00:00:16.120Wonderful. Well, today, ladies and gentlemen, we're going to be talking to you all about, well, whether or not the right really can actually unite.
00:00:24.240We're then going to be talking about how experimenting on children is evil, actually,
00:00:29.300because apparently some people in the modern world seem to have lost this obvious universal truism, lost sight of it.
00:00:38.060And then we're going to be talking about how Britain has a food and water problem.
00:00:43.100So, yeah, something very technical and important as well to discuss there at the end.
00:00:48.040in terms of announcements before we go through the segments uh latest chronicles is now out ladies
00:00:53.600and gentlemen rory and i as well as making the terrific uh islander magazine rory has also
00:01:00.660contributed now on chronicles and we've talked all about child harold's pilgrimage by lord byron
00:01:06.960a poetic work that was basically the foundation of the byronic hero keys in the fact that lord
00:01:13.740Byron was the author of it, I suppose, but also as well, he has some wonderful things as you go
00:01:19.280through each part of this poem. And Byron is there looking around war-torn Spain in the middle of the
00:01:24.400Peninsula War. He's looking at Greece under the boot of the Ottomans. He's looking at Waterloo
00:01:29.540and he's looking at Italy in a time of just those early fermentations of Italian nationalism. So
00:01:36.860we're going to explore this entire poem as the weeks roll on because it's incredibly
00:01:42.240impressive as a piece of literature and also philosophically, well, very, very rich. So do
00:01:49.480please go and check that out. Also as well, it is Happy Monday, everyone. Because it's Monday,
00:01:55.280it means you get a realpolitik. And so, Firas, you're going to be talking all about what we just
00:02:01.840saw last week in sweater yeah explaining the actual origins of it uh dispelling some of the
00:02:07.720conspiracy theories and maybe we might have time to talk a little about the uh Iran war right okay
00:02:13.640great well as always do go and tune into Firas's show those and gentlemen it's a great way to stay
00:02:18.820informed all right then so um right we have been in a position for many many years now where we
00:02:27.540of being governed by traitors. Everywhere you look, it seems that everyone who has just a colossal
00:02:33.700knee-jerk reaction to the survival of Britain and is like, actually, I don't want that.
00:02:40.600Just they always seem to rise to the top. They always seem to get into power. They always
00:02:45.000demonstrate just the greatest amount of cowardice when it comes to discussing the actual issues
00:02:51.460that are existential for Britain and her people and whether or not we will actually survive this
00:02:56.940century, something that I often just come back to. And ultimately, with what seemed to be the
00:03:03.220collapse of the Tory party come the last election, everyone was really hoping that the easiest
00:03:09.800option available to us would be that Nigel Farage and the Reform UK would understand the moment,
00:03:16.380they would understand the anxieties that the British people are currently feeling,
00:03:20.680and that actually this new power would be able to totally displace the Tories from politics
00:03:26.660forever, just put the nail in the coffin of their party and basically cast it out as one that
00:03:34.100committed the greatest betrayal upon the British people. However, as time went on,
00:03:41.180it became more and more apparent that without some mechanism even further to the right,
00:03:46.940whether it be in the form of another party or a pressure group, that the Reform UK were not going
00:03:53.660to hold to the messaging that they really needed to hold to when it comes to all manner
00:03:59.360of things, such as demography, whether it came to justice over the question of the rape
00:04:05.160gangs, and so many other things besides, right?
