00:00:00.020
Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters for the 17th of February 2025.
00:00:05.780
I am joined by Beau and I have the pleasure to introduce Henry Bolton and now I have quite an extensive number of things to say here.
00:00:15.020
So you've had an extensive political career including becoming leader of UKIP and you recently became a member of the SDP.
00:00:29.500
You were a former police officer, you were an author and you've also been appointed an officer of the Order of the British Empire.
00:00:37.780
And I probably missed out some things there as well.
00:00:41.720
We'll be going through the entire podcast schedule listing off all the things but it's very nice to have you here today.
00:00:47.880
Thank you very much, it's a pleasure to be here.
00:00:49.680
And today we're going to be talking about how Britain has become a tyranny beyond parody.
00:00:55.620
Beau's going to be giving us a bit of light relief talking about the real identity of Jacques the Ripper,
00:01:01.580
which as we were saying just before we went on air is a condemnation of the state of politics that this is the relief talking about serial killer.
00:01:09.440
And then we're going to be going on to how the aesthetic of the UK with a Y and two O's is that of a dystopia.
00:01:21.900
And this is of course looking at how multicultural phenomenon has influenced the aesthetic of Britain
00:01:30.140
and changed it to something other than the Britain that we know and love.
00:01:37.220
So I'm going to be talking today about what it amounts to a large degree of judicial activism I feel
00:01:46.560
as well as some general things that I see as a form of tyranny from other branches of the state.
00:01:54.060
And I'm going to start off right away with this one.
00:02:03.200
It's a form of satire in a different age and a better time that a failed asylum seeker can stay in the UK
00:02:09.580
because she joined a terror group rather than, you know, she has her asylum claim rejected because of this.
00:02:20.240
So she's a Nigerian migrant who had a case thrown out eight times before succeeding with a claim that even the judge himself admitted was not honest,
00:02:31.600
which one has to wonder why he allowed it in the first place then.
00:02:35.960
She had become involved with the indigenous people of Biafra pretty much seemingly only in order to create a claim for asylum.
00:02:45.220
And she came to the UK in 2011 and has been here applying for asylum ever since.
00:02:54.040
And the group itself is a separatist group that has been blamed for acts of violence against the Nigerian state,
00:03:00.040
which shouldn't necessarily be Britain's problem.
00:03:02.920
But they're classed as a terrorist organization in Nigeria, but they're not prescribed in the UK.
00:03:08.040
And it's a bit of a loophole whereby she can now be protected because if we deport her back to her home country,
00:03:15.220
then she will face persecution according to human rights lawyers.
00:03:20.160
However, she's willingly done this to get this asylum claim in the first place.
00:03:28.840
If it's not, you know, she's not, she's doing this for that purpose.
00:03:35.180
And one could, I suspect, criminally perhaps even argue that case, trying to gain some sort of,
00:03:44.080
particularly if she was able to access as a result benefits or any sort of material benefit,
00:03:49.660
then you've got pecuniary advantage through fraud.
00:03:54.820
But I think that the point here is that there are also people behind this who have clearly advised her,
00:04:03.600
who clearly directed her as to how to avoid the deportation.
00:04:08.480
So we've got people who are actively working against the spirit of the law.
00:04:14.100
There are loopholes in just about every piece of legislation.
00:04:18.000
No piece of legislation, no matter what it's about, can foresee every single set of circumstances.
00:04:25.260
And that's one of the things about common law, really.
00:04:27.320
I mean, you look at the circumstances, you know, just accordingly.
00:04:31.560
But in this particular case, we have got people who do not want to look, lawyers and others,
00:04:37.460
activists who are not looking at what the purpose of the law is,
00:04:41.200
but the actual letter of the law in a rather, as though it's codified law.
00:04:46.960
Now, we've been exposed, without talking about Brexit,
00:04:50.440
to sort of 40 years thereabouts of European Union codified law.
00:04:56.060
So, which is very much, you know, the letter of the law.
00:04:59.660
They don't have the same judicial system as us.
00:05:03.920
And as a result, I think a lot of our lawyers, a lot of our judges, 40 years, that's a career, pretty much, you know.
00:05:11.260
So, people have entered the legal profession being exposed to European legislation, which is a very different beast.
00:05:19.180
So, it's not about the spirit of the law and what it's there to do.
00:05:23.060
It's about the letter of the law, whereas our tradition is somewhat different.
00:05:26.780
Now, I'm not a lawyer, but that's how I see things as a former police officer and having dealt with the European Union,
00:05:33.320
And so, I think, you know, there is all of that that we've got to unpack as a nation.
00:05:39.480
Do we want law that has a purpose and we respect the aims of that law?
00:05:46.180
Or do we want to simply apply the literal letter of the law?
00:05:54.620
A judge makes a judgment as to whether or not this is right or wrong, ultimately, in our tradition.
00:06:09.320
You go through your training and then you become a judge.
00:06:12.640
You don't have to have the experience because all you've got to be able to do is look it up.
00:06:17.540
Now, that's what we're doing here now, I think.
00:06:19.100
And it's being exploited because, as I say, no law can predict every single set of circumstances.
00:06:27.060
And we see it over and over again, that same application.
00:06:30.960
Plus, of course, we've got the problem here in the UK of the Human Rights Act,
00:06:35.380
which really, you know, linked to the European Convention on Human Rights.
00:06:40.000
And so, we've got all of that to unpack as well.
