Hello and welcome to the podcast of The Lotus Eaters, episode 1195 for Thursday the 26th of June 2025.
00:00:08.540
I'm your host Luke Kirk, joined today by Beau and Stephen.
00:00:12.720
And today we're going to be talking all about Palestine action, getting prescribed, getting what they deserve.
00:00:20.440
We're also going to talk about New York, kind of also getting what it deserved with a new Sadiq Khan, its own Sadiq Khan.
00:00:27.580
And then we're going to wrap up by talking about the Independent Task Force, looking at what's causing all of the social unrest and riots in the UK.
00:00:41.080
Just happens to be staffed by everyone in the establishment, that's all.
00:00:49.700
Okay, yeah, well, yeah, we'll talk a little bit.
00:00:54.100
Yeah, we'll talk a little bit about Palestine action and the government's response and the whole world, or Britain at least, our response to it.
00:01:01.800
It's interesting how revealing it is, what people think about the topic, about the issue.
00:01:07.020
So, first of all, before I really get stuck in, I need to mention a new show that's come on, on lowseaters.com.
00:01:14.540
It is behind the paywall, so if you're interested, go to the website, just £5 a month, become a bronze tier member, and get RealPolitik, RealPolitik, with Firas Modad.
00:01:29.540
He really does know his onions when it comes to geopolitics.
00:01:33.060
I hope to make some content with him myself, actually.
00:01:52.520
This is in RAF Briers Norton, the biggest RAF station in Britain, in Oxfordshire, southern England.
00:02:09.820
They're a refuelling plane, mid-air refuelling plane.
00:02:15.060
We haven't got a giant fleet of them, and they're absolutely vital for sort of projecting power across the world.
00:02:25.620
So, it is part of our defence and foreign policy.
00:02:42.800
So, before we go on to do any sort of analysis, just say what happened.
00:02:47.800
So, they crept onto RAF Briers Norton, onto the actual airstrip there, and did what they did.
00:02:55.540
And then left, got away without being caught or apprehended.
00:03:01.800
And it was only, I think, when they posted their own clip, because they're filming themselves here, obviously.
00:03:08.860
It was only when they posted it, the powers that be, the police, the RAF Briers Norton, the Home Office or whatever, Ministry of Defence, were like, oh, really?
00:03:18.520
If you go down to Briers Norton today, you know, they didn't know.
00:03:23.300
So, do we know how many, you know, soldiers, men were staffing, were just on guard at the time?
00:03:29.800
Well, OK, well, I was going to leave that element till last.
00:03:36.000
So, first of all, my first reaction when I heard about this was exactly that.
00:03:41.860
Even really small RAF bases are heavily guarded, whenever I've seen them.
00:03:45.940
Perimeter fences, double perimeter fences, guys on sentry, the whole nine yards.
00:03:49.980
So, RAF Briers Norton, how have they done that?
00:03:56.320
Is it because they've got an HR manager now in charge and they had to do all their diversity training that night?
00:04:00.980
Well, this is the person who's ultimately the commander of the station.
00:04:12.720
I mean, she's obviously not responsible personally for the perimeter, but the buck stops with her, I should do.
00:04:22.700
Where are the men, the women and the others that are guarding it?
00:04:44.540
If they got on the e-scooters, which I think, you know, OK, they weren't too noisy in a big airport like that, that's silent at night.
00:04:54.960
What if they got something else that was in there?
00:04:56.800
What if they were just trying to transport something to another country?
00:04:59.820
What if they put a delayed reaction bomb and it blew up mid-air or something?
00:05:05.200
How would no one know if they've just gone away and then they post it a few days later, this is what we've done?
00:05:10.280
And let alone perimeters and sentries and pickets and all that sort of thing.
00:05:14.100
How is that bit of ground not got multiple cameras on it at all times and at least one person, if not many people, watching the CCTV at all times?
00:05:25.180
There's so many different just things that don't add up.
00:05:28.860
Yeah, I'm not enjoying this excuse other than that she should be fired now she's in charge.
00:05:34.440
So just quickly to finish up on the point of, you know, it's suspicious whether they're allowed in or whatever.
00:05:40.780
One possibility is that these are just straight up Palestine action dudes.
00:05:47.500
The second is that maybe Palestine action has been infiltrated by another...
00:05:58.080
Well, there's a couple of different angles I thought of.
00:06:00.400
One is that they could be Jewish or pro-Zionist and their ultimate aim was to get Palestine action prescribed.
00:06:08.580
Or, not even 4D, just 5D chess, actually like British MI5 or whatever.
00:06:37.580
I've got no special insight into the inner work, the inner sanctums of Palestine action.
00:06:58.080
So, but also, another thing they did, and the damage, I've seen various numbers thrown
00:07:13.040
Whatever it is, it's multiple millions worth of damage.
00:07:15.300
So, they've probably got to replace that entire turbine, I would have thought.
00:07:19.460
And so, one thing to say is, okay, on one end of the spectrum, to be as nice to them as
00:07:25.380
possible, not that I'm that way inclined, is that it's just criminal damage.
00:07:36.220
On the other end of the spectrum, you could say it's sedition, treason.
00:07:55.960
This is the sort of thing special forces would do.
00:07:57.580
You go to an enemy air base, infiltrate it late at night, and ruin their aircraft while
00:08:08.880
Yeah, just seeing Banksy getting down onto all the Iranian planes and put a picture of
00:08:14.020
a muller with freedom written across his chest.
00:08:25.560
Let's play this, because they did some other criminal things.
00:08:50.720
They're running around that facility, which was...
00:08:52.760
Apparently, they made this company, whatever they were, they were involved in making components
00:08:58.140
for Israelis, or something along those lines, something that was anti-Palestine, anti-Gaza.
00:09:04.440
But they went in there and doing, again, on one end of the spectrum, just criminal damage.
00:09:08.440
On the other end of the spectrum, you know, it's an affront to the very rule of law itself.
00:09:16.280
And nor can you put videos like that with really stupid music on it.
00:09:26.380
My personal opinion is that these are just fifth columnists.
00:09:38.380
And they're not bombing children in a pop concert.
00:09:43.600
But they are acting like a fifth column, and they also have no musical taste.
00:09:46.960
I think even drum and bass would probably have been a little bit better with the smashing things up there.
00:09:51.780
You know, maybe their friends in Brixton would have been saying that's culturally not acceptable.
00:09:58.640
But at the end of the day, these people need to be dealt with when they're doing proper criminal actions like that.
00:10:04.140
Any way you cut it, it's certainly criminal, isn't it?
00:10:10.660
But I do take the point, though, you're drawing that sedition, that moving across to the terrorism element,
00:10:16.040
when you're destroying the infrastructure that's due to protect our nation.
00:10:20.520
If it was the IRA doing it, we'd certainly be saying that's terrorism.
00:10:25.560
So they're very close to the line, if not already, across that line.
00:10:33.440
There is a grey area around what is the exact definition of terrorism.
00:10:37.940
Because us on the right side of the aisle, we get accused of being right-wing extremists or even terrorists for...
00:10:51.420
Again, it's non-violent in terms of sort of human violence, human-on-human violence.
00:11:02.300
It is, and I think the probably one reason why I think they can get away with just what they might regard as bland criminal damage
00:11:10.260
is because they've seen any time an organisation that's doing criminal damage,
00:11:14.800
they're now being let off by the courts, in effect.
00:11:17.040
Even those when they got sentenced to prison for Just Stop Oil,
00:11:22.340
they were then released afterwards saying that they shouldn't have gone to prison.
00:11:26.320
So maybe they've got that in their calculations.
00:11:29.140
A lot of institutional sympathy for things like this.
00:11:34.000
So security reasons like yourself should be properly addressed to it?
00:11:38.100
I just feel like going on to an army, RF Bryce-Naughton, and damaging military assets,
00:11:44.800
it's about as seditious as you can get without hurting people.
00:11:50.000
I mean, I don't know the rules on bases like that, but weren't they also taking their lives in their hands?
00:11:59.220
What if they'd opened fire, thinking that they were some sort of Iranian terrorist?
00:12:04.580
You know, a Russian terrorist or Chinese terrorist, or just terrorists from Brixton?
