00:57:21.580 the 20s when they had a

00:57:22.940 lot of republican

00:57:23.600 government uh presidents

00:57:24.980 uh going through they

00:57:26.660 were sending over

00:57:27.700 resources they basically

00:57:29.220 helped build up the ussr

00:57:30.760 into an industrial

00:57:31.560 manufacturing superpower

00:57:32.820 and coolidge um i think

00:57:35.580 it would have been under

00:57:36.340 under coolidge it might

00:57:37.960 have been well hoover was

00:57:39.160 also right before fdr they

00:57:40.920 sent over american

00:57:42.460 specialists to basically

00:57:43.720 show the ussr how

00:57:44.960 everything worked and

00:57:46.920 then under fdr the new

00:57:49.560 deal actually opened up

00:57:50.720 loads of positions for

00:57:51.860 soviet spies big 0.93

00:57:53.780 surprise the guy who

00:57:55.080 was assisted by soviet

00:57:57.060 spies opened up the

00:57:58.800 government for

00:57:59.300 infiltration by soviet

00:58:00.440 spies a lot of that

00:58:02.020 information can be found

00:58:02.940 in sean mcmeekin's

00:58:03.960 stalin's war so i can't

00:58:05.500 remember all of the

00:58:06.240 essential details off the

00:58:08.040 top of my head but

00:58:08.740 that's the uh broad and

00:58:10.120 short of it and in the

00:58:11.440 cold war period again

00:58:13.440 can't remember the exact

00:58:14.600 details but i know they

00:58:15.520 were still basically

00:58:16.360 sending over international

00:58:17.560 support to the ussr and

00:58:19.200 i'm pretty certain a lot

00:58:20.080 of that information is in

00:58:21.260 adam curtis's bbc

00:58:22.680 documentaries on us ussr

00:58:25.520 relations i've seen

00:58:27.220 those yeah very good

00:58:28.740 very very very good

00:58:30.020 stuff so sadly yeah the

00:58:31.640 us government was

00:58:32.620 basically aiding their

00:58:33.560 major enemies for a

00:58:34.900 very long time which

00:58:35.980 still happens today up

00:58:38.060 until recently uh sigil

00:58:40.080 stone 17 i'd love to

00:58:41.400 watch a video of trump

00:58:42.180 walking through a

00:58:42.860 federal office building

00:58:43.640 yelling afuera while

00:58:44.900 throwing pink slips at

00:58:45.740 people or a t-shirt

00:58:46.780 cannon loaded with pink

00:58:47.540 slips and hunting people

00:58:48.240 down i have a suggestion

00:58:49.380 executive order um no

00:58:51.780 flags other than the

00:58:53.180 american can be flown

00:58:54.240 inside federal buildings

00:58:55.840 because aoc has a 0.71

00:58:57.320 progress pride flag

00:58:58.440 outside of her

00:58:59.680 congressional office i've

00:59:00.600 been there it's awful

00:59:01.380 it's smothered in post-it

00:59:02.640 notes as well from

00:59:03.740 loving adoring social

00:59:04.660 supporters because she's 1.00

00:59:05.480 a demented ethno

00:59:06.280 narcissist i think trump

00:59:07.860 should just tear that 0.95

00:59:08.560 down immediately i've got

00:59:10.240 an even better suggestion

00:59:11.220 if you want to make it

00:59:11.860 television you can

00:59:12.560 relate it back to what

00:59:13.380 donald trump used to do

00:59:14.340 apprentice reboot

00:59:15.580 where it's just him

00:59:16.220 going around to every

00:59:17.200 department telling them

00:59:18.280 you're fired very good

00:59:20.120 i'd watch that should

00:59:21.360 crack on with yours and

00:59:22.060 leave the other two

00:59:22.640 till after uh yeah

00:59:23.580 sure so this subject

00:59:25.240 that i'm going to talk

00:59:25.840 about today i have been

00:59:27.040 told that dan covered

00:59:28.660 slightly yesterday but

00:59:30.520 frankly i didn't watch

00:59:32.100 yesterday's podcast and

00:59:33.360 i'm going to do it better

00:59:34.420 anyway because i was

00:59:35.220 also on it so we don't

00:59:36.640 need to necessarily go

00:59:37.600 over familiar territory if

00:59:38.720 we have yeah dan was

00:59:40.140 talking about how it's a

00:59:41.360 sign that everybody is

00:59:42.460 left wing and the

00:59:43.620 overton window yada yada

00:59:44.920 yada no i'm going to say

00:59:46.740 it differently i'm going to

00:59:47.680 say it correctly zoomers

00:59:49.180 yearn for the return of

00:59:50.720 the king this was the

00:59:52.160 entire premise of my

00:59:53.220 trigonometry interview and

00:59:54.400 i feel so vindicated

00:59:55.320 yes and that's actually

00:59:57.020 can i have a mouse please

00:59:57.980 no yeah that was

01:00:00.840 unnecessary wasn't it

01:00:02.260 can you believe this

01:00:03.380 folks please sir can i

01:00:04.440 have a mouse please just

01:00:05.780 one small mouse

01:00:07.000 satisfied with your

01:00:08.280 gruel my family they're

01:00:10.360 starving we'll make it

01:00:11.400 last weeks um no people

01:00:13.620 are very very interested in

01:00:15.040 learning about gen z not

01:00:16.760 gen z i'm english gen z and

01:00:19.760 uh finding out the

01:00:20.760 pathologies and different

01:00:21.900 opinions and habits of the

01:00:23.980 zoomers which leads to all 1.00

01:00:25.040 sorts of constant surveys

01:00:26.740 going on asking them about

01:00:27.820 their behaviors including

01:00:28.860 uh this one which got

01:00:30.300 published in the guardian the

01:00:32.000 other day talking about how

01:00:33.280 zoomers are afraid to go on 1.00

01:00:35.080 phone calls they prefer to

01:00:36.340 message that's weird to me

01:00:38.140 i'm not afraid it's just

01:00:39.100 annoying like why are you

01:00:39.880 calling me this is a i'm

01:00:41.940 busy this is exactly why

01:00:43.260 can't i just call if

01:00:44.660 you're if you're i've got

01:00:45.700 a rule that if if it's

01:00:47.040 business you can call if

01:00:48.940 it's you know just for a

01:00:50.100 chit chat you message and

01:00:51.340 organize it in advance yes

01:00:52.720 yeah if it's if it's urgent

01:00:54.680 call me if it's just

01:00:55.860 something you could have

01:00:56.960 said over a text i'm very

01:00:58.360 responsible i suppose i

01:00:59.760 suppose that's fair i think

01:01:01.260 the annoying thing for me is

01:01:02.440 all of my friends are

01:01:03.260 terrible at responding to

01:01:04.260 messages so it's easier for

01:01:05.740 me to just call them and get

01:01:06.820 the response right then and

01:01:07.840 there either way a lot of

01:01:09.760 these surveys are basically

