The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters - The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters #1241

00:00:00.400 Hello, everyone. Welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters. I'm your host, Elias, and

00:00:04.620 I'm joined today by Bo. Hello, Bo. And this is episode 1241, and this is Friday the 29th

00:00:13.320 of August of 2025, I believe, unless I'm horribly mistaken. Right. And today we're going to

00:00:19.600 discuss how Labour betrays us again, how the Green Party is a total joke, and how Democrats

00:00:27.120 are weak, and they can't bench. They really can't bench, and what a pathetic sight. Right. 0.99

00:00:34.160 So at 3 p.m. we have the Gold Zoom. It would be really nice for all of you to be there.

00:00:41.360 And we have Islander issue number four. Check it out. This is the fourth issue of our very

00:00:48.860 successful magazine. We have articles in it by Carl, by our editor Rory, by Luca. We have

00:00:56.800 also by Morgoth's Review, Dave Green. Lots of people are writing for the Islander. Check

00:01:03.580 it out. Just £14.99. It's not even £15. Right. We're live streaming on YouTube, so do leave

00:01:12.120 us a comment and we'll read it out towards the end of the segment. Thank you very much.

00:01:16.660 And today we're going to have a really good discussion, I think, because we are talking

00:01:22.740 simultaneously about pressing issues, the case with Bell Hotel in Epping, and the back and

00:01:30.120 forth between the council and the government and the people in the protests and the counter

00:01:34.100 protests. And then we're going to have, I'm sure, some really good discussion about things.

00:01:39.660 Right. So I think that one of the things we need to bear in mind when we're talking about

00:01:45.380 politics is that actions matter much more than words. Discourse is secondary relative to

00:01:53.140 action. And I think that labor is giving us completely mixed signals. It's like one of

00:01:59.380 those cases where you want to date a woman and she isn't exactly certain whether she wants

00:02:07.180 to date you or not. And she gives you mixed signal. I think that's what labor is doing 1.00

00:02:11.640 right now.

00:02:12.640 Yeah, mixed signal. It's a classic flip-flop. It's been their technique and the conservatives'

00:02:17.240 technique for years and years and years to sort of signal that they're going to be really

00:02:20.740 hard-line, really strong on something. And then when they don't and are brought to account

00:02:25.500 for it, they try and excuse themselves by coming out with some globalist hogwash. And

00:02:30.340 then at some point in the future, flip back to saying something really hard-line. It's

00:02:34.280 just, it's just all an exercise in wasting time. Yeah. And we're flooded by more and more

00:02:38.360 people all the, meanwhile. It's just that, on repeat. That's exactly what it is. So here

00:02:44.580 we have Schrodinger's Enoch Powell, Sir Keir Starmer, PM of the UK. He says, if you are thinking

00:02:52.680 about coming to the UK, legally don't. You will face detention and return.

00:02:57.220 Just not true. In very, very few cases anyway, is that true? Don't you believe him? He's

00:03:06.320 going to be ultra tough. Ultra tough against, you know, he's not for impunity. He also says

00:03:13.420 here, illegal immigration is driven by criminal people smuggling gangs. We're dismantling their

00:03:18.940 organizations, shutting down online accounts and arresting those responsible, smashing their

00:03:25.100 business model and securing your borders. Not doing any of that, it seems. If they are,

00:03:32.000 it's on such a small scale that it's not really making a dent. But Bo, he made the Island of

00:03:36.860 Strangers speech. Oh, right. So there you go. So that's... So what's going on? What's going

00:03:42.880 on here? Again, it's an exercise in wasting time. Yeah. So let's forget what Keir Starmer

00:03:49.620 says and let's see what the Labour government and the Home Office are doing. Right. So

00:03:54.620 we're going to talk about the infamous case of the Bell Hotel in Epping. I believe this

00:03:59.580 is in Essex. And Bo, you're from Essex. Yeah. Born and bred. Yeah. Yeah. Essex, the magnificent.

00:04:05.380 Essex boy. Born and bred. For anyone who doesn't know, that's a genuine Essex accent there.

00:04:10.520 Yeah. Yeah. No, I didn't even go up all that far from Epping. Debden, Fadenbois. Yeah. Yeah. I know

00:04:18.580 that part of the country. Yeah. Epping Forest is lovely. So to give you a good summary, if you're

00:04:23.360 watching from the US and are in particular familiar with the ongoing case with Epping, there's a hotel

00:04:30.100 in Epping that is used to house illegal migrants. I believe this is for decades now. It's not just

00:04:37.220 that it just happened now. They've done it even decades ago. And recently, a migrant was charged

00:04:43.640 with sexually assaulting a 14 year old. And there were protests. There were counter protests

00:04:51.320 by leftists. And we have all this discourse about the human rights of illegal migrants.

00:04:59.360 And then the council took legal action. They said, right, we need to do something about it.

00:05:04.480 They took legal action. And the high court decided to temporarily ban the hotel being used as a

00:05:12.060 asylum seeker, as a place to house asylum seekers. And then the government appealed the decision.

00:05:21.980 They say, we don't like your decision. We don't like your verdict. So maybe let's have different

00:05:28.900 judges. Different verdicts. I don't know. How does it sound?

00:05:34.060 Yeah. I mean, the fact that the government, the Home Office, decided to sort of intervene

00:05:38.340 there at all speaks volumes. It's like, no, it's not what we wanted. We wanted to force these people

00:05:43.640 on you. And like sort of, how dare you try and do anything about that?

00:05:47.680 Yeah.

00:05:48.460 I mean, that's what it is. That's exactly what's going on here. There's no other way.

00:05:51.260 There's no other way to interpret it.

00:05:54.000 Yeah. But if we bear in mind what Keir Starmer said, you would expect him to be a bit tough on it.

00:06:01.440 But it seems like he isn't. And it seems like the Home Office, led by Yvette Cooper, isn't.

00:06:07.060 In fact, it does the exact opposite. It doesn't say we're going to be tough on crime.

00:06:10.940 It doesn't say we're going to be tough on this.

00:06:12.580 It actually communicates that, no, we are going to protect this, this whole venture.

00:06:20.640 And the question is, you know, what is their line of argumentation at the end of the day?

00:06:26.560 And it's not so, they basically said the quiet part out loud.

00:06:31.260 Asylum seekers' rights are more important than the concerns of the people of Epping,

00:06:36.920 the Home Office has declared.

00:06:38.460 On Friday, a judge will rule whether Epping Forest District Council can close a hotel housing illegal migrants

00:06:46.640 or the Home Office can continue to use it to house asylum seekers.

00:06:50.240 On Thursday, Home Office lawyers told the Court of Appeal that Yvette Cooper had a duty as Home Secretary

00:06:56.580 to prevent asylum seekers from being made destitute under the European Convention of Human Rights

00:07:02.540 and so they should continue to live at Bell Hotel.

00:07:06.000 That's funny, because the PM said that they'll just be detained and deported.

00:07:11.100 So how is this even a thing at all?

00:07:14.000 Yeah, but they have to start at some point.

00:07:15.940 It's, you know, from today and afterwards.

00:07:17.900 But they have already come here.

00:07:19.960 All right.

00:07:20.580 Oh, well, so, all right.

00:07:23.140 I tried to get into the mind of a politician, you know,

00:07:26.340 who tries to speak a lot without saying anything.

00:07:28.500 In the meantime, it looks like or feels like that being, quote-unquote, detained is being put up in a hotel

00:07:37.440 and being deported is not being deported.

00:07:41.320 Yes.

00:07:43.120 Right.

00:07:43.720 So the question...

00:07:44.500 It's not funny, is it?

00:07:45.500 This is our country.

00:07:46.660 They're ruining our country in real time here.

00:07:49.220 So we have info about the judges.

00:07:55.060 They're saying that the judges who will be assessing the Epping case all have a leftist background.

00:08:01.740 Sure.

00:08:02.240 So to me, this doesn't exactly scream legitimacy.

00:08:05.740 It says, I don't agree with the judiciary and the verdict of the judge who said something I don't like.

00:08:15.060 So I will appeal this and I'm going to have different judges who most probably, I think it's 99%,

00:08:21.900 will yield a verdict that is pro-Yvette Cooper and Home Office.

00:08:28.000 Right.

00:08:28.700 So we have some claims here saying that they're going to appeal to Article 3 of the ECHR.

00:08:35.740 Sorry, who's going to appeal?

00:08:37.260 The people who are representing the side of the Home Office.

00:08:41.980 The lawyers representing the Home Office and the illegal migrants being housed in Epping.

00:08:51.220 So they very immediately and very directly appeal straight to human rights legislation in the ECHR?

00:08:56.500 Yes.

00:08:57.420 ECHR.

00:08:58.000 Every time.

00:08:58.760 Every time.

00:08:59.100 And I want to show you Article 3.

00:09:02.500 Okay.

00:09:03.360 But also I want to show you Article 8.

00:09:06.200 Because let me just be very clear.

00:09:07.780 I don't think the UK should be under the ECHR.

00:09:11.800 That's my personal opinion.

00:09:13.300 I may be wrong, but I don't think it helps the UK.

00:09:16.900 But even more, I think the problem isn't so much with the ECHR.

00:09:21.520 It's with the people entrusted in interpreting the ECHR.

00:09:25.180 Because I'll show you Article 8.

00:09:26.940 I think it's a bit more sensible than people make of it.

00:09:31.400 And in fact, I think it's a bit scandalous.

00:09:35.280 If you read Article 8 and you see what they are saying, the whole rhetoric, it's, say, maybe no.

00:09:44.840 I'd side with the ECHR of the Labour any day of the week.

00:09:48.360 Just out of interest, just as an aside, does Greece struggle with ECHR?

00:09:53.020 Do their leftists always cite the ECHR, why they can't deport?

00:09:58.380 Yeah, we are in the EU.

00:10:00.040 Yeah.

00:10:00.500 So we do have all these, all these regulations.

00:10:04.680 Yeah.

00:10:04.900 And, I mean, but does it, is it constantly the reason why your government refuses to deport people that have come straight across from North Africa, say?

00:10:13.620 Yes, it's to a large extent.

00:10:15.860 Also, there's pressure from NGOs and obviously the money behind it.

00:10:19.060 Because it's not some weird activists, ultimately, who have the last word.

00:10:23.100 It's the money behind them.

00:10:24.260 We have all sorts of NGOs who constantly talk about human rights violations.

00:10:29.320 They invent fake news sometimes with people who are dead in the borders and die from border crossings, which are lies.

00:10:40.160 And it's also the issue, we have seaborders, and they're talking constantly about pushbacks and how illegal, sadly, we are.

00:10:49.180 And the point is, in Greece, at least, you see some attempts to curb illegal migration.

00:10:55.920 But you also see, again, all the leftist establishment is trying to go inside with you.

00:11:03.000 So, broadly speaking, it's the same playbook, broadly speaking, in Greece.

00:11:07.700 Yes, the same playbook.

00:11:08.560 Interesting.

00:11:09.080 Right.

00:11:09.340 So, the people representing the Home Office, pardon me, are going to appeal to Article 3 of the ECHR, which says prohibition of torture.

00:11:20.100 Now, to my mind, no one spoke about torture.

00:11:24.860 The same way that deportations have been taking place for a long time, they don't constitute torture, necessarily.

00:11:34.140 There could be some cases, but I don't instantly see why they're putting it this way.

00:11:39.640 But most probably they want to have a crazily sentimentalist rhetoric.

00:11:43.460 And they say, no one shall be subjected to torture or to inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.

00:11:50.800 Okay.

00:11:53.120 So, the thing is, you've got someone from, let's say, originated in North Africa or Sub-Saharan Africa or wherever, really, from Albania, from Bangladesh, whatever it is.

00:12:04.300 And they're sitting in a camp for weeks or months on end in the Pas-de-Calais, Normandy somewhere.

00:12:11.920 Yeah.

00:12:12.380 But they're not actually, they're not guilty of any sort of punishable crime in their home country.

00:12:17.440 Yeah.

00:12:17.880 And then they get a boat across the Channel, and now we can't deport them because they might be subject to torture.

00:12:22.920 It's like, oh, it's nonsense.

00:12:24.280 Like, the other day, when Reformer Nigel came out with the thing that they want to deport 600,000 over five years.

00:12:30.500 I see someone, I can't remember who it was, some classic lefty guardianist person on Twitter saying, these 600,000 people will be killed if they're sent home.

00:12:39.840 It's like, what are you talking about?

00:12:41.740 What, all of them?

00:12:42.780 We don't even know.

00:12:43.440 That's an arbitrary number.

00:12:45.100 Yeah.

00:12:45.260 We don't know who either of us are actually talking about.

00:12:48.880 Yeah. 0.91

00:12:49.220 And you're saying they're all going to get tortured and or murdered if we deport them. 0.99

00:12:53.120 What nonsense.

00:12:53.760 So it's a crazy thing to hide behind that Article 3, is to use that as a complete coverall for never, ever deporting anyone ever.

00:13:01.540 Exactly.

00:13:02.360 It's crazy.

00:13:02.820 It's a crazy argument.

00:13:03.840 It functions like terms like offense.

00:13:07.720 Like, don't offend people.