00:06:42.340
And when people say to me, well, why can't we just do what the Americans do
00:06:46.780
and, you know, just make a decree that we're going to do X, Y, and Z?
00:06:50.680
Well, the United States never tied itself to these sort of things.
00:06:56.260
It never tied itself to a sort of extra national or sort of higher multilateral form of legislation
00:07:07.580
So, we've got to untangle ourselves from that if we're going to solve these sort of problems.
00:07:11.320
And they are prolific, as I think you're going to maybe touch on some others.
00:07:17.220
So, anyway, that's, you know, not really in a nutshell.
00:07:29.720
Yes, because there's this sort of intellectual sort of urban elite kind of attitude
00:07:35.160
regarding multiculturalism, regarding how society should look in the modern era, you know,
00:07:46.080
So, we've got a lot of work to do if we want to safeguard the British public.
00:07:49.800
I think there is this giant edifice, just this individual Nigerian woman.
00:07:53.300
It's obviously not in our interest to have her in this country.
00:07:57.820
But she's just the tiny pinnacle of the problem, as you say.
00:08:02.520
So, do you think it's too radical or too authoritarian to say,
00:08:09.080
let's look at this giant monster of the NGOs, the activists, the lawyers,
00:08:15.200
the nature of the judiciary itself, the questions of actual jurisprudence.
00:08:19.520
What should law be, and what do we need to do to actually prevent us
00:08:31.340
So, get rid of the Supreme Court, get rid of the ECHR,
00:08:35.180
anything that stands in the way from preventing this sort of thing
00:08:40.420
It all should be looked at, and if needs be, got rid of.
00:08:46.820
And we, I mean, you know, without the Conservative Party in no way,
00:08:52.300
no how, let's get this clear, deserved anybody's votes at the last general election.
00:08:56.920
I mean, they made negligence, incompetence, have run this country right into the ground.
00:09:02.300
However, as I was warning before the general election,
00:09:05.740
be careful, because if Labour get in, particularly if they get a stonking majority,
00:09:14.320
And people were telling me, no, Labour can't be as bad as the Conservatives,
00:09:18.200
Well, we've got Labour, and they are a damn sight worse.
00:09:21.860
We're not going to be able to tackle any of these problems
00:09:26.520
And, yeah, the Conservatives dug us deeper into the hole, I agree,
00:09:30.920
but through negligence and incompetence, as I say,
00:09:32.840
not through deliberate ideological policy, I think.
00:09:36.520
But that's maybe another slightly different discussion.
00:09:39.840
I agree with you that we've got to address all of those things.
00:09:43.020
I agree with you, effectively, what you're saying,
00:09:49.560
The people are sovereign, but Parliament is the representatives of the people,
00:09:53.120
and therefore it is up to them to do democratic bidding.
00:09:57.220
The country is downright angry at this sort of thing.
00:10:02.400
It is not the democratic will of the British people, as exercised in elections
00:10:07.080
or on the streets or in any other way, that this should happen.
00:10:12.320
What they want is this sort of thing like this Nigerian woman,
00:10:19.080
First problem, Parliament, elected representatives need to listen to the people.
00:10:27.760
The second thing, though, is, as I say, it can't happen overnight.
00:10:33.060
Some politicians would have you believe that just having the determination,
00:10:39.800
no, get rid of these people and get rid of the Supreme Court
00:10:49.100
Because we are, we have tied ourselves into these sort of various mechanisms and systems.
00:10:59.920
And pieces of legislation very rarely stand alone,
00:11:06.660
So you've got to untangle yourself from all of this.
00:11:23.940
You can untangle it, but by God, by the end of it,
00:11:32.960
if you've got the vision, the courage, the will,
00:11:36.700
the determination and the political support to do it.
00:11:40.140
And what we've done in the last general election
00:11:50.560
give it a year, 18 months, they'll be out or whatever.
00:11:53.680
They won't because they are not going to vote themselves out.
00:11:56.260
There's no way of getting rid of them at the moment.
00:12:11.920
but I don't think really any political party is yet effective
00:12:47.000
because no politician is putting out there the real facts,
00:12:52.520
So anyway, so you asked a fairly straightforward question
00:13:10.880
Remember, Portugal is supposedly a safe country,
00:13:15.520
You know, people in Britain go on holiday there,
00:13:25.300
this child with special needs, I believe, has autism.
00:13:30.300
as you could argue that it is completely uninhabitable
00:13:41.020
But again, we go back to the letter of the law.
00:14:28.760
because they think the conditions over in Portugal
00:14:44.300
It's about what's in the interest of the British people.
00:14:57.760
not the people who don't have a right to be here.
00:15:02.200
You know, we've got to put the British people first.
00:15:07.960
I mean, yes, Nigel Farage and William Clauston,
00:15:19.640
a political movement back into the House of Commons,
00:15:38.060
But it seems to evade politicians of all sorts.
00:15:47.160
and they're going to get even more frustrating.
00:15:55.140
And I don't think we've exactly got a, you know,
00:16:00.240
So I don't know how one can make that argument.
00:16:06.460
And we're seeing even more sort of twisted, dark irony here.
00:16:21.040
which, you know, where do you even start with that?
00:16:31.540
and I think probably a good 90% of the British population,
00:16:44.400
and I don't care what the consequences for them are.
00:16:53.320
They want to bring with them their own culture,
00:16:55.740
And sometimes that works, sometimes it doesn't.