01:01:10.780 to say aren't zoomers 0.99

01:01:12.660 stupid aren't they silly

01:01:14.220 they're afraid of this

01:01:15.380 they're afraid of that

01:01:16.000 they're so anxious and

01:01:17.400 depressed they don't drink

01:01:18.740 they don't have fun

01:01:19.460 anymore blah de blah de

01:01:20.660 blah yeah well guess what

01:01:22.720 we hate democracy

01:01:24.020 this is inconsistent so i

01:01:26.600 covered a while ago the

01:01:27.460 onward polling from the

01:01:28.460 kids aren't all right and

01:01:29.800 it was i think 61% would

01:01:31.840 support i've got that in

01:01:32.660 here actually yeah there we

01:01:34.200 go yeah i think we'll get

01:01:36.280 to those figures in just a

01:01:37.360 moment but this is the

01:01:38.520 latest one that came out

01:01:40.480 which has been causing

01:01:41.440 quite a scare among the

01:01:43.680 older generations and i

01:01:44.720 think dan mentioned to me

01:01:45.680 earlier that if you look

01:01:46.440 into the data it's every

01:01:48.100 the majority of people

01:01:49.680 particularly men below the

01:01:51.500 age of 44 so it's not

01:01:53.020 just zoomers but zoomers 0.98

01:01:54.220 seem to be the most in

01:01:55.720 favor of this

01:01:56.340 millennials and some

01:01:57.580 and some gen x's

01:01:59.280 it's hurting to use these

01:02:00.340 terms by the way

01:02:00.940 i know that you're not a

01:02:02.400 fan of the terms but we're

01:02:03.660 using them for the

01:02:04.680 particular age categories

01:02:06.000 um so they're not

01:02:08.380 particularly happy in the

01:02:09.940 uk specifically with how

01:02:11.920 democracy is going and

01:02:13.500 more than half of them

01:02:14.420 52 percent of gen z think

01:02:16.680 that the uk would be in a

01:02:17.740 better place if a if it

01:02:19.500 had a strong leader who

01:02:21.000 does not have to bother

01:02:21.960 with parliament and

01:02:22.940 elections and if they were

01:02:24.280 in charge now the news

01:02:26.040 reports on this have all

01:02:27.600 been classifying and

01:02:28.700 characterizing it as a

01:02:29.700 dictatorship so that

01:02:30.880 you've got that nasty

01:02:31.960 smear attached to it

01:02:33.300 because people hear

01:02:33.840 dictatorship they think

01:02:34.900 hitler they think

01:02:35.960 holocaust they think we

01:02:37.120 can't have that uh what

01:02:38.680 i mean the definition

01:02:40.540 given here strong leader

01:02:41.920 who does not have to

01:02:42.640 bother with parliament

01:02:43.300 and elections could

01:02:44.420 actually take a number of

01:02:45.720 different forms not

01:02:47.120 specifically dictator but

01:02:49.040 it could also just mean a

01:02:50.600 king well also that thing

01:02:52.260 that the english were

01:02:53.180 governed by for

01:02:54.880 centuries so it said

01:02:56.360 33 percent were amenable

01:02:57.680 for the army taking

01:02:58.440 charge and 47 percent

01:02:59.700 said that we need a

01:03:00.540 revolutionary

01:03:01.020 reconstitution of the way

01:03:02.480 we do life in this

01:03:03.340 country

01:03:03.560 they didn't break down

01:03:05.160 the ethnic demographics

01:03:07.360 only the age demographics

01:03:08.540 so it could be they were

01:03:09.760 envisioning a king

01:03:10.440 as far as i can tell

01:03:11.020 they also didn't break

01:03:12.500 down the actual

01:03:13.300 political divide on

01:03:14.880 this so when they say

01:03:16.120 revolution you could

01:03:17.600 say oh maybe they want

01:03:18.540 some kind of like

01:03:19.220 traditional rightist

01:03:20.340 revolution or maybe

01:03:21.420 they want a leftist

01:03:22.560 revolution so there's a

01:03:23.680 lot of gray area

01:03:24.700 in tefada and a

01:03:25.780 caliphate 0.84

01:03:26.660 or that because

01:03:27.720 gen z are remarkably 1.00

01:03:29.280 diverse

01:03:29.860 don't even necessarily

01:03:31.400 need to you know

01:03:33.180 be in those fringes

01:03:34.780 either because of

01:03:35.580 course being quite

01:03:37.040 libertarian inclined

01:03:38.020 i think that the only

01:03:39.500 way you clean up

01:03:40.480 british politics is

01:03:42.200 you have someone who

01:03:43.240 does what trump is

01:03:44.160 doing and just clears

01:03:46.220 out a lot of the

01:03:46.860 people and to do that

01:03:48.360 there's going to be a

01:03:48.940 lot of people in the

01:03:49.540 way and you could

01:03:50.660 argue that you know

01:03:51.900 sidestepping parliament

01:03:52.800 doing that and then

01:03:53.880 going back to ruling in

01:03:55.420 a more modest way would

01:03:58.340 be the perfect way to

01:03:59.240 do it right so you can

01:04:00.380 you can even argue for

01:04:01.740 this sort of thing from

01:04:02.680 a more liberty focused

01:04:04.740 well i would argue the

01:04:05.900 smaller the state the

01:04:06.880 greater the liberty

01:04:07.600 yeah but to get to get

01:04:10.000 to that point

01:04:10.660 yes you need to do a

01:04:12.260 lot of politicking and

01:04:13.660 clearing out you need

01:04:14.620 lots of power

01:04:15.400 and donald donald trump is

01:04:16.620 showing us right now that

01:04:17.620 it is possible even in

01:04:19.300 the modern era so to give

01:04:21.000 my own perspective on

01:04:22.460 uh what i think uh is

01:04:24.780 going on here not just

01:04:26.080 obviously not covering all

01:04:27.820 of them because as you

01:04:28.460 mentioned the lack of an

01:04:29.720 ethnic breakdown or a

01:04:30.880 political breakdown in

01:04:31.760 this means that it could

01:04:32.580 be going a number of

01:04:33.420 different ways but i think

01:04:34.880 in the most common sense

01:04:37.160 reading of this it's that

01:04:38.720 people are sick and tired

01:04:40.920 of governments that do

01:04:42.220 not work this government

01:04:44.540 that we have particularly

01:04:45.560 in the uk is hideously

01:04:47.820 incompetent and refuses to

01:04:49.360 take accountability or

01:04:51.080 responsibility for anything

01:04:53.080 that it does it always

01:04:54.440 wants the credit if

01:04:55.440 something has gone right

01:04:56.640 you know if they managed

01:04:57.760 to deport 10,000 people

01:05:00.480 under the rules that

01:05:01.940 were established by

01:05:02.620 swella braverman last

01:05:03.660 year before they even

