The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters - The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters #947

00:00:00.000 All right, hello and welcome to the podcast of Lotus Eaters episode 947 on today the 28th of June 2024.

00:00:08.160 You've just seen our lovely little promo there that we will be doing the election night coverage.

00:00:13.300 Reminder again, code zero seats for 50% off, three months gold tier membership, and it is free for everybody.

00:00:20.020 And today what we're going to be doing is covering the slow motion death of Joe Biden during the debate last night,

00:00:26.340 how it's apparently over for Nigel Farage, and we're also going to be covering TikTok and the radical Zoomer Waffen that is emerging.

00:00:37.160 I've never heard that before.

00:00:38.740 I only just heard it earlier because you've got the Boomer Waffen, the Zoomer Waffen is slowly emerging.

00:00:44.680 And now it's the Predator handshake meme.

00:00:46.920 Yes. So is there anything else we'd like to say before we get started?

00:00:50.740 Yes.

00:00:51.360 All right, let's go.

00:00:52.340 Okay, I thought we need to talk about old Sleepy Joe again.

00:00:56.340 because there was a performance yesterday evening.

00:00:59.600 He was rolled out, trotted out, wheeled out.

00:01:02.180 I think a lot of this is inverted commas, a performance.

00:01:04.380 Fuppeteered.

00:01:05.060 Yeah.

00:01:06.400 So I watched the whole thing.

00:01:08.320 Well, actually, I didn't actually.

00:01:09.300 I watched most of it, nearly all of it.

00:01:11.020 I watched that sort of 80, 90% of it.

00:01:13.900 I watched nearly all of it.

00:01:15.500 And have been sort of dining out on the reactions from both sides.

00:01:21.540 And it's interesting to see.

00:01:23.700 But I suppose just the overall impressions for anyone who perhaps haven't seen it and rely on Lotus Eaters for sort of takes and things.

00:01:31.580 My take was that Trump's the same old Trump.

00:01:34.700 It's the same as he's always been because he's only three years younger than Biden.

00:01:37.940 He's 78.

00:01:39.300 Right.

00:01:39.520 But he's just completely loose.

00:01:41.660 He's still funny.

00:01:42.380 He's just exactly the same old Trump.

00:01:44.480 Whereas Biden is worse than he was even a year ago, I would say.

00:01:49.820 Biden literally looks like he's been exhumed.

00:01:52.040 Yeah.

00:01:53.000 It's really, really bad.

00:01:54.980 Animated by malevolent spirits, perhaps?

00:01:57.300 No, not even malevolent spirits.

00:01:59.400 No, mischievous spirits.

00:02:00.720 No, God, that would be more interesting.

00:02:02.700 No, but Biden looks like he's been reanimated by tired spirits who just want to leave this mortal plane.

00:02:08.540 And they're just sick of politics, sick of being the president.

00:02:11.240 I mean, have you ever seen Tales from the Crypt?

00:02:13.380 Right?

00:02:13.720 He looked like the Crypt Keeper, but a boring version of the Crypt Keeper.

00:02:17.220 The Crypt Keeper had way more energy than Joe Biden did.

00:02:20.460 Biden sounded like he'd just come off an all-night bender.

00:02:23.800 Like, it's like, Biden, you had too many cigarettes last night, too much beer.

00:02:28.160 You should have laid off the whiskey.

00:02:29.480 He looks like he's literally dead on his feet.

00:02:32.900 And it's become evident that this, whatever, whoever's puppeteering, like, no one thinks Biden's in charge of any of the things that are happening.

00:02:39.840 And whoever is doing this to Biden looks like they're being cruel to him.

00:02:43.300 And I've got no sympathy for Biden whatsoever.

00:02:45.620 It's Dr. Jill, largely.

00:02:47.640 That's what it looks like.

00:02:48.600 Obviously, she's not the overall grand mind behind the Democratic Party or anything, or the global cabal, or whatever it is.

00:02:54.960 But in the immediate, she's propping him up quite physically sometimes, right?

00:03:01.360 There's obviously some sort of small cabal around, you know, the diversity hire press secretary and, you know, various other people around him who are controlling, like, social medias, his appearances, his schedules, and stuff like this.

00:03:12.540 Who are just using him as a puppet to push forward whatever they're trying to do.

00:03:18.760 And it's become apparent to, I think, everyone after this debate.

00:03:22.240 This is cruel.

00:03:23.660 Yeah.

00:03:23.920 This is not good.

00:03:25.300 Judging by some of what's been reported and what's been said, it seems that even before the debate, some on the Democrat side were aware that this was not going to go well.

00:03:35.820 And are sort of priming themselves for perhaps a switch, but yeah, well, one thing I thought that was very telling, because I've said my take on him for quite a few months now has been not that he's struggling or suffering.

00:03:46.860 That's been self-evident since before 2016 or before 2020, rather, but that he's actually dying.

00:03:54.320 I really do think he's dying.

00:03:56.040 He seems like I've seen people, you know, come to the end of their life and die.

00:04:00.300 And he shows all the symptoms of it.

00:04:04.060 But I feel like it's, well, one of the things that I thought was an indication was that when I was watching lots of right-leaning and left-leaning reactions to it, I watched Jon Stewart Leibovic.

00:04:17.740 Well, Jon Stewart, sorry.

00:04:18.860 Jon Stewart.

00:04:19.520 You're going to have Ben.

00:04:20.020 Jon Stewart.

00:04:21.120 I was watching him watch.

00:04:23.800 And when he was showing, he dunked on both Trump and Biden.

00:04:26.960 And when he was showing some Biden clips, his own audience were like sort of sighing.

00:04:34.100 They weren't like laughing or it wasn't just like a carefully studied silence.

00:04:38.960 They were like, people were like sighing and like you could hear people.

00:04:43.700 Yeah, it's beyond embarrassment.

00:04:46.060 It's now like, yeah, this is.

00:04:47.760 It's sad.

00:04:48.580 Yeah, properly sad.

00:04:51.540 This, this, this, he came across like someone's granddad who's got dementia.

00:04:55.360 Yeah, yeah, well, that's exactly what he is.

00:04:59.020 Yeah, well, I mean, entirely.

00:05:00.880 But like, you know, he should be in a care home.

00:05:02.820 Either way, it all looks terrible for America, doesn't it?

00:05:05.880 Because whether or not you want to question how much power the president really has in the executive and such, even though we know that he was always going to be some kind of figurehead trotted out for the regime, right? 0.59

00:05:16.580 But the fact that this is the best figurehead that you could get means you're kind of a joke nation.

00:05:22.320 Well, Stelius, very shortly before we came on, sent me a link to a tweet from Piers Morgan, who I don't follow.

00:05:28.620 Piers Morgan just says Gavin Newsom is going to be the candidate for November this year.

00:05:32.760 I mean, I mean, the immediate reaction from the Democrats for this.

00:05:37.660 I don't even think it's America.

00:05:38.820 I think it's the Democrat Party and Democrat voters because the Republicans, their candidate's still perfectly lucid, still fairly nimble on his feet.

00:05:49.280 You know, he still seems to know exactly what he wants, where he's going and why he's going to start firing people, which is one of the parts of the debate I really enjoyed.

00:05:56.720 Trump being like, look, you've had loads of failures and you haven't fired anyone.

00:05:59.600 Why not?

00:06:01.260 Just a quick aside on that, actually.

00:06:04.180 Trump came across as actually quite restrained.

00:06:10.060 Yeah, he actually came across as kind of sympathetic to Biden, like he was suffering.

00:06:15.980 Like the one clip that went around, I don't know whether you've got it or not, but the one clip that went around was, of course, Biden mumbling something.

00:06:21.860 And Trump just like, I don't know what he just said and I don't think he knows what he just said.

00:06:27.400 But this is what we need to do.

00:06:28.660 That was another one of my takes.

00:06:29.980 Trump could have been way more brutal if he'd wanted to.

00:06:32.940 And normally he is.

00:06:33.800 Right, yeah.

00:06:34.500 Like normally he's a lot more aggressive.

00:06:35.900 He could have been way more brutal and sarcastic and funny.

00:06:39.680 Yeah, yeah.

00:06:40.040 But I think now everyone really sees it.

00:06:43.060 It's like, urgh.

00:06:44.020 And the things that would have come across as really horrible and inappropriate, right?

00:06:46.880 So Trump actually came across really well by the fact that he was just like, hmm, okay.

00:06:51.940 Well, I'm recalling all the clips that came out in 2016 of the debates that he had with Hillary Clinton, which, yeah, he went for the throat there.

00:06:58.960 He was actively saying, I will arrest you.

00:07:00.920 I will put you in prison when I'm in office.

00:07:04.200 And you can't really do that with Biden because Hillary Clinton, evil as she may be, can at least string a sentence together. 1.00

00:07:10.200 Well, she was a real opponent. 1.00

00:07:12.540 Yeah.

00:07:12.740 It's like a grown man fighting a woman or a child or something.

00:07:19.380 Yeah, you don't swing for the fences, right?

00:07:23.180 You just don't do it.

00:07:25.960 Anyway, one of the things actually, talking about physicality is another thing I've said, the way his sort of baby steps.

00:07:32.300 Can we actually play a link that's a bit below Samson, the one where it says Jill is helping him?

00:07:39.940 I think it's, if we go to this, go back.

00:07:45.880 Biden gets escorted off stage.

00:07:48.620 Just watch this.

00:07:50.760 Sort of look how delicate he is.

00:07:55.160 Oh.

00:07:55.980 So the technical problem there.

00:07:57.140 Okay.

00:07:57.260 So there's like a step.

00:08:01.480 I think it's one step or maybe two.

00:08:04.540 And I know it's only a thing.

00:08:05.560 And I know when Trump had to very delicately walk down a wet ramp one time.

00:08:12.700 Sure.

00:08:13.200 But this is not that.

00:08:15.620 And it's, I guess, to me.

00:08:17.000 But like, even walking up to him, very unstable.

00:08:20.700 Yeah.

00:08:21.940 Or just everything about his physicality.

00:08:23.600 I think I saw Dana Carvey doing an impression where he says, you ever notice Biden will sometimes just really slowly sort of do that?

00:08:32.940 That's just one of his tips.

00:08:35.160 It is honestly painful to watch.

00:08:36.900 So anyway, we've got some Biden lowlights.

00:08:41.680 Can you play that link?

00:08:43.460 Because the thing was quite long.

00:08:44.540 It was over an hour, wasn't it?

00:08:45.740 Hour and a half.

00:08:46.280 Hour and a half.

00:08:46.860 Right.

00:08:47.140 Yeah, yeah.

00:08:47.800 Yeah.

00:08:48.640 And.

00:08:49.640 Well, it's not long.

00:08:51.060 Making sure that everyone makes every single solitary person eligible for what I've been able to do with the COVID.

00:09:00.480 Excuse me.

00:09:01.000 With dealing with everything we have.

00:09:03.900 Is it Trump's face?

00:09:04.680 Mm-hmm.

00:09:05.260 Look, if we finally beat Medicare, we're finally providing housing for black Americans.

00:09:14.640 Finally destroyed the agency.

00:09:15.660 The impact of the choice, the idea that they're going to, I'm not either proposing that everybody, they pay, the millionaires pay 1%.

00:09:28.700 1%.

00:09:29.700 So no one after, I've not raised the cost of Social Security for anybody.

00:09:34.460 Three, I got my handicap, which when I was vice president, down to a six.

00:09:40.920 And I used to get away with, get rid of the ability of Medicare to, for the ability to, for the, us to be able to negotiate to our price with the big pharma companies.

00:09:53.160 What I'm going to do is fix the tax system.

