Transcript
00:00:00.000
good afternoon ladies and gentlemen welcome to the podcast of the lotus eaters for monday the
00:00:04.040
7th of april 2025 i'm john mostelios and steve and today we're going to be talking about
00:00:09.820
what's happening in france after le pen was convicted yeah the aftermath the aftermath of
00:00:15.680
it um why the british state is just openly promoting islam at this point and how glasgow
00:00:21.540
decided to become a sanctuary city and that worked out so brilliantly no announcements today so
00:00:27.920
let's uh let's just crack on right so about a week ago marie le pen was convicted under the charge of
00:00:35.520
embezzling funds from the eu now she will not be able to run for the french presidency for 2027
00:00:44.020
she says she is going to appeal this decision but looks like she is not going to be able to run and
00:00:51.740
i'm not optimistic that the french judicial system is going to overturn the ruling
00:00:57.400
something tells me that they won't right so she was fined with about a hundred thousand euros and
00:01:04.780
she's going to spend i think about two years on the house arrest house arrest i think so shocking yes
00:01:12.540
absolutely shocking as if she's some sort of danger to the public or something these are the the reports
00:01:18.920
i've read yeah no no i i'm not i'm not i'm not questioning whether that's correct or not i'm just
00:01:23.260
disgusted by it last week uh stephen did an excellent segment on um on the ruling it was the
00:01:30.960
very day i think it happened so it was the right moment for that segment to be released so definitely
00:01:36.900
watch it and uh we spoke about several things but one of the issues was that the accusations weren't
00:01:43.520
particularly plausible or that the accusations are entirely arbitrary because she was essentially
00:01:50.860
accused for mishandling eu funds because she got money from the eu and part of that money was
00:01:58.400
spent in france which is also part of the eu but it was essentially a good opportunity for
00:02:06.940
the judiciary yeah to present it as if she was doing anti-eu work and the issue that i i found is that
00:02:14.760
when you get eu funding funding is divided into three categories and one of those categories is that
00:02:19.620
as a group in the european parliament you're allocated a huge sum of money for the group
00:02:24.180
and which you can then use that money allocated to parties within the group to fund employees and
00:02:30.420
activities within it which is what she did the question that i always find difficult about that
00:02:35.620
is that the money comes in for a civil servant who's allocated to your group from your party and
00:02:41.700
they have to sign everything off it doesn't just because you're the leader it doesn't mean that
00:02:46.880
you're signing off all these contracts and that is what i found disgusting about it because it's
00:02:51.760
like saying every chief executive is in charge of a business and anything any fraud that goes below
00:02:57.920
that undertaken by anyone and i'm not suggesting everyone was committing fraud or anyone was but
00:03:03.760
that means that you're responsible for every person down below you that's what she's been charged with
00:03:10.000
right so the next date to remember is june 2026 because she is going to appeal the ban with the
00:03:15.840
paris court of appeal and uh if she were to win the appeal she could still run but people are
00:03:22.800
pessimistic with respect to with respect to that right so le pen says she is going to keep on fighting
00:03:30.000
and there was a pro le pen rally in uh in paris and there were people who were protesting in favor of
00:03:38.080
her she gave a speech also jordan bardella gave a speech who is the person who is the president of the
00:03:44.640
national rally party and he's 29 years old he has a very big tick tock following but also really
00:03:54.080
important social media presence and a lot of people especially zoomers are looking up to him to be the
00:03:59.600
sort of prosumer french politician right so there was a massive protest in favor of le pen you can
00:04:08.320
see here it's pretty huge photos and she says here i can express my gratitude to you for tremendous
00:04:15.520
popular absurge in favor of democracy and the law that you embodied throughout france and to which your
00:04:20.720
large and fervent present today bears witness and she says several other stuff she says also here it's
00:04:28.320
impossible for me to hide my emotion at seeing you here and in all our departments standing by
00:04:33.360
our side to defend what this decision has trampled on the foot and what i hold dear above all else
00:04:38.720
my people my country and my honor rights can i can i just say this this just seems like obvious law
00:04:45.040
fair to me i mean the the allocate the allegation of mishap or the conviction of misallocation of funds
00:04:52.640
i suspect is incredibly trivial in the ground screaming things and i imagine that many many many
00:04:58.080
many meps would be like oh god but did i do this now i have to double check on everything and oh
00:05:03.120
what i you know i did this to hire an assistant there when i should have used that money for this
00:05:07.440
and it just it's not corruption in the sort of grand scheme of things that we would envisage as
00:05:13.440
being corruption and it's not corruption because that's what we saw over political parties and i think
00:05:17.440
when we went through the piece last week i ran through all the political parties that have been attacked
00:05:22.240
by the european union in terms of investigations and all of them were either those on the right
00:05:28.240
or the what they regarded the extreme left for doing exactly the same types of activities that the green
00:05:33.920
party does that the socialists do that the aldi did you know there's no way that i've ever seen
00:05:40.000
any investigations into their activities and i find that's why i agree with you that this is lawfare and
00:05:46.720
it's extreme and even even if even if i mean i'm sure she's guilty of what they're accusing her of
00:05:53.200
being guilty of uh to me it just seems like it could have been some sort of administrative error
00:05:58.160
uh even if that was the case why such a harsh punishment uh okay well you've you've misallocated
00:06:04.240
some funds okay well then you have to pay them back if you have some sort of fine you have a you
00:06:08.960
have some sort of appropriate uh punishment for what she's done two years house arrest and ban from
00:06:15.360
running from politics for the next five years this seems very evidently designed to keep her out of
00:06:20.720
politics she's in the lead it's definitely a political decision and something tells me that
00:06:25.200
if any other politician did that any leader of government he wouldn't get the blame yeah someone
00:06:31.120
else would be blamed well let's look look at what happened to sarkozy how much you outsource you
00:06:36.480
outsource responsibilities to other people sarkozy took a huge amount of money and he did not get banned
00:06:44.720
politics in fact he became president afterwards christine lagarde was involved in a huge fraud and
00:06:50.240
what was her the consequence for her she was given a huge job looking after the money of our of europe
00:06:58.000
to be honest and this this is why it's particularly attacking marie le pen because she is so successful
00:07:04.400
and has that chance of actually winning and the popular choice yeah and the punishment is just so
00:07:09.840
disproportionate it just reveals itself to be law fair to me anyway no i i agree with you there was
00:07:15.920
a counter protest an anti-marie le pen protest that turned out to be a bit of a flop not many people went
00:07:23.280
there um and uh you have uh someone there saying that eric coquerel from the lfi i think that's a leftist
00:07:34.640
party saying i think everyone should have been there not many people were enough there there
00:07:40.160
there ought to have been a much larger communist presence communist presence and the crying of
00:07:46.400
marie le pen right so we're gonna talk about uh the who is happy with this who is cheering and the
00:07:54.880
argument they say and i want to i want to sell it this way i think hamza yusuf is happy yeah and i want
00:08:02.640
to play this video and actually listen to something happy he looks delighted there this is the the
00:08:08.240
delighted expression that's right yeah but i want people to listen precisely to the words he uses
00:08:15.680
because i think they reveal something really important
00:08:21.200
the far right are losing don't get me wrong they're far from out but this week has proven that we can
00:08:29.440
defeat the far right and hit them where it hurts elon musk has hinted he will leave as a trump advisor next month
00:08:39.680
of course he says it was all part of his grand plan and has nothing to do with the 36
00:08:46.800
percent drop in tesla shares in the last quarter there's nothing to do the fact that tesla has had some
00:08:54.560
460 billion us dollars this uh sort of uh derails the conversation but did you get something he said
00:09:03.440
there that this proves that the far right can be defeated yes as if the only way that you can win
00:09:10.880
against marie le pen is not by elections but by banning her yeah no that's literally what he said
00:09:17.680
that is a very important point that's literally what he's saying and he's smirking about it he's
00:09:22.880
being smug so what what he's saying is no no no all of the systems are controlled by people who agree
00:09:28.960
with me and therefore i can smugly wink at you as they come down and actually criminalize you
00:09:35.760
rather than engaging the democratic process he's happy to use administrative warfare exactly and i think
00:09:41.920
that this is incidental it expresses a very deep trend within people who think like hamza yousef and
00:09:49.600
i think that those who are in the top leadership positions of the eu do we've been seeing it since
00:09:55.040
brexit the numbers of mps that had some form of allegation never proven but it went through an
00:10:03.120
administrative process and sometimes they tried to criminalize those who are brexiteers they were out
00:10:09.360
never got succeeded they tried it with trump we've seen it with the romanian uh president we've
00:10:14.400
watched it in many many individuals thinking about simply banning the afd that's right it's crazy and
00:10:20.480
they know it's because they know that the tide is turning against them exactly so it looks like they
00:10:27.120
absolutely they know definitely that they are entirely unpopular and they cannot win in a fair fight
00:10:33.120
yeah right so we have an article by the economist uh that um hosted an oxford professor yeah called
00:10:44.400
tarik abu chadi who in the i'm sorry but every time i hear about this man who in the article says that
00:10:52.720
this isn't the opinion of the of the economist but he says basically that this is really good for
00:10:59.920
liberal democracy oh yeah why i he has several arguments that i want to share with you and
00:11:06.080
listen to what you have to say but what is interesting let us look at here it has 11 11 000
00:11:14.400
views and 64 likes that's low that shows a lot of how popular this position is but okay let's also
00:11:23.920
bear in mind that twitter isn't isn't uh representative of the entire world but it looks like
00:11:31.920
what hamza yusuf says shows that in this case we can safely say that this is ridiculous well
00:11:39.440
people can click on the article and um what but it's paywalled but i have three points that he raises
00:11:46.720
number one the law needs to be applied so this is what the rule of law is all about with the heaviest hand
00:11:53.520
possible number two it will lessen support for the national riley front has it done that i don't
00:12:00.960
think it has i mean as i understand it she's at 37 percent of the polls at the moment she is and also
00:12:06.880
jordan bardella is also leading the polls in questions whether people are going to support him but he says
