The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters - The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters #1468

00:00:00.000 Hello, and welcome to the podcast of The Lotus Eaters, episode 1,468 for Thursday, the 23rd of July, 2026.

00:00:09.140 I'm your host, Luke, joined today by Carl and Firas.

00:00:11.960 Hello, hello.

00:00:12.740 And today we're going to be talking to you all about the Garden Party truly being on fire.

00:00:18.360 We're then going to be talking about Restore Britain's efforts to restore Manchester.

00:00:22.980 Quite a gargantuan task, but someone's got to do it.

00:00:26.420 And then we're going to be talking about

00:00:27.960 how you are simply born into debt. 0.96

00:00:30.320 So a very white-pilling segment, no doubt. 1.00

00:00:33.380 I hope so. 1.00

00:00:34.280 Well, it's actually good news

00:00:36.980 because it's not necessarily...

00:00:38.900 I mean, you are born into financial debt as well.

00:00:40.660 Yeah.

00:00:41.060 But it's not necessarily that what we're talking about.

00:00:43.460 All right, great.

00:00:44.220 Well, it will not be about usury.

00:00:46.180 Okay.

00:00:46.760 It will not be about usury.

00:00:47.660 Not this time.

00:00:48.220 Fair enough.

00:00:49.000 Something that is about usury, however,

00:00:50.960 is my recent episode of Chronicles,

00:00:53.720 ladies and gentlemen.

00:00:54.600 I've been covering one of Shakespeare's lesser-performed tragedies,

00:00:58.720 Timing of Athens, Shakespeare taking inspiration from Plutarch's lives as inspiration.

00:01:04.420 And even though it is a little undeveloped in places,

00:01:08.320 and there's plenty of reason to understand why it's one of his lesser-performed tragedies,

00:01:14.440 it does still have some remarkable contemplations on the connections between wealth, loyalty, friendship,

00:01:20.440 and the social bonds that bind us and about how these things are broken down by people who can

00:01:27.320 only interpret the world through the money in ledgers and through basically people who are

00:01:33.260 only interested in their own wealth and the cumulative putting other people into debt.

00:01:37.660 So it's actually a really interesting chronicles. I've talked about part one here. Part two will be

00:01:42.620 out this Saturday. So if you're interested in listening to me talk about some Shakespeare,

00:01:47.260 please go do go and tune in uh with that being said then over to you carl okay um so i don't

00:01:54.760 know whether you've been paying attention but um andy burnham's uh new cabinet has just been

00:01:59.620 announced we covered it on the podcast yesterday so i won't go i won't go into it now um but i i

00:02:03.920 can't notice notice the vibes right the vibes of the whole thing and this was his first cabinet

00:02:09.200 meeting uh and we'll just watch it for a second just so you can get the energy i mean look at

00:02:14.400 look at their faces look at their faces they are unbelievably thrilled with all of this

00:02:19.260 can i just say i expect this every meeting

00:02:22.100 thank you so much uh colleagues uh and congratulations uh first uh those of you

00:02:31.720 who've taken new positions thank you for stepping up uh to what are they all smiling for the country

00:02:39.660 is in a harrowing condition like that they're like it's it's kind of mad it's like watching 0.69

00:02:47.760 a ship of fools on a raging sea there's about you sat there because his party is in dire straits 0.88

00:02:54.660 and that's just how to do the rare thing of ousting a labor prime minister which is not 0.99

00:02:59.880 something that's traditionally within the dna of their party and they all go well are we ready for

00:03:04.920 more i mean kind of but and and also the sort of like aha right we've finally made it into the

00:03:10.520 cockpit of cockpit of power yes finally we can fix all of this no no no that's literally everyone

00:03:16.660 else before you i mean he comes and goes i i understand i'm like the seventh prime minister

00:03:21.060 in 10 years or something so yeah why is that because every single one gets into that position

00:03:25.440 it's like finally i can do it oh no wait i can't do anything and even keir starmer got to that point

00:03:29.960 yeah and you're like something yeah so finally we can do some stuff they all think they'll be

00:03:33.760 the one that's different yeah it is mad and so like yeah it's got this atmosphere of like uh

00:03:39.540 a sort of sunday afternoon midsummer garden party but there's a raging wildfire on all sides

00:03:47.100 so what are you doing like there's there's a distinct lack of seriousness that the burnham

00:03:53.080 cabinet and government appears to be approaching this with i mean i mean connor's segment went

00:03:56.980 through it in great detail yesterday so i'll go through it but it's just the recycling of a bunch

00:04:01.400 of blairites with like two new faces it's like really you've just got to dig up all of these

00:04:06.320 people from 20 plus years ago because you've got no one else i mean andy burnham himself

00:04:10.780 is an old blairite member of the cabinet who's been dug up from 20 plus years ago

00:04:15.160 because they've got no one else and he seems to be thinking of himself i mean he literally said

00:04:18.940 i'm the last chance we have for change it's like okay he's the last chance to prevent the change

00:04:26.920 that's needed yeah he's the last chance to save the labor party so okay but i just don't think

00:04:31.740 that's going to happen anyway um the memes have been going around and it's just like yeah like

00:04:36.020 this is genuinely the the greater manchester sunshine bus andy burniman angela raider and 0.96

00:04:45.440 all the rest of the midwit crew being driven presumably off a cliff it's not a ship of fools 0.99

00:04:51.980 it's a bus of fools it is a bus of fools and it's it's one of those things where i just look and 0.99

00:04:56.700 think what did where do you get this optimism from right where does it come from because everyone 1.00

00:05:05.940 else is looking into the future going oh my god oh my god look at the look at the taxes like the

00:05:11.020 government's spending 45 percent of the entire gdp of the country look at the amount of money

00:05:15.740 we've spent look at the debt we've got look at the instability in the world there's two hot wars

00:05:20.960 at the moment that we're basically involved with what are we don't don't worry about all those

00:05:25.100 Andy Burnham has got he's got a plan and it's it's it's step one cap bus fares yeah we'll step

00:05:32.200 two we'll step three Britain is saved yeah we'll we'll get into it's it's really trivial anyway

00:05:37.860 before we begin uh Islander 6 is on sale it is amazing of course uh as mine and Luca's contributions

00:05:44.380 uh will doubtless uh prove um but anyway uh link in the description shop.listies.com go and get

00:05:50.460 that while it is available there's a quick uh there was a slight bug on the website that made

00:05:54.560 it look like it was sold out in the u.s and canada it is not yet sold out in the u.s and canada but

00:05:58.800 island of five did sell out everywhere so it is entirely possible that at some point this will

00:06:03.300 sell out so get it while you can anyway so yeah uh the first thing he came out we were like i mean 0.99

00:06:08.880 right so he came out and gave his speech without electum without any notes because nigel fryer's

00:06:13.840 been needling him about this like oh look i don't need notes and ben was like well i'm

00:06:17.320 professional politician i don't either and to be fair his speech was fine but it was just really

00:06:21.200 with it was like yeah so i'm going to come out and end rough sleeping it's like what priorities i

00:06:26.880 mean this is the number one concern it's not energy prices it's not the collapsing economy

00:06:30.940 it's not the lack of growth it's not the open border it is obviously rough sleeping that's

00:06:35.060 the top issue i mean is kia starmer became the least popular prime minister of all time

00:06:39.860 purely off the back of rough sleeping exactly i mean like so that that that is a very very

00:06:46.960 small percentage of people in the country yes that's a very small percentage there's a few

00:06:51.740 thousand rough sleepers around the country right not great but we already have lots of provisions

00:06:58.520 for that uh i i used to i used to give my change to uh beggars and rough sleepers um until nick

00:07:05.760 buckley who ran a charity for homelessness was like look don't do that right and he just he

00:07:11.160 literally told me in swindon you have this this this these people can go there if they want food

00:07:15.820 if they want shelter if they want any of these things if they're not going there it's because

00:07:19.160 they want drugs and you're giving them drug money so that's not i was like okay i didn't know that

00:07:24.120 and it was my ignorance but he knew because he had run a charity for this we have all these

00:07:28.340 provisions for this if people don't use them it's because they want to take drugs something i

00:07:33.140 discovered in san francisco but a different story for a different yeah and even norway was just

00:07:37.360 like look we'll just give people houses because we're a tiny rich country mostly homogenous we

00:07:42.020 can do and they were finding no we just can't get them to stay in the houses yes right some people

00:07:46.540 just don't want to so this is like this sisyphean task that for some reason exactly why vagrancy

00:07:52.580 should be criminalized basically yeah yes which is exactly why it should be criminalized because

00:07:56.520 odds are you're doing a bunch of other things yes and so and and also like if if you're being a

00:08:03.420 vagrant with all of these opportunities to get you in some sort of shelter so you can get a shower

00:08:07.980 go for a job interview or something like that it's because you just don't want to do these

00:08:12.760 things right it's you're making a choice at this point and yet this is in their minds some like

00:08:19.340 it's an inherited um problem from like the 70s that they're bringing forward and so Andy Byrne's

00:08:26.300 like yeah right we're gonna get rid of rough sleeping it's like okay but tens of like there

00:08:31.560 are going to be tens of millions of families around this country who are like I'm really

00:08:35.720 having problems with the amount of money the groceries cost each week right i mean i know we

00:08:40.720 are in my household i'm sure everyone else is what about the price of fuel what about the price of

00:08:44.960 housing rent and things like this it's like oh yeah no we we need to end rough sleeping it's like

00:08:49.380 right okay that's that's not really what i was that worried about i mean it's quite obvious that 0.67

00:08:54.240 there's just a low-level race war going on in this country at the moment right there's just there are

00:08:58.560 loads of videos like this loads of videos like this just go across my timeline here's an english

00:09:02.000 lad being accosted by some foreigner foreigner you're trying to be racist because you're wearing

00:09:20.640 an england top i mean this was during the football right but foreigners intimidating an english lad

00:09:25.860 for wearing an england shirt in foot in england because of the football saying oh you're a racist

00:09:31.680 Well, foreigner knows the magic words, just in all times.

00:09:35.780 But this is, and this is by far from the worst of what I could show. 1.00

00:09:39.840 Sure.

00:09:40.300 But this is what is just essentially a low-level race war

00:09:42.720 that's going on in the country.

00:09:43.740 So, Andy, I don't want this, mate, right?