00:17:00.020
and again, we might talk about that, I don't know.
00:17:07.520
wanting to live the way they do back in their home society,
00:17:46.420
we've got to look after the interests of the British people,
00:18:03.380
has to be on some sort of alternative media platform.
01:10:07.280
in certain cases the English flag the St George's
01:10:17.180
buildings the LGBT you plus plus plus God knows
01:10:22.320
what flag which is not everyone's flag it is the
01:10:27.280
flag of a particular group in society we've been
01:10:34.800
now so we've got that problem regarding the NHS
01:10:38.960
there's another so so there's no unity we don't
01:10:41.600
have a multicultural Britain we have a Britain that
01:10:44.060
is comprised of a patchwork of often very disparate
01:10:50.060
cultures and communities and societies and that's
01:10:55.900
not a good thing that's not healthy and there are
01:10:58.220
people who make their political careers and I say
01:11:03.940
parochial level who sort of gain local status in
01:11:07.840
their sort of little in their street or in their you
01:11:09.760
know in their in their local council or whatever by
01:11:13.900
feeding off this and and again highlighting the
01:11:18.900
differences and we're being treated badly we're
01:11:20.900
doing they're not thinking about the broader real
01:11:24.080
community and the thing about the NHS is the the other
01:11:28.940
aspect of all of this is that we are overwhelmed and the
01:11:33.440
NHS is a good example there are too many people living in
01:11:38.000
this country and we have not we a we haven't got the space I
01:11:43.280
believe without concreting over this green and pleasant land
01:11:46.500
but but secondly we have not and we cannot afford to invest in
01:11:52.220
all of the infrastructure in the NHS in policing in schools in
01:11:55.800
hospitals in in roads in every in sewerage we can't have we
01:12:01.320
can't sustain it and that again builds tension between those
01:12:05.560
communities because you know we blame the influx we blame the foreigners we
01:12:09.680
blame the immigrants now that's not our fault it is
01:12:13.280
pressure and we all suffer as a result it is the fault back again to our
01:12:18.160
politicians who don't want to listen to people and and we have I don't
01:12:23.080
know whether we're going to talk about tyranny but on that I think the
01:12:29.380
biggest threat to in terms of tyrannical power in the United Kingdom is the
01:12:36.900
failure the refusal of politicians those in power at the moment the Labour
01:12:43.420
government particularly to show the slightest bit of respect for democratic
01:12:48.940
expression of views they don't care in fact they lie to you to win you over
01:12:54.040
before the election and then when they're in power they do something totally
01:12:57.560
different that shows total disrespect for the British people and I don't care
01:13:01.160
whether you're a Labour supporter or a Conservative supporter or Reform supporter
01:13:04.220
I don't care it shows total disregard and for you your views and a total
01:13:10.040
disrespect for you if they were listening they would have been doing things
01:13:13.620
very differently and I think that the NHS is is an example of that overwhelming
01:13:17.720
you know we have been overwhelmed it's also very badly run I mean it's not you
01:13:22.780
know but so the police and so the schools and so everything again it's been
01:13:26.640
neglected and we brought in people who bring in cultural values from elsewhere
01:13:31.380
that and JD Vance was absolutely on the money with this we have abandoned our
01:13:37.640
fundamental principles of expression of idea and views and and therefore
01:13:43.620
democracy and if you can't have these discussions you will never improve if you
01:13:48.600
only are speaking to people that you want to whose views you want to hear then you
01:13:53.360
will never address these problems and so we've got to break that model now how we
01:13:57.520
do that is really through conversations like this I think and people actually
01:14:01.620
getting out of the pubs and out of the cafes and out of their living rooms they
01:14:06.540
all listening out there and actually saying no I want the detail I don't want just
01:14:12.660
the headline pledges I don't want the promises I don't want all this these
01:14:16.920
sound bites I want to know how you're going to do this what it's going to cost and when
01:14:21.960
it's going to be delivered who buy what are you going to reorganize and how you're
01:14:25.000
going to do it because otherwise you're just like the conservatives you promise
01:14:28.120
to stop things you promise to do things and you never do because you've never
01:14:31.440
figured out how to do it and that's the that's the difference here and I think
01:14:35.920
we we as people need to we're very I mean you get the French and then they'll
01:14:40.380
they'll get really upset they'll you know they'll be dropping manure
01:14:44.080
everywhere and all the rest of it and you know but here in the UK we're kind of
01:14:47.960
we're quietly British I like that but sometimes we need to get passionate I'd
01:14:52.880
say um one step further than that the government ignores the people in fact
01:14:57.240
they they demonize them and try to prosecute them
01:15:00.820
absolutely right so we've got so it's in fact sorry sorry Bo but yes we you're
01:15:06.000
absolutely right well we've gone through the stage that I just talked about we are
01:15:09.560
at that stage but now because there are those of us who are standing up and saying
01:15:14.100
these things calling them out um now the government the authorities the elite in
01:15:19.480
Whitehall whatever they are pushing back and this is where the
01:15:23.720
authoritarianism is coming in and and again JD Vance thank you very much
01:15:28.580
Mr Vice President for for saying what needs to be said but why on earth does it
01:15:33.900
take the Vice President of the United States to say these things and to be
01:15:37.500
listened to the rest Keir Starmer all of you sitting in the House of Commons you
01:15:43.040
need to be listening to what the British public are concerned about
01:15:46.200
yeah I'll say I know you've got a bunch of these but I'll just say this
01:15:50.240
particular image speaks a thousand words doesn't it I mean it uh it's almost it's