00:12:14.800
that uh french politics is very much uh person oriented and uh if marie le pen doesn't run not
00:12:23.120
many people are gonna rally to vote for her party but he also says that the other person is a puppet of
00:12:30.240
marie le pen that's one of their next arguments we we're just seeing that i think is it in serbia or
00:12:36.800
montenegro where the president has just uh removed the prime minister and put someone in who's a physician
00:12:43.920
yeah and they're saying well serving needles is not enough skill to be able to become prime minister
00:12:50.640
well what's that of being a lawyer you know the same sort of thing so they use the language that he's
00:13:00.000
is i mean if your first argument is french politics is very personal and then your second
00:13:05.680
argument is people won't like this guy because he's the direct agent of le pen no that you know
00:13:11.120
he's like her closest ally like if it's very personal then he is inheriting her legacy
00:13:16.560
yeah and also he says that uh court rule court decisions are important moments in expressing norms
00:13:22.720
they signal to citizens what is and isn't accepted in a society well look on the they do on the principle
00:13:30.880
number one the law should be applied and it does you know send out signals it's hard to argue with those
00:13:37.200
very general principles that those on the left the right and the center would agree on but that's
00:13:41.680
not what this is about this is about whether first of all it is actually true that she did this if it
00:13:48.080
is whether the sentence is commensurate with what was actually offended and i think really for him to
00:13:55.280
suggest that banning for five years house arrest for two when she's only got a measly hundred thousand
00:14:01.920
euro fine it's pathetic it shows clearly that is not what principle one and three is about in their
00:14:08.880
eyes yeah but moreover how is this good how is this good for liberal democracy because not only does
00:14:14.720
this look like a naked attempt for the system to try and penalize and keep out someone who might
00:14:22.000
want to change the current reigning order and paradigm of the country but it's doing it in the face of
00:14:28.400
popular appeal so what what is happening here is essentially going to be a third of france is
00:14:34.400
going to say right so the democratic system can't work for us oh that's a good idea that's good for
00:14:40.080
liberal democracy isn't it disenfranchising morally a third of the country more than so yeah you'll never
00:14:45.920
get the results you think you can have through the ballot box well if it's not the ballot box how do
00:14:50.880
they get their results you think they're just going to give up on it and go home it is not good for
00:14:55.360
liberal democracy it's good for their liberal democracy it's good for the administrative state
00:15:00.080
that's what it's good for yes and what i want to say is that the extra thing to add to what you said
00:15:10.400
is that you can't say that i represent a liberal institutional order a liberal democratic institutional
00:15:17.840
order and suddenly completely ignore the fact that 37 of people are going to think that the
00:15:25.520
institutions are completely delegitimized you can't have a viable democratic order you can have in fact
00:15:32.160
any any political order with widespread delegitimization people in in germany know it much better they
00:15:40.880
they say the same thing with the afd when the afd was in 12.5 percent they said we can't do this
00:15:48.000
because one out of eight people will will think that the institutions are delegitimate imagine doing
00:15:54.400
it with 37 percent yeah this is ridiculous it's madness have you been seeing how the french have been
00:16:01.360
trying to argue that all the people in the country are not actually happy about marie le pen challenging
00:16:09.360
the decision have you seen the polls that are supposed to no i haven't saying 70 of people are
00:16:14.320
saying well you know the sentence is correct and they picked up an old lady said i was a
00:16:19.680
a fan of marie le pen but i don't think she should challenge yeah and i think that's one of the things
00:16:24.320
that they do remember for brexit they turned around and said oh we've got buyer's remorse and then
00:16:29.520
the conservatives buyer remorse now we've got trump remorse picking out one individual are you seeing
00:16:35.520
that it's everything to create a narrative and this is how they control the way that
00:16:39.840
politics goes uh but thankfully we have a large social media presence and we get to fight back on
00:16:45.200
this right so if the appeal doesn't work the next person is going to be jordan bordella jordan bordella
00:16:53.920
is the president of the party and uh he's projected to win the french presidency as well in 2027 so
00:17:03.040
it really didn't work so i have i have i have a few things to say about jordan bordella for people
00:17:11.920
who don't know him so he's 29 years old he was born in 1995 to parents of italian origin he has a
00:17:20.480
really large social media presence people say that they have he has more than two million people on
00:17:25.680
tiktok um he has no experience in government so far he dropped out of university and entered the fr the
00:17:35.360
national rally party at i think the age of 17 and slowly and steadily he has risen to its ranks and
00:17:43.920
he's considered to be a lot people are a bit split brained on this there is a portion of
00:17:50.160
the right that says he's really good and careful and he doesn't have the baggage or the negative
00:17:59.120
association that the party had so he's sort of cleansing the party in people's mind and then
00:18:05.360
there are the there's the other segment of the right that says he is actually too much of a macronist
00:18:13.520
and he's pandering he's too much of a centrist he's pandering to the to the institutions of a
00:18:21.680
society that has led to the problem but it's it doesn't he doesn't represent a revolutionary
00:18:28.480
perspective doesn't have the solution so they say that he's very meticulous very he doesn't make
00:18:35.040
mistakes he's very disciplined and uh some people on the right would say maybe we want someone with more
00:18:41.680
far in his belly he doesn't seem like the guy who wants to you know crush the system this is a this
00:18:48.720
is a big debate and i think that this debate is a one that every right wing in general has in every
00:18:55.680
country there are people who are more in favor of coalition building and discipline there are others
00:19:01.440
who are more in favor of a bit more radical but i think there's a language there's a difference here we
00:19:07.760
we want somebody that can actually win and then make the radical change in the way and we've seen
00:19:12.400
it in terms of trump where he is very radical and says it in the way and he's got an opportunity
00:19:18.240
because of the political system out there to be able to get the maga movement to push it through
00:19:22.720
we don't necessarily have that so i'd rather have someone who's slightly sneaky pretending at the
00:19:27.360
background that you know we can get through and then actually just hammer them afterwards yeah and
00:19:32.080
bardello i think i'm not sure of whether he spent a little bit of time in the european parliament
00:19:37.760
as an assistant he has yes i think he did i think he was around when he was 23 around when i was
00:19:43.040
there uh and and i think like he he was pretty much controlled him and the the is it the niece
00:19:48.960
of uh marie lou was it a daughter or niece yeah i know the two of them were recognized to be like
00:19:54.480
really quite firebrand at that time when they were younger and both of them if you've noticed have
00:19:59.280
been calmed down well this is uh didn't napoleon say never trust a man under 40 during a revolution
00:20:06.400
right i i get the feeling that the zoomers are a lot more revolutionary than we give them yeah i i
00:20:11.680
hope he is but i want to bring back the conversation to something you said about trump because i think
00:20:17.280
the american context is very different to the european context and what is considered right-wing
00:20:22.960
in the us isn't necessarily what is considered right-wing in europe so i don't think that it may be the
00:20:30.080
case that bordella's rhetoric is more right to the right than trump's is but people say trump is radical
00:20:37.920
and uh bordella isn't or people in the in europe aren't uh as writing as they say i think that people
00:20:45.760
need to bear in mind that europe and america are different oh yeah yeah but our radicalization
00:20:52.160
is also part of the pan system of taking away power from the administrative state we don't want
00:20:59.120
to see them controlling our civil service anymore we don't want to have uh quangos and think their
00:21:04.480
think tanks that are paid for by those quangos controlling our thought processes or the policies
00:21:10.320
that's why we need someone radically enough to actually turn around and say we need to introduce
00:21:14.160
laws that actually can be implemented immediately to remove their powers that's where the difficulty is
00:21:20.160
and in europe it's even harder to do so because their civil service is even more entrenched look
00:21:25.200
at the sorbonne that's the entire point of the european union absolutely a continent-wide bureaucracy
00:21:30.400
that can never be challenged absolutely and that's where they're going to have problems but if they
00:21:35.200
can link up if only some of these parties could link up and say the big issue is the eu's civil
00:21:41.280
service and let's pull it out with our own then that's the real radicalization but i don't think
00:21:46.880
you're going to get that in europe unfortunately yeah so i think that the
00:21:54.000
i think that despite brexit sorry carry on yeah no i think that the debate between whether someone
00:21:59.360
should be a bit more careful and more disciplinarian in his approach and and measured and that between
00:22:05.680
being a bit more radical and showing will to to break the system is one that we can have it endlessly
00:22:13.520
and we will be having it and different different uh countries will probably require different
00:22:21.120
answers to this i have this by my friend rafael who is skeptical of the of the national rally party
00:22:30.720
and he thinks that late late lately people should go and read it he thinks that basically that the the
00:22:37.920
party is dragging itself to the left and that uh he she's not doing a lot of farage is she
00:22:45.120
he he told his view rafael's view is that she isn't as bad as farage but she's close to it but
00:22:51.840
he thinks that basically bordella is going to be like macron really which arguably could be worse
00:22:58.800
so what it says the leftization of the party is going well i've heard complaints about the influx of
00:23:03.360
leftist militants bringing their council culture into the national rally but for the electorate
00:23:08.800
the national rally of le pen is still the national front of her father they don't follow politics
00:23:14.000
closely don't really see the trend and he says basically that what le pen did for 15 years is
00:23:20.720
what farage is doing now she's thriving on the memory of her father which is still associated to the
00:23:25.840
party in the mind of the older electorate and her spokesman jordan bordella makes funny tiktok videos for
00:23:32.240
zoomers and he says that essentially that this uh he doesn't he does he's very skeptical of this
00:23:39.040
of this strategy now personally i i don't know he's he's french has much better idea of what is going
00:23:45.680
on there and uh yeah but i i think rafael's voice is a is an interesting one to bear in mind i think that
00:23:54.400
what concerns me there is saying it's not a grassroots bottom-up organization anymore
00:23:58.400
yeah i mean there is an element when any political party that suddenly the the top takes over because
00:24:04.160
they've grown and they've become so big and i recognize that in in the national party but what