00:09:45.760 If some English lad wants to walk down the street

00:09:48.340 wearing an England shirt in England, right, 1.00

00:09:50.840 there should be no way any foreigners here should be like, 1.00

00:09:53.880 I'm going to go and bully that guy. 1.00

00:09:56.160 They should be worried about themselves to do this. 1.00

00:10:00.720 but instead the whip hand is with the foreigner and so they're like right okay i found this lone 1.00

00:10:05.540 english guy i mean there are loads of these right loads of these videos where you've got some guy

00:10:10.380 who's just walking around filming for whatever reason and some foreigners see him filming

00:10:14.780 and think right i'm gonna go and threaten him 0.99

00:10:17.380 what is he doing in my country as a kite what is he doing in my goddamn country you think this guy 0.99

00:10:29.840 isn't a threat to just public order oh no homelessness right sorry sorry andy we've got 0.99

00:10:34.420 to solve homelessness i'm sick of these even though this problem is far more ubiquitous

00:10:38.800 throughout the country absolutely i mean like you've got another one here these three like

00:10:43.400 lads who obviously like gym bro guys uh again accosted by a single guy so obviously they're

00:10:48.460 not feeling intimidated but this guy goes up to them and tells them to stop filming so you don't

00:10:52.440 get to tell me what to do right this is not your country get out of my country right these are just

00:10:58.860 common occurrences in england at the moment andy i don't really want to hear about rough sleeping

00:11:05.820 while this kind of thing happens on the streets but what else do we go oh oh for too long people

00:11:11.040 have said that cheaper transport isn't an option i don't accept that i've done it before and i'm

00:11:15.240 going to do it again a two pound cap on bus fares for millions across the country

00:11:18.840 one right this is obvious magical thinking yes one that but we could just declare it couldn't we

00:11:29.800 yeah the government aren't we so yeah okay just declare that the sky is purple and the grass is

00:11:35.300 blue and just declare whatever you like andy right that it's obvious that this is going to incur 0.96

00:11:41.120 debts that we just can't afford because we're all bloody taxed out of the ass and we can't 0.68

00:11:45.000 uh pay for them anyway but is this really the most important thing going on right now but it shows 0.90

00:11:51.140 the complete and total lack of plan right if they have no idea what to do about the situation

00:11:56.540 so they're throwing a few pennies at people in the hope that this will solve the problem

00:12:04.560 and keep them in power until 2029 when that is just impossible yes and the thing is as well

00:12:11.660 that obviously Burnham and a lot of his allies

00:12:14.440 throughout all of this, even when Starmore were in power,

00:12:17.120 they knew that they were going to play this move.

00:12:19.000 They knew that they were going to...

00:12:20.060 This has been a coup long in the making,

00:12:22.340 which also means that it's a coup

00:12:23.840 that's had more than enough time

00:12:25.100 to come up with some sort of economic plan.

00:12:27.600 Yeah, I mean, don't get me wrong,

00:12:29.420 I am in favour of not having to pay a lot of money

00:12:32.500 for a bus fare.

00:12:33.360 I mean, when I was young, bus fares used to be quite cheap

00:12:35.080 because it was before all the inflation and whatnot, right? 0.52

00:12:37.860 But we're in the middle of a rape epidemic

00:12:39.520 at the moment, Andy.

00:12:40.720 like this is from Sheffield right this is again I'm choosing these individual videos rather than

00:12:44.840 getting statistics so I want people to understand what it's actually like for people on the streets 0.97

00:12:49.600 of this country because it could be anywhere at any time why why are you fucking asking girls to 0.98

00:12:54.320 kiss their feet and that when just a minute ago old women why are you asking old women to smell 1.00

00:12:59.920 their feet bro it's not a fucking joke it's not a fucking joke is it huh it's not a fucking joke 0.99

00:13:07.820 that's my bird yesterday 1.00

00:13:10.540 why are you doing that 1.00

00:13:15.220 you know where you are you fucking know where you are 1.00

00:13:19.600 yeah you're not in fucking hills bro 1.00

00:13:23.320 look at this dirty bastard 1.00

00:13:25.300 so again i do not want foreigners going around and asking my wife and daughter to kiss their feet 1.00

00:13:34.040 that is a race war andy you loser i'm absolutely sick of this crap right but what's the well the 0.99

00:13:42.080 labor party oh and sorry bbc news night they're like oh well i i can't believe rachel reeves was 1.00

00:13:46.820 replaced by a man is what they literally complain about on this it's like are you insane are you 0.99

00:13:52.380 insane you've got these foreign rapists running around intimidating women just on the street in 0.99

00:13:57.020 the middle of the day and this is what you talk about anyway like we are absolutely swamped with 0.97

00:14:04.200 the boris wave and that's of course who these sort of people are you know we've got all of

00:14:08.200 these bloody boris wavers and what is happening what are what are people's natural responses to

00:14:13.740 this their segregation right self-segregation people are i mean this is an example uh in wales

00:14:21.160 where they've decided they're going to set up a white only town in wales i'm not going to

00:14:25.740 criticize it i don't want a country in which we feel we have to self-segregate because that would

00:14:30.740 imply that we've lost control of the country and in fact hang on a second why you know this this

00:14:36.180 was our country so we shouldn't have to segregate anything because there just shouldn't be enough 0.99

00:14:40.060 foreigners in the country to segregate from but sorry andy were you two two pound bus fare you

00:14:47.240 were talking about a two pound bus fare that sounded really important wasn't there one where 0.51

00:14:51.380 who's going to i forgot to get it but the um vat reduction on energy bills so you save three pounds

00:14:56.900 a month which is about 40 pounds a year or something like okay great but we're currently 0.98

00:15:03.380 seeing segregation happening in real time in our country because the foreigners keep harassing

00:15:08.740 people in the streets like andy i think we've got bigger problems than this you know i just 0.73

00:15:14.300 and then the next oh well i'm going to cut 20 business rates for pubs i can't walk home safely

00:15:20.420 from the pub i don't go to the pub because of the price of the pub i mean don't go wrong beer is of

00:15:25.700 course through the roof at the moment but i that's not the reason i don't go to the pub it's because 1.00

00:15:30.420 i'm not safe walking back from it i should have got the videos of um the immigrants harassing 0.87

00:15:36.920 drunk girls on their way back from the pubs yeah there are loads of these videos it's like no that's 0.97

00:15:41.160 a rapist andy there are rapists hanging outside of the pubs who are looking for drunk white girls 1.00

00:15:46.020 to rape on the way home. 1.00

00:15:47.940 Why is it...

00:15:48.780 Sorry, but 20% cut in business rates.

00:15:50.820 I mean, don't get me wrong.

00:15:51.860 Wonderful.

00:15:52.600 But what about the rest of the high street?

00:15:54.360 Like, what about the rest 0.99

00:15:55.320 of the goddamn high street? 0.99

00:15:57.080 Why is every high street 1.00

00:15:58.060 full of charity shops

00:15:59.080 and businesses are closing

00:16:00.320 and if they aren't,

00:16:02.320 it's vape shops and Turkish barbers?

00:16:04.140 Exactly.

00:16:05.240 You know, like,

00:16:05.880 these businesses

00:16:07.200 are not really businesses

00:16:09.120 and they're not paying business rates,

00:16:11.780 which is why they can proliferate

00:16:13.140 and every legitimate business goes down.

00:16:16.020 And so he's just like, oh, yeah, but I'm going to cut the business rates.

00:16:18.680 Yeah, but no, no, we need to abolish business rates

00:16:21.080 if we want to compete with these fake businesses.

00:16:22.860 And this is a big BBC in-depth point

00:16:27.780 about the degradation of the high streets, right?

00:16:31.900 And people want to feel safe.

00:16:33.500 They don't feel safe because they feel like they're surrounded by corruption.

00:16:38.140 And that's only because they are surrounded by corruption. 0.82

00:16:40.520 They're surrounded by these illegitimate foreign businesses 0.99

00:16:42.820 that are fronts for crime. 0.88

00:16:44.400 and it's like no sorry andy two pound on the bus fares mate that's not going to do it or the you

00:16:49.700 know 20 business cut for pubs you don't understand why we're not going to the pubs andy right you

00:16:55.020 don't understand and then okay and when it comes recently brutally murdered just absolutely head

00:17:00.880 smashed in 21 times apparently by a guy some leftist with a hammer and your government is

00:17:07.040 joking around about letting prisoners out he wants to let them all out they're thinking about

00:17:20.220 releasing something like 6 000 prisoners why is that funny great question this is why shibana

00:17:26.120 and the rest of them are like ah well i mean there's no ill intent behind this how how is

00:17:30.660 there no ill intent before about releasing dangerous criminals onto society when the

00:17:36.220 police can only secure prosecutions at five percent of all cases how how is that like why

00:17:43.180 why are they laughing what is there to laugh about that that is that is the question what is

00:17:48.960 there to laugh about like politicians are literally being murdered and everyone's just like okay don't

00:17:55.000 worry about it people are being murdered they're being harassed they think they wouldn't be murdered 0.98

00:17:58.900 by the same kind of people over gaza over climate change over one damn thing or the other you think 0.62

00:18:22.260 happening like to what's the what's the next thing oh oh yeah sorry yeah this is just an

00:18:27.660 example of um this chap uh daxwell is memon daxwell's memon whatever his name is um he's

00:18:33.620 done a great job of just going through and finding all the uh illegitimate uh expert visa

00:18:39.200 sponsorships and so you've got you know these sorts of shops that just aren't even open but

00:18:43.760 they are sponsoring 20 skilled migrants from this one it's like you're right okay so we've got this 1.00

00:18:48.660 massive dark economy we've got an insane attitude of the foreigners towards the locals the locals 0.74

00:18:53.820 are beginning to genuinely self-segregate along racial lines and you guys are like yeah i think 1.00

00:18:58.520 we're gonna let out all the prisoners it's like what are you doing right there are foreigners

00:19:02.360 who go on tv or like you know viral clips here with this particular clip is not the main one

00:19:08.420 that i saw going around i had like 50 million views on it but this is a foreigner who's been 0.95

00:19:12.920 raised in britain who's like oh the british people the most evil people in history they 0.81

00:19:17.020 have to be very sweet because americans think british people are so sweet which is crazy 0.83

00:19:21.040 because British people are truly the most evil people in history. 0.99

00:19:25.980 Like, they are sun-offs. 1.00

00:19:29.620 Sorry, why are we raising this, Andy?

00:19:32.380 Why are we tolerating this? 1.00

00:19:34.980 Why do we have foreigners who are born and raised in Britain 0.96

00:19:37.240 saying the British are the most evil people in history? 1.00

00:19:39.360 How's that integration going? 0.99

00:19:40.720 Yeah, how's the integration going?

00:19:43.000 Why do we have to tolerate this?

00:19:44.380 And the site's a totally bogus figure of 43 trillion as well.

00:19:47.580 nonsense but it the truth of it would never penetrate her mind no you know it's not about

00:19:52.900 the truth of it it's about her finding reasons to hate us because we are white that's what this is

00:19:57.880 about and what's andy burnham like oh i'm going to increase foreign aid to 0.7 of gdp which is

00:20:03.480 going to cost us 16 and a half billion but the foreigners need that money it's like do they

00:20:08.260 and you're gonna oh my god i just what is going to be achieved with it what is i mean i think the

00:20:16.340 The figure for aid to Africa is in the trillions.

00:20:18.720 Oh, God, yeah. 0.97

00:20:19.320 I mean, who cares?

00:20:20.100 And here we are.

00:20:21.920 India and Pakistan.

00:20:23.880 USAID stops financing their projects.

00:20:27.200 There's no electricity in some parts.

00:20:29.060 There's food insecurity.

00:20:30.140 Okay, you clearly aren't able to govern yourselves.

00:20:33.900 That is your problem.

00:20:35.500 You wanted independence.

00:20:36.540 Why are you here?

00:20:37.140 Well, it looks virtuous, though, doesn't it?

00:20:40.060 To the international, you know, to the UN and to the EU. 1.00

00:20:44.000 and i guess to some retards it must it's it it's just ridiculous how all andy burnham has done is 0.97

00:20:51.660 come out and be like hey guys i'm gonna do things that may have made sense back in about 1978 when 0.88

00:20:58.140 the rubbish was piling up in the uh streets then the power was out for two days a week and when

00:21:03.740 people were only working three or four day weeks anyway and we actually needed everything you know

00:21:08.040 we're in a massive economic depression these things may have made sense then and of course

00:21:13.480 he came out and lamented margaret thatcher he was like oh yeah margaret thatcher there's the

00:21:17.240 worst thing that happened to the north okay maybe i mean maybe the rape gangs were worse yeah you

00:21:24.120 know maybe what's actually happening right now is actually worse than margaret i mean don't get

00:21:28.600 wrong i'm not a big fan of margaret thatcher but like he's clearly living in a different era yes

00:21:34.280 and he's play acting out this kind of fancy he i bet he's sat on this will for a long time i wish

00:21:40.780 I could just undo what Margaret Thatcher did.

