good afternoon folks welcome to the podcast the lotus eaters for friday the 14th of february
00:00:04.420
2025 it is friday the best day of the week i'm joined by stelios and stan and dan from
00:00:09.600
voice of wales and today we're going to be talking about the looming end of the ukraine conflict
00:00:15.880
thank goodness an afghan driver whose car terrorized munich probably bought it from amazon
00:00:22.160
and how a uh royal marine fell afoul of political correctness but has been given justice thank
00:00:30.560
goodness um anyway no particular announcements other than that after this there is a lads hour
00:00:36.400
where they're going to be discussing the final points of beer well it is valentine's yeah well
00:00:42.060
yeah it's valentine's day as well which means after this i need to go get a card
00:00:47.440
send our love to the audience uh i'm i'm joking i got the card just before the podcast actually
00:00:54.800
uh anyway not last night then no no i got the flowers last night right let's uh let's begin
00:01:02.480
so uh it looks like that there is a realistic end to the ukrainian conflict looming into view
00:01:08.880
and you can imagine the people who are in favor of this which is people who are involved with it
00:01:13.940
people who don't want eternal wars and you can imagine who is opposed to this which is
00:01:19.300
shit libs uh very very very um screechy women and camp men who want for some reason for ukrainians
00:01:28.540
to die forever in a war against russia and i just can't stand it i actually really hate it the
00:01:33.780
ukrainian conflict i don't think people realize the scope of it so far so we're going to go through
00:01:37.600
some of the details before we do though islander 3 is coming so if you want to get an islander 2 shirt
00:01:43.580
while they're still there go get them now because you won't be able to get them again
00:01:46.820
as you need to order myself one because i don't have a heavy metal one yet and i do want it
00:01:51.040
anyway so the numbers are just horrific and that's that's by any standard because you would think in
00:01:58.800
the 21st century war would be a much smaller affair it'd be more surgical more technological
00:02:03.480
it wouldn't be mass movements of troops but actually no not in russia and ukraine
00:02:07.580
um it the common figure i could find bandied about which is cited in this abc news story but it was
00:02:13.340
also given by new york times and various others uh comes from the former prosecutor general of ukraine
00:02:20.500
who claimed that around 30 000 ukrainian troops a month are being killed or badly wounded and that
00:02:26.600
the ukrainian toll so far is probably north of half a million wow which is huge i mean this is this is
00:02:33.620
leaving demographic holes in ukraine's yeah but the solution to that is immigration well that's uh
00:02:41.880
a different different story it's been announced oh is it oh jesus christ i didn't even see that
00:02:48.760
no it's been announced immigration and you'll know where they're coming from
00:02:53.520
just don't do it anyway so the russians have suffered between 300 and 400 000 casualties
00:02:59.740
soldiers to know the number of civilians and you know the actual number is of course very difficult
00:03:05.640
at the best of times but the point is it is around somewhere of a million people have died in this
00:03:10.640
conflict over the last almost three years uh so you you might think that bringing an end to it was
00:03:16.340
actually a good thing yeah because i don't want millions of people to die in really honestly kind
00:03:22.960
trivial yeah reasons as well but how have they painted the soviet union and i use that word
00:03:30.020
advise it go on why have they painted the soviet union when it had all those countries as a buffer
00:03:36.280
states basically to protect the motherland and when they were given up they were told that
00:03:42.740
nato would not advance into those states yeah vladimir putin said this in the 90s and they've been
00:03:48.960
saying it ever since and they did yeah they did and they also put nuclear weapons into germany
00:03:54.640
yeah east germany i wasn't going to get into it but there is a fair argument to be made that there
00:03:59.720
has been a lack of respect shown to russia's authority in the region well when i was at nato in shape
00:04:06.340
sorry i've got to just when i was at nato in shape there were 16 countries in in nato there are now 31
00:04:13.300
yeah um the the uh the the first remit of it was that we were a defensive organization we will never
00:04:21.660
fire the first shot and then we went into libya and other states as well as an aggressive force so
00:04:29.140
so it has changed from being 16 peace-loving peacekeepers to the withdrawal of the british army
00:04:37.140
the rhine out and also the americans out of the out of uh uh germany to now being uh an aggressive
00:04:44.860
force um and it's expansionist and unfortunately uh well they've broken every every gentleman's
00:04:54.860
agreement or whatever um when it comes to russia yeah um so i'm i just want to carry on rather than
00:05:01.580
really sorry the whole thing but i i'm not uh obviously i'm not against nato or anything like
00:05:06.020
that but there's no doubt that it hasn't been employed as it was as it was meant to have been
00:05:12.240
employed uh and so anyway getting back to ukraine decades now for decades yeah this has been going on
00:05:17.240
since the fall of the berlin wall yeah yeah um so yeah if not before so uh you can go to uh various
00:05:23.600
ukraine tracker websites to see how much money has been spent um it's hard to find a correct number
00:05:30.000
frankly because obviously the number changes uh but uh this one says somewhere around 250 billion
00:05:35.980
euros has been spent uh it's found other numbers which are sort of like 380 billion dollars things
00:05:41.540
like this so is that the official figures it's hard to find direct official figures that's the thing
00:05:46.660
yeah it's because these are all an exact equivalent number will have been skimmed off
00:05:51.220
uh well yeah i mean this is this this is just publicly announced uh totals so from that obviously
00:05:58.960
and zelinski said something like half the money just hasn't arrived and so it's you know very
00:06:03.840
leaky pipe that's transporting this money to ukraine uh because people seem to forget that eastern
00:06:10.040
europe is not just one first world western democracy it's actually full of deeply corrupt states
00:06:15.340
ukraine being one of the most corrupt yeah but that doesn't mean that we should want them to be
00:06:19.820
involved in a war or anything i'm not saying it was justified for the russians to invade or anything
00:06:22.860
like that um it's just when you approach these things with a clear set of eyes you get a better
00:06:29.360
perspective on the circumstances i'm sure you'll find some of the money on hunter biden's laptop
00:06:33.580
well no doubt anyway so here's a map of the ethnic distribution of ukraine and ethnic distribution is
00:06:42.200
always really well mapped out when you look at the languages that people speak uh the blue is ukrainian
00:06:47.960
but the red is russian now you might be wondering why were the crimeans so happy to become part of
00:06:54.060
russia now you know yeah and you can see also there are other large areas in the east that are
00:07:01.340
heavily russian so like 80 plus russian and this is a map of where the russians have invaded and gained
00:07:08.460
control of so as you can see the russians are taking the russian-speaking areas of ukraine
00:07:13.880
people who probably should have already been part of russia anyway yeah and so this is don't forget
00:07:21.120
the capital was in ukraine at one stage only for a few years yeah but um but the the point is there
00:07:26.520
there is an ethnic uh fisher here that is coming to a kind of natural settlement uh this this is not
00:07:35.780
entirely irrational and it's actually kind of normal that the russians should be a part of russia
00:07:42.160
and ukrainians should be a part of ukraine and the welsh should be a part of england
00:07:49.960
but the the point being this is this is a very natural thing for people to want which is why
00:07:56.640
you had uh donbass and what was the other one that were being separatist uh because they wanted
00:08:03.020
to be free of ukraine because the ukrainians have an ethnic grievance against russians and not
00:08:07.240
unreasonably so the way the russians have treated them has been terrible throughout the 20th century so
00:08:11.720
anyway i'm like i said i didn't want to relitigate all of this or anything like that uh just basically
00:08:16.700
i want because there are going to be lots of people who only watch the mainstream coverage of
00:08:21.100
this who view this as something like star wars oh the plucky rebel ukrainians have been invaded by
00:08:27.520
the russian death star for no reason just because they're evil and they worship the dark side of the
00:08:32.680
force it's like no they have they have interests they have requirements they have geostrategic
00:08:38.820
objectives they have to meet for the security of their own country and if you want to understand
00:08:43.100
these things you have to accept that's true yeah yeah so anyway trump has moved in and decided right
00:08:50.620
this is just coming to an end and finally he said he was going to do this obviously he said for
00:08:54.500
literally months and months and months leading up i'll get this done really quickly
00:08:57.520
and he's getting on with it so uh i'll just read from his truth social post uh i had a lengthy
00:09:04.800
and productive phone call with vladimir putin of russia uh we discussed ukraine middle east energy
00:09:09.140
artificial intelligence the power of the dollar and various other subjects we've we both reflected
00:09:13.940
on the great history of our nations and the fact that we fought so successfully together in world
00:09:17.660
war ii remembering that russia lost tens of millions of people and we likewise lost so many
00:09:22.600
now this is an interesting perspective right and one that you simply will not get from the likes
00:09:28.220
of kia starmer rishi sannak or boris johnson which is to accept that russia itself is a great country
00:09:34.720
with a long history and the russians are sensitive to their own dignity as a people correct this is one
00:09:42.000
thing that the modern liberal neoliberal sort of globalist just cannot accept but it is a definite
00:09:49.080
core part of the russian mind and why vladimir putin does seem to actually enjoy organic support
00:09:55.600
from the russian people even though he's launched an offensive war right vladimir putin as far as
00:10:00.680
they're concerned i think is defending the dignity of russia on the world stage and making them a power
00:10:06.340
like they used to be when they had the soviet union i think to the average russian that is actually
00:10:10.360
important yeah yeah i i i think that if if people were to say that this is like antibi airport where
00:10:18.040
the israelis went in and got their hostages back people have to understand that the people that
00:10:24.960
lived in in in the in southern ukraine have been been butchered and slaughtered by uh by ukrainians
00:10:33.920
as of britallion and co for years and years and years and there comes a point where after the warnings
00:10:40.560
and warnings and warnings by by the russia by russian federation that if you don't put your own
00:10:47.520
house in order we will and that's what he's done yeah so i just want to to hammer on that point a
00:10:54.760
second just because it was just this is just you could never imagine keir starmore boris johnson or
00:11:00.560
anyone else publicly accepting that russia has the legitimacy to exist as a state and therefore
00:11:07.720
should be concerned about its own dignity uh trump does but and he also mentions that at some point
00:11:13.620
they were allies in world war two they say we successfully fought together yeah yeah that's
00:11:18.800
true well that was more my enemy's enemy is my friend yeah yeah but having said that having said
00:11:25.480
that the uh the point is he's done two things he's made this speech but at the same time he's told