00:04:08.240There seemed to be some equivocating, and none of this was helped at all, as we found
00:04:13.740that councillors like Boris Wavers were being appointed as councillors, and there just seemed
00:04:20.480to be a real fundamental unwillingness to understand the moment. So everyone was repulsed
00:04:26.440by the Tories and along came Rupert Lowe and Restore Britain. And this was something that
00:04:31.960in February got us all really, really excited. And still to this, I'm very much committed towards,
00:04:37.980I think that Marlon did a wonderful job in Manchester, getting 46,000 votes in that city
00:04:44.120after having a party that's only been up since February on its legs, right? That's nothing to
00:04:49.920turn its nose up at um and also as well you have the fact that but ultimately so when i was in
00:04:56.640maker field right one of the things that just really was a great pity about the entire thing
00:05:01.920is that i spent a lot of time out there with restore britain canvases and they were good people
00:05:07.540they were good people they were patriotic people they were ordinary people they were people who
00:05:12.920just had their heart in the right place and you know what i also spoke to a lot of reform
00:05:17.320canvas as well it still is out there as well and you know what i got similar feelings about them
00:05:22.600as well and the entire thing is that you just feel this great sense of tragedy that these are
00:05:28.280people who for all intents and purposes should be working on the same side here and when we wake up
00:05:33.720in the morning and we're surrounded by all of the issues in modern britain that it's now simply
00:05:39.000impossible to ignore these are things that rankle us all and things that we really desperately need
00:05:44.560to see fixed in order for Britain to become prosperous again. The problem that we, of course,
00:05:51.200have is that Nigel Farage has basically, well, he set out the fact that if you're slightly to the
00:05:58.820right of me, you have no place in reform, in Reform UK. And so while Nigel Farage talks about
00:06:05.920having building a broad church in the Grand Coalition, what we actually see is that that
00:06:10.980broad church is only limited to ex-Tory ministers and people who have already had a tried and failed
00:06:18.660hand at government and where if not in the case of failure just actively hearing what the British
00:06:25.120people wanted and choosing to do the complete opposite and making things staggeringly worse
00:06:30.660than they already were and the other thing as well just to add is the fact that obviously with
00:06:37.300Restore Britain now coming out there and fighting all of these elections, people are continually
00:06:42.880talking about, oh, well, you're dividing the vote, you're dividing the vote. But all of the people
00:06:48.180who are voting for Restore Britain are people who ostensibly were told by Farage and Reform UK,
00:06:55.020you have no place with us because you're too problematic, you're too toxic, we don't want
00:06:59.420to touch you. And so there have been many, many errors here that has basically led to this schism
00:07:05.060where a schism shouldn't have been had in the first place. And now we find ourselves staring
00:07:10.780down the barrel of a general election in about two years' time. And I think that actually the
00:07:17.500things that we're about to discuss now, better that we have these conversations now, two years
00:07:22.520out, and pray that we're able to mobilise in that amount of time, than having it six weeks out in
00:07:30.280panic mode, right? I do think that that's definitely the way to go. Anyway, before I press on, I just
00:07:36.120wanted to let you know, ladies and gentlemen, the sixth issue of Islander magazine is now out,
00:07:40.900and in this particular issue, we explore what needs to be done at the 11th hour. As always,
00:07:46.660you can see fantastic aesthetics by Rory, truly wonderful artwork, and some absolutely cracking
00:07:52.240essays in it. So do go and check that out on the website and grab yourself a copy.
00:07:57.960Now, a few weeks ago, Dan, Nate and Bowe did a segment just talking about this exact thing,
00:08:05.360Unite the Right. What would it take to unite the right? And as you can tell, this discussion lasted
00:08:11.120for about 20 minutes. And then at the end, they all just kind of came to the same thing,
00:08:16.700which is the North Star of all of this, which is the English, the English, the Scottish,
00:08:23.960the Irish, the Welsh. We do not want to be demographically replaced in our own homeland.
00:08:29.820That's all it comes down to. It's really not complicated. It's like, just take away
00:08:35.260just the countdown of doom over our heads, just the countdown clock of that happening,
00:08:44.400in which case all of the things that the liberal establishment claim to care about,
00:08:49.000democracy rule of law all these sorts of things there will be none of those things if we do not
00:08:55.400address this fundamental question because we are the ones who have actually kept that going for a
00:09:00.380long time and you have brought more and more people in who have no care for these things
00:09:04.840and are willing to scam the system at any opportunity they can get whether that be in
00:09:10.100voting in tower hamlets or any other issue besides right in terms of social welfare and any of these
00:09:16.940things. So all we want is a party that is willing to say, we will protect the demographic security
00:09:25.380of the people of the United Kingdom. That's it. And you know what? That is not a radical thing
00:09:31.260to ask for. It's not a big ask. It's not even something you should ask for. It's barely
00:09:38.140political. Exactly. It is hardly a political question. It is, okay, do you survive or do
00:09:43.300not survive it's it's that simple yeah it's the purpose of politics yes it's the starting point
00:09:49.920it's not even it's exactly exactly it's the starting point serve your people as you've
00:09:54.500been democratically elected to do yes not to replace them with new voters who respond to
00:10:00.640entirely different incentives put your interests above them yes fly in your pocket and so rupert
00:10:06.920lowe came out on sunday morning and it was quite a shock i didn't anticipate this coming of course
00:10:11.980Where he basically laid out an olive branch to Nigel Farage and he addressed him personally to the camera and said, Nigel, look, you know, when we walked in as five reform UK MPs back in 2024, that was a really, really great optimistic moment.