00:21:43.020 Suddenly I'm the Prime Minister,

00:21:44.120 and he's playing out a fantasy of a Britain

00:21:47.340 that disappeared 40-plus years ago.

00:21:50.160 And the fact that he's thinking,

00:21:51.500 oh, I'm going to be here for 10 years,

00:21:53.000 there's going to be a 10-year program,

00:21:55.900 he has zero awareness of how short his political longevity is.

00:22:01.260 He doesn't understand at all the precariousness of his position.

00:22:07.000 And here he is, okay, two-pound bus fares.

00:22:09.720 Congratulations.

00:22:10.780 Who found Andy?

00:22:12.740 Yeah, yeah.

00:22:13.220 And this is all a product of the fact that 0.99

00:22:14.980 they are just all moronic at this point, right? 1.00

00:22:19.260 Yes. 1.00

00:22:19.700 Lisa Nandy isn't just like this. 0.99

00:22:22.040 Lucy Powell, the education secretary.

00:22:25.620 I don't want to support the conservatives,

00:22:27.840 but they are absolutely right to be like,

00:22:30.500 look at the grammar and spelling of this tweet

00:22:33.280 announcing that she became the education secretary.

00:22:35.940 Absolutely thrilled the be appointed education secretary.

00:22:39.180 for me no comma there's no more important job for any government than making sure young people

00:22:44.520 can have the best education the best opportunities and that no oxford comma and the best future they

00:22:49.260 can lots to do that and i look forward to getting started yeah terrible absolutely terrible no

00:22:55.560 excuse for it and yet this is the government that we now have i think the worst was basically an

00:23:01.240 older post of hers where she was saying that essentially kids don't need to learn very much

00:23:07.020 because they can find it all online,

00:23:09.600 which completely misunderstands

00:23:12.460 how learning actually works.

00:23:13.900 You need some memory

00:23:15.940 in order to be able to know

00:23:17.800 what it is that you should be looking for.

00:23:20.300 AI doesn't solve anything

00:23:23.240 in terms of education,

00:23:24.640 but she believes that.

00:23:25.560 But also it's about being in a framework.

00:23:27.820 You are brought into a particular environment

00:23:29.700 in which your mind is in the mindset

00:23:34.180 of, oh, I have work to do now.

00:23:36.380 Yes.

00:23:36.580 when you're just like browsing the internet you're not in that mindset you're not learning

00:23:40.140 things anyway the point is this government looks ridiculous to me right they they are just in no

00:23:47.820 way going to address any of the actual substantive problems that people encounter in their daily

00:23:53.840 lives right that even if oh yeah this two pound bus thing okay that's great so what was the bus

00:23:59.600 for four pounds i don't know you know i'm using bus for energy actually but like that's that's

00:24:05.440 not solving any of the genuine substantive problems of the world and it it's embarrassing

00:24:11.700 watching them being so effervescent about it like ha ha ha ha ha isn't this all so funny guys like

00:24:18.560 no like it feels like the country is primed for a revolution it feels like we have millions of 0.99

00:24:26.100 hostile foreigners in our midst and it feels like we're all about to go bankrupt and also as well 0.55

00:24:31.500 But when, you know, God forbid, but it will happen,

00:24:34.440 another Southport takes place or something in the near future

00:24:37.680 or some latest thing that is just a product of the reality

00:24:41.060 that you've been showing across all of these clips,

00:24:43.560 they're going to come forward with really solemn faces

00:24:45.900 and just, you know, with the same old buzzwords about everything again.

00:24:48.780 And it will appear totally insincere because it is,

00:24:51.780 because they're not people who were, from the very beginning,

00:24:54.620 treating this moment with the gravity that it deserves.

00:24:57.240 What if one of the released criminals goes on a Southport massacre?

00:25:01.500 yeah what do they do then they're going to get this youth them laughing about it thrown back

00:25:06.800 in their face i mean andy is acting as if there won't be a southport murder oh yeah no that was

00:25:12.040 something that happened to keir starmer but this is the new bright new future i'm sure that some

00:25:15.860 immigrant won't go murder a bunch of children and that you know tens of thousands of tommy robbins

00:25:20.400 supporting uh tommy robinson supporting football humans won't go down burning around mosques or

00:25:24.820 something like like why do you think you're not in the same system why do you think you're not

00:25:30.280 in the same circumstances sitting on a powder keg smoking a cigarette absolutely maddening

00:25:35.400 anyway i'll leave i'll leave that just because i'm i'm just like really angers me watching them

00:25:40.640 frankly yeah um base tape says have you seen piccadilly gardens he was unable to end rough

00:25:45.640 sleeping in a small square in the center of a city he had absolute control over we'll talk about 1.00

00:25:49.760 that in just a minute basically all right okay um our feminist governments will only ever tackle 1.00

00:25:54.400 first world issues because solving real problems requires the use of force and that's being mean 1.00

00:25:57.780 and being mean is the last thing the women in government want well yeah exactly and look at

00:26:00.900 the people around him like do you think they've ever like how would you even broach the subject

00:26:06.640 of foreigners being a problem in the country without them recoiling oh you're a racist

00:26:11.580 if that's what you call me but that's still the problem i would like to talk about uh bus fare

00:26:17.740 was already two pound capped by the conservatives labor raised it and now want to praise for putting

00:26:21.520 back to two pounds i said i haven't used a bus for ages because i live in the southwest and buses

00:26:25.620 aren't great here. Not that

00:26:27.640 there's any shade, it's just the roads are really

00:26:29.480 winding narrow. Ochidil

00:26:31.520 says, the burning is fine meme isn't

00:26:33.660 posted enough. That's true. Let's carry on. 1.00

00:26:37.400 Alright

00:26:37.660 then, ladies and gentlemen. So,

00:26:39.440 after Andy Burnham's

00:26:41.600 recent conclusive victory

00:26:43.240 in Makerfield, which, you know, obviously

00:26:45.640 allowed him to become an MP, and 0.67

00:26:47.460 now he's accidentally cooed out the

00:26:49.500 Prime Minister by mistake, and is

00:26:51.620 now, you know, in charge of our

00:26:53.540 country. Well, this has left something of

00:26:55.580 vacuum in Manchester, because previously, of course, Andy Burnham, in fact, it was the only

00:27:00.200 thing that anyone really knew him for, was being the mayor of Manchester. And so naturally,

00:27:06.120 there's an election on there now with him no longer being the mayor, and all of the parties

00:27:10.900 have been putting a hat in the ring, and they're all obviously taking a pitch to the people of

00:27:15.800 Manchester about who is the right person for the moment. Now, we might differ than them on this

00:27:23.160 quite a bit, actually, because we've recently been writing Islander magazine, the sixth issue

00:27:28.500 of this. And the theme of this particular issue is what needs to be done, where a lot of people

00:27:33.420 from our spheres have really been contemplating the moment, looking at the mismanagement and the

00:27:38.540 malicious action around us and thinking about in this 11th hour, where do we go from here and how

00:27:45.000 do we alleviate some of the pressure and the problems that people are dealing with? And so

00:27:49.820 I'd encourage you to go over to the website and get the sixth issue of Islander because there's

00:27:55.000 some great essays in there and it makes for a really good read. So let's just talk about Labour,

00:28:01.580 shall we, for a minute, because they're literally doing the meme. Bev Craig promises Gen Z commission

00:28:08.200 and a youth centre in every greater Manchester town. We're literally doing that. We'll just build

00:28:14.080 more youth centres, guys, and then all of the drug dealing and the knife wielding will just

00:28:20.180 There was an example a couple of months ago

00:28:22.580 of some kid who was stabbed to death in a youth club,

00:28:25.620 and I was just like, oh, God.

00:28:27.220 Yeah.

00:28:27.660 You know, this happened in love.

00:28:28.600 That's horrible.

00:28:29.600 Yeah.

00:28:29.880 Absolutely horrible.

00:28:30.560 It's just like, yeah, it wasn't the youth clubs that were the problem.

00:28:33.900 No.

00:28:34.300 You know?

00:28:35.680 And the most frustrating thing about all of this as well.

00:28:38.860 Labour candidate.

00:28:39.480 It is, I'm afraid.

00:28:40.320 She's going to win as well.

00:28:40.960 Yeah, she'll win.

00:28:41.640 The demographics of Manchester are locked in.

00:28:44.440 This is how it goes now.

00:28:46.180 And that's really frustrating because you actually get candidates like Marlon West, who's a Restore Britain candidate.

00:28:55.440 Now, I actually had the pleasure of meeting Marlon.

00:28:59.940 Sorry, I had the pleasure of meeting Marlon and interviewing him whilst he was going about and helping to campaign for Rebecca Shepard.

00:29:07.460 He was helping to organize her campaign.

00:29:09.840 And Marlon struck me as an eminently good man.

00:29:13.000 He's a man who's involved in politics for all of the right reasons. He's spent the past 30 years of his life working as a qualified nurse for the NHS across all sorts of parts of Manchester.

00:29:25.480 And also as well, he's someone who then walked away from all of that and decided to commit himself to the issue of the rape gangs after his own daughter was personally subjected to them and the barbarity and evil of them.

00:29:40.740 So this is a man who has been through a great deal as a result of all of the decisions, evil decisions, that the establishment have waged against the British people for decades now.

00:29:53.560 And now we find good people like Marlon stepping forward because they have realised that no one is going to come and save them.

00:30:00.700 There is not another party. And the reason why Marlon joined Restore Britain was because Rupert Lowe was the one MP in Parliament who actually meant what he said.

00:30:10.740 when he was talking about getting justice for these girls and exposing the barbarity of what

00:30:16.340 was allowed to happen to them and what was hidden from the public. And so if you want to go and

00:30:22.560 listen to my interview with Marlon, it's just there. But Marlon is, if this will load, it's

00:30:29.220 all right. Well, you can see behind him. You just- Yeah, look at the state of it. Yeah, just as a

00:30:33.920 screenshot, it works. You can see the screen grab. And this is from exactly as Bay State was just

00:30:38.560 saying there manchester piccadilly gardens man there's there's this this phrase that's attributed

00:30:44.460 to pericles which is you know even if you don't take an interest in politics politics will take

00:30:48.840 an interest in you and that really is how marlin has arrived here right yes so if we just go back

00:30:53.360 to the it's entirely political that these men are in the background here it's entirely political

00:30:59.920 that his daughter was the victim of rape gangs yes manchester all of these consequences are the

00:31:06.560 consequences of policies that the governments have pursued for years now and have dragged men

00:31:13.160 like him into politics because what other choice do you have yes where else can you go and and the

00:31:20.180 most insufferable thing about it all especially when it comes to a place like manchester is that

00:31:25.060 i've visited um manchester on several occasions because they have some good friends up there

00:31:30.000 and every single time you're in the town center you just sorry the city center as soon as you get

00:31:34.800 off the train at Victoria, it is just the most dispiriting experience of your life. It is just

00:31:40.100 just being there surrounded by all the people is just instantly demoralizing. And when you see

00:31:45.980 statues to people like Sir Arthur Wellesley, you know, just statues of the Duke of Wellington with

00:31:51.520 just Deliveroo bikers around it and just the smell of drugs, it genuinely just shows you how far

00:31:58.240 it's fallen. And when you get good men like Marlon and those that restore Britain who think, well,

00:32:03.000 okay, we're not actually going to accept the decline forever. And this is a really important

00:32:08.700 point, because even though, look, I agree, Labour are probably going to just steamroll this entire

00:32:13.660 thing, because they have the right voter base there, fundamentally. Because those who are the

00:32:18.860 minorities from there are obviously going to vote Labour. And also as well, even if it is a British 0.97

00:32:26.900 white population, it's an urban city environment, and those people tend to be more liberal as well.