00:11:31.940
nato that nato is not a priority by for the united states anymore sorry sorry nato in the west you
00:11:40.120
know europe is not a priority and and so and and ukraine can't join nato so that's been the quid pro quo
00:11:47.600
to vladimir we'll we'll get into it in a little bit because there there are definitely forces who wanted
00:11:53.900
to um as unwise as that might be uh so he carries on and says we've also agreed that our respective teams
00:11:59.280
will start negotiations immediately and we'll begin by calling president zelinski of ukraine
00:12:03.500
to inform him of the conversation something which i'll be doing right now so he's gone above
00:12:08.420
zelinski's head at this he hasn't involved in this he's taken his own action i've asked secretary of
00:12:13.580
state marco rubio director of the cia john ratcliffe and michael waltz and various others uh to lead the
00:12:19.280
negotiations which i feel strongly will be successful and then he says that look i just want to bring this
00:12:23.640
to a peaceful conclusion which is fine and honestly the sensible and mature thing to do at this point
00:12:30.320
in the conflict like a lot of people have died ukraine is clearly losing this war and would clearly
00:12:36.540
have become been knocked out of the war were it not for the endless treasure and munitions we were
00:12:41.400
pouring into them and boris johnson poured petrol yes he did he he hampered a peace agreement
00:12:46.900
was it two years ago now yeah two years and a million men yeah and yeah exactly at the time
00:12:52.960
there's something like 200 000 300 000 dead and now it's 700 000 more so well done boris uh anyway
00:12:59.440
so zelinski posted on twitter that he had had a chat with president trump uh honestly like there's not
00:13:07.820
much for him to say he just says yeah i discussed it with him and hopefully we'll get to have negotiations
00:13:12.940
uh trump made some other comments as well um uh that he uh is on the way to getting to peace
00:13:20.560
he thinks putin wants peace he thinks zelinski want peace and i want to just stop seeing people
00:13:26.040
getting killed and so they're planning to have a peace summit of some sort apparently in saudi arabia
00:13:32.180
some point which i wish it was gaza yeah yeah um it doesn't have a nice hotel there yet um but uh
00:13:40.560
yeah so uh putin had invited trump to moscow but of course uh trump was like well it'd probably take
00:13:45.440
place somewhere else yeah yeah neutral growth yeah um and uh defense secretary pete hegseth uh
00:13:52.980
said that uh um ukraine will not realistically enter nato so the defense secretary of the united states
00:14:00.820
has ruled that out uh he says we want the sovereign prosperous ukraine but we must start by recognizing
00:14:04.940
returning to ukraine's pre-2014 borders is also an unrealistic objective as is joining nato so
00:14:11.740
basically the way the map was as i showed you a minute ago is what it's probably going to end up
00:14:17.260
looking like but that's actually not a terribly unreasonable position because of course the
00:14:21.000
majority russian areas will just join russia yeah anyway so uh people pointing out well hang on a
00:14:27.700
second he's doing this without zelinski's say so it's like yeah because zelinski has lost the war
00:14:33.920
this is what happens when you lose a war you actually aren't in a position to negotiate from
00:14:38.280
place of strength he was a puppet anyway well yeah i agree i can't remember the name of the oligarch
00:14:42.980
who funded him who become the president uh offhand but yeah he's he's he's he's a comedy he's a
00:14:48.860
comedian he's an actor like he's not a great machiavellian political agent i mean i don't see
00:14:54.120
it that way uh not in because i'm going to speak necessarily pro zelinski but because the whole thing
00:14:59.840
as far as what we call the west is concerned is military support and also intel support to ukraine
00:15:05.600
so that is what is being taken away yeah without that ukraine couldn't fight yeah yeah
00:15:11.140
yes um anyway zelinski uh wants to be involved in negotiations which is not at all unreasonable
00:15:19.360
and i don't doubt that he will be um but the western liberal has been trying to advance zelinski's
00:15:26.560
position in the negotiations as if he's the one who has won the war and it's like no he just
00:15:30.840
he's he's the losing party in the war i'm afraid and he's also not the party that has been
00:15:37.160
responsible for the where the wealth and the munitions have been coming from so he's going
00:15:41.600
to end up inevitably taking a back seat in these negotiations because it will be between trump and
00:15:45.640
putin revealing to us that this was an american proxy war against russia launched during the biden
00:15:51.980
administration and prosecuted very happily by biden and his in the sort of the west under his
00:15:57.760
leadership uh things have changed under trump honestly for the more sensible yeah fewer people
00:16:03.560
die because of this and the people to blame are the people that now own vast tracks of ukraine
00:16:08.440
yeah no doubt um black rock yeah yeah yeah no doubt i don't even get into it it's like it's just
00:16:16.980
it's a there was a u.s general in the 20s who wrote a book called war is a racket yeah and
00:16:23.540
smedley butler and he's just so right about it absolutely right so right industrial warfare is
00:16:28.100
just a racket anyway zelinski wants 100 000 european troops as peacekeepers in ukraine uh to keep a
00:16:34.660
ceasefire guaranteed uh as well as he'd like guarantees from nato uh which he probably won't get
00:16:41.080
um but trump has said that he will guarantee it so who knows what that means and uh this uh hegseth
00:16:48.420
also said that everything is on the table in the conversation with putin and zelinski now people have been
00:16:53.300
pointing out bbc pointed out that uh the europeans seem to have been completely caught out by this and
00:16:57.920
outmaneuver so again zelinski didn't know what was going on the europeans didn't know what was going
00:17:02.440
on and suddenly trump's on the phone to putin said like let's wind this down sick of this nonsense
00:17:06.420
because people have got remember as well we we failed to break russia in the way that we thought
00:17:11.140
we were going to we thought that what we would do is essentially just strangle the russian economy to
00:17:15.800
death so that the russian war machine wouldn't be able to function and that they would just end up
00:17:21.060
giving up the war that didn't happen they basically judo flipped us which is why all of us
00:17:24.740
exactly it's one of the reasons all of your prices are shooting through the roof at the moment
00:17:28.660
uh the the russians were the russians have been preparing for this eventuality since at least 2014
00:17:34.540
and they knew that they had some cards to play and they played them and so okay well we can sit
00:17:41.240
there and say russia bad yeah maybe but also russia source of european energy and you you all laughed at
00:17:47.820
trump when he said why are you dependent on russia for european energy laughed in his face
00:17:51.480
and look at you now so just saying uh anyway so various uh foreign ministers diplomats heads of
00:17:58.420
state from europe have been caught completely off guard by this uh europe's defense ministers had one
00:18:04.700
common message there could be no negotiation about ukraine without ukraine in europe at the table too
00:18:09.040
it's like they're begging please can we be involved why would you need to be these people as well were
00:18:13.580
the ones who didn't want negotiations they were the ones who wanted to keep plowing money in and keep
00:18:17.420
the fight going on so to say they want to be part of the negotiations they didn't want to be part of
00:18:22.240
it just shows where they are you know they're not interested in stopping anything they just want to
00:18:27.160
be a part of it yeah absolutely uh bbc say after a frenetic 24 hours of u.s declarations there's a
00:18:33.660
tangible sense that europe's leaders have been caught by surprise and they now fear being bypassed on any
00:18:38.240
potential ukraine deal and deprived of a voice on the future of european security it's like well many of
00:18:43.200
you only spend like two percent gdp on your security or like however much below um the nato requirement
00:18:49.920
for the spending is so the us is carrying europe's defense and has been for decades and you know this
00:18:56.060
donald trump has been literally from the beginning of his presidency back in 2016 complaining about this
00:19:01.600
to you saying look you need to spend more on defense you need to pull your weight and suddenly when
00:19:06.460
you didn't do that are you surprised that he's just ignoring you when he goes to deal with
00:19:10.700
well i don't think he's ignoring them it's it's uh the left and the libtards have all been doing
00:19:16.400
this la la la la la la la because if you looked at his record his record has been withdraw america first
00:19:23.880
no more wars and i'll even talk to north korea oh yeah he shook kim jongen's hand across the dmz
00:19:30.600
yeah and so and so anyone anyone can you know who's compass mentis in this could look and think
00:19:39.460
right uh trump's won what's gonna what what what is he going to do take him seriously that's the and
00:19:46.260
this is exactly what germany's foreign minister uh said uh the call with pucin was very much out of
00:19:51.440
the blue and even if the u.s president had made it clear for months that he was aiming to bring a
00:19:55.400
quick end to the war it's like why did it come out of the blue if you knew he'd been saying this for
00:19:59.100
months like why weren't you taking him seriously you know why didn't you think he was actually going
00:20:03.480
to do something but no like you said they were cooling their heels basically assuming oh nothing's
00:20:07.400
really going to happen no trump's going to make this end in the same way he's just going to make
00:20:10.940
other things happen and the same with gaza yeah yeah and his brother actually need to think yeah oh god
00:20:17.460
he means it yeah he's actually going to be saying he's going to allow the israelis to do whatever they
00:20:23.340
want and they won't be rebuked yep so you know whether you agree with it or not is you know
00:20:28.740
go make your judgments but this is probably going to happen so prepare in advance yeah
00:20:33.460
anyway the people who aren't preparing in advance are of course running our country uh starma's
00:20:39.600
convinced that everything will work out just sunshine and roses like we're just gonna we're
00:20:45.660
literally gonna be like north korea on everything just an archaic state yeah well i mean it shows it
00:20:51.200
shows how what numbnuts knows about nato because it's uh you've got to have a unanimous
00:20:57.520
uh it's a unanimous decision the uh the supreme commander is always an american and if the
00:21:03.780
americans vote no you're not getting it correct and hegseth literally just told you no oh yeah
00:21:10.160
what are you doing oh i hate this yeah i don't even hate me it's just a moron but but that's why
00:21:15.320
they've actually started to form a european army yeah to to to circumvent this but of course they can't
00:21:22.380
even get that right no of course not but anyway so this was a remarkable exchange on british talk tv
00:21:28.740
between richard tice and julia hartley brewer and i just wanted to uh just watch some of this just to
00:21:35.460
capture the liberal class's opinion on what has happened here because they are so stuck in this
00:21:41.520
kind of mist of morality when it comes to international power politics that it completely
00:21:46.980
blinds them to the realities of what is happening it's russia that's killing people if russia stopped
00:21:52.840
fighting if russia wanted to end the war if russia stopped fighting russia could just stop fighting
00:21:56.480
there wouldn't be a war no one became and that would be our job done ultimately ultimately maybe
00:22:02.800
that's what the negotiations ultimately which part of britain would you give away if we were invaded