00:24:10.640
is important is whether they're really engaging with those people who supported them and built them
00:24:15.840
whether their views their radicalized ideas are still being encapsulated in the policies and that's
00:24:21.680
where farage is failing completely as we can completely see it's not just moving to the left he's removing
00:24:27.200
the very fire that's in the belly of most people to be able to succeed and change in this country
00:24:32.080
i don't even know what nigel wants to do i don't even know what his plan is house of lords and get
00:24:37.360
a really nice tv slot exactly beyond beyond that you know what what actual radical change what what any
00:24:43.120
change what would he do when he was in government uh and honestly it seems to from his his just his
00:24:48.640
speeches it seems to be to the left of starmer yeah i i couldn't agree more i i look at the man that
00:24:55.120
kind of encouraged me to step into the field and many others that i saw and he is not the individual
00:25:01.040
that we saw but what just it breaks my heart and i hope that they're not going to break the hearts of
00:25:05.600
the the french supporters of marie le pen with bardella is that you just don't feel that he's going to make
00:25:11.120
any of those massive achievements that we want and he'll sell them down the line as he did with the
00:25:15.360
the brexit supporters when he took their money and said you can stand oh we're closing the doors now
00:25:20.160
because of a deal with the tories i just feel that that's where they're going i hope not i pray for
00:25:26.080
those people who are supporting them and backing them with all their energy and enthusiasm but if
00:25:31.200
that's what's happening in france as well that that's a sad state of affairs i think but uh i'll end
00:25:36.240
the segment by saying that um it's easy to get demoralized but also demoralization works until it
00:25:43.760
doesn't and a lot of people are getting demoralized with the completely anti-liberal and anti-democratic
00:25:52.480
rulings of the eu but um they are also getting really enraged with it so i think at some point
00:26:01.520
demoralization people will stop being demoralized and become very enraged so i think that this is
00:26:07.200
something politicians need to bear in mind well this in fact goes to the comment that the engaged few
00:26:13.040
are sent in it remains true that when men have denied a voice they will of painful necessity
00:26:17.920
reach for their swords that's exactly the point so to have a professor in oxford saying oh no this is
00:26:24.160
good for liberal democracy it's like well that's an almost childlike perspective on anything everyone
00:26:29.280
knows that's not good for democracy when the major parties start banning political figures or the party
00:26:35.920
themselves so it's the sign of a civilization whose political system is like a spinning top starting to
00:26:43.040
lose its um uh the energy that keeps it moving uh and uh inexio says given all the lib dems and
00:26:49.680
politicians he's brought into reform lately in his talking points farage isn't right-wing and reform
00:26:54.160
supporters are leaving and looking for an actual right-wing party yes they are
00:27:00.000
anyway so the question that has sprung to the forefront of my mind in the last week or so is why is the
00:27:07.920
british state so vociferously promoting islam because it has been embarrassing to see if nothing else but
00:27:15.920
also suspect and weird and i don't like it because as the census in 2021 showed us actually britain has a
00:27:26.160
very small percentage of muslims uh 6.5 percent uh you wouldn't know given the representation that
00:27:34.080
they are given in the public sphere uh that 93.5 percent of people in this country are not muslims
00:27:41.040
you'd think that this was a broadly muslim country and this is why americans are constantly going on
00:27:45.520
about oh britain's been taken over by caliphate it's like no nowhere near actually it's just our government
00:27:51.760
love islam our state institutions love islam and they feel that it's essentially a form of virtue
00:27:58.320
signaling to signal to islam even though that's a tiny constituency of the population and they're
00:28:04.320
centered in major a couple of major urban areas so you travel most of the country you'll never see a
00:28:12.000
muslim go to bradford or manchester or somewhere like that yes you'll see lots of muslims um but they're
00:28:18.240
very disconnected from the rest of the country so it's very strange that the government has decided
00:28:22.720
no we're going to use these people to project out into the rest of the nation i mean for example
00:28:29.280
uh britain is 12 scottish you don't see a saint andrew's cross everywhere you don't hear about
00:28:36.240
scottish days of the holy days or holidays or anything like this uh you you don't hear it yet
00:28:41.200
there are twice as many scots as there are muslims in this country what is going on
00:28:44.640
why is this the case and i just wanted to explore that bit um but like i said there's a reason that
00:28:49.520
the americans think that we've been conquered uh king charles the royal family charles a famous
00:28:54.320
orientalist rumors that he's converted to islam i find plausible frankly um but it's probably not that
00:29:01.520
he's converted to islam it's probably just that he's had a kind of fetish for things from the east for
00:29:06.640
a long time and he has a wide open opportunity in the political environment to project that it's
00:29:14.320
completely fine and normal and accepted by all of the people around him to fetishize islam and
00:29:20.480
so to post things like this of course they don't post about lent no that was interesting i when i'm
00:29:25.520
we looked at the labor party they didn't seem to put any posts out for lent or for easter at all but
00:29:30.640
they were quite happy to do this yep that's exactly similarly when i was looking at aid murray i i
00:29:36.480
didn't see anything about lent on the royal family's websites either no and neither the labor party the
00:29:42.640
current governing well the current current governing party they have never made a post about lent a
00:29:48.640
similar image on both of those sites uh yeah yeah that it's a similar sort of it's almost looks as
00:29:55.520
though it's been coordinated by some aid mubarak public relations officer for the government yeah
00:30:01.440
undoubtedly has they've undoubtedly got some sort of islamic public relations you know the muslim council
00:30:07.920
of britain have recommended some little group or something i don't know you know i'm making this up
00:30:11.920
but like it's going to be something like that uh where they'll just get it's going right okay yeah this
00:30:17.360
this will be something that essentially promotes islam and muslims in britain and the labor party in many
00:30:23.920
constituencies rely on these and they're already losing muslim votes so this isn't going to work
00:30:29.040
it's not going to last i think there was a guardian article speaking about someone who was a cook a
00:30:35.200
chef during ramadan talking about his plight saying how no one knows about the plight of a chef during
00:30:40.960
ramadan and there was massive backlash everyone said no one cares i don't care again 6.5 of the population
00:30:48.320
you know i'd rather hear about haggis on burns night than hear about bloody aid mubarak from
00:30:54.400
bloody muslims uh but anyway no this the labor party of course like i said have never posted about lent
00:31:00.080
even though there are many more christians in britain than there are muslims but it doesn't
00:31:03.920
matter because that's not what this is about starma held this iftar event in parliament i don't know what
00:31:10.080
iftar is i don't care and i'm just amazed by the massive people behind that event yeah exactly you
00:31:16.400
you can see that starma is courting a client group yes here is a minority that we've brought into
00:31:21.200
britain and we're trying to keep on side but of course if the independent muslim mps the gaza
00:31:27.200
caucus has shown us anything they're not going to stay there and laymen know this this is electorally
00:31:33.760
just ridiculous it's suicidal yeah because they want the vote but if mass migration continues at some
00:31:41.360
point the other side is going to reach a critical mass and they're going to make parties of the
00:31:46.240
their own yes and they will want to get the votes and we're going to see that they're already i'm
00:31:50.800
just going to mute that but you see this sort of joy on his face sorry carry on like he's genuinely
00:31:55.200
thrilled to be doing this he's he he loves the fact that he gets to pander to a foreign minority group
00:32:01.120
but you're absolutely right they are they are going to start forming their own islamic party like
00:32:05.680
they've done in belgium uh and we are going to see that as being a core part of our politics going
00:32:11.440
forward how many have they got they've got four at the moment uh well five with jeremy corbyn five
00:32:15.600
with jeremy corbyn but once they get to it i think it's a level of 10 in in as mps they get a lot more
00:32:22.080
money a lot more funding and a lot more power within there as we saw with the that's why the
00:32:26.960
grouping of trying to make sure that reform didn't form a group of 10. and i can see that in the next
00:32:32.400
election i mean there's at least they're they're calculating was it 25 potential seats they can get if
00:32:38.240
they join together now so it's understandable why the labor party are essentially projecting
00:32:43.840
themselves as just being the party of islam as far as anyone would take from what they're saying here
00:32:50.640
again as inevitable west points out it's mother's day and lent but you choose ramadan of british mothers
00:32:56.000
and christians uh yes because isla labor want to frame themselves as the party of islam to capture
00:33:02.640
muslim votes however they aren't themselves muslims if i wanted if i was a muslim i want
00:33:08.640
muslim concerns represented in the british parliament why would i vote for an englishman
00:33:12.560
like keir starmer have you exactly have you ever seen a leftist trying to approach christianity
00:33:18.240
electorally maybe they have is just no the way i see it i just can't picture it i know you're exactly
00:33:24.240
they have no no no no they haven't they never do they hate christianity uh they only ever treat
00:33:28.800
it subversively but you're you're jumping the gun here when you get to this in a little bit but as
00:33:33.600
you can see kissed armor as the holy month of ramadan ends i wish muslims in the uk and across
00:33:37.520
the world a blessed and joyful eid al fitter eid mubarak oh well then that's so so unbelievably
00:33:45.760
progressive of uk uh anyway so the next one is of course the bbc now this was a bit of a strange
00:33:52.320
thing so as you can see here eid celebration can be lonely for muslim reverts and you might be thinking
00:33:58.880
what's a revert like i did think that i was very confused by it what what was so revert is a term
00:34:05.280
that some muslims use uh in fact you can see from the uh community note uh because they pretend that
00:34:13.440
they think that all people are in fact islamic until they stop being muslim and so if someone
00:34:19.360
converts to islam they're actually reverting to islam uh basically it's a very cheap way of talking
00:34:24.560
of talking past the sale and it's not persuasive to anyone and it's the kind of framing that only
00:34:30.320
exclusively exists within the islamic mindset of course because do jehovah's witnesses or is it
00:34:37.280
the seventh day eventist have something like you can only be one of them and they they're trying to
00:34:41.440
take all the blood samples are they maybe the opposite sides i i don't know um finding your true
00:34:47.280
self again but the point is you wouldn't do you wouldn't say this and you wouldn't call this
00:34:55.040
as you can say you can be lonely for muslim reverts as people of charity you wouldn't you