01:05:04.460 got in the labor

01:05:05.560 government for instance is

01:05:06.740 more than happy to say

01:05:07.600 see we're doing what you

01:05:09.080 want but the second that

01:05:10.540 something goes wrong the

01:05:11.940 ruda cabana is probably

01:05:13.760 the most recent incident

01:05:15.280 of instance of that they

01:05:16.880 want to point to hatred

01:05:18.080 of the far right and start

01:05:19.140 clamping down on your

01:05:20.040 liberties people are sick

01:05:21.480 of this kind of anonymous

01:05:23.080 caretaker style government

01:05:25.680 where everything is the

01:05:26.920 responsibility of this

01:05:28.040 department or this

01:05:28.820 department but actually

01:05:29.700 it's not their

01:05:30.200 responsibility because

01:05:31.000 they're saying it's these

01:05:31.800 guys and the whole thing

01:05:33.020 is opaque and unknowable

01:05:34.620 and to a certain degree

01:05:35.980 and this is quite a hoppian

01:05:37.660 uh criticism right here

01:05:39.380 i think that it causes a

01:05:40.800 certain degree of

01:05:42.200 psychological uncertainty

01:05:44.080 in people's day to day

01:05:45.680 knowing that they are being

01:05:47.140 governed by some

01:05:48.340 gigantic unknowable

01:05:49.960 leviathan that exists in

01:05:52.020 the shadows until all of a

01:05:53.540 sudden you're being

01:05:54.560 arrested for posting a

01:05:55.720 meme online

01:05:56.680 it's much more certain

01:05:58.280 if you have a direct

01:05:59.860 link to responsibility of

01:06:01.800 the person in charge if

01:06:02.680 there's a centralized

01:06:04.000 authority figure well if

01:06:05.780 something goes wrong you

01:06:06.680 can blame them if

01:06:07.460 something goes right you

01:06:08.320 can thank them if

01:06:09.320 something needs to be

01:06:10.200 petitioned and changed you

01:06:11.500 can go to that leader and

01:06:12.840 petition them there's a

01:06:14.020 certainty and a

01:06:14.720 simplicity to it which has

01:06:16.400 just been completely swept

01:06:18.420 away by what we now

01:06:19.760 consider to be liberal

01:06:21.160 democratic governance which

01:06:22.620 is really an oligarchy

01:06:24.440 supported by an enormous

01:06:25.740 civil service there are

01:06:27.040 two things to say here the

01:06:28.140 first of which is a very

01:06:28.940 obvious point of in the

01:06:30.000 past people used to

01:06:30.800 petition the king and it's

01:06:32.100 pretty obvious who you go

01:06:33.080 to right and the second

01:06:34.360 thing is uh to to build on

01:06:36.480 that hoppian psychology if

01:06:37.980 you will uncertainty makes

01:06:40.060 people yield to strong

01:06:42.020 leadership and decisive action

01:06:43.740 and if you have if you are

01:06:46.120 the person who has the

01:06:47.140 behemoth bureaucracy the large

01:06:49.800 state and not only are they

01:06:52.220 uncertain about the nature of

01:06:53.580 the problems but also how the

01:06:54.840 government works that's

01:06:55.740 almost like doubling up the

01:06:57.280 degree of uncertainty because

01:06:58.760 people then become unaware of

01:07:01.420 who they should even say this

01:07:02.700 to and so the the instability and

01:07:05.940 uncertainty sort of maximizes the

01:07:08.100 willingness someone has towards

01:07:10.600 tolerating tyranny basically

01:07:13.240 well i'd like to add to that as

01:07:14.500 well what you've said there is

01:07:15.720 democracy is now synonymous with

01:07:17.340 deep state and so we have

01:07:19.040 outsourced all decision making

01:07:20.180 capacity to quangos and

01:07:21.480 committees ever since 1997 and

01:07:23.100 tony blair turned the state into

01:07:25.340 a kind of self-driving car towards

01:07:27.160 progress and if this state is

01:07:30.720 making competent taxpaying law

01:07:32.960 abiding straight white men public

01:07:34.360 enemy number one why would said

01:07:36.140 cohort presuming there's a large

01:07:37.660 amount of reaction resumers in

01:07:38.960 this want to preserve that social

01:07:40.700 order why wouldn't they just want

01:07:41.620 to upend it and they can see a

01:07:43.160 route to upending it because one

01:07:44.420 of the most pivotal political

01:07:46.080 moments of our lifetime was

01:07:47.080 covid so for two years we were

01:07:48.780 put under house arrest and the

01:07:50.080 government dissolved any division

01:07:52.200 between public and private spheres

01:07:53.520 and separation of powers with a

01:07:55.180 press conference given by boris

01:07:56.780 johnson in one night so the zoomers 0.96

01:07:58.580 have turned around and gone right

01:07:59.320 oh hang on a minute the state can at

01:08:02.340 all times intervene in and control

01:08:05.160 every aspect of life so there's no

01:08:07.040 excuse for incompetence or inaction

01:08:08.520 anymore instead why don't we just

01:08:10.580 take that power and use it rather

01:08:12.060 than against my interests for my

01:08:13.680 interests i'm not saying i support

01:08:15.140 that but i am saying it's the

01:08:16.280 logical outgrowth of the standard

01:08:17.240 that they've set so why are they

01:08:18.420 shocked especially when all of the

01:08:19.560 decisions that the government is

01:08:20.640 making is constantly making people's

01:08:22.140 lives worse making you poorer

01:08:23.700 changing the breakdown of your

01:08:25.780 neighborhood against your will

01:08:27.680 without informing you and then if

01:08:29.220 you have something to complain

01:08:30.140 about either it's not their fault

01:08:31.640 not their responsibility or again

01:08:33.620 you maybe end up on a watch list

01:08:36.000 maybe you end up getting caught

01:08:37.740 getting stopped when you go through

01:08:39.540 the airport and interrogated over

01:08:41.460 your opinions i think that in this

01:08:44.220 scenario the sort of lesson from the

01:08:46.000 lord of the rings is actually turned

01:08:48.260 on its head that you've got to take

01:08:49.760 the boromir approach of you've got to

01:08:51.280 use the ring to destroy the evil

01:08:53.400 rather than you know ignoring it and

01:08:56.800 resisting its power because that

01:08:58.180 simply won't work in this well i think

01:09:00.600 that it would be you would need to use

01:09:02.180 the ring to destroy the ring in yeah