00:09:55.540 For example, we have 1,000 trillionaires in America.

00:09:58.920 I mean, billionaires in America.

00:10:00.420 No one was hurt.

00:10:01.620 No one, one Israeli was accidentally killed.

00:10:04.160 And it stopped.

00:10:05.160 And I'm going to continue to move until we get the total ban on the total initiative relative to what we're going to do with more border patrol and more asylum officers.

00:10:17.640 Anyway.

00:10:19.380 I'll tell you what.

00:10:20.160 Sorry, just a quick thing here.

00:10:21.980 Like, it's Trump's expressions next to him that is really making this for me.

00:10:26.600 Because, like, you can see Trump just, like, he's getting bored waiting for Biden to finish rambling.

00:10:34.140 He looks sad more than anything, to be honest.

00:10:37.060 That's the thing of repeatedly getting, mixing up trillions, billions, millions, and thousands.

00:10:43.380 At one point, he said 15,000 jobs.

00:10:45.280 I think he must have meant 15 million.

00:10:48.640 But, yeah.

00:10:49.780 Because I've said it before as well.

00:10:51.660 We all know, speaking for a living, essentially, that you do misspeak sometimes.

00:10:57.080 Yeah.

00:10:57.380 I've totally said completely the wrong thing.

00:11:00.280 And in my mind, I've got it right.

00:11:02.620 And I sort of heard myself saying it right.

00:11:04.980 But then the video footage shows I said the wrong name or something.

00:11:09.180 So, it totally, totally happens.

00:11:10.700 But, again, this is not what's happening here exactly, is it?

00:11:14.040 It's not that.

00:11:15.220 Over the course of an entire hour and a half with no change.

00:11:18.460 Yeah.

00:11:19.400 Yeah.

00:11:20.160 I think just a quick thing on the setup as well is interesting.

00:11:24.640 CNN did a thing where they said, look, they're going to have a green light next to their microphone.

00:11:30.280 They'll tell them when their microphone's actually on so they can't interrupt each other.

00:11:33.500 Because, of course, and they were thinking, well, look, if Trump has just given free reign, he's just going to go hell for leather.

00:11:38.620 And Biden will start stumbling and Trump will go, what, what, what?

00:11:41.220 And Biden will, train of thought, probably have a seizure and keel over, right?

00:11:45.480 And so you can tell they were like, right, so we're going to have it so that Trump just can't really speak during Biden's bit.

00:11:50.360 But I think that really actually helped Trump, because what that meant is that Biden has no distractions when he's talking.

00:11:56.880 And all of these, and everyone's just quietly looking at him, it's like, oh, no.

00:12:02.060 And it also toned Trump down.

00:12:03.760 So he's not on the attack.

00:12:04.760 He's not in this sort of, you know, very combative mode.

00:12:07.560 And this just made Trump seem very quite reasonable, actually, and kind of, like, kind towards Biden.

00:12:14.160 And Biden looked really, really bad.

00:12:16.540 And so the time's dragging on, and Trump's waiting for him to talk, to be able to talk.

00:12:22.060 And Biden's still, and it's like, God, this is brutal. 0.98

00:12:25.480 Never interrupt your opponent when they're making a mistake or making themselves look foolish. 0.98

00:12:29.900 Exactly. 0.98

00:12:30.260 And that's what CNN did.

00:12:32.780 And it's like, okay.

00:12:33.460 Another thing John Leibowitz did, which I thought was interesting, was he talked about Joe Biden's face when Trump was talking.

00:12:43.240 And that, again, was very, very telling.

00:12:45.200 Yeah.

00:12:45.520 Because he's got that, the very vacant look.

00:12:47.900 And like the open.

00:12:48.880 Mouth open.

00:12:49.860 You know, he had his mouth open.

00:12:51.160 Yeah.

00:12:51.880 And just like the vacant, truly sort of vacant look.

00:12:56.060 Yeah.

00:12:57.280 He looks like he's got a very clouded mind, right?

00:13:00.460 Yeah.

00:13:00.700 That's the thing.

00:13:01.320 It looks like he's very foggy.

00:13:02.500 Now, having said all that, one last thing I would say is that I've seen Biden worse, though, because he obviously has good days and bad days, like anyone that suffers from actual dementia does.

00:13:13.380 You have good days and bad days.

00:13:14.840 Depends how much and what drugs they've pumped into him for this event.

00:13:19.380 So I've seen him, actually, a bit worse.

00:13:25.220 Out of an hour and a half odd, he was only sort of incoherent a small, like truly incoherent a small number of times.

00:13:31.900 But still, it was pretty bad.

00:13:33.900 But still, it was pretty bad.

00:13:36.620 And now it's not just the right-leaning news that he's noticing.

00:13:41.820 Everyone is.

00:13:42.460 And here's an interesting tweet where it's just sort of a, what would you say, a collage of all sorts of news outlets saying, if anyone's only listening to the audio here, a disaster for Joe Biden from Newsweek.

00:13:55.220 Like, well, there's just a massive long list of all sorts of-

00:13:59.220 The likely Democrat can't-

00:14:00.800 From Politico, the Hill, Vox, all sorts of, Al Jazeera, Time, all sorts of-

00:14:06.400 The Democrat media industrial complex.

00:14:08.460 Yeah, yeah.

00:14:09.360 All sorts of-

00:14:10.220 Corporate mainstream media that should be shilling, standing for Biden, and they're not at all.

00:14:17.120 To me, it confuses me because I do believe that there is a good chance that Biden's going to be made to step down because clearly he is not fit to hold that office right now.

00:14:28.220 My confusion comes from why so late?

00:14:31.220 Why so late in the game?

00:14:32.560 Why let him get to the point where he's embarrassing himself and the Democratic Party on the national stage?

00:14:39.100 What, five, six months before the actual election takes place?

00:14:45.240 Why get to this point?

00:14:46.140 Why not airdrop in Gavin Newsom earlier if he's who they're going to pivot to?

00:14:51.040 That's a very good question.

00:14:52.020 Very interesting question.

00:14:53.040 I thought, if you'd asked me this time last year, I would have said that they wouldn't run with him in 2024.

00:15:01.040 And when they did, because he even was making, when he was directly asked the question, he wasn't sort of concrete,

00:15:07.340 yes, I'm definitely running, I'm the incumbent president, of course I'm running in 2024.

00:15:11.040 He said things like, he actually said things like, if my health holds up to it and we'll see and all that sort of thing.

00:15:15.580 So leaving some wiggle room for the party to replace him.

00:15:19.000 And then when they didn't, that was a bit surprising to me because where we are now is obviously where it was always going to be.

00:15:26.900 Maybe, maybe, there's two things, two answers to that.

00:15:29.920 Maybe it's deliberate and they're playing some sort of 3D chess.

00:15:33.360 I won't call it 4D chess.

00:15:34.660 They're playing some sort of chess game, some sort of checkers game with him.

00:15:38.080 Trust the plan.

00:15:39.420 Or they just, they don't really care.

00:15:44.420 You know, he's a completely controllable entity.

00:15:47.880 And that's all they want, that's all they need.

00:15:49.220 They don't care if it's embarrassing for the United States.

00:15:52.000 They don't care if it's elder abuse or anything.

00:15:55.460 I think it's more than that.

00:15:56.500 I don't know.

00:15:56.940 I don't think that.

00:15:57.380 I think Biden, frankly, is one of the nexus points of a web of corruption that underpins the entire Democrat Party.

00:16:04.740 And lots of nodes that form out of this, like, you know, the connections with Hunter and Burisma, Hunter and the Chinese and things like this.

00:16:14.800 Like, God only knows what Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, all of these.

00:16:18.220 I think Biden is basically the nexus of that web.

00:16:22.420 And so if they remove him, that puts everyone slightly in danger.

00:16:27.120 What if the next guy isn't on side, actually?

00:16:30.760 Still, but how would someone like Gavin Newsom not be entirely on side as a regime creature?

00:16:37.440 I'm not saying he's not.

00:16:38.180 The other suggestion that I've heard bandied about is that the deep state is essentially resigned to the idea that Trump might get in and is going to get in and is essentially working to be able to control him and contain him when he does get in.

00:16:54.540 So they're allowing all of this to happen just out of a sense of sort of a determinism.

00:16:59.020 That could totally be the case.

00:17:00.920 Both of the things you've just said there could be totally the case.

00:17:04.560 It's like the idea that, you know, someone said to Rishi Sunak, you know, we want Starmer to be the prime minister.

00:17:13.600 So we're telling you to throw this thing.

00:17:16.140 Throw the election.

00:17:17.140 It might be with that, like, let Biden appear crazy because we've got our plans and we've got our plans within plans with the Trump team.

00:17:27.600 I don't know.

00:17:28.160 The problem I have with this kind of theory is who's they is always the question.

00:17:31.880 State Department.

00:17:33.180 Yeah, but who?

00:17:34.000 Like, name the person.

00:17:35.400 Well, whoever's in charge of the State Department.

00:17:37.060 And the whole point of the blob is that you can't attribute particular names to it for the most part.

00:17:44.680 But the problem is as well is it assumes a level of competence and control that I just don't think these people actually have.

00:17:52.040 I think that these people are as surprised by events as anyone else.

00:17:55.620 And they just do their best to manage them after they have already begun.

00:17:59.560 And I think that this is just another thing.

00:18:01.120 I mean, I don't think there's a plan behind, you know, the entire Democrat Party being like,

00:18:06.540 yeah, we're going to stick with Biden, stick with Biden.

00:18:08.280 And then, oh, actually, this is untenable.

00:18:10.880 Oh, God, what are we going to do?

00:18:12.360 Like, it was just on their faces that they didn't think it was going to be this bad.

00:18:15.880 And Gavin Newsom actually did an interview directly after it.

00:18:18.220 He was like, no, we're going to stay behind Joe Biden.

00:18:19.760 One bad debate doesn't make anything.

00:18:21.540 That is what you say, though, right?

00:18:22.900 Sure, but it's not, though.

00:18:24.840 That's the thing.

00:18:25.400 They're all like, you know.

00:18:27.760 Well, so it's an interesting point.

00:18:30.000 If Gavin Newsom was like, I want to be in charge of the Democrat Party, now is the time.

00:18:33.220 He should be like, well, you know, I think we need to take care of Joe Biden.

00:18:35.700 But I'll step into that role of leadership.

00:18:37.640 When you say who's they, a couple of things.

00:18:40.020 One, it's, yeah, sort of the permanent civil servant types at the State Department or at the Pentagon or at the White House or whatever.

00:18:46.580 But also someone like Obama or the Clinton family.

00:18:50.180 You know, like Obama visited Rishi.

00:18:52.060 That was so suspicious to me when he visited Rishi off the cover.

00:18:55.500 I feel like, you know, the Obamas and the Clintons, Biden is their plaything.

00:19:02.860 Well, 100%.

00:19:03.560 It's their front man, the Podestas.

00:19:07.680 Okay, yeah.

00:19:08.060 But then, look, they're all singing from exactly the same.

00:19:11.020 They all saw what we saw.

00:19:12.300 Wasn't there also, didn't Connor say something about that one of the publications had already prepared a headline like this on the 25th?

00:19:24.060 I mean, that could just be basically hedging your bets.

00:19:26.420 I think it was.

00:19:27.040 But, you know, it could suggest something more.

00:19:30.860 Yeah.

00:19:31.100 I think that what they did is prepared two articles.

00:19:33.800 Biden smashed it.

00:19:35.140 Biden ruined it.

00:19:35.960 Probably.

00:19:36.660 Depending on how well his medication took that day.