00:13:09.640 Yeah.

00:13:09.900 Don't engage in psychological harming.

00:13:12.220 Or don't be an Islamophobe.

00:13:14.420 And that could do it with every notion.

00:13:17.140 You could use it as a blanket for everything.

00:13:19.020 Exactly.

00:13:19.600 Yeah.

00:13:19.760 Yeah.

00:13:20.640 And also, let us bear in mind that a lot of these people are asylum seekers.

00:13:25.940 They're making applications.

00:13:27.680 And they're not going through embassies.

00:13:30.480 They're not going through the legal route of going to embassies and asking for an asylum application via the embassy.

00:13:39.620 In fact, it's the opposite.

00:13:41.180 They don't go through the legal process.

00:13:43.180 And lo and behold, record 111,000 UK asylum applications in past year figures show.

00:13:53.180 Yes.

00:13:53.480 Obviously, the more inviting a system is, the more appealing it is to people, the more it sends the message, come here and we are going to give you access to all social benefits and money and housing.

00:14:09.880 Yeah.

00:14:10.260 The more people are going to come.

00:14:12.140 Yeah.

00:14:12.320 Right.

00:14:13.200 So, Article 8, right to respect for private and family life.

00:14:17.520 And it has two clauses.

00:14:19.460 Number one, everyone has the right to respect for his private and family life, his home and his correspondence.

00:14:25.680 Clause number two, there shall be no interference by a public authority with the exercise of this right, except such, as is in accordance with the law and is necessary in a democratic society in the interests of national security.

00:14:41.280 And it has the right to respect for the rights of national security, public safety, public safety or the economic well-being of the country for the prevention of disorder or crime for the protection of health or morals or for the protection of the rights and freedoms of others.

00:14:55.480 Wow.

00:14:56.840 So, there is no clause, there is nothing about this clause that screams that we support unconditional rights for anyone.

00:15:10.000 No matter what, you are entitled to the best treatment there is.

00:15:14.180 Oh, absolutely.

00:15:15.540 If a lawyer wanted to use that as an argument, they absolutely could, couldn't they?

00:15:21.340 Yeah.

00:15:21.500 If they wanted to sort of lean on Article 8 instead of Article 3, they could.

00:15:26.440 Exactly.

00:15:26.800 Because they're choosing not to, aren't they?

00:15:28.820 Yes.

00:15:29.280 Obviously.

00:15:29.500 Because all this says, I think this makes perfect sense because it says that, right, okay, maybe there needs to be a process, a legal process to recognize some asylum seekers in some cases.

00:15:44.060 I don't think the entire planet is in, you know, the Warhammer level type of war that suggests these numbers, but any kind of, any kind of gratitude that is shown to the asylum seeker by the state and society is conditional. 1.00

00:16:03.980 It's not unconditional.

00:16:05.220 And it's conditional upon things like national security, public safety, economic well-being of the country, the prevention of disorder or crime.

00:16:16.560 So, if you see this practice regularly making the economy worse by, you know, splitting, by lowering the GDP per capita.

00:16:29.140 Because, yeah, okay, if you have...

00:16:30.860 Flooding the labor market.

00:16:32.020 Yeah, decreasing wages for the working class, for the native working class.

00:16:38.320 If there is a surge in crime, if there is also a corruption of morals, because let's not kid ourselves, when people look at the treatment of the raping gangs case by the authorities,

00:16:55.320 yeah, they do have the idea that, you know, this practice loses legitimacy, that the state doesn't help them.

00:17:04.660 So, this doesn't contribute to any good situation.

00:17:08.500 It's not healthy.

00:17:09.280 So, I think that this is definitely an article and a clause that is more than enough to appeal to, in order to say that, guys, let's stop kidding ourselves.

00:17:22.100 It's not an issue of human rights.

00:17:23.840 It's an issue of political expediency.

00:17:25.880 They're pulling a leg.

00:17:27.000 Just because they are, they choose to do so for matters of political expediency.

00:17:32.280 If the government, if the Home Office, or rather the teams of Home Office lawyers, wanted to lean on Article 8, the bit in there alone that says economic well-being,

00:17:46.400 you could argue that unless these boat people or any asylum seeker can prove beyond sort of any questionable doubt that they're going to be an economic positive, 0.99

00:17:58.700 i.e. truly someone like a surgeon or an engineer, an experienced engineer with great skill sets that can go straight into the workplace and earn loads of money and pay loads of tax.

00:18:10.960 Unless you're one of those people, like unequivocally, then you constitute sort of a negative effect on the, quote, economic well-being.

00:18:20.780 So, your lawyers, your Home Office lawyers could go down that route and argue that all the time if they wanted to.

00:18:27.800 Yeah.

00:18:28.600 But they don't.

00:18:29.400 They could.

00:18:29.820 But they don't.

00:18:30.300 They don't want to.

00:18:31.100 And they don't because ultimately it's an issue of people.

00:18:33.500 And when it says there, for instance, the economic well-being of the country or for the protection of the rights and freedoms of others,

00:18:42.300 it looks like there is a surge in crime in some cases and there are lots of victims of, you know, people from particular backgrounds who come here illegally.

00:18:56.900 So, this is, their rights aren't taken into account.

00:19:04.580 And let me just give you an example with the Jamaican rapist who wasn't deported to Jamaica because they said that he was a member of the LGBTQ community and Jamaica isn't particularly work-friendly. 0.61

00:19:18.840 So, by taking, by deporting that person back into Jamaica, the risks of him falling victim to bad treatment would rise.

00:19:34.140 The question is, if you have people like this and do their sentence here and not, and they don't get deported afterwards, the same risk that they would run if they were deported is actually, is something that characterized those people here.

00:19:53.800 So, actually, virtue signaling governments who hide behind abstract human rights rhetoric are actually taking risks with people in their constituencies and in their countries that are risks that they aren't willing to take with the people that don't want to see deported, who are sometimes, you know, terrible criminals.

00:20:16.940 Yeah.

00:20:17.500 Right.

00:20:18.080 Absolutely.

00:20:18.820 Yeah.

00:20:20.020 They're our problem forever now.

00:20:21.700 Yeah.

00:20:22.380 And when it says that the economic well-being of the country, we need to remember that this is an abstract document.

00:20:31.340 The question is, who are the people who are interpreting it?

00:20:35.020 And again, I'll show you this before you anticipate, you sort of anticipated what I was going to say.

00:20:40.080 That's why I showed it before.

00:20:41.260 I'm going to show it again.

00:20:42.140 You have people like Gus O'Donnell, who was cabinet secretary between 2005 and 2011, who says,

00:20:50.840 I think it's my job to maximize global welfare, not national welfare.

00:20:55.800 Yeah.

00:20:56.140 So, how can you say on the one hand that I will abide by rules that say that I have to put the economic well-being of my country first and then say that I'm actually conceiving of my role as being the maximization of global welfare?

00:21:13.360 It's mad, isn't it?

00:21:14.940 For anyone who might not know, the role of cabinet secretary is extremely, extremely powerful.

00:21:23.240 Unbelievably powerful, really.

00:21:24.960 It's like the right hand.

00:21:26.840 Loads and loads, well, nearly all government policy will go through the cabinet secretary.

00:21:31.760 Right, so it's an insanely powerful, you're sort of the most, you are the most senior civil servant, really.

00:21:38.460 People call Gus O'Donnell God O'Donnell.

00:21:41.200 Yeah.

00:21:41.560 He's a god.

00:21:43.040 Right.

00:21:43.920 And he's the heart of darkness.

00:21:45.420 It's men like this, in future generations, when historians look back and say, how did it happen that Britain, and all over the world, but how is it that Britain got flooded with fifth colonists and enemies of the state? 0.81

00:21:57.020 Like, how did that sectarian war start?

00:21:59.120 Well, it's people like Gus O'Donnell that are ideologically captured and committed to that sort of thing.

00:22:08.240 An evil person, as far as I'm concerned.

00:22:10.360 And I don't think the, and I think the question is, one question is, how did it happen and how did it start?

00:22:18.840 But I think another question is, how does it continue?

00:22:22.680 Because another, because I can definitely conceive of someone saying, right.

00:22:27.020 The Cold War ended, now we're rampant individualists, the free market won, all kind of, you know, all the rhetoric of the Cold War, it ended.

00:22:37.740 So now we're just, let's just maximize profit.

00:22:41.040 And that's it.

00:22:42.920 I can understand how people could be lured into it.

00:22:46.480 But the point is, after a while, when we have lots of data suggesting that there are plenty of negative consequences, why do they react the way they react?

00:23:00.000 Instead of actually saying, listen, guys, we were being honest, we were, we were a bit ideological about it, just like, you know, commies, we were very ideological, we were young, we were very ideologues about it.

00:23:13.960 Let's just, okay, let's just mature, wake up, and...

00:23:18.300 I guess it's because they are ideologically captured.

00:23:22.720 Yeah.

00:23:22.840 I mean, they genuinely, I believe Gus O'Donnell genuinely believes that.

00:23:28.760 It's not that he's being paid by some nefarious George Soros type to say that.

00:23:33.600 Yeah.

00:23:33.700 I think he actually genuinely believes it.

00:23:35.560 That's why this, this idea that, it's like, it's the blue haired feminists that, that have done this. 1.00

00:23:43.600 It's like, it's, it's like, it's some, some shadowy cabal that has done this.

00:23:48.940 No, it's people like, it's people like Tony Blair and Gordon Brown and David Cameron and Gus O'Donnell.

00:23:57.140 It's those guys that did it.

00:24:00.520 Right.

00:24:01.120 And I think I'll end the segment with, with this from LBC.

00:24:05.100 The LBC frequently platforms some very left-wing people, like Luis Goro, who was talking about a hundred percent inheritance tax and trying to portray this as a sort of liberty maxing policy.

00:24:20.500 And I want to show this.

00:24:21.820 They are talking to Nelufor Hedayat, who fled Afghanistan as a child, who is talking about the inhuman treatment of women there.

00:24:31.540 And she says, Afghanistan is one of the worst places on earth to be a woman. 1.00

00:24:35.720 I absolutely believe her.

00:24:37.860 I absolutely believe her.

00:24:39.520 The question is, why aren't we allowed to have this conversation when we're talking about domestic issues?

00:24:46.320 And why are we just allowed to have this conversation only when, when the Farage or reform is talking about the prospect of deportations?

00:24:58.420 Suddenly, not all cultures are equal.

00:25:00.340 So if LBC is platforming people or people who are saying this, I believe, yeah, okay, just fair, fair, fair, fair play.

00:25:10.040 Yes.

00:25:10.600 But we should absolutely have this conversation because why is it one of the worst places on earth to be a woman?

00:25:16.220 It has to do with some practices and it has to do with some institutions and, you know, elements of the culture.

00:25:24.060 Religion.

00:25:24.640 Yeah.

00:25:24.900 So why is, is it, is it an extremist question to ask, you know, whether some cultures are compatible and whether, you know, why, why is, why is culture sadly an issue here, but not an issue when we have people like Chris Bryant saying that, no, human rights are universal.

00:25:45.600 Not partial, not partial and deny the humanity of others and someone else will soon deny yours too.

00:25:51.480 Yeah.

00:25:51.860 They are, they are actually people who deny the humanity of women in Afghanistan. 1.00

00:25:56.380 Yeah.

00:25:56.480 I believe that.

00:25:57.440 Why do we want that elsewhere?

00:26:00.580 It's just such a crazy and obvious double standard.

00:26:04.060 When people are coming from Afghanistan to here, don't worry about it. 0.99

00:26:08.380 Don't worry about their values and their culture.

00:26:10.900 That'd be racist or bigoted to worry or even think or even talk about or notice that.

00:26:15.060 But when it comes to sending them back, we couldn't possibly do that because of their terrible culture and everything.

00:26:23.800 But yeah, I mean, someone like Chris Bryant is, to me, someone suffering from a type of insanity, a type of insanity to sort of refuse to accept reality.

00:26:36.200 Reality, the evidence of your own eyes and ears at the cost, at the detriment of your country and your people on a massive scale.

00:26:43.440 Not like the odd incident, the odd unfortunate incident, but on a mass scale to be gunning as hard as you can for the replacement of your own people in their ancestral homeland.

00:26:54.120 Their rape and murder and replacement. 0.99

00:26:55.800 What, that's mad, that is mad. 0.99

00:26:57.040 That is a type of madness to me.

00:26:58.480 And people like him sometimes deliberately shield themselves from evidence.

00:27:05.220 Oh yeah, of course.

00:27:05.660 They say, any person who shows me evidence commits hate speech.

00:27:09.520 Yeah, of course, yeah.

00:27:10.660 Right, let's go to the comments.

00:27:12.680 Okay.

00:27:15.040 Right.

00:27:16.980 GWA. 0.57

00:27:18.140 Here's my two cents accounting for inflation.

00:27:21.040 Thank you very much.

00:27:26.580 Thank you very much.

00:27:27.260 Stelios, it is not a lack of data or education that keeps these up.

00:27:31.600 They did not care for the things we care about.

00:27:34.120 They know we're hurting and want that.

00:27:37.680 Ah, Swedish coronas.