00:32:32.360 And so it's an increasingly uphill battle. But that doesn't mean that the cities should therefore be abandoned, that we should give upon them. Because who else do they belong to? They're our cities. Manchester was built on the backs of the working class Mancunians for generations.

00:32:50.640 When you look at the old black and white photos of the men out there digging the canals for Manchester and just all of the labours that were sent into it and the mills and everything, so on and so forth.

00:33:04.180 That's our people.

00:33:05.240 That's our story.

00:33:06.320 We are the reason why Manchester became a place that people from around the world even wanted to go to in the first place.

00:33:13.900 And look at those guys in the background, right?

00:33:15.900 Look at those guys and their bikes in the background.

00:33:17.920 When we're gone, do you think they're going to lament you?

00:33:20.640 no you think they're going to even remember you they won't even notice they exactly they won't

00:33:25.660 even notice um at all um and so marlon's messaging throughout all of this has been very very strong

00:33:33.140 and obviously a campaign against the rape gangs has been at the forefront of that campaign as we

00:33:38.720 can see here saying as mayor i keep my promise to ensure the safety of women children and all

00:33:43.460 people in manchester no agenda not a career politician no ego and no cover-ups as well

00:33:49.000 And speaking about the fact that there will be, he will use the power that he has as mayor of Manchester to help to reform Manchester policing, which is a vital step and you won't achieve anything without it.

00:34:04.720 and as well to actually have as well some transparency and to allow women from across

00:34:11.200 manchester all of its constituencies to come forward and actually be able to have conversations

00:34:17.400 about it open and free without the persecution of the state telling them that's not the politically

00:34:24.460 correct way to explain this you see it all the time you see threats being made against some of

00:34:30.240 victims these days you see the the the rapists making threats against the victims how do they

00:34:36.000 feel so safe well they do yeah now this video here went pretty viral as you can see got a quarter of

00:34:42.480 a million views on the youtube with marlon and monty walking around manchester piccadilly gardens

00:34:48.240 and there's just a few clips i wanted to play from it over there is a kids play park and you've got

00:34:52.800 where essentially migrants sat doing God knows what.

00:34:57.800 And as I've said previously, Piccadilly Gardens. 0.97

00:35:00.800 Does this really look like a garden to you?

00:35:03.800 Does this look like a garden?

00:35:05.800 It's far from it. 1.00

00:35:07.800 If I'm honest with you, it's a shit hole. 1.00

00:35:09.800 It's illegal immigrants. 1.00

00:35:13.800 I mean, who's sat on that bench?

00:35:15.800 No, not to be too explicit,

00:35:17.800 but the people that are sat over there.

00:35:19.800 and so you just see this all over and it goes exactly back to what you were saying carl as

00:35:25.080 well in your segment about the fact that what was the bus fare though well but also as well like how

00:35:32.020 do you expect a city to have a thriving nightlife when you know that something like that is just a

00:35:37.680 waiting for you in every green every corner and the trajectory it's only getting worse these things

00:35:43.340 are only becoming more frequent and then there was also just one more that i've time stamped here

00:35:48.260 where i wanted to go through what these young lads were saying where they talk about their

00:35:54.060 experience i could change that what do you think we could do change it like truthfully yeah it'd

00:36:12.800 a miracle if you could change it and that's honestly why it needs it all right yeah

00:36:23.040 all these young kids they absolutely understand that this one they understand it's not normal

00:36:28.400 yeah they understand that it's a danger to them they understand that it affects their entire

00:36:33.200 existence just going about their hometown and also as well the most dispiriting thing

00:36:39.200 they don't see a way it can change.

00:36:41.620 No.

00:36:41.780 They think, as you see there, it'd be a miracle.

00:36:44.280 They think that this is their future now.

00:36:46.580 I genuinely hate the exposure that these young people have had

00:36:51.940 to the immigrant culture as well.

00:36:53.940 They don't dress like that and talk like that

00:36:55.900 because of exposure to the native English culture anywhere,

00:36:59.560 in Manchester or anywhere else in England. 1.00

00:37:01.480 They dress like this because that's how the immigrants dress. 1.00

00:37:04.340 They talk like this because that's how the immigrants talk, 1.00

00:37:06.520 this bloody you know uk patois yeah that they've developed i i find it so disgusting it actually 1.00

00:37:13.900 it makes my skin crawl hearing it very jarring it but it's it's worse when it's some just young 0.96

00:37:20.140 english kids who are just forced to exist in this so they have to be like this to survive

00:37:25.420 in this culture and it's just i just find it genuinely disgusting yeah i mean not on their

00:37:31.840 part but like the fact that this is because they're just kids they're not responsible yes

00:37:35.080 like it's it's the fact that this is the the world would put them into good luck to you you know it's

00:37:40.540 like god yeah and uh they won the labor party wonder why just trust is breaking and they also

00:37:47.160 want to give votes to the uh the 16 year olds as well those who have actually lived in this

00:37:52.820 maybe that would be a good thing for us yeah maybe maybe uh also as well as we see here as

00:37:58.800 restore britain's great manchester mayor marlon uh west will uh push for the full ban on individual

00:38:05.060 using loudspeakers on public transport.

00:38:07.840 We don't want to hear aggressive rap music

00:38:09.700 blaring out or private conversations in foreign languages

00:38:12.820 held so that the entire bus is forced to endure it.

00:38:15.960 Just the little things that people have to deal with.

00:38:18.340 We didn't have to ban in the old days.

00:38:20.640 No, we didn't at all.

00:38:22.340 And then we come to the fact of Marlon's story,

00:38:26.500 and he did an interview here with the Manchester Evening News.

00:38:29.660 Now, on top of a lot of the policies that I've mentioned

00:38:32.960 about changing the police constabulary, cleaning it up, getting rid of the DEI gunk in the

00:38:40.640 system, and also as well just bringing someone into it who is not a career politician and

00:38:47.160 has been personally affected by the evil of the system itself, is by far and away a better

00:38:54.620 turnout for Manchester and would see it prosper just by those metrics alone than the more

00:39:00.860 of the same nature of what you're going to get with the Labour Party. And the other thing as

00:39:05.880 well is just the fact that it's so infuriating when you see someone saying, yeah, do you actually

00:39:11.240 want these people surrounding you forever just making things worse? And the majority of them

00:39:16.900 are like, yeah, I don't mind too much, actually, just a few more Gibbs would be the best.

00:39:21.680 You know, it's so disgustingly cynical as well that Andy Burnham was like, right, okay, I need 0.85

00:39:26.640 to find a constituency to run in uh so i can become the prime minister and he chose the whitest 0.86

00:39:33.780 area of manchester right yeah he chose 97 english why didn't you go for one of the inner ones

00:39:40.000 there's like 97 foreign why didn't you go there andy no but this is the manchester you've built

00:39:45.300 and yet when it was like okay i need to get back into parliament oh i'll go to the people who my

00:39:50.360 party has been victimizing all of this time i'll say no no no i'm going to fix the party put me

00:39:55.320 fact that i'm going to use you guys but i have to go quite a way out of central manchester to find

00:40:00.340 that now and so it's just the the revealed preference is i need white people to help me

00:40:04.820 yeah i can't rely on the immigrants and yet we're going to get more immigrants we're going to get 0.51

00:40:09.560 more of the same we're going to like as you said it's more of the same that has brought us to this 1.00

00:40:13.340 point and it's just it yeah i just hate it but also as well that particular um aspect of campaigning

00:40:19.360 in Makerfield and its homogenous character, it specifically allows Burnham to campaign on a

00:40:25.080 narrative message, which ties that particular people to the history of the Labour Party in a

00:40:31.120 way that the new arrivals wouldn't be affected by because they weren't here when those people were

00:40:37.480 voting Labour back in 1980. And so the entire thing is such a great mockery. Now, he goes on

00:40:44.260 to say in this. It says, once the cameras stopped rolling, West opened a folder containing the key

00:40:49.660 points of his mayoral campaign. Child exploitation came first. It sits at the heart of West's campaign.

00:40:56.340 If elected, he wants to create a dedicated task force within Greater Manchester Police to

00:41:02.020 investigate historic cases and present its findings to Parliament. Quoted as saying,

00:41:07.660 more money invested, more police on the streets. We'll have summits for women in every borough 0.85

00:41:13.060 on a regular basis, and we'll actually listen to what the women and girls are saying and take that 0.99

00:41:18.440 forward. We need the public to also support this with evidence, if I'm being honest with you.

00:41:23.300 A lot of the women and girls that I'm speaking to don't have any trust in the mayor's office,

00:41:28.700 in the Greater Manchester Constabulary or GMP, and we'll need to gain that quickly. Because I'm not

00:41:35.380 a career politician, we'll be able to gain that trust more quickly than the other parties, and we

00:41:40.300 need to go back to to common sense and he talks about the fact that he's obviously been a man who

00:41:45.840 is local to manchester uh for all of his life and so uh but then it got then it got very very strange

00:41:53.560 now there's a link missing jack i do apologize but if i just um if you could i'll highlight it

00:41:59.260 for you in the document mate uh if you so then this all has been going on and i will just say

00:42:06.200 as well so restore britain have been polling about seven eight percent according to the very

00:42:11.300 few polls that we have yeah now that's that's nothing to shy away from for a major city for a

00:42:18.460 party that's four five months old that's amazing that's really good that once again shows that

00:42:23.440 you know what was in great yarmouth were uh support being consolidated and where you're

00:42:28.580 coming into maker fields with a fresh message that that message is resonating with a lot of people

00:42:34.420 and actually cutting through and i imagine just on that like to get like seven or eight percent in

00:42:40.200 the polls this early in to restore britain's career is not negligible at all i mean the green

00:42:45.600 party were nowhere near for years absolutely yes like reform were nowhere near for years you know

00:42:52.800 richard tice didn't take reform anywhere like this until it became apparent that the problems

00:42:57.240 were just so bad that people were just like right i'm done with two-party politics right and tice

00:43:01.660 was the default alternative you know and well restore britain is not the default alternative

00:43:06.860 reform is still the default alternative we are in fact presenting something paradigmatically new

00:43:13.020 yes and also as well something that always has a point of reference because this problem touches 1.00

00:43:20.120 basically everybody's life now unless you live in you know some of the sleepiest shires and even 1.00

00:43:25.780 there labor are determined to change that as quickly as possible you know even there you see 1.00

00:43:30.000 the odd one and he's thinking how did you get here yeah uh and so we found ourselves in this

00:43:35.360 situation where well it just so happens so the the actual um election for the mayor is going to

00:43:41.220 be a week today it's going to be on the 30th of july and it just so happened that two weeks out

00:43:46.600 marlon found that the nursing and midwifery council the investigating committee uh decided

00:43:51.960 to suspend him and suspend his license to perform as a nurse as he has done for over 30 years and

00:43:58.560 And this comes despite the fact that Marlon has never had a complaint

00:44:02.060 about his professional conduct before,

00:44:05.460 and has obviously been a man who...