00:19:38.820 Because this is the sort of thing they've done in the past.

00:19:40.920 And, of course, this isn't new.

00:19:42.020 I remember when I was young, I don't know, pretty damn young, like 13 years old, maybe 14, 15 years old, and noticing, going into a newsagent one day, and noticing that all the newspapers ran the exact same picture.

00:19:55.800 It might have been something about Diana or something.

00:19:58.000 It was the 90s.

00:19:58.700 I can't remember what it was, but all the newspapers were running with the exact same image and more or less the same headline.

00:20:06.580 And I remember thinking, oh, so they must be communicating.

00:20:10.120 That's not coincidence.

00:20:11.080 It's not by luck.

00:20:12.940 And, again, of course, they either, there's some sort of copying off each other thing, or, in fact, their editors literally just call each other or text each other in some sort of group or something or other.

00:20:26.160 Can I just draw to something else, one of the other links that you've got here, which was this that happened as well, just in the past week, that's been updated, where Snopes, seemingly out of nowhere, decided that they were going to fact-check all of the old news reports that came out back in 2017 following Charlottesville and saying, actually, no, we were fibbing a bit here.

00:20:51.540 Yeah.

00:20:52.020 Not even just a bit.

00:20:52.640 Whoa. 0.98

00:20:53.160 It was a total liar. 0.99

00:20:55.880 Yeah, we knew it.

00:20:56.500 They've always got to try and hedge it, though, don't they?

00:20:59.160 Again, for anyone only listening to the audio, it's the old story that Trump said there were very fine people on both sides of the Charlottesville thing, wasn't it?

00:21:06.300 Yeah.

00:21:06.420 And that was spun into that he was calling neo-Nazis very fine people, which, if anyone watches the clip, you merely need to watch the clip.

00:21:13.340 That's not what he was saying.

00:21:14.180 I mean, he literally says, I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis.

00:21:16.880 Yeah.

00:21:17.280 There are very fine people on both sides.

00:21:18.840 And so he explicitly carves them out of what he's saying.

00:21:22.280 And, of course, they've lied about it for the last, what, eight years?

00:21:24.520 And snopes the fact-checkers now for some reason.

00:21:28.220 Yeah. 0.86

00:21:28.700 It's like when I said the Scots were like a turd that can't flush. 1.00

00:21:31.860 Yeah.

00:21:32.000 I said explicitly before that, what I am about to say is with my tongue firmly stuck in my cheek.

00:21:37.520 And then said it.

00:21:38.580 And they just quote the incendiary bit.

00:21:40.620 It's a classic thing.

00:21:41.640 Yeah, classic thing.

00:21:43.420 But we know also that the corporate mainstream media, they're so cynical.

00:21:49.080 They will sit on a story for months or years.

00:21:52.500 Epstein.

00:21:53.200 Right.

00:21:54.280 Say they've got something in their pocket about...

00:21:56.440 Jimmy Savant.

00:21:57.020 I don't know, something like Russell Brand.

00:21:59.040 Brooming games.

00:21:59.540 There's something about...

00:22:00.060 Yeah, there's loads.

00:22:00.720 And they'll just sit on it until it's their moment, the moment that they pick to do this stuff,

00:22:07.020 because they consider themselves sort of masters of the universe or whatever,

00:22:09.840 or that they control the news cycle absolutely and the message and all that sort of thing.

00:22:15.720 So it's what they do.

00:22:17.080 It is politically timed.

00:22:17.540 That's what they do.

00:22:18.000 Of course it is.

00:22:18.700 Of course it is.

00:22:19.320 They are political agents that have significant effect on the political discourse.

00:22:24.080 And so you're exactly right.

00:22:24.900 They sit on these stories in order to steer things in a certain way.

00:22:28.400 Oh, great example.

00:22:28.980 Do you remember last time in 2016 where the order of Trump saying you grab women by the crutch?

00:22:35.880 Yeah.

00:22:36.060 And they released that at sort of, what was it, a few days before the actual vote?

00:22:41.220 Right.

00:22:41.560 Or one week before the vote?

00:22:42.960 Yeah.

00:22:42.980 And they've been sitting on it for months or years or something, or at least months they've

00:22:47.060 been sitting on that.

00:22:48.080 Yeah.

00:22:48.320 So, yeah, it's absolutely what they do.

00:22:52.680 So, I mean, I've used up pretty much all my time here, but just to say, Trump has still

00:22:59.080 got it, obviously.

00:23:00.100 There was no doubt about that.

00:23:01.180 He's the same old Trump.

00:23:02.780 And Biden, it's looking bad, isn't it?

00:23:07.000 It's looking bad.

00:23:07.640 I still probably wouldn't put any money, unless I've got very good odds, on him being removed.

00:23:14.140 And let's say it's Gavin Newsom, he's the heir apparent.

00:23:18.880 I would suspect unless he actually dies, it will be him.

00:23:24.300 But maybe.

00:23:25.640 Maybe.

00:23:26.740 I'd like to see how that turns out.

00:23:28.760 If they do let Biden take it all the way to November, I don't think it's going to end

00:23:33.620 well.

00:23:34.640 I mean, just a quick thing to finish on.

00:23:37.200 Like, if you'd asked me five years ago, is Biden going to get this kind of coverage from

00:23:42.100 the mainstream left-wing press?

00:23:44.140 I'd be like, no, obviously not.

00:23:45.400 They're totally on message, 100% message discipline.

00:23:49.540 And now it's just every single one of them is like, okay, look, this is just, this is over

00:23:53.180 and there's nothing we can do about it.

00:23:54.840 But so I would say that, you know.

00:23:58.220 And it is interesting to see that Gavin Newsom himself will say, no, no, no, we've got to

00:24:02.340 stand behind the party.

00:24:03.060 We've got to stand behind our president.

00:24:04.240 One of two things is happening there.

00:24:05.520 One, what his words were genuine, and that's what he means.

00:24:08.380 And therefore, there's a breakdown in message or strategy between the Democratic Party and

00:24:13.380 the corporate mainstream media.

00:24:14.560 Or he's just saying, that's what you say.

00:24:17.960 Yeah.

00:24:18.320 That's what you say.

00:24:19.160 Because often it's almost a cliche or a truism that anyone wants to be a leader when

00:24:24.600 asked, you say no.

00:24:28.280 Because, well, hubris and arrogance and all sorts of things.

00:24:33.580 So it's definitely one of those two things.

00:24:36.440 But it does, again, if I had to sort of guess, I would imagine.

00:24:40.320 Newsom seemed genuine to me in that response.

00:24:42.940 Yeah, he did to me.

00:24:43.440 So maybe, yeah, I don't think necessarily. 0.99

00:24:46.080 He's an American psycho, isn't he? 0.97

00:24:47.400 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 0.97

00:24:49.200 So, and also, I wouldn't be surprised, though, if there is some sort of breakdown in communication

00:24:55.240 or, you know, they're not all exactly on the same page.

00:24:58.960 Whatever cabals run the corporate mainstream media and the cabal that runs the Democratic

00:25:03.760 Party, they're not the same thing.

00:25:07.500 They're not the same people.

00:25:09.280 They will have slightly different goals and ideas and tactics and all sorts of things.

00:25:17.000 So maybe they are sort of locking horns a bit right now.

00:25:19.900 I mean, this is all to not consider any reinforcement that could go on.

00:25:27.100 Well, I mean, one thing that I think it's important to remember is they've got to maintain a level

00:25:31.000 of sort of plausible deniability about anything they do, right?

00:25:33.660 So, if Joe Biden literally comes up and dies on stage, they can't just print, Joe Biden

00:25:38.720 wins election, wins debate, right?

00:25:41.480 I'd love to see the spin there.

00:25:43.980 Well, I mean, yeah, exactly.

00:25:44.920 That's the point.

00:25:45.540 And I think this is, we've reached that kind of event horizon.

00:25:48.900 On either arm.

00:25:50.320 Full-on weekend at Bernie's.

00:25:52.220 Well, it practically was.

00:25:53.940 Yeah, almost.

00:25:54.800 I know, but now we just go all the way.

00:25:57.640 Jump that shark.

00:25:59.080 The point is, this was, we've realized where the event horizon is here.

00:26:02.700 It's Biden literally being left alone to talk quietly for five minutes on his own that

00:26:08.180 has gotten to be like, okay, look, it's, we can't, we can't be the Pravda for Biden

00:26:12.280 anymore.

00:26:13.260 It makes us look not credible.

00:26:16.300 That level of plausible deniability would be completely destroyed and we can't, we can't

00:26:20.920 step over that boundary.

00:26:22.080 And I think that's what we're seeing here.

00:26:23.820 Well, one last thing for us, it'll bring this segment to an end.

00:26:26.120 Can you play that very last link?

00:26:27.480 I've just called it Jill Cringe.

00:26:28.900 Just to leave you all on a, on a touch of cringe.

00:26:31.700 Watch this.

00:26:34.820 Joe, you did such a great job.

00:26:36.960 You answered every question.

00:26:39.060 You knew all the facts.

00:26:43.220 And let me ask the crowd, what did Trump do?

00:26:47.840 Why?

00:26:50.240 Biden looks like he's away with the theory.

00:26:52.280 Yeah, he's no idea what's going on there, is he?

00:26:55.620 She is out of her mind.

00:26:57.860 Yeah. 0.99

00:26:58.340 She's out of her tiny mind. 0.98

00:27:00.440 Maybe it's the, maybe it's the quality of the picture as well, but it looks like Biden's 0.92

00:27:03.980 face has been photoshopped just a few inches off of his skull.

00:27:08.960 It looks really strange.

00:27:12.560 Jesus.

00:27:13.560 Anyway.

00:27:13.820 Right, well, I've got some bad news, chaps. 1.00

00:27:19.040 It's over.

00:27:20.280 It's never been more over.

00:27:21.680 So over?

00:27:22.380 It's so over for Nigel Farage.

00:27:25.420 They have decided that they can't stop him on the facts, obviously, on the popular policies,

00:27:31.880 on Ukraine even.

00:27:33.800 Even though I think that was something of a slight tactical mistake, and in fact, he had

00:27:37.660 framed it incorrectly.

00:27:39.140 Unfortunately, it's not, he shouldn't have said, we provoke Putin.

00:27:42.900 What he should have said is, Putin's reaction was predictable, as in we, because then he's

00:27:47.960 not within sort of Putin's frame.

00:27:49.380 He doesn't sound like he's on his side, right?

00:27:51.540 But even then, that didn't destroy reform, that didn't destroy Farage's momentum, but

00:27:56.020 it has now finally happened because the media and the politicians have come out and been

00:28:01.380 like, you know what? 0.97

00:28:02.260 Nigel Farage is a racist. 0.99

00:28:04.920 Oh, there we go. 0.99

00:28:06.760 It's just, it's just over.

00:28:07.840 I mean, don't worry about it.

00:28:08.600 Like, he's putting...

00:28:09.600 That's the end, isn't it, when you say that?

00:28:11.080 Exactly.

00:28:11.520 I mean, look at a thousand people in Wareside at lunchtime to see Nigel Farage.

00:28:16.180 No, it's over. 0.93

00:28:17.000 Guys, guys, do you not know he's a racist?

00:28:20.340 LBC have called him a racist.

00:28:21.980 Well, there we go.

00:28:22.740 And they're all like, oh my goodness, I had no idea.

00:28:25.420 I'm going home.

00:28:26.580 Have you included in this our old pal Narinder, her tweet about it?

00:28:31.900 I haven't.

00:28:32.360 Oh my God, a picture of Nigel Farage waving at a crowd.

00:28:35.340 I did see that.