00:34:58.560
wouldn't portray this as being the framing of islam unless you weren't essentially within the mindset so
00:35:05.200
i'm actually really i was born a muslim and one day if i come back i'm a reaver that's what they'll claim
00:35:10.960
yes and like i said it's a very cheap way of talking past the sale and it's kind of embarrassing
00:35:16.080
actually because no one believes it but you'll notice that they changed the headline for the
00:35:20.080
actual article because there's a lot of backlash saying what are you an islamic institution now bbc
00:35:24.960
because this is the islamic narrative yeah this is the the the thing you say from the position of
00:35:30.160
being within islam and that would imply the bbc itself was of course an islamic thing again it's
00:35:37.760
it's a it's a very subtle and subversive thing and the backlash at least caused them to change it
00:35:44.640
um but what's interesting about this is that um this uh this one woman uh was a convert to islam
00:35:52.400
they actually use converted to islam in the article instead of revert but they say well it's isolating
00:35:57.840
and learning it's okay well they say when people come into islam they kind of lose themselves it's
00:36:04.000
they feel like they need to adapt to be someone else like for example it might be a new way of
00:36:08.320
cooking a new way of dressing we say look you can do that but be you can be who you are and so
00:36:13.840
basically what she's saying here is essentially i had to convert to arabic culture right that's
00:36:19.680
what's happening when they convert to islam and so hayley oliver from peterborough a different woman
00:36:25.440
i think tells us that she was 15 years old when she converted to islam in 1998 after being inspired
00:36:31.040
by her muslim friends it felt very isolated peterborough for anyone who doesn't know is one
00:36:36.320
of those towns that has a very sizable muslim majority that kind of usually uh occupy kind of
00:36:42.960
separate ethnic enclave in the town she says as a new muslim you're trying to find your feet
00:36:49.120
find your identity which is why you need support around you she says her family thought she'd been
00:36:53.920
brainwashed and she was kicked out of the house after the 9-11 attacks and she says you do feel
00:36:59.440
alone you don't feel totally accepted from the born muslims you don't feel accepted from at all from
00:37:05.040
your own kind isn't that interesting well that's right and i i don't see why that's a surprise for
00:37:11.680
her to accept that because most people when they are in different cultures like that particularly in
00:37:16.720
the middle east they do look differently upon those who are you know converted into theirs i mean i look at
00:37:24.160
and read a lot about malcolm x and his conversion the initial conversion they're actually very concerned
00:37:29.760
about him but once he was seen to be rising accepting islam he was suddenly accepted really
00:37:36.400
brutally and very very successfully because he he was now a marketing tool for them that's interesting
00:37:42.800
that um essentially there's still a hierarchy of validity inside of the religion and so she says
00:37:51.840
i question what am i who are my people and the answer is miss oliver you're english your people are the
00:37:57.920
english why have you gone over to the pakistanis and it's obviously because of social pressure because
00:38:04.000
of the diversification of the united kingdom and uh she says well look now i feel like reverts
00:38:09.200
do our own thing instead of looking for acceptance so what they've done is applied to this the intersectional
00:38:14.400
identity creation process this is now there's a now a separate identity called reverts and there's
00:38:20.400
a very small minority constituency within islam of reverts and they're all going to band together in like
00:38:25.840
online groups and things to essentially carve out a separate identity from muslim so you can see how
00:38:32.160
the subversive nature of leftism is already inside islam and chipping away at its foundations because i
00:38:39.840
can't see that happening for for long somehow i get a feeling that they may come down upon that very
00:38:45.120
very harsh maybe when they're in charge but uh who knows but the point is you can see the subversive
00:38:50.960
deconstructive nature of leftism everywhere even within islam which is why i've got a bet with a
00:38:56.160
friend of mine that actually islam's going to lose to social justice uh he doesn't think so and i guess
00:39:01.440
we'll see anyway so uh they they put she also points out that uh eid is quite boring and uh she
00:39:08.720
doesn't really like it but what are you gonna do so there was a there was a chap who writes for five
00:39:13.680
pillars uh who deleted a tweet so i can't i can't get i can't and obviously knew you were coming on
00:39:20.880
the show so he's gonna be ridiculed enough i don't know why he deleted this tweet i have it written
00:39:25.520
down i didn't take a screenshot of it unfortunately um and it's not on the way back machine something
00:39:30.160
it actually it wasn't a very extreme tweet or anything like that right uh he said the bbc has
00:39:35.120
changed this headline from revert to convert after right-wing nutters complained revert implied
00:39:39.600
we're not all born muslim right-wing nutters would be correct on that uh he says well facts are facts
00:39:47.280
we are all born in a state of islamic purity before many of us succumb to un-islamic ideologies again
00:39:53.520
talking process like no that's embarrassing i don't believe in islamic purity there's not such
00:39:58.240
i was just going to ask what is islamic purity there's no such thing it looks like some people
00:40:02.880
want to rediscover their childhood yeah become children again and they attach islam to it for some
00:40:08.080
reason it never works it never works you can't step into the same do you think taking on your
00:40:14.000
point about the the kind of leftism and the socialism being in inculcating itself across all the spectrum
00:40:20.160
of our society that they're now even when they're trying to speak like this islamic purity it's just
00:40:26.480
seeping through into their head in ridiculous sentences i mean maybe i certainly wouldn't there's
00:40:31.760
a lack of logic in that yeah uh but the but the point being uh no one believes you because i mean
00:40:37.920
you could just apply that to anything you know well all children are born in a state of buddhist purity
00:40:42.400
and you would have to come down to yeah but i have a an intrinsic prejudice towards islam because i'm
00:40:47.120
a muslim so okay but that guy's got an intrinsic prejudice towards buddhism because he's a buddhist how
00:40:51.280
there's no right or wrong here again it's just lazy propaganda but um but anyway so uh the bbc
00:40:58.400
big on islam uh 40 minutes of eid live from the central bradford uh bradford central mosque uh which
00:41:07.040
pick of the day apparently why why why are they doing this for six percent of the population where
00:41:13.120
is the saint andrew's day from edinburgh cathedral on bbc like what like this particular group is being
00:41:20.640
pushed very very hard by the bbc and they have been for years by the way here's a series name 2014
00:41:26.160
make me a muslim the documentary follows five girls they embrace islam so what what you're seeing
00:41:30.880
here the bbc is by far the largest media outlet in the united kingdom for anyone doesn't know
00:41:35.840
what you're seeing here is a subtle attempt at persuading people to go along with it
00:41:40.800
uh so not only is this framed incredibly positively it's a positive thing that all of these people are
00:41:45.920
discovering as they're reverting to islam but they gain status out of it they gain attention out of it
00:41:51.360
you'll get a bbc documentary that's in your favor published that millions of people will watch
00:41:57.120
i mean they're probably paid to do it it's amazing propaganda it's amazing isn't it amazing
00:42:01.600
propaganda yes saint andrew was far right no doubt that he was but you don't exactly you don't get uh
00:42:08.320
you know what was the scottish presbyterianism is it uh that's the scottish the scottish church
00:42:14.640
isn't it the church of scott yeah so you you don't have the the bbc trying to get people to
00:42:19.040
convert to presbyterianism even though they're twice the number of muslims in this country why
00:42:23.040
not why not my journey into presbyterianism apart from the fact that and anyway i'm just gonna make
00:42:29.200
a joke uh there's no need to make jokes about scottish presbyterian yeah i mean to scotland yeah
00:42:34.720
no i i mean like hey look i'm english like you know the church of england is fit for destruction at this
00:42:40.240
point but the the point being you can see how this is being put out not only with the intention of oh look
00:42:45.440
we just want to promote this person but also to show other people you have a path that you can
00:42:50.160
travel down to that will get affirmative uh responses from the establishment here starma will
00:42:56.720
start posting about your religion you'll get a thing with the bbc you'll be accepted by the
00:43:01.440
structures and the powers that be rather than being on the outside of that where you're just
00:43:05.680
ignored you're just called far right it's like celebrate mubarak for
00:43:09.440
for id mubarak for female liberation yeah kind of but that level of logic and plausibility but
00:43:16.640
it's not even that it's do you want to be within the circle of grace that is promoted by the state
00:43:22.080
because i tell you what english culture isn't go to they're building a massive mosque this i find
00:43:28.000
absolutely someone who loves the lake district i'm appalled by this how they've managed to get this
00:43:32.640
there are virtually no muslims yes that's right so this probably qatar funded mosque
00:43:37.600
uh has planning permission and uh this is pissed a lot of people off frankly um but notice how
00:43:45.120
the lead of this story far right group visit mosque site condemned yeah so do you want to be condemned
00:43:51.200
by the power that it should be you just some random individual who doesn't like what's happening
00:43:55.040
your country do you want to be condemned by these massive multi-million pound institutions the prime
00:44:01.040
minister the this the the sort of social elite of the country do you want to be condemned or do you
00:44:07.360
want to be praised where are the incentives which one are you going to find more appealing if you're
00:44:13.440
just some random person in the street you know and so i mean this is just just insufferable frankly
00:44:19.920
so there's a group of muslim doctors who are spearheading these plans uh britain first held a
00:44:24.000
demonstration outside of them with a banner saying no mosque here and they'd created a petition that uh to
00:44:29.760
revoke the planning permission that had been signed by 70 000 people uh but of course uh they're all
00:44:36.080
far right yeah they're all far right and nobody nobody cared um i think there was a thing in this as
00:44:40.800
well that was very interesting um which was uh that it were it had been uh there we go so apparently
00:44:49.920
supply chains were hesitant about being involved in the project and mr malik here says it's not that i
00:44:56.080
believe there was discrimination on their part i think they were more concerned about the
00:44:58.960
repercussions that it may have to their businesses yeah you're damn right if i thought that you were
00:45:04.080
part of a business that was complicit in building a giant mosque in the lake district i wouldn't i
00:45:08.400
wouldn't buy from you i'd buy from anyone else frankly like i'm sorry i this i think that's something
00:45:14.880
we need to start thinking about really anyway so how many people convert to islam every year this surely
00:45:20.800
represents an organic upswing in what the british people are like doesn't it doesn't it no probably
00:45:27.040