00:27:39.520 Right.

00:27:53.660 Says, if we want international law to be upheld,

00:27:56.640 I think the legal doctrine of necessity is a perfect, reasonable defense

00:28:02.560 to dispensing with the ECHR.

00:28:06.740 Okay.

00:28:07.960 June.

00:28:08.840 June.

00:28:24.060 So, Riot9.

00:28:25.320 Is this Australian dollar?

00:28:51.120 if there was no third option,

00:28:53.620 let me just read it.

00:28:57.600 So, I'm not.

00:28:58.420 Okay.

00:28:59.020 If there was no third option,

00:29:00.440 would you rather have all the illegals plus the Boris wave 0.92

00:29:04.060 be replaced with French people or with Italians?

00:29:09.560 Oh, Italians. 1.00

00:29:11.040 No question.

00:29:13.380 I'm an Englishman.

00:29:14.060 Of course, I'm not going to choose Italians over... 0.99

00:29:16.560 Right.

00:29:17.020 And Stephen Nizek for $5.

00:29:21.100 Thank you very much.

00:29:22.180 Says,

00:29:22.600 Asmongold has a video reacting to a Sargon video

00:29:25.240 regarding mass deportations.

00:29:26.940 Any chance for Asmongold on Lotus Seaters? 0.95

00:29:30.560 I'd love to talk to Asmongold.

00:29:32.320 I'd love that as well.

00:29:33.520 I've actually only been watching Asmongold

00:29:36.200 for like about six weeks.

00:29:38.520 I've been aware of him for ages,

00:29:40.440 like everyone has,

00:29:40.960 but I never, ever, ever watched him.

00:29:42.780 And about two months ago, six weeks ago,

00:29:44.340 one of my friends said,

00:29:46.240 oh, do you know Asmongold?

00:29:47.780 I'm like, I know of him.

00:29:48.780 I don't watch him.

00:29:49.660 And my friend just said,

00:29:50.740 oh, no, he's good.

00:29:51.300 He's worth watching.

00:29:52.440 And so I watched like one of his videos.

00:29:54.200 And ever since then,

00:29:55.420 YouTube just keeps pushing them on me.

00:29:57.420 And because quite often they're short,

00:29:58.880 like really short.

00:29:59.500 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:30:00.200 I've actually clicked and watched,

00:30:02.280 like, I don't know,

00:30:02.820 20, 30 Asmongolds 1.00

00:30:04.200 over the last few weeks.

00:30:06.060 And he's grown on me.

00:30:07.460 Yeah.

00:30:07.600 I quite like him.

00:30:08.400 I'd definitely have a conversation with a man.

00:30:10.460 Great.

00:30:10.700 I'd be interested to see his reaction

00:30:12.340 to whatever Carl was saying.

00:30:14.380 Yeah.

00:30:14.800 Because he's pretty much on our side, right?

00:30:16.560 He's like...

00:30:17.500 Good guy.

00:30:18.980 Yeah, he seems to be.

00:30:19.840 Yeah.

00:30:20.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:30:20.440 Right.

00:30:20.800 So, OPHEK,

00:30:22.480 I care about how women are mistreated in Afghanistan, 0.80

00:30:24.920 but I care more about how Afghans mistreat our women here. 1.00

00:30:28.200 Right.

00:30:28.760 Perfect.

00:30:29.220 Yeah, yeah.

00:30:30.700 Poopmaster2000.

00:30:32.380 What a name.

00:30:33.380 That's nice.

00:30:34.100 Right.

00:30:34.480 For $50.

00:30:35.660 Thank you very much.

00:30:37.060 Bo,

00:30:38.040 the contrast of such a soft-spoken man

00:30:40.880 dishing out such uncompromising and vicious takes

00:30:43.980 never ceases to amuse me.

00:30:46.380 Skibbidi on with your unwavering passion.

00:30:48.600 Oh, well, thank you.

00:30:50.520 Nice.

00:30:50.860 I can do no other.

00:30:54.740 And OPHEK again, thank you.

00:30:57.760 Work with an Afghan fan guy.

00:31:00.800 Brings knives to work.

00:31:02.640 Tells us how he gets into fights with strangers.

00:31:06.380 Wanted to stab me for disrespecting Moe.

00:31:10.160 Yeah. 0.70

00:31:11.560 Wilvah K,

00:31:12.440 someone who is not a particular...

00:31:15.240 Appears to be a...

00:31:16.880 Not a particularly good guy.

00:31:18.900 Wilvah K in Afghanistan soon as he gets his papers.

00:31:22.720 And we have also a...

00:31:24.740 What's that, Samson?

00:31:26.160 Swedish Corona.

00:31:27.380 Yeah.

00:31:28.000 Right.

00:31:28.220 We have 100 Swedish Corona donations by Anders L.

00:31:32.540 Thank you very much.

00:31:33.840 Seems like a blank comment.

00:31:35.740 So, thank you very much.

00:31:36.840 And also we have by Kevin Tierney for £5.

00:31:41.700 If you guys magically got rid of the NHS,

00:31:45.260 would Britain's birth rate go up or down?

00:31:47.960 That's an interesting question.

00:31:52.180 I've got no idea.

00:31:54.540 There'll still be some sort of private health, I imagine.

00:31:57.660 I mean, in countries where they don't have a completely socialized healthcare system,

00:32:01.740 people still have babies, don't they? 0.85

00:32:03.360 Also, I want to say I'm a bit tired of the demographic doom and gloom predictions of people

00:32:09.680 because it's just, you know, it's below replacement or something.

00:32:14.360 Demographic predictions or projections are notoriously mistaken.

00:32:19.980 It doesn't mean that just because the birth rate is what it is right now,

00:32:26.160 it doesn't mean it's always going to be like that.

00:32:28.000 Yeah, absolutely.

00:32:28.680 Maybe it goes up.

00:32:29.720 Maybe it goes down.

00:32:30.460 I don't know.

00:32:30.840 But I just don't...

00:32:32.980 It's getting a bit much.

00:32:35.920 Well, I completely agree.

00:32:37.460 For a start, I don't agree that the bigger the population is,

00:32:40.100 the more revenues you get.

00:32:42.840 And therefore, it's just simply always good.

00:32:45.260 I don't believe that for a start.

00:32:46.400 And secondly, exactly as you said, the idea that if the birth rate is below the death rate,

00:32:53.820 i.e. the population just is going to decline,

00:32:56.460 that there's anything like that, like that that's an existential threat,

00:33:00.520 like that will just keep declining until there's no one left.

00:33:03.300 No, no, no, nonsense.

00:33:06.160 Populations can go up and down.

00:33:07.980 Yeah.

00:33:08.120 I mean, even if you look at the past where there's been like massive population decreases,

00:33:12.960 like the amount of menfolk that died in World War I, say,

00:33:16.400 or the black death in the 14th century, say.

00:33:20.240 I didn't mean that the population just went down, declined forever,

00:33:24.120 and then there's no English people anymore.

00:33:25.940 It doesn't work like that.

00:33:26.900 I think we should be...

00:33:27.820 It can go up and down.

00:33:28.900 We should do something about it at the point.

00:33:31.020 Yeah.

00:33:31.260 Should we go on the total joke that the Green Party is?

00:33:34.760 Yeah, okay.

00:33:35.340 So, massive news, Stelios.

00:33:39.340 Massive, massive news.

00:33:40.500 There's going to be a leadership, or there already has been, really,

00:33:43.500 a leadership contest in the Green Party.

00:33:45.800 It's seismic stuff for British politics.

00:33:49.800 Is that why I couldn't sleep at night?

00:33:51.600 It's massive.

00:33:55.620 This is massive.

00:33:57.000 Throw away the history books, because there might be a change in the Green Party.

00:34:02.520 No, I mean, sort of my angle on this is that the Greens are a joke, complete joke.

00:34:07.260 Yeah. 0.53

00:34:07.440 And they're massively astroturfed as well.

00:34:09.880 That's one of the first points I'd like to make.

00:34:12.500 The mainstream media like to make out that there's obviously the three main parties,

00:34:17.440 or four now, but the Labour, Conservative, Lib Dems, the classic, old school, heritage, legacy,

00:34:23.280 three main parties.

00:34:24.460 But now throw reform in, especially as they're actually leading the polls.

00:34:27.880 They're actually leading them healthily.

00:34:30.720 So, let's say there's four main parties.

00:34:32.780 Let's say that.

00:34:33.380 So, after those four main parties, then the mainstream media will often like to throw in

00:34:40.920 the lesser parties.

00:34:44.180 And the Greens will always get a shout in that sort of tier, that sort of echelon of the best

00:34:51.320 of the rest type small parties.

00:34:54.060 But they're tiny, really.

00:34:57.260 They're tiny, really.

00:34:59.120 I mean, I think...

00:35:00.440 So, they've been around since the 70s, I believe.

00:35:03.880 Been around since the 70s.

00:35:05.360 And were sort of co-opted and infiltrated and subverted by commies, sort of, really quickly.

00:35:10.360 Like, in the 70s still.

00:35:12.040 Weren't they a creation of commies in the 60s where they said, right, we need to create

00:35:17.080 a new left now?

00:35:18.920 Sort of, yeah, basically.

00:35:20.620 I think in the very, very first instance, it was truly a movement or a party about sort

00:35:27.260 of environmentalism.

00:35:28.440 But as I say, very, very quickly, within the space of just a few years, was, yeah, co-opted

00:35:32.220 by hardcore lefties.

00:35:34.540 Right?

00:35:35.620 It's funny, actually, isn't it?

00:35:36.600 Sort of, just a broader point here.

00:35:38.480 That there are broad trends when it comes to political thinking and worldview.

00:35:43.040 The idea that if you're right-leaning, let's use America, for example, if you're sort of

00:35:48.660 a MAGA person or a Republican, you are very, very likely to not be particularly interested

00:35:55.200 in environmentalism.

00:35:56.480 Yeah.

00:35:57.100 Right?

00:35:57.280 They don't necessarily have anything to do with each other.

00:35:59.840 Right?

00:36:00.060 In terms of pure political ideology, like having a small government and all that sort of thing,

00:36:04.260 doesn't necessarily mean you're going to be anti-environmentalism.

00:36:08.300 But that's just the way it often goes.

00:36:09.720 Trump said he loves fresh air.

00:36:12.560 Yeah.

00:36:14.340 Drill, baby, drill. 1.00

00:36:16.040 Yeah.

00:36:16.720 It's just often the way, isn't it, that sort of environmentalism will go hand in hand with

00:36:21.580 sort of leftism.

00:36:23.460 It's not always the case.

00:36:24.600 As I say, it doesn't have to be that way.

00:36:26.360 You can get extremely conservative people with a small C who are completely into and extremely

00:36:31.540 interested and worried about the environment and things.

00:36:33.920 And vice versa, you can get a hardcore lefty that is all about oil rigs.

00:36:40.220 It's possible.

00:36:40.620 Let's just make the planet into a Coruscant. 0.97

00:36:44.240 Yeah.

00:36:46.680 Yeah.

00:36:47.160 You can get a socialist that loves dropping litter or whatever, you know.

00:36:50.600 That would be rare.

00:36:51.480 But anyway.

00:36:52.280 So, okay.

00:36:54.060 Rare?

00:36:55.720 So, I think that, I don't think I know.

00:36:58.060 It is the case that the Green Party are, they're astroturfed, really.

00:37:02.600 They're given more airtime and more sort of column space and more sort of interest from

00:37:10.160 mainstream media than they deserve, in my opinion.

00:37:12.500 And the irony of that is that they quite often, people like this quite often, are moaning

00:37:15.860 about, you know, a small party like, I don't know, like David Curtin's party or even reformed

00:37:21.220 before the last election.

00:37:22.500 They would always moan, why are you platforming these Nazis? 0.98

00:37:25.560 Why are you even letting anyone know that they exist?

00:37:29.420 You're astroturfing them.

00:37:30.300 No, no, you're the astroturfed ones.

00:37:32.420 Yeah.

00:37:32.940 If anything.

00:37:33.600 I think they're containment, basically, who is bred for coalitions.

00:37:38.020 Because occasionally they find themselves in several governing coalitions.

00:37:41.520 And they give a sort of virtue signaling, you know, aura or dimension in the coalition.

00:37:51.000 And that's why they're astroturfed, I think.

00:37:53.240 I can think of them in Germany, for instance, and it's peak micromanagement of decline.

00:37:58.900 Like, crime surges in train stations, let's have women-only carriages. 1.00

00:38:02.840 That was their proposal.

00:38:05.040 Perfect example.

00:38:05.960 Yeah.

00:38:06.140 Or ban knives.

00:38:07.300 Right.

00:38:07.840 Yeah, yeah.

00:38:08.380 Ban all knives.

00:38:09.220 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:38:09.660 Don't have pointy knives.

00:38:11.060 Yeah.

00:38:11.640 You have to get Big Brother's permission to have a kitchen.

00:38:15.960 No more pointy knives.

00:38:16.920 Cleavers only.

00:38:17.920 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:38:18.580 And the blade on the cleaver can't be too keen.

00:38:22.080 That will sort everything out.

00:38:23.840 Yeah, sure.