00:44:07.780 Let me guess, they didn't appreciate the way he spoke about the grooming gangs.

00:44:12.620 You got it in one.

00:44:13.760 How did I know it?

00:44:14.400 You got it in one.

00:44:15.540 You can also see here, Mr. West, not present and not represented at this hearing.

00:44:20.740 Sorry, sorry, can we go back up a second?

00:44:22.600 Sure.

00:44:23.160 So the panel members, Liz Maxley, Hayley Ball, Howard Millington,

00:44:27.140 and then the hearings coordinator, Angela...

00:44:30.540 I can't pronounce that.

00:44:32.120 The councillor.

00:44:32.980 Yeah, right, okay. 1.00

00:44:34.260 Twemena.

00:44:36.460 And so Marlon put out a reply,

00:44:38.680 and one of the things that he said about this

00:44:40.580 was the fact that he found about this,

00:44:44.260 he found out about this,

00:44:45.700 not through the council submitting the suspension to him,

00:44:50.020 but from the Manchester Evening News.

00:44:52.480 So they didn't even tell him?

00:44:53.740 No.

00:44:54.920 Obvious political remover.

00:44:57.140 Now, in another...

00:44:58.500 It's become standard in the whole HR world.

00:45:02.740 It is now the done thing.

00:45:06.120 In any corporation,

00:45:08.200 and I would know because that's exactly what happened,

00:45:10.480 you get an accusation

00:45:11.660 and the whole thing is decided behind your back.

00:45:14.560 You have no right of reply.

00:45:16.120 You have no right of appeal.

00:45:17.920 You have pretty much nothing,

00:45:19.780 at least in the corporate world.

00:45:21.340 I don't know if there are appeals here in the NHS.

00:45:23.740 And they just decide,

00:45:24.560 okay, you are persona non grata.

00:45:27.140 so this is the new uh extent this is basically political commissars existing in every large

00:45:36.680 corporation and in every government body you have political commissars who will inspect your

00:45:42.220 opinions and if they find find them uh unapproved you're gone um and so marlon's found himself in

00:45:51.740 this position and as i say send this interview exactly how it was sprung upon him but he also

00:45:56.660 said as well so he spoke to the manchester evening paper once again about this and he said to them i

00:46:01.800 regret nothing and i will not be apologized sorry i should actually say what they actually used

00:46:06.340 against me as well like what they actually so basically they dug up as they always do there's

00:46:11.340 never something recent they really have to go back in the minds for this um a facebook comment 0.84

00:46:16.600 that marlon had left saying this is what pakistanis do after being raped and tortured 0.98

00:46:21.940 my daughter you sicko and he also said to ban afghans from entering the united kingdom 0.98

00:46:26.900 um yeah yeah yeah what perfectly i'm waiting for the crime like the his speech crime what's he said

00:46:35.220 that's wrong well what they're going to do is obviously it's like oh because he has um somewhat

00:46:39.800 prejudicial views against uh a community that preyed upon his vulnerable daughter because they 0.98

00:46:45.300 raped his daughter yeah because they raped his daughter uh you're now you're not allowed to be 0.99

00:46:50.120 angry about that. And if you just voice that publicly on Facebook, which is very, very natural 0.99

00:46:55.620 and what most people do. And the other thing as well is, of course, there was never that they're

00:47:00.360 using this to basically say, oh, well, this means that Marlon can't be trusted to be neutral when

00:47:08.400 dealing with people from different backgrounds or whatever. It's like, well, there's been no

00:47:11.780 previous comment on the fact that like someone of a foreign background didn't feel safe with

00:47:17.400 mal on nursing them or anything of that sort obviously just had a video of a muslim woman

00:47:22.700 refusing to provide health care to an autistic english woman who had a dog i haven't heard about

00:47:30.220 her being suspended even though she did refuse medical care and she said no no you can't you

00:47:35.780 can't come here essentially so it always goes only one way because this is what the system is designed

00:47:43.300 to do because this is the job of these political commissars. This is what they're doing.

00:47:48.160 Yeah, it is. And also there's a fact as well that throughout all of this, as Rupert points out,

00:47:55.360 evidently someone at the Nursing and Midwifery Council leaked the report about Marlon's

00:48:00.520 suspension over his social media post to the Manchester Evening News in order to torpedo

00:48:06.020 Restore Britain's Greater Manchester mayoral campaign, a disgraceful misuse of power to

00:48:11.400 harm Restore Britain. Marlon was posting about the rape of his daughter by Pakistani gangs in

00:48:16.380 the private group, and he is allowed to be angry about that, obviously. Certainly looks like an

00:48:22.520 individual at the Nursing and Midwifery Council with access to private files has leaked that to

00:48:28.160 the media days before an election in order to damage Restore Britain. It won't work. Thousands

00:48:33.700 and thousands of patriots across Greater Manchester are backing Marlon and Restore Britain.

00:48:39.060 sorry i love i love the clip from the manchester evening news there the concerns relate to social

00:48:43.800 media posts made by mr west in 2025 manchester evening news understands that these include

00:48:48.340 comments referring to the abuse suffered by his own daughter and now tell me how he's the bad guy

00:48:52.800 yeah it's just there's there's another point here which is with the nigel farage's financing issue

00:49:01.220 it seems like it was a leak from the national crime agency uh or from his banks one or the

00:49:09.000 but you are constantly seeing this pattern of lawlessness coming for you from these institutions

00:49:15.060 where the activists who are inside of them basically decide that they will leak private

00:49:20.740 information to the public for political ends and there are never any consequences do you know what

00:49:25.820 they don't leak and where comes murderers information that's that sorry somehow how

00:49:30.680 have we not got one single social media post from this guy really he didn't know anyone he

00:49:35.020 wasn't connected or anything never used social media never used reddit 28 year old guy never

00:49:39.260 used social media nothing radicalized leftist apparently yeah with newspaper clippings on his

00:49:44.780 wall what what is he from the 1930s like not one social media post no no that's stitched up

00:49:50.960 completely sewn up a complete silence no leakages there whatsoever here oh slip slip um and so put

00:50:01.320 Of course, that doesn't stop the BBC immediately coming out

00:50:05.120 with just headlines like,

00:50:06.460 restore mayoral candidates suspended by professional body,

00:50:09.480 as if to say they have found that this is not a professional man.

00:50:12.740 You know, that Marlon hasn't dedicated himself to the NHS

00:50:16.800 for many decades of his life and fighting for justice for his daughter

00:50:20.820 and countless others as well.

00:50:23.440 The dirtiest tricks are being played.

00:50:24.880 Yeah.

00:50:25.320 And let's not forget as well that the BBC have suddenly remembered,

00:50:29.820 as soon as this story came out about Marlon that Restore Britain actually exists because that's

00:50:35.320 very funny because back in February when Restore Britain were obviously starting to mount the

00:50:41.000 the independent rape gang inquiry and all of that was starting you know people were starting to go

00:50:45.820 there and it was all being we are having hearings we're having people speaking up about it and then

00:50:51.440 we're having it all put together again the BBC said well the government inquiry has a legal power

00:50:57.840 to call witnesses and to acquire organisations

00:51:00.060 to produce documents and recordings,

00:51:02.200 meaning that it's a more wide-ranging inquiry than Mr Lowe's.

00:51:05.720 So therefore, we're not going to address Mr Lowe's

00:51:08.000 because it's not official enough,

00:51:10.500 despite the fact that 20,000 people crowdfunding £600,000

00:51:16.540 Not of public interest, somehow.

00:51:18.560 is not of public interest,

00:51:20.160 despite the fact that it was literally the public

00:51:22.200 who were funding the inquiry in this occasion.

00:51:25.660 But we know why it was,

00:51:26.980 And it's because the BBC are villains, and the only rape gang inquiries that they actually report on are those that have been managed by the handlers of the establishment themselves, who are going to make sure that that finding comes to a safe conclusion, shall we say.

00:51:45.200 But this doesn't mean, of course, that Elon, once again, hasn't noticed all of this.

00:51:50.500 And as he points out here, so Rupert has written a letter, of course, to the chair of the Nursing and Midwifery Council,

00:51:56.780 just pointing to the fact that this is obviously designed to damage them during an election.

00:52:04.360 You know, obviously.

00:52:06.520 And Elon's just right that it could have been your daughter as well.

00:52:09.520 And the fact of the matter is, the fact that the Nursing and Midwifery Council have chosen to do this based off of comments that are so understandable, given the circumstances of Mahon's life, and given the fact that Mahon has decided to dedicate…

00:52:28.540 Which are true. I mean, this is what the Pakistanis are doing, and Afghans clearly have a cultural problem. I mean, it's more important that it's understandable. It's true. 1.00

00:52:37.000 Yeah. And to say nothing of generics, you know, secret Afghans who were brought in as well and the resulting murder of Wayne Broadhurst, et cetera, et cetera. 0.97

00:52:47.260 Just there is a terrible story behind all of these things.

00:52:50.860 And the nursing council is basically just trying to punish the people who are actually trying to restore some sense of justice and safety to the lives of the people of Manchester, who is trying to go out there with a message to the people of Manchester and tell them, your life doesn't have to be more of this.

00:53:14.860 There can be a brighter future.

00:53:18.120 It doesn't have to be more decline.

00:53:19.900 It doesn't have to be more and more danger year on year, and it doesn't have to be a society where alienation and mistrust are just the only avenues available to people.

00:53:32.080 And so irrespective of how well Marlon does in the final tally, I would just really like to commend him for running this campaign on the message that he has been doing,

00:53:42.560 Because far more than anything that's been discussed in Andy Burnham's cabinet meetings, this is the conversation that the British public actually need to be having.

00:53:54.240 Very good. I'll just go through here.

00:53:59.460 Yes. So UK Manichist says, has anyone mentioned women are now in the majority of UK government cabinet and it's all going so well, isn't it?

00:54:10.180 that yeah uh that's around i hadn't even noticed that actually uh that's a random name oh but

00:54:16.460 rachel reeves lost a place so it's still bad uh that's a random name says it looks like

00:54:22.240 nurgle's garden forgive me i don't actually understand that reference don't worry i get

00:54:26.680 that reference okay uh he also says here in canada nhs um works just like firas said uh i've lost a

00:54:34.460 position because i've been accused of something they didn't even tell me what uh just that i did

00:54:39.900 it or that something said something inappropriate that's so kafka-esque yes not only are you being

00:54:45.980 accused of it you're not even allowed to know what you're being charged with pretty much and

00:54:49.660 you just have to face the endless process of bureaucracy as it grinds you down yeah i'll

00:54:55.540 have to do a chronicles on kafka uh that's random name also says the whole system is full of

00:55:00.280 minorities especially africans and muslims who stick with their tribe and accuse people of isms 0.88

00:55:05.060 upper management uh basically staffed by woke white hags uh i'm quitting in four weeks well 0.97

00:55:11.240 i hope that you move on to better fortunes random name may i have that please thank you sir

00:55:17.400 um so this segment i wasn't sure what to title it but i went with you are born in debt

00:55:26.820 because this is a fundamental truth about society and since we are unfortunately living in a secular

00:55:33.840 age and people like to start with the science, I thought that I would also start with the science.