00:10:28.640It showed that there was some anti-establishment energy that had finally broken into Parliament and could start putting questions to the establishment.
00:10:38.660The establishment simply didn't want to ask or have asked of them and certainly didn't have any answers to.
00:10:45.860But the thing is, of course, for all of the reasons I've just outlined in my preamble, tensions arose.
00:10:51.700Obviously, there was a difference of vision there with them. And Rupert Lowe was ousted very, very cruelly by those at the top of Reform UK. I don't want to dig all of that up again. And Rupert in the video says that neither does he.
00:11:05.700But there are a few angles to all of this that we should probably go through to begin with, which is the fact that, OK, let's look at this purely from the lens of just savvy politicking from Restore Britain.
00:11:18.540Well, one of the things that we heard often in Makerfield and that you were undoubtedly going to hear often anywhere else is this narrative of splitting the vote.
00:11:28.480So on the one hand, you now outline to the opposition party, you say, why don't we come together and cooperate on the things that we can agree on with these particular policies that are our red lines that we cannot cross?
00:11:41.160And if reform turn away and say we're not going to do that, then you can just go to the public and like you're splitting the vote.
00:11:47.560It's like, well, we tried to avoid that. We tried to work things out. But apparently there are insurmountable differences. That's one thing.
00:11:54.100There is also the other thing as well of the fact that because Rupert in this has laid out five key areas that Restore Britain are entirely unwavering on, it actually means that this whole line about, well, there's not really any difference between them.
00:12:11.600It's like, well, there obviously is a difference between them because there are certain red lines here that Rupert outlines that reform have obviously shown that they do not want to torch.
00:12:23.120In particular, the death penalty, the question of a death penalty for murderers like Axel Rudakabana and other monsters of his ilk.
00:12:33.080And I really don't understand this aversion towards the death penalty.
00:16:33.500and they've just jumped out to another name.
00:16:35.460It's no sort of, really, fundamentally,
00:16:37.580it's no different from what the Tory party actually was.
00:16:40.180I mean, you could partly understand former Tories disappointed by the Tory party deciding we're going to move towards something more right wing.
00:16:49.760But then the question for the reformed leadership is, will you serve them in the way that they're asking you to serve them?
00:16:59.560Are you going to deliver what the Tories failed to deliver?
00:17:02.880And that does involve, at minimum, the certainty that your grandchildren will recognize your nation.
00:17:08.780yeah and what's interesting is it's the toys jumping about it's not just the ones who are
00:17:13.460disappointed that's understandable but it's the ones who are truly in it for a career and who
00:17:18.860prioritized themselves there's always going to be career risks but you know sinking ship yeah
00:17:23.940um but generally speaking i was very impressed with this video i thought it was strong from
00:17:29.980rupert i thought the wording was very well chosen and i also thought as well that it was pretty
00:17:35.160magnanimous given the previous history. And if Rupert can do that, I see no reason why Farage
00:17:41.960shouldn't do that to put the country first. But the other thing as well is I would just say,
00:17:46.680even if, and even if I were to take at face value, the words of the Reform UK detractors
00:17:55.260about all of this being like, this is not an honest olive branch. This is basically just to
00:17:59.180try and create a bit of infighting within Reform UK, all these sorts of things, even where I take
00:18:04.340that to be true. And honestly, one thing I would just say as well is I don't think you put together
00:18:10.660a video like this, even when people are saying, oh, well, it was really clever because obviously
00:18:15.740Reform UK aren't going to agree to it. It's like, right, but if you're going to make a video like
00:18:21.680this, mentally, you have to prepare yourself for the 1% chance that they do actually say yes.