00:22:07.620
and you want to negotiate peace none at all oh so we wouldn't give away any of britain but it's okay
00:22:12.160
to give away a bit of ukraine hang on it's not us giving it away julia right it's ukraine and ukraine
00:22:16.600
ukraine doesn't want to give it away of course it doesn't but ultimately as everybody said it is
00:22:21.100
zelensky's decision but ultimately we've got to yes we've got to stop killing people if we were invaded
00:22:27.000
and our close allies in nato like the united states basically supported us for a bit but gave us just
00:22:31.780
enough support so we could actually not not lose but we'd not enough to win yeah and after three years
00:22:37.320
whoever was president of the united states said you're in a stronger position for which to try and
00:22:39.980
negotiate a solution so which no and at which point donald trump whoever no let me finish says says
00:22:44.960
says oh well we're going to have a negotiation we're going to we're going to let the russians
00:22:48.600
whoever invaded us keep out of territory just to clarify just how much of british territory would
00:22:53.560
you be willing to give away in those negotiations ultimately in northern ireland there was a negotiation
00:22:58.400
to stop the killing it involved horrendous compromises that lots of people didn't want to make
00:23:03.220
away territory we stopped killing people didn't give away territory that's also we didn't give
00:23:08.140
away territory that's a ridiculous analogy it's a completely valid analogy wars who invaded northern
00:23:13.720
ireland wars stop when people stop killing people no wars stop wars stop when one side is defeated
00:23:20.380
sorry have you heard of the second world war yes did we negotiate the ending of the second world war
00:23:26.980
there are lots of other wars where ultimately people negotiate a peace otherwise you just carry on
00:23:32.740
how long are we going to carry on with this falklands yeah falklands we won oh yeah we didn't
00:23:37.220
just negotiate the argentina and give them some of the falklands why not why not that would have
00:23:41.480
stopped the war yeah why not look ultimately we won that war but there are other wars where it's a
00:23:46.820
negotiated settlement because it's not our problem except it will be our problem when vladimir putin
00:23:51.080
thinks he can take any territory of any country in europe that he damn well pleases and that's
00:23:54.900
hysterical right richard tice handles her really well there he's exactly correct you can see
00:23:59.460
like the hysterical woman on one side very calm reasonable man on the other side no ukraine
00:24:06.740
doesn't want this this isn't like world war ii some wars come to a negotiated settlement especially
00:24:10.860
if you're on the losing side this is why we didn't have to do that with the argentinians
00:24:14.940
tice just completely correct on this point no this is what's going to happen and it should happen
00:24:19.720
at this point and the liberal sort of internationalists say no we've got to feed men
00:24:26.120
into the meat grinder forever 30 000 men a month are dying in ukraine why why is she so passionate
00:24:32.720
you know that you just see her face you know this is personal for her yeah you know she is you know
00:24:36.920
this she's not being a talk show host here this is a moral crusade yeah yeah absolutely yeah and
00:24:42.220
with other people's sons you know that's what really pisses me off well 18 year old that 18 year
00:24:48.400
old went to ukraine you know obviously radicalized by uk you went to ukraine and died on the first
00:24:52.560
out in that he took you know and it's because of people like this yeah it's never going to be her
00:24:57.540
and as far as she's concerned she wants that to happen so she never has to deal with it personally
00:25:02.180
it's like no that's terrible julian it's terrible it's it's a good thing that's coming to the actual
00:25:07.820
better analogy would have been uh world war one and and germany and you see when you when you do an
00:25:14.780
unfair yeah treaty what happens that's a great point actually i wish i'd made that analogy myself
00:25:21.040
it's a really good point stand um but uh no no that was you're exactly right you're exactly right
00:25:28.380
um a fair settlement to ukraine and russia would be a good thing and trump's got a fairly good sense
00:25:34.040
of fairness actually so yeah i i you know he's not a pushover so i'd be surprised if you know
00:25:39.600
everything went terribly for ukraine and zelinski but anyway we'll leave that there um just good to
00:25:44.320
see that it's coming to an end right we have a oh yeah uh matt says why was russia not accepted
00:25:51.000
into nato when clinton and bush uh with clinton and bush when putin discussed this with them then
00:25:56.680
uh would have solved a lot of problems well um you're right samson
00:26:07.460
okay no problem thank you um anyway matt says uh yeah why was it not so well this this yeah so back
00:26:18.520
in like 96 or something like that uh vladimir putin asked to join nato and they turned him down
00:26:23.420
uh which would have been i mean honestly it's kind of 4d chess move that yeah well technically what
00:26:30.320
happened is um the question was that it's open to anybody so he said yeah i'd like to join you i'd
00:26:36.700
like to join and they're oh i mean they didn't see that coming but clever to be honest very endorsing
00:26:43.360
biden yeah uh how much nhs funding with this female presenter paid to defeat russia that's he should
00:26:50.080
yeah i should have framed it that way so that's money to take away from the nhs there julia uh and
00:26:54.620
there's a lot of cia influence in ukraine including the 2014 coup uh also deep state yeah yeah absolutely
00:26:59.320
deep state things like victoria newland want uh continuation because of money and fears of what
00:27:04.740
putin would uh find in the bioweapon labs yeah i tell you why they're bioweapon american bioweapon
00:27:10.780
labs in ukraine i mean come on come on come on it's it's obviously that there is so much corruption
00:27:15.640
going on which is why the biden regime was so invested and evidently trump's not involved in it
00:27:20.160
which is why he doesn't care you know he's like no i just want people to stop dying i remember
00:27:23.920
watching the you know about a year or two before all this kicked off this time the bbc documentary
00:27:29.860
on the azov battalion and ukraine's problem with neo-nazis yeah in 2016 they used to yeah guardian
00:27:34.740
yeah oh my god look at all these nazis and then all of a sudden flip you know what we've got to
00:27:39.000
support these now yeah no that's exactly it you know these are our nazis yeah go ahead right so
00:27:44.380
yesterday in germany in munich there was a very tragic event with an afghan who literally drove a
00:27:50.340
mini cooper in a demonstration of people and yet again we saw the same ridiculous reaction
00:27:57.520
by the mainstream media and by people and by leftists especially but before we say more about
00:28:03.920
that we have merch to shill we have here wonderful irelander t-shirts and is it uh is it now time for
00:28:13.020
people to make some is it time for people to make some orders uh i mean yes but that's every day
00:28:20.220
exactly so it's order day order irelander too and we have good news that will soon arrive
00:28:28.240
right so here let's talk about some bad news and let's bear the context in mind so in the last 12
00:28:34.780
months we know at least five major terrorist attacks and terrorist acts in germany so we had michael
00:28:43.560
stuartzenberger who was attacked by by an islamist we had the solingen stabbings at the diversity
00:28:50.860
festival we had the the terrorist incidents in magdeburg exactly one with the car with the car
00:28:59.020
and someone an islamist drove the the saudi arabian drove the car into the crowd then we had the
00:29:09.040
stabbings in ashafenberg where another islamist uh killed uh an old man a 42 year year old man and
00:29:19.020
also he stabbed a baby to death the europe and yesterday we had this really tragic event where
00:29:25.260
a person i think it was enough he was an afghan who literally drove a mini cooper in a demonstration
00:29:33.020
which was a leftist demonstration if you believe by a group called verdi mwr which i'll tell you in
00:29:40.100
a bit what's happened so whenever we see attacks like these we see a particular pattern i have five
00:29:45.940
stages there you can make some amendments so for instance a criminal act is committed politicians
00:29:51.060
express their sympathies to the families of the victims stage three the crime is portrayed as an
00:29:56.040
isolated incident committed by an individual with mental health problems stage four mainstream media
00:30:01.900
politicians will scaremonger about the far right and then they forget and they move on i think the
00:30:07.500
only amendment i'd make is stage one is to say that it definitely wasn't a terrorist attack
00:30:10.960
they know nothing about the incident but they know it's not terrorist related exactly yes there is
00:30:15.940
constant uh speculation about the motives yeah he says that we can't establish what the motive might
00:30:21.940
have been but we know it wasn't terrorism yeah but is there a link to the religion of peace
00:30:27.380
he's just yelling yeah he's just an asylum seeker from an islamic country yes but you don't know he
00:30:34.320
was driving a car and cars have a radicalizing effect on people especially sometimes you know
00:30:38.760
there's so much traffic yeah there are traffic laws i mean traffic driving is right yeah and why did
00:30:45.280
he buy the car you know who sold him the car because they got they got some car dealer yeah
00:30:49.360
yeah you suggested amazon before no well yeah is he called the medi cooper killer yeah and also you
00:30:57.580
know some knives also have a voice of their own they have spirit of their own voices talking to people
00:31:03.040
just animistic ways of yeah right so what happened yesterday was that the driver was arrested
00:31:10.040
immediately and it was confirmed instantly by the police that he was an afghan and the there was
00:31:17.960
speculation about his identity and about stuff so there are several rumors about his age some people
00:31:23.700
say 24 others 27 others 30 i think it's safe to say in his somewhere in his 20s right so let's see
00:31:32.860
here the verdi group oh let's see here the munich car attack we the media they're talking about a car
00:31:44.040
yeah a car the car car did it so car attack suspected munich car attack there's nothing
00:31:53.180
suspected about it there's footage people know that it happened and it wasn't the car the car was driven
00:31:58.880
actually you've got to give sky news some credit there children among 30 injured is car driven
00:32:03.360
into munich crowd in suspected attack yeah implying a person was in control of the car making those
00:32:08.760
decisions yes so good some obviously the editor missed that yeah yeah clearly yeah some of the
00:32:14.780
headlines are are good but uh most of them are not and they say munich car attack latest
00:32:20.100
suspect name then we have munich car ramming that injured 36 investigated as islamic extremism
00:32:28.900
at least 20 injured car convert to islam nbc news yeah and here dw i think that's for deutsche
00:32:36.940
at least 20 injured after car drives into crowd in munich the car was facing east when it came into
00:32:43.640
yeah yeah maybe it's one of uh musk's self-driving teslas yeah yeah maybe they should ban cars just like
00:32:50.260
they call to ban knives after the knives attacks yeah or tweets or tweets exactly exactly yeah because
00:32:57.860
there are people behind tweets you know that yeah yeah not behind cars and knives
00:33:02.440
right so we have we have now stage two we have politicians making mistakes and making uh sorry
00:33:12.160
that's a that's a slip of the tongue yeah they make statements of sympathy and here we have
00:33:18.360
arlof schultz who's the leader of the spd party the current chancellor of germany saying he must be
00:33:23.460
punished and he must leave the country what an absolutely weak response yes a man who murders