about 5 000 a year most of them women who marry muslim men now this is from 2013 this may have
00:45:32.560
changed i couldn't find anything more recent on the number of people who've converted to islam but
00:45:38.000
given how we've had millions of them immigrating here and the population is still only 6.5 percent
00:45:44.320
it suggests that the british public themselves are not on mass converting and so this is a very
00:45:48.800
artificial thing being promoted by the establishment uh the reason that these women mostly convert by
00:45:54.160
the way is they marry muslim men and they just say look you need to convert to islam so they do
00:45:57.920
um but even even the right wing like this in britain even the right wing in britain
00:46:04.560
genuflect to islam for example if you're a member of reform and you say that islam is a
00:46:10.720
false religion uh you will get uh suspended from the party if we can get the mirror up
00:46:18.800
there we go so uh this um this a candidate called miss thomas uh the sunday mirror learned that she
00:46:27.760
had repeatedly posted on facebook that islam is a false religion
00:46:33.440
so nigel farage took action against that where's the freedom of speech there mr farage it's not even
00:46:37.840
that how dare you not affirm islam you can't be a member of reform uh they and she she had posted an
00:46:43.920
online image claiming the muslim people are trying to take control of the uk and impose sharia law
00:46:48.000
well that is definitely true at least in parts of the country where they have de facto sharia law
00:46:54.000
in these areas and uh she had depicted it opposed another image that depicted islam as a snake devouring
00:47:00.880
the person feeding it from a bottle and after alerting the party to the post reform spokesman said
00:47:06.160
yes she's been fired out of a cannon into the sun uh she's been deselected and we're not uh
00:47:11.200
we've withdrawn all support for her candidacy uh and so great that's that's just great isn't it so
00:47:17.680
even the right-wing party the far right party as we hear from led by donkeys constantly uh will
00:47:24.640
fire you if you are critical of a religion but only one one religion only one religion that's true
00:47:32.400
i bet if they're critical of the church of england they won't get fired good point uh so the point is
00:47:37.920
the entire establishment seems to be desperate to affirm islam promote islam and get you to convert
00:47:44.480
to islam and so the answer is why why are they doing this the question is why uh and i think the
00:47:50.720
answer to that is because it has become socially unacceptable to push woke now the powers that be
00:47:58.160
and the institutions the universities i think that they want to do everything that is subversive against
00:48:04.000
the country undermine the morale of the native population to make it so they won't politically
00:48:09.440
organize in their own interests and they will end up essentially losing their own personal identities
00:48:15.680
and losing the collective identity of their countries and woke was a vector for them to do this
00:48:20.560
we can attack britain using woke well that's become unpopular people are no we're very aware of what
00:48:25.440
woke is now we're not having it you'll lose people's attention lose their business be unable to
00:48:31.600
spread propaganda to them and so now i think they've flipped and gone right okay well you're not you're
00:48:36.320
not racist it's not what it's not racist to be against woke but it is racist to be against islam
00:48:41.600
i think he uh what happens here is that the there is a backlash against woke in in the uk because of
00:48:49.600
islam and there was this contradiction between the the very left you know the trans stuff and the
00:48:56.720
the lgbtq plus wing of leftism and the more islam loving wing of leftism i think they only ever used
00:49:05.280
islam as a tool against the majority population though i don't think they really loved islam i think
00:49:12.640
though that they now the islamists are so many now and their numbers are growing and they see that
00:49:19.920
appealing to the lgbtq wing doesn't get them any sort of true support so in order for to not lose
00:49:28.320
the muslims there's also two funding arms the lgbtb wing is is very powerful economically but still
00:49:34.960
particularly in the us a lot of funding coming through as we know when you know when it came to
00:49:40.080
what they called equal marriage that was funded by people like elton john and those who were coming
00:49:44.560
over from the us who are actors and actresses over there and what you also have is a very powerful
00:49:50.080
economic wing of the islamists and you talked about who's funding the mosque that's we know where it's
00:49:56.000
come where the funding is coming from it's either saudi arabia it's the uae they're funding those and
00:50:00.800
qatar so they're all funding those mosques around the country because they see that as a way of having
00:50:06.560
their own external influence globally they're no different than what they saw turkey doing 300 years ago
00:50:12.320
under the ottoman empire this is their turn as they see it and the the leftists are the traitors
00:50:16.880
who are holding open the gates essentially uh essentially it's a kind of civilizational
00:50:21.360
shit test uh what they're saying is you will not stand up for yourselves and therefore we will destroy
00:50:27.200
you yeah um this is what it comes down to and so we kind of need to unapologetically say no you've
00:50:33.040
hit on an incredibly important point that i've been considering for quite some time is why do we not have a
00:50:38.640
definition that's legally enforceable in this country of what who is when you're called you are
00:50:44.000
a right-wing fascist or you are a racist the only person who's ever been able to take that on is lawrence
00:50:49.280
fox and he spent a lot of money and the court didn't decline to accept that the words used against him
00:50:55.440
were racist and indeed that you can lose your livelihood for being called racist and so we need to
00:51:03.200
have somebody with deep pockets to challenge that in the courts first of all push it all the way up
00:51:08.880
but if the courts simply decide against you then that leaves us legally defenseless
00:51:13.520
against these sorts true but what it also does it opens up a door and that door says that you no longer
00:51:18.960
accept that what is a clear definition of racism you're saying it's open-ended to however you feel
00:51:24.720
and that's unacceptable in today's common law and i i do believe we need to have somebody
00:51:30.480
who can take that challenge on anyway uh the point being i think that this is just part of the
00:51:37.280
continual subversive nature of the people who hate britain who somehow find themselves in charge of our
00:51:43.360
entire country uh next year says uh a couple of things i'll scroll down to find um uh sorry mark arabic
00:51:52.560
says ethno fetishism is the term take it freely good to see mr wolf again regards uh next year says this is
00:51:59.200
about undermining everything christian they hate christianity starman knows we're built on
00:52:03.520
christianity but to get to the utopia and the cultural revolution he wants he must undermine
00:52:07.200
christianity yeah this is the thing they don't love islam they just know it's a tool by which the
00:52:10.880
christians can be demoralized and destroyed and they think that if there is any kind of problem
00:52:15.920
in the future that they are going to be able to win uh yes but they don't think that there's going
00:52:22.000
to be that i'm sure that they think the muslims will essentially give up their faith in the same
00:52:26.720
way the christians did yeah um and in exo also says that christ is lord so um sigil stone says
00:52:33.600
we're all born in the state of islamic purity until we discover the corrupting power of bacon
00:52:37.280
no there's no such thing as in the state of islamic purity uh see in exo the uk needs its own
00:52:43.200
reconquista no we don't we're not controlled by muslims the muslims are a tiny percent of the
00:52:47.760
population it's just that the left-wing governments and establishments are using islam as a kind of
00:52:52.960
smokescreen to make you think this but it's just not true they're just giving them special privileges
00:52:59.120
anyway let's move on so what's happening in glasgow yeah i think i think this was when we
00:53:05.200
we come to what you're talking about somebody who absolutely no i don't know how to if you
00:53:12.080
you can teach me that for next next time but what we have here is another example of an
00:53:18.640
organization that hates the british state in this case it's the scottish national party
00:53:24.720
and they've made it explicit they're all about destroying england they don't like britain they
00:53:28.400
don't like england and one of the things i think they they caught on to is a long time ago was that
00:53:33.600
about refugees and asylum seekers so we have uh glasgow has been as you see here with scotland
00:53:41.680
standing together with the scottish refugee council which receives millions in in funding
00:53:47.760
from the state it says we stand together with refugees and as you slip down through there you'll
00:53:55.360
you'll see all these people saying aye to welcome refugees and as we're moving up through it again
00:54:01.680
going down to the the language that they're heading thanks so much um just underneath there
00:54:07.840
thanks so much for joining us together together with refugees now you look at that that's going back
00:54:12.560
to 2021 and there were hundreds of peoples gathering outside the trade hall with various organizations
00:54:18.480
the key fruits and i'll come back to that is a coalition of 300 organizations so refugee council
00:54:25.840
based in glasgow coming out supporting masses of refugees coming into scotland and then you go to
00:54:32.880
the next one we have the s p has welcomed asylum and uh a welcome welcome sign this was i found shocking
00:54:40.800
when doing the research on this was human traffickers and people smugglers with an asylum proposal
00:54:47.120
that allows asylum seekers to write to work in scotland as soon as they arrive amazing so you get here
00:54:55.280
and you can get a job and not only that those jobs are open in local authorities and guess what the
00:55:02.160
ngos and the organizations that are actually also being funded by those local authorities to help support
00:55:09.040
more refugees so you can get a job with the government or an ngo that's their proposals
00:55:16.240
and they were labeled absurd as we we come through it's in the scottish daily express on this so you'll
00:55:21.600
see that there are various people who oppose this but then we go on to the next one is the scottish
00:55:28.000
government it comes down here and we slow this we believe refugees this is the asylum and refugees
00:55:33.440
from the scottish government ministry of equalities that refugees and people seeking asylum should be
00:55:38.640
welcomed i i think that we've seen that kind of welcome in britain it's our historical element i
00:55:43.920
accept that there's a need sometimes to support and integrate into our communities from day one so
00:55:51.120
what did they do they created a new scots refugee integration strategy sorry i just hate this new scots
00:55:59.200
all right yeah right so he has lots of organizations again once ago the scott's scottish government uh
00:56:09.040
the coslo which is basically the all the local authorities in scotland scottish refugee council
00:56:15.760
partnered with public private and third sector that third sector is a phrase i've always disliked it's
00:56:21.200
just basically an opportunity for people to receive funding from local authorities where they wouldn't get
00:56:27.680
funding from the taxpayer in the first place but we can give it down and when we look at who they are
00:56:32.480
so we have the refugee council and i think i went down to an image that said um after after that that
00:56:38.720
showed uh that 300 organizations uh going through um i think we might go on to that um the the basic