01:09:04.480 exactly essentially exactly but i do

01:09:07.320 think in this there is likely in all

01:09:09.460 likelihood a cohort of reactionary zoomers 1.00

01:09:12.960 if that's what you're trying to

01:09:14.340 suggest it because first of all the

01:09:16.420 report was gen zed trends trust

01:09:18.580 trends truth and trust uh part of a

01:09:21.020 channel four report that was

01:09:22.960 commissioned and it says in this next

01:09:24.460 article that i have here uh it's

01:09:26.380 commissioned by channel four and done

01:09:28.260 by craft they got 3 000 people 2 000

01:09:31.380 gen zeds and uh people aged 28 to 65

01:09:35.320 making up the remaining 1000 and

01:09:38.280 because they asked not just about

01:09:39.480 attitudes towards democracy and towards

01:09:42.600 politics in general the need for

01:09:44.360 revolution etc they also talked about

01:09:47.820 gender equality and they found that

01:09:49.820 45 percent of male respondents aged 13

01:09:52.700 to 27 agreed that we have gone so far in

01:09:55.820 promoting women's equality that we are

01:09:57.340 discriminating against men and because

01:09:59.120 the law says so yeah exactly you can

01:10:01.800 point to the criminal statutes that

01:10:03.720 point now a further 44 percent agreed

01:10:06.360 that when it comes to giving women 0.94

01:10:07.660 equal rights things have gone far

01:10:10.080 enough so this survey has found that

01:10:12.540 the british people tired of women 1.00

01:10:14.460 the same the same thank you bernie

01:10:16.960 saunders the same polling was found

01:10:19.120 precipitating large zoomer male support

01:10:22.000 for donald trump so if let's say reform

01:10:25.740 uk decides to just copy the trump

01:10:27.660 phenomena and bring it over you've got

01:10:29.120 a ready-made underrepresented voter base

01:10:32.740 that are only going to grow as

01:10:34.400 demographics increase over time so just

01:10:36.240 do that yeah and to further support the

01:10:38.520 idea that a lot of these people who are

01:10:40.400 answering in this way are probably

01:10:41.920 shifting towards the right in that age

01:10:44.160 cohort they don't go on to point out

01:10:46.480 and this is fear-mongering this is

01:10:48.420 fear-mongering oh good independent

01:10:50.260 saying that controversial influences

01:10:52.820 andrew tate who i'm not a fan of i'm

01:10:55.900 not a fan of i do understand to a young

01:10:58.880 man who sees society telling him

01:11:00.900 everything that he does is wrong and

01:11:02.480 he should feel ashamed of himself i do

01:11:04.220 see why andrew tate would appeal to him

01:11:06.040 because he's at least trying to sell

01:11:08.040 them a message of self-empowerment

01:11:10.280 right the ethnic breakdown of andrew

01:11:11.880 tate supporters by the way i don't know

01:11:14.020 it's very inconvenient for the guardian

01:11:15.720 and the independent yeah they don't buy

01:11:17.260 sun cream but controversial influences

01:11:19.780 andrew tate and jordan peterson were

01:11:22.100 among those to command similar trust by

01:11:24.420 42 percent of men again whether or not

01:11:27.340 you agree with andrew tate or jordan

01:11:29.260 peterson uh i'm a much bigger fan of

01:11:31.600 peterson and tate you can see why they're

01:11:33.780 trying to give people a positive

01:11:35.620 message they're trying to give young

01:11:38.300 men a positive image of themselves so

01:11:41.020 you can see why that might appeal to

01:11:42.480 them another 25 year old male

01:11:44.800 participant from penryn cornwall said he

01:11:47.300 felt targeted because he was a regular

01:11:49.340 straight white man who has had a

01:11:50.980 cultural advantage in the past is

01:11:53.180 swinging back the other way to a point

01:11:54.780 where we potentially risk discriminating

01:11:56.480 against us in favor of the people in

01:11:58.780 minority groups an 18 year old from hitch

01:12:01.180 in hertfordshire said i believe the man

01:12:03.780 has to be the provider and he has to

01:12:05.920 provide for the family i've seen my life

01:12:08.180 around me a lot of people are just not

01:12:09.500 into that anymore i personally think that

01:12:11.400 a man has to provide regardless same 0.98

01:12:13.540 with women nowadays i suppose i believe

01:12:15.640 that that's a woman's choice they 1.00

01:12:17.480 shouldn't be discouraged from being a

01:12:18.740 housewife so these two perspectives to

01:12:20.480 me common sense that second one is

01:12:22.860 basically what i believe yeah but i

01:12:25.760 assume that the independent is trying to

01:12:28.360 highlight them so that you know that

01:12:29.740 it's evil far writers answering that

01:12:32.360 they want a dictatorship what's because

01:12:34.380 they want they want they want the

01:12:36.020 andrew tate hitler dictatorship to run

01:12:38.760 the uk to force a wife on them this is 0.83

01:12:42.040 just i assume is what the independent

01:12:43.480 is just a promo article so what's this

01:12:45.800 political particle brov brov yeah so

01:12:48.440 what's what exactly is evil about

01:12:50.260 wanting to provide resources for other

01:12:53.080 people and giving people the option to

01:12:55.580 stay at home and look after their

01:12:57.440 families if they want to you're

01:12:59.440 denying them the opportunity to be

01:13:01.540 miserable in office somewhere great

01:13:05.080 that's it that's that i wonder why the

01:13:06.900 harris campaign didn't win over large

01:13:08.360 swathes of young women yeah and the 0.99

01:13:10.840 the guardian article here has some more

01:13:13.480 information talking about the use of

01:13:15.940 social media from these people in

01:13:17.840 these age groups saying that they get

01:13:19.680 most of their information from social

01:13:21.460 media posts and influencers and the they

01:13:26.380 don't trust the bbc as much and also

01:13:30.020 there's a counterintuitive one here

01:13:31.980 saying gen z actually trust politicians 1.00

01:13:34.440 more than other generations 27 percent of

01:13:37.680 them trust versus just nine percent for

01:13:41.060 over 28 year olds and i'm struggling to

01:13:44.060 account for why that would be that they

01:13:46.100 would want a centralized authority figure

01:13:48.820 while also trusting politicians perhaps

01:13:50.880 it's that they i don't know how they