00:38:25.240 Yeah.

00:38:25.580 No, it's actually an interesting point.

00:38:26.900 A good point.

00:38:27.220 I was going to leave it towards the end, but let's just say it now.

00:38:29.800 Yeah, if we're moving, and it seems that we are, moving into a world of many, many more

00:38:34.720 parties, a much more multi-party world, in Great Britain anyway, then, yeah, smaller

00:38:41.000 parties, have even got like two or three or five MPs or something, really will be of much

00:38:47.800 more significance if, like, coalitions sort of have to be formed all the time, or much

00:38:53.860 more often.

00:38:55.380 Because in Britain, we, I mean, there's the Cameron, Lib Dem, Nick Clegg years, but beyond

00:39:01.380 that, we rarely have coalition governments.

00:39:04.780 And I think in the future, I think, I mean, I'm even talking decades in the future, it'll

00:39:09.420 be much more likely that coalitions will be formed.

00:39:12.840 And you're right that sometimes a small party with, I mean, you look at the Unionists, Northern

00:39:20.020 Ireland Unionists or something, yeah, they could be the difference between being able

00:39:23.220 to form a government or not, when they've only got a tiny number of MPs.

00:39:26.500 So, yeah, the Greens, so their first MP was Caroline Lucas in like 2010.

00:39:32.020 That was their first MP ever.

00:39:33.260 So, they've been around since the 70s, but they never actually even had one MP until 2010.

00:39:40.880 And even now, they've only got a very small number, haven't they?

00:39:43.340 I think they've got four.

00:39:46.840 Yeah, and they've got a number of councillors and things.

00:39:49.760 And to be fair, they're not, I don't mean to say that they're utterly insignificant.

00:39:55.760 They're not.

00:39:56.060 I believe at the last election, they got something in the order of 6% or something, 5, 6, 7%.

00:40:01.860 Yeah, that's not nothing.

00:40:03.120 That's absolutely not nothing.

00:40:04.540 So, I'm not saying that.

00:40:06.360 But they're not truly popular.

00:40:09.160 They're not truly, truly popular.

00:40:11.140 I can conceive of Greens entering into coalitions with both, you know, small-c conservatives and

00:40:18.120 leftist parties, but I can think of them, I can conceive of them creating problems for

00:40:24.440 a coalition that is led by small-c conservatives, but I can't think of them as creating trouble

00:40:31.220 for a leftist-led coalition.

00:40:34.060 Well, I've got an article towards the end that I was going to read, but in that, yeah,

00:40:37.140 one of their main people, which I'll talk about in a moment, is Zach Polanski.

00:40:42.660 He said, he just explicitly said that he'd be willing to work with, closely work with,

00:40:47.400 that Jeremy Corbyn, Zara Sultana party.

00:40:51.680 Yeah, so, yeah, of course there would be happy bedfellows with any sort of lefties, and I

00:40:59.060 imagine, or wouldn't want to, it wouldn't be their first choice to work with any right-leaning

00:41:04.120 or even centre-right-leaning parties, but...

00:41:07.400 The point is, honestly, when I hear Greens, they just don't seem to be the types of people

00:41:12.740 who talk only about the environment.

00:41:14.660 Mostly, they talk about woke stuff.

00:41:16.340 Well, this is the thing, this is the thing, this is my main angle about them, is that

00:41:20.960 the environmental side is now, at this point, purely and obviously, just a smokescreen

00:41:28.560 to cover up communism, and globalism, and Islamism, all the things that aren't in the interest 0.97

00:41:39.340 of certainly your average native.

00:41:43.300 Yeah.

00:41:43.800 Yeah, all those things.

00:41:45.680 So, okay, they're going for a...

00:41:47.180 They've got a new leader, they've had a leadership campaign.

00:41:51.400 And the results, I believe it's already happened, and their members have already voted and everything,

00:41:54.960 and the results are going to be released on Tuesday next week.

00:41:58.020 Okay, so, a lot of people that are in the know said that maybe this Zach Polanski chap

00:42:03.820 is going to be their next leader.

00:42:06.340 He's certainly been astroturfed really hard.

00:42:08.660 Like, he gets all over the place.

00:42:10.580 I've seen him on LBC, I've seen him on Laura Kunisberg, on the BBC, you get on ITV, Sky News,

00:42:17.160 Jeremy Vine, the whole shebang.

00:42:19.560 Yeah.

00:42:19.820 Their astroturfing him is so hard.

00:42:21.520 Meanwhile, his own YouTube account's got 2.8 thousand subs.

00:42:25.520 So, no one, really.

00:42:26.880 No one is actually...

00:42:27.600 He has more than he does.

00:42:29.420 Than he has.

00:42:30.060 Yeah.

00:42:30.980 I think so.

00:42:31.980 That's not 280,000, that's 2.8...

00:42:34.660 2.81, yeah, yeah.

00:42:35.800 Less than 3,000.

00:42:36.920 Yeah, so that's small.

00:42:41.480 What is he saying?

00:42:42.900 To be honest, I was glad and lucky before this segment, because I didn't know of him.

00:42:49.400 But I have the impression that you are going to actually make me cringe with what you're

00:42:55.240 going to show me.

00:42:55.960 Oh, well, he just says anything and everything. 0.84

00:42:58.180 The classic, all the lefty commie nonsense. 0.58

00:43:02.200 All of it. 0.57

00:43:03.180 Greens of the world unite.

00:43:04.520 I mean, it's the classic, it's the politics of resentment and envy and jealousy, and that

00:43:10.080 rich people are the problem, always.

00:43:12.680 The Greens of all the world have nothing to lose but their diesel engines. 0.95

00:43:16.580 Yeah.

00:43:17.740 It's just not possible that any foreign person could be a concern.

00:43:21.240 It's the billionaires we need to eat.

00:43:25.380 And those who drive diesel cars.

00:43:27.340 You know, I can't make peace with them.

00:43:30.220 I can't make peace with them, because they want to turn the entire country into a EULA zone.

00:43:36.420 Yeah.

00:43:37.480 That's actually going to harm the working class, because, you know, diesel is cost-effective

00:43:42.840 in some cases.

00:43:43.860 They're barely even talking about environmental stuff anyway.

00:43:46.140 No, they're talking about, yeah, other stuff, yeah.

00:43:48.880 I mean, it really, it really is a smokescreen.

00:43:51.080 So, like, what is he? 0.67

00:43:52.760 He's a Jewish, gay, vegan, socialist in a green, in a green skin suit. 0.70

00:44:02.240 Yeah. 0.98

00:44:02.460 That's who he is.

00:44:03.200 And so, yeah, just all over the news is Zak Polanski, Zak Polanski, Zak Polanski, the Guardian.

00:44:14.560 He thought politics was a dirty thing.

00:44:17.280 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:44:18.560 What does he say there in the Guardian article?

00:44:20.300 What was it?

00:44:23.040 Eco-populism.

00:44:25.000 Yeah, eco-populism.

00:44:25.940 Yeah, makes sense.

00:44:27.180 Makes sense, dude.

00:44:29.400 Yeah, so it's like the Financial Times, even.

00:44:31.240 They must tap into anger.

00:44:33.660 Must they?

00:44:34.380 Must they?

00:44:35.000 Really?

00:44:36.160 Just all over the place.

00:44:37.940 Zak Polanski, Zak Polanski.

00:44:39.900 And, to be fair, and this is a value judgment, purely my own personal opinion, he's really

00:44:45.060 obnoxious.

00:44:46.320 Yeah.

00:44:46.880 On top of having the worst worldview, a terrible worldview, something that would completely

00:44:53.520 tank our economy and just endless migration.

00:44:57.000 What is it?

00:44:57.400 And just like a pure, pure, well, something approaching evil in my mind.

00:45:01.660 On top of that, he's actually obnoxious as well.

00:45:05.360 So, Starmer needs to be more scared of us than reform.

00:45:08.860 Who is he talking about?

00:45:10.020 Yeah.

00:45:10.700 Is he talking about Treebeard and the Ents about to attack Isengard with the trees?

00:45:17.100 Starmer needs to be more scared of us than reform.

00:45:20.340 What planet are you living on, dude?

00:45:22.580 What planet?

00:45:23.920 I mean, he reckons he's going to get 40 seats at the next general election.

00:45:26.940 Yeah, but it's elite theory because his 2.8k subscribers may form a shadowy cabal of elites

00:45:32.740 who are going to scare Starmer away.

00:45:35.420 Super powerful.

00:45:36.440 Every single one of those 2.8,000 subs are like super powerful Westminster elites.

00:45:40.960 Yeah, yeah, that's the case.

00:45:42.060 They're the chads that are going to resurrect antiquity.

00:45:44.640 Yeah, right.

00:45:47.000 Okay, so, I mean, imagine if you were, unfortunately I've got to say, sort of fairly credulous, gullible

00:45:53.960 environmentalist.

00:45:56.720 Imagine that was just you.

00:45:57.860 You were just like a little old lady that was really into recycling and making sure you 1.00

00:46:01.520 put the right bit of plastic and paper in the right bin.

00:46:03.780 And you really care about how polluted the oceans are.

00:46:10.440 You're really worried about that.

00:46:12.860 And so you vote green.

00:46:14.640 You voted green ever since the 70s or whatever.

00:46:17.180 And now you realise, and suddenly, like at what point do you realise, oh, the Green Party,

00:46:23.600 I was just interested in having like a, oh, what's the thing you put on your roof?

00:46:30.560 Solar panels.

00:46:31.020 I was just interested in having solar panels on my roof, but now we're talking about getting

00:46:36.220 rid of the rich and 100% inheritance tax or 50% inheritance tax or something.

00:46:40.400 Like, when did that come from?

00:46:42.000 Where did that come from?

00:46:43.400 I feel sorry for those people, those genuine environmentalists that are just worried about

00:46:47.980 the ozone layer and CFCs, right?

00:46:51.320 That type of person, right?

00:46:53.120 Who's genuine, right?

00:46:55.220 I feel a bit sorry for them because they've been, they've had the mickey taken out of them.

00:46:59.200 They're being duped if those people are still voting green.

00:47:04.900 There's no reason to vote green.

00:47:06.980 There's no reason to vote green.

00:47:08.180 If you're a uni party person, you've got a couple of different options.

00:47:11.000 If you're a full Islamist person, you can vote for Corbyn. 1.00

00:47:14.400 Right.

00:47:14.820 So, there's no reason to vote green at all.

00:47:19.620 But I thought, you know, let him, let Polanski, let's let him speak for himself.

00:47:25.040 Stop censoring him.

00:47:26.900 Yeah, I don't want to put words in his mouth.

00:47:30.200 Let's hear him himself.

00:47:31.260 So, this is his little pitch to be the leader of the Green Party.

00:47:34.180 I met a man recently. 0.99

00:47:35.880 Said he wanted to stand on a beach like this one, with a gun, and shoot the people coming 0.97

00:47:42.320 across on small boats. 0.98

00:47:44.240 Said it like he was just talking about the weather.

00:47:46.880 The worst bit, wasn't even that shocking.

00:47:50.100 Because it's this obsession that has gripped the country.

00:47:53.780 The boats, the boats.

00:47:54.820 The music, the sad violin.

00:47:57.400 The boats, the boats.

00:47:59.180 Yet something doesn't add up.

00:48:01.100 Our NHS is crumbling.

00:48:03.200 Our wages are frozen.

00:48:04.940 Our rents are obscene.

00:48:06.440 And our rivers are open sewers.

00:48:08.620 And all those in power can do is blame the boats.

00:48:13.000 Wait, you talk about the NHS crumbling and rents going through the roof and wages down.

00:48:17.960 But it's wrong to worry about the influx of loads more people.

00:48:23.000 Yeah.

00:48:23.240 How does that make any sense?

00:48:24.820 Makes zero sense.

00:48:25.580 It doesn't make any sense. 0.96

00:48:26.260 He's talking absolute nonsense. 1.00

00:48:27.480 More people, more trash. 1.00

00:48:29.420 Sorry? 1.00

00:48:29.880 More people, more trash. 0.99

00:48:31.340 I'm not saying that people are trash. 1.00

00:48:31.860 Well, there's that as well. 0.99

00:48:32.700 I'm saying that you consume more products and you have to take away your rubbish.

00:48:37.640 The actual environmental angle as well.

00:48:40.120 Yeah.

00:48:40.680 Yeah.

00:48:41.320 I thought you were worried about the environment.

00:48:42.920 But no, a million more people a year, every year, endlessly, still.

00:48:47.520 It's just, it's insane.

00:48:50.720 You could only believe it if you, like, if you suffer from such cognitive dissonance that

00:48:56.060 you've abandoned paying any attention to your own cognitive dissonance.

00:49:00.140 That's the only way you could believe this.

00:49:02.100 Labour repeats it like it's gospel.

00:49:04.560 This idea that there's no money left.

00:49:06.240 And then they stoke racist narratives about strangers. 0.96

00:49:10.640 Racist.

00:49:11.860 Oasis. 0.99

00:49:12.800 Say it.

00:49:13.740 Let's say it all together.