00:12:11.380
Brixton, Brixton, it'll get me into trouble now.
00:12:15.060
It's extremely brazen, isn't it, to attempt that Bryce-Naughton op?
00:12:22.400
I mean, as I say, it's in the category of a special forces thing.
00:12:39.940
Yeah, well, we get one of the most secure nations in the world.
00:12:42.700
And what does that signal to, you know, outside adversaries?
00:12:47.020
That's how easy it is to break into our air bases.
00:12:49.880
If a couple of jabronis on an e-scooter can do that...
00:12:57.980
Just got a channel migrants giving a Deliveroo and they got it wrong.
00:13:01.120
Well, if there were an actual sort of military trained sleeper cell that did something similar
00:13:13.720
They could have blown up all the aeroplanes that evening, couldn't they?
00:13:16.680
That is a fair, dangerous point that it could have done.
00:13:20.920
Our Home Secretary, Yvette Cooper, Mrs. Balls, has come out and said, Ms. Balls, has come
00:13:30.320
out and said that she wants to, or they're going to, apparently, prescribe them, ban them.
00:13:49.200
Now, it's revealing how different people feel about that because there are all sorts of
00:13:59.180
If they can do it to them, they can do it to us.
00:14:04.700
Well, our discussion pre-show is my initial reaction to banning any organisation is something
00:14:10.420
that we on the right should be very careful about, assessing and agreeing to, only because
00:14:14.820
if they're willing to do that to the left, they're going to treat us even worse and look
00:14:20.940
to ways that they can ban us, just in a way that they can use the law to enhance sentences,
00:14:26.480
for example, or restrict you from being on channels or close you down.
00:14:30.460
So, my initial gut reaction is, don't ban, find a way of some other strong way of sending
00:14:41.060
The key point here is whether drawing that line that you've put is, are they terrorists?
00:14:47.340
And you could be, I'm beginning to think differently about whether they are.
00:14:50.760
You're putting a point across to me that's making my mind move towards the sedition element.
00:14:56.080
Well, if I may, I was just going to say that I think that, you know, implicit in the name
00:15:01.440
is obviously the cause that they, you know, care about.
00:15:04.940
And, you know, from my point of view, the terroristic aspect of this is just the sabotaging
00:15:13.160
It's not Britain's actual view on foreign policy, right?
00:15:17.540
Because that doesn't define your identity, but certainly, yeah, breaking into a military
00:15:23.460
base and hampering Britain's ability to fight, should it need to, that is, you know, and having
00:15:31.900
that political input, that is where the terroristic aspect comes from.
00:15:42.500
I think that's where you're drawing me into the fact that I think it's the military-grade
00:15:46.800
sabotage of something that actually is used to protect us, not the crossing of the fence
00:15:52.220
in itself, not about being ridiculously showing us up and embarrassing us for not having any
00:15:57.400
security, but the military-grade denouement, I think, is really something that could be
00:16:04.300
What is she, what is she, where is she going with this?
00:16:06.840
Yeah, well, apparently they are, I think, in the next day or two.
00:16:11.640
That's what all the, that's what all the articles are saying.
00:16:14.580
I think as of right now, as of recording, they're still not prescribed, but they're
00:16:21.860
Certainly, Sir Keir's government took a dim view of it, although it's not that strong.
00:16:28.900
I mean, he did come out and condemn it and say, this is unacceptable, blah, blah, blah.
00:16:32.820
But his rhetoric was much stronger against the Southport rioters.
00:16:36.100
You know, remember when he said, he looked into the camera, I guarantee you, you will
00:16:46.600
But still, it looks like they are, you know, going to be prescribed.
00:16:53.360
Because it, as you say, it's a slippery slope, thin end of the wedge.
00:16:57.420
If they prescribe them, they'll go on to prescribe others, including us.
00:17:04.940
So us, or New Culture Forum, say, or even Patriotic Alternative, they're not going around
00:17:19.580
But I might come into that when we do my piece.
00:17:21.760
Let's park that, because I think what you're saying there is a very interesting element of
00:17:33.940
Whether these guys get prescribed or not, that would still be the case, wouldn't it?
00:17:38.720
And the other aspect about it is just, correct me if I'm wrong, did Keir Starmer defend a group
00:17:53.300
What was this, what you talk about specifically?
00:17:54.520
Keir Starmer, when he was a lawyer, did he not defend the actions of a group of people
00:18:03.020
And whether this is just something that just sprung to my mind, but I'm certainly did defend
00:18:13.400
It sounds like the sort of thing he would do, doesn't it?
00:18:17.460
Isn't he therefore on a real slippery slope to, you know, ban these people when he acted
00:18:26.040
I mean, you do wear a different hat when you're a prosecutor or even the head of the CPS or
00:18:32.780
I'm not trying to play defence of Keir Starmer, but still.
00:18:41.780
Whether you want to say they are a full-blown terror group or whatever.
00:18:46.240
Still, they're running around ignoring the rule of law at a military grade.
00:18:55.240
The other interesting aspect is the terror element.
00:18:58.040
I mean, their argument, I'm assuming, is that they're not causing terror to any individual.
00:19:04.600
But I'm trying to work now, remember, again, a terrorist act.
00:19:08.700
I don't think you need to actually have some kind of fear of individuals, do you?
00:19:12.840
It's not like, you know, it's a terrorist act when you're being attacked by an individual
00:19:17.080
But I think the extension of that is something different.
00:19:19.200
Isn't it the preparation also of activities that could lead to terror?
00:19:25.680
They've prosecuted, not that I'm happy with this or condoning this, but they prosecute
00:19:28.980
people under anti-terror laws for all sorts of stuff, right?
00:19:33.880
If you're just being a bit of a nuisance on the street, the police will detain you under
00:19:43.700
Let's be clear, but that is, yeah, the police and the state already use these laws way beyond
00:19:54.480
Which is where I come into, is I'm happy to see action taken against Palestinian action
00:20:01.760
But when they're starting extending the terrorist act, I do get a little bit worried about how
00:20:09.420
If they're already using it on legitimate individuals for just protest.
00:20:13.700
our concern is there for where we are in our arguments.
00:20:19.420
But, I mean, you know, not that I'm, you know, being a joke, but I am.
00:20:24.400
I mean, I've seen body cam or people with their phone just in the street.
00:20:27.740
And they're basically being a bit of a nuisance one way or another, whether legitimately or
00:20:47.220
He was in Doughty Street Chambers, I think, at the time.
00:20:58.720
And did they, I think they crossed into Fairford's airbase as well.
00:21:02.980
So, this creates a kind of, like, interesting issue for him, you know, because it's, I would
00:21:11.900
I mean, call me old-fashioned, but I feel like anyone that goes in a military zone where
00:21:20.180
you're not, where normal civilians aren't meant to go, that's quite a bad crime.
00:21:23.180
That's like, for me, it's levels above normal trespassing.
00:21:27.460
I mean, it's one thing to put illegal migrants in there, it's another thing for an ordinary
00:21:32.980
That's right, of course, we're not allowed to put them in, because that would be awful.
00:21:36.460
So, I did have another link where it showed that they've got, you can donate money to
00:21:47.940
Oh, yeah, well, someone's saying, apparently the Home Office itself is saying that there's
00:21:56.500
Whether that's true or not, because other people, there's other articles, other people
00:21:59.840
saying, that's just not true, that's a misinformation, disinformation thing.
00:22:03.500
That's the Home Office just, you know, coming out with liars, but they, they're saying that
00:22:15.980
There was, and then the protest on Monday, in Whitehall there, you can see that's just
00:22:20.000
outside down the street, I believe, certainly Whitehall, isn't it, or Trafalgar Square.
00:22:24.480
A few people were arrested, like seven or 10 or 13 people were arrested at that, so it
00:22:31.180
Well, if you look at the police there, again, not dressed in black, not got helmets on, not
00:22:38.380
got stun guns, not got batons, all very peaceable towards them in that way.
00:22:43.580
Yeah, we're on a line, you know, you'd have to expect them to get down on one knee and
00:22:47.800
In that kind of performance, if it was, you know, a march for England or a protest against
00:22:54.700
mass immigration, I can guarantee that police and the way that they're dressed and the approach
00:23:10.160
Some MPs are still coming out in support of it.