01:13:52.380 structured the question it might be that

01:13:55.000 they trust particular politicians more

01:13:57.720 and distrust the rest of them so it might

01:13:59.720 just be that maybe gen z have said oh

01:14:01.740 well that rupert lowe guy seems like a

01:14:03.380 trustworthy bloke and they've used that

01:14:05.380 to say well they trust politicians more

01:14:07.520 but that's interesting so of course this as

01:14:11.480 you mentioned is not a new thing in fact

01:14:14.960 onward themselves had this graph going up

01:14:19.120 to 2022 this is the one that i got dan to

01:14:22.000 pull up uh yesterday by the way ah yes

01:14:24.680 well references frequently it's it's

01:14:26.920 interesting to me that it's around 2019

01:14:29.340 that it suddenly spikes up for everybody

01:14:32.320 and then the older generations all start to

01:14:34.900 simmer down in their need for the brexit

01:14:38.160 negotiations wasn't it yes it was but the

01:14:41.340 younger generations have said no no this

01:14:44.340 i still don't like this but the interesting

01:14:46.740 thing most interesting thing for me is

01:14:49.040 there was this report attached to it that

01:14:51.280 tried to explain this because oh my god

01:14:53.940 the kids want a dictatorship how do we

01:14:55.720 solve this well we need to go to the

01:14:57.380 root of the problem what are the problems

01:14:59.420 causing this well let's see what onward

01:15:01.600 diagnosed this as in their report and

01:15:04.320 i'll just take you on a whistle stop

01:15:05.680 through the four drivers of detachment from

01:15:09.240 democracy because democracy you know you

01:15:12.320 vote in for mps who barely have any power

01:15:15.100 and mostly just submit to ngo reports

01:15:17.420 anyway because they don't even read them

01:15:18.820 and they just need to get things done and

01:15:20.080 bills passed in parliament so who cares

01:15:21.900 that's accountable governance why don't

01:15:24.060 you like that why don't you like every

01:15:25.780 aspect of your life being made worse

01:15:27.400 constantly well it's because you spend

01:15:29.180 too much time online bro you've got

01:15:31.020 narrow social networks you're

01:15:32.740 radicalizing yourself over protective

01:15:35.260 parenting

01:15:35.860 if your dad was a dictator at home then

01:15:39.860 you'd know how bad it was why don't you

01:15:41.280 just hate your dad more well despite despite

01:15:43.200 then you would know why dictatorship is

01:15:45.140 bad despite growing numbers of children

01:15:47.060 not growing up with their father in

01:15:48.140 their home

01:15:48.420 this is an idiotic yes

01:15:50.520 uh the treadmill of modern work

01:15:53.620 basically you are extorted if you're a

01:15:56.320 hard-working law-abiding tax-paying young

01:15:58.040 man

01:15:58.300 to battery farm foreign criminals at your 0.84

01:16:00.120 expense

01:16:00.560 yes so that one maybe maybe i can see

01:16:03.400 that as related to all the other things

01:16:05.200 that we know are the actual reasons why

01:16:07.420 people don't like the system right now

01:16:08.780 and again you're spending way too much

01:16:10.880 time online bro just touch grass take a

01:16:14.460 nap and get into some arguments with

01:16:16.600 your parents and then you'll understand

01:16:18.520 why democracy matters so much because

01:16:20.780 of course the the over 75s least uh in

01:16:24.500 favor of this that they're known for

01:16:26.420 going outside all the time being very

01:16:28.760 active

01:16:29.400 not just sitting indoors watching the bbc

01:16:31.880 and having them told that liberal

01:16:33.420 democracy is the absolute best thing

01:16:34.580 for you

01:16:34.780 yeah the key demographic for watching

01:16:37.000 the news and paying attention to the

01:16:38.580 mainstream media as if it actually

01:16:40.080 matters

01:16:40.460 it should be noted by the way that

01:16:41.660 onward was formerly run by sebastian

01:16:43.300 pain who is michael goves mini me

01:16:45.400 what a surprise

01:16:47.180 both in appearance and politics

01:16:48.300 yes

01:16:48.560 but this this report is over two years

01:16:50.560 old now and i find it funny that this

01:16:52.700 overprotective parenting reason is being

01:16:55.920 rolled out again by inews for this

01:16:59.620 latest report saying that gentle

01:17:01.660 parenting is now affecting democracy i

01:17:04.240 assume by gentle parenting they mean

01:17:06.080 the same as overprotective parenting

01:17:08.200 just being too nice to your kids and

01:17:09.980 keeping them out of trouble

01:17:10.880 well i kind of agree with these people

01:17:13.740 and i didn't have overprotective parents

01:17:15.800 at all

01:17:16.260 me neither i don't see the overlap

01:17:18.740 between

01:17:19.320 my parents are too nice to me best vote

01:17:21.980 hitler

01:17:22.320 okay so no what what i do to steal man

01:17:25.160 to steal man the case for this

01:17:26.780 they're not described that i don't think

01:17:29.180 they're saying you automatically go and

01:17:30.320 have to hit your kids which i'm against 0.97

01:17:31.520 this is something mary harrington's

01:17:32.900 talked about before the safetyism culture

01:17:34.980 in cradle to higher education daycare

01:17:39.260 because we're so institutionalized

01:17:40.600 where if you fall off a wall rather than

01:17:42.720 the attitude that you know you're

01:17:43.800 gonna have your daughter which is like 0.98

01:17:44.840 oh you're fine it's just a gray shake

01:17:46.160 it off

01:17:46.440 immediately you have to write out form

01:17:47.960 and call the parents

01:17:48.860 i already have to fight the missus over 1.00

01:17:50.320 things like that if she like bumps her

01:17:51.780 head on something she immediately runs

01:17:53.820 to present i'm like ah she's fine

01:17:56.100 it's institutionalized devouring

01:17:58.000 and she'll just get straight back up 1.00

01:17:59.880 and be on a merry way

01:18:00.900 well that that culture

01:18:01.860 that's been interned in very

01:18:04.280 feminized education environments

01:18:05.640 has set up

01:18:06.840 a cohort of gen z not the same one 0.98

01:18:09.540 we're talking about

01:18:10.140 to think that everything should be a

01:18:11.460 safe space

01:18:11.920 and so that everything should be