00:33:29.980
like however many people including children by driving deliberately driving a car through a crowded area
00:33:36.640
oh well he must be deported deported you should be swinging yeah you know what are you talking about
00:33:43.080
you know oh you're going home now oh no yeah i've got go home to my wife and kids
00:33:47.860
piss off like we're gonna hang you bro and if i i i um i've been saying for many many months now
00:33:55.760
that they should be deported in an urn yeah exactly just i'm sorry i know i i this this profound
00:34:02.640
weakness pisses me off so he has a history of doing this and this is the cover from their spiegel from
00:34:08.840
october 2023 where he says we have to deport people more often and faster i mean don't even yes but
00:34:14.760
before they commit crimes yeah yes and but the point is that he doesn't do anything about it
00:34:19.820
oh yeah well um it's entirely head crew in germany lip service yeah yes and also we need there are
00:34:26.500
federal elections in nine days in germany on the 23rd of february yeah and we need to bear in mind that
00:34:32.380
his party rejected the proposal by cdu the christian democrat union to toughen up migration policies
00:34:40.980
so he makes statements of the sword after attacks but he when when the push comes to shove
00:34:48.740
you only have to look at i mean you're pointing out a german here but you only have to look at uh
00:34:55.540
at uh starmer laying a wreath in southport knowing knowing that there was a biological weapon
00:35:03.540
um and that he'd had a history and that prevent hadn't stopped him and his father hadn't stopped
00:35:09.820
him and in fact it was a terrorist incident exactly so it but the flowers the candles the mock cards and
00:35:18.920
the mock flowers that are put there by um agents i'll put it no stronger than that it's all a pretense
00:35:27.300
it's still theater isn't it yeah yeah they've got a script that they just run through whenever this
00:35:32.740
happens yeah exactly yeah right so the taliban accepted that they could cooperate with germany
00:35:42.760
if germany decides to deport to deport afghans who cause trouble i don't mean to laugh but this is
00:35:47.940
really funny because it kind of implies that the taliban care more about europeans than european
00:35:51.640
governments do yeah like the taliban like what what's happened oh that's awful do you want to send them
00:35:57.200
back like no no no no no we can't do that like god how are the taliban more empathetic towards us
00:36:06.380
than our own goddamn i also like i also like the this is a bit i mean i don't like it but you have
00:36:12.660
to you have to laugh a bit you can't help but laugh at this you can't help but laugh it's just you
00:36:16.980
know the this is called trench humor yeah the people who try to make a statement and just appear as you
00:36:24.800
strong people in the case of the taliban yeah the grown-ups in the room of the taliban yeah we are
00:36:30.260
gonna be the grown-ups here just send them back it's time send them well they probably got no more
00:36:35.600
germans have to die yeah never again never again is now look back in the taliban god right and all
00:36:44.980
this has people really upset with olaf schultz as we know uh he was confronted by a grandma
00:36:51.420
who asked him aren't you morally complicit in every murder that has occurred and this actually
00:36:57.880
shows the algorithm in their minds it's just they are sort of programmed yeah to not care about it and
00:37:04.300
just bury it and why should we just said of course i'm i'm a german politician exactly right and we need
00:37:11.580
to bear in mind that we have he does this and he is losing good 0.8 in just 30 days so all this
00:37:22.680
empty virtue signaling is actually not working yeah it's as bad as starma exactly and um sure this won't
00:37:29.720
improve the afd's chances no no no it's here we see development since the last it will since the last
00:37:37.100
action they they are predicted to get at least a 10 boost boost which is precisely because they
00:37:44.300
are addressing issues that people want that people are concerned about and what is interesting is that
00:37:50.420
we need to show what the cdu did about a month ago they made the proposal but when there was a lot of
00:37:59.160
protest against them for having passed the proposals with the support of afd members they suddenly backed
00:38:06.600
down and it was voted against and they made all kind of ritualistic all kind of ritualistic
00:38:12.940
let's say mannerisms yeah they seemed very cultist yeah to me i must say saying never we are never
00:38:20.480
gonna do this with afd again so they care much more about their their shenanigans and their buffer zone
00:38:28.460
they care more about the cold on the sanitary than about the actual actual consequences of these
00:38:33.320
policies right so the afd made a statement the driver who drove a car into a verdi demonstration
00:38:38.460
in unit in munich is afghan and 26 prediction like the perpetrator in a schavenberg he will also be
00:38:46.180
known to the police and csu governed bavaria and will be required to leave the country and will be
00:38:51.740
classified as mentally ill now a lot of it was a very accurate prediction as you will see so
00:38:59.540
i don't mean to laugh because it's not funny but it's just of course it is yeah yeah it's funny
00:39:05.920
how predictable it is and this isn't just germany this is everywhere you go you know it's always
00:39:10.100
reactionary it's never you know no one's ever dealing with stuff before it happens stopping it
00:39:14.600
happening it's always after the event and and even after the event they still don't mean anything that
00:39:19.300
they're saying yeah absolutely right so before they when they caught him he was shouting uh allah and
00:39:25.860
there are several reports that he was sharing islamist propaganda online oh really but he didn't
00:39:34.000
have the usual profile he didn't have the usual profile he was a bodybuilder and he had around a
00:39:41.740
hundred thousand followers on tiktok and instagram and that's where he posted such content but before
00:39:47.520
we say more about him there there's the main problem here according to political germany's
00:39:55.260
migrants are terrified oh well yeah i mean thoughts and prayers with the muslim community this time
00:39:59.960
yes so according to political wasn't that sorry it wasn't that the newspaper that was uh being funded
00:40:06.880
by usa yeah it is just just just came to mind yeah i don't know why right they say assaults uh stoke fear
00:40:14.180
among germany's migrants in the way wake of an attack on a christmas market in magdeburg
00:40:19.180
migrants in the city are being targeted by right-wing extremists all you have to do is not murder people
00:40:23.960
they were so frightened for the christmas market that on new year's eve they went and started raping
00:40:29.380
and assaulting people yeah that's how frightened they were it's a way of uh grief let's say grief
00:40:35.200
uh strikes people differently different ways yeah different ways it's just didn't have to be five in
00:40:40.340
two months you know what i mean because you just not commit terror attacks it's like fitness it's
00:40:44.800
whatever works for you yeah depends on who you are my problem with it just to say really quickly is
00:40:49.640
that they always say about the backgrounds but why you know if they want that sort of sympathy and
00:40:54.080
support then they should maybe call out this stuff within their community because too many of them just
00:40:57.560
stay silent and we know this oh do you mean like the grooming and rape gangs absolutely and many other
00:41:01.980
examples you know the the community keeps quiet because obviously they're not allowed to tell
00:41:07.040
to tell tales on people you know so they do have to bear some responsibility in staying silent
00:41:12.600
exactly i mean this guy got a hundred thousand followers by posting islamic yeah like almost
00:41:18.140
jihadi stuff like okay you know you could have mentioned it so authorities there are reports that
00:41:25.840
he's he was an asylum seeker whose application got rejected
00:41:29.600
like how are you shocked yeah does that even mean anything now though if it gets rejected because
00:41:37.120
you hear about them getting rejected three or four times before they go on to do this or so what so
00:41:40.800
if it gets rejected what does that actually mean because it doesn't mean that they've got to leave no
00:41:44.160
it means i get to live in germany forever so it's just like unofficial acceptance yeah the issue is that
00:41:50.480
yeah the issue is that um they're the people who govern germany and and europe and i would say also
00:41:57.200
the uk they don't care about the law they just have a really weird it's like a lynching movie they
00:42:03.200
try to interpret it their own way so for instance echr article 8 doesn't preclude deportations it says
00:42:10.720
all or there are all of the people have the right to private and and public life subject to
00:42:18.240
considerations of national security and public safety so it's they have a really weird way of
00:42:25.040
yeah but also the deportation orders are like milk they expire at some point so they expire
00:42:31.360
and then they do nothing they don't enforce the law right so they say here farad n was reportedly
00:42:36.320
known by local police for drugs and theft and is believed to have accelerated this vehicle into the
00:42:41.680
crowd of a thousand strikers at around 30 miles per hour according to swiss public publication blick
00:42:48.160
terrorism experts are investigating the suspect and there are indications of an extremist background
00:42:53.680
anyone foreign who commits a crime should just be deported so he applied for asylum in 2016
00:43:00.880
when he arrived in germany and that was rejected and they say however the afghan reportedly received
00:43:06.400
a so-called toleration permit from the general federal office for migration and refugees which
00:43:12.000
meant that his deportation was suspended until 2023 when he got a residence and work permit until april
00:43:19.040
2025 why it's just we don't want you here but we're not going to get rid of you and they say it is
00:43:25.600
understood that farad n worked for a security service and participated in bodybuilding competitions
00:43:31.280
in his free time he regularly shared pictures of fitness journey with his more than a hundred thousand
00:43:37.200
followers across instagram and tiktok right so it's yet again another failure of the migration policies of
00:43:47.200
european nations and again the same tone deaf reaction but we have an even more tone deaf reaction here
00:43:53.120
by leftists and i think that really leftists are how should i say it's just a just very problematic
00:44:02.480
ideology and evil ideology yeah because they claim to care about social ideals but they don't care about
00:44:10.400
people and i think that says it all they don't care about anything and what happened here the family
00:44:17.680
and friends of the the victims gathered to make a protest and they actually said no perhaps the policy
00:44:25.600
of open borders yeah doesn't have good consequences for our people and let us say they were a leftist trade
00:44:34.640
union it's not just saying that they they were leftists they suffered the consequences of the
00:44:42.720
policies that they did and the friends and family of of the victims support they lamented and the far
00:44:49.920
left militant extremists took the streets of munich and intimidated them and started calling them fascists
00:44:56.320
it's just incredible isn't it left-wing policy left-wing consequence then leftists shouting fascists at you
00:45:02.160
yeah absolutely sufferable i think this shows in humanity on another level because okay you you know what
00:45:10.800
i stand for and obviously i i'm very much anti-left but there is there is a world of difference between
00:45:18.000
going and screaming fascists at you know people who have different opinions than you have yeah and quite
00:45:25.680
another to do it to people who grieve about their families and are scared about their families at