00:55:39.320 And I've got a couple of papers here that you could look into, showing basically that when

00:55:44.660 a woman is pregnant, if she's exposed to a very large amount of sudden threat, acute

00:55:52.040 stress, not stress, not threat, sorry, if she's subjected to acute stress or if she is

00:55:58.880 subjected to very chronic stress, say from an invasion, say from chaos, say from the village

00:56:05.740 burning down, there is a tendency to naturally miscarry and to naturally lose her baby. And the

00:56:13.320 same is true when it comes to breastfeeding. When women are exposed to acute stress during 0.89

00:56:19.120 breastfeeding, sometimes they just can no longer produce milk. And this is a natural survival

00:56:26.500 mechanism for women because having a baby is an enormous burden and it is enormously taxing on 1.00

00:56:34.340 women and women's bodies and so if the woman doesn't feel safe enough she will naturally 1.00

00:56:40.400 lose the baby even if the baby has is has been delivered by basically cutting off the milk 0.96

00:56:47.280 and the reason i mentioned this is because to there's a point to be made here if you are born

00:56:54.660 and make it through to the age of two

00:56:59.040 where you're no longer dependent on breast milk,

00:57:01.980 that means that you owe society a debt.

00:57:05.560 You are literally born into debt.

00:57:08.340 You wouldn't have been born otherwise

00:57:10.640 if there wasn't a community around you

00:57:13.680 taking care of your mother and protecting her

00:57:16.800 and keeping her not stress-free, obviously,

00:57:20.640 but at a low enough level of stress

00:57:23.200 for your life to continue.

00:57:24.660 but also the just the material conditions like yeah she was she was fed clothed housed and able 0.67

00:57:31.280 to produce the milk that you that nourished you through your childhood you were kept safe by

00:57:36.920 presumably your mother and your father you know well if you have a father who actually is involved

00:57:41.400 in your life that's an additional source of debt well yeah because you know you could be

00:57:46.120 in a polygamous uh setup where your father doesn't even know that one of his wives is pregnant 0.53

00:57:52.260 uh in in a standard nuclear family um this is why i could never get along with any kind of

00:57:59.680 objectivism yes the the cardinal thought being you don't owe anyone anything it's like no i don't

00:58:05.580 agree with that i mean you you until you become an adult yes you don't realize how much that you

00:58:13.720 have relied upon everyone else's goodwill around you yes and the resources not just the resources

00:58:18.740 though but it's the um the things that you imbibe from the environment around you just by

00:58:25.640 conversations yes just by like watching people interact and learning how things are done so you

00:58:31.940 yourself can get along like the idea that you can come out of this long process and be like right i

00:58:36.420 don't know anyone anything no you are the recipient of a i mean and legacy yes inheritance yeah but

00:58:44.420 it's like and i'm just talking about the very top layer of this inheritance which is actually at the

00:58:50.400 very top of a pyramid that goes back tens of thousands i mean right back to the beginning

00:58:54.900 of the earth you know the life on earth however you feel that's been created for us but the point

00:59:00.280 is like the everything that happens but obviously but the the point is everything that happened

00:59:06.900 and you know maybe just go back you know 500 years or whatever you know all of these things are

00:59:12.380 a building process about it get us to this point think about it this way think about it this way

00:59:18.420 if basically you've learned anything somebody has taught it to you yeah if you know anything

00:59:25.240 other than basic grunts and the need to feed yourself and relieve yourself uh somebody has

00:59:30.920 taught it to you and you have sat there receiving from society uh an inheritance that has been

00:59:38.680 passed down generations if you've got any kind of talent if you know how to play an instrument

00:59:43.320 or lay bricks or you're a really good painter or you're a good architect or engineer or whatever

00:59:50.880 it is that you happen to be or you could be you you were not self-taught contrary to

00:59:57.920 expectations to the extent that you were self-taught you learned from others and not just

01:00:04.240 even if you didn't right even if you were like yeah i just went and read books in the library

01:00:07.580 okay how did the library get there exactly how did literacy get there exactly how did exactly

01:00:12.420 wrote those books yeah yeah pass down that knowledge to you but even even then even if

01:00:17.120 you're like yeah okay i didn't read any books and i just went out and did things for myself it's like

01:00:21.020 okay but how did you survive to be able to do this like everything you are in a web of obligations

01:00:27.380 exactly you are in a web of debts and gratitude you you have inherited all of these things you

01:00:32.880 know exactly what what do you do i i went out into the woods and like started a fire with my

01:00:37.700 flint and or whatever with a lighter so okay but then i discovered the alphabet yeah exactly and

01:00:42.460 who made who made the steel knife that you would cut the wood with or whatever you know like

01:00:47.040 you didn't invent iron working mate you know every we are the inheritors of a massive chain of events

01:00:53.720 exactly and if you um if you embrace that instead of refuting it you find yourself living a life of

01:01:00.480 far more purpose than you ever would as someone who tries actively to live an atomized existence

01:01:07.380 exactly without regard to other people but also you're not living in denial of the truth

01:01:11.580 well there's a liberal fiction of the atomic individual who's a self-made self-authored

01:01:16.360 person it's just not true exactly and so when it's like oh actually and but you can see why

01:01:22.100 it would create this kind of tension in a person's mind where it's like well now i have a lot to live

01:01:27.140 up to and i can never live up to what i'm claiming yes and i'm also denying all of these other things

01:01:32.780 that are true so as soon as someone says well don't you think you owe that person something

01:01:36.260 and you you've got to now deny that you've got to deny what it is to be a normal person

01:01:40.480 and now you're you know you're you're in a weird place where whereas if you say you know actually

01:01:45.180 i'm going to be a bit more humble about this and i do need to you know help my mom move house or

01:01:50.760 whatever it is she's doing you know i do need to spend a bit of my time helping other people

01:01:54.380 because everyone helped me to get to this point exactly and suddenly you realize oh actually i

01:01:59.560 feel like i belong somewhere i don't feel like i'm out of time and out of place i don't feel

01:02:04.500 like an arrogant person i feel actually quite tranquil and at ease with the things around me

01:02:09.600 and absolutely true absolutely agreed um and you know you were taught things by people you were

01:02:17.760 given an inheritance by society recognizing that helps you reconcile with the people around you

01:02:23.520 and helps you live a humbler life that is more fulfilling

01:02:27.040 and that is more in tune with your community

01:02:31.160 and with your society.

01:02:33.060 But there's another point here,

01:02:34.600 which is that if you're born

01:02:35.680 in a relatively advanced society,

01:02:38.380 a society that's produced a Shakespeare,

01:02:40.620 that's produced a Horst, that's produced Dickens,

01:02:43.000 that's produced Goethe, that's produced whatever, Brunel,

01:02:48.020 you owe an even greater debt

01:02:50.360 than if you were born in a society of hunter gatherers you are standing on an even on an

01:02:57.980 even greater achievement you are standing on the shoulders of taller giants and you therefore owe

01:03:03.700 much more to that society because they risked more as well because they risked more because

01:03:09.860 they achieved more because they passed more on to you because of all three of these things

01:03:14.560 so you owe these debts particularly to your own ancestors to the society that you know

01:03:21.900 you don't owe them to random outsiders it is good to have a general sense of christian charity

01:03:29.920 it is good to take care of the stranger in your midst it is good to have this basic christian

01:03:35.780 decency towards people you do not know fair enough in the abstract right that's generally

01:03:41.380 yeah it's nice to be that but in the very specific particular you use not just that not to the extent

01:03:47.500 that you infringe on the natural law that says your first debt are to your family neighbors

01:03:55.540 wider community so yes you have these you have this christian attitude and you should have it

01:04:03.260 but not to the extent that it infringes the christian idea of an order of love and of an

01:04:10.660 order of duties even if you don't want to make it into a religious dictum it's just true that you

01:04:16.200 have personal relations with your family with your neighbors with your local community like the

01:04:21.140 people you know your friends they do actually whether you you know even if you try to deny it

01:04:27.500 you are still the revealed expression of your behavior is going to be showing a preference

01:04:32.400 to these people exactly you can you can claim universality all you want but it's not going to

01:04:37.260 be true and on this universality there is a particular point which is that the strangers

01:04:44.680 that are in the west uh know perfectly well that their debts are to their ancestors which is why

01:04:53.080 they send remittances home which is why they send remittances home which is why they refight all of 0.75

01:05:00.160 their old battles at here be it say the fighting between the pakistanis and the indians in leicester

01:05:06.800 40 and 42 trillion that the british empire owes indian women who have grown up here forever like

01:05:12.460 or the fight over the middle east between the jews and the muslims and all of these arguments

01:05:17.660 they know that basic that the other communities have this deeply ingrained in themselves this

01:05:23.620 idea of owing debts to their ancestors and to their actual communities that's why these that's 0.96

01:05:30.300 why there's no shame and scamming i was gonna say right the best example of this is the somali

01:05:35.360 community in minnesota right perfect example it's it's the best example because they they i mean 0.91

01:05:39.600 i'm not impressed with the inheritance that they've received but they are insane about it like

01:05:44.640 where ilhan omar is like yeah our president the somali president and do everything they can

01:05:50.000 to set up their scam networks of somalis to send money home that's why rishi sunak is part of the

01:05:57.200 uh indian british friendship association or business association or whatever it is

01:06:01.280 and that's why kemi berenog speaks about the enemies of the yoruba that's why she she would

01:06:07.300 say something about her ethnic enemies so we are allowed ethnic enemies you apparently apparently

01:06:13.840 according to the conservative you can even see like the rape gangs as an expression of

01:06:19.360 a communal conflict yeah this is them taking revenge for colonization i mean and you see

01:06:26.940 some people online actually saying it no the in the in the court transcripts where the guy who

01:06:32.940 was released recently and everyone's complaining that he's been released in in the court he said 0.97

01:06:38.440 we are the superior race you whites are like inferior dogs or something like that and it's 0.93

01:06:43.240 our right to be able to do this too and it's just like okay like nobody in britain is thinking in 0.96

01:06:50.040 this way anymore right whatever whatever you were thinking of from 300 years ago when britain first

01:06:54.780 arrived in india like that's that's that mindset you know right there and and even then that wasn't

01:07:01.240 the mindset of the british towards them no it wasn't but but there was definitely going to be

01:07:05.140 a racial superiority there will always be racial conflict there will always be ethnic conflict

01:07:11.060 racial conflict religious conflict but it plays out differently in different cultures and there

01:07:15.680 are different limits set by different religions that don't that are not the same and that don't

01:07:22.280 lead to the same consequences so with these communities they understand that they are

01:07:27.300 fulfilling a generational compact and part of that generational compact is making sure that

01:07:32.980 their people win against you because of the grievances that they had against your ancestors

01:07:39.360 it is very self-evident that this is happening and the claims to the contrary are not tenable

01:07:48.760 uh why does david lammy want reparations david lammy would be a much poorer person if he was in

01:07:56.440 guiana or ghana or whatever it was he would not have the life that he currently has he would

01:08:03.900 never have become deputy bloody prime minister of anywhere would he he would have never become

01:08:07.580 deputy prime minister but to the country that gave him everything he still wants reparations

01:08:13.580 why he's living out his own pact with his ancestors and the the lack of our and that it

01:08:20.740 really is like that's how they um determine who is worthy of the concern of the state and who is not 0.83

01:08:28.320 as well yep it's because the the white british and everywhere else don't consider themselves

01:08:33.800 they're they're completely liberal in their metaphysical conception of the universe they

01:08:37.980 don't consider themselves to have this pact with their own ancestors yeah the government does

01:08:42.740 nothing for them yes it doesn't care like if you want to explain the boomer mindset the boomer

01:08:48.300 mindset in its worst extremes is the idea that actually i don't owe my kids anything yeah because

01:08:54.140 i don't owe my parents anything because i don't owe my parents anything it is this total separation