00:23:16.780
Of course they're in support of domestic, the domestic fifth column.
00:23:22.700
The thing is, as well, just to say about people like Abbott and Corbyn, right, they'll dress
00:23:28.580
this up and masquerade it as, well, you know, it's just, yeah, some of them might have gone
00:23:33.380
onto an airbase, but you can't condemn all of them, you know, like that.
00:23:39.200
But you know, if these people, if Corbyn was prime minister, he will crack down on right-wing
00:23:45.780
people for doing far less egregious things, right?
00:23:54.480
That's right, and it's a very clear point, because when we looked at Southport, which
00:23:57.360
we'll look again briefly later on, did they distinguish, until much later, all the people
00:24:04.360
that were in the kind of protests, no, we were all far right, xenophobes and racists at
00:24:10.960
the time of the riots, and afterwards, no, there were some decent people campaigning.
00:24:15.980
The first initial reaction of this lot would be, to anyone on the right, is that they're
00:24:23.660
And it wouldn't be the distinction he's drawing out.
00:24:27.000
Well, there's been very few enemies of Britain that Corbyn hasn't been in favour of, or advocated
00:24:39.340
Zahra Sultana said, we are all Palestine action.
00:24:49.520
I don't even know what the symbol is to be with them in one.
00:24:54.940
I don't even move my body in a little bit, just in case that we are all Palestinian action.
00:25:05.140
And to show our solidarity, I'm blocking any comments.
00:25:09.960
Well, if we're all Palestine, surely it'd just be a sea of agreement and praise, Zahra.
00:25:16.440
Again, it is telling how people fall down on one side or the other on this issue.
00:25:23.060
The lefties, Novara Media here, for example, they've got their knickers in a twist all about
00:25:30.480
They were just saying, it's just non-violent direct action.
00:25:39.000
Well, I think the swinging of that hammer or whatever into that piece of machinery,
00:25:47.240
That's not sitting down and singing, come by Palestine on the floor and cross legs.
00:25:55.060
I mean, it's clearly non-violent direct action, not terrorism.
00:26:03.440
I completely agree with you, Michael, but I'm...
00:26:09.500
So, it's just a little bit of criminal damage, bro.
00:26:17.120
You know, taking three bags of theft, it's just enough for dinner.
00:26:23.720
I mean, they'll say exactly the same about us or about me.
00:26:39.180
We're swinging to right and you better be afraid.
00:26:44.840
If there are any more developments with it, we'll probably bring them to you.
00:26:49.000
But it's a story that's been going on for a few days now.
00:26:52.080
And we're going to bring it to you earlier in the week.
00:27:05.800
So, a drunk changeling says, the airstrike on Iran was non-violent because they just caused
00:27:24.460
We like some of the comments when they come in like that at times.
00:27:29.660
So, you may have heard that over the weekend, well, let's put it this way, I was only just
00:27:37.920
really first hearing about all this out from New York and the potential of a new mayor for
00:27:48.280
You know, I suppose we all in the way get the politicians we vote for and we deserve and
00:27:53.680
if you keep voting for the ones that will screw you over and betray you, then you're going
00:27:59.360
However, if you are a woke hellhole like New York, then don't be surprised when eventually
00:28:06.200
you end up with a mayor who is in every way an avatar of the politics of that city, right?
00:28:13.780
So, before I move on with all of that though, I just want to tell you that we have a new show
00:28:19.420
for the Lotus Eaters, which is Firas Modad's RealPolitik.
00:28:23.840
I can tell you that this is a really, really good news series where Firas explores all of
00:28:29.960
the geopolitical stories and situations of the day.
00:28:33.680
If you scroll down on this, you'll see nothing but praise from people who have watched it
00:28:38.480
So, if you're interested in geopolitics, you can sign up for £5 a month, less than a pint
00:28:43.980
in this day and age, a pint a month, and you can go and watch his show.
00:29:28.300
But the interesting thing about Zoran is that there were a lot of people online, and I'll
00:29:41.840
It's not the Islam side of him that's actually as worrying in this particular state.
00:29:47.620
It's more the fact that every single factor of his pedigree seems to be defined by communism.
00:29:57.960
So his father gave him the middle name Kwame, named after the first president of Ghana.
00:30:11.800
So Zoran and his father, right, are from Uganda.
00:30:16.920
It's all Indian heritage, but they're from Uganda.
00:30:25.840
Wasn't his dad born in India, then moved to Uganda, though?
00:30:30.920
And they've lived in the United States and moved to New York when Zoran turned seven.
00:30:38.280
But he only became an American citizen about seven years ago.
00:30:55.420
And only in the last seven years has he actually become a full US citizen.
00:31:12.500
This is his campaigning website, and I went through some of these, and they're just absolutely brilliant.
00:31:18.020
I just particularly, before I begin, want to draw your attention to the bottom one.
00:31:26.020
So it's going to become a bit like London with Sadiq Khan, right?
00:31:30.940
New York is just going to become this citadel of wokery and globalism that's just going to fight against.
00:31:38.480
Obviously, in our case, you know, the British state and London are one and the same.
00:31:42.460
But in this position, he's looking at Washington.
00:31:47.140
And he's saying, no, I'm going to incubate New York and protect it from all of, well, let's just say, the actual nationally felt, you know, feelings of America at this time in its history.
00:31:59.420
He's got plans to literally physically demolish Trump Tower.
00:32:15.940
There are loads of pro-Trump people in New York still.
00:32:25.160
And so, I just wanted to focus on a few things from this, which is that, as mayor, Zoran will immediately freeze the rent for all stabilized tenants and use every available resource to build the housing New Yorkers need and bring down the rent.
00:32:42.140
Well, again, it's a bit like the England thing.
00:32:46.740
Because a lot of people have been fleeing New York in recent years.
00:32:52.960
And so, who are all the new arrivals all of a sudden?
00:32:56.100
The thing is, with anything like that, any sort of...
00:32:58.660
When you dabble with economics like that, the supply and demand.
00:33:15.000
It's been tried loads and loads of times throughout history to try and fix prices and...
00:33:20.120
How did it do for Diocletian, Beau, as a fan of ancient history?
00:33:26.860
Did he have rent-stabilized apartments that he was just trying to manage at the time?
00:33:32.660
He wanted to have a portfolio of buy-to-lets and he was just letting them all out and he had to be stabilized.
00:33:38.380
Whenever actual communists do it, like in Maoist China or something, or in the Soviet Union or Cuba or wherever, it won't work.
00:33:48.100
It's so forced and fake that in the end, markets will just break through anyway.
00:33:55.720
And if they prevent the markets, you're going to have to go along.
00:33:58.140
I've been to Cuba, you know, three or four times.
00:34:03.300
I deliberately wanted to see the place before he died and then what happened after he died.
00:34:11.140
And one of the very clear things that you see about the accommodation there, the housing,
00:34:14.600
they have some beautiful apartments that you'd seen along with what's called the Mallison,
00:34:19.920
which is over a mile and a half of these amazing buildings, all colored, all built in the right period of history,
00:34:26.220
looking out over this great bay, dilapidated, falling apart, dirty, filthy.
00:34:32.080
And that's what happens if you take the market out of it.
00:34:35.320
Now, I agree that if the market was allowed to flourish, literally no one who lived in that city
00:34:40.820
would be able to afford those within a short period of time because they'd all be renovated
00:34:44.820
and sold off at a million pounds at a time because that's what happens across the whole globe, sadly.
00:34:50.600
But the opposite end of it is lots of families are living in there, but they've got no washing machines,
00:34:56.920
you know, electricity's falling down all the time, building doors, and you can see it.
00:35:00.060
You can see the sheer poverty in the buildings.
00:35:02.920
That's the sort of thing that he'll bring to two million non-stabilized apartments.
00:35:13.260
Well, it's very telling, isn't it, that when he was seven, his parents didn't decide to move to Cuba.
00:35:21.100
No, they decided to move to New York City, which, shockingly, to the surprise of no one,
00:35:30.700
No, didn't his daddy get a nice job in a university which was pretty well paid,
00:35:37.620
I'll get on to that, actually, yeah, where his education was and what he did there.