00:49:15.980 Destroying everything. 1.00

00:49:17.280 What I call bullshit. 1.00

00:49:18.640 Where do we draw the line? 0.99

00:49:20.380 Language, please. 1.00

00:49:21.020 He said bullshit. 0.99

00:49:21.980 He's a strong man. 1.00

00:49:23.060 Yeah, yeah.

00:49:23.480 He's a strong leader.

00:49:25.000 I mean, he is bullshitting us.

00:49:26.800 Oh, yeah.

00:49:27.480 Yeah.

00:49:27.760 Well, that's the irony of this.

00:49:29.220 Yeah. 1.00

00:49:29.600 It's just an endless spiel of bullshit from this chump. 1.00

00:49:34.020 On the lies, the scapegoating, the idea that there's no money left in this country, 1.00

00:49:39.020 there is plenty of money.

00:49:41.060 Oh, there's still some rich people.

00:49:43.720 There's still some rich, there's some kulaks left. 1.00

00:49:46.240 Yeah.

00:49:46.620 There's money.

00:49:47.200 Don't you dare pretend you haven't got any money left that we can't steal from you.

00:49:52.240 Don't you dare.

00:49:55.520 More than ever, just not for us.

00:49:58.240 Since COVID, there are more billionaires than they've ever been. 0.96

00:50:02.280 Billionaires are evil. 0.90

00:50:04.360 Yeah. 1.00

00:50:05.260 Billionaires are the worst thing. 0.99

00:50:07.600 They're the worst thing. 0.97

00:50:09.280 Yeah, he's watching too much Squid Game all the time, maybe, you know, just.

00:50:13.100 This thing that all leftists have, like, the billionaires are like, that's the problem.

00:50:21.460 Sitting there in the lounge, you know, with a foodstool there, saying, oh, play a 456.

00:50:26.880 He died, you know.

00:50:29.600 Like, it is the classic true communist eat the rich.

00:50:33.600 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:50:34.140 Like, the first enemy is rich people.

00:50:38.540 That's, it's the kind of grift, you know, I mean, I like Aerosmith, the band, but you

00:50:43.340 know, they had the song, Eat the Rich.

00:50:45.540 But also, they don't seem to me to be particularly poor themselves.

00:50:49.520 Oh, yeah.

00:50:50.040 So, it's just.

00:50:50.840 Isn't Steve Tyler the rich?

00:50:53.160 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:50:54.500 Yeah.

00:50:55.440 Maybe he forgot it because he was a bit stoned when he wrote it.

00:50:58.140 So, let's finish up with this, this, this complete mug.

00:51:02.700 Their wealth doubled, ours has been stripped away.

00:51:06.100 So, no wonder people are angry.

00:51:08.560 Because while we feel the walls are closing in, the elites, they got to work.

00:51:13.580 They flooded Westminster with lobbyists.

00:51:15.800 They made sure that.

00:51:17.060 Oh, it's Westminster being flooded with lobbyists that's the problem.

00:51:21.040 Yeah, the boats with lobbyists.

00:51:22.280 That's the problem.

00:51:23.420 Not, not, not the actual towns and cities being flooded with unvetted foreign criminals.

00:51:29.200 I think.

00:51:29.600 Not that.

00:51:30.280 Not that.

00:51:30.840 It is an issue of population.

00:51:32.600 There are too many billionaires.

00:51:34.080 Oh, far too many, yeah.

00:51:34.900 Yeah.

00:51:35.020 One is too many.

00:51:35.960 Yeah.

00:51:36.320 One is too many.

00:51:36.900 And then we'll start on the millionaires.

00:51:38.660 Yeah.

00:51:39.340 And then we'll start on the kulaks. 0.98

00:51:41.140 Because that's what communism is.

00:51:42.920 Farage was on every TV program going.

00:51:45.760 Day in.

00:51:46.160 Yeah, like, Farage, you've astroturfed Farage.

00:51:49.460 That's the problem.

00:51:52.280 I mean.

00:51:54.580 Day out telling the same lies.

00:51:57.360 Because where do you think these stories come from?

00:51:59.580 All this time they've been pointing at the small boats telling us they were the people to blame.

00:52:04.540 But the problem this whole time was the super rich and their yachts.

00:52:10.080 Are you mad?

00:52:12.120 Are you mad?

00:52:13.120 Yeah.

00:52:13.940 But also, especially some billionaires who are funding some NGOs are in the problem for him, let's say.

00:52:20.780 Oh, yeah, I suppose, though.

00:52:22.280 Yeah, those billionaires were all right, though.

00:52:24.080 Yeah, they're the anointed and the enlightened.

00:52:26.840 Yeah, the right type of billionaire.

00:52:28.900 Yeah.

00:52:29.120 Like, the problem is not that you're being invaded and replaced, whether legally or illegally.

00:52:36.920 That's not the problem.

00:52:38.500 It's that there's some billionaires who own yachts.

00:52:40.580 What a spaz. 1.00

00:52:43.760 Speaking of the music.

00:52:44.380 What a spastic. 1.00

00:52:45.140 That's mad.

00:52:46.000 Speaking of the music.

00:52:47.140 Maybe people are going to dunk on me, but I think it was absolutely hilarious when it came to the video Farage did with deportations.

00:52:56.100 And he had this dark, imposing music behind.

00:53:00.380 I just found it hilarious.

00:53:01.560 Yeah.

00:53:03.320 Set in a mood.

00:53:04.740 Yeah.

00:53:05.280 They got a whole team of media people to come up with this.

00:53:08.480 You can only imagine.

00:53:09.520 Dark tone, yeah.

00:53:10.480 We're going to have to have some very serious music over the top of this one.

00:53:13.280 People will say, what does this have to do with the Green Party?

00:53:17.920 Are you lot all about trees and nature?

00:53:20.260 Yeah.

00:53:20.380 Well, yes.

00:53:21.460 Defending nature is vital.

00:53:23.540 And this is about human nature.

00:53:26.380 The man who wanted to go on a beach and shoot people, he wasn't born like that.

00:53:30.940 The same system that is poisoning.

00:53:33.040 He probably was.

00:53:33.720 He probably was born with an innate in-group preference.

00:53:36.300 Probably was, yeah.

00:53:37.020 Our rivers is poisoning our minds.

00:53:40.020 All of us.

00:53:41.180 And we have to draw the line.

00:53:44.080 You've got the nerve to talk about poisoning minds, Zach.

00:53:47.760 You've got the nerve to talk about it.

00:53:48.860 Sorry, go on.

00:53:49.860 No, no, please.

00:53:51.020 We have to change the system.

00:53:53.020 Not just so we can survive, but so we can all thrive.

00:53:57.000 That's the Green Party I want to lead. 0.99

00:53:59.020 Oh, shut up. 1.00

00:54:00.020 Shut up. 1.00

00:54:00.340 This kind of alarmism is incredibly dangerous, polarising, and it's leading to actual harm in some cases. 0.99

00:54:08.360 Yeah, of course.

00:54:10.080 It's leading to the... 0.98

00:54:10.980 Ridiculous. 0.96

00:54:11.520 It's leading to the destruction of our economy and the very fabric of our society. 0.98

00:54:17.340 Yeah.

00:54:17.800 So, anyway, earlier on I mentioned that not just communism, but also Islamism.

00:54:23.620 Some people might think, oh, that's a bit alarmist, Beau.

00:54:26.020 That's a bit of a far-right fantasist thing to say.

00:54:28.560 What's the Green Party got to do with Islamism, of all things?

00:54:32.800 Surely there's no sort of unholy alliance between, like, Islam, radical Islam, and the Green Party that cares about sort of clean rivers and clean oceans.

00:54:44.560 Oh, well, let's just hear from Mothin Ali, a Green Party councillor.

00:54:52.480 If anyone...

00:54:53.580 This is truly a green...

00:54:54.920 A duly elected Green Party councillor.

00:54:57.220 You might think he'd talk about bins and recycling stuff, but no.

00:55:01.060 We will not be silent.

00:55:04.600 We will raise the voice of Gaza.

00:55:06.600 We will raise the voice of Palestine.

00:55:08.820 Allahu Akbar.

00:55:10.020 Allahu Akbar.

00:55:11.520 Allahu Akbar.

00:55:12.840 Allahu Akbar.

00:55:15.520 So, that's the Green Party.

00:55:17.080 Average Green Voter.

00:55:18.840 Yeah.

00:55:19.140 That's the Green Party.

00:55:20.880 Yeah.

00:55:22.060 Incredible.

00:55:22.900 Sort of incredible.

00:55:24.560 But luckily, luckily they don't actually have any massive support.

00:55:30.840 I mean, one thing that indicates that was this quite interesting article, which talks about essentially name recognition.

00:55:39.180 Like, do you know the leaders of the parties?

00:55:42.640 Right?

00:55:43.520 And so, you can well imagine that the Prime Minister, people know.

00:55:48.040 NIAGE people know. 1.00

00:55:49.140 It's been around forever.

00:55:51.160 And, you know, the Brexit thing and going on, I'm a celebrity.

00:55:54.940 People know.

00:55:55.660 Again, the leader of the opposition, people know.

00:55:58.680 Most people don't know Ed Davey.

00:56:02.780 Nobody knows the leader...

00:56:04.840 Well, not nobody.

00:56:05.900 Few people know the leader of the Greens, the current one, Carla Denya.

00:56:10.940 I mean, even people in their own party.

00:56:13.240 Even people in their own party don't really know.

00:56:17.200 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:56:18.040 Yeah, it's because it's all just virtue signaling.

00:56:21.880 Yeah, yeah.

00:56:23.060 It's a luxury belief, isn't it?

00:56:25.320 It's a luxury thing. 0.97

00:56:27.480 And, well, we're just moving away from that world where anyone can afford sort of a bullshit luxury view. 0.98

00:56:34.320 Particularly if, in fact, it's clearly a smokescreen for communism and Islamism. 0.99

00:56:39.880 Yeah, I mean, they talk about, you know, human nature and human nature and stuff.

00:56:44.280 And I think, ultimately, it's always about human nature because the nature is indestructible.

00:56:50.640 It may, if, you know, if the planet changes, it could be the ecosystem that sustains human life that could be theoretically destroyed.

00:57:00.880 So, again, it's about people.

00:57:02.260 So, at the end of the day, what I find interesting and a bit worrying is that lots of people who are supporting, you know, these movements, they very frequently shut their minds.

00:57:16.160 Sometimes stop reading about society and they just say, right, I want to focus on, you know, trees and rivers.

00:57:23.760 And I love nature, by the way.

00:57:26.180 But I'm just saying that very often when I encounter people who have a green mindset, let's say, and a green party rhetoric,

00:57:35.740 I try to see whether they actually care about people, flesh and blood human beings, more than they do about virtue signaling.

00:57:46.380 And they're rare.

00:57:48.060 Yeah.

00:57:48.400 Those people are genuinely rare.

00:57:51.540 Yeah.

00:57:52.000 I'll say, if you are one of those people, like a real environmentalist, don't vote for the Green Party because that's not what they're about.

00:58:01.400 Yeah.

00:58:01.540 They've been subverted and perverted a long time ago now.

00:58:05.680 You're not going to get, you're not going to get policies that actually benefit the best interests of, like, the British countryside.

00:58:13.860 You won't get that from them.

00:58:15.080 It's not really what they're about.

00:58:16.600 So, then finally, there's this really in-depth article that I was going to read loads of, but there's no point now.

00:58:22.880 I dunked on them hard enough.

00:58:24.560 Yeah.

00:58:24.740 I'll leave the segment there.

00:58:26.400 Is he trying to rage bait?

00:58:27.960 Yeah, well, okay, just to quickly say then, the article is, looks at the debate within the Green Party of whether they should sort of appeal to normies or whether they should appeal to hardline green stroke commie activists.

00:58:44.940 And that guy, Zach Polanski, wants to appeal to hardline green activists, like, whip up anger.

00:58:50.740 And a lot of the existing, like, the three, four existing green MPs are like, no, no, we tried that for decades.

00:58:57.220 It didn't really get us anywhere.

00:58:58.580 We need to be, we need to be reasonable and appeal to normies.

00:59:03.080 So, which way, Green Party, which way?

00:59:07.380 They're constant doomers.

00:59:08.420 They constantly predict the end of the globe, you know, every day.

00:59:13.080 And at some point, it's like, you stop listening to them.

00:59:18.400 Right.

00:59:18.920 So, Bass Tape says, for five pounds, thank you very much.

00:59:22.220 My name is Stelios.

00:59:23.380 I eat butts for breakfast.

00:59:26.460 Happy Friday, everyone.

00:59:27.700 Jay for five dollars says, if things don't work out in the U.S., Europe should open up quick immigration opportunities to Americans with European ancestry.

00:59:42.340 Brother Doom for five dollars says, to both points, I often are, they often are eco-fascists, like Green Party members use the watermelon emojis.

00:59:55.940 Green on the inside, red on the outside.

01:00:00.460 Pa for two and a half euros for Steli.

01:00:06.820 Best place for a holiday in Greece.

01:00:08.820 It really depends.

01:00:09.880 If you want to go for swimming, go to the islands.

01:00:13.160 Right.

01:00:13.800 I forgot the message.

01:00:15.480 Again, A for a hundred Swedish Coronas.