00:56:48.880
principle is what you're looking at is scotland has built itself around this idea that we're going to
00:56:54.080
accept refugees we're big and welcoming we've created a new integration strategy which shows
00:57:00.080
that we can try and get you into work we want a policy to enable you to have jobs as soon as you
00:57:05.840
arrive look how well we are and i'm going to move on so before we move on i just there's something about
00:57:12.560
the new scott that i'm i'm hung up on that i can't get past that's that that's exactly that is exactly one
00:57:20.160
of the points that i'm looking oh sorry am i no you're no you're right and i'm glad you've picked
00:57:24.160
up on that because that was one of the things that i found absolutely fascinating i find it kind
00:57:29.280
disgusting scottish is a costume yeah but not not only that like who are the new scots well they're
00:57:35.920
anyone that's the thing a refugee is not anyone from any one place right it's it's anyone from anywhere
00:57:40.480
but like if i if i went to greece i wouldn't call myself a new greek no because it seems very i use greece
00:57:46.320
all the time because i really like greece and you're greek uh and so it's it's like it's a
00:57:51.680
convenient thing to use right but i out of respect i wouldn't try and essentially eliminate the
00:57:58.320
boundary of what makes someone greek compared to what's to someone not being greek right
00:58:04.960
it is it's mostly disrespectful it's disrespectful to scotland but this is planned
00:58:10.000
it's part it's just a view that they see newcomers all being welcomed as scottish as if
00:58:16.160
they are the kind of historical element that goes all the way back to those who fought the romans
00:58:22.640
who were up there fighting the danes as if that sort of person is a scot and what i see from it is
00:58:29.040
actually a view that we're we're dismissing history yeah there's no ancestry here there's no dna you're
00:58:35.680
just scottish because you're living in scotland changing yeah it's like you can be whoever you want
00:58:42.080
to be you support another team yeah there's something more to it than that though because
00:58:47.200
the they do this with sweden and germany as well which are themselves quite strong identities right
00:58:53.760
you know it's it's obvious what a swede is and what a german is it's obviously what a scot is and
00:58:58.000
so they go okay these are new scots a subcategory of scots but they never say the new english right
00:59:03.760
whereas english is quite a weak identity these days and i find it but it's also
00:59:08.320
kind of undesirable identity for them they don't like the english whereas you can see they like the
00:59:16.160
scots and so because of a kind of favoritism that the state displays towards scotland and like the
00:59:22.320
scotch national party and the scotch government like they're they're actually essentially destroying
00:59:27.920
the nature of scotch identity but passing us over because they assume our identity is essentially dead
00:59:33.440
well i think that fits in to where i i trailed back in history to where do i think that they
00:59:41.120
really started en masse to attack the british culture and being english and that goes back to
00:59:47.440
barbara roche's speech when she was home secretary in 2001 where where she put out a statement that we're
00:59:54.960
all immigrants in britain yes and from that point on she then led it with three speeches and various
01:00:01.600
organizations over the next two years and that mantra that you know all brits were immigrants
01:00:08.400
was the point at which they then start to talk about integration accepting more people and the
01:00:13.920
british culture is nothing about where we were background and i see this new scots as an element
01:00:19.920
of exactly that extension we now need to go and say there's no welsh there's no scots but what this is
01:00:25.920
doing is essentially to say that the welsh and the scots and of course the english have no right to their
01:00:30.720
own country right no no you're a nation of immigrants like we're not the united states
01:00:35.280
you've taken this narrative wholesale from america but we aren't the american i mean the welsh in
01:00:39.520
particular have been here since time immemorial the english have been here for a thousand five hundred
01:00:43.440
years and the scots were about the same so it's it's just a way of disinheriting us from our ancient
01:00:50.080
lands although i would would say and i'm going to argue when i'm when my book is eventually published on
01:00:54.640
on this particular issue that the what will hate the scots and the welsh will hate is that they were the
01:00:59.440
first english because it was us fighting uh the romans and us fighting the danes that pushed ourselves
01:01:06.400
out to wales to cornwall and to scotland we were the originals so they were actually the first english
01:01:13.040
well i wouldn't call these over the britons right yeah but well i i accept that we only became really
01:01:18.720
english once we we started to get the english kings coming in we had the formation of it it's literally
01:01:23.280
the anglo-saxons that's right the the old english word for the the uh ethnic anglo-saxons was angleson
01:01:30.080
and that's where english come have you ever been to angleson i've got a story about that i can say
01:01:35.920
offline but if we go back then i want to go on to to the next next next next uh link
01:01:44.480
after that we we have this now this has been coming for a while and i find this you've got to link it
01:01:50.880
into the two things we've just been talking about first of all we have glasgow saying we welcome
01:01:57.120
refugees we're a sanctuary city look how brilliant they are we can bring them in second we're going
01:02:02.480
to create an integration process for the new scots we're going to give them jobs and opportunities
01:02:07.360
but by the way now there are more of them coming in and the council's costing uh says it's costing
01:02:14.480
them tens of millions as homeless refugees are granted asylum into into the into the country and
01:02:21.520
that's because not only are they being dispersed from the government in terms of dispersal programs
01:02:28.160
like the afghan refugee resettlement scheme but they're also being dispersed under the scheme for
01:02:34.880
housing where asylums arrive and mere's group is one of the biggest groups that organizes
01:02:39.920
housings in scotland they're filling up the hotels but as the country is and this is exactly what
01:02:47.520
they've been wanting it goes through the asylum process grants so many of them the right to remain
01:02:54.240
they're staying in scotland they're absolutely staying in scotland and that's where they're
01:02:58.160
getting their money and that's it because what does the scottish government got and i don't know
01:03:02.320
whether i had this down in the in an image or not after this um or whether it's just another link but
01:03:08.880
there is a really important point about um oh this is right so it goes on they brought it on
01:03:14.080
themselves i think this should be an image coming up about the fresh talent initiative we get that
01:03:20.720
please samson and it was just a link that i put in just because the fresh talent initiative you've
01:03:25.680
just gone through the link to it the fresh talent initiative goes back to 2010 feeds in with the new
01:03:33.120
scottish initiative and it says just as a summary if we don't get that look at scotland our population
01:03:40.800
is declining we therefore need to bring in more people into the country and therefore fund it for
01:03:47.280
our taxes to help get all of these in so we're linking into that so we do have what i view is a very
01:03:54.480
core strategy of scotland to displace the scots and here it is fresh talent initiative this fostered
01:04:03.200
development of a more inclusive attitude towards refugees and a real difference between scottish
01:04:08.960
politics and that of westminster westminster that recognizes at that particular time that we should
01:04:14.880
try and manage my immigration and look at controlling costs scotland saying we need to attract more skilled
01:04:21.840
migrant workers then they have the new scots initiative the reality they're now going back
01:04:27.760
onto this what they're going is they're not getting the skilled migrants really yeah not at
01:04:33.360
all giving a bunch of handouts didn't attract skilled migrants this happens across europe
01:04:38.160
and and i will go into that now this in this image and this is one of the reasons why they're
01:04:42.240
struggling because right at the top there scotland abolished the priority need tests over a decade
01:04:48.080
ago part of that strategy of bringing in the new scot part of the new initiative to bring in more
01:04:54.800
people into scotland so they said if you're unintentionally homeless now it's not down to
01:04:59.840
people who live in the area in glasgow or in aberdeen it's open to everybody the priority need is gone
01:05:06.880
really so that that may well have attracted lots of people from elsewhere to come and live in glasgow
01:05:12.720
which then so and you're right yeah look at the bottom there in a letter to dame angela councillor
01:05:18.400
alan casey one says nearly one thousand of the refugees who've accessed glasgow's homelessness services
01:05:24.880
have been living elsewhere in the uk well done you played yourselves and that's it
01:05:29.840
that is the point the that they now beginning to recognize in scotland that by opening their arms to
01:05:36.640
the unskilled having changed your laws to allow anybody to claim housing that all the asylum
01:05:43.680
seekers are living in different parts of the country are going well it's really difficult living here
01:05:47.200
it's not very nice they're not giving me free money i'm not getting a house yeah i'm living in a hostel
01:05:52.240
i'm living in a bed and breakfast didn't you hear about scotland if you go up there in a homelessness
01:05:57.440
you can now get up there and get a house amazing and now they're facing it and you've got this potential
01:06:02.720
risk and what's what what are what are the scots doing are they saying we recognize now it's causing
01:06:10.320
social incohesion oh are we going to be surprised by that no local scots are now angry about it you
01:06:17.600
see in northern ireland where you've where you've got protestants and catholics coming together saying
01:06:23.040
there's too many what they're worried about is protestant and catholics are coming together in glasgow
01:06:27.760
where they've had the old enemies to say this and they're now seeing this politically
01:06:33.040
their solution is not to stop the refugees it is about asking britain for more money
01:06:39.680
angela eagle give us tens of millions of the english money to fund our pet project i mean that's just
01:06:47.040
historically normal for the scots to require english money after they've messed up their own economy and
01:06:52.160
require us to bail them out that's how britain was formed in the first place but i think this feeds into
01:06:57.520
what you're talking about this is you can see from the back documents that i we put up there this
01:07:02.720
cohesive plan that they've created in around 2000 to 2010 this is the blair years this is where they
01:07:10.320
wanted to destroy england want to destroy britain and the way they could do that with mass immigration
01:07:16.400
because on one hand you had big corporate saying well you're not producing enough babies therefore we've
01:07:21.120
got a population decline so that fits in with big business but it also fits in with the socialist
01:07:26.000
ideal of destroying britain yes it does uh sorry um cranky texan says the trouble with scotland is
01:07:36.240
it's full of scots that's unironically the position of the scottish government
01:07:44.240
chris fitchins once predicted that this would happen but i don't think anyone expected it to be
01:07:48.240
so bad yeah so this i i find this just remarkable how scottish people are still so goddamn woke yeah
01:07:58.320