01:18:13.140 surveilled

01:18:13.660 and the offense should be prevented

01:18:15.020 at all times

01:18:15.820 but that doesn't describe the young

01:18:17.720 men who are sick to death of that

01:18:18.960 culture who are also saying

01:18:20.220 yeah i love bekele trump and malay

01:18:22.140 why not

01:18:22.580 risk

01:18:23.260 risk defines masculinity

01:18:25.700 if you look at a chart

01:18:28.600 that plots your testosterone

01:18:30.000 and your willingness to take risks

01:18:32.240 it is a straight line

01:18:33.720 that's all

01:18:34.960 that's voting for right-wing politics

01:18:35.840 exactly

01:18:36.320 it's almost like

01:18:37.520 there's

01:18:37.940 there's

01:18:38.320 some sort of

01:18:39.720 health aspect to it

01:18:41.020 isn't there

01:18:41.320 some kind of connection

01:18:42.180 but i also have

01:18:43.440 another explanation

01:18:44.860 for why it is that people

01:18:46.320 don't appreciate democracy

01:18:48.100 in certain states

01:18:49.240 that can be

01:18:49.920 found through examples

01:18:51.060 in

01:18:51.520 other parts of the world

01:18:52.940 which is

01:18:53.500 this example is

01:18:54.580 south africa

01:18:55.520 this was

01:18:56.480 last year in may

01:18:58.080 a report from the economist

01:18:59.720 talking about south africans

01:19:00.960 being fed up

01:19:01.700 after 30 years of democracy

01:19:03.020 why

01:19:03.840 because it's a failed state

01:19:05.500 typically

01:19:06.960 failed states

01:19:08.480 and i would say

01:19:09.000 the uk

01:19:09.460 is getting

01:19:10.420 perilously close

01:19:11.700 to becoming one

01:19:12.740 end up not liking

01:19:14.840 the government

01:19:15.540 that's failing them

01:19:16.760 stranger things have happened

01:19:18.880 i mean

01:19:19.320 listen

01:19:19.760 listen to this

01:19:20.680 so this was a

01:19:21.460 30 years of freedom

01:19:23.300 in south africa

01:19:24.380 the more socializing

01:19:26.040 across racial boundaries

01:19:27.160 but south africans

01:19:28.460 said that race relations

01:19:29.560 have

01:19:29.880 have improved since 1994

01:19:32.760 has been falling

01:19:33.880 most south africans

01:19:36.340 say that they are

01:19:36.980 dissatisfied with

01:19:38.020 democracy

01:19:38.540 and would ditch

01:19:39.260 elected governments

01:19:40.120 if an autocrat

01:19:41.200 could do a better job

01:19:42.500 why

01:19:43.180 well it's because

01:19:44.320 south africans

01:19:45.320 no longer see their lives

01:19:46.320 getting better

01:19:46.960 on average

01:19:47.760 incomes have stagnated

01:19:49.200 power and water cuts

01:19:51.020 have become more frequent

01:19:52.160 more frequent

01:19:53.100 and corruption

01:19:53.940 has seeped into

01:19:55.640 every layer of the state

01:19:57.300 only 15% of 257 municipalities

01:20:00.240 get clean audits

01:20:01.480 from the relevant watchdog

01:20:02.440 so the entire state

01:20:04.060 up to this moment as well

01:20:05.940 is a complete failed disaster

01:20:07.700 and people have said

01:20:08.740 i don't want this anymore

01:20:10.180 that's why people end up

01:20:11.700 giving up on their governments

01:20:12.900 some days in south africa

01:20:14.660 they only get power

01:20:15.960 for four hours of the day

01:20:18.480 which makes running

01:20:19.520 a restaurant

01:20:20.440 impossible

01:20:21.380 loads and loads

01:20:22.880 of quality of life

01:20:23.900 things obviously

01:20:24.600 impossible

01:20:25.440 parts of rural ireland

01:20:27.220 at the moment

01:20:27.860 still don't have any power

01:20:29.060 because of storm

01:20:29.780 storm

01:20:30.160 at least that's

01:20:31.860 a fixable problem

01:20:32.800 whereas in south africa

01:20:33.820 the infrastructure

01:20:34.520 has just got worse

01:20:35.620 since the end of apartheid

01:20:37.240 and in many ways

01:20:38.140 as controversial

01:20:39.640 as it might be

01:20:40.440 the standard of living

01:20:41.480 for most people

01:20:42.380 under apartheid

01:20:43.500 was probably higher

01:20:44.600 you know

01:20:46.000 it's a similar thing

01:20:47.040 to rhodesia

01:20:48.020 and zimbabwe

01:20:48.820 after 20 years

01:20:50.760 of zimbabwe

01:20:51.880 then they had

01:20:53.140 mass famines

01:20:53.780 and millions of people

01:20:54.480 dying

01:20:54.800 and they still have

01:20:55.540 i think 25% of children

01:20:56.960 have stunted growth

01:20:57.900 and they had the highest

01:20:59.540 standard of living

01:21:00.280 in africa

01:21:01.280 when it was rhodesia

01:21:03.320 turns out race communism 0.65

01:21:04.560 not good

01:21:05.540 yeah it doesn't work

01:21:06.820 but of course

01:21:07.880 again

01:21:08.740 like blaming

01:21:09.760 gentle parenting

01:21:11.120 overprotective parenting

01:21:12.300 being online too much

01:21:13.620 the solutions advocated

01:21:15.540 by the media

01:21:16.780 are not solutions

01:21:18.040 to okay

01:21:18.620 maybe we should

01:21:19.540 improve the country

01:21:20.560 rather than make it worse

01:21:21.720 the solution is

01:21:22.620 how do we nudge people

01:21:24.860 into just accepting

01:21:26.660 that their lives are shit

01:21:28.200 learned helplessness

01:21:29.140 learned helplessness

01:21:30.280 because that's what i got

01:21:31.520 from this independent article

01:21:33.020 if gen z has given up

01:21:34.520 on democracy

01:21:35.120 we're in even more trouble

01:21:36.640 than we thought

01:21:37.340 because good

01:21:37.900 because i might be out

01:21:39.260 of a paycheck

01:21:39.920 if they get what they want

01:21:41.720 so this guy says

01:21:43.080 that he was a lifetime

01:21:44.020 school teacher of history

01:21:45.260 and politics

01:21:45.760 and a headmaster

01:21:46.480 for 20 years

01:21:47.720 i toiled for 40 years

01:21:49.820 to bring politics

01:21:50.560 and current affairs

01:21:51.440 into the classroom

01:21:52.740 i never minded

01:21:53.740 what political views

01:21:54.660 they had

01:21:55.020 as long as it wasn't extreme

01:21:56.160 as long as it wasn't extreme

01:21:57.520 so you did

01:21:57.940 so you did

01:21:59.120 but i cared deeply

01:22:00.240 that they formed views

01:22:01.440 on the biggest issues

01:22:02.780 of the day

01:22:03.280 and i'm sure you didn't

01:22:04.080 try and nudge them

01:22:04.880 in any particular direction