01:15:55.380
sort of double think isn't it it's sort of obviously nonsense and a liar right in
01:15:59.960
your face it could be straight from the Ministry of Truth it could be straight
01:16:03.840
from MiniTrue uh because everybody knows the NHS the budgets are insane and
01:16:08.760
completely unsustainable can I just sorry you're right I'm sorry forgive me for
01:16:13.720
sort of for jumping in but something that I think is important and is left out
01:16:18.220
you know do we want being a little bit SDP here because it's one of the
01:16:24.220
attractions for me of that party is do we want positive democratically driven
01:16:30.940
um government regulation of the NHS do we think it's inefficient does it require
01:16:37.760
more and more sort of um you know the sort of delegation of power to local NHS or
01:16:44.020
does it need the government to actually grip it and drive efficiency rather like
01:16:47.940
we're seeing Elon Musk being tasked to do in the US I think that's it requires
01:16:52.900
government involvement do we think that the government an efficient effective
01:16:57.560
government would actually drive an improvement in education in policing in
01:17:03.640
public transport what I'm trying to say here is the government is surely got a
01:17:09.060
role in ensuring that things like the NHS policing public transport the energy
01:17:14.640
companies and the infrastructure the strategic infrastructure of the country
01:17:17.780
is delivering as an empowerment or delivering an empowerment empowerment to
01:17:23.900
society and if you like the capitalist element of the economy um do we think that
01:17:30.860
having EDF a French state owned company running part of our energy infrastructure
01:17:37.520
is appropriate why why have the French do it and not us it's run by the French
01:17:43.720
state EDF is a French state company um so you know we we need I think to reassert
01:17:50.860
our our influence as a state over that infrastructure not because it's a socialist
01:17:59.080
program but because if your railways don't work if your buses don't work if your doctor
01:18:05.480
surgeries don't work if your policing doesn't work if you if your power doesn't work if your
01:18:10.060
sewerage is overwhelmed then it's then society is struggling and and it's becoming more and more
01:18:17.800
difficult for the economy the small businessman to actually make money to get traction make money
01:18:25.980
and provide services to the local community and I think it's crucial but what we've been doing is
01:18:31.660
selling it all off and we have been we're you know we've bit with we're the we've got a company
01:18:37.580
just as an example very briefly this I'll finish on this point because I can see but um we've got a
01:18:42.900
company that was um the world's leader as I understand in hypersonic engines okay this is
01:18:49.160
something that takes something more than 3.5 times the speed of sound small company I think it was in
01:18:54.320
the West Midlands okay waiting for a contract from British Aerospace um but was you know needed a loan
01:19:01.600
of 20 million 20 million to tie itself over until that that contract well the government refused to give
01:19:09.100
them that loan so we've got the world leading technological advantage here you know the Americans
01:19:15.520
are interested everybody's interested um but they're not quite there yet to put the contracts in place
01:19:21.080
and the government refused to give them that 20 million loan and so the thing went into administration
01:19:26.140
well why what about our steel industry now you know are we saying no the market decides everything
01:19:33.840
no these are these are strategic assets strategic advantages and they are strategic infrastructure
01:19:40.720
off which everything else hangs in the economy and society and we're neglecting it sorry very broad
01:19:45.900
point I'll just quickly say it's very broad interesting point about the name the very nature of
01:19:50.220
government what should we everything you said I'm sure there's lots of libertarians out there
01:19:54.340
screaming about statism and things but it's a very good point because I mean I'm I don't like a large
01:20:00.500
state however when you're faced with the decision of either the British state controls it or the
01:20:07.680
Chinese are going to buy it yeah or the French a French corporation is going to buy it then well
01:20:12.200
suddenly I abandon sort of some of my libertarian leanings and it's not because I'm a socialist
01:20:17.660
everyone knows I'm the furthest thing from a socialist it's not because I want a big government or a big
01:20:23.260
state but if you've got a binary choice between the the our state comes in and control something or
01:20:30.480
a foreign some sort of foreign entity buys it but we've got to create surely that's not we've got
01:20:37.080
to create create the framework that engenders encourages and facilitates the growth of small
01:20:42.980
businesses in the way that they want to grow you've got to create those sort of that infrastructure
01:20:48.060
they're rather like the skeleton and and blood vessels and so on of the body you know it empowers
01:20:53.780
everything else and then everything else can can build off that and that's how I feel about it
01:21:00.000
um you can go too far though and yeah I can see that yeah you're itching here so I am yeah my personal
01:21:08.380
opinion is that um the state should only be involved um unless it's a case of civic um service in in in
01:21:15.660
terms of the justice system on policing or a matter of national defense and so I also would lump in energy
01:21:22.060
and food security into that and I think that anything beyond that and usually the government
01:21:27.320
tends to interfere and interrupt that but that's sort of my Austrian economics leanings there you're
01:21:33.160
but you say that Austrian but who who owns the railways in Austria um Österreichs Bundesbahn the state owns it
01:21:40.660
they accept a massive loss on the railways because they understand that the railways empower
01:21:48.160
rural communities so you get small businesses small factories and so on growing up in villages
01:21:53.180
out in the out in the mountains out in the hills that don't have to relocate to the to the cities
01:21:57.740