00:45:33.040
when they are grieving yes and especially they're supposed to do it yeah yeah especially they're
00:45:39.760
supposed to have been friends up until yes yeah yeah you see it at the south port trial didn't you
00:45:44.560
you know you had to come to protest there where there was friends and families and people of the
00:45:47.840
community affected by that terrorist attack and you had the far left turn up to counter protest them
00:45:53.600
outside the court yeah this isn't you can't counter protest yes you're just evil yeah and that's the
00:45:59.360
thing um because all else the policy is right that's what they think nothing can touch it and and
00:46:08.480
anything that does impact you've got to call them brandon fascist exactly there's no number of people
00:46:14.800
that need to die before they change their mind because the concept of trial and error is foreign to them
00:46:20.720
and i want to end with another note which actually supports what we have been saying here in the
00:46:25.680
last minutes this group left x on last august they made an announcement and they say that we
00:46:34.240
are leaving x because of due to increasing negativity the unfriendly climate and the new owner elon musk
00:46:40.240
were leaving this platform so 146 views yes but what but what i want to say is that there are people who are
00:46:48.080
even even leftists okay they they shield themselves from the world they cut themselves yeah they cut
00:46:54.960
communication from the world and their policies have real life consequences so that new that new
00:47:00.480
platform blue sky should be called blue sky sky sky sky sky sky because it's just an echo chamber of
00:47:05.520
lefties exactly yes yeah and that you know this is happening in the uk as well my mp carolyn harris the one
00:47:12.080
who regularly falls asleep in the commons you've probably seen her purple glasses looks a little bit like
00:47:16.080
day met now yeah she's she's left you know she left x because she can't you know the abuse that she's
00:47:22.080
been getting which is actual just normal criticism as you get as an mp is too much and she's gone you
00:47:27.600
know not not available or not happy to accept scrutiny yeah it's just i don't want people to be ran over
00:47:33.440
by cars i just don't want it racist yeah you're right uh uh oh hock uh thank you very much for the
00:47:43.360
donation much appreciated um right let's uh let's move on yep yep so we're gonna talk about today
00:47:50.880
something that um is quite you know it's local to us but it's affected the whole of the uk at the moment
00:47:57.040
which is the political prisoners people being taken up for hurty words online where you know people are just
00:48:03.440
expressing an opinion but we're going to focus on three examples because they're closest to us
00:48:07.760
it's more specifically one being jamie michael jamie has been you know all over the media at the moment
00:48:13.280
he's been on gb news a couple of times his solicitor has as well but it's you know whenever you get on
00:48:18.800
onto gb news you know five ten minutes is what you get and this story starts in august or end july last
00:48:24.560
year after the south port um terrorist attack so there was three people arrested first of all two of them
00:48:32.240
went guilty through pressure from the duty solicitor and one jamie michael went not guilty and we spoke
00:48:39.520
to jamie quite a lot leading up to this um the the case actually from well as soon as he found he's
00:48:45.360
arrested he was in touch with his his partner and we're speaking to his partner and he you know what
00:48:49.520
he is saying is absolutely correct i'm not going to go guilty and say that i did this when you know
00:48:53.760
inciting racial hatred i'm not having out of my name when i didn't do that um but we'll look at
00:48:58.560
quickly the first two i don't know if that's um yeah there we go so let me just load it up there
00:49:04.720
so three men charged with insight in racial hatred so you've got it here three men from tonapandi have
00:49:10.240
been charged with publishing threatening material on a facebook account intending to stir up religious
00:49:14.240
hatred contrary to the public order act 1986 and then it gives them the name garen boys 43 jamie michael
00:49:19.680
45 and a 40 year old daffron williams uh all appeared at merthor crown court um garrett
00:49:25.680
boys and daffron williams pleaded guilty and they were due to be sentenced then and then jamie michael
00:49:30.640
pled not guilty so what we'll do we'll go on to the the next one there um there we go perfect so
00:49:37.520
this is the the first one admitted uh stirring up racial hatred online and you know what what he got
00:49:44.080
for that then you know he got sentenced i believe it was three years i think they both got sentenced for
00:49:49.200
to three years you know and and this is given the fact that a lot of them were told if you go guilty
00:49:56.160
you probably just get suspended sentence this is your first offense you haven't done anything
00:49:59.440
go guilty you know it takes off set your sentence anyway it goes down good with the judge they did
00:50:04.320
and they got sentenced to to three years um it's the sort of thing that is this because of the south
00:50:09.440
port uh massacre yeah yeah response to the south in in response absolutely i forgot to mention that so
00:50:14.000
thank you but that's okay so i've been following this particular case but this is this is going to be
00:50:18.080
exactly the pattern that has happened with all of the other rioters that have just been sent straight
00:50:21.920
down two years in jail for either something you know you were standing near a riot or you posted
00:50:26.960
something on social media great to see someone like no i'm not guilty and i'm not gonna just cop to
00:50:31.520
yeah yeah like you say i don't want that on my name and this i knew i knew it would have just been
00:50:36.400
terrible advice from all because it would have so many people who just you know they've never seen
00:50:40.000
the inside of a courtroom they've never spoken to a lawyer they don't know anything about the legal
00:50:43.440
system why would they they're normal people they don't break the law you know and so the first
00:50:47.600
time they've come into contact with it it's like oh just just you know you get to spend sense no
00:50:51.760
you're going down because you trust the person you trust your legal representation to be doing what's
00:50:56.000
right for you but unfortunately it it's it does appear that they you know that just has not happened
00:51:01.680
you know it seems to be that the advice given to these duty solicitors is get them to go guilty get
00:51:06.720
them to go guilty make an example of them yeah so there was the next one then um which is yeah this one
00:51:13.760
so daffron williams you know that this this is one of the guys who um who pled guilty so he was
00:51:20.160
sentenced he's gone down for uh three years and then what for what posting things on social media
00:51:25.600
posting things on social media some of them you know they have you know a bit silly one of them
00:51:30.000
is you know mentioned about burning down mosques and you know yeah you can understand that yeah that's
00:51:34.640
a silly thing to say shouldn't have said it but no offenses and three years in prison
00:51:39.760
yeah you know off the bat like that it could be a bit harsh you know i have a question that i
00:51:44.480
appreciate if you can't answer maybe you know maybe we don't have access to it but are these people
00:51:52.240
incarcerated and imprisoned in let's say prisons with with uh let's say uh worse uh convicts and
00:52:00.640
criminals yes yeah so it's not just let's say economic crime no no no no so a lot of these yeah
00:52:06.960
you're absolutely right except if you if you're a lefty and if you're a lefty you can do that
00:52:12.880
and you can be well yeah he got suspended centers didn't he he he's he's out yeah yeah he's out he's
00:52:19.120
not on remand and yet every every every person that is on what i would say a normal person or on the
00:52:27.040
right has been remanded yeah it's because it's a two-tier system so yeah yeah literally it's because
00:52:33.360
we're being oppressed it's a perfect example of it you know you can make your jones though
00:52:37.600
labor can't be jones yeah yeah absolutely and suspend now it's adjourned till september
00:52:43.040
in the hope that everyone forgets it yeah that's gonna let it go away yeah yeah absolutely um and
00:52:48.560
then obviously so you've got these two gentlemen um that did go guilty they are inside at the moment
00:52:53.680
and you know they're looking i think it's may time they're looking at you know they could be
00:52:57.760
released obviously with with it being half a sentence so you know the time is passing but
00:53:02.960
the question is still there should they be in a cell and i think the answer lies in the you know
00:53:08.320
this was tried and tested then through jamie and his legal representation and his court battle
00:53:13.200
to show that well you know chances are no they shouldn't be in jail you know so if we move on to
00:53:18.160
the um yeah the next one again sorry we skipped this one so mandanized stirring racial hatred on
00:53:24.880
facebook so this is um jamie michael and i thought i had them all loaded on my screen but they're not
00:53:30.320
there but so jamie went in he was in the um let's just say when he was arrested first of all so he was
00:53:37.840
arrested on the friday we've seen the video because we were in court we were there we watched all the
00:53:43.440
the body cam footage the police turns up and they say you know it's nothing to worry about you know we
00:53:48.400
just want to have a chat okay no problem then they say you're under arrest we've got to go into
00:53:52.640
custody and jamie's like what custody you know how long am i going to be there for oh not long
00:53:57.280
don't worry not long so you know in your mind never been in problem with the police before you look at
00:54:01.520
a policeman he's saying you're not going to be long you think i'm not going to worry about nothing to
00:54:05.040
worry about but and you can see why they're doing this because the average british person feels that
00:54:10.160
the state isn't their enemy and so they think oh if i cooperate the person i'm dealing with will
00:54:14.960
be happy that i've cooperated and everything will just go very smoothly because i feel like i've done
00:54:18.400
nothing wrong and i'll be treated very fairly not the case not the case absolutely not the case and
00:54:23.120
and it's you know they just want to get them in to the prison because once you once you're in and
00:54:28.480
you get in process that you you've got no control nothing so jamie then was held um in until the
00:54:35.840
sunday so he spent from friday uh afternoon until until monday actually because that's when they'd have
00:54:42.160
to hold him for court so he spent that amount of time in custody anyway and if anybody has ever
00:54:46.160
been in the custody suite they're awful you know it's torture it yeah it is you know it is we've
00:54:52.960
been in one of them we we spent 30 odd hours you covered it when we were arrested for that
00:54:56.800
migrant and migrant the vaccine place i took the fifth yes but you know again we were not guilty
00:55:03.120
we fought it went not guilty so just for anybody uh who doesn't know but leading up to that court case
00:55:10.320
you had so much pressure put on jamie things like you need to go guilty or you need to consider you
00:55:15.600
might don't have to think about this to take off the third other people are going down for it
00:55:19.760
then they started saying things like you could be looking at seven years you you know this is
00:55:24.400
possible terrorism related seven years um you've got uh we we may have to bring in your partner
00:55:31.360
so his his girlfriend may have to bring her in as a you know accessory or you know guilty by
00:55:37.200
association and they do all this so and when you're in a custody suite that's all you've got is your own
00:55:41.600
thoughts and he's sitting there he's got a nine-year-old daughter who is um disabled um
00:55:47.920