00:35:42.100
So, Zoran will create the Department of Community Safety to prevent violence before it happens
00:35:49.120
by prioritizing solutions which have been consistently shown to improve safety.
00:35:55.440
The police will play a critical role, but essentially, I'll just skip over the whole thing.
00:36:01.520
that we're going to have more mental health programs, presumably more youth centers as well,
00:36:11.100
Increase funding to hate violence prevention programs by 800%.
00:36:17.100
Event violence before it happens is like precogs.
00:36:22.980
It was just the movie that was coming into my mind at the time.
00:36:26.340
Well, the Department of Community Safety puts me in mind of sort of the French Revolution.
00:36:37.840
What evidence-based non-violence or gun violence prevention programs
00:36:43.040
or any violence prevention programs that we know that actually has prevented violence?
00:36:52.060
Yeah, if we say it long enough and loud enough, violence hasn't occurred.
00:36:56.080
When it's happening right in front of us and someone's smashing their faces in,
00:37:00.700
There's no violence there because I ideologically believe that the program's worked.
00:37:09.140
His entire platform is basically fueled by ideology, right?
00:37:13.360
He's just obviously a man from the same vein of his father.
00:37:17.940
You know, he never put down the crayons and stopped with the socialism.
00:37:28.940
But I suppose what I'll do, rather than you get the idea as to what sort of man he is,
00:37:36.060
So his mother, yes, of New York City's Muslim socialist mayoral candidate,
00:37:46.140
Now, this is from an interview that she gave about a decade ago, but it really does just show.
00:38:04.940
And for those of us who are English and American,
00:38:08.780
they've explained here what these words and terms actually mean.
00:38:11.960
So he's basically saying he's totally an outsider, totally an outsider.
00:38:16.420
Born in Uganda, raised between India and America.
00:38:22.240
He thinks of himself as a Ugandan and as an Indian.
00:38:25.880
You see, if you were to ask Donald Trump where he feels home is,
00:38:30.580
I imagine he only actually has one answer to that.
00:38:44.080
Remember, who was our Tory prime minister who was an Indian man?
00:38:50.900
Like his family basically said, yeah, we're Indian people.
00:38:59.360
And the establishment went, no, you're British.
00:39:05.760
where would Zoran be if America declared war on Uganda and or India
00:39:12.200
and he had to put on a uniform, would he fight?
00:39:19.060
And watch their sliminess as they try and evade doing the answer.
00:39:25.500
So, naturally, this all sounded like sunshine and rainbows to Bernie
00:39:30.520
and he immediately got Bernie Sanders' endorsement.
00:39:36.160
he looks like he's doing a bit of an impression of Weekend at Bernie's.
00:39:41.780
I was just saying, he's beginning to look more like Corbyn
00:39:44.000
or Corbyn's beginning to look more like him each day.
00:39:50.480
Yeah, it does look like Corbyn in a centrifuge pulling nine Gs.
00:40:00.380
but it turns out that Zoran was just a major fan
00:40:08.360
This is what kind of mayor New York City needs right now.
00:40:14.720
Oh, no, he's just saying that that's his politics.
00:40:22.780
Safer streets, cleaner neighbourhoods, less crime, all of that.
00:40:30.460
apart from the closed off areas where the MPs live,
00:40:38.680
Unless you're in the blocked off areas of the super rich in Mumbai,
00:40:42.800
they're able to go down to the really expensive holidays
00:40:46.040
So, maybe that's the sort of India he wants to bring to New York
00:40:49.080
enclosed areas blocked by police loving beautiful gardens
00:40:53.940
and being able to spend £100 on a glass of wine or something by hotel.
00:40:57.480
It's interesting, though, because New York is famously sort of,
00:41:04.520
So, the Indian section of New York City's population isn't by any means overwhelming.
00:41:14.300
There'll be lots of other people that don't identify as Indian Americans
00:41:17.060
or just straight up Indians, yeses, whatever it is.
00:41:24.680
Why would they, if you're an African American living in New York,
00:41:28.260
or you're an Italian American living in New York,
00:41:32.660
You'd be like, well, I'm not voting for this guy.
00:41:46.680
And I think what they're doing is New York's always had these kind of sects,
00:41:51.900
the groups, the kind of organizations of the LGB organizations,
00:41:57.840
the Democrat wealth, for example, of business and those who are working in New York,
00:42:03.040
those who identify with the black community, for example.
00:42:09.700
And I assume that they think that these coalitions all regard him as being the great leader to come
00:42:21.200
That's why I imagine that he's got his seven years ago that he decided out of the blue
00:42:25.340
that he's going to become an American citizen so that he can push this through.
00:42:29.160
Although I don't think he can be an American president.
00:42:30.760
I think you have to be bold on U.S. soil, don't you?
00:42:39.700
And between Chicago and New York, they are the two power bases of who controls effectively
00:42:46.100
the kind of democratic elites and who gets through the major routes up to becoming
00:42:54.520
Especially because, you know, people like him and AOC, even though, you know,
00:42:58.620
she's dropped off a bit, you know, they are the younger end of the Democrat party.
00:43:04.620
I think he certainly couldn't ever be president.
00:43:06.400
That's why Arnie could never be president or why...
00:43:14.520
But you see here as well, again, this is an old one.
00:43:17.480
Queer liberation means defund the police, right?
00:43:19.940
So back during the whole BLM thing, he was totally for defunding the police.
00:43:24.480
Now, obviously, he's toned, moderated the rhetoric a bit.
00:43:28.980
But this is what he believes, you know, this is what he can say what he wants.
00:43:32.980
But this is, you know, when he felt like the entire political winds were behind him,
00:43:40.200
Everyone that advocated for defund the police, every single one of them,
00:43:46.500
It's an enemy of civil society, is an enemy of the rule of law.
00:43:53.760
He also wants to impede ICE and basically make New York a sanctuary for all the illegals
00:44:01.140
that have arrived there to protect them from the evil orange man, of course, as well.
00:44:06.020
Actually, there's a very good argument then for Steve Miller and the Congress to actually
00:44:12.620
turn around and say that everyone that we capture, we're just going to give to New York
00:44:20.620
It's nothing to do with you're not getting any Fed funding.
00:44:27.340
Adams, who's in power at the moment, complained bitterly about the cost to New York of the
00:44:33.040
mass numbers of immigrants that were coming in there.
00:44:40.520
And so there's an element of Fed funding that goes to these.
00:44:44.880
And you have to go through Congress and Senate to do it.
00:44:48.120
But you can isolate the funding from New York and let him have it.
00:44:54.980
Let him try and stop ICE because then you actually have a reason to arrest him as someone
00:45:02.860
It's almost Dirty Harry, you know, go ahead and make my day.
00:45:07.680
Dare me to send in the National Guard or the Marines.
00:45:12.620
But short of that, if he does turn it into one of those really bad examples of a sanctuary
00:45:20.680
So New York City turns into sort of an actual hellscape, like Escape from New York style
00:45:36.720
So, but in all of this, obviously, it's obvious that we have every reason to dislike this man.
00:45:42.620
But I am just going to go through some of the reasons why he does seem to have gotten lots
00:45:48.300
and lots of votes and actually become the, he's not, I just also, he's not mayor.
00:46:12.840
Well, you can see this though, you know, this is, this is just basically an attack from the,
00:46:19.720
This, you know, against what they see as the establishment of the Democrat wing.
00:46:24.140
And so it's really to do with, as I covered earlier, the, the, the cost of rent in New York
00:46:32.740
And fortunately, uh, Zoran is very aware of this and he's going to bring the price of
00:46:40.580
New York is suffering from a crisis and it's called halalflation.
00:46:47.380
Today's, we're going to get to the middle of it.
00:46:51.260
How much does a plate of halal cost right now from this truck?
00:46:58.800
When you're a street vendor, you have to pay for the food, the plates.
00:47:10.600
How much does a license cost if you get it from the city?
00:47:17.920
Some of the halal vendors have got a lot of red tape, uh, in their way in terms of the
00:47:23.180
permits that they're having to use and everything.
00:47:24.780
But is this really, is, it's one thing to say, like, the cost of food, but halal vendors
00:47:33.680
That's, that's the angle with that music over the top.
00:47:37.820
It's also, um, something to say, it might not be as apparent there, but his, his whole
00:47:43.500
campaign did have something of a, sort of a postmodern, you know.