and overwhelm the infrastructure of the cities they can stay there they can employ local people out
01:22:02.040
there they keep local communities alive and they make a loss but we make a loss on our railways here as
01:22:07.420
well okay because we're subsidizing the shareholders we're you know so which do you prefer
01:22:13.260
so if it empowers local economy and business and the economy you know that kind of thing then and a
01:22:20.180
vibrant society then it's a good thing if you look at steel for example the state steps back
01:22:25.960
increasingly to the point where and that's another national like an indian corporation buys it all
01:22:30.820
and runs it into the ground yeah it's like well and was that the best thing to do you need you need
01:22:36.680
steel to make arms don't you say it's one of those industries that I would classify as but anyway
01:22:41.540
we've barely got started yeah another thing here the sort of dystopian messaging England doesn't win
01:22:48.680
without immigration this is subversion yeah a board in the back of a bar don't know why you need
01:22:54.140
political messaging or going for a drink surely that should be an escape this is my personal
01:22:58.640
favorite one here um you know lend your vote to Gaza with the dilapidated building in the background
01:23:04.420
this has got to be Birmingham hasn't oh yeah West Midlands I think it's clever but the main message
01:23:09.180
for me there and we haven't touched on this and we haven't got time to but um is the rise of
01:23:15.860
sectarian religiously sectarian politics the balkanization of Britain well it's it is but
01:23:22.180
it's it's worse it is it is the movement towards politics driven by religious ideology well that's
01:23:29.680
part of this new that is exclusive yeah it is it is and it is it is I think incredibly dangerous
01:23:36.260
uh here's another one here so I didn't know what pan was until I looked it up I don't know
01:23:42.800
and apparently it is uh an Indian uh that's what that's doing thing um yeah yeah apparently it's to
01:23:50.420
to refresh the mouth but there's another sign here this is a different council saying no to
01:23:55.740
this is of course not a problem in Britain before multiculturalism uh another problem here that we've
01:24:01.340
got to have our signs in Urdu of course uh language of Pakistan here's another um not a photoshop no
01:24:07.820
it's not this is uh of course uh uh a man walking his pet dog um oh wait no it's not it's uh of course
01:24:15.200
a man leading a goat uh past a British roundabout which uh we didn't do uh until recently uh here
01:24:22.880
we have the average Welsh woman um this is apparently what uh Welsh people look like uh
01:24:30.780
another one here is a partnership between Somaliland and Wales because of course everyone knows people
01:24:37.420
in Somaliland can point to Wales on a map and uh here's another one University of Bradford um has now
01:24:43.840
become dry and as you can imagine as I'm going to show you there is a specific reason for this
01:24:50.420
if I can find Bradford on a map I'm from Devon so this is surprisingly more difficult um oh
01:24:57.500
thanks for accepting the cookies there Samson um now we're going to get tracked by the government
01:25:03.200
but here it is um I've got the the the darker blue the more um British Asian there are oh look at that
01:25:10.900
Bradford uh 70 percent 86 percent okay so it's because there's a very large number of Muslims who don't
01:25:18.800
believe in drinking alcohol that's why that's happened what we're seeing here is not not
01:25:23.260
multiculturalism it's but monoculturalism and it's it excludes our culture it is yes it's it's
01:25:31.120
replacing our culture it is it is it's cultural displacement the foreign enclave it is exactly
01:25:36.640
here we're seeing someone advertising their services for protection against magic the evil eye
01:25:41.900
and jinn which of course it means a genie uh I've covered uh the growth of um government funding
01:25:48.740
to investigate islamic witchcraft before it's not a joke by the way uh we actually put money in the
01:25:54.340
nhs towards um dealing with beliefs in genies um this is a real thing and uh here we have a hadith
01:26:02.360
of the day uh along with a bunch of trains that are late ironically along the side there I think you
01:26:08.680
had a personal experience of that today I did thanks great I've certainly had that as well I
01:26:14.060
said um I haven't had hadiths read out to me recently um thankfully here's another one here is
01:26:20.220
the queen herself along with uh lots of islamic women presumably saying end the patriarchy say no
01:26:27.320
to gender discrimination and empowering women and empowering humanity which is a bit of a juxtaposition
01:26:32.200
between both their dress and the messages obviously they've been put up to this but this is
01:26:36.540
of course the ideology of the british state these days and double think isn't it it is yeah um perfect
01:26:43.080
there's a real juxtaposition isn't there here's another one we we did not come to britain britain
01:26:48.500
came to us and uh this is obviously trying to push the the notion that because we had a
01:26:55.180
a colonial empire we must have multiculturalism which of course is a non-sequitur the cape colony
01:27:01.300
exists therefore infinite somalis yes apparently so england now now this is something i've seen
01:27:07.440
myself in twindon uh an interesting cultural practice i mean i shouldn't laugh i mean it it is
01:27:13.320
pretty useful i imagine uh to be able to go hands-free um i mean she's able to look at her
01:27:17.720
phone carrier bag and something on her head i couldn't do that i couldn't either uh but it's just
01:27:22.020
a sign that the times are changing um as bob dylan sang in 1962 i think it was um london park named
01:27:30.100
after four-time prime minister william gladstone could be renamed uh after the political titan that
01:27:35.000
is diane abbott um i don't understand how this has come to be that we're renaming you know famous
01:27:43.160
victorian politicians like he's victorian right yeah yeah yeah four-time pm and then you're seeing
01:27:49.500
adverts send money to nigeria instantly why would british people want to do that we send 23 by 2022
01:27:56.760
22 figures i think world bank we spend 23 send 23.6 billion pounds to other countries through