they're a really woke country and so okay but i mean i kind of wish scotland had got its independence
01:08:04.800
at this point because then at least it wouldn't be our problem we wouldn't have to pay for it but look
01:08:08.960
here we are we've got to pay for this because the scots aren't going to bloody pay for it well they're not
01:08:13.360
and my my issue with it is if we'd given scotland independence unfortunately we would have had to
01:08:17.760
build a wall as big as that being seen across mexico because there aren't that much there isn't a huge
01:08:24.480
economy out there yeah there isn't this land of nirvana that the smp thinks it's actually a country
01:08:30.320
funded predominantly by us yes through our taxpayers we give a precept that is far bigger for them than
01:08:36.000
they would accept and if their economy was to collapse particularly if we're looking now
01:08:39.120
yeah with the world changing on there they'd have to go to the eu begging for money who's the fat
01:08:45.840
smp mp ian something it's really really annoying smp mp oh yeah who's i can't remember the guy's name
01:08:56.080
ian blackstone or something blackwell i think it's just in black blackwell isn't it black maybe i can't
01:09:01.360
remember but i i remember seeing a clip of him a couple of years ago in parliament saying that scotland
01:09:07.200
was subsidizing england i was just like how has this guy come to this conclusion like there's just
01:09:12.880
no evidence for this it's just preposterous anyway have we got video comments they samson
01:09:21.600
russian says fantastic see stephen back again well there we go uh thank you
01:09:25.920
no okay um chase says uh we've banned and imprisoned the pen for embezzlement great but how is that good
01:09:40.320
for liberal democracy liberal democracy uh yeah that's that's really not what it's about is it
01:09:47.200
so i don't know what's going on my throat today optional scott says clearly andrew tate influencing
01:09:51.760
the british government to be more islamic uh well the the thing i'm so tired of hearing about andrew
01:09:58.160
tate at this point like that he he really is being vastly overstated yeah i think so yeah yeah and this
01:10:06.640
is why it feeds into them it feeds into this misogynist argument i think yes he's got a huge
01:10:11.040
number of followers what i understand i've actually to be honest never watched any of his shows some
01:10:16.800
elements about being living a clean life not taking drugs looking after yourself in the gym
01:10:21.760
all of them seem pretty positive aspects for young men to follow yeah but he's got a lot of stuff that's
01:10:26.720
not good then i but that's that's all i have but the other side i've not really looked upon at all i
01:10:31.680
don't think you're missing anything but i don't where do i really see this mass influence from him
01:10:36.240
to be honest i think it's just is it there is it really there am i just missing something there
01:10:41.120
it probably is that for young men oh is it probably yeah right okay no i think that there is one but um
01:10:48.720
the what has happened is that within schools teachers have sort of portrayed him as the devil
01:10:56.640
right and this makes lots of men young men especially in lots of uh people in schools
01:11:04.400
channel their rebelliousness towards accepting the devil because teacher told me not to
01:11:12.720
and there is also the whole culture that tries to feminize men to a ridiculous extent
01:11:18.080
and the pendulum swings way to the other side sigil stone says i disagree they are getting the
01:11:25.520
skilled migrant labor this is the extent of the skills and why they are being useful to the state
01:11:29.600
that point uh george says the state may be promoting islam to create ethnic conflict and
01:11:35.360
make normies easier to control that or they are ideologically possessed loons who place islam higher
01:11:40.080
on the oppression pyramid than any other religion so it's a combination of both of these things the
01:11:44.880
thing is i think the one thing we need to remember is that the people doing this are true believers in
01:11:50.560
liberalism right so i i had an afghan taxi driver the other day uh and i was trying to we ended up talking
01:11:57.600
about politics somehow he brought up politics and and so i was like yeah yeah no no you know i'm
01:12:03.360
against like you know i was against the islamic uh the invasion of afghanistan and he was like well
01:12:08.480
that's why i've come here because you've ruined my country i'm like okay fair enough and he kind of
01:12:12.960
accepted that the mass of people coming here was ruining ours uh and uh this was his argument and i was
01:12:19.920
like okay yeah fair enough but i think that's true um but he he wouldn't believe me when i told him
01:12:26.560
that they genuinely believe in democracy and they went over there genuinely to nation build because
01:12:31.760
a lot of them did he was like well it's about the resources like well what resources do you have
01:12:35.600
you know i mean like you know he didn't believe that they genuinely thought that all people were
01:12:44.400
the same and that all cultures were the same and that essentially you could build a liberal democracy
01:12:49.360
out of anything uh because that sounds stupid when you say it like that it sounds just really
01:12:54.320
ridiculous and yet i i genuinely think that keir starmer thinks that i genuinely think that they
01:13:00.160
believe that this is the the political panacea that resolves all civilizational conflicts do you
01:13:07.200
think this is going back to this kind of ideology of the church the church of england when it was like
01:13:11.920
proselytizing across the globe in the 1516 where he thought he could turn any native into a catholic
01:13:20.080
and ignore what they did so if we didn't like them we just killed them butchered them and burnt
01:13:25.280
what was going on so we've gone out there to afghanistan and blown it all up but eventually
01:13:30.320
they'll convert to liberal democracy and have no ramifications i think it's uh even more complex
01:13:36.720
than that because religious feeling and religious belief is just an internal issue
01:13:41.760
that's mostly what it is obviously there's the ritualistic aspect that the ritualistic aspect
01:13:50.000
is an aspect of buying of adopting a culture and practicing it but the the religious culture and
01:13:58.480
the whole let's say english culture or scottish culture are just macro cultures whereas the religious
01:14:04.240
one is a so more particular one much easier to adopt i think i think there's also a kind of element
01:14:10.560
of power seeking in it right because i think they look at it as if um if we are the we are the
01:14:18.000
the connection to power that the muslims have they can't abandon us and so we'll always have
01:14:22.560
a reliable constituency in them i think there's also an element of that as well in addition to what you
01:14:27.040
suggested it's uh jimbo says look how much humza hates anyone that doesn't bend the knee to his tribe
01:14:32.800
it's a disgrace that he was the leader of a western country uh yeah it's just insufferable i just
01:14:38.080
i'm so tired of like just like do you see the thing that two two mps have been banned from entering
01:14:46.320
israel or something they're both foreigners they're both immigrants it's like why do we have immigrant
01:14:51.120
mps i don't mean to sound too rude but like isn't that a concern like aren't we worried that if like
01:14:56.560
foreign people can just move here and take over what's the what what stops the chinese communist
01:15:01.120
party just saying right okay we're gonna send 20 million people to britain get elected in any
01:15:05.600
constituency what we want and then we'll have a ccp-controlled britain what stops it the answer
01:15:10.960
is at the moment nothing it's it's funny you say that i i spoke to someone who's a kind of non
01:15:16.160
non-commissioned security analyst for the uk who's saying that the fact that we've got one of the
01:15:20.640
rising largest rising groups of people coming over here the chinese is exactly that and we should be
01:15:26.560
worried about the hong kong yes because many of them are coming up they've got an opportunity to have
01:15:31.120
750 000 of them come over here yeah and at the moment we see them banding around in certain
01:15:36.480
constituencies warrington for example has become one of the biggest areas
01:15:40.880
no i'm not going to go out and say all these hong kong people no no i'm sure chills to the chinese
01:15:45.200
not but not at all i think that'd be but that's the point the point is that some people are beginning
01:15:50.240
to start getting concerned about this mass in certain areas there needs to be some sort of hard
01:15:55.280
boundaries i mean what are what are two labor mps doing going to israel when they've both got
01:16:00.880
obviously the social media history saying we hate israel it's actually completely understandable
01:16:04.720
israel like you guys hate us we're not letting you in i actually do support israel down the piss off
01:16:09.680
you know i bet they've got lots of stuff on their twitter feeds about hating britain as well
01:16:14.880
which we could do the same anyway north fc zuma says uh the legal system is supposed to be a
01:16:19.680
projection of the moral will of the people it governs it's just another reason diversity is a weakness
01:16:23.680
because the people have no form of united morality that's actually a great point one one one thing
01:16:29.120
that midwits say is oh well the laws is not not selling morality is it it's like well if laws have
01:16:34.160
no connection to morality why do why do we not have worse laws or better laws like we we have laws that
01:16:39.440
we think are connected to right and wrong which are moral questions anyway ken says uh if foreigners
01:16:46.480
are just as british as you uh then islamists are just as christian as you and me it's like well
01:16:50.880
that's the point ultimate is they want to homogenize everything into a universal human
01:16:55.680
type and so all religions will basically fit the same mold all people basically fit the same mold
01:17:01.360
all culture will basically be the same and then the managerial liberal state can actually finally
01:17:06.480
administer the universe exactly as it intends which is kind of a horrific future isn't it
01:17:11.440
this is incredibly scary i'd love to have v for vendetta back on that yeah yeah um
01:17:21.760
sorry richard i can't actually pass your comment lots of babylon cordoned off every end do you mean
01:17:29.200
police i'm sorry i have no idea what you're talking about there uh david says the use of revert makes
01:17:34.640
sense when you understand the arabic term muslim means true believer in arabic uh when you call someone
01:17:40.080
muslim you're calling them a true believer uh they believe you're born a true believer and so to
01:17:44.800
them it makes sense to have reverts not converts your own reverend calvin robinson understands this
01:17:49.200
which is why we shouldn't call them muslims uh this comes across as an affirmation of their belief
01:17:54.080
call them mohammedians as they are the followers of muhammad they are not true believers well that's uh
01:17:59.360
actually quite a spicy take uh uh there's actually a fair point on that um so owl says england is now
01:18:12.000
england is islamic now section my god man like we need to get you guys to pass your comments better
01:18:18.720
because i can't understand what you're saying uh stuart says there should be a lot of meps sweating
01:18:23.520
bullets right now because the eu has just told them they will be next but that's the thing isn't it
01:18:27.040
yeah the le pen thing they're not going to be next no they're leaders of a far-right party they're
01:18:31.680
only going to pick out those that they can think that they can damage and my view is now that they've
01:18:36.640
got their eyes on hungary with this case they they will be looking at the meps who are within marie
01:18:42.560
le pen's group and also those who are connected to hungary to find something similar to attack them