01:22:06.480 and he goes on to say

01:22:07.660 autocracy may be fine

01:22:09.340 as long as it's working

01:22:10.640 for you

01:22:11.300 yeah

01:22:12.300 that's literally

01:22:13.040 their opinion

01:22:13.460 that's the whole point

01:22:13.940 that's the point

01:22:14.940 but you all should know

01:22:16.280 it's dark underbelly

01:22:17.620 repression of free speech

01:22:19.200 wouldn't know

01:22:19.620 what that felt like

01:22:20.480 yeah

01:22:20.780 literal thought crimes

01:22:22.500 in the country

01:22:23.040 arbitrary imprisonment

01:22:24.460 what's that

01:22:25.320 never heard of that

01:22:26.420 happening in this country

01:22:27.440 and the trampling

01:22:28.500 of minorities

01:22:29.380 we're not a minority yet

01:22:32.980 but

01:22:33.200 i don't care

01:22:34.260 i don't care about

01:22:35.700 the feelings of minorities

01:22:36.800 i don't care what's good

01:22:38.140 for them

01:22:38.540 because what's good

01:22:39.420 for them

01:22:39.920 is what's bad for us

01:22:41.120 and that's been prioritized

01:22:42.240 for decades

01:22:43.120 at this point

01:22:43.720 and then he goes on

01:22:44.680 to accidentally

01:22:45.600 accidentally

01:22:47.000 make dictatorship

01:22:48.560 sound way more peaceful

01:22:50.800 than democracy

01:22:51.880 by saying

01:22:52.940 throughout history

01:22:53.900 countless millions

01:22:55.160 have died

01:22:55.860 in the name of democracy

01:22:56.880 but barely any have died

01:22:58.700 wanting to supplant democracy

01:23:00.060 by dictatorship

01:23:00.920 so it's like a peaceful

01:23:02.940 transfer of power then

01:23:04.400 the romanovs would disagree 0.99

01:23:05.900 but there you go

01:23:06.380 yeah

01:23:07.060 the reason for gen z's views

01:23:09.120 has been eloquently

01:23:09.920 explained by elisa philby

01:23:11.920 author of bestseller

01:23:13.620 generation shift

01:23:14.500 she told me that gen z

01:23:15.500 haven't been brought up

01:23:16.580 in the turmoils of the

01:23:17.880 20th century

01:23:18.620 and the resulting

01:23:19.200 democratic consensus

01:23:20.160 ingrained in any generation

01:23:21.520 born in the second half

01:23:22.740 of the 20th century

01:23:23.380 yeah it's not like

01:23:24.360 world war ii

01:23:25.300 and the holocaust 0.57

01:23:26.800 and the horrors

01:23:27.420 of dictatorship

01:23:28.040 have been drilled

01:23:29.020 into our heads

01:23:29.880 from the very first time

01:23:31.100 that we could understand

01:23:32.060 the english language

01:23:33.440 no but not for them

01:23:35.040 the long shadow of hitler

01:23:36.020 and the second world war

01:23:37.020 nor even of soviet russia

01:23:38.300 and the cold war

01:23:39.020 the evils of dictatorship

01:23:40.400 have not been evident

01:23:41.420 on their watch

01:23:42.020 i'm sorry

01:23:42.660 this man is disconnected

01:23:44.600 from reality

01:23:45.340 he taught

01:23:46.060 it's on the syllabus

01:23:46.660 he taught history

01:23:47.820 and dares to claim

01:23:49.540 that we've not been told

01:23:50.900 the horror stories

01:23:51.780 of the 20th century

01:23:52.900 we've not had it

01:23:53.560 drilled into our heads

01:23:54.620 for god's sake

01:23:55.540 let me start with

01:23:56.700 a three-point plan

01:23:57.760 he ends the article

01:23:58.760 saying

01:23:59.160 voting for politicians

01:24:00.860 who tell the truth

01:24:01.880 and who deliver

01:24:02.520 on their promises

01:24:03.260 that's how you fix democracy

01:24:05.080 is to get honest politicians

01:24:06.900 and vote for them

01:24:07.880 i'm gonna deport 0.80

01:24:08.700 all foreign criminals 1.00

01:24:09.440 gets into power

01:24:10.220 deports all foreign criminals 0.94

01:24:11.260 sign me up

01:24:11.800 yeah yeah i was gonna say

01:24:12.900 well that'd be nice

01:24:13.680 if we were offered politicians

01:24:15.160 who told the truth

01:24:16.560 and delivered on their promises

01:24:17.660 but we're not

01:24:18.560 not in the uk at least

01:24:20.000 that's like him saying

01:24:21.280 how do you restore faith

01:24:22.540 in democracy

01:24:23.080 well you just be good

01:24:24.120 you just fix democracy

01:24:25.640 yeah

01:24:26.060 okay

01:24:26.440 oh guess what he says

01:24:29.160 is part of it

01:24:29.760 is the second point

01:24:30.700 a properly funded

01:24:31.900 and properly impartial

01:24:33.280 bbc

01:24:34.000 that'll fix it

01:24:35.260 that'll fix it

01:24:36.540 better state propaganda

01:24:37.980 is what we need

01:24:39.160 and also

01:24:40.220 the teaching of citizenship

01:24:41.580 and democracy

01:24:42.300 to all our school children

01:24:43.400 you already do that

01:24:44.660 and again

01:24:45.240 that's just another

01:24:46.020 state propaganda

01:24:46.980 propaganda exercise

01:24:48.460 right there

01:24:49.020 so

01:24:49.460 to fix democracy

01:24:50.980 and make it so

01:24:51.780 gen z

01:24:52.200 doesn't give up

01:24:53.080 on democracy

01:24:53.660 you need to

01:24:54.440 propagandize them better

01:24:55.580 and also

01:24:56.760 controversially

01:24:58.640 do good government

01:25:00.860 yeah well that's not

01:25:02.700 what we're getting

01:25:03.140 right now

01:25:03.660 so that's why

01:25:05.020 the zoomers 1.00

01:25:06.260 are yearning

01:25:07.140 for a king

01:25:07.820 excellent

01:25:09.100 uh samson

01:25:10.180 do we have any

01:25:10.740 video comments today

01:25:11.760 he's wheeling over now

01:25:14.020 we do

01:25:14.480 media is a snapshot

01:25:18.320 of the time and culture

01:25:19.200 in which it was produced

01:25:20.020 which makes it useful

01:25:20.780 for seeing how quickly

01:25:21.460 and in which direction

01:25:22.060 mainstream leftist ideology

01:25:23.060 mutates

01:25:23.580 take for example

01:25:24.360 await further instructions

01:25:25.340 a 2018 horror film

01:25:26.560 which is clearly

01:25:27.000 left wing in nature

01:25:27.720 the protagonists

01:25:28.420 are a mixed race couple

01:25:29.140 the grandfather is racist

01:25:30.180 and abusive to his son

01:25:31.060 the father is called

01:25:31.700 and emotionally detached

01:25:32.420 etc

01:25:32.740 the core of the film

01:25:33.940 is that the family

01:25:34.480 blindly accept instructions

01:25:35.600 coming from the tv

01:25:36.260 believing it's the government