01:00:18.700 I forgot the message.

01:00:20.320 Laughing emoji.

01:00:21.400 Here goes.

01:00:23.080 If I could deport only the man, so be it.

01:00:25.340 Ninety-eight percent of the problem's gone.

01:00:29.440 Reverend, could we scroll up, please?

01:00:32.280 Yes.

01:00:32.680 Reverend N, again, for 50 Swedish Coronas.

01:00:36.480 We have many Swedish Coronas coming in.

01:00:38.920 Thank you very much.

01:00:39.820 I'll have to look at the exchange rate.

01:00:41.020 I don't know if 50 or 100 Swedish Coronas is like eight pence, or whether it's like 90 pounds.

01:00:46.780 I don't.

01:00:48.720 Okay.

01:00:49.460 All right.

01:00:49.940 Right.

01:00:50.160 Bo, sorry it is off topic, but what is the name of your new YouTube channel you mentioned

01:00:56.780 the other day?

01:00:57.660 Not History, but I'm already subbed to that.

01:01:00.320 All right.

01:01:00.560 Yeah.

01:01:00.740 The State of Politics.

01:01:02.520 It's quite new.

01:01:03.400 It's very new.

01:01:03.900 We're trying to get it off the ground.

01:01:04.780 We've only got a few thousand subs there. 1.00

01:01:06.340 Me and Nate off of Mr. H Reviews.

01:01:09.560 Yeah.

01:01:09.980 The State of Politics.

01:01:11.040 Please do consider going on YouTube, typing in, searching The State of Politics and subbing

01:01:16.180 to that.

01:01:16.540 If you want more of my takes and Mr. H, do that.

01:01:20.080 Yes, please.

01:01:20.680 Thank you.

01:01:21.740 Right.

01:01:23.480 And again, from OHP UK for $1.

01:01:28.540 Thank you very much.

01:01:29.440 I don't blame the boats like that dude on the beach says.

01:01:32.800 I blame the invaders on those boats.

01:01:35.240 I blame the desert problems they bring along. 1.00

01:01:39.020 I blame the atrocities they commit once here, et cetera, et cetera. 0.50

01:01:42.700 Right.

01:01:43.020 Yeah.

01:01:44.960 Right.

01:01:45.700 So, you see, you talk to me about communists and kulaks. 1.00

01:01:53.360 And I think basically we have a huge problem with communists.

01:01:57.880 With what?

01:01:58.140 Huge problem.

01:01:59.500 Yeah, and socialists and other people who are masquerading as whatever they are, but they're

01:02:05.700 really communists.

01:02:06.840 Right.

01:02:07.000 The sheep, no, the wolf under the sheep's skin.

01:02:11.460 Yeah, like Fabians. 1.00

01:02:12.480 Yeah, Fabians. 0.98

01:02:13.180 Yeah, they're full-blown, insane, almost Pol Pot, and they pretend they're just social 0.97

01:02:19.960 democrats.

01:02:20.680 So, you know, there was the British invasion of the US in the 60s with music.

01:02:28.820 Right.

01:02:29.040 That was a good invasion.

01:02:30.020 All right.

01:02:30.420 Right?

01:02:30.600 Yeah.

01:02:30.900 The Beatles.

01:02:31.380 But now there's a Fabian intrusion of the US. 0.98

01:02:39.520 It's not by the UK, right?

01:02:41.060 No, I was just being a bit dramatic.

01:02:42.980 But there is something Fabian about the US.

01:02:45.920 And they have people like Zoran Mamdani who come out and they advocate for policies that

01:02:51.800 I just can't understand how people in the US are for.

01:02:57.440 But apparently some are.

01:02:58.800 And that shows a lot about how the democrat propaganda has worked and how the leftist

01:03:03.860 indoctrination within academia has worked since the 60s.

01:03:07.560 And we are going to talk to you about a democratic socialist today that can't bench, who can't

01:03:14.940 bench, but also...

01:03:16.680 Bench press.

01:03:17.180 Yeah.

01:03:17.600 Bench press.

01:03:18.260 Okay.

01:03:18.700 He can't lift even 135 pounds, which is around 60 kilos.

01:03:24.720 That's not that much.

01:03:25.940 Yeah, but he should be able to, but he doesn't because he's too high and mighty for it.

01:03:30.720 Like a genuine socialist aristocrat is going to get the proletarians do it and say that

01:03:37.120 he does it for their own good because he knows their own good better than they do.

01:03:41.100 Right.

01:03:41.400 So let's see that the democrats are very dissatisfied with the US.

01:03:46.680 They're very dissatisfied.

01:03:48.160 And they say that right now there are zero democrats who are satisfied with the way things

01:03:55.980 are going in the US at this time.

01:03:59.120 Zero.

01:03:59.700 Zero.

01:04:01.720 It's because they've got the bad orange man in the oval. 0.85

01:04:05.220 So they're just, whatever he does or says, whatever it is, they're not happy with it.

01:04:09.480 Okay.

01:04:09.520 I mean, that's a bit, that's simultaneously tragic and a bit farcical.

01:04:14.440 Yeah.

01:04:14.940 Because, right, okay, I can understand for election purposes if they rump up a bit the

01:04:20.720 tram derangement syndrome, you know, for the rhetoric for the elections.

01:04:26.500 But the very fact that right now zero democrats seem to be satisfied with the way things are

01:04:33.620 going in the US, just zero.

01:04:35.460 What are the odds?

01:04:36.920 Yeah.

01:04:37.420 What are the odds?

01:04:38.540 Yeah.

01:04:38.960 Right.

01:04:39.260 So in a real poll, you wouldn't really ever see zero like that, would you?

01:04:43.720 Yeah, but even if it were true, I know, even if, let's assume it's true.

01:04:48.800 Sure.

01:04:49.040 Okay.

01:04:49.220 It shows a lot about how the Trump derangement syndrome wasn't just, you know, pragmatic

01:04:57.100 socialist rhetoric, no, pragmatic rhetoric just for the elections.

01:05:02.220 They have actually been brainwashed to such an extent that they can never see whether Trump

01:05:09.200 does anything good or not.

01:05:10.760 And I think that this is, it's very unlikely to view an administration and say that absolutely

01:05:19.300 nothing they did was good.

01:05:21.440 I can get it, totally say that, yeah, Biden was mostly awful.

01:05:25.880 Yeah.

01:05:26.220 But just looking at an administration and saying there's zero good at it, just from a serious

01:05:32.680 perspective, it's a bit, you know, it's too ideological.

01:05:35.760 No, the mainstream media did their job well.

01:05:38.440 Yeah.

01:05:38.800 Their job was to create division and paint Trump as just sort of purely evil.

01:05:45.100 Yeah.

01:05:45.800 But then they did a good job.

01:05:47.020 Well done, MSNBC.

01:05:48.820 Yeah.

01:05:49.020 Yeah.

01:05:49.160 Well done, CNN.

01:05:50.720 You did your job well.

01:05:52.040 So it seems to me that they are paving the way for many decades now.

01:05:56.440 They are paving the way for a more radical and more leftist agenda, which right now is

01:06:01.700 being upheld and promoted by politicians such as Zoran Mamdani, the New York City mayor

01:06:11.880 hopeful.

01:06:12.800 He hasn't been elected yet, but he seems to be about to win it.

01:06:18.540 Did he win?

01:06:18.980 He's got the nomination.

01:06:20.220 He's got the nomination.

01:06:21.360 Okay.

01:06:21.720 And he seems like he's leading the polls.

01:06:24.480 Right.

01:06:25.000 So we are going to just quickly say, and we've done a segment on this before, I think.

01:06:29.360 Well, definitely did.

01:06:30.420 I do find it hard to believe or not hard to believe.

01:06:32.880 I understand how democratic voting New York City is, but still the number of people in that

01:06:39.500 city, which must know, I mean, Jewish people for a start, just for a start, big, massive 1.00

01:06:46.240 Jewish population in New York City.

01:06:47.480 They must know that this guy is not going to be acting in their interests.

01:06:51.040 No, he was actually, I think they would especially see him as hostile because he was leading the

01:06:58.380 chants that there were pro-Palestine in several cases.

01:07:02.000 And not just the Jews. 0.74

01:07:03.580 I don't want to just concentrate on them.

01:07:04.940 And loads of different demographics of people in New York City must know that this guy is

01:07:10.100 going to ruin their city.

01:07:13.900 And yet they're still going to vote him in.

01:07:16.820 I mean, I really hope not because his policies are really bad.

01:07:21.000 I mean, I can't throw too many stones in a glass house because we've got Sadiq Khan as

01:07:24.740 mayor of London.

01:07:25.340 So I get how it happens.

01:07:26.980 I do understand how it happens.

01:07:28.140 I just, I just hope he doesn't win, but it looks like he's going to.

01:07:31.920 He has very disastrous policies.

01:07:33.860 And in some cases they're really hilarious.

01:07:35.680 But before we show you Mamdani's policies and also the hilarious video where he

01:07:40.100 can't bench press, we have Chronicles, Luca Johnson's new series, and we have definitely

01:07:47.600 check out Thornton Wilder's Our Town episode he did.

01:07:51.560 This is the 12th one.

01:07:53.520 It's a wonderful series.

01:07:55.040 Definitely check it out.

01:07:56.540 And you can subscribe to our website for as little as £5 a month and get access to all

01:08:03.180 our premium content and check out really great literature review and commentary that

01:08:09.940 Luca does.

01:08:10.980 I did a good one with him about War of the Worlds.

01:08:13.620 Yes.

01:08:14.200 Deep dive, critical reading of that.

01:08:18.580 So we have here Zoran Mamdani, calling himself a democratic socialist.

01:08:23.820 So can you imagine in the US, they basically led the Cold War against communism.

01:08:29.600 And we have someone saying there proudly, I'm a democratic socialist, and he is about to

01:08:36.160 become mayor of New York.

01:08:38.640 Crazy, isn't it?

01:08:39.560 Right.

01:08:39.820 So he is 33 years old.

01:08:42.720 And we're going to come back to this article.

01:08:46.560 Pardon me.

01:08:47.360 Sorry.

01:08:48.040 We're going to come back to this article and see what he means by democratic socialism.

01:08:52.720 It's basically a fraud, the way I see it.

01:08:57.640 And we are going to show you some really hilarious videos before.

01:09:02.680 Look at him.

01:09:03.520 He can't literally do a rap without help.

01:09:07.260 How much is on there?

01:09:09.320 It doesn't look like there's a great deal.

01:09:11.280 It doesn't look like a great deal of weight.

01:09:13.360 This is how you move up in the polls.

01:09:14.900 I'll turn the music off because I think they have a song and I don't want us to get.

01:09:23.320 If you're a politician on campaign and you're going to do something like this,

01:09:29.460 like make sure you can do it.

01:09:32.500 Yeah.

01:09:34.220 It's just...

01:09:35.320 He can't do it by himself.

01:09:38.460 He has this guy.

01:09:39.140 His form is terrible.

01:09:41.020 He's one foot off the ground.

01:09:43.100 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:09:43.660 Hands not in the right place.

01:09:44.860 It looks like he's never done a bench press in his life.

01:09:47.000 That's what that looked like.

01:09:47.640 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:09:48.060 That's what that looked like.

01:09:49.100 But the people did it for him.

01:09:51.720 Right.

01:09:52.140 That's the issue.

01:09:52.860 Right.

01:09:53.840 Even the Hindustan times are making fun of him.

01:09:57.580 Weak little man, Zoran Mamdani, trolled for failing at bench press at Men's Day in Brooklyn.

01:10:03.420 And this has, you know, it has led to people trolling him.

01:10:07.740 It's fun.

01:10:08.420 I think ultimately the worst thing about him is his policies.

01:10:12.740 And because...

01:10:13.780 Sorry, just a quick slide.

01:10:14.680 It is incidental whether he can do a heavy bench press or not.

01:10:17.920 Yes.

01:10:18.400 What really matters is his worldview and his policies.

01:10:21.820 But, yeah.

01:10:22.360 But I like how, you know, in a very meme-y way, this led to several people saying weak men create bad times.

01:10:30.040 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:10:30.800 And I think that this is absolutely correct.

01:10:32.820 And it is correct for him, not necessarily because he can't bench press, but because of his policies. 0.97

01:10:39.220 Because it's all weak, pathetic sentimentalism. 0.95

01:10:42.600 And, you know, it's the kind of zero foresight kind of rhetoric and policy. 0.97

01:10:51.140 It's like, you know, hey, I'm a socialist planner.

01:10:54.340 I just call myself democratic socialist and therefore I don't have any problem attached to me.

01:10:59.340 I don't have to, you know, contend with any strong objection against socialism.

01:11:06.140 And I'm going to devise this plan and it's not going to backfire and it's not going to have unintended consequences. 0.92

01:11:13.680 It's just silly.

01:11:15.300 Do we know, has he got any sort of academic background? 0.68

01:11:19.400 I don't think he has.

01:11:20.700 I don't think he has.

01:11:21.600 But he also has a background in hip-hop.

01:11:25.420 Oh, well.

01:11:25.940 This is part of his persona, that he doesn't feel embarrassed if he isn't seen as a sort of, you know, traditional man.