01:28:04.820
remittances so people who are foreign people who are working in this country and sending money back
01:28:10.140
so that's 23.6 million a billion that goes out every year of the country but of course we need them here
01:28:15.180
to uh grow the economy don't we that's true uh here's another one here japa apparently means like a
01:28:20.560
middle class person who's left for work in nigeria it's actually a slang term thanks for translating
01:28:26.040
that advert um of course this is targeted advertising to nigerians in britain for some reason send as much
01:28:32.560
money home yes uh here's another one it's saying basically don't forget your relatives and then here's
01:28:38.520
another one um this is for people to send money to india apparently um for whatever reason uh that's on
01:28:46.280
the um that's on the uh the entrance to a train i think i don't oh it's the tube isn't it um here's
01:28:54.700
another one i don't even understand this one when good times mean gold gappers and gupshup this is just
01:29:01.320
another targeted advert towards i presume people from the the indian subcontinent i don't even know what
01:29:07.640
this means but it's again sending money um it's just open the here's the way to extract wealth
01:29:14.580
from britain this is now being openly advertised um there are signs on toilet saying please do not
01:29:20.520
wash your feet in the sink i don't think british people necessarily need to be told this i sort of
01:29:25.260
knew this um even as a very young child not to do that nor could i reach again we go back to those
01:29:31.680
cultural sort of practices which are normal in other countries so from if you're practicing muslim in
01:29:36.860
other countries you will often you will go to a communal sort of washing area outside the mosque
01:29:42.900
before you pray and before you pray you're supposed to wash uh wash certain parts of your body and you
01:29:48.940
know if it's that time of day uh you need to wash before you pray that's that that's the practice
01:29:54.520
now you know you've got this cultural sort of now the the point for us if you like as
01:30:00.660
as indigenous brits if i can use that that phrase but to differentiate um but um is that who's going
01:30:08.500
to be using that sink next i know you know it's a public race you know it is gross and i by our
01:30:13.720
standards now they will say well you know you're being you know but no you know this is where we
01:30:19.720
have cultural norms that are in conflict with each other if if they want to practice their culture as
01:30:27.000
they wish they can they have a home to return to we only have one britain and so we we should live
01:30:33.940
by our own terms if you don't walk around barefoot or in flip-flops you shouldn't need to wash your
01:30:38.620
feet in the middle of the day anyway it's about the englishman wear socks and shoes thank you it's
01:30:42.380
about the procedure of praying so we need to understand why they do it but that doesn't make
01:30:46.160
it acceptable another example here um offensive weapons act being just advertised in front of a
01:30:53.400
cutlery set i don't i don't remember that ever happening before but now apparently in multicultural
01:30:59.480
britain that is the case um this one is um not so much related to multiculturalism as uh
01:31:06.960
just well i suppose it is actually i thought this was a covid one but it's not it's um actually to do
01:31:12.700
with the tube isn't it it's to do with people staring at people and uh from the crime reports we
01:31:18.760
know the kinds of people that are doing this and they're not necessarily your average uh london
01:31:23.540
commuter of 100 years ago say um and this problem of staring um is actually uh a problem pretty much
01:31:32.300
centered of those from the middle east and north africa are normally staring at young women and it's
01:31:39.500
not something that we had a problem with previously and it didn't need to be said staring at people is
01:31:44.900
rude we have commuted for 20 plus years from essex through london through east london the number
01:31:51.100
of times there's even a remotely pretty woman on the train going through places like white chapel
01:31:56.980
actually and bow and and the east end essentially um the amount of leering and staring is unbelievable
01:32:05.200
it's unbelievable you wouldn't understand it until you've seen it it's mad we we end up with a
01:32:10.860
certain sort of um center of gravity if you like beyond which it's very difficult to turn it back
01:32:16.660
because you know if if you go back i'm 61 coming on for 62 you go back 40 years okay you you know
01:32:25.700
there was a bit of a bit of banter and a bit of leeriness and of course there always has been
01:32:30.720
um and i don't necessarily excuse it but um if somebody was stepped out of line then you know let's
01:32:37.840
say they didn't wash properly or they're washing their feet in the sink or they were rude to
01:32:41.780
somebody or they were then you'd call it out you'd say don't be rude you know whatever you'd you know
01:32:47.160
somebody would do that but now but because they were the minority that was one in 50 people who
01:32:53.260
would behave in that way um or would litter or would do graffiti now the majority of people in
01:33:00.960
some of these communities this is normal behavior well we don't have the critical mass to enforce
01:33:06.760
our cultural standards that's what i mean and so unless government steps in some of these communities
01:33:13.400
are lost i mean i to to the values and again jd vance was right the the fundamental principles and
01:33:20.000
values that we stand for and actually that made the uk its society and its economy and so on attractive
01:33:27.960
to all of these people in the first place it is that we're not we're not leveling up the world as
01:33:32.460
i said we we are lowering our own level by this because we're refusing to enforce those standards
01:33:39.500
absolutely so here's another one uh just some pretty woke road names i imagine this is probably in
01:33:46.820
london and overseen by sadiq khan but i don't know uh but it seems like the kind of thing he would like
01:33:51.940
his renaming of the overground lines sort of indicated this sort of thing uh here's another one
01:33:57.040