00:18:27.720Right. There is something within you that has actually gone. This may happen. And so I must
00:18:33.940steal myself to be ready for it. But the other thing as well, sorry, that I would just add is
00:18:38.220the fact that irrespective of whatever you see going on between the talking heads on X,
00:18:44.820ultimately, when you go through the comments section, when you look at everyone just calling
00:18:48.620into Talk TV, you look at everyone calling into GB News, everyone who's just in the Facebook
00:18:53.660comments beneath both Rupert and Nigel's Facebook posts, they all want this. People want to unite
00:19:01.500the right they want to put away the discord that is between these two factions because obviously
00:19:07.600far more can be achieved with the proper messaging and the incredible um the incredibly robust and
00:19:17.520passionate uh activism base that both parties have uh the thing is that the re there are these
00:19:24.680particular principles that are sticking that Reform UK are just simply not willing to address.
00:19:33.560And so we come to the fact that as well, I mean, Nigel Farage at the end of the makerfield
00:19:38.800by-election was saying, you know, for the 3,000 people there who voted for Restore Britain,
00:19:43.780what do you want from us? How do we wing you over again? It's like, well, we keep telling you,
00:19:48.460Nigel. We want the demographic security question to no longer be a question, right? We just want
00:19:55.720it in black and white. We want it from the podium, just saying the English are not going to be
00:20:01.620replaced in England. This continuity that has lasted for over 1,100 years does not end this day.
00:20:10.060That's what we want. And if that cannot be achieved, if that cannot be promised,
00:20:16.280then I'm sorry but there is every reason for Restore Britain to exist and to continue to put
00:20:22.620pressure on you because if we as this movement as this party do not ask these questions it is
00:20:28.500perfectly clear because it has been clear for decades now that no one else will and so that's
00:20:35.040what we want and when it comes down to it as you can see here from Dan and it's a point exactly as
00:20:40.660you were making Elizabeth as well is the fact that it's like well these five policies are mostly
00:20:45.840things that people who are reformed voters agree with anyway, and generally think that Farage is
00:20:52.960actually promising, even if he isn't. And when you lay them out like this, restoring our borders,
00:20:58.780yes, that means deporting all of the illegals, the men, the women, and the children,
00:21:02.760restoring our demographic security. Again, you can just go through all the list of criteria that
00:21:08.340Rupert has outlined for many, many months now. Death penalty for people like Rudolf Parner.
00:21:13.360And again, that's not saying we're bringing back the death penalty.
00:21:16.420That's literally a referendum on it, giving the British public the choice on this question, though usually referendums are withheld if the establishment thinks they're going to get the wrong answer, as we know from experience when it went particularly wrong for them.
00:21:34.120Restoring a self-sufficient Britain, of course, and restoring.
00:21:37.460Sorry, this is perhaps the more underappreciated point
00:23:01.320And obviously Restore Britain have been creating extensive document papers, outline policy roadmaps for how to actually achieve these things.
00:23:11.580And so this went on for quite a while. And I didn't, you know, there were two things about it as well.
00:23:18.520Either Farage just doesn't address that this has happened, in which case that is really going to alienate reform voters, because, again, it's something that they actually want.
00:23:29.120They want to see an end to this fighting, and they actually just want to focus on battering down the old parties, right, into submission.
00:23:38.440But the other thing as well is just to say that essentially, if we go to here, there is also the fact that if Farage does come out and actually address it, well, first of all, he doesn't actually mention Rupert Lowe or Restore by name in this whatsoever.
00:23:53.780as if Rupert Lowe were Voldemort you know to use like a cliche the idea that it's like he who
00:24:00.060cannot be named and to even just mention Rupert Lowe's name in the context is to give him this
00:24:05.500publicity but the other thing as well is just the fact that as Farage goes through all of this I'm
00:24:11.240sorry but it's incredibly weak it's like the next election will be an existential fight to save the
00:24:16.660country with love and Michelle and I've been fighting for over 30 years right and you're on
00:24:21.580like 25% in the polls. After 30 years of fighting, that's the best that can be achieved. And the
00:24:29.960alienation of, well, at minimum, 150,000 members of Restore Britain and Rupert Lowe, who himself
00:24:40.540is very much loved within both parties, and not to mention all of the manpower that a lot of the
00:24:47.420anti-establishment media could bring to the table as well. So those things were not utilised in any
00:24:53.780of this. And he goes on to say that to deliver that change, I understand Reform UK will need
00:25:01.240the support of people from other parties, as well as millions who have never voted before.