01:18:47.520
they've taken down romania they've taken down france i think they've also done the same they're
01:18:52.240
trying to do the same in portugal at the moment and we we saw one of the great leaders was uh
01:18:58.560
cuts who is in austria really challenging very radical much more than bardello was they they
01:19:04.080
decapitated him incredibly quickly he's just disappeared totally from politics yeah and the
01:19:10.640
point being if you were a right-wing politician in europe the law is against you and be aware of it
01:19:15.920
don't give them an opportunity um jimbo says the bbc has been doing everything to promote the
01:19:21.600
islamic takeover this month they celebrated celebrating a contestant on gladiators wearing
01:19:26.480
a hijab you can see what i mean it's just absolutely everywhere like they've already decided what's best
01:19:32.800
for us we just have to continually be nudged in the right direction and that's the point that's what
01:19:36.880
they're trying to do is i just i can't i can't take it man like 6.5 of the population we have to hear
01:19:44.640
about them all day every day from the government in the bbc um eloise says the problem is we've
01:19:49.760
always had feuding tribes and religions so framework diversity and multiculturalism to
01:19:54.240
accommodate for heathenism atheism polytheism christianity catholicism etc uh it was always
01:19:59.280
understood that they had certain principles in common now completely foreign religions which correlate
01:20:03.280
more highly more highly to harms and oppressions our culture disdains uh can't be questioned and get
01:20:08.480
defended under the same principles of be accommodating uh yes um obviously but the the issue is why are
01:20:16.080
the government choosing this outside religion to essentially project to the rest of the country
01:20:22.720
i mean it's not orthodox christianity they view that as essentially a white religion that's really
01:20:30.080
an an interesting issue that people are evading and it's just history that they're ignoring because
01:20:36.560
within christianity the protestants and the catholics were slaying each other for what 135 years
01:20:44.640
so you don't have to go to further cultures and which have additional problems when it comes to
01:20:52.640
coexisting within christianity there was a massive slaughter for 130 years
01:20:59.360
yeah but they don't care yeah because they again they're viewing this through the leftist lens of
01:21:05.920
majorities and minorities right yeah so the the christians they view as a majority the muslims there are
01:21:11.280
as a minority and also they have extra axes of oppression i mean kevin points out well you can't be racist against islam
01:21:18.240
it's like yeah but in the leftist mind you can be racist against islam because they for them islam codes as a brown religion uh and so
01:21:27.040
it's it's it's a kind of ethno cultural religion so any criticism of islam is fundamentally in some
01:21:34.560
way racist uh and the fact that islam exists as a minority religion in the uk itself is a form of
01:21:40.080
racism so it's a double racism yeah well exactly undefined racist term but he also thinks that the
01:21:47.120
numbers converting to islam in the uk have been growing rapidly well with these kind of incentives
01:21:50.960
why wouldn't there be like again and colin again the risk of pedantry why do you keep using racism
01:21:56.640
to defend islam and its religion because it's not really a religion like it's really the political
01:22:01.920
system of a certain culture which is 7th century arabia um like i don't i don't consider islam actually
01:22:09.200
very religious at all it seems to be designed to capture and wield power
01:22:14.240
so just seems to be the case uh lucas says uh never mind whether the ruling was just or not
01:22:22.560
i don't think the punishment is severe enough for defaulting millions of the euros yeah yeah i agree
01:22:27.200
i agree they're doing it just to prevent her from running um optional scots uh earlier says i can't
01:22:32.640
wait for you to cover glasgow because obviously he's in glasgow and he says i'm in the process of
01:22:36.720
moving out of glasgow one of the really surprising things is that half the house viewers i had come in
01:22:40.800
were indians that only had arrived in the last month well there you go and they'll be if they're
01:22:46.480
arriving in the last month they're either coming through to students or they're coming on the work
01:22:50.320
permit visas because that's the biggest route for indians but what you do find in some of the research
01:22:56.160
that i'm looking at at the moment is showing how many of those actually renege on those visas as soon
01:23:02.080
as they get them and and this is just an aside as i was doing this research about um what they call
01:23:07.760
displacement policy when i looked on the statistics for the home office but they come the asylum
01:23:14.240
displacement figures i punched in glasgow for 2014 the 2023 which is suddenly stopped on the 25th of
01:23:22.160
july but it only had under the government's displacement problems of vulnerable persons of 528
01:23:28.320
people displaced to scotland i've immediately written to the home office this morning saying can you
01:23:34.560
explain the discrepancy where you have uh glasgow saying they've got 6 400 this year can i have all
01:23:41.280
the numbers going back to 2014 and which data are you showing this and i think there's a gap i think
01:23:46.960
they're trying to hide where these numbers and who they are going to which local authorities all over
01:23:50.560
the country and even then they're kind of assuming that the people will just stay in that area well what
01:23:56.080
if they don't well as we can see yeah glasgow they're not exactly exactly we know exactly that
01:24:00.560
they're not so i can just everything about this is just like it's designed to fail at every level
01:24:07.680
isn't it um but uh baron van warhawk says uh the new scottish new irish new welsh why do we need new
01:24:13.440
celts what was wrong with the old celts so well don't get me started but the uh the point being even
01:24:19.680
with all of their problems they deserve what they have um josh says uh it's just going to have
01:24:26.880
to be eric's more who happens to be my third cousins husbands aunts cousins second cousins
01:24:32.000
husbands once removed i don't believe that um yeah and what once interesting north north fc
01:24:41.120
zuma says look scotland is so woke because they're still majority scottish by like 90 or something like
01:24:48.880
that and that's probably true and the reason that the liberal democrats have got anything in the uk is
01:24:54.640
because the southwest is mostly still english um this changes as the diversity sort of spreads across
01:25:01.200
the country um orland says the demographics in the last census in dalton in furnace where the mosque
01:25:07.520
is being built makes the story even more egregious uh 11 muslims to 4 221 christians even the buddhist
01:25:15.440
outnumber the muslims it's insane it is insane and i look at scotland and i do do wonder
01:25:22.560
whether this kind of wokeness and this idea for supporting migrants welcome is just a way of
01:25:28.400
attacking britain and i think it is i think they're using that kind of smoke screen to be able to damage
01:25:34.080
they look at the difference between us and aren't they a nasty nation and we should separate something i
01:25:40.080
particularly dislike is uh during christmas when they say you shouldn't say merry christmas you
01:25:45.360
should say happy holidays why would i do that yeah yeah but they do say it especially in in business
01:25:51.600
environments i make it absolutely clear it's happy christmas not merry christmas i know there's an
01:25:56.320
argumentative why is a happy christmas well apparently happy christmas is supposed to be part of the
01:26:01.600
original oh is it part of christianity merry christmas was something that was created in relation to
01:26:06.080
marketing tools that's what i was told they they don't want christmas in that's why they say no i
01:26:11.600
don't want christmas because they don't want to mention the word christ and once again disenfranchised
01:26:17.440
our historical religious roots yeah and i think all of it is based around resisting the majority culture
01:26:23.920
in order to make sure there is what they consider to be a kind of equality in the country because
01:26:28.480
obviously if 90 percent of the country is not muslim then the six percent of the country that is muslim
01:26:34.480
is going to kind of be culturally subsumed by the vast majority it's like yeah but that's
01:26:38.880
how things ought to be like sorry you know what what no instead that we're going to make them the the
01:26:44.320
kind of the the north star of our cultural life are we that's crazy uh and going to create a huge
01:26:51.520
amount of resentment i don't know what they think they're doing frankly uh rex says uh i got a shout
01:26:57.280
out on viva fry show last night for the base takes on tariffs i have a base take on tariffs i can't
01:27:01.680
remember what my takes on the tariffs were is it yours or is it dance it might have been dance
01:27:05.840
that dan is very pro tariff i'm not some i'm not you're not so pro tariff but it's okay that's
01:27:11.840
he got a shout out and why are you not pro tariff i'm not necessarily just just not for it just it's a
01:27:18.480
huge discussion okay we need to get into it then we'll get into it uh caroline uh sends the link which
01:27:26.400
is with the note is bad when the government are pushing islam but i find it worse than the schools
01:27:31.040
pushing on children like at my daughter's school oh god i'm gonna hate this link aren't i let me
01:27:35.200
load this up and have a look oh god yeah so yeah it's it's it's woke islam they've got uh essentially
01:27:46.640
just her daughter's school it's just woke islam i'm not gonna go any further than that on it but like
01:27:52.960
it's insufferable absolutely insufferable uh kevin says andrew tate is bad because he's a misogynist
01:27:59.600
who abuses and mistreats women the average mosque imam good even though he promotes misogyny and
01:28:03.520
mistreatment of women and andrew tate is a muslim himself as well so uh yeah but uh chase says isn't
01:28:10.800
the new scots a tacit admission of internet intentional replacement well yeah i mean that's
01:28:15.360
that's what we've been saying and that's exactly the point they've been making so scotland's losing
01:28:18.400
this population we need new scots to replace them so don't call it a replacement that's right just call
01:28:24.800
them new scots yep you know don't change the name from scotland to islamland yeah and this is
01:28:32.480
this is another thing that like the whole if you think of the whole framing of the entire discussion
01:28:37.840
drives me mad and you can tell that this has come from america because of the way that it's been done
01:28:42.480
because of course the americans are named after the landmass america right some italian explorer called
01:28:47.520
amaringo or something uh discovered it called it america and then people moved there and called
01:28:51.440
themselves americans well that's the opposite of how it happened in the old world actually the
01:28:55.840
anglo-saxon tribes moved to britain and we call it england the land is named after the people not
01:29:01.280
the people after the land so you can't just bring in immigrants to scotland and say well these are
01:29:05.520
scots no that's not how it works uh the land is named after the people not the people after the land
01:29:10.160
so these new people who come in are just foreigners they're not scottish because the scots gave their name
01:29:15.680
to the place uh and that's how that works over here in the old world and that's how it's always worked
01:29:21.440
uh and that's not how it works in the new world and that's how you can see this is a new world import
01:29:26.000
not good anyway that's all from us for today so thank you very much for joining us folks we'll be