01:08:58.860 it is the freedom from their own civilization exactly that's what pensions are yes you should

01:09:04.140 be looking after your parents exactly as they looked after their parents and and by contrast

01:09:09.280 abortion is freedom from the future and freedom from consequences yeah so it is this broken

01:09:15.680 relationship with time which is the foundation of the relationship with god right that that that

01:09:20.180 is the key element that i will sacrifice today and god will give me something tomorrow and i will

01:09:26.860 carry the cross today and tomorrow god is going to give me something for carrying my cross this

01:09:32.240 is the foundational relationship this is the idea of sacrifice you break that generational pact you

01:09:37.380 break the relationship with god you end up in this insane degenerate society that these are

01:09:43.260 natural consequences and what this means is that um prejudice actually is a good thing

01:09:50.340 which people never want to hear burke point here here's my defense of prejudice i like that

01:09:56.500 defense well uh the master had a great defense of uh i've not read the master okay uh i haven't

01:10:02.880 read edmund burke so well yeah you know i try not to read protestants no i'm joking

01:10:07.080 but this idea here is that prejudice means that your ancestor is so a problem

01:10:15.220 understood the solution for it and built that solution into your own mindset so that you would

01:10:23.460 never forget it that's burke's it's not not exactly the same but it's um the the tradition

01:10:31.220 of habit has its prejudices because they are they are solutions to problems that you've gotten

01:10:37.580 exactly exactly and that is what tradition is it is basically this compact with previous

01:10:43.600 generations it is the idea that there is also as chesterton put it a democracy of the dead

01:10:49.880 that just as as as he i'm paraphrasing here uh okay you agree that your groomsmen should have

01:10:57.320 a vote, fair enough, but so should your father. And so should your grandfather and his grandfather

01:11:03.580 and on and on the chain. You are bound in this relationship where your role in society is to

01:11:10.440 forge a new link in this chain, one that can sustain the future and carry the past.

01:11:16.680 Think of it as a castle. Your role in society isn't to demolish the old castle and try to build

01:11:23.280 a new one made of glass and steel your role is to add one more layer of brick or fix the leaking

01:11:29.580 roof or upgrade the plumbing or what your role is to add incrementally to this process of building

01:11:37.200 a society and you have to do it because you owe it to your ancestors and your ancestors did it 1.00

01:11:43.920 for you without ever having met you yeah you are the recipient of an inheritance yes this is burke's

01:11:50.980 great chain of being where it's literally a connection between not just the entire civilization

01:11:55.980 itself exactly top to bottom but also front to back so those in the past and those in the future

01:12:01.620 we are all connected and we're all he calls it a compact or something and it's exactly as you're

01:12:07.300 describing rudyard kipling is very strong on this as well he just talks about when it comes to

01:12:11.560 warfare that you could just take you know a tudor uh navy man you know and just like plonk him into

01:12:17.720 world war one and he within a few hours of explaining it to him he will understand the

01:12:22.580 geopolitical interest of england because there is a continuity there yes of like foreign policy for

01:12:27.740 britain yeah and who who its allies are and like how it trades people off so it goes from the most

01:12:33.020 trivial like you know minute things right up to questions of high state but it's also why the

01:12:38.920 questions of high state are actually uh worthy because i mean for example um out today i didn't

01:12:44.860 include it in anything but i saw there's a poll that came out today if britain went to war only

01:12:49.140 six percent of people would volunteer and only 15 percent of people would allow themselves to be

01:12:53.600 called up yep it's like uh what go back to oh there we go right there we go right oh so 14

01:12:59.300 would serve if they were called up right and imagine imagine what those numbers were like

01:13:04.320 in world war one this is a country that is unloved is a generous way of putting it this is a country

01:13:11.080 that is very, very unloved.

01:13:12.720 Because that compact has been broken.

01:13:15.500 Exactly right.

01:13:16.060 But at the beginning of World War I,

01:13:17.900 that compact was probably as strong

01:13:19.120 as it has ever been in this country, right?

01:13:22.040 And in there, millions people volunteered.

01:13:24.660 Yeah.

01:13:25.160 Millions.

01:13:25.860 You couldn't get that now.

01:13:27.180 You just couldn't get it.

01:13:28.560 Yeah.

01:13:29.060 And it's also absolutely awful as well

01:13:32.480 because, I mean,

01:13:33.180 I think we shouldn't have fought

01:13:34.600 World War I personally.

01:13:35.880 But the point is the fact that

01:13:37.180 people bought into,

01:13:39.080 could buy into,

01:13:39.960 The fact that there was some sort of connection of duty between government and citizen, together, and also as well that the establishment turned around and said, well, if you fight in this, we'll widen the franchise and we'll give you the vote.

01:13:54.280 It's also, even if this is not in your interest, we will find a way to make it in your interest.

01:13:59.640 Whereas all you're getting, if you just go back to where it was talking about those statistics, was the fact it's like, oh, well, if there's an invasion, there's been an invasion for decades and you've been telling us to ignore it. 0.57

01:14:10.760 That was Morgoth's point in a tweet, and it was a damn good one.

01:14:14.020 And it ultimately comes down to the fact that it's like, because they keep saying to us, well, would you fight for us?

01:14:19.480 Would you fight for us?

01:14:20.400 It's like, well, what would you give us in return?

01:14:23.920 What would you give us in return?

01:14:25.580 like persuade me that it's in my interest to die for your geopolitical ambition i view the

01:14:31.720 government and the the people who would be calling me up as the primary enemy of the country yeah

01:14:36.420 in an enemy army are currently ravaging the land yep i mean why would i fight for this

01:14:41.960 that's what you get when you don't understand these basic realities yeah the other thing you

01:14:46.680 get is this kind of nonsense where conservatives celebrate at fox news the acquisition of children

01:14:53.940 yeah yeah denying the chain between mother and child denying that relationship and pretending

01:15:03.920 that children are essentially for sale well it's it's also essentially um embracing the liberal

01:15:10.580 victim of everyone being a self-made man and everything being interchangeable exactly everything

01:15:15.600 is the the product of the will yes no you that will never be your baby right exactly it's not

01:15:21.060 possible for that to be your baby and so if you want to live in the liberal delusion that oh yeah

01:15:24.920 elliot page is also a man and you know peter nyong'o is also helen of troy and why can't you

01:15:31.960 become that baby's father yeah more or less it's exactly the same principle and it's you you end up

01:15:38.240 with a society that is so thoroughly dehumanized that it's genuinely scary i had a link here yes

01:15:46.700 basically um where a child a young woman finds out that an older woman had donated eggs

01:15:57.820 and was her biological mother and she reached out reaches out to the mother and this is the

01:16:06.980 reply that she gets i'm going to be very direct with you this is a breach of privacy egg donation

01:16:13.340 is a confidential anonymous business transaction life is a business transaction this this is this

01:16:21.860 is this is the claim here no thought to that person growing up throughout their life thinking

01:16:27.960 who is my real mother just all these questions that you would naturally have in your head you 1.00

01:16:32.660 know that are part of well this is the kind of woman who would say that basically be a decent 0.79

01:16:36.860 human being uh protect migrant rights uh that are down yeah you know but also like it really is a

01:16:46.120 perversion of things that were done traditionally for good reasons right so this as you say this

01:16:52.480 has just been reduced this is a business transaction this is con i mean literally she

01:16:56.220 says an anonymous business transaction that's what it is okay but that's not what that should

01:16:59.840 have been like because uh traditionally adoption is a completely normal thing right completely

01:17:04.600 normal and completely laudable because it always comes in a situation where there is a child who

01:17:09.880 needs a family to grow up in right they are you know their parents have died or something like

01:17:14.700 that because disease or war or something like that and so this child needs some help and someone

01:17:19.300 right okay i'll bring you to my family i've raised you as my own they know that they're not actually

01:17:23.600 of that family so you don't get messages like this and it's understood this was done for charity

01:17:27.600 this is done for kindness oh adoption is an enormous good yeah absolutely on every single

01:17:34.260 level this is not this is the conversion of charity into economic transition and there's

01:17:42.360 nothing charitable here no a life was created artificially and the daughter feels completely

01:17:47.700 disconnected and she says i feel utterly disconnected from my own mother and she's

01:17:52.280 reaching out to this woman hoping to find a substitute mother that she's connected to even

01:17:56.020 that other mother would have given birth to her right like if she got the egg possibly yes an egg

01:18:01.500 yes like she carried and gave birth to her and even then she feels disconnected from her

01:18:06.520 so this is the society that you get when you have these connections broken you get things like

01:18:13.140 lgbt conservatives as if that could ever be a conservative idea as if dismantling the family

01:18:20.380 could ever be a serious idea and what you get instead is this society that is based on rights 0.86

01:18:27.220 rights rights everybody has rights everybody has claims against society this is what rights today

01:18:32.360 means i have the right to free health care from the nhs i have a right to a free education i have

01:18:38.340 a right to a pension i have a right to all of this but nobody has any obligations nobody has

01:18:42.540 any obligations nobody has any obligations i actually wrote about this an essay on uh on one

01:18:49.120 of my sites uh called against human rights basically yeah based on that idea you are born

01:18:55.900 in debt you enter society owing society your very existence and every talent that you have

01:19:04.900 every skill that you have every way of earning a decent living that you have this all comes from

01:19:12.240 others and has been passed on to you this is why you're not a hunter-gatherer

01:19:16.920 you owe society something you enter it with obligations you don't enter it with claims

01:19:23.500 so this is and you owe your own people far more than you owe strangers because they are the ones

01:19:31.280 who actually taught you things you know that's why you don't burn your mother when your father

01:19:36.560 dies that's why you don't have human sacrifice that's why you don't i'm going to say something

01:19:44.140 that i want or didn't want to say you owe society society doesn't owe you and unless you fulfill

01:19:51.660 you're part of that it owed you it gave you existence it does owe you when you're a baby

01:19:57.840 you're a child and now you're an adult it owes you nothing you owe it because that's how this works

01:20:03.500 and it owes you that because society owes a debt to its ancestors to perpetuate itself yes

01:20:09.020 it paid its debt by creating you it's time for you to pay your own debt to the future

01:20:15.780 in the way that things the the natural order of the universe is and that's all i wanted to say

01:20:21.760 and if you want to see what should be done in this insane world that we live in well i would

01:20:26.980 strongly recommend checking out islander uh issue number six there's there's nothing more

01:20:31.800 heretical than the things we're writing in this magazine genuinely good uh based ape here has got

01:20:40.500 a great comment and i i think right so don't take this personally for us right all right for those

01:20:44.640 of us who are not uh religious yes right he i agree with based ape here right that god is best

01:20:50.220 thought of as the personification of the moral order of the universe the rules that just are

01:20:53.780 the same as the laws of the physics of the laws of physics yes um and that's that's a great way

01:20:58.520 for um no i i fully agree with it yeah yeah but but the thing is without the actual um sort of

01:21:04.260 personification of god like as a as a thinking agent in the sort of c.s lewis tau framework as

01:21:11.540 in the what you are relative to what the universe is there is an objective series of moral laws

01:21:17.360 you know so like that's uh for a secularist to understand it's like oh it's i can't just do

01:21:22.820 whatever i want and no because you'll see that you'll get consequences that are negative and

01:21:27.680 there was a particular order that you should have lived through to get positive consequences that's

01:21:32.660 my argument would be is if you keep it at the conceptual phase you have no way of passing it

01:21:38.740 down and you must maintain it at the religious phase including the ritual including the sacraments