00:28:36.140 Do you know who else waved at crowds in photographs?

00:28:39.560 Oh, dear Lord.

00:28:40.620 But I did reply to her saying, well, look, he was in a plane crash.

00:28:43.620 Maybe, you know, maybe he's having trouble with his motion.

00:28:46.280 I don't know.

00:28:47.120 Or maybe he was just waving.

00:28:48.780 Yeah, maybe he was just waving.

00:28:49.600 Were there actual pyrotechnics on that stage?

00:28:51.440 No, we'll get into it in a second.

00:28:52.860 He was making his WWE entrance Goldberg style.

00:28:56.240 Before we find out just how over it is for Nigel Farage, on the 4th of July on Rumble and

00:29:02.420 LotusEats.com, we're going to be doing a Zero Seats election stream where we're going to

00:29:06.840 be going all night.

00:29:07.580 We're going to have loads of great guests and sign up with code Zero Seats for 50% off

00:29:13.060 for three months for a gold subscription and send us gold video comments.

00:29:16.320 Literally get your camera out, record a message, and we'll play them on the stream.

00:29:20.080 It's going to be great.

00:29:20.860 But anyway, yeah, so Nigel Farage, just out mad, you know, like loads of people.

00:29:27.460 I like to come with another zip line.

00:29:29.420 Yeah, a French short mic sort of thing.

00:29:32.080 As you can see, there are indeed a huge whistling crowd, pyrotechnics.

00:29:38.080 He's pulling up the stops.

00:29:39.640 And again, this was lunchtime on a Thursday afternoon or like 11 o'clock on a Thursday afternoon.

00:29:45.680 Like this, this is a huge crowd.

00:29:47.420 Like this is unusual for politicians to be able to draw large crowds in Britain.

00:29:51.680 It's not like America with Trump, you know, and especially in like, you know, Northeastern

00:29:57.260 seaside towns.

00:29:58.380 We simply don't have political rallies where there's actual enthusiasm.

00:30:02.700 I don't think I've ever seen one in my life.

00:30:05.280 In all honesty, that's not exaggeration.

00:30:07.000 I know, I know.

00:30:07.780 So, um.

00:30:08.940 Like Tony Blair didn't even do that sort of thing.

00:30:10.420 Yeah, no, right.

00:30:11.120 Yeah, yeah.

00:30:11.420 The last one.

00:30:12.060 Maybe the Fabian Society might be.

00:30:13.920 Yeah, maybe.

00:30:14.440 But just normal people.

00:30:15.820 Yeah.

00:30:15.960 Just normal working class, middle class people.

00:30:17.620 Yeah, yeah.

00:30:18.480 I've never seen it before.

00:30:19.580 It doesn't happen.

00:30:20.180 I will just say one thing, because what have we got tagged in this?

00:30:23.620 Who have we got tagged?

00:30:24.760 We've got old Boomer Tice.

00:30:26.420 Oh, yeah, yeah.

00:30:26.880 I will say, if Nigel really wants to win over my complete trust, drop Tice.

00:30:33.580 He can't.

00:30:34.180 Tice is funding the podcast.

00:30:35.020 I know.

00:30:36.420 But I wish.

00:30:38.160 I wish upon the stars.

00:30:41.160 Please drop Boomer Tice.

00:30:43.280 I don't think Tice is evil.

00:30:45.520 I think he's fairly well-meaning.

00:30:46.880 I just think he's very much a creature of the Westminster bubble, right?

00:30:50.160 And so, you know.

00:30:51.680 I mean.

00:30:51.960 One of the things that you mentioned with the whole Ukraine thing that Farage was talking about

00:30:56.540 was the thing for me, as a young, fighting age male, is that it gives me some hope that,

00:31:04.440 oh, if Farage gets into any position of influence, he doesn't want to send me off to die,

00:31:08.580 unlike all of the other major Western leaders.

00:31:11.740 I don't want to die for pride parades in Ukraine.

00:31:14.360 Nope.

00:31:14.580 What about gay rights in Uganda, Harry?

00:31:16.980 Whereas Boomer Tice, whispering in his ear, is maybe going, send them, send them, Nigel. 1.00

00:31:22.780 Kill them all. 1.00

00:31:23.940 I'm sure you won't. 1.00

00:31:25.060 I think we'll argue that you're in a protected profession.

00:31:28.980 See, I don't want my mates to go and die, either.

00:31:31.660 Well, they can be in our protected...

00:31:32.780 I'll hire a lot of people.

00:31:33.980 There you go.

00:31:34.800 That's all right. 0.99

00:31:35.280 We need to liberate Crimea so they can have gay marriage. 1.00

00:31:38.520 Yeah. 0.98

00:31:38.780 Well, I mean, that is...

00:31:39.780 Of course.

00:31:40.380 It's important.

00:31:41.340 David Cameron's pitch there.

00:31:43.660 Literally.

00:31:44.420 If we don't do that, Poland will fall to Soviet... 0.98

00:31:47.760 Sorry, I mean Russian tank divisions.

00:31:49.460 That's the next thing.

00:31:50.400 I mean, we already let that happen to Poles. 1.00

00:31:51.820 Anyway, so a poll came out yesterday from MRP that had Reform winning 18 seats, which

00:31:59.280 is pretty great, considering they started with, well, he might get Clackton.

00:32:03.140 It's like, okay, well, he might get three or four seats.

00:32:05.640 Okay.

00:32:06.320 Well, he might get 18 seats.

00:32:07.760 It's like, okay, well, calm down.

00:32:09.060 There was actually another one that had them much higher, like somewhere like 60 seats,

00:32:12.440 but I think that's a bit optimistic.

00:32:16.320 My prediction right now is seven.

00:32:18.500 Yeah, yeah.

00:32:18.800 I mean, well, just honestly, for me, for us being an MP...

00:32:22.440 Even getting one seat is a big win.

00:32:25.400 Seven seats, that'd be nice.

00:32:26.660 As he points out, it's a beachhead in Parliament.

00:32:28.580 That's good.

00:32:29.000 18 seats?

00:32:30.100 Okay, that's pretty good.

00:32:31.200 Starting to get there, yeah.

00:32:32.060 I'm still at six days or so, so, you know, who knows where this goes?

00:32:35.480 But yeah, so you can see that Farage is still going up.

00:32:39.400 Things are still going well. 0.95

00:32:41.320 Nothing else has yet stopped him, and so, obviously, he's a racist.

00:32:45.620 Actually, it wasn't Farage himself that was the racist.

00:32:47.920 It was someone else in his party, or someone canvassing for him.

00:32:51.840 Found evidence of anti-migrant rhetoric.

00:32:54.420 Oh, no, not that thing that's in their manifesto.

00:32:57.020 Not in the Reform Party, or the Labour Party, or the Conservative Party, or the SDP, or the

00:33:04.060 English Democrats.

00:33:04.680 I mean, it's not in, say, you know, the Greens or the Lib Dems, obviously, or the SNP.

00:33:09.380 But literally, every sensible party in this country that has a real shot of doing very well is anti-migrant at this point.

00:33:17.940 Because migration has been ridiculous in Britain, and I'm not going to relitigate it. 1.00

00:33:21.820 But the point is, anti-migrant rhetoric and homophobia. 0.92

00:33:26.800 Oh, my goodness, we'd better watch this.

00:33:28.360 It's important.

00:33:28.740 We've gone undercover inside Nigel Farage's Reform UK campaign in Clacton, and we recorded

00:33:34.600 extremely offensive language, including this canvasser saying people seeking asylum should

00:33:40.420 be shot. 1.00

00:33:41.220 Get around the place there, yeah, with guns, on the f***ing boots, target practice. 1.00

00:33:45.920 F***ing, just show them. 0.99

00:33:47.020 Racist language was repeated. 1.00

00:33:49.320 Right, so... 0.95

00:33:50.260 Racist.

00:33:51.440 Just want to be clear.

00:33:54.520 We don't think that asylum seekers should be shot.

00:33:57.560 They should just be sent home.

00:33:59.660 As in, they've gone into boats illegally in France, a safe country.

00:34:04.160 They've broken into our country.

00:34:06.000 And rather than the Royal Navy or the Coast Guard picking them up and bringing them here,

00:34:10.040 they should pick them up and take them back.

00:34:11.680 It's literally as simple.

00:34:12.500 I will say, without condoning, that from conversations that I've had, the sentiment of put sea mines

00:34:21.220 in the channel...

00:34:21.740 Why isn't the Navy dealing with this yet?

00:34:23.560 It isn't exactly fringe.

00:34:26.760 Yeah.

00:34:27.160 Without condoning.

00:34:28.300 No, no, that's totally true.

00:34:29.780 Obviously, we don't condone the idea that we should just be shooting people coming across.

00:34:34.640 But as you said, it's not a fringe belief.

00:34:37.740 Lots of people around the country...

00:34:38.680 Well, I tweeted, we should deploy HMS Prince of Wales, our aircraft carrier, and 4-2 Commando,

00:34:45.000 Royal Marines.

00:34:45.800 Sure.

00:34:46.120 Didn't say anything about machine gunning anybody.

00:34:48.240 No, obviously.

00:34:48.620 We'll just take their little dinghies around, drop them on the French beach.

00:34:53.060 Yeah.

00:34:53.260 We should just literally, by force, just drop them.

00:34:54.780 The Marines are basically there to make sure no one on our side gets hurt.

00:34:59.020 Take the RNLI out of the equation.

00:35:00.700 If the French Navy try and stop us, then maybe 4-2 Commando can lock a lane.

00:35:06.960 Yeah, but even then, that's not shooting the asylum seekers.

00:35:09.140 Right, yeah, that's what I mean.

00:35:09.840 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:35:10.620 That's a war with France. 0.58

00:35:11.600 Yeah.

00:35:12.300 But someone's got to do the Father Ted meme. 0.94

00:35:15.460 I hear you're a racist now. 0.89

00:35:16.580 Oh, yeah, yeah. 0.57

00:35:17.200 That's got to happen.

00:35:18.080 Someone must have already done it.

00:35:19.100 Yeah, and so let's carry on for a bit, actually.

00:35:21.600 ...eatedly used.

00:35:22.940 Here, directed at the Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak. 0.92

00:35:25.880 What the f*** have we got? 0.96

00:35:27.140 It was good, isn't it? 0.99

00:35:28.240 And homophobia.

00:35:29.340 Well, hang on a second.

00:35:31.000 Rishi Sunak's an Indian.

00:35:32.740 Yeah, right.

00:35:33.180 That's the ultimate insult for him, then, isn't it?

00:35:35.320 Yeah, even more offensive.

00:35:37.220 Yeah, but, you know, I mean, let's be fair. 0.98

00:35:39.500 Rishi Sunak is useless.

00:35:40.920 But, yes, he used rude language to express that. 0.95

00:35:44.200 Fascinating.

00:35:45.360 I'm sure the voters in Clacton are all like,

00:35:47.780 well, I can't believe he insulted the installed Indian Prime Minister of this country

00:35:52.340 who we didn't vote for.

00:35:53.980 Unbelievable.

00:35:54.660 That's my vote for reform.

00:35:55.900 Out.

00:35:56.820 Nonsense.

00:35:57.520 Let's go.

00:35:57.840 Homophobia from Farage's inner circle. 0.99

00:36:01.000 You see that f***ing degenerate flag on the front on it? 0.98

00:36:03.380 What the old bill doing promoting that flag? 0.99

00:36:05.820 Right.

00:36:06.660 So, five flags on cop cars.

00:36:09.060 That's not homophobia.

00:36:10.640 That's not wrong, either.