who has learning difficulties and he's the sitting there thinking i'm gonna go to prison if if i don't
00:55:54.880
go if i go not guilty we could all go to prison and then that child is left without their mother and
00:56:01.840
a father they've been intimidating yeah yeah and anybody who's got children will know that that sort
00:56:07.600
of thing would scare the life of you you know that it would absolutely the thought of not seeing your
00:56:11.920
children and even the mother being taken away and not knowing what's going to happen to that child
00:56:16.800
is terrifying and it's the pressure you know that ultimately pushes them into going right okay i'll go
00:56:22.880
guilty just to get it done with and and hope for the best um he was then in court and he said not
00:56:29.200
guilty he thought no i'm not not having this i'm not accepting it i'm gonna have to i know it might
00:56:34.000
cause more problems but i'm gonna have to go not guilty because he's you know he's got morals you
00:56:37.440
know absolutely i love it i i know that being honest and doing the right thing might cause more
00:56:42.880
problems like well there's the problem there yeah exactly exactly that so he went not guilty and they
00:56:48.960
decided then this was back in august and what they decided to do was um well ultimately they wanted to
00:56:56.080
hold him on remand so they they put him in prison so he went not guilty and they said right well you
00:57:00.800
obviously are you know a risk you could end up posting another video online and that could cause
00:57:06.880
more problems whatever but they wanted to hold him from august till february so and for a facebook
00:57:13.280
post seven months yeah and don't forget all the time the offending video was allowed to be still
00:57:22.160
remain on facebook yeah that's how bad it was still there now it didn't breach community standards on
00:57:26.880
facebook and that says something in itself yeah yeah but and it's still there now but they're
00:57:31.440
obviously in the eyes of the law not so good so i know we've got the video so it's just a small part
00:57:35.760
of the video but this is the type of thing that jamie was saying and we've stolen it off gb news so you
00:57:40.960
know cheers but this is the type of thing that he was um that he was saying in the video the one's
00:57:45.840
being lost and five still critical okay um and that's the main reason really why i'm making this video
00:57:54.000
we couldn't make a video about three months ago and i warned that this was this type of thing was
00:58:00.080
going to start happening we as a community should not let any of these type people into our valley okay
00:58:07.840
we shouldn't let any of these migrants who've just come into the country okay settle you in the
00:58:16.000
valleys we need to be on to the councillors we need to be on to the politicians to make sure this
00:58:22.480
doesn't happen because getting bats and knives and stuff and going doing what they're doing that's
00:58:26.720
not what i'm talking about i'm talking about doing things the right way
00:58:30.320
okay petitioning his councillors yeah going seeing the councillors the mp the ams i i would
00:58:37.760
like to engage with the democratic process to get the result i think that the community would like
00:58:42.560
please oh you're going to jail son yeah what what on earth is happening absolutely mad yeah and while
00:58:48.960
he was actually on remand so while he was in prison um it was his daughter's birthday and this is you
00:58:54.400
know these are the parts that get me because you know you you miss your kid's birthday it's it's not
00:58:59.840
nice and his daughter like i said she's got learning difficulties um and you know she was trying
00:59:04.000
to negotiate with her mum you know if i give you all my presents back can i just have my daddy
00:59:07.760
and you know him having to sing happy birthday down the phone to to his daughter well she's not
00:59:13.440
she didn't know where he was but she's having to listen to you know it's awful right and this
00:59:18.080
is you know and it was we'll get into it but it was not guilty in in i would say record time
00:59:23.600
um also his partner's birthday so it was his partner's birthday on the day he was supposed to be
00:59:27.600
released i was speaking to his partner i was like well that's lovely you know because at least
00:59:31.280
you're going to get to spend the day with jamie on your birthday that's fantastic supposed to be
00:59:35.120
released in the morning um there was some mix-up so she then had to spend all day waiting for him
00:59:40.160
and he weren't released until the evening i think it's like seven o'clock at night i'm sure that was
00:59:43.520
an accident absolutely you know must have been must have been now then he went to court uh jamie served
00:59:49.600
three weeks he was granted bail on the second application and i do believe that was down to public
00:59:54.640
pressure luckily you know when these things go online x now is is so powerful it kind of forces
01:00:01.760
the hand of politicians the prison service things like that we put out um you know the fact that he
01:00:08.240
was being held on remand at all is ridiculous his daughter's birthday and you know speaking to his
01:00:13.200
partner and then that went everywhere you know we had yourself sharing it um obviously tommy robinson's
01:00:19.520
ex was sharing it's got a million followers so it it forces the the the hand really of the people
01:00:27.040
they can't get away with it you know if if this wasn't as broadcast on social media he would probably
01:00:31.520
have spent all christmas and up until the trial in in prison this is the reason why we need to shut
01:00:37.920
down social media yeah yeah didn't trump have to intervene against starmer recently about that and
01:00:43.680
i saw a headline that basically trump stopped starmer being so censorious yeah yeah it's just
01:00:49.360
like god we are so lost yeah absolutely and i was having this um debate with someone and they
01:00:54.720
they were saying you know but if trump gets involved he's going to impose tariffs on the uk and it's
01:00:58.400
going to make our life harder and i was like well ultimately it'll make it better though we're getting
01:01:01.520
sent to jail posting our opinions yeah yeah social media bro yeah absolutely and it's you know who cares
01:01:07.600
about you know if things are going to cost more okay well just you know scrimp and save a little bit
01:01:11.520
you know live a little bit more to your means if the long goal is things will get better in the end
01:01:16.880
because you know ultimately where are we going otherwise exactly with this sort of thing great
01:01:21.920
i'll get cheap groceries but i have to i can never express myself and also the glaring double standard of
01:01:28.720
the the government allowing and permitting yeah literally you know all kinds of incitements to
01:01:35.840
violence coming from particular people on the on yeah yeah yeah excuse that it is somehow a kind
01:01:43.840
of suppressed sentiment yeah yeah yeah absolutely and you know i think like in court you could see
01:01:50.320
for a start this like we've got a chief inspector or ex-chief inspector that guides us a lot right and
01:01:55.200
he was sending us the cps guidelines and what the cps would be looking at when accepting to take
01:02:00.320
something to court and normally the police have to battle with the cps and try you know we accept it
01:02:04.400
accept it here they didn't meet any of the guidance nothing there was nothing in there
01:02:08.640
whatsoever that said that this should have even gone to trial never mind the treatment that he got
01:02:12.480
being held on remand for for all that time and in court you could see the prosecution was really
01:02:17.680
really struggling to build a case all that they had from this video is he after the south port
01:02:24.240
terrorist attack he was he'd say things like these people talk and he's and he's talking about and
01:02:29.840
he says in the video extremists people who have been radicalized and he says it over and over again
01:02:34.480
and you know using words like and i'm gonna have to swear because it's quoting but
01:02:38.240
psychopaths that's what that's literally what the prosecution had that them two words and what their
01:02:44.720
goal was was to say that he's talking about every single immigrant that's what they tried to do and
01:02:49.200
tried to paint i suspect also they did some mind reading and said that at the end when he's talking
01:02:53.760
about doing the things the right way yeah the right way they say no that's not what you really yeah he
01:02:59.360
actually meant do things the wrong way you know obviously yeah he literally said it in contra
01:03:02.800
distinction to doing things the wrong way he just yeah yeah absolutely correct and you know something
01:03:08.000
he brought up in court when he was and and this is what he was referring to when he was saying these
01:03:12.000
people we shouldn't be letting these people in our valleys um even and he was giving an example like
01:03:17.040
we've seen riots in leeds we've seen the manchester airport less yeah the the race riot between the
01:03:23.360
hindus and the muslims yeah yeah why do we want this yeah exactly and then you've got the army
01:03:28.480
officer stabbed on his doorstep you had that as well which was all brought up and he was using these
01:03:32.640
examples to say we don't want these people in our country but it was painted the other way you know
01:03:37.040
but just to give people a little reminder these is a little video video two um from leeds and
01:03:42.320
manchester and and when you can in comparison to the riots you saw over here you know this is just a
01:03:49.440
and when you don't want to bring this to a nice sleepy welsh village
01:04:09.120
quality of the valley is just disrupted by this yeah and and that's it you know it just shows there
01:04:14.880
was two you know the the manchester airport you got people actually breaking the nose of police
01:04:20.160
officers and being allowed to from pressure violence you know threats of violence from outside
01:04:27.520
of they were released but then you got someone like jamie who literally said nothing and he's he's
01:04:32.880
looking at having the the buck thrown at him now um court obviously went out went on the jamie took the
01:04:40.400
stand you could see that they had nothing that they could throw at him because his
01:04:44.640
character and i've got to mention the the character references that he got in court
01:04:50.000
you know and we're talking ex-servicemen people who you know jamie does massage therapy and
01:04:54.720
rehabilitation and ptsd therapy so he's genuinely good guy he built the community center up in the
01:05:01.920
area he took it over they were going to lose their funding he took it over off his own back with no
01:05:06.240
funding himself put judo classes mma classes dance classes and now it's thriving you know and that's i
01:05:11.760
i think what every community well which would need and what would want so when these references
01:05:16.640
came up he's actually a pillar of the community and everyone comes out to support an actual local
01:05:21.040
hero yeah you know he's got ex-servicemen who you know amputees as well who he helps and they all
01:05:26.720
suffered when he was when he was away so it was always going to be a knock guilty you know the jury
01:05:34.000
retired and within 17 minutes um it they came back in and you know they it had there's no way that
01:05:41.920
said all them jurors were going and in 17 minutes say guilty no way so we we knew it was going to be
01:05:47.920
not good i mean it was less than that because it takes five minutes to settle down and and have a brief
01:05:53.840
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah no absolutely right so yeah and then you've got the obviously the twitter
01:05:59.280
post i put this one up just so you can see the the amount of views so i don't know if i can scroll
01:06:03.040
down uh on that but just you know it's that it's short you know the the world was watching this and
01:06:10.080
it just goes to show that if it wasn't for things like x oh yeah nobody would know about it because
01:06:15.520