00:47:48.640
It was very polished, very TikTok-y, very Zoomer-esque, uh, and because his mother is, uh, Indian-American,
00:48:12.820
He would definitely be on Corbyn's side on this issue, I can assure you.
00:48:16.200
I just wanted to come back to something that you were saying, Beau, about the fact that,
00:48:19.660
um, all the different types of people that are in New York, right?
00:48:23.380
You know, the Italians, the Irish, the, the Indians, all these different people.
00:48:27.240
And you can see here the, uh, the Lester, Lesterfication of New York.
00:48:32.180
You've got this one guy saying, uh, Zoran is of Indian origin, yet out of sheer Islamophobia,
00:48:38.040
Hindu groups in New York City campaigned hard against him.
00:48:41.520
Now he's going to be mayor, and these groups lost a chance to have a friend in City Hall.
00:48:45.920
The bigotry of Hindus is going to be their undoing in India and abroad.
00:48:54.520
That, that's an accurate reflection of reality.
00:48:59.060
And obviously as regards to, uh, you know, price freezing of rent, bringing the cost of
00:49:05.280
food down, free childcare throughout the city, uh, for, uh, all children from, I think
00:49:12.440
it was six months to five years, we'll just get...
00:49:17.240
Well, this is, he's come up with a very original idea.
00:49:22.740
And they've been on the, he's been with Zia Yusuf, and they've been working out together
00:49:27.060
how they, they managed to get the costings together.
00:49:30.460
I mean, they're obviously similar types of plans, very common socialist planning.
00:49:35.580
So they're going to put on ice for a moment, uh, the eating of the rich.
00:49:42.760
And then when they're penniless, then you can...
00:49:46.420
Uh, and they'll be cheap, they'll be cheaper too.
00:49:49.860
So, but it's one of those, um, enormous contradictions, right?
00:49:53.560
Where it's like, oh, well, we're just going to tax the rich, but we're also going to celebrate
00:50:02.380
There goes your entire plan with how to fund this thing.
00:50:09.700
It's where socialism always ends in poverty and ultimately famine.
00:50:15.300
And because that's hard baked into it, because it doesn't work.
00:50:19.460
I'm just intrigued about it because if you get some of the really serious billionaires
00:50:24.180
that live in, uh, New York, I mean, they obviously have really important apartment blocks that
00:50:33.220
Uh, the big bond buyers are all very close, but then they have their holiday homes much
00:50:40.280
And so for them, it's a big difficulty to, to leave.
00:50:43.980
To leave unless they actually move the whole of their kind of business model and institutions
00:50:49.180
out of New York so that they can wreck some kind of working together conglomerate, maybe
00:50:54.580
up the coast, but it's outside of New York City.
00:50:57.060
They're going to struggle because their wives will not want to go away from where they can
00:51:03.060
Not a lot of them are all there about their children have.
00:51:06.600
They can move them out of New York if they wanted to.
00:51:08.260
But it's the wives, the families, and that connectivity that's going to be difficult.
00:51:12.700
Whoever is the cleverest kind of city that is able to sell, we can try and help build
00:51:20.740
As you look in Britain at the moment, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, a lot of businesses moving out
00:51:29.480
Now, I'm not saying the people from New York would do that, but it's a similar sort of model.
00:51:35.600
I just find it hard to believe you get any sort of big mandate in November because everyone
00:51:41.640
that isn't a Muslim or an Indian Muslim wouldn't want me.
00:51:46.600
Like there's big, famously, isn't there, a big Jewish community in New York.
00:51:50.380
In fact, I've heard there's more Jewish people in New York than in Israel.
00:51:53.180
I'm not sure if that's true, but I've heard that.
00:51:56.620
Anyway, they're not going to want this guy, are they?
00:51:59.320
He's clearly a pro-Muslim, pro-halal, partisan type fella.
00:52:06.680
He said if Netanyahu came to New York, I'd arrest him.
00:52:14.000
And he also said as well that he wouldn't meet with Modi because of, obviously, he's
00:52:18.320
a Muslim and Modi's a Hindu nationalist as well.
00:52:34.120
Yeah, I was just about to come to that because I actually think this is worth reading in full.
00:52:37.800
The other interesting angle about the Mamdani win is that the ethno-politics of New York
00:52:44.480
The old political machine, white ethnics and leadership, with dedicated patronage from
00:52:49.480
the black vote, has lost an enormous amount of influence.
00:52:52.480
The Irish and Italians have mostly assimilated into a generalised white identity.
00:52:57.700
The Jewish vote is fractured as the left has become more solidly anti-Israel, and the
00:53:05.440
The Mamdani coalition rests on this new ethno-political coalition of white leftists, i.e. those who've
00:53:12.760
adopted an ideological identity best understood as a rebellion against whiteness, and as a
00:53:18.520
well-organised Asian, quote-unquote, vote, which tips the scales in favour of Zoran, and against the old
00:53:32.140
I wonder how true that will prove to be at the ballot box in November.
00:53:37.220
Far be it from me, genuinely, far be it from me to question Rufo.
00:53:40.560
You may well be exactly right, but a couple of things in there, I would be surprised if
00:53:45.000
it is true that, you know, like the Jewish vote is so fractured, and that they're so left
00:53:50.180
that they wouldn't, that they would be anti-Israel.
00:53:55.480
And that there's a well-organised sort of general Asian vote.
00:53:59.100
Again, I don't know if that is, will prove to be true.
00:54:06.560
No, I was, what, are they Chinese, or they, you know?
00:54:08.760
I think what they're trying to do is not say Islamic, then.
00:54:11.360
There is, there is a big, there is a, there is a, there is a, there is a change in terms
00:54:16.100
of the demographics of New York, and just like,
00:54:18.400
There's more Muslims in New York than there used to be?
00:54:20.840
So just like I said that I wanted to go to Cuba and see it just before the end of days
00:54:25.820
with, you know, Castro, I think it might be my trip now is to get to New York before
00:54:30.800
it becomes a fully communist, Islamo-communist state.
00:54:38.880
The only aspect about that is, I think, Beau, you might be hitting on something here, is
00:54:43.680
whether the different ethnic groups, which have all come together on the left to project
00:54:49.780
of Democrats, whether the kind of success of that candidate for Congress on Long Island
00:54:57.060
can translate itself now into New York as to mayor, whether that actually will create
00:55:02.840
a division so big that we have one of these almost megalithic revolutions, and they vote
00:55:16.440
Yeah, I think the polling, watching the polling beforehand will be very interesting.
00:55:22.400
I will just say, though, that from my point of view, it really just seems like New York
00:55:28.160
has entirely fallen into the same perpetual trap that London has, which is just a demographic
00:55:36.260
New York back in 1960, which I pull out only because that's, you know, a few years before
00:55:41.480
the Heart Cellar Act passed, in which they allowed more immigration from, you know, non-white,
00:55:52.280
The demographics of the white population in New York were about 80%, right?
00:56:01.080
They're still majority, but they're majority minority, right?
00:56:08.900
Anyway, I realise we're running a bit low on time with this segment, so I'll just skip
00:56:13.600
I just wanted to draw attention to some of these things, though, as well, because there
00:56:17.500
is some real hysteria about his Muslim identity, right?
00:56:22.320
And on the one hand, I absolutely get it, right?
00:56:25.220
I absolutely get it, but the thing is that when you are really, really hysterical and
00:56:32.600
maximalist about these things, like Marjorie Taylor Greene's doing here, it's like, oh,
00:56:37.340
well, he's going to stick everyone in burkas, right?
00:56:40.760
It's like, well, that's his wife, so, you know, it's like, no, if you just spend five
00:56:48.420
minutes, right, to just do the actual proper research, because these are easy wins for
00:56:52.600
the left, these are easy wins that you don't need to give them.
00:56:56.040
You've got more than enough ammunition, you've got more than enough reasons to attack him
00:56:59.960
on the merits of the fact that he's not American, you know, that he's basically a global nomad.
00:57:05.680
It doesn't matter if he's a Muslim or a Hindu or whatever, right?
00:57:08.420
I understand that there's more of a sting to him being a Muslim in the post-9-11 world,
00:57:14.180
I understand that, but you're going to have to play this smarter, right?