01:11:37.940 I'll play this.

01:11:38.900 I won't have music again because I don't want us to get sued.

01:11:41.420 But just look at him on the left.

01:11:43.100 This is him.

01:11:44.120 Young Cardamom and Hab Number One Spice.

01:11:46.500 That's him.

01:11:47.420 Look, look at this.

01:11:48.680 Are they doing a rap?

01:11:49.700 Yeah, they're doing a rap.

01:11:50.720 He was Young Cardamom.

01:11:52.280 Just a few seconds of it at least.

01:11:54.220 Yeah, all of you, check out Young Cardamom, Zoran Mamdani.

01:11:58.280 It's ultra cringe.

01:12:00.060 Yuck.

01:12:00.620 I watched it, so you have to.

01:12:02.860 Definitely go and watch it.

01:12:04.780 It looks super cringe.

01:12:06.520 It is super cringe.

01:12:07.720 And let me show you also some ultra cringe parts here.

01:12:12.460 Where are they?

01:12:14.900 Yeah, it's just...

01:12:16.740 So this guy is going to become mayor of New York.

01:12:19.960 This guy, yeah.

01:12:21.040 And he is basically a socialist.

01:12:24.980 He calls himself a democratic socialist.

01:12:27.380 But democratic socialism basically is managed democracy, which means it's not a democracy.

01:12:32.100 It's some people saying we are the socialist board of directors.

01:12:36.600 And we know and we are just going to pretend that people are voting for us.

01:12:40.480 We're going to say that our enemies are anti-democracy.

01:12:44.340 As the Washington Post article said, democracy dies in darkness.

01:12:49.860 But somehow, democratic socialism is in darkness.

01:12:54.120 Right.

01:12:54.800 Is he Muslim as well, isn't he?

01:12:57.120 I think so, yeah.

01:12:58.280 I think so.

01:12:58.940 Okay.

01:12:59.940 So he's a commie Muslim that does rapping with sub-Saharan Africans. 1.00

01:13:05.920 Yeah, and he's also pro-woke.

01:13:07.720 Pro-woke.

01:13:08.700 It's like everything and nothing at the same time.

01:13:11.060 Yeah, right.

01:13:11.480 That's sort of what I was thinking.

01:13:12.540 Traditional fraud, politician. 0.96

01:13:14.600 Just everything that isn't white. 0.89

01:13:17.200 Anything and everything which isn't...

01:13:19.520 Yeah.

01:13:20.320 I mean, honestly, I just can't understand how he tries to appeal simultaneously to the very Muslim vote 1.00

01:13:28.560 and also the very woke vote because it's just some things are absolutely imbalanced, let's say.

01:13:38.120 Right.

01:13:38.340 In the Democratic Convention, they had gender-neutral praying rooms for Muslims.

01:13:44.100 I mean, I can't think of traditional Muslims approving this. 0.86

01:13:50.020 I was going to say, that's not allowed, is it?

01:13:51.720 No, it's not.

01:13:52.580 Like in a mosque. 0.99

01:13:53.240 But in the Democrat mind, this is a good idea.

01:13:56.320 Somehow, it's an inclusive thing.

01:13:58.560 It would be funny if it wasn't so tragic and insane.

01:14:06.540 But it gets worse.

01:14:08.560 And actually, I've kept the good bits for now.

01:14:11.100 All right.

01:14:11.620 So if your attention span isn't just video clip, Taylor Swift video clip, congratulations.

01:14:20.580 I kept the best for you because you're the special ones.

01:14:24.140 Right.

01:14:24.840 So we have here the policies that he hasn't rejected.

01:14:29.720 DI's schooling agenda, universal rent control, decriminalization of all drugs, remove cubs from schools.

01:14:36.340 He has refused to respond to all these.

01:14:39.360 And let me say here, he's talking about communism.

01:14:45.440 Let us listen to him.

01:14:46.720 What the purpose is about this entire project, it's not simply to raise class consciousness, but to win socialism.

01:14:54.720 And obviously, raising class consciousness is a critical part of that.

01:14:56.960 But making sure that we have candidates that both understand that and are willing to put that forward at every which moment that they have, at every which opportunity that they are given.

01:15:06.420 We have to continue to elect more socialists, and we have to ensure that we are unapologetic about our socialism.

01:15:15.680 There are also other issues that we firmly believe in, whether it's BDS, right, or whether it's the end goal of seizing the means of production, where we do not have the same level of support at this very moment.

01:15:28.760 And what I want to say is that it is critical, the way that we organize, the way that we set up our, you know, set up our work and our priorities, that we do not leave any one issue for the other, that we do not meet a moment and only look at what people are ready for.

01:15:49.140 This man is about to become mayor of New York.

01:15:53.560 Can I just say, that's genuinely scary.

01:15:55.800 When he said, seizing the means of production, that's terrifying.

01:16:01.440 That should be a massive red flag. 0.87

01:16:03.440 For anyone who doesn't know, that is a dog whistle for real communism.

01:16:10.000 Yeah, it's not even a dog whistle.

01:16:11.840 He literally said it.

01:16:13.560 He literally said it at the moment.

01:16:15.660 That's Marxist-Leninist stuff.

01:16:17.660 Yeah.

01:16:18.140 That's Maoist stuff.

01:16:19.820 Yeah.

01:16:20.240 That's the real deal communism.

01:16:22.660 Seizing the means of production.

01:16:25.420 Yeah.

01:16:25.800 Sorry, it's not, it's not 1870s Germany.

01:16:29.900 Yeah.

01:16:30.360 This is mad.

01:16:31.080 That's madness.

01:16:32.160 Yeah.

01:16:32.380 Is it the first time you, you...

01:16:33.900 I've never seen this clip.

01:16:35.240 I don't know a great deal about him.

01:16:36.520 I know a bit about him.

01:16:37.180 Read a couple of articles here or there.

01:16:38.660 A couple of videos here or there.

01:16:39.860 Certainly haven't done any sort of deep dive on the man.

01:16:42.420 Seizing the means of production.

01:16:44.440 You have your mind.

01:16:45.700 So, raise class consciousness.

01:16:47.740 Yeah.

01:16:48.120 Just...

01:16:48.420 Another one.

01:16:49.480 Yeah.

01:16:51.380 Right.

01:16:52.180 Let's listen to what he says here.

01:16:53.780 This is a dangerous, this is a dangerous person.

01:16:55.480 Also, he said unapologetic about socialism.

01:16:58.160 I mean, there's no...

01:16:58.800 No, you have to...

01:16:59.920 You just can't support socialism.

01:17:02.480 It's a doctrine that's responsible for millions of deaths, famine.

01:17:06.980 It's basically...

01:17:08.800 It's a disaster.

01:17:10.260 You can't say that...

01:17:11.520 You can't say you're unapologetic about it.

01:17:13.580 A 33-year-old Muslim, actual Marxist-Leninist type communist.

01:17:19.960 Yeah.

01:17:20.760 It's like a child playing with matches, isn't it?

01:17:23.340 Yeah.

01:17:23.500 Who says at the...

01:17:26.180 We are going to do it, but at the moment we need to...

01:17:29.160 You know, so it's...

01:17:29.940 The goal is communism or a form of Islamo-communism.

01:17:34.120 There's a question there.

01:17:35.620 What's that going to be?

01:17:36.900 I can see you're not a fan. 0.95

01:17:38.680 Islamo-communism makes me want to puke. 1.00

01:17:40.640 Any kind of this. 0.98

01:17:44.480 Something like that is the goal.

01:17:46.200 All the other bit is tactics.

01:17:47.740 So all of you guys watching in New York, this is a tactic.

01:17:52.900 You shouldn't allow this man to become mayor.

01:17:55.560 Let's look at what he says here.

01:17:58.140 My platform is that every single person should have housing.

01:18:01.440 And I think faced with these two options,

01:18:04.400 the system has hundreds of thousands of people unhoused, right?

01:18:08.320 For what?

01:18:09.420 And if there was any system that could guarantee each person housing,

01:18:16.420 whether you call it the abolition of private property

01:18:18.760 or you call it, you know, just a statewide housing guarantee,

01:18:22.200 it is preferable to what is going on right now.

01:18:25.500 And I think that people try and play like gotcha games

01:18:29.080 about these kinds of things.

01:18:30.100 And it's like, look, I care more about whether somebody has a home.

01:18:35.440 The abolition of private property, did you just say?

01:18:38.560 Yeah. 0.96

01:18:38.700 You dirty wrong-un. 1.00

01:18:41.340 The abolition of private property. 0.86

01:18:44.160 Yeah.

01:18:44.540 So he, what is interesting here, he tries to play the bleeding heart card.

01:18:49.220 He says, we have lots of unhoused people. 0.99

01:18:52.660 You know, they're in a really bad place, which, right.

01:18:57.260 Right, yes, I don't like this either, obviously.

01:19:01.340 But I think, you know, he doesn't play the sort of, you know,

01:19:06.200 welfarist, pragmatist card.

01:19:08.140 He chooses to frame his opposition to it as, well, you could call it abolition of private property.

01:19:16.660 Yeah, so there are lots of red flags, lots of red alerts going off at the moment.

01:19:25.980 Homeless people exist. 0.98

01:19:27.600 Yeah.

01:19:28.080 Therefore, the abolition of private property.

01:19:31.180 But he also, Bo, I know.

01:19:32.600 I mean, I have the impression you would love communes.

01:19:36.640 You would love hippie communes.

01:19:38.420 Yeah.

01:19:39.060 Because why not?

01:19:42.120 Let's listen to what he has to say.

01:19:44.080 To go further, toward the Vienna model, we'll have to go beyond the market.

01:19:48.680 We can establish community land trusts to gradually buy up housing on the private market

01:19:52.360 and convert it to community ownership.

01:19:54.520 We can give tenants a right of first refusal to buy out their landlords when buildings go up for sale.

01:19:59.000 And we can fully commit to a new era of social housing,

01:20:02.460 ending subsidies for luxury housing development

01:20:04.500 and using our wealth to build beautiful, high-quality social housing projects

01:20:08.500 that offer good homes and strong communities to everyone.

01:20:11.740 We won't decommodify housing overnight.

01:20:14.860 But we know what we have to do.

01:20:16.420 And we have history to guide us.

01:20:18.260 Yeah, basically check out the ugly, brutalist houses of the USSR 0.97

01:20:23.800 and think again, basically. 0.99

01:20:27.000 Look at this grinning buffoon. 0.99

01:20:29.740 Yeah, I'm looking at his eyes. 0.99

01:20:32.940 There's something wrong there.

01:20:34.320 Looks like he's just woken up or he's high or something.

01:20:37.440 Looks like a communist. 0.96

01:20:38.560 This is a piggy-eyed communist.

01:20:42.580 Yeah, this is someone, this is a child LARPing.

01:20:46.500 Yeah.

01:20:47.320 I don't think he knows, I'm not sure if he knows what he's really talking about.

01:20:52.960 It doesn't feel like he does.

01:20:54.620 I feel like he's someone that's learned certain phrases and he's parroting them back out.

01:21:00.620 So maybe he doesn't know that there was famine in the Soviet Union in the beginning

01:21:07.260 and also in Mao's China.

01:21:09.340 He doesn't know that there was famine.

01:21:11.140 And he is actually proposing city-owned grocery stores.

01:21:16.420 Let's just listen to what he says here.

01:21:18.300 Grocery prices are out of control.

01:21:20.160 The cost of eggs and milk has skyrocketed.

01:21:22.800 Some stores are even using dynamic pricing, jacking up the cost over the course of a day

01:21:27.060 depending on what they can get away with.

01:21:28.620 It doesn't need to be this way.

01:21:30.080 I'm Zahran Mamdani and as mayor, I will create a network of city-owned grocery stores.

01:21:34.540 It's like a public option for produce.

01:21:36.440 We will redirect city funds from corporate supermarkets to city-owned grocery stores

01:21:41.860 whose mission is lower prices, not price gouging.

01:21:45.500 These stores will operate without a profit motive or having to pay property taxes or rent

01:21:49.900 and will pass on those savings to you.

01:21:53.660 Yeah, right. 1.00

01:21:55.020 That's the face of a fucking madman. 1.00

01:21:57.580 So a command economy, that never works. 1.00

01:22:01.720 You're not allowed.

01:22:02.800 Yeah, but price fixing, that never, ever, ever works.

01:22:05.380 Yes, working outside of the market, it was doomed to failure.

01:22:09.940 What was the other thing he said where we both went?

01:22:12.240 The profit motive.

01:22:13.280 Yeah, getting rid of the profit motive.

01:22:14.920 That leads directly to failure every single time.

01:22:18.560 Every single time.

01:22:19.700 Yeah.

01:22:20.400 And when it leads to failure, it leads also to famine.

01:22:23.000 It leads to violence.

01:22:24.200 It leads to, you know, general social disorder.

01:22:26.960 Complete collapse.

01:22:27.860 Yeah.

01:22:28.240 And famine, ultimately.

01:22:30.340 But he has a solution for social disorder.

01:22:35.140 Okay.

01:22:35.500 He wants to end all misdemeanor charges.