00:36:12.460 They should be politically neutral.

00:36:13.960 They shouldn't have those on.

00:36:15.300 Nothing wrong with that whatsoever.

00:36:17.480 Justice should be blind.

00:36:19.340 100%.

00:36:19.780 It should not be politicised.

00:36:20.960 But, as you can see, she's really excited that we've revealed offensive stuff.

00:36:25.120 Let's watch.

00:36:25.540 We've previously revealed offensive, racist comments made by some reform candidates.

00:36:30.700 They've since been dropped by the party.

00:36:32.820 Farage's campaign in Clacton carefully manages media access.

00:36:36.460 So, we wanted to see what it's really like at the grassroots.

00:36:39.420 Right, so they snuck in with a plant and recorded a guy saying the sort of things you'd hear in a pub.

00:36:48.700 Saying things that the reform voters are already thinking.

00:36:52.880 Just offensive as well.

00:36:54.480 Well, I find her eyebrows offensive. 0.94

00:36:56.000 Yeah, but I don't care what she finds offensive.

00:36:59.700 The thing is, again, I've said this before.

00:37:04.160 You'd be like, hey, look, this guy said this thing.

00:37:06.420 Isn't that bad?

00:37:07.360 And these guys say, oh, look, that guy said that thing.

00:37:10.200 You know, there's two sides to every story on this.

00:37:13.660 Well, you're saying the Streisand effect.

00:37:15.340 Not even just the Streisand effect.

00:37:17.540 More, when you say, look, I'm a far left, basically a commie.

00:37:22.060 Isn't this thing bad?

00:37:23.120 And they're holding up literally the most base thing you've ever had.

00:37:25.180 Oh, right, right.

00:37:25.740 It's like, well.

00:37:26.400 I was thinking that same thing.

00:37:27.720 Only if you think that's a bad thing.

00:37:31.420 I'm sure there are lots of boomers in Clacton who do not think, actually, that's a bad thing. 0.86

00:37:36.320 And who actually do kind of agree with the sentiments being expressed.

00:37:40.160 So, just saying, looking forward to the next Clacton poll.

00:37:42.860 Yeah, I mean, from the last comment,

00:37:44.560 and I certainly don't like police cars driving around, brandishing a flag that says,

00:37:48.860 oh, they're happy to support degenerate pride parades in the middle of the street 0.85

00:37:53.260 where children can go up to half-naked men attempting to sodomize one another.

00:37:57.140 Yeah, I don't want that.

00:37:58.460 I don't want any support of that whatsoever from the police.

00:38:02.040 Yeah, exactly.

00:38:02.660 And, you know, even if you say, well, it's just because you don't like the thing.

00:38:06.520 Okay, maybe.

00:38:07.540 But also, there's a more objective complaint,

00:38:09.720 which is the police are promoting a political position.

00:38:12.280 And they should not be promoting a political position.

00:38:14.540 So, even if it wasn't just that I don't like the flag,

00:38:18.040 they shouldn't have any flag on them, apart from the British flag, I suppose.

00:38:21.580 But anyway, so, who is this chap?

00:38:23.580 It was a chap called Andrew Parker.

00:38:25.760 And people very quickly noticed that he is an actor.

00:38:28.720 Hmm.

00:38:30.580 Interesting.

00:38:31.440 Now, I just want to be clear.

00:38:32.660 That doesn't mean he can't be a legit member of Reform.

00:38:35.820 But it does look a bit sus, since Channel 4 have already snuck in one person.

00:38:42.000 What prevents them from sneaking in two people?

00:38:45.200 Well, apparently not much, right?

00:38:47.580 So, again, looks very, very sus.

00:38:50.660 And just to go back to the guy's previous...

00:38:55.820 So, I think it's worth listening to the guy's accent when he's talking,

00:39:00.800 because this is interesting. 0.99

00:39:02.040 This canvasser saying people seeking asylum should be shot. 1.00

00:39:05.960 Get the young recruits there, yeah, with guns, on the f***ing beach, target practice, f***ing... 1.00

00:39:11.040 Right, so he sounds like a London cockney gangster or something, right? 0.98

00:39:16.800 He's got a very rough, working-class accent.

00:39:18.840 Just very interesting.

00:39:19.860 Or Essex.

00:39:20.640 I mean, Clacton is in Essex.

00:39:22.100 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:39:22.860 But he's got...

00:39:23.240 Isn't it?

00:39:23.700 Yeah, he is, yeah.

00:39:24.440 Yeah, yeah.

00:39:24.760 But he's got that kind of, you know, Southeastern, like, lad accent, you know,

00:39:31.420 sort of boy's accent or something.

00:39:33.360 Right?

00:39:33.960 Again, it's particular to the region.

00:39:35.840 Anyone who knows anything about accents in the UK will know.

00:39:38.840 It's particular to the region.

00:39:39.980 And so here is his acting reel, actually, which is quite interesting.

00:39:45.440 So he doesn't exactly sound the same.

00:40:13.040 So he sounds like he's putting on an accent.

00:40:14.920 In whichever way.

00:40:16.280 I mean, he does.

00:40:18.560 He does sound the same to me.

00:40:20.240 It sounds like the difference between a man talking at his camera in a more measured way

00:40:26.020 and a man out in public trying to project his voice speaking more forcefully.

00:40:30.160 I'm sorry, this seems way too conspiratorial to me.

00:40:34.880 There is nothing stopping it from this guy, yeah, being an actor who is also,

00:40:40.380 has political interests and an ideology in deciding to work with reform.

00:40:46.020 This seems a bit far-fetched to me.

00:40:49.280 I'm not saying that I believe or disbelieve this or anything like that.

00:40:52.240 This is the narrative that people are promoting around this.

00:40:56.340 And I just want to make this clear.

00:40:57.340 This is just what people are saying.

00:40:59.200 And I don't know.

00:40:59.940 I don't know either way.

00:41:00.740 I mean, Farage himself has been saying things like this.

00:41:05.160 So I thought it was worth pointing out.

00:41:06.920 But you might really, I mean, you're totally...

00:41:08.540 So Nigel's saying it doesn't add up.

00:41:10.580 Yeah.

00:41:11.520 We learn he's an actor.

00:41:12.880 His own website says he's well-spoken, but he does what he's talking about.

00:41:16.060 He's rough speaking.

00:41:17.140 The whole episode doesn't add up.

00:41:18.280 I don't know, right?

00:41:19.480 There is no conclusive evidence either way.

00:41:23.200 But Charlie Peters from GB News said that he'd spoken to Andrew Parker 0.96

00:41:27.360 and said these theories are total rubbish.

00:41:29.820 He claims he was goaded by the undercover reporter 0.95

00:41:32.120 and he was making horrible comments in a jokey atmosphere,

00:41:34.740 but absolutely rejects any suggestion that he was a pain actor set up

00:41:37.400 to make reform look bad.

00:41:39.240 Entirely possible.

00:41:40.040 Who knows?

00:41:41.240 From my perspective, Farage just seems to be trying to basically

00:41:46.660 get some distance between himself and this guy by fanning this theory.

00:41:51.740 But to me, reform has already been caught out platforming people

00:41:58.940 who have, not to say anything bad in my current company.

00:42:03.260 Terrible views about the Scots.

00:42:03.560 I know.

00:42:05.000 Platforming insensitive people who would dare to say nasty things 0.97

00:42:09.120 that upset shitlib journeys, journalists.

00:42:13.340 So, I mean, it doesn't seem anywhere out of the realm of possibility

00:42:16.900 that this guy is legit.

00:42:17.980 And I feel that this is a real reach that Nigel is trying to push.

00:42:23.720 That, oh, well, you know, he's nothing to do.

00:42:25.220 Oh, it must have been a setup.

00:42:26.300 I mean, come on, just own it.

00:42:28.060 Just own it.

00:42:28.820 The same way that Nigel, to be fair to him, owned when that guy a few weeks ago

00:42:33.160 was caught out having said in 2022 that we should have accepted Hitler's peace offers 0.54

00:42:37.100 in World War II.

00:42:39.500 Nigel has disavowed and said he vehemently disagrees,

00:42:42.540 but that people should have the right to say their opinions.

00:42:45.960 So, this just feels clumsy to me.

00:42:48.820 I agree.

00:42:50.280 Anyway, so...

00:42:51.360 There we go.

00:42:53.440 So, Farage was doorstopped on his campaign about this,

00:42:57.260 and this was his response.

00:42:59.080 Would you apologise to the Prime Minister for the appalling, racist way

00:43:03.700 that one of your campaigners spoke about Rishi Sunan?

00:43:06.440 So racist.

00:43:07.700 Do you apologise to the Prime Minister?

00:43:09.420 It was horrible.

00:43:10.360 That's not quite an apology, is it?

00:43:12.380 You can't go.

00:43:13.060 How much further can I go?

00:43:14.280 Of course this isn't a apology, it was horrible.

00:43:15.900 I don't know who this bloke is,

00:43:17.520 somebody I met once years ago.

00:43:19.540 I mean, awful.

00:43:20.680 Horrible.

00:43:21.440 Horrible.

00:43:21.960 Almost as bad as the Labour candidate in Clacton 0.98

00:43:24.940 and his slurs on white people.

00:43:26.440 Have you covered that?

00:43:27.620 I'm here to focus on...

00:43:28.380 No, no, no.

00:43:28.740 Have you...

00:43:29.140 That's a no.

00:43:30.420 No, of course not.

00:43:31.540 Yeah.

00:43:31.840 Why would you cover that?

00:43:32.480 Cover the Labour...

00:43:33.140 No, no.

00:43:33.500 We scrutinise all of the parties and their campaigns.

00:43:36.180 No, no.

00:43:36.740 But if you are appalled by this, as you say you are,

00:43:39.380 why are you trying to deflect?

00:43:40.580 Have you covered...

00:43:41.060 Why are you trying to deflect if you are...

00:43:43.180 If I was in any sort of position like this,

00:43:49.460 I would just simply not speak to any corporate mainstream media.

00:43:53.160 Do you remember one time Trump was taking some questions

00:43:56.160 and he was like,

00:43:56.680 well, who are you from?

00:43:57.460 And they say the BBC or they say CNN.

00:43:59.660 He's just like, fake news.

00:44:00.780 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:44:01.140 You're fake news.

00:44:02.040 Yeah.

00:44:02.200 I would do...

00:44:03.500 I just wouldn't speak to them.

00:44:04.500 I would view them as an enemy.

00:44:07.100 The enemy.

00:44:07.680 They are the enemy.

00:44:08.280 And I think Farage understands that.

00:44:09.680 The thing is, I mean, he's fairly well diffused at his.

00:44:11.760 Oh, that was horrible.

00:44:12.640 They'd agree with that.

00:44:13.040 Yeah, no.

00:44:13.300 He's a master.

00:44:14.000 I'm not saying he did anything wrong.

00:44:15.320 I'm just saying if it were me,

00:44:17.000 I'd be like, no, I'm not talking to you.

00:44:18.380 Get away from me.

00:44:19.360 But like what...

00:44:20.200 I'll do a podcast and talk about it.

00:44:23.020 Wait for that to come out.

00:44:24.320 I'm not going to answer your question

00:44:25.420 while you hassle me in a car park.

00:44:28.180 But why is she going any further with this?

00:44:29.740 Do you have a podcast?

00:44:30.400 Yeah, yeah, now what?

00:44:32.080 Okay, well, I mean, you know,

00:44:33.480 I want to keep pressing the point 0.93

00:44:34.620 to make sure that you know that I think you're a racist.