00:57:18.960
Americans are going to have to be smarter about this, and I don't think that there's
00:57:24.480
Now, you know, I've got some time for Daryl Cooper, I think he makes some good points,
00:57:28.040
but when he says, I couldn't care less who runs New York, you guys have fun, you kind
00:57:33.520
of should care, Daryl, you kind of should, because it is one of the American cities, the
00:57:39.240
It's one of the most famous parts of American identity, and if you play the Duma and just
00:57:45.360
abandon it in the way that some people say London should just be discarded now, just,
00:57:57.520
And the thing is, I don't think that New York is unsalvageable.
00:58:02.920
There are practical policies that the Trump administration could pursue that could actually
00:58:08.960
alleviate a lot of the stress and alienation on New York that has led to this point, in
00:58:15.080
the same way that it could also be done for London.
00:58:17.380
They should run Barron against him in November.
00:58:25.720
I'll just finish with one thing from the Donald, where it says, it's finally happened, the
00:58:31.780
Zoran Mamdani, 100% communist lunatic, has just won the Dem primary and is on his way to
00:58:38.860
We've had radical leftists before, but this is getting a little ridiculous.
00:58:47.080
He's got AOC plus three dummies all backing him.
00:58:51.120
And even our great Palestinian senator, crying Chuck Schumer, is groveling over him.
00:58:56.500
Yes, this is a big moment in the history of our country.
00:58:59.300
But the thing is, there are people in the Trump administration, like Stephen Miller, who says
00:59:05.180
a commentary about New York City Democrats nominating an anarchist socialist for mayor,
00:59:09.600
admits one point, how unchecked migration fundamentally remade the New York electorate.
00:59:17.120
So he understands that the demographics are the destiny.
00:59:20.080
Well, Stephen, you've recognized the political reality.
00:59:28.320
You've got a full license to do something about this.
00:59:31.900
There are, start with the illegals, and then there are a whole slew, I'm sure there are
00:59:36.160
entire communities in New York that should simply be deported, right?
00:59:45.260
And they're only there for economic purposes, until Zoran's socialist policies naturally
00:59:51.400
run it into the ground, and they'll just move over to the next American city, where they,
01:00:15.260
Uh, worry not, after the chaos of the, uh, Fedekin, uh, occupation of Arakeen, Baron Maldib
01:00:25.680
I'm really struggling with these words for some reason.
01:00:30.840
Uh, Trump will, uh, return to his father's seat of power and restore order, as it was written.
01:00:39.200
Uh, Darth Amalgamation says, apparently Republicans don't even run a mayoral candidate in New York
01:00:50.460
They've got one guy, but he's an anti-Trump Republican.
01:00:54.540
Right, so they're obviously going, well, we can't have a guy who's a fan of Trump.
01:00:59.700
That's not going to gel in New York, but he's not going to make any waves.
01:01:02.760
Everyone's saying that Eric Adams, running as an independent, is the only person who
01:01:15.080
So I'll want to, this, let's, let's get cracking on that.
01:01:26.220
Yeah, it's, it's, it's kind of like a couple of stories moving on from like just the fact
01:01:31.720
that we've just got guys on little bikes managed to damage a multi hundred million power plane
01:01:38.800
And now we have, uh, someone who's not American, clearly a communist who calls themselves an
01:01:44.540
Indian Ugandan, getting in power with one of the major cities in the globe.
01:01:48.700
And, uh, all of these just sound completely strange to you as though there's these hounds
01:01:54.840
around us kind of just moving and manipulating things.
01:01:58.660
And I think here in this piece is also to try and show a little bit of that because I'm,
01:02:03.380
we, we all know what happened in the Southport riots.
01:02:05.440
We all know the evil Rudy Cavani killing those kids and the, the, the guttural and visceral
01:02:12.200
hatred of that man and what he did to children, uh, brought out the worst in some people and
01:02:18.460
So they, the, the elites now have come into a view that they need to try and understand
01:02:27.220
And what they've done is they've organized a bipartisan group of people to come to a commission
01:02:34.520
for working out why there were riots of South, Southport.
01:02:38.340
So before we get to that, I want to tell everybody to get involved and watch RealPolitik
01:02:47.480
It's a real big journey about the world's geopolitics.
01:02:50.640
It'll help you understand, uh, where we get in terms of the history of nations,
01:02:55.420
why they interact with one another in the way that they do, why religion is so important,
01:02:59.740
what's happening with the different political parties, why you've got the conflicts between
01:03:03.540
Iran, Israel, where that support, big, big ideas.
01:03:07.140
And, and Firas has worked with all of us so far on this show and he's really showing you
01:03:11.520
And I think I recommend getting onto that without a doubt.
01:03:22.440
So I'm going to see if that's the first bit for us.
01:03:26.700
I might have to pull these because these are coming up.
01:03:31.580
So as I mentioned, a task force has been launched to tackle the root causes of the UK riots.
01:03:40.940
It's an independent task force, as the BBC called.
01:03:43.660
It's going to be called the Independent Commission on Tackling Community Divisions.
01:03:51.040
Even the name alone strikes fear into anyone who believes in the truth, honesty, and dignity,
01:03:59.020
But it does have some really fascinating people who are going to be chairs of it.
01:04:04.840
And it's going to have Sir Sajid Javid and Labour MP John Cruddus as the joint chairs.
01:04:11.160
So the first thing that I obviously have to mention is that if this entire commission is supposed to be set up to understand why the British public are so peeved and will riot about things,
01:04:25.780
and it's being headed by Sajid Javid, who, when the recent demographic data about London came out and its minority white status, said,
01:04:36.460
I don't think he's perhaps the best guy to be leading.
01:04:40.460
Seeing as he wasn't obviously willing to accept that anyone could have a problem with that.
01:04:45.780
No, no, he certainly doesn't believe there is a problem at all.
01:04:49.100
He was in government, wasn't he, during the lockdown stuff?
01:05:02.600
But clearly this thing is just a whitewash or misdirection from start to finish.
01:05:08.480
Because why were people upset at a slaughter of the innocents?
01:05:17.180
I could tell you without a commission for free.
01:05:19.760
I'm trying to work that one out, really, and just try to think how the use of knife, children, bludgeoning, death,
01:05:30.320
I just generally would have thought, once I'd heard all those children were butchered,
01:05:35.040
the best thing to do is get out and bake a cake.
01:05:45.920
And so we've got, the first thing is, we knew that after Southport, this is what they went to.
01:05:52.840
They said it was a deleted Lincoln Post that weaponized and was seen by millions before the Southport riots.
01:06:01.580
Thank you for being the ultimate arbiters of truth.
01:06:05.500
Thank you for distinguishing between misinformation and disinformation on our behalf.
01:06:11.700
So, one single, one single LinkedIn post led to the kind of rioting of thousands, to be honest, across all the cities of there.
01:06:22.860
But, of course, that's one of the things that they thought was really, really important about it.
01:06:28.200
And then there was, of course, another reason that, and I love this from GQ.
01:06:45.060
Isn't that the people that they're normally supposed to be supporting?
01:06:55.840
And all of the rest of them are Muslims looking down the street there.
01:07:01.900
And then you've got this little picture of a guy in glasses says, we will not become second-class citizens in here.
01:07:14.840
The gentleman's quarterly for those who have too much money in London who want to really look cool whilst they're in a coffee shop looking at a girl saying, look, I can actually read.
01:07:31.240
And in this particular story of the Southport riots, you can just imagine exactly what was going on.
01:07:37.740
This is all, first of all, the first parts are all about Patrick Hurley was on the corner of the street with a bouquet of lilies with Yvette Cooper.
01:07:45.420
Patrick was deeply upset as the MP for that particular area, as he put it down.
01:08:01.040
It's good to know because I didn't know who that was.
01:08:04.380
Then they talk about, you know, oh, there was this brutal murder that went on and, you know, how upset I was in terms of being the MP and I needed to come down and see it.
01:08:14.640
And then, of course, they then go down a little further.
01:08:16.660
And they talk about how Ibram Hussein was in the mosque close by and they were told that there was going to be in our very nice sleepy town full of old people and retired people where nothing happens.