00:25:06.060That is a broad coalition I'm building. Again, I come back to the fact that you have left so many
00:25:11.680people out of that coalition, that we're now in a process where we're having to negotiate
00:25:17.420the very future of the right in Britain in a way that just should have been needless
00:30:37.560and actually addressed this in any meaningful way.
00:30:40.920And so you can say that your side, you're going to back your team, and that's supposed to appear honourable and like you're a man of loyalty.
00:30:49.440But if you're being loyal to people who are entirely unworthy of that loyalty, then actually that's not quite the endorsement that it should be ringing as.
00:30:59.240So there's been a lot of umming and ahhing about all of this, and I saw people from all sides just saying it was a little bit ambiguous to what extent Farage actually was indulging any of this.
00:31:10.920I mean, Zia Youssef came out this morning and said, of course, we're willing to engage and talk to people from other parties that includes Rupert, which fair play to Zia, very big of him. Richard Tice, I think, said some, I mean, Tice is never the clearest person, but ultimately there seems to be a bit of ambiguity there.
00:31:30.200But then Nigel Farage was at a press conference just before I've come on. And so I've had to sort of rush through the details of it a little bit. But Farage was saying that he reached out to Rupert yesterday. And he actually texted him saying if he'd be open for a call and that Rupert never got back to him. And Farage was open to discussing these possibilities.
00:31:51.900And so as a result of this, Rupert basically came out and said, well, yesterday at 10.30pm,
00:31:57.880Nigel messaged me saying the following three words, we'll call later, i.e. not let me know
00:32:04.660if you want to call, but expect a call from me. And obviously that call never came. And there's
00:32:10.180a screenshot there just to back it up as well. So again, it seems like if the right is going to
00:32:16.820unite it's not going to be today but real problem of trust between the two and and that's a huge
00:32:22.700obstacle that's why it makes sense to sort of commit to certain policies and say this reconciliation
00:32:28.920is based on policies going beyond personalities yes and what are the policies make the country
00:32:34.840function economically demographic security not like yeah these are that just that thing that
00:32:42.200human beings for all of time have wanted. It's barely even a political concern. It's just so
00:32:49.960innately human as to be uncontroversial. But because of this toxic zeitgeist that we've been
00:32:55.720living in for decades now, it's been made out like it's beyond the pale. So anyway, there are a lot
00:33:02.120more things that are obviously going to be hashed out and discussed. I obviously would like to see
00:33:07.620an end to this entire feud. And if that does mean working with people in Reform UK, there are many
00:33:15.120people, as I say, I met perfectly wonderful canvassers in Makerfield, who I would be more
00:33:20.080than happy to do my patriotic duty alongside, working to save Britain. But there are certain
00:33:27.440hurdles that it seems it is going to be difficult to broach, one being, of course, the question of
00:33:34.080demographic security. And the other thing being the fact that Reform UK is positions are being
00:33:40.500promised to people who have already tried the hand at one government and prove themselves to be
00:33:46.280the worst traitors in British history. So we'll see what happens.
00:33:53.320Right, I'll just go through this. That's a random name for $1 says, as I said in Bo's
00:33:57.900live stream yesterday if farage accepts rupert should uh game for the love of the game i mean
00:34:04.160good banter but let's let's keep it sensible chaps um uh hawk and the wire 91 for five dollars thank
00:34:12.040you says uh fly the flag know your history love the land uh the english made england as an american
00:34:17.680what happens to your land concerns us all thank you i really appreciate that and uh accrual for
00:34:23.820$5 again, thank you, says, let's not forget that Farage tried to destroy Lo in a very personal
00:34:29.120manner. Yes, absolutely. After they'd worked together for many, many years prior as well.
00:34:35.220So, yeah. Can I have a mouse, please? So, it seems that the
00:34:42.000powers that be can't have enough of experimenting on children.
00:34:48.020There was a puberty trial, puberty blockers trial that was scheduled by the NHS. Legal campaigners
00:34:59.140tried to stop it. James Esses, Kyra Bell, a couple of organizations, Transgender Trend, some others
00:35:07.480brought a legal challenge to it to try to freeze it because there is no actual scientific value
00:35:16.160or potential benefit to giving children puberty blockers.