00:44:37.100 But Farage does well here and goes on the attack

00:44:38.880 because, I mean, he is completely right

00:44:41.280 about the Labour candidate

00:44:43.680 that they decided to run in Clangton 0.98

00:44:45.200 genuinely seems to hate white people 0.96

00:44:47.740 and seems to kind of want to be fighting 0.98

00:44:49.920 a kind of race war.

00:44:52.300 And it's hard to see... 0.76

00:44:53.740 His favourite drink is white man tears.

00:44:55.960 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:44:56.840 I mean, he literally says...

00:44:57.940 His favourite drink.

00:44:58.680 Oh, there you go. 1.00

00:44:59.080 He wants to drink the tears of white people. 1.00

00:45:01.280 I mean, like, this is... 0.99

00:45:02.540 This is directly from it, right?

00:45:05.400 So, the original post read...

00:45:08.140 Someone had posted,

00:45:09.320 going into 2020,

00:45:10.300 I'm going to continue to be vocal

00:45:11.400 about how to tackle racism

00:45:12.600 and the fact that I drink white man tears

00:45:14.740 on a regular basis,

00:45:16.100 to which their candidate,

00:45:17.860 which is Javon Owusu Nephal,

00:45:21.540 said,

00:45:23.000 my favourite drink.

00:45:24.260 And it's like,

00:45:24.540 oh, that's lovely, thanks.

00:45:26.720 Javon.

00:45:28.300 Javon, sorry.

00:45:29.560 First of the gratitude.

00:45:30.860 That's classic Labour for you,

00:45:32.460 isn't it?

00:45:33.340 Yeah.

00:45:33.520 So they're going to give you a kid

00:45:34.720 that's in his 20s,

00:45:36.100 who I believe is gay,

00:45:38.480 not that that matters, 0.96

00:45:39.460 but is a foreign extraction,

00:45:43.360 whether it's second generation

00:45:44.200 or whatever,

00:45:44.700 and obviously hates

00:45:46.600 our values,

00:45:48.840 our race and our values,

00:45:50.680 he despises.

00:45:52.380 So isn't that classic Labour?

00:45:53.880 And that's the person

00:45:54.720 we're going...

00:45:55.840 you need to vote for.

00:45:57.060 But that's the point, right?

00:45:57.780 So Channel 4 have to go,

00:45:58.960 oh, we're going to sneak people

00:46:00.020 into Farage's thing.

00:46:01.120 Oh, look, I've got him

00:46:01.920 saying something racist.

00:46:02.960 The Labour candidate

00:46:04.020 just comes out, 1.00

00:46:04.540 yeah, I hate white people, 1.00

00:46:05.500 by the way, 1.00

00:46:05.860 love drinking their tears.

00:46:06.860 Now what?

00:46:07.400 And Channel 4 are just crickets.

00:46:08.900 It's like, sorry, 0.96

00:46:10.320 they're openly racist.

00:46:12.100 It's like, oh, 0.95

00:46:12.580 reformers, secretly racist.

00:46:13.760 It's like, well, 0.92

00:46:14.480 which one's worse?

00:46:15.620 By your own standard,

00:46:16.980 you know?

00:46:18.260 And I mean, this guy,

00:46:19.060 this guy's got some

00:46:20.040 wild takes, actually.

00:46:22.740 This one bothers me so much.

00:46:24.660 He says,

00:46:25.080 I feel like I'm doing this

00:46:26.200 for every black and brown

00:46:27.020 person in the country,

00:46:28.440 running against Nigel Farage.

00:46:30.420 It's like, okay,

00:46:30.820 so against who, though?

00:46:33.040 You're running for every...

00:46:34.420 standing for every

00:46:35.260 black and brown person

00:46:36.320 in the country 0.99

00:46:36.680 against the white people

00:46:38.860 of Clankton?

00:46:39.900 Like, you've...

00:46:41.720 The white people 0.94

00:46:42.800 of the country?

00:46:43.760 Well, possibly,

00:46:44.700 but I mean,

00:46:44.960 he's running in Clankton,

00:46:45.740 so let's narrow it a bit.

00:46:46.600 So you've got the 96%

00:46:48.000 white English Clankton,

00:46:49.480 and you're like,

00:46:49.940 yeah, I'm here running

00:46:50.880 for every black and brown

00:46:51.760 person in the country. 0.56

00:46:52.740 So against the whites 1.00

00:46:53.920 of Clankton,

00:46:54.600 you've decided to

00:46:55.880 put yourself up

00:46:57.020 as a representative

00:46:57.720 of the browns, right?

00:47:00.160 That's why...

00:47:00.980 Why is this a race issue?

00:47:02.600 Why can't you be like,

00:47:03.180 I'm Labour versus Conservative?

00:47:04.860 Right?

00:47:05.040 Because they have race

00:47:06.680 on their mind.

00:47:07.400 That's the way

00:47:07.820 he looks at things.

00:47:08.700 He said,

00:47:09.080 I drink white tears. 0.99

00:47:10.240 I don't like white people. 0.99

00:47:11.420 I'm running for the brown people 1.00

00:47:12.560 against the whites of Clankton. 0.89

00:47:14.180 It's like, okay,

00:47:15.400 how is this not racism?

00:47:17.460 Like, you know,

00:47:17.960 I hate being like,

00:47:19.660 oh, that's racist.

00:47:21.220 But it can't be considered

00:47:22.660 to be anything else.

00:47:24.500 And yet, oh,

00:47:25.420 you know,

00:47:25.740 this guy on Nigel Farage,

00:47:26.960 it wasn't even Farage

00:47:27.520 who said it,

00:47:28.180 guy on Farage's campaign

00:47:29.380 says this.

00:47:29.940 Could they not find

00:47:30.980 a 20-something commie

00:47:33.020 of colour,

00:47:34.820 LGBTQ,

00:47:35.980 who's disabled though?

00:47:38.600 He looks able-bodied.

00:47:40.080 We've not ticked

00:47:40.880 all the checkboxes.

00:47:42.260 Come on.

00:47:42.820 Yeah, I mean,

00:47:44.440 a bit ableist, really.

00:47:46.360 Yeah, yeah.

00:47:47.020 Good point.

00:47:47.960 Good point.

00:47:48.480 But, and so Farage,

00:47:49.500 of course,

00:47:49.920 pointed this out

00:47:50.680 being like,

00:47:50.980 well, hang on a second.

00:47:51.640 This guy's a bit racist, 0.52

00:47:52.840 isn't he? 0.76

00:47:53.060 Well, they don't care about that.

00:47:55.780 But Keir Sama

00:47:56.940 had a response to this,

00:47:58.000 which I thought was interesting.

00:47:59.200 He said,

00:47:59.480 well, I'm shocked

00:48:00.300 by the clearly racist comments

00:48:01.480 made by these campaigners,

00:48:03.160 but refuses to call

00:48:03.800 Nigel Farage himself a racist.

00:48:05.720 And he's like,

00:48:05.980 yeah, well,

00:48:06.540 I mean,

00:48:07.400 have you been listening

00:48:08.000 to Keir Starmer

00:48:08.680 talking recently?

00:48:10.260 He's lost the support

00:48:11.160 of the Bangladeshi community

00:48:12.240 because he's like,

00:48:12.660 yeah, the Bangladeshis 0.99

00:48:13.400 are going back.

00:48:15.080 Yeah.

00:48:15.760 It's okay.

00:48:17.360 So, interesting.

00:48:19.020 But he hasn't disavowed

00:48:21.240 his own candidate

00:48:22.140 being like,

00:48:22.820 I drink white man tears

00:48:25.140 and stuff like that.

00:48:25.580 He didn't distance himself

00:48:27.220 from that.

00:48:27.920 No one's like,

00:48:28.340 Keir,

00:48:28.600 your candidate in Clacton

00:48:30.520 is saying literally 0.96

00:48:31.720 he hates white people? 0.99

00:48:32.680 Are you going to stand by that? 0.99

00:48:34.200 Keir wasn't even asked.

00:48:35.860 Hasn't had to disavow it,

00:48:37.060 right?

00:48:37.460 But what's interesting

00:48:38.820 is not necessarily

00:48:40.340 what people say,

00:48:41.320 it's what people do

00:48:42.380 because they've decided

00:48:44.220 Clacton's a lost cause.

00:48:45.920 We decided to put 0.95

00:48:47.000 an anti-white racist 0.98

00:48:48.160 up against Nigel Farage 0.97

00:48:50.200 at this time

00:48:51.580 and in this place.

00:48:53.200 And for some reason,

00:48:54.480 it's going down

00:48:55.220 like a lead balloon.

00:48:56.600 Apparently,

00:48:57.220 Labour just think

00:48:57.760 that Clacton

00:48:58.220 is unwinnable

00:48:58.840 for them at this point,

00:49:00.180 which is good

00:49:00.880 and based

00:49:01.460 because it should be.

00:49:03.020 He has actually

00:49:03.800 been seconded

00:49:04.760 to the West Midlands.

00:49:07.760 They've exiled him.

00:49:10.820 I've never heard

00:49:11.620 of such a practice.

00:49:12.500 They've actually exiled him.

00:49:13.600 But he's not campaigned.

00:49:14.700 They can't move him

00:49:15.680 because it's all

00:49:16.280 locked in now.

00:49:17.280 So even if he dies

00:49:18.160 or something,

00:49:18.540 he's still on the ballot,

00:49:19.420 right?

00:49:19.980 But they're just like,

00:49:21.740 okay,

00:49:21.940 well,

00:49:22.080 there's just no point

00:49:22.980 having him wander around Clacton

00:49:24.500 for all these people

00:49:25.060 going,

00:49:25.360 no,

00:49:25.420 I'm not going to cry

00:49:25.980 for you,

00:49:26.260 mate.

00:49:26.600 You know,

00:49:26.840 you're going thirsty

00:49:27.440 today.

00:49:28.440 You know,

00:49:28.680 sorry,

00:49:29.240 dehydration is going

00:49:30.040 to be your problem,

00:49:30.860 not mine.

00:49:31.580 Pray for Joven.

00:49:32.700 Yeah,

00:49:32.980 yeah,

00:49:33.120 yeah.

00:49:33.540 Remember Joven.

00:49:35.280 So he's been sent

00:49:36.480 to the West Midlands

00:49:37.280 to presumably campaign

00:49:39.100 to enact his penance.

00:49:41.620 To post leaflets

00:49:42.380 in what I assume

00:49:43.020 is a more diverse constituency.

00:49:45.300 But yeah,

00:49:45.520 they do say that Labour

00:49:46.600 regard Clacton

00:49:47.440 as an unwinnable seat

00:49:48.280 with the party

00:49:48.680 gaining just 15%

00:49:49.720 of the vote in 2019.

00:49:51.600 So yeah,

00:49:52.260 I guess they were

00:49:53.980 just throwing him

00:49:54.600 to the walls

00:49:55.080 or something.

00:49:55.800 Someone's got to sit

00:49:56.640 there opposite Farage

00:49:57.380 and get trounced.

00:49:58.540 So good for them.

00:49:59.960 But I think

00:50:01.180 the final thing

00:50:02.220 is,

00:50:03.060 well,

00:50:03.640 okay,

00:50:04.380 you've outed Farage

00:50:05.400 and his team

00:50:05.840 as a racist.

00:50:08.600 Doesn't go down well

00:50:09.620 on the London dinner circuit.

00:50:11.220 Pice is red in the cheeks.

00:50:12.940 But how do the voters

00:50:13.920 in Clacton feel about it?

00:50:15.220 Well,

00:50:15.780 politics Joe

00:50:16.620 went there.

00:50:17.700 And I mean,

00:50:18.600 let's just,

00:50:19.140 let's just watch

00:50:20.000 this chat.