01:22:39.600 Right.

01:22:41.180 Yeah.

01:22:41.860 This sounds like a package for just tanking New York City.

01:22:44.820 Yeah.

01:22:45.080 As fast as possible.

01:22:46.320 Yeah.

01:22:46.560 There's like, how can we turn it into Gotham City?

01:22:48.980 Yeah.

01:22:49.380 That's how it is.

01:22:50.160 As quickly as possible.

01:22:51.180 Yeah.

01:22:51.440 As efficiently and as quickly as possible.

01:22:53.080 Yeah.

01:22:53.440 New York City has been targeted for termination.

01:22:56.580 Yeah.

01:22:57.160 Something like that.

01:22:57.840 Yeah.

01:22:58.620 Right.

01:22:58.960 We have here, I don't think that we should have billionaires.

01:23:01.740 It's just that, again, we said in the last segment, the politics of jealousy and envy

01:23:09.320 and resentment.

01:23:10.120 Yeah.

01:23:10.800 I want to be a billionaire.

01:23:11.980 What's your problem, Zora and Mamdani?

01:23:15.540 Probably I won't be.

01:23:16.380 The thing is, the super rich nearly always generate wealth and jobs and stuff.

01:23:22.180 Yeah.

01:23:22.480 It's not like, right, all the fortune one has.

01:23:27.880 It's not like all of it is ready to be liquidated for cash.

01:23:32.500 To cash.

01:23:33.340 Yeah.

01:23:33.580 Of course.

01:23:34.500 It's just its assets, producing wealth, sustaining, you know, people in jobs.

01:23:41.520 Commies always think that billionaires are Scrooge McDuck with a giant room full of gold bullion

01:23:47.000 and gems and that it's a zero-sum game and there's some poor person out there that's

01:23:52.980 starving to death because of that giant silo of gold that the billionaire's got. 0.93

01:23:57.600 It's just the most childish nonsense. 0.68

01:23:59.600 Yeah, and I'll end the segment now by saying the following, that he speaks about seizing

01:24:07.240 the means of production, about disrespecting the profit motive, about impunity, basically.

01:24:16.000 He talks about raising class consciousness.

01:24:19.020 He talks about communal spaces, which you have to be a communist to say this.

01:24:24.880 Working outside the market.

01:24:26.140 Didn't he say something like that?

01:24:26.940 Yeah.

01:24:27.180 I mean, you have to be a communist.

01:24:29.120 But Brian Krasenstein says Mamdani isn't a communist. 0.99

01:24:34.340 If you're tweeting this, it shows your ignorance. 0.99

01:24:38.020 Okay. 0.98

01:24:38.400 Sorry.

01:24:39.080 No.

01:24:39.820 He is a communist.

01:24:40.980 Yeah.

01:24:41.100 How about no, Briar?

01:24:43.160 Right.

01:24:43.800 Okay.

01:24:44.140 Let's go to the comments.

01:24:47.940 Aber for 200 Swedish Coronas.

01:24:51.480 Have some money.

01:24:52.640 Thank you.

01:24:53.200 Cheers.

01:24:53.700 Potato Radio for $5.

01:24:57.180 Thank you very much.

01:24:58.040 He's pushing city-run grocery stores, i.e. empty famine centers like Kansas City.

01:25:03.700 Soon, obesity will disappear.

01:25:06.520 Well, yeah, it might help the obesity problem.

01:25:09.420 Yeah, but you hear they say whether when you run out of money, you eat fast food.

01:25:13.220 So, it won't disappear.

01:25:15.660 That's the new leftist rhetoric.

01:25:17.160 That it's not a matter of personal responsibility.

01:25:19.940 It's a matter of what you eat.

01:25:21.500 Collective canteens work so well during the Great Link Forward.

01:25:25.960 Spend.

01:25:26.520 Everyone got fed if you had collective canteens.

01:25:29.200 Spend for five pounds.

01:25:31.320 All it takes is one mother and one son.

01:25:34.360 Yikes.

01:25:35.480 Potato Radio.

01:25:37.980 Let me read this.

01:25:44.320 If taking away guns, pointed knives is necessary to save lives.

01:25:49.840 Isn't free air conditioning and cheap electricity necessary as some people die from heat?

01:25:54.400 Again, it's the air conditioning thing.

01:25:56.340 That was five pounds for, excuse me, Samson, could we go?

01:26:01.820 Yeah.

01:26:02.300 Okay.

01:26:02.700 Right.

01:26:03.040 Okay.

01:26:03.320 Great.

01:26:04.160 Let's go.

01:26:05.320 O-P-H-U-K for one dollar.

01:26:07.320 Thank you.

01:26:08.100 It's May. 0.79

01:26:08.840 I'm Danny, you bigot.

01:26:11.020 Alex Adamson for two dollars.

01:26:13.280 Thank you very much.

01:26:14.140 I'll write this heading home from work.

01:26:17.800 I have beheld the first of hopefully many England flags soon to come.

01:26:22.840 For once, something happens in whole.

01:26:24.680 One pound, one dollar from Ryan Hinnigan.

01:26:29.380 Thank you very much.

01:26:30.060 I'm not entirely opposed to renters getting first bid when the property is up for sale,

01:26:34.520 but that's about the only non-retorted thing he's said.

01:26:37.700 New thought, add root for the, never thought, add root for the Cuomo mafia family.

01:26:44.680 Booker 505 for five dollars.

01:26:47.160 Thank you very much.

01:26:47.900 Follow the money behind this guy.

01:26:49.160 If Wall Street and New York banks are okay with him, it might be a scheme that New York

01:26:54.080 City properties exchange hands so that new owners show up to help people with rents.

01:26:59.420 Absolutely.

01:27:00.360 Absolutely.

01:27:01.600 And Jade Runner 2049 for five pounds.

01:27:06.660 Thank you very much.

01:27:07.460 Devon Tracy just released a Substack article exposing the Young Turks for directly inciting

01:27:13.640 the Baton Rouge massacre might make a good segment.

01:27:17.180 We'll watch it.

01:27:18.060 No, I might even, hopefully even, get him on.

01:27:20.820 Okay.

01:27:21.220 If anyone doesn't know, this person probably does know, I've done two, I've had Devon on

01:27:26.900 here twice.

01:27:27.880 Okay.

01:27:28.420 I consider him a friend.

01:27:29.640 Met him IRL.

01:27:30.500 I think he's a great guy.

01:27:33.540 Okay.

01:27:34.000 So, in fact, I've DM'd him.

01:27:36.300 Hopefully I'll get him on early next week.

01:27:38.760 Great.

01:27:39.100 We'll go through it in detail.

01:27:40.780 Great.

01:27:41.060 Let's go to the video comments now.

01:27:42.840 Greg Cooper.

01:27:44.160 Craig Cooper.

01:27:44.800 Sorry.

01:27:45.500 After this latest transgender shooter, I can assure you, not one of you on the Lotus 1.00

01:27:51.520 Eaters or anyone watching, or all of you combined, hate social media as much as I do, because

01:27:58.380 I know that if I'd grown up in the era of social media, that would have been me.

01:28:04.340 By the way, guys, your theme song has become quite iconic for you guys.

01:28:08.820 It just breathes Lotus Eaters. 0.99

01:28:11.240 I don't think live streaming on YouTube is worth giving that up.

01:28:15.860 Well, well, interesting.

01:28:17.160 Well, I'm glad that you're well and not didn't turn up becoming more worse.

01:28:26.140 We'll discuss this.

01:28:27.540 Right.

01:28:28.240 Thank you.

01:28:29.120 Do we have another video?

01:28:31.140 Guys, your theme song has actually become quite iconic.

01:28:36.540 Like, whenever I hear it, I just think Lotus Eaters.

01:28:39.380 It breathes. 1.00

01:28:42.340 Yes, Amogas is a sussy gay backer boy. 1.00

01:28:45.820 Big Chungus sends his throbbing love to you. 1.00

01:28:49.520 Rule, Big Chungus. 1.00

01:28:51.080 Big Chungus rules the waves. 0.92

01:28:53.560 Charles, you are the suss Chungus imposter. 1.00

01:28:56.620 I saw Boris Vent.

01:28:58.580 Keep being the girl boss you are. 1.00

01:29:01.420 Stay suss and don't choke on these nuts. 1.00

01:29:05.120 A winner winner, chicken dinner in Fortnite.

01:29:07.800 The sussy backer. 0.93

01:29:10.460 Are they real or are they AI?

01:29:12.620 Probably AI.

01:29:13.360 Is that real or AI?

01:29:14.300 Bye.

01:29:18.120 Okay.

01:29:18.780 But...

01:29:19.560 Has he got no self-esteem?

01:29:26.180 Okay.

01:29:26.360 Or no...

01:29:26.900 That's crazy.

01:29:27.780 Do we have another video comment or should I go to the comments from the subscribers?

01:29:35.600 Samson?

01:29:38.080 Do we have another video comment?

01:29:40.340 Right, okay.

01:29:42.000 So, Kevin Fox says, oddly though, even with a constant interference from the ECHR, we in

01:29:47.860 Britain are faced with.

01:29:49.380 Greece gets away with housing illegals in tents. 1.00

01:29:52.300 I don't think that's true, by the way.

01:29:54.240 Something the leftist lived hard, human rights lawyers in the UK will run crying to the ECHR

01:30:02.120 to prevent in the UK.

01:30:04.500 We have the same issue with structures and they go in and again it's more money paid and

01:30:10.100 then there's a fire, they go out.

01:30:11.620 Jimbo G.

01:30:14.100 And who exactly are these judges to rule that politicians should be allowed to gamble with

01:30:19.380 their safety, prosperity and dignity?

01:30:21.640 How can this ever be the case?

01:30:23.720 It's sickening just how much contempt the establishment has for its people.

01:30:29.060 Roman Observer says, it's never just about the laws by themselves.

01:30:32.500 It's always about the people interpreting and abusing the law.

01:30:36.260 Absolutely.

01:30:36.600 And Colin P. says, we don't like the results, so let's change the judges.

01:30:41.300 Wrong answer.

01:30:41.980 Try again.

01:30:42.760 How very EU.

01:30:45.480 Do you want me to read for your segment?

01:30:48.800 If you want, yeah.

01:30:49.480 Right.

01:30:49.840 Just a couple.

01:30:51.540 Okay.

01:30:51.900 Ed Miliband harnessing Enoch's spinning grave.

01:30:55.220 When I walk through my town center, I don't recognize it anymore.

01:30:58.460 I feel out of place and like I'm being pushed out of the very place I grew up.

01:31:03.900 The super rich are everywhere just loitering on benches and they completely outnumber the

01:31:09.940 locals now.

01:31:10.880 It's like they're taking business calls on speakerphone and leaving yachts everywhere

01:31:15.720 just to rub in the fact that there's nothing we can do about it.

01:31:19.080 I'm voting green.

01:31:20.780 That's trolling.

01:31:22.260 Yeah.

01:31:22.820 Right.

01:31:24.660 Alpha of the Betters says, hardcore environmentalism goes hand in hand with overreaching

01:31:29.700 managerialism because it relies on massive government regulation and overreach to function.

01:31:35.540 It also relies on the premise that business is basically immoral and will always do evil

01:31:41.000 unless held to the highest standards of the self-declared moralists.

01:31:46.380 Binary Surfer says, he's not wrong that the small boats are a fig leaf, but not for the

01:31:52.220 rich, for legal mass migration.

01:31:54.680 And it will soon be discarded.

01:31:57.560 And Northblood says, I guess it doesn't matter which end of the globe you're on. 0.99

01:32:02.100 Greens are just retarded water melons. 1.00

01:32:05.520 And let's go to Chad Koala says, turns out muscle mass can be distributed. 0.71

01:32:12.160 Each individual has to build it themselves.

01:32:15.100 This principle doesn't just apply to muscle.

01:32:18.620 Right.

01:32:19.760 Yeah.

01:32:20.380 You have to do it yourself.

01:32:21.600 Some things you just have to do it yourself.

01:32:23.560 So, Lord Inquisitor Hector X says, even his muscles require government help.

01:32:30.520 A's Arizona Desert Rat.

01:32:32.440 What's with a guy yelling, this is how you get ahead in the polls?

01:32:36.440 I know, maybe he tried to uplift him and boost his morale because you say this guy is a weakling.

01:32:42.800 Right.

01:32:43.580 Chance from Canada says, cool policies, bro.

01:32:46.600 But doesn't this neighbor eat with his hands?

01:32:49.140 He did it with his hands for one promo and then ate with a knife and fork for another promo.

01:32:57.080 And Lord Nerevar says, to be fair, labor can't really betray us.

01:33:02.900 They never promised us anything to begin with.

01:33:06.280 And honorable mentions, the Wigan survivalist, happy Friday, lads.

01:33:11.320 Please, could you do a lads hour reviewing film 300?

01:33:14.360 I want to see the Stelios in a toga. 1.00

01:33:16.360 So, I need to get a bit more in shape before that.

01:33:20.620 Right.

01:33:21.500 So, on that note, we came to the end of our podcast.

01:33:26.320 Beau, it was a pleasure today.

01:33:27.860 I really enjoyed it.