01:21:46.040 for and just arguing from a purely secular perspective you know you gave me a secular

01:21:51.680 argument i'm giving you a secular argument back uh from that secular perspective if you just

01:21:56.860 reduce it to a series of ideas it can't it can't be passed on you can't achieve what you want with

01:22:03.480 a series of ideas you must take the leap of faith but for those people who haven't it's still that

01:22:10.400 i think the proper way of understanding what religious people are trying to tell you yes

01:22:13.960 yes yes yes so i accept that i accept that all right uh let's play the video comments and harry

01:22:19.980 oh or is it jack

01:22:49.980 where was this that looks wholesome yeah that looks like a great day out my youngest son would

01:22:57.540 have loved yeah yeah he loves tractors and trains and all that sort of thing

01:23:02.020 oh the lotus eaters lads disagree on whether venus or mars is the more ripe target to conquer

01:23:09.860 ignorant of the third option olaf stapledon's the last and first men speculates on two billion years

01:23:15.660 of future human history spreading among the stars to escape the limits of any one planet

01:23:19.680 in his repost c.s lewis wrote the ransom trilogy also known as the space trilogy in the first book

01:23:25.600 of which satanic character western harangues the inhabitants of the planet malacandra that man is

01:23:30.320 destined to spread among the stars and destroy everything and everyone in his path to safeguard

01:23:35.020 his manifest destiny and sounding every inch a socialist that is that's really good i actually

01:23:41.800 i covered with nick dixon on chronicles uh out of the silent planet and instantly i was just uh

01:23:48.200 reading. I read the whole of Perilandra

01:23:50.600 just yesterday as well,

01:23:52.400 ready for the next Chronicles that I'm going to do

01:23:54.380 with Nick. So we are slowly working through

01:23:56.680 C.S. Lewis's sci-fi

01:23:58.340 trilogy. So go over to Chronicles

01:24:00.360 to check that out. Have you ever read the last one?

01:24:02.260 Some people were wondering why Salman

01:24:04.580 Rushdie's satanic

01:24:06.200 verses were being included in

01:24:08.140 banned book circles of the left.

01:24:10.160 You have to keep in mind that

01:24:12.060 he has always sided with the left

01:24:14.420 in almost every cause they

01:24:16.320 pursue and it's basically a third worldist and even like margaret thatcher back in the 80s was

01:24:22.520 like remarking that she didn't understand why the tories wanted to protect this guy so much 0.56

01:24:26.860 because he's such an ungrateful bastard to them yeah he's not a sympathetic guy and then he got

01:24:33.740 mounted yeah yeah i left this in the siege of harleck castle in 1468 during the war of the 0.98

01:24:40.900 roses that supposedly the song men of harleck was created surprising this castle was ever taken at

01:24:47.240 all but in the four sieges it was put under three of them were successful like was the last castle

01:24:53.580 to fall in the english civil war it took nine months for the parliamentarians to finally capture

01:24:58.680 it here's some stone cannonballs that were fired at harleck castle during one of his many sieges

01:25:04.940 it's a hell of an impressive castle yeah i i went there last year actually yeah it's staggering

01:25:12.700 it's um really well preserved as well and uh yeah got a lovely i've just got like men of harleck

01:25:18.300 in zulu just raging in my head now uh yeah definitely go visit harleck

01:25:22.980 uh any more video comments jack okay okay

01:25:29.300 california refugee says i know how to end rough sleeping deport all the invaders taking up the

01:25:36.080 houses uh remigration really is to fix everything but the thing is it's actually not like in for

01:25:41.620 when it comes to homelessness because homelessness is not actually a feature of a lack of housing

01:25:46.260 homelessness is a feature of drug addicts who choose to be drug addicts right so it's just i

01:25:51.220 mean very rare cases when it's just no housing available very rare cases you but even then we've

01:25:58.360 got like uh a system set up so if you are actually homeless you don't have to sleep rough you can go

01:26:03.600 to wherever it is and actually you know not be on the streets um the labor government officially

01:26:09.940 repealed the 200 year old vagrancy act on 29th of june 2026 i forgot about this it's one of

01:26:15.400 keir starmer's last acts wasn't yes so yeah yeah no it's legal to be a vagrant now oh brilliant

01:26:19.800 brilliant and and i love that i was like yeah i'm gonna get i'm gonna it's almost like keir

01:26:24.900 starboard just did a series of things to snake andy burnham right yeah no i'm gonna make it legal

01:26:29.180 to be vagrant now so good luck andy outside downing street specifically yeah yeah good luck

01:26:33.540 with you um but they did manage to ban steve bray uh yeah because he's being a pest yeah yeah yeah

01:26:41.260 never has been more aptly named see here speak says uh they're going to allow it and stop it

01:26:47.400 all at the same time well andy burnham's gonna have to put it back in i guess you know um the

01:26:53.220 vibes i'm getting here as they're likely being the collective captain of the titanic and

01:26:56.640 repeatedly hitting the iceberg yeah sort of reversing and then crashing back into it right

01:27:02.240 yeah pete says uh young white white lads hanging around parks benches and shops socializing with 0.95

01:27:08.520 nowhere better to go the left screech chavs hoodies plebs or experiencing orders of magnitude worse 0.88

01:27:13.120 left i have no steady demographic change yeah i know it's terrible isn't it um derek says uh 0.92

01:27:18.180 manchester goes from joy division to new order to drill rap oh god such a degradation also

01:27:23.140 as well because when you look at one of my favorite bands the smiths and morrissey you look at what

01:27:27.480 the smiths were putting out in the 80s it was obviously music that was responding to the

01:27:32.180 the post-industrial slump that manchester now found itself in the fact the fact that it was

01:27:37.820 looking dirty the fact that it was looking run down but you know morrissey like like a romantic

01:27:42.600 poet right like like a like a william blake or a shelly he's just going well yeah but let's try

01:27:48.720 find some sort of beauty in this place

01:27:50.800 because there is, you know,

01:27:52.480 in the degradation. You can't

01:27:54.660 find that now. You couldn't do that now.

01:27:56.860 It's too dire.

01:27:59.260 Apparently Josh has just announced he's

01:28:00.640 officially joining Restore Britain's policy team.

01:28:02.780 Ah, first I've heard of it. Well done, mate.

01:28:04.960 Yeah. Omar

01:28:06.580 says, when charity becomes so great there's no

01:28:08.660 hope to repay it, many become resentful

01:28:10.540 to protect their ego. We have

01:28:12.180 a lot of debt from our ancestors, 1.00

01:28:14.240 but it must bite especially hard for those that come here

01:28:16.720 and are extended the same grace. The loss

01:28:18.600 is at is incalculable now this is a great point by omar right i i i've been trying to find a way of

01:28:24.600 like memetically getting across to people is that every interaction between a british person or an

01:28:31.940 american or a white westerner and a foreigner is always loaded with the histories of those two

01:28:38.420 civilizations right like for example you always talk about the french yes right and so any any

01:28:45.200 In a positive light.

01:28:46.300 Sure, sure.

01:28:46.680 The only one in the office.

01:28:47.900 Sure.

01:28:48.220 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:28:50.660 It's really true.

01:28:51.620 Not only am I a foreigner,

01:28:52.800 I also like that I'm French.

01:28:54.220 It gets pretty heated,

01:28:55.280 ladies and gentlemen,

01:28:56.160 at times.

01:28:58.860 And that's fine

01:29:00.420 if you've got a positive view

01:29:01.640 of these things. 1.00

01:29:02.480 But what if you are an Indian

01:29:04.040 who has a negative view

01:29:05.040 of these things, right?

01:29:06.280 Every interaction 0.62

01:29:07.160 with a white Westerner 0.71

01:29:09.220 is charged with the history

01:29:11.300 upon which the entire interaction

01:29:13.580 became possible.

01:29:14.740 and so there's there's not really any way of the white westerners being like okay right empires

01:29:21.440 are over we're sorry about you know the 19th century and whatnot uh the 20th century has

01:29:25.940 taught us a lesson and therefore we're all just equals now in the liberal end of history and

01:29:29.780 everything's wonderful like okay you can divorce yourself from your own history if you want you

01:29:34.860 can't he can't and he doesn't even understand why he would he's not been giving any incentive to

01:29:39.840 yeah exactly what would be the purpose of it yeah you know why would why would he need to why would

01:29:43.640 want to and he would think of himself as betraying his own ancestors by doing it right and so if

01:29:49.380 you're going to be if you're going to act as if you're not the inheritor of this great tradition

01:29:53.440 well he's not going to respect you i mean this is one of the things the grooming gangs are like

01:29:57.880 oh yeah they're not even christian right they the if the white girls had been good christians

01:30:02.680 probably wouldn't have happened to the extent that it had but one of the justifications they

01:30:06.460 gave themselves was oh they they're not part of any tradition they're not part of any history

01:30:10.940 so they're just like you know street rats you know like you're just they're not they themselves

01:30:16.780 are not worthy and it's like you can't stop them from looking at you like this so you have to

01:30:22.880 basically become the westerner they think you are you have to be a really enemy exactly in order to

01:30:28.200 protect yourself yeah have to go through this you have to become it um and so the loss in is that

01:30:34.840 is going to have to be something they have to deal with like sorry yeah that's why uh 0.89

01:30:40.820 I have a bit of a soft spot for some Africans. 1.00

01:30:44.740 Oh, yeah. 1.00

01:30:48.640 Going from no wheel, no domesticated animals

01:30:52.560 to living in a Western society,

01:30:54.900 the shock of that is insane. 1.00

01:30:57.720 You know, what's weird is a lot of actual African Africans 1.00

01:31:00.880 are all right. 1.00

01:31:02.020 Yeah.

01:31:02.160 A lot of them are actually quite well-mannered,

01:31:04.340 like very nice people,

01:31:05.560 and are actually really grateful to be here, right? 1.00

01:31:08.120 And I'm not saying I want billions of Africans or anything. 1.00

01:31:10.820 but like the ones that like went through the system didn't just break in 0.99

01:31:15.480 because like,

01:31:16.320 you know,

01:31:16.520 they realized that they could take advantage of us.

01:31:18.320 The ones who actually like went through the system and then got jobs,

01:31:20.680 you know,

01:31:20.940 you see quite a lot of them around and you know,

01:31:23.720 they're there with their wives and their kids and they're,

01:31:25.660 you know,

01:31:26.200 wearing a suit doing their job.

01:31:27.720 And you think,

01:31:28.200 okay,

01:31:28.700 I don't hate this guy.

01:31:29.660 You know,

01:31:30.040 I don't,

01:31:30.340 I don't,

01:31:30.640 you know,

01:31:30.800 I don't necessarily want millions of people here,

01:31:32.240 but like,

01:31:32.860 he's not the problem,

01:31:34.260 right?

01:31:34.820 The guy that I do.

01:31:35.460 The problem is the system that brought him here.

01:31:37.000 Sure.

01:31:37.400 Yeah.

01:31:37.520 One of the guys that I do religious studies is actually,

01:31:40.820 ugandan yeah yeah and he's much better read than i am and is probably a much better christian

01:31:46.960 so a lot of them are just like very personably very polite and very friendly right in the you

01:31:52.340 know they're well well socialized people you know but it's obvious that the government doesn't care

01:31:58.720 and doesn't choose to distinguish between no no a decent person and a person who pays to get people 0.65

01:32:04.180 traveling to call sort of actual monsters yeah and i come here and kill our children but they're 0.68

01:32:08.820 all brown aren't they it's like yeah but that's not sufficient mate and um just a uh honorable 0.74