00:50:20.640 I'm an Englishman

00:50:22.360 in England

00:50:22.820 and I don't feel

00:50:23.680 like I'm an Englishman

00:50:24.740 in England.

00:50:25.220 Let's have it right.

00:50:26.740 And I'm not afraid

00:50:27.720 to say so.

00:50:28.780 What do you feel like?

00:50:29.920 I'm fed up with it.

00:50:30.700 I feel like a foreigner

00:50:31.660 in my own country.

00:50:32.860 That's what I feel like.

00:50:35.180 And do you think

00:50:35.940 that's fair?

00:50:37.180 Tell me why.

00:50:38.320 Why do you feel like that?

00:50:39.980 Well,

00:50:40.260 because we're surrounded

00:50:41.780 by foreigners.

00:50:43.240 That's why.

00:50:44.500 Here?

00:50:45.040 Not in Clacton.

00:50:46.000 Why do you think

00:50:46.440 everyone's moving out

00:50:47.460 of London

00:50:47.920 to move to

00:50:48.960 seaside towns?

00:50:50.380 Do you think

00:50:50.740 they want to?

00:50:51.760 Trevor Phillips,

00:50:52.720 the black politician, 0.60

00:50:53.860 yeah?

00:50:54.300 He said about people

00:50:55.420 moving out,

00:50:56.200 moving out,

00:50:56.860 moving out.

00:50:57.460 So is he racist?

00:50:58.460 Is he wrong?

00:50:59.500 Do you think

00:50:59.820 you've been left behind?

00:51:00.980 100%?

00:51:01.840 Of course we have.

00:51:03.740 And I,

00:51:04.180 do you know what?

00:51:05.540 I'm quite fair.

00:51:06.620 I don't care who you are,

00:51:07.900 but it needs to be fairness.

00:51:10.180 Yeah?

00:51:10.580 Like,

00:51:11.020 you know,

00:51:11.560 there's no fairness here.

00:51:13.440 We've got no voice.

00:51:15.080 And the Reform Party

00:51:16.240 are giving people

00:51:17.000 like us

00:51:17.600 a voice.

00:51:19.000 You've got half

00:51:19.540 of East London

00:51:20.320 living in Clacton.

00:51:21.520 Why?

00:51:22.140 If it was so good

00:51:22.960 in East London,

00:51:23.680 why aren't we all

00:51:24.240 still living there?

00:51:25.900 Why don't we all

00:51:26.780 still live in East London

00:51:27.740 if it's that great?

00:51:28.900 Because it ain't great,

00:51:29.960 is it?

00:51:31.180 Well,

00:51:31.560 is it an immigration problem?

00:51:33.440 Well,

00:51:33.620 you've been pushed out,

00:51:34.600 ain't you?

00:51:35.380 You know,

00:51:35.900 you've just been pushed out.

00:51:38.480 It's,

00:51:38.780 you know,

00:51:39.040 everyone knows,

00:51:40.000 no one wants to talk about it.

00:51:41.340 That's the problem.

00:51:42.020 I want to talk about it.

00:51:43.980 You know,

00:51:44.300 you get branded a racist.

00:51:45.520 My wife's from Calcutta,

00:51:47.080 yeah?

00:51:47.760 I've got half-caste cousins.

00:51:49.080 You're not politically correct.

00:51:50.200 You've got to say mixed-race.

00:51:51.500 I've brought up the old way, 0.89

00:51:54.040 you know,

00:51:54.560 mixed-race people

00:51:55.260 who's called half-caste,

00:51:56.300 yeah?

00:51:56.640 I've got black friends.

00:51:57.780 I've got all sorts of friends.

00:51:59.800 But as soon as you say anything,

00:52:01.320 and being called a racist now

00:52:03.160 is so boring.

00:52:04.160 I'll tell you that much,

00:52:05.160 it's boring.

00:52:06.860 Perfect response.

00:52:07.840 That's a proper Essex teaser, eh?

00:52:09.280 It's perfect.

00:52:10.700 It's just boring.

00:52:11.860 You know,

00:52:12.060 you're calling Nigel Farage a racist.

00:52:13.480 Well,

00:52:13.580 that's boring.

00:52:14.480 You know,

00:52:14.740 don't care.

00:52:15.600 They don't care.

00:52:16.840 And so you,

00:52:17.820 I mean,

00:52:18.160 there'll probably come a time

00:52:19.160 where they probably won't vote

00:52:20.340 for someone who hasn't been

00:52:21.360 called a racist by you

00:52:22.740 because they know

00:52:23.900 that that means

00:52:24.400 they're opposed to you.

00:52:25.500 Because this is my neck

00:52:26.400 of the woods,

00:52:26.980 really.

00:52:27.700 I grew up right in,

00:52:29.060 I grew up in Havering.

00:52:30.760 Spent nearly all my life

00:52:32.040 in Havering,

00:52:32.740 which is in between London

00:52:34.000 and Clacton,

00:52:34.860 more or less,

00:52:35.340 not quite exactly,

00:52:36.200 but anyway,

00:52:37.140 Essex.

00:52:37.960 Yeah.

00:52:38.200 So I know Essex.

00:52:39.200 I know the exodus

00:52:40.820 from the east end of London

00:52:42.500 out into Kent and Essex

00:52:44.140 and places.

00:52:45.300 And everything he said

00:52:46.320 is exactly,

00:52:47.920 honestly true.

00:52:49.140 Yeah.

00:52:49.320 It's just,

00:52:49.700 that's just real.

00:52:51.980 100%.

00:52:52.420 So yeah,

00:52:53.820 that's the voice

00:52:54.580 of the real people.

00:52:56.940 I agree.

00:52:57.360 And so this is why

00:52:58.060 I really don't think

00:52:58.700 calling Farage a racist

00:53:00.220 is actually going to

00:53:01.020 hurt his chances

00:53:01.820 all that much.

00:53:03.440 Yeah,

00:53:03.620 it's lost its power.

00:53:04.700 Yeah.

00:53:07.020 All right.

00:53:08.700 That's actually quite a good

00:53:09.920 little segue

00:53:11.080 into my segment.

00:53:12.600 Oh, is it?

00:53:13.260 Yeah,

00:53:13.640 it really is,

00:53:14.640 honestly.

00:53:15.280 But first,

00:53:16.260 before I get into the meat

00:53:17.480 of this segment,

00:53:19.040 first,

00:53:19.500 I will need to remind everybody

00:53:20.920 that yes,

00:53:21.400 we've got the election night

00:53:22.220 stream coming up

00:53:22.940 next Thursday.

00:53:24.220 We'll be running that

00:53:25.040 from seven o'clock,

00:53:25.840 I believe it is,

00:53:26.440 and it's free

00:53:27.100 to anybody who wants

00:53:28.300 to tune in.

00:53:29.240 But for the time being,

00:53:30.600 we are running a code,

00:53:31.920 a discount code

00:53:32.780 for the website,

00:53:33.480 Zero Seats.

00:53:35.240 And if you use that,

00:53:35.920 you'll get 50% off

00:53:37.020 of your first three months

00:53:37.900 when you sign up.

00:53:38.760 Or if you're already

00:53:39.600 signed up,

00:53:40.100 you will upgrade

00:53:40.840 to a gold subscription

00:53:42.280 for half price.

00:53:43.460 So remember to keep

00:53:44.420 that in mind.

00:53:45.300 And please tune in

00:53:46.700 for the election night stream.

00:53:47.460 It's going to be some

00:53:47.940 really good fun,

00:53:48.580 isn't it?

00:53:48.860 It's going to be great.

00:53:49.460 And we've got some

00:53:49.940 really special guests

00:53:50.680 coming in as well.

00:53:51.420 Not to spoil anything.

00:53:52.540 Has Dr. Nima Parvini

00:53:54.300 not trademarked

00:53:55.320 the Zero Seats thing?

00:53:56.300 I bet he wish he had...

00:53:57.040 Too late.

00:53:57.640 I bet he wish he had...

00:53:58.140 Too late.

00:53:59.280 Sorry, that's the market

00:54:00.500 for you.

00:54:01.180 You should have read

00:54:01.640 your own book.

00:54:05.780 You snooze,

00:54:06.800 you lose, Nima.

00:54:11.040 All right,

00:54:11.540 so as we discovered

00:54:12.600 at the end of the last segment,

00:54:13.800 people just don't really

00:54:14.580 care anymore

00:54:15.120 if you call them racist.

00:54:16.860 In fact,

00:54:17.460 some people,

00:54:18.600 Europeans in general,

00:54:19.640 are starting to go like,

00:54:21.020 okay, well,

00:54:21.500 if you call me racist,

00:54:22.600 okay,

00:54:23.100 you're standing up

00:54:24.280 for your people

00:54:25.600 as you identify them,

00:54:26.940 your group's rights.

00:54:28.400 Well,

00:54:28.700 if politics is just

00:54:29.820 a group activity now

00:54:31.100 where you split yourself

00:54:32.020 down racial lines,

00:54:33.540 whatever,

00:54:34.080 okay,

00:54:34.340 we'll do the same thing.

00:54:35.760 This is why in Germany 0.98

00:54:36.620 in particular,

00:54:37.260 you're getting things

00:54:37.780 like the Auslander-Raus

00:54:39.040 phenomenon,

00:54:40.540 which has been popping up.

00:54:41.320 There's a word for that.

00:54:41.800 Is it sectarianism?

00:54:44.520 Sectarian,

00:54:45.160 tribalism,

00:54:46.200 anything.

00:54:46.920 And this is something

00:54:47.540 that really doesn't

00:54:48.120 actually come very naturally

00:54:49.200 to us.

00:54:50.000 It's kind of something

00:54:50.620 that's been pushed on us

00:54:52.040 for a long time

00:54:52.860 following the Second World War

00:54:53.980 when we're starting

00:54:54.440 to get this dribble

00:54:55.680 of immigration come in.

00:54:56.980 People were kind of going like,

00:54:58.280 oh, okay,

00:54:58.700 well,

00:54:58.840 as long as they assimilate,

00:55:00.320 I can accept it.

00:55:02.040 And then they didn't.

00:55:03.060 And then you got more

00:55:03.880 and more and more and more

00:55:05.020 and they have even less reason

00:55:06.360 to assimilate.

00:55:07.240 The foundation stone

00:55:08.320 of Boomer Truth

00:55:09.000 is to work against

00:55:10.220 your own interests,

00:55:11.080 right?

00:55:11.500 Exactly.

00:55:12.080 Isn't it?

00:55:12.960 One of the,

00:55:13.800 one of the cornerstones

00:55:15.100 of it anyway.

00:55:15.440 But the thing that I'm

00:55:16.340 interested in now

00:55:17.160 is that the meme magic

00:55:18.740 is, of course,

00:55:19.560 real.

00:55:20.240 We all know this.

00:55:21.040 Meme magic basically

00:55:22.000 got Trump into office

00:55:23.160 in 2016.

00:55:24.520 Meme magic got Brexit through.

00:55:26.500 It's our daily bread

00:55:27.420 here at L.C.

00:55:28.160 Stockholm, isn't it?

00:55:28.840 Auslander Rausch

00:55:29.740 is a wonderful meme

00:55:30.900 that's spread across Germany

00:55:32.120 and the meme magic

00:55:33.260 is spreading elsewhere,

00:55:34.620 mainly through TikTok,

00:55:37.060 of all things.

00:55:37.920 You know,

00:55:38.460 most people this time

00:55:39.480 last year

00:55:39.840 were complaining about

00:55:40.580 TikTok,

00:55:41.080 Chinese spyware.