the media the bbc and the original um when the original arrests were made they were making out that
01:06:21.200
he was a racist in intent on stirring racial hatred which obviously wasn't the case yeah um and then
01:06:26.960
you got the daily mail one uh next was you gonna say something there yeah just that he is highly
01:06:32.480
decorated he's he's got three although he's got three medals there's two clasps which means he's
01:06:37.680
been back to that twice yeah yeah yeah and a lot of it is you know humanitarian stuff sierra leone
01:06:43.920
sierra leone you know he's done a lot of you know a lot of like humanitarian stuff rebuilding you know
01:06:49.600
and stuff so he's his character is is impeccable they picked the wrong guy well they picked the wrong
01:06:54.000
marine well yeah yeah so and then you get you know daily mail you know their swings and roundabouts
01:07:00.720
really extra marine is cleared in just 70 minutes of stirring up racial hatred on facebook following
01:07:05.440
southport murders after spending 20 days remanded in prison and that's the only apart from gb news
01:07:10.400
that's the only headline that came out that was that was that was similar to that um jamie was
01:07:17.200
fortunate in a way that he had a he had a fair judge and that's all he wanted that's all anybody wants
01:07:22.960
is a fair judge it's something you don't see very often but jamie was also represented by the free
01:07:28.400
speech union his his barrister or lawyer adam king was absolutely remarkable in court you know you could
01:07:35.520
see he you know he he he understood exactly what was happening he worked for the free speech union so
01:07:42.720
he's got that interest as well of free speech and you know he he played an absolute blinder uh in the
01:07:48.800
trial but he was then invited on to gb news uh which is the next video video three um and then it'll uh
01:07:56.400
basically you know it's just a small segment of that and just to get his opinion on the free
01:08:01.280
speech side of this do you think this was just an egregious kind of trampling on on someone's right
01:08:06.880
to freedom of speech yes i do i think it was an egregious trampling on his rights to uh uh free speech
01:08:15.200
um i should say we got not lucky but we were fortunate uh in that we had a a fair judge a very
01:08:23.760
fair judge um and a fair prosecutor and obviously a fair jury that doesn't always happen right
01:08:31.920
and i think the trouble with charging someone like uh jamie michael for saying the things that he said is
01:08:38.960
that it could go horribly wrong do you think that there are people in prison now for certainly
01:08:44.800
speech-related offenses after the southport massacre who had they pleaded not guilty could well have
01:08:50.960
avoided prison undoubtedly yes do you think they were pressurized into pleading guilty in some senses
01:08:57.680
i know of um one or two at least decisions to remand a defendant in custody uh which would not have
01:09:09.920
been taken that is to say they would not have been remanded in custody in normal circumstances
01:09:15.440
and i think that is likely to have weighed very heavily on those defendants uh when it comes to when
01:09:22.800
it came to deciding whether or not to plead guilty because when you've been taken from your sofa to a
01:09:31.120
police cell to a court cell to a prison cell all in the space of 48 hours for something that you
01:09:38.000
wouldn't have thought was an offense uh the feeling that the system is against you and you're not going
01:09:44.320
to win no matter what uh is likely to be overwhelming and so you're more likely to take the discount for
01:09:50.160
pleading guilty and and uh take it on the chin rather than try and fight it and that's you know
01:09:56.240
that's a really sad state to be in you know because there are people who are innocent who did go guilty
01:10:03.360
under advice from their legal representation who are now still serving thousands of them yeah well you've
01:10:09.760
got you know the likes then of peter lynch i was about to say yeah peter lynch took the ultimate sacrifice
01:10:14.720
didn't he yes yeah yeah absolutely um the so the biggest thing for me obviously jamie got the not
01:10:21.440
guilty verdict and you know that is i suppose um justice in that instance but you know the effect
01:10:30.720
from august until february and the worry and the concern and the you know the missing out on everything
01:10:37.600
that he he did it isn't justice because there should be justice for the people who made this
01:10:44.160
claim and a lot of people are asking well who were the complainants who actually was it just the police
01:10:49.920
had seen this video and said oh we need to have a word with this doubtless it was absolutely doubtless
01:10:54.720
it was actually his politician um senate member his representative buffy williams who dobbed him into the
01:11:03.600
oh my god him and the two previous who are inside now the issue is that governments want to
01:11:10.640
use this community in a communicative way they just because they just care about images especially after
01:11:15.600
the after the trustee that was committed and the events that followed so they literally wanted
01:11:23.200
the news that people pled guilty yes that's exactly right in headlines so people will read this and
01:11:29.120
this okay yeah maybe they were guilty in order to plead yeah yeah yeah there's there's three things
01:11:34.240
to this as far as i'm concerned one is when starmer said they will be remanded they will be put into
01:11:41.680
custody they will be prison was that an instruction and of course you've then got to look at the solicitor
01:11:47.680
general that we've got whose um um affinity with people like jerry adams and others um he doesn't fight
01:11:57.760
for britain he fights for everything against britain and so you've then got that but in the socialist
01:12:05.920
republic of wales the the police are the starsy and it's that's north wales police that's south wales
01:12:12.880
dovet powys and newport and the cps in wales are the same so they they don't care whether there is
01:12:21.760
literally nothing of a case if their instruction is to jail them to put them in prison to incarcerate
01:12:29.120
them they will by crook they will yeah yeah and it's and and starmer said that that um uh that wales
01:12:38.160
is the blueprint he did yeah he did this is yeah that's the lever that they want um you know so this
01:12:45.760
this politician she's a senate member so she's not like a you know counselor it's not like she she's
01:12:50.960
you know big politician in wales she's jamie's politician the ms for the ronda and she was the
01:12:58.000
one who instructed a communications officer to make the call to the police incredible that she'd admit
01:13:03.200
that in public well she she would have loved it if it stayed under the carpet but luckily we were in
01:13:09.600
court and we were able to sit there and listen and when we when i heard that this was this was a call
01:13:14.800
that came in from buffy williams senate but i was thinking wow that that's a that's a big slip that's
01:13:20.640
just come out there but then we found out that it was herbie and the the other two as well she did
01:13:25.280
put this statement out because what happened then is obviously we put it out this is a political arrest
01:13:30.240
this was a politically motivated arrest and and and this senate member this politician is using the
01:13:35.120
police as a political tool that obviously went went viral over over x and and surprisingly facebook
01:13:41.600
a lot of people complained a lot of people putting in um you know letters complaints to
01:13:46.560
the um to whoever it was it comes to what were they called gone up my head now the standards committee
01:13:52.880
or whatever whatever they called loads of complaints have gone in about her she was forced to put in a
01:13:57.520
reply i won't read it all um but it does say uh let me see transparency it says somewhere along in in here
01:14:06.240
that she was actually um she had complaints come in yeah she said my team received several concerns
01:14:13.520
from uh received concerns from several residents regarding the contents of a video posted on
01:14:18.000
facebook sure they did not true absolutely not true this wasn't mentioned in court yeah the only
01:14:23.760
names that was mentioned in court is the people who made the complaint and that was the person who
01:14:27.600
made the complaint and who instructed them to make the complaint and it's the communications officer
01:14:31.760
can't remember his name now but and then biff buffy williams who told him to make the
01:14:34.960
complaint so that's a lie yeah that is that is a lie and and uh let's not let's not forget
01:14:41.600
housing the economy the nhs and education that is the brief for her not law yeah not police
01:14:51.760
and so trolling people and so and we know how we know how um work shy these people are if you write
01:14:58.480
anything and you might be just an inch outside her postcode she'll say oh no you've got to go and see
01:15:03.120
another person uh and so why would she interfere on something that's not a part of her brief yeah
01:15:10.160
she would have a standard letter saying we look after the economy housing educator or we run we run
01:15:16.720
these into the ground sorry we run these into the ground very well actually and and that's outside our
01:15:22.640
remit so so she's she she tells lies uh and and she wouldn't know which which way up or down was
01:15:29.200
yeah being some sort of moral busy body doing it yeah yeah yeah and you know obviously what happens
01:15:34.400
then is that there's a backlash on this post this post gets deleted her facebook gets deleted her ex
01:15:38.560
gets deleted and she's just non-contactable now so she's just you can't speak to this lady
01:15:42.960
anymore buffy buffy the free speech slayer yeah that's yeah yeah but then um obviously that that's
01:15:49.760
this pick and then we've got the article then that came out by from nation comry we'll just skim
01:15:54.160
through this really quickly because nation we call them nation scumry because this is basically you
01:15:58.000
know they are funded by the senate you know i think it's 80 percent of their funding comes direct from
01:16:03.680
the senate they got an 80 000 pound deal 20 000 from usa yeah yeah it's i don't know i would not be
01:16:11.120
surprised at all but what what happens is she you know poor poor buffy you know she misbehaved or elizabeth
01:16:18.400
or elizabeth is a real name yeah oh vile social media abuse yeah yeah and none of it is vile social
01:16:24.960
media abuse it's it's i i would say you know from what i've seen there may be some things that people
01:16:29.840
have said silly things i don't know but from what i've seen it's very fair for people to question
01:16:34.400
someone who stepped outside of their box to interfere politically you know with with an arrest which
01:16:40.480
isn't right but you know just uh we won't don't need to scroll through it all we got a nice mention
01:16:45.760
because we're the ones stirring it all other than the fact that this is martin shipman he wakes up in
01:16:50.160
the morning um with a big stalker on thinking voice of wales because every headline he has to it
01:16:58.400
could be about knitting but he'd have to put in and those right wingers at voice of wales yeah he keeps
01:17:03.520
saying yeah he keeps saying if you're a right-wing welshman go and support voice of wales yeah
01:17:09.120
that's literally why the the welsh senate got them to de-platform them from youtube because they
01:17:14.400
heard the name of like oh no what if welsh people start listening to them and enjoy it
01:17:19.760
so that's exactly it if you're a welshman go support voice of wales yeah yeah and actually the funny
01:17:24.080
thing is he mentions that we're we're now big in llanelli and swansea it not not not the hall of
01:17:31.440
wales we have a larger membership than the whole of the labor party following we don't have a larger
01:17:37.120
membership sorry we're not uh we're not uh reform are we
01:17:44.160
um so then you know this you know what i will say about this is that it is good that you know they
01:17:49.040