somali road um that's in camden in london uh and what kind of shops might you find on these sorts
01:34:03.380
of streets well um these are all shops that are in service not to the british people they're clearly
01:34:09.100
oriented towards um foreign enclaves here you know i don't know what a goxon is or an izzy barber
01:34:16.440
i don't know what they are just another observation of course um when i was i referred to kosovo
01:34:22.540
before after the war the war in kosovo there was most of the serbs had left because it was a very
01:34:29.000
hostile environment but there were serbs who remained a very small minority in kosovo after
01:34:34.960
the war and um it was a united nations governed province for a year i was a district governor there
01:34:42.960
and the um the there was this process by which the albanians would move into an area occupy empty
01:34:53.720
flats this was all orchestrated by the what was the kosovo liberation army it was all organized it
01:35:01.860
was all planned you know and started to happen even before the united nations really and nato deployed
01:35:06.580
um and um they would move into to town centers and so on and they would establish themselves they
01:35:14.040
would the cafes and so on now the serbs would not want to venture into those areas because it was
01:35:20.360
different culture different language different forms of behavior um and the serbs who'd remained had
01:35:26.900
nothing to do with the fighting though mostly elderly people because and they'd got nowhere else to go
01:35:32.400
but there was this process that we recognized that nato recognized that the united nations
01:35:38.660
recognized that the european union recognized and something called the organization of security
01:35:42.340
and cooperation in europe recognized those people who were if you like governing kosovo at the time
01:35:46.720
and it was called officially it was called passive passive ethnic cleansing now it sounds appalling
01:35:54.980
to say that that's what's happening here but it is and i'm going to give you if i may a quick
01:36:00.600
example sure well in the district where i was governor i had there was a the small enclave of
01:36:07.080
serbs remaining um they had nowhere else to go they were all very passive quiet stayed kept to
01:36:14.140
themselves serbs they weren't the sort of nationalists that you think of and if you think back to those
01:36:19.220
times and they had remained because they had no concern they thought they'd got no concern and they'd
01:36:24.700
stayed around the area of a 12th century orthodox church uh which had a graveyard around it and i
01:36:33.560
one day came back ironically from chairing the regional security meeting with nato and everybody
01:36:40.320
else came back to to my my office and to find that i'd got a whole bunch of the muslim clergy in my office
01:36:49.300
my secretary said well you know they want to talk to you i've given them all tea fine they've got all
01:36:54.760
these maps what they wanted was to build a mosque in the town in this particular town and i in principle
01:37:02.000
i had no problem with it because there wasn't one and 63 percent of the pre-war population was
01:37:08.160
albanian muslim fine and thankfully i'd already identified a site for such an eventuality but when i you
01:37:15.760
know i said look you've got the the maps here the cadastro maps the local planning maps um you know
01:37:20.840
you it looks like you've got an idea of where you want to build it where do you want to build this
01:37:23.880
mosque here in the graveyard of the 12th century orthodox church in the middle of the serbian enclave
01:37:30.720
the serbs are the baddies and i yeah and i said why do you want to build it there well we want to
01:37:36.640
demonstrate that we can live in peace and harmony with our serbian brothers and i said well do you think
01:37:42.360
that they might have a different view if they do it proves that they don't want to live with us
01:37:47.600
and i said but you want to build it on their graveyard not just next to the church but on the
01:37:54.320
graveyard and they said well yeah now bear in mind you've got prayers five times a day so you've got
01:38:00.160
you've got muslims going through then that serbian enclave in demonstrable or in a demonstration
01:38:09.380
of a different culture demonstrating if you like that that culture is not only in the ascendancy
01:38:15.860
but is dominant now and and i they do them very clever and they put me they thought in a situation
01:38:23.180
whereby if i said no then i was siding with serbs and then and the albanian media would put it that
01:38:29.900
way if i said yes then it's even the united nations governor is is siding with the albanians putting
01:38:36.120
more pressure on the serbs luckily as i said i'd identified a separate area in in the district
01:38:41.280
or in the town which was in the albanian area um public land i was able to with the authority vested
01:38:49.880
in me by the security council i was able to give them a 999 year lease um which i did um that mosque
01:38:58.680
the first stone was laid 17 years later it wasn't about a mosque it was about that passive ethnic
01:39:07.900
cleansing and when you you know you see that you know people say well what's wrong it's that church
01:39:13.080
is empty yes that church is empty but it's a church and it's it's symbolic of a culture even if
01:39:19.180
it's a culture that's on the wane or whatever but you know and i i it's a very difficult even for me
01:39:26.620
it's a very difficult situation you know you've got an empty church you want to use it but
01:39:30.020
you know you can't use it as a mosque you know you you you're being put in a situation quite
01:39:35.140
deliberately of of creating a conflict now our politicians at local level and national level
01:39:44.200
will not have that conflict they will not enter that discussion um they will not prepare for it they
01:39:50.700
will not plan for it they allow this this thing this you know it's like having the the trocadero
01:39:57.120
in leicester square being a great example of this here where there's a a foreign vape shop uh in a
01:40:05.240
nice tudor building here which if the local council had been doing its job would not have been allowed
01:40:10.180
because it undermines the preservation of the historic buildings here in a significant way and
01:40:16.040