00:35:21.100Unfortunately, that legal route has failed
00:36:22.780The second thing is that around 9,000 children
00:36:26.560have already been given puberty blockers in Britain.
00:36:29.240And the law has been changed to permit a sort of data reconciliation study,
00:36:37.100a data collection study to trace the information of these 9,000 children who would presumably now be young adults who have been given these puberty blockers and assess what happened and basically see what's their current situation.
00:36:52.480And this is potentially underway or can be done now because there have been changes to the law to reduce some restrictions on data privacy to allow people to collect that data on a cohort of 9,000 people and see, okay, what were the actual results?
00:37:13.680and this itself was part of the cast review the infamous review into nhs treatments for
00:37:23.160so-called gender dysphoria which basically said well we need a little more research a little more
00:37:29.340science but clearly there's a bunch of harms that come from giving children puberty blockers
00:37:33.840it's strange isn't it you can't buy a monster energy drink until you're 16 you can change a
00:37:41.300whole body you can't smoke till you're 18 because you're not old enough to make those decisions
00:37:45.840yourself you can't drink till you're 18 but you can change your entire body whilst you're still
00:37:51.300a child whilst you're vulnerable to other people's opinions and a previous high court ruling had
00:37:55.820found that children of that age could not give informed consent but the judge seems to have
00:38:03.280ignored this. And this is the judge. He gave his ruling and the ruling is just weird. Now I'm not
00:38:14.580a legal expert. I'm not a lawyer. I don't really fully understand these things. But reading it as
00:38:21.100a layman, a few phrases struck me and I really want to try to comment on them briefly. One of
00:38:29.120the things was that the judge came up with was the trial was commissioned by NHS England and
00:38:37.000designed by its co-sponsors with conspicuous care in consultation with other expert bodies.
00:38:43.460So the reasoning here is trust the experts. And that flows through the entire judgment.
00:38:48.260Oh, yeah. Because lockdown really, really helped us to trust the experts.
00:38:53.040Well, but again, when they say experts, how are you an expert if you don't understand that children are either male or female with a 0.00 something exception of genetic issues?
00:39:08.300Yeah, well, but this is the thing when they say experts, they don't actually mean those who have accumulated just incredibly intimate knowledge on in any particular given field over the span of their professional career.
00:39:22.180What they actually mean by expert is someone who has ideologically come to a certain conclusion that we also want them to come to and are going to carry out.
00:41:13.080What is the potential benefit for turning a child sterile
00:41:17.700and ending up basically with a woman that sounds like a man
00:41:22.340because she's taken too much testosterone
00:41:24.220or with a man who can't behave like a man
00:41:27.660because his puberty has been repressed
00:41:30.060And now he's frail and weak and doomed to a life of just misery.
00:41:37.000And I'll get to the misery and discuss it in a second.
00:41:40.180But also someone as well who will go through all of that and look back on those early stages of their life and say everyone who was supposed to have been an adult and someone who was supposed to guardrail me in those formative years actually did something incredibly cruel to me.
00:41:58.580yes yes for their own selfish reasons and that will make you incredibly jaded to the whole of
00:42:03.680society yes absolutely and your actual amount any trust that you might have in it absolutely
00:42:08.560yeah and the thing is as well like if you want to be an adult and wear a dress and call yourself a
00:42:14.500female name and act feminine then like whatever like um if you've i used to be that tolerant i
00:42:20.000stopped being tolerant but the point is i've seen that that's where we started this is where we
00:42:26.340ended up we shouldn't have tolerated this from the outset yeah i get i get that perspective but
00:42:30.260to finish the point it's like if you want to make that decision as a full-grown adult where you know
00:42:34.700you've reached you know the age where you're mentally developed and like like whatever but um
00:42:41.100as a child when you're extremely vulnerable when you're going through phrases as a teenager i mean
00:42:45.380i was an emo that used to wear corpse paint um and wanted snake bites i don't want snake bites now
00:42:50.920but imagine if i got snake bites i'd be i have i would have holes in my face for the rest of my
00:42:55.440life there's a reason why you have to be 18 to get a tattoo yes imagine if i tattooed myself as
00:43:02.800a teenager and i'm stuck with that yeah so imagine being a teenager taking puberty blockers and now
00:43:09.020having to be stuck with that for the rest of your life because you went through a phrase or you were
00:43:13.440vulnerable maybe you're going through trauma and people around you were like maybe you should
00:43:18.480transition maybe that's what the problem is and you believed it i mean the first time i found out
00:43:22.980what transgenderism was was when i was eight and i used to be a tomboy i used to have my hair cut
00:43:28.020short here i looked like a boy people used to think i was a boy i used to wear boys clothes
00:43:32.100um because i didn't really i didn't really care um i was just i just liked having fun as a kid
00:43:38.140and this like girl came up to me in primary school and she's like you know you can get
00:43:42.060surgery right to actually become a boy and i remember thinking in class like what on
00:43:47.000as someone told me. That's terrifying, actually. But if I was a traumatized child, I would be like,
00:43:54.000yeah, maybe that's what's wrong with me. Maybe I am actually born in a wrong body. And that's why
00:43:59.600it's extremely dangerous. I mean, the entire thing is just so revealing, isn't it, as well?