01:08:29.840
I'm suddenly told by the police that there may well be a bit of a riot going on, which we've not had here.
01:08:36.120
And then the further down he goes and the further down you go on, it talks a little bit more building up to this big riot.
01:08:42.180
And, of course, it's Andy Ngo and Andy Tate that helped cause this riot.
01:08:49.740
Social media amplified it, talking about how it was a Muslim and it was American right-wing commentator Andy Ngo who wrote a book about Antifa's plans.
01:09:03.000
And then later on, as we keep going through that, there's the great part where they start talking about how it's big blokes who don't live in the area.
01:09:14.540
Big mask blokes came from all over the country that night.
01:09:18.680
So I didn't realize there was lots of vans, lorries and coach hires going to the Southport riots.
01:09:32.480
And wasn't it shown a few weeks ago or a couple of months back?
01:09:34.860
Because that's what Keir Starmer said while it was going on or within days that it was people from outside that came in.
01:09:39.400
And the actual police, senior police people said in committee just a few weeks ago that that just wasn't true.
01:09:52.600
I'm dealing with the immediate reactions afterwards.
01:09:55.800
Rolling Stone in America said it was Elon Musk.
01:09:59.100
Clearly he was out there with his petrol bombs.
01:10:01.340
He'd obviously paid for thousands of petrol bombs to go to a street there.
01:10:12.760
Because he did a tweet along the lines that it was like, we've got revolution or civil war.
01:10:21.520
The thing is as well that the whole tactic here when it comes to people like Musk and Tate and all these sorts of people, it's the exact same tactic that they used against Powell all those decades ago.
01:10:35.280
You know, when they just say, oh, well, if you just didn't voice these things, if you just didn't say these things, then people wouldn't think them.
01:10:44.200
When, in fact, the absolute opposite is, of course, true.
01:10:47.460
The feeling amongst the local residents is there first, of course.
01:10:52.200
And, you know, people like Musk or whoever it might be just give voice to a feeling that is already pre-existing.
01:10:58.660
And so if you eradicate the ability to say the opinion, you're not addressing it because everyone in Southport is still going to be absolutely disgusted about what the authorities are allowed to happen and about the murder of their children.
01:11:13.680
You know, what a morally bankrupt thing it is to be outraged by the reaction to an atrocity than the atrocity itself.
01:11:26.740
It talks about Tommy Robinson being involved in it.
01:11:29.980
Tommy Robinson, real name Stephen Yexty-Lennon.
01:11:35.360
Then we get the, I find it a little bit of an interesting article down here.
01:11:39.760
I'm just going to test whether the, no, that didn't come in.
01:11:43.500
So I'll have to go right down the bottom of it.
01:11:45.920
So this is the counter-terrorist business advisory group.
01:11:49.960
They come on usual assessment of the causes and consequences, talks about Southport, talks about the groups involved, Tommy Robinson.
01:12:00.140
It then lists the violent disorder program that the government has then set up about it.
01:12:06.740
Tech for terrorism organization saying we need to look at that.
01:12:09.700
And then as you get a little further down, you start two things.
01:12:16.100
We know we're not along and we're drawing together our communities and partners to help us do more to silence those intent on spreading news.
01:12:25.400
And they're interesting that they picked this up because of what we're talking about now.
01:12:36.600
This is the part that I think is more sensible.
01:12:38.580
Without generalizing, it would be important to consider other factors that have been highlighting contributions to the violence.
01:12:43.960
Cost of living crisis, unemployment, lack of trust and respect for police, a general increase in violence anyway, a feel of not being represented by government, the weather.
01:12:57.260
These are all the kind of ideas being pushed by this group of people according to this counterterrorism business organization.
01:13:06.400
And I'll quickly move through because I know they've got a lot here and looking at this.
01:13:09.740
Anything other than the actual act, the actual slaughter of innocence.
01:13:15.520
Based on decades of traitorous immigration policies.
01:13:19.260
It's all the different things, including the weather.
01:13:26.800
Weren't the Gordon riots back in the 1700s caused by the weather?
01:13:34.300
So we then get this, which is the Home Secretary's statement on disorder.
01:13:39.740
And they have now organized, with police, a special disorder campaign that's being done.
01:13:46.840
And I'm going to let people just read through this.
01:13:48.920
The whole idea here is they go through the list of shops and everything like that.
01:13:53.780
But in the end, we've created this group of people run by the National Police Council and the Coordination Center on how to deal with terrorist organizations and criminal violence.
01:14:04.920
They're causing this, they're causing this, a form of terrorism on that.
01:14:09.400
And I want to say that's important because this is where I believe they want the evidence to create legislation on how to create...
01:14:25.800
So along comes the Independent Commission on Community and Cohesion, and this is the organization.
01:14:34.460
We are a thriving multi-ethnic and multi-faith democracy where most people in town cities get on with each other, but we're experiencing challenges to our communities and local lives.
01:14:45.240
So we now find ourselves at a crossroads with generational questions.
01:15:04.400
I'm trying to think, it kind of all comes out to me as this kind of song when you're looking at the pictures of that.
01:15:22.720
Sorry, could you just scroll up one moment, Stephen, to the top, where it says about the UK is a thriving multi-ethnic and multi-faith democracy.
01:15:32.920
This is the entire problem, because that is the predetermined project.
01:15:37.960
And therefore, because that is the project, certain conclusions have simply become dismissed.
01:15:46.860
And so you're never going to get the answer because you don't want the answer.
01:15:50.640
You don't like the answer that you're being told, which is that we never chose or wanted to be a multi-ethnic, multi-faith democracy.
01:16:00.620
And the more that you force it to be, the more you're going to encounter more southparks.
01:16:06.840
This is not me endorsing rioting, but I'm just saying it's naturally going to lead to that.
01:16:12.220
If you don't, if people aren't going to find political representation for the grievances in Parliament.
01:16:19.640
And this is fascinating how the establishment are now trying to create this.
01:16:24.000
And they're doing it as an independent commission.
01:16:26.580
It's apparently backed by the government, but not financially supported by the government.
01:16:33.560
And we'll not produce a report from behind closed doors.
01:16:36.100
Instead, we'll engage with communities across the country in order to understand how to enhance community connectedness, cohesion and resilience.
01:16:46.380
But I'm just fascinated if we organize ourselves our own responses to this, whether they would actually listen to it.
01:16:54.960
Now, I may work on a little project to create different interesting elements about it.
01:16:59.480
Now, I'll just go through some of the names because I think who's in it.
01:17:03.680
All these various people, David Halpern, Behavioral Insights.
01:17:07.140
He was on the COVID group to How to Control Us All.
01:17:15.700
First ever person that allowed me to do a speech from UKIP on immigration.
01:17:21.240
One of the worst fifth columnists you will ever come across.
01:17:44.120
And when I looked at this, the initial plans, we work with British Future and Belong, who I haven't examined a great deal on there, to build the early evidence base.
01:17:55.280
National representative polling, which is they create the language that they want, the results and the answers that they want.
01:18:00.720
Then they get funding for someone and they give it to a bigger polling company saying, this is what our polling is.
01:18:07.020
If someone gave me five or ten thousand pounds, I'd do a polling that would give us the answers that we want.
01:18:13.460
He then went around the country, funded by them, hotels.
01:18:16.700
And they go in there and get little groups of people who give them the focus groups on the questions that they want.
01:18:27.960
Don't know who these experts were, but they've already produced, out of a hundred submissions, the basis of this research that they're going to use.
01:18:37.300
So the solutions are already there in the basis.
01:18:41.880
The rest is just waiting and seeing what language they can use.
01:18:47.460
At the end of it all, no doubt their conclusions will be white systemic racism is the problem.
01:19:03.880
Now, the Together initiative is something that says very clearly at the top of this page of this initiative here.
01:19:18.060
This is the overall organization that runs this particular group.
01:19:22.220
So when you look at the Independent Commission on Cohesion, you go right down to the bottom.
01:19:30.220
Oh, by the way, everybody, if you want to respond, that's where you respond.
01:19:34.560
You can write your own answers and let's see whether they will actually take any notice of it at all.
01:19:40.940
I have to look through Living Well Together and then the Together initiative.
01:19:44.900
So the Together initiative, I've just deleted it.