01:25:37.120 except for the protagonists

01:25:38.120 who are sceptical

01:25:38.740 indeed there's even a vaccine

01:25:40.160 they have to inject

01:25:40.820 which ends up killing

01:25:41.500 the grandfather

01:25:41.980 and the father says

01:25:42.720 it's a good thing we took it

01:25:43.660 or we might have ended up

01:25:44.360 like him

01:25:44.720 clearly it's a pre-covid

01:25:46.220 distrust authority narrative

01:25:47.440 which came just before

01:25:48.360 the vaccine and mask mandates

01:25:49.560 predictive programming at work

01:25:52.000 yep

01:25:52.880 i mean i didn't know

01:25:53.900 that even existed

01:25:54.740 on to the next one

01:25:55.700 oh

01:25:56.000 that's you

01:25:57.980 the final two

01:26:01.280 harry is northern

01:26:02.580 naturally based

01:26:03.980 he got kicked out of

01:26:05.120 a rock band

01:26:06.000 because he's so based

01:26:07.220 josh can tell you

01:26:08.380 the psychology of these

01:26:09.620 poser punk and metal bands

01:26:12.020 both have had to endure

01:26:13.420 research on degenerate people

01:26:15.000 to expose their evils

01:26:16.440 to sunlight

01:26:17.280 harry goes in h tier

01:26:19.400 josh goes in j tier

01:26:21.700 yeah

01:26:22.740 right at the bottom

01:26:24.500 where i belong

01:26:25.280 don't don't worry

01:26:28.000 i'm on top of you

01:26:28.840 just how you like it

01:26:30.060 i'm worried about being in the

01:26:32.340 middle here

01:26:32.740 well everyone's

01:26:34.340 first time

01:26:34.740 if you've noticed the tier

01:26:35.740 list is based on the first

01:26:37.960 letter of someone's first name

01:26:39.060 so

01:26:40.460 alifornia refugee

01:26:41.740 has tricked us into actually

01:26:44.200 being very nice about us

01:26:45.540 and not actually categorize us

01:26:47.360 he's tricked us into getting

01:26:47.540 invested in this

01:26:48.480 while also not offending

01:26:49.860 any of us

01:26:50.520 that's true

01:26:51.460 very clever

01:26:52.320 you'd make a good politician

01:26:53.580 yeah that was

01:26:54.340 that was quite good

01:26:55.060 wait who's

01:26:55.620 also thank you very much

01:26:56.360 oh it's daisy

01:26:56.960 oh okay

01:26:57.440 on to the next one

01:26:58.980 the refrain from weak leftists

01:27:02.640 is to say that illegal immigrants

01:27:04.080 can't be expelled if they do not

01:27:05.420 have documentation declaring

01:27:06.840 their country of origin

01:27:08.220 let me posit a fix to this

01:27:10.160 it doesn't matter

01:27:11.400 when they arrived with documents

01:27:12.940 or without they will have been

01:27:14.060 recorded including how they

01:27:15.380 entered the country

01:27:16.620 simply send them back from where

01:27:18.060 they set off to cross our border

01:27:19.980 in many cases this means france

01:27:21.780 which is a safe country

01:27:23.340 in fewer cases this will be a

01:27:24.660 plurality of countries most of which

01:27:26.420 are safe

01:27:27.340 substantially this will reduce the

01:27:28.800 number needing detaining

01:27:29.880 who can then be held

01:27:30.880 until they reveal the truth

01:27:31.960 of their situation

01:27:32.740 we can also just detain them

01:27:34.620 on either ascension island

01:27:35.520 or pitcan

01:27:36.080 i mean pitcan's already a prison

01:27:37.160 colony full of nonces

01:27:38.000 so they'd feel right at home

01:27:39.280 blimey

01:27:40.540 i'm not joking

01:27:41.080 most of it

01:27:41.560 like half of the island

01:27:42.720 were were pedos

01:27:44.060 so we just like

01:27:45.060 kept them on the island

01:27:46.060 as prisoners

01:27:46.740 pedo island

01:27:47.860 brass i

01:27:48.580 do it prophetic

01:27:49.840 yeah

01:27:50.320 uh we've got a couple of minutes

01:27:52.620 uh we've got some general comments

01:27:54.480 i think

01:27:54.820 some good ones here

01:27:56.000 yes go for it

01:27:56.780 uh connor

01:27:57.760 people in the live chat

01:27:58.560 demanding to know

01:27:59.240 where the ken mug has gone

01:28:00.580 uh it is

01:28:01.720 in my cupboard at home

01:28:02.840 i think i took it home for christmas

01:28:04.560 and i've left it there

01:28:05.280 selfish bastard

01:28:06.960 denying us the ken 1.00

01:28:08.100 the wigan survivalist says

01:28:09.560 any thoughts

01:28:10.160 about our dear boy

01:28:11.300 callum being detained

01:28:12.100 by uk terror police

01:28:13.400 and we did

01:28:14.040 touch on that

01:28:14.920 but um

01:28:15.640 obviously it's awful

01:28:16.540 hope callum's doing all right

01:28:17.900 i think he got all of his stuff

01:28:19.540 back at least

01:28:20.240 and he got his video footage back

01:28:21.580 they did hold it

01:28:22.300 for the maximum amount

01:28:23.380 yeah

01:28:23.740 they could

01:28:24.260 and who knows

01:28:24.940 what they rifled through

01:28:26.300 on all of his files

01:28:27.300 because he would have had

01:28:28.040 memory cards and sds

01:28:29.260 and such

01:28:29.740 did they disclose

01:28:30.380 if it was for something

01:28:31.380 he'd said

01:28:31.840 or just was it

01:28:32.560 because of his travel history

01:28:33.580 travel history

01:28:34.380 travel history

01:28:34.980 particularly regarding russia

01:28:36.640 they sound like

01:28:37.340 they were very interested

01:28:38.280 in whether he'd taken money

01:28:39.720 from anybody in russia

01:28:40.800 i'm surprised that it

01:28:41.880 wasn't about the taliban

01:28:42.900 and afghanistan

01:28:43.660 but they seem much more

01:28:44.720 interested in russia

01:28:46.040 presumably because

01:28:46.880 they're an active enemy

01:28:47.800 right

01:28:48.280 also if callum were a spy

01:28:49.940 why would he videotape

01:28:51.460 everything he did

01:28:52.460 in a country

01:28:53.120 and then post it online

01:28:54.680 to millions of people

01:28:55.780 if i were a spy

01:28:57.660 i would not do that

01:28:58.740 deep cover

01:28:59.380 he would

01:29:00.600 he would be a terrible spy

01:29:02.140 no offense callum

01:29:03.180 he does stick out a bit

01:29:04.960 doesn't he

01:29:05.440 you know

01:29:06.020 the north koreans

01:29:07.120 he certainly did in his

01:29:08.280 tourism in england video

01:29:09.760 that's true

01:29:10.820 he was a white guy

01:29:11.640 yeah

01:29:11.980 so um

01:29:14.060 also andy king says

01:30:06.180 hapsification