00:44:05.860It's an ideology that's so predatory that we cannot do it. We cannot exert this level of
00:44:12.120pressure on people after they've become 18 we have to get them whilst before they've actually
00:44:17.040yeah yeah yeah gained a full understanding oh absolutely um the judge goes on to sort of defend
00:44:23.520his decision uh there is a detailed process to ensure that the child assents impossible
00:44:29.580and that a parent consents to the treatment so if you don't want your child to be
00:44:38.820destroyed in this way, your consent isn't necessary as a parent. Only one of you has to
00:44:46.200be crazy enough. And this is a deliberate thing because if this was in good faith,
00:44:52.680it would at least require both parents' consent. But it's also saying that for some reason you get
00:44:58.900one parent votes yes, you get one parent that votes no. But magically, the yes vote just weighs
00:45:05.160a bit more yes exactly exactly exactly even though you've just got one answer from each
00:45:10.380exactly uh having been fully informed of what it involves and its potential outcomes let's be
00:45:17.240clear about something the none of the potential outcomes includes actually becoming someone of
00:45:24.100the opposite sex yes that is not a potential outcome and if you want wings because you're a
00:45:32.260child i'm not gonna give you wings to let you throw yourself off a cliff this you cannot be a
00:45:40.400swan sorry you're not gonna be a unicorn you're not gonna be a swan i'm sorry uh please if you're
00:45:47.400gonna jump just jump from the sofa to the floor that's enough no flying allowed uh there's no
00:45:54.460potential outcome where this provides a benefit to the child the argument is that it might improve
01:10:29.100by um by professor from the university of leeds where he says without investment in new reservoirs
01:10:34.680england will be left a stressed water supply and london will be as stressed as places in africa
01:10:40.200which is we're we have like the the fifth um biggest gdp in the world right we're
01:10:48.400we're a very wealthy nation but we're we've got this massive crisis on on hand because no one
01:10:56.580really thinks about these things and the government so the government's plan to invest about eight
01:11:01.180billion um over the next five years to construct nine west and floors um which doesn't actually
01:11:07.260take in population increase whatsoever um and they won't be built till 2040 so right you can
01:11:13.900predict then our water bills are going to get 30s misery essentially yeah um 30s are going to be a
01:11:21.360true decade of misery it seems yeah and it says here as well that even with with these reservoirs
01:11:29.620they will only contribute 20 of the water we uh we actually need um so and and even then as well
01:11:37.460it's one thing to to be creating new reservoirs and to be looking at water meters and all these
01:11:42.560sorts of things but come back to the basic utilities argument of like well who owns it as
01:11:47.320well. Who owns it? Is it owned by continental corporations? Is it publicly owned by the British
01:11:54.800state? Is it going to be owned by a British company? Again, there are these questions as
01:11:59.940well. And these are ones that the British state don't really seem to want to address, not just
01:12:04.180when it comes to water, but when it comes to energy, when it comes to things such as the trains,
01:12:10.440just anything to do with basic infrastructure in this country.
01:12:14.080There needs to be a model that turns these kinds of assets into a national trust of sorts, and that gives politicians the right to sort of go dictator on them and say, no, this is now your mandate.