do quote us which is good because i think they do this sort of thing so it's under the arrest uh
01:17:54.400
section which i think a you guys are the actual opposition in wales aren't you yeah that's the
01:17:58.880
thing well our twitter tag is the only opposition in wales well there we go so because that is pretty
01:18:04.720
much it but even the conservatives on this at the end yeah put a quote in saying it's terrible that
01:18:10.640
she's been scumbags absolute scumbags i can't wait for these red and blue parties to be wiped
01:18:16.880
out the wales in next year so you got here um spent three weeks on a man in custody mr morgan said on a
01:18:22.800
video jamie's daughter's birthday was happening while he was inside and all that poor little girl wanted
01:18:27.760
on her birthday was her daddy and buffy williams and the communications officers stole that from her
01:18:32.640
uh this has been justice for justice uh justice has been served for jamie there now needs to be a
01:18:37.440
lot of questions asked about the senate member and how using how her using the police as a political
01:18:42.400
tool because she was concerned that jamie was going to be able to galvanize people in the community
01:18:46.720
and that they have the same concerns that he did and the vast vast majority of the uk does uh i can
01:18:52.080
always say voice of wales are going to be asking questions this senate member buffy williams
01:18:56.240
labor and why she thinks it's appropriate to use the police force in a political way because she did
01:19:00.480
not like what was being said this is this is his senate member his representative jamie michael's
01:19:06.000
representative is the one who ratted him out to the police and now it appears she was absolutely
01:19:10.240
wrong to do so so it's nice that they've quoted that because i think that who wouldn't agree with
01:19:15.440
that you know who wouldn't think well you know if she stepped them over the mark she surely should be
01:19:20.080
held accountable people who hate the welsh people and want to see them destroyed in every way shape
01:19:24.160
or form people who want to bring about communist government yeah disagree with that uh normal people who
01:19:29.280
would be called right wing from now on would completely agree so it's good they got your quote
01:19:33.280
yeah yeah so i'm pleased with that i we i'm conscious of time but i want to play a little bit
01:19:37.680
of this video it's just to show because we sat down then with jamie and we were you know we were able to
01:19:42.960
actually go through things with him and you know here we asked him just you know what you do with
01:19:47.680
for the community so we won't play all of it but we'll maybe go through half i i just you know in my line of work i do
01:19:54.880
help a lot of people like um help people with their um so what i'm looking for a mobility or i'm one of
01:20:05.120
my actual best friend led a nasty car accident 17 years ago and i've been you know helping him since
01:20:11.360
since the day was uh you know since the day it happened he's um he's an ex-paratrooper he was um you
01:20:18.080
know he's a very fit guy he's pt um pt instructor in the paratroopers he was captain of the boxing team
01:20:24.720
and he's my best friend and i help him um i help him with his walk-in i do a bit of massages i take
01:20:31.520
him out the veterans he didn't come today because he'd been caught with me all week right um he decided
01:20:36.640
to go to the gym today with with his carer um but if you did come up at another time you'll see i like
01:20:42.560
after we sit around and have a chat at the end then i take him walking and we'll do that a couple
01:20:48.320
of times a week because he just wants to get more mobile he can walk but he walks very slow so we're
01:20:53.440
just working on his speed um and i i got other people um one of my uh customers derek i will i'm
01:21:01.280
with him a couple of times um a couple of times a week and i go to his house massage him and then we go
01:21:06.400
walking over the park again again to try and improve his mobility um one of one of my um guys
01:21:13.760
who they wrote his uh read his reference out in uh in court he's a double amputee at a nasty work
01:21:21.600
accident in work and i go there and help him with his mobility through um through massage because he
01:21:28.800
gets real bad back because he's you know he he walks with a limp with his with his um prosthetic leg
01:21:35.600
and uh you know he does get a lot of back trouble he's he's in his 60s now so he's not uh you know
01:21:42.880
he's not getting any younger and uh you just if i'm not there giving him that back massage every
01:21:48.000
week he's um in fact he's struggled this week now because i haven't been able to do it this week because
01:21:52.560
of the court yeah but he was there with me yesterday when when uh when we had the verdict he was uh
01:22:00.160
you could see the tears in his eyes yeah so yeah i do and i do like this and that one there so you
01:22:06.960
know that just gives you a small idea and people can go on to the to our twitter or x account and
01:22:11.920
watch the full interview there because you know that just goes on and on and you know it gives a
01:22:17.360
a big insight into you know is his mind and what it's like to actually have to go through all that
01:22:23.120
being completely unaware i think the last thing i want to finish on um and i hope i i did that while we
01:22:28.400
were talking so i hope samson's got it there um it's the yeah the gofundme one
01:22:35.360
so what we've been doing is not that one the other one above yeah so what we did because obviously they
01:22:40.400
went through a lot of trouble and you know again like i said when we when i heard about his daughter
01:22:45.600
and you know it does it does get you right and i thought you you can't get that time back you know
01:22:52.080
that daughter is always going to have suffered on her birthday because of this politician so what can we do
01:22:58.400
to try and make up for the time so we decided to make a little gofundme um and you know that that's
01:23:03.840
raised eight thousand three hundred ninety seven pound that and for the people who were saying oh
01:23:08.640
you're trusting dan real money the beneficiary isn't me it's directly to um jamie's partners
01:23:14.320
they are in full control of these funds um so it's nothing to do with me we just set it up and use
01:23:19.920
our platform to promote it and then other platforms have also promoted it as well so if anybody does
01:23:24.960
want to want to chuck a quid in or whatever you can find it on our x account um and i know that
01:23:30.720
they're looking forward to going on a nice holiday as a family so that pretty much ends this segment
01:23:36.320
but you can watch the full interview on our x account okay uh let's go to the video comments

in her book salamander luna mentions the old english poem of sir gawain and the green knight
01:23:58.160
carousing at king arthur's court one christmas a giant of a knight bedecked in green enters the hall and
01:24:03.280
announces he will withstand any blow anyone might deliver so long as he can repay in equal kind
01:24:08.480
silence prompts arthur to upbraid the green knight and accept the challenge but gawain intercedes
01:24:13.120
he beheads the knight and everyone is astonished when the corpse bends down and picks up the head
01:24:17.280
which announces that the repayment will be in one year's time before leaving gawain must make good
01:24:21.920
on the promise and the poem explores him being a true knight yeah the the story of sort of gawain

government was urged by planning inspectors to reject the plans over concerns the influx of workers

01:25:47.280
practice for car manufacturers to save metrics from your car and sell to insurance companies so they

can jack up your rates so if you bought a corvette and take it to a track day that sucks to be you if you
01:25:56.160
sync your cell phone to any modern infotainment system you agree to share all of the data on your
01:25:59.920
cell phone and the in-car microphone to be sold to advertisers nissan claims to track the metric of

the body politic of military elective monarchy is built on four pillars the executive who shall be
01:26:52.160
the reigning monarch hereditary peers frontline combat veterans all the lower house and the
01:26:58.240
citizenry who shall have to earn the ability to vote all of this is based on an original document
01:27:04.320
centering on the bill of rights 1689 that is effectively throughout the anglosphere now being
01:27:10.480
peer-reviewed and with minor tweaks should be ready to become the supreme law of the land
01:27:20.720
back in the heyday when carl was still sargon of a cad and during our or at least my first
01:27:24.800
introduction to how culture impacts politics and vice versa there was a meme it was either a joke
01:27:28.800
imagining a hyperbolic version of our side winning after being driven to absurd lengths or a prophetic
01:27:33.280
exaggeration of the inevitable outcome when our side took off the gloves and just asserted ourselves
01:27:37.680
either way i'm bemused and gleeful we've now reached that promised point with dei being purged
01:27:41.600
the culture shifting in our favor and v even using the phrase to drive home the point i don't think
01:27:45.360
i'm the only one who feels this way why you brought this on yourself yeah there is something very
01:27:53.760
uh very enjoyable about it funny britain could get some of that action yeah anymore so this is for
01:28:02.000
everyone but i'm hoping to get carl's take especially in episode 1088 dan going over the
01:28:06.960
political spectrum reminded me of an issue i encountered when i was writing my game in early
01:28:11.120
2023 specifically how to deal with alignment with the modern push to try and portray all bad guys as
01:28:17.440
just misunderstood and blur the lines between good and evil i wanted a delineation that was a little
01:28:22.720
more intuitive and dare i say objective while i think i found a good solution i'm curious how you'd tackle it
01:28:32.000
can't answer that in like the minute or two left we've got so uh i'll have to save that for another
01:28:36.960
time sorry is there another one or was that the end great um uh well we're almost out of time so
01:28:48.160

01:28:52.880
wales are in town uh lots of other people who um ate us
01:29:02.080
you should you should never pregnantly pause i wouldn't characterize it as a lot
01:29:07.760
um but uh no good good comment on the uh ukraine stuff by omar here uh people have never had to
01:29:13.840
fear being fed into the meat grinder treat war like a sports game with no time limit as long as they don't
01:29:18.160
give up they can't technically lose julia is demanding they keep playing because death isn't
01:29:22.640
part of her moral cost benefit analysis yeah i i really i really kind of vulgar you know it's just
01:29:30.080
like but my liberal ideals like people are dying julia you know tens of thousands every month you know
01:29:36.560
just gotta stop um north fc zuma says guys i think we all know the correct solution is to put the airbags
01:29:43.120
outside of the cars and remove anything hard on them i'm adapting the great wisdom of idris elba's
01:29:47.840
plan to remove the points of knives here completely correct just unbelievable isn't it um
01:29:56.480
the keegan a says have you considered starting up a legal fund to provide support to these cases of
01:30:00.560
average citizens being targeted by the government honestly that's what the free speech union is for
01:30:04.480
uh they they don't charge for the service when they provide the lawyer so basically if you want to
01:30:09.600
be a part of supporting these things in the future like i am going to be a member of the free speech
01:30:13.920
union because if we don't do it who is going to yeah absolutely and you know i could just say i'm
01:30:19.840
happy to say on jamie's behalf he is so so grateful that he was given that opportunity because the legal
01:30:24.320
representation he had beforehand was basically they think one of them didn't watch the video
01:30:28.320
you know free speech union came in and they said we watched it we've watched it multiple times we
01:30:31.840