01:20:00.760
I don't know whether I've got any of them up here.
01:20:10.940
So when I go back to who I was looking at, again, I've just deleted that one as well.
01:20:24.720
Maybe we can try and get it put back up because I think everybody needs to read who those seven people are, the trustees.
01:20:29.640
Those seven trustees are people who work as partners in law firms, partners in accountancy firms, partners for Saatchi and Saatchi.
01:20:39.840
These are just individuals who sit on a group that receives about a million pounds a year.
01:20:52.580
So these are not people that you see in political parties.
01:20:57.840
Dr. Michael Clark down there, it just looks like a simple professor.
01:21:10.840
If we go across to the next one, then they have a steering group.
01:21:19.720
Steering group, heads of big companies, Mike Clark, CEO there of RSPB.
01:21:34.620
Why don't you just go to Southport and ask the people, right?
01:21:49.220
He's a partner on the private equity side of an investment management firm for Deloitte's.
01:21:53.260
So all of those individuals who are the trustees of this charity are just people that you would kind of think, that's just an accountant, that's just a lawyer, that's just a banker.
01:22:10.240
I see the money's rising each year of $300,000 to $867,000 last year and then $993,000.
01:22:19.300
This is the organisation that is controlling and funding the commission.
01:22:24.420
This independent commission of Sajid Javid and John Cruddus is being provided with the money and control and the same language that comes from their documents is in that from this initiative called the Together Initiative with seven trustees who look like they're just bankers and lawyers.
01:22:44.240
And then when you go through the charity, which they all run, I look at the audited accounts on there, you can follow that all the way through, you then start to see that it's funded by the government.
01:22:57.300
You know, they have funded the big help out, the thank you day, the Together for Humanity, the Together Initiative.
01:23:04.740
They explain how our aim is to build a kinder and more closely connected communities from it.
01:23:14.240
And they get their funding and they've got, you can list the activities.
01:23:18.240
And now next one is how we're funding, this goes all the way through to the money.
01:23:25.180
It's come from the, a million pound of it, come from the National Lottery.
01:23:31.940
A million pound of this is the National Lottery.
01:23:36.140
And then Connor Tomlinson starts to take apart the individuals in it that we've talked about.
01:23:43.020
These individuals are all very bland, all very kind of centrist, all brought together because they say they're Greens, Labour, Left stories.
01:23:55.440
Are being funded by an organisation that's money from DCMS and the National Lottery.
01:24:01.480
So it's the state effectively funding an organisation with seven trustees who are bankers and lawyers to fund an organisation that's going to tell us what happened and why people rioted in Southport.
01:24:16.720
The amount of time and effort and money put into containment is madness, isn't it?
01:24:30.040
And this is the stuff that gets us angry in the first place.
01:24:32.760
And there's some really unpleasant people on this.
01:24:39.780
She worked with Hope Not Hate last December, declaring a two-tier policy in extremist conspiracy theories and temporary far-right narratives that asylum seekers seek to elude them as Muslim invaders.
01:24:51.000
All of this are the stuff that should go into the PREVENT programme and that we have far-right networks.
01:24:57.720
But she expanded the Home Office Islamic Network to over 700 individuals in terms of that.
01:25:05.500
So this is a group of individuals all working with each other as well in the background.
01:25:09.880
And I'll let people go and have a look a bit further on that, looking at the time.
01:25:13.880
And I would say they talk about a tinderbox of disconnection and division threatening in our democracy.
01:25:22.400
But here is just – this is the statement from them.
01:25:29.160
Rather than everyone go down, Sajid Javid and John Crudders talk about there is a timidity that is partly in government because there's no single lever that fixes things in the short term.
01:25:43.640
And there is no one authority in this country who feels they can lead the national discussion.
01:25:48.360
And they pick out Lee Kuan Yew and Charles de Gaulle as the type of individual that should be leading the discussion in this country about how we have cohesion.
01:26:03.580
For those who don't know him, he was the Prime Minister of Singapore for a very long time.
01:26:11.640
I would call that a dictator myself, personally speaking.
01:26:13.400
Yeah, wasn't it like a hardline – nationalist might not be the right word – but a Singapore –
01:26:21.540
Yeah, who kept out immigrants and ensured that they couldn't get jobs.
01:26:29.880
And I've even found – it doesn't take you long to find out about his concoction of Asian values was mainly to deter Westerners from criticising repressive regimes.
01:26:43.720
He worked with the Pentagon to help murder people through his head.
01:26:48.940
And so I'm just thinking, this is the sort of individual these guys think should be running the national argument in Britain at the moment.
01:26:55.700
A single dictator that effectively controlled immigrants for the purity of his own group of people who ran, as you saw, pretty much.
01:27:06.560
And some people called him a little Giuliano Stalin.
01:27:10.920
He was clever, disciplined, effective, prescient, racist, vicious, vindictive, and a control freak.
01:27:16.440
This is who Sajid Javid thinks should be the kind of archetypal individual.
01:27:30.220
I sort of do admire and very interested in Charles de Gaulle in various ways.
01:27:39.220
So I'm just going to end this because I'm looking also at time.
01:27:42.380
I want people to see how the establishment are organising themselves to control the message with the individuals and how they get their own money to their own people to run it.
01:27:51.360
And then they've got these really weird ideas of who should be controlling the system in Britain.
01:27:54.760
And then the way that they did the reports of the Brixton riots and the Skarman reports in the 1980s, that led to the extensions of race relation acts.
01:28:03.700
It led to housing, jobs, where we are, all in the idea of, like, diversity.
01:28:08.620
That's how they dealt with the riots of what they called the black people in the 1980s.
01:28:14.000
Why aren't they doing something similar to the way that we've rioted after the deaths of children in this country?
01:28:19.400
And that is because perhaps we need Lee Wan Kwan as a dictator in our country to control us all.
01:28:35.360
Well, Samson, do we have time for video comments?
01:28:40.400
Sorry, ladies and gentlemen, we'll do video comments tomorrow.
01:28:43.320
But we'll just go, I'll just read out one of the, for $10, thank you, GoodGodMan123 says,
01:28:52.280
According to a LGBTQ colleague, there are extreme right-wing groups in Sweden which go on pedo-hunting excursions and post pictures of the offenders in public.
01:29:08.840
And I'm not sure which segment that's related to, but still interesting to know.
01:29:16.280
Shall I just read a few comments from the segment before we go off?
01:29:23.280
So for your Palestine, Wombo, Palestine Action, Sophie Liv says,
01:29:28.700
What if they were trying to pollute the plane gasoline in an attempt to cause a plane crash?
01:29:34.800
I could have done any number of insane things if they'd wanted to.
01:29:39.420
Just shooting some paint in the turbine and ruining it is the least of it.
01:29:43.780
They could have done anything, really, couldn't they?
01:29:46.620
Canis Familiaris, the RF story reminds me of the Madlands episode about the guy who just walked into the U.S. military base, got into a tank and drove off.
01:29:58.300
Sounds like just freestyle on GTA, to be honest with you.
01:30:12.400
From my segment, you've got Lords and Quizter Hector X says,
01:30:16.400
New York is so expensive, like California, because of all the building regulation, illegals, and corruption.
01:30:22.660
That's why places in Texas have such good housing economy versus New York and California, because they deregulated things.
01:30:32.820
I don't think there's a way for Commissar Mom Danny to not become the mayor after this.
01:30:45.860
Everyone talks about people leaving California, but the New Yorkers are leaving as well.
01:30:50.280
I live in Ohio and keep seeing New York license plates.
01:30:58.600
And then, just from your segment, Stephen, to wrap up, Dirty Belter says,
01:31:03.700
How many billions are going to be spent on finding out something that could be achieved by walking into a pub and asking what's going on?
01:31:11.560
It's so obvious that that's not what this is for.
01:31:14.080
My guess is that the real purpose is to invent a reason.
01:31:25.580
Yeah, it's like the government are the only people who haven't realized this yet.
01:31:35.060
Anyway, that's all we've got time for today, ladies and gentlemen.
01:31:39.820
Common Sense Crew State starts at 3, so if you'd like, you can join Calvin Robinson for that.
01:31:44.960
And if not, then we'll see you at 1pm tomorrow.