01:12:27.640You have to do these things by that time.
01:12:29.800Otherwise, there's going to be consequences.
01:12:31.420And The Guardian, again, I mean, The Guardian is really good for this stuff with investigative journalism.
01:12:36.320But it points out, again, like a lot of these water companies can give themselves paywisers.
01:12:41.640They can give themselves really nice paychecks.
01:12:43.540instead of actually investing that money into infrastructure
01:13:11.520So you shouldn't associate basic utilities with the profit motive to begin with.
01:13:16.860That's why it should be some kind of, you don't want every politician intervening in it, obviously.
01:13:22.820You want to give them some emergency power over it because that's the only way to correct it, obviously.
01:13:28.420But it can't be just driven by profit and extracting assets and stripping them and sending them abroad to financial entities that have no concern for you in the long term.
01:22:47.660and it's also we um we don't have any sort of national stock uh stockpiles as well right um to
01:22:55.380actually prepare for a worst case scenario like you know there's all the mainstream talks about
01:23:03.200how we're possibly going to go to war with Russia and so on but we don't have any sort of stockpiles
01:23:07.960uh to counter our supply being cut off or because of climate change um the food we're getting from
01:23:16.600countries in the middle east or like southern europe um the droughts they're suffering from
01:23:20.980when our food is cut off from them um we've got no plan about that as well um so a lot of people
01:23:28.080in our circles ignore climate change and the fact things are getting hotter um because they are
01:23:33.340naturally um and they're not actually thinking about what that's going to lead to and it is going
01:23:37.660to lead to droughts it will probably lead to famines and it will lead to prices increasing
01:23:41.680and the poorest members of our society not being able to eat well and to starving and those are
01:23:46.960sort of conditions again for revolutions which is what this article emits like that's why you
01:23:52.300have peasant uprisings back in the medieval times because of conditions like that and it
01:23:58.140it makes me think you know there's not much we can do apart from understand this um we can't
01:24:06.300make sure we have enough food as an entire population as one individual right
01:24:11.580but there is there is things we can do for ourselves and our community on an individual
01:24:16.000level one of them is starting your own allotment um if you don't have a garden or it's like a long
01:24:23.280waiting list with the council also becoming reliant on your actual local farmers so going
01:24:28.220if you live in a village with a butcher's or baker's going there um stepping away from
01:24:33.040corporate supermarkets and trying to establish local connections and with the water source
01:24:39.480problem as well moving somewhere where there is natural water sources like in the welsh valleys
01:24:47.040or the scottish highlands where if you go up the mountains you can drink fresh water and it's it's
01:24:52.380far better than whatever is coming out of those taps a lot of people joke and say there's chemicals
01:24:57.040in the water in scotland which is why all the people in glasgow are freaking weird but when
01:25:01.200you go to those mountains it's the best stranger theory it's it's the best water you'll ever have
01:25:06.760So realizing what's coming and understanding and reconnecting yourself back to the land and reconnecting yourself to farming and becoming self-sufficient, learning foraging skills, learning what fruits you can pick in the forest and eat, but most importantly, learning how to actually grow fruit and veg and have chickens and look after chickens.
01:26:03.580why are you being so difficult yeah it does feel like that sometimes uh henry ashman says there's
01:26:09.420a moment in watership down that feels very similar to this moment between restore and reform i mean
01:26:14.340well okay at that moment in the sunset of watership on watership down there was offered to
01:26:21.120general uh woundwort the opportunity to show whether he was really the leader of vision and
01:26:26.920genius which he believed himself to be or whether he was no more than a tyrant with the courage and
01:26:32.540cunning of a pirate uh it's time for nigel to choose is he a statesman or an agitator
01:26:38.040well time will tell won't it but the whole process is very frustrating uh all right then
01:26:45.680samson hit play for me mate so in light of the recent spain situation i find it pertinent to
01:26:52.300bring up that morocco did this back in the 70s as well where it was called the green march where
01:26:57.380They sent like 350,000 of their own people across the border with a military escort, actually, and basically just said, we're not leaving until you renegotiate who owns this land.
01:27:08.540Interestingly, they made sure that the people that were actually living there were not allowed to be represented during these negotiations.
01:27:15.680And those natives actually wound up becoming refugees themselves by the Moroccans.