in fact it's a an eyesore and uh it's it's just a symptom of that uh ethnic replacement that you're
01:40:22.180
on about it is ethnic cleansing passive passive ethnic cleansing in your example if the serbs dare
01:40:28.620
to object lest not even fight back if they dare to object then they're the evil ones they're the baddies
01:40:36.660
in this narrative yeah well we could talk about i think we could talk about that particular sort of
01:40:43.960
the series of incidents that that occurred which provide context to what i've said um but this was
01:40:49.560
a district in which six six farmers just down the road serbian farmers had been collecting the crop
01:40:54.200
and albania a bunch of albanians had turned up and shot them all dead in the field they're just
01:40:58.840
collecting their crops they're trying to you know subsistence farming um we'd got the nato was having to
01:41:05.000
build new roads between serbian communities because the albanians were putting landmines
01:41:10.380
between now this is after the war and this is not because they wanted to kill people but because
01:41:15.080
they wanted to make life so difficult for serbs that they would leave so it was it was not you know so
01:41:22.060
and and yeah it's funny i thought only serbians committed war crimes that's what i said at the
01:41:28.100
beginning there's two sides to every story and you know we we focused on one and we still
01:41:33.780
you know we we're still appeasing this attempt at cultural dominance and when you've got the mayor
01:41:40.500
of london sadiq khan sitting in that position of power and authority and those people who may have
01:41:45.400
seen some of the the the mayor's question and answer sessions with the the assembly members it is
01:41:50.600
shocking that a democratically elected politician chooses not to be held democratically accountable
01:41:59.220
which he very if you watch those into those those question and answer sessions he very clearly
01:42:04.480
doesn't refuses he just doesn't see why he should and that again is cultural it's again cultural you
01:42:12.540
try to hold we've got to bring things to a close now we've we've already overrun a fair amount but
01:42:17.320
thankfully we can but um the the wonderful irony here is that this this term that's been coined is
01:42:23.680
also being used by shops flying things like bangladeshi and palestinian flags here in london
01:42:30.200
obviously a symptom of the decline here and obviously um the replacement of the british people
01:42:36.880
has created this new aesthetic it's it's becoming this multicultural uk rather than the britain of old
01:42:44.820
and you can see the skeleton of what was once britain but if this is allowed to continue we will see
01:42:50.220
more of this there will be a new culture to replace british culture and i don't think that that should
01:42:54.920
happen the only way of dealing with it i think i've always said is every day that goes past when
01:43:01.600
this is not addressed makes the ultimate sort of policy sort of reply to it more and more necessarily
01:43:09.880
more and more dramatic and i actually think that we really need to put um a virtually a moratorium on
01:43:17.020
on immigration at the moment we've got to get ahead of this we've got to rebuild our infrastructure
01:43:21.740
we've got to start integrating communities um we've got to those and we've got to start
01:43:26.780
deporting foreign national offenders no ifs no buts we've got to leave the echr and and get rid of the
01:43:32.900
human rights act to do that um and you know i it's not that i am anti any of these people because
01:43:39.360
lived all over the world in various countries and i mean properly lived you know um and i i'm not
01:43:46.560
you know they live the way that they want over there i have no problem with that go ahead crack
01:43:51.460
on i might not agree with i might but i don't have to live there it's not my country you do it as you
01:43:55.280
as you wish but don't bring that here and i very much agree with that i think that this is the view
01:44:00.480
that most people have adopted here so i'm going to fire through some comments we've already overran by
01:44:05.500
15 minutes i'm going to be very quick i'm just going to read them and uh so apparently the historian
01:44:10.580
leo lucassen says migration will lead to 100 years of violence but it's okay um because we'll have a
01:44:16.340
fusion of culture he ignores the two often don't come to fuse but to inflict violence um someone
01:44:23.180
says good morning from minnesota usa um where it is balmy negative 18 degrees this morning or negative
01:44:28.440
25 for you brits um thank you very much and uh if the reason you were here is because britain came to
01:44:37.220
you then why are you in ireland switzerland austria finland etc that's a fair point uh and there are some
01:44:44.920
positive comments here for um saying uh annie moss says henry bolton is a wonderful guest i hope
01:44:51.960
you just have him uh on more often and uh that gentleman whose name you didn't want to read out
01:44:58.500
because it sounds incriminating also said um best guest in a long time please have him back on so
01:45:03.560
well received there you go very much i'm gonna read um just a single comment from each section because
01:45:08.540
we have overran quite a bit omar awad says um for the first segment um message received their kids
01:45:14.600
being harmed is enough for them to stay our kids being harmed isn't enough for them to go which is
01:45:19.260
very succinctly put as always you want me to read yours for uh please um federal agent um i don't
01:45:28.260
think they're actually a federal agent uh says did jack the ripper get his knife from amazon
01:45:32.060
it's entirely possible uh maybe uh yvette cooper will tell us
01:45:38.540
so for the segment just gone uh luzak brozek says uh the eye from do not stare looks exactly like
01:45:45.640
the one from my copy of 1984 funny coincidence i thought that exact same thing actually i have
01:45:50.740
that copy of 1984 as well the big like the all-seeing eye of imber so just uh definitely not a masonic
01:45:58.360
reference and uh finally um what shall i end on oh they're quite long comments never mind but
01:46:06.280
thank you very much for coming in thank you for having me i'm sorry i talked so much that's all
01:46:10.920