00:55:42.160 Now it's being used

00:55:43.500 for stuff like this.

00:55:44.640 And Kunle Drupper,

00:55:46.340 of course,

00:55:46.900 one of the great

00:55:47.700 journalists,

00:55:48.940 cataloguers of culture

00:55:50.220 of our time.

00:55:51.460 Probably the greatest

00:55:51.900 journalist of our time.

00:55:53.140 Yeah.

00:55:53.960 Has been going through

00:55:55.320 and finding things

00:55:56.440 like this.

00:55:56.960 Incredible things

00:55:57.780 happening in France.

00:55:58.740 TikTok's being flooded

00:55:59.640 with right wing content.

00:56:01.460 Zuma has a response

00:56:02.460 to those who call her racist.

00:56:04.280 Me?

00:56:04.940 Racist? 1.00

00:56:05.580 Shit. 1.00

00:56:05.980 Okay. 1.00

00:56:06.820 And it's going along

00:56:07.720 with songs as well.

00:56:08.660 Qu'est-ce que vous voulez

00:56:09.100 que je réponde?

00:56:10.340 Je m'en fous.

00:56:13.920 Just,

00:56:14.700 this is the classic

00:56:16.060 meme energy.

00:56:17.040 You say something

00:56:17.900 based with some kind

00:56:19.460 of Europop

00:56:20.380 or EDM

00:56:21.080 going on in the background.

00:56:22.800 Zuma's respond 0.52

00:56:23.620 very well to this.

00:56:24.560 You put a,

00:56:24.920 you put a little

00:56:26.200 leaflet

00:56:27.260 through a Zuma's door 0.99

00:56:28.400 saying,

00:56:29.000 here's all the reason.

00:56:29.800 No, no, no, no, no, no.

00:56:31.140 You put a leaflet

00:56:32.000 with a QR code.

00:56:33.120 They scan the QR code

00:56:34.300 and it brings them

00:56:35.040 to some kind

00:56:35.580 of giga-chad

00:56:36.440 dancing

00:56:37.460 over the Empire Windrush 0.67

00:56:40.120 or something like that.

00:56:41.740 That's going to be

00:56:42.940 what wins them over.

00:56:44.600 You also get

00:56:45.260 things like this as well.

00:56:46.920 This is an interesting one

00:56:48.100 where they've taken

00:56:48.940 a new viral song.

00:56:50.560 So they've done

00:56:51.100 the same thing

00:56:51.640 with the Auslander Rouse

00:56:52.780 where they've taken

00:56:53.460 an old dance song

00:56:54.960 from the 1990s.

00:56:56.560 And this one's called

00:56:57.580 Je patira passe

00:56:59.180 which means

00:56:59.780 I won't leave,

00:57:01.000 yes, you will leave.

00:57:02.600 And this particular video

00:57:03.940 has 300,000 views

00:57:05.680 on TikTok.

00:57:06.940 Good riddance

00:57:07.500 and don't come back.

00:57:08.740 As you came,

00:57:09.540 you will leave.

00:57:10.680 And then...

00:57:11.400 I won't play

00:57:14.320 too much of it

00:57:15.140 because I assume

00:57:15.760 the song is copyright

00:57:16.600 but you can see

00:57:17.960 where the energy is going

00:57:18.880 and there's a lot

00:57:19.520 of this going around.

00:57:20.720 She had brown eyes though.

00:57:23.260 Oh, not a real

00:57:24.280 A10 Aryan. 0.92

00:57:25.960 Yeah, so she's

00:57:26.760 careful. 1.00

00:57:28.460 Oh, fuck dear. 0.99

00:57:30.260 But it seems to me 0.99

00:57:31.560 that what's obviously

00:57:32.380 happening is the most

00:57:33.460 effective campaign

00:57:34.780 is to get

00:57:35.800 attractive young women 0.98

00:57:39.260 to sing along

00:57:40.080 with nationalist songs.

00:57:42.680 Who'd have thought?

00:57:44.480 Who'd have thought?

00:57:45.540 Just get, yep,

00:57:46.640 by the way,

00:57:47.460 I love being French.

00:57:49.840 I love my country

00:57:50.920 being what it should be.

00:57:52.020 There you go.

00:57:53.020 And the media

00:57:53.920 has been complaining

00:57:54.880 about this.

00:57:55.960 Oh no, xenophobia.

00:57:57.020 It's really nice to see though.

00:57:57.820 It is really nice to see

00:57:58.900 that the younger generation

00:58:00.180 it's there.

00:58:02.100 Because, you know,

00:58:02.580 we've said for a while

00:58:03.500 and I think people like,

00:58:04.540 I think I first heard it

00:58:05.520 with Steve Turley

00:58:06.440 or maybe even before

00:58:07.720 I even was aware

00:58:08.320 of Steve Turley.

00:58:08.980 But this idea that

00:58:10.240 leftism

00:58:12.020 in sort of the

00:58:14.460 1960s and 70s

00:58:16.120 and onwards,

00:58:17.000 that was the counterculture.

00:58:18.500 that was the thing

00:58:21.280 to rebel against

00:58:22.440 the sort of

00:58:23.260 ultra-conservativism

00:58:24.780 of the

00:58:25.580 World War II era

00:58:26.860 generation.

00:58:28.460 And it really has

00:58:29.520 flipped now.

00:58:30.680 Oh yeah.

00:58:31.880 To where

00:58:32.880 right-wing politics

00:58:34.160 is the new avant-garde.

00:58:35.800 It's the new

00:58:36.820 Yeah.

00:58:38.400 It's because you're not allowed.

00:58:39.560 It's because you're not allowed.

00:58:40.560 You've got a bunch of

00:58:41.840 aging

00:58:42.840 leftists going,

00:58:44.620 oh no,

00:58:45.000 that's racist,

00:58:45.780 that's bad,

00:58:46.040 you're not allowed to do that.

00:58:47.180 And if you want to be rebellious

00:58:49.420 and say,

00:58:50.180 no,

00:58:50.480 get effed, 0.95

00:58:51.540 well you've got to

00:58:52.220 lean in.

00:58:52.780 Your parents and grandparents

00:58:53.700 are sort of arch-reds. 0.95

00:58:55.860 Maybe, yeah.

00:58:57.280 Crypto-communists.

00:58:58.360 So you go,

00:58:58.600 well no,

00:58:59.360 I reject all of that.

00:59:00.920 This is what happens

00:59:02.040 in Germany

00:59:03.580 when they said,

00:59:04.260 okay,

00:59:04.480 16-year-olds can vote now

00:59:06.980 because they were just

00:59:07.640 assuming.

00:59:08.420 Yeah,

00:59:08.660 because they just go,

00:59:10.080 well obviously

00:59:10.940 all teenagers

00:59:12.420 and young people

00:59:13.400 are automatically 0.93

00:59:14.600 retarded, 1.00

00:59:15.400 so leftist.

00:59:16.140 It turns out

00:59:18.300 some of them are.

00:59:19.780 And it turned out,

00:59:20.820 no actually,

00:59:21.660 they all voted for,

00:59:22.560 well most of them

00:59:23.220 voted for the AFD.

00:59:24.420 And the thing is,

00:59:25.080 I don't know why

00:59:25.940 they think this as well

00:59:26.720 because I remember

00:59:28.860 being young,

00:59:29.480 I was quite clever,

00:59:30.300 I just didn't know anything.

00:59:31.660 But it doesn't mean 0.93

00:59:32.400 I was stupid. 0.97

00:59:33.600 Well, 1.00

00:59:34.300 I think it's partly,

00:59:35.680 obviously it's a big factor

00:59:37.180 of the sort of

00:59:38.440 rebelliousness

00:59:39.280 and the energy

00:59:40.560 that can come with youth.

00:59:42.180 But also I think

00:59:43.080 it's something

00:59:43.800 more primal than that

00:59:45.180 which is that these

00:59:45.860 young people

00:59:46.820 are growing up

00:59:47.840 in countries

00:59:48.480 where they know

00:59:49.540 from their parents

00:59:51.600 and their grandparents

00:59:52.340 that there was a time

00:59:53.540 before now

00:59:54.620 when things worked,

00:59:56.460 when their country

00:59:57.640 was for them.

00:59:59.420 And they're growing up

01:00:00.160 in a country

01:00:00.640 that isn't just

01:00:01.980 opening the floodgates

01:00:03.360 to foreigners

01:00:04.100 who hate them

01:00:04.860 and actively say,

01:00:05.740 they're supporting that

01:00:07.020 and they're persecuting you

01:00:08.700 for saying otherwise.

01:00:09.540 So these people

01:00:10.940 are growing up

01:00:11.520 with much more

01:00:12.160 of a consciousness

01:00:12.920 of what's going on

01:00:14.400 around them

01:00:14.960 than even,

01:00:15.960 you know,

01:00:16.260 I did 20 years ago

01:00:17.920 when I was,

01:00:18.560 you know,

01:00:20.360 like eight years old

01:00:21.820 and going through

01:00:22.420 to my teenage years

01:00:23.420 as well.

01:00:23.700 You just didn't get

01:00:24.460 any of that feeling

01:00:25.340 because things

01:00:26.020 hadn't declined

01:00:26.960 quite as badly

01:00:28.720 as they had now.

01:00:29.220 And it's in the

01:00:29.920 Labour manifesto

01:00:30.840 that they're going to

01:00:31.740 reduce the voting age

01:00:33.100 to 16.

01:00:33.840 So hopefully

01:00:34.280 they'll vote for Nige 1.00

01:00:35.260 in 29.

01:00:36.220 Hopefully.

01:00:37.600 But yeah,

01:00:37.960 like again,

01:00:38.840 the dynamic

01:00:39.320 of the actual

01:00:41.080 boomer generation

01:00:41.800 or the generation

01:00:42.440 slightly younger

01:00:43.500 than the true

01:00:44.440 boomer generation.

01:00:45.600 It was their experience

01:00:47.080 growing up

01:00:47.700 or even at us

01:00:48.700 when we were young

01:00:49.460 that the young people

01:00:51.340 would be lefty

01:00:52.540 that you'd idolise

01:00:53.580 or you'd be interested

01:00:54.440 in sort of the life

01:00:55.920 of Che Guevara,

01:00:56.700 for example.

01:00:57.560 I literally had

01:00:58.280 a Che Guevara poster

01:00:59.380 on my bedroom wall.

01:01:00.600 Oh, boom.

01:01:01.580 Yeah, I know. 0.98

01:01:02.220 Ridiculous, right? 0.83

01:01:03.300 Wait, what happened? 0.97

01:01:04.660 What did he do?

01:01:05.240 What was his life like?

01:01:06.600 Oh, wait.

01:01:07.280 Maybe I'll take that down.

01:01:09.220 Maybe I'm not a fan

01:01:09.980 of this guy.

01:01:10.640 Yeah.

01:01:11.720 But so they think,

01:01:13.040 I think,

01:01:13.920 that that whole dynamic

01:01:15.780 still exists

01:01:16.540 and it just doesn't.

01:01:17.860 If anything,

01:01:18.240 it's been flipped.

01:01:19.600 So I hope

01:01:20.700 they don't wake up to it.

01:01:21.920 It's kind of inconceivable

01:01:23.720 that they would not think

01:01:24.700 that the young people

01:01:27.040 would not think,

01:01:27.940 hang on a second,

01:01:28.380 why would I want

01:01:29.240 to be left-wing?

01:01:30.060 I mean,

01:01:30.300 that means supporting

01:01:32.020 all of the power structures

01:01:33.100 that are making

01:01:33.660 everything worse

01:01:34.380 and they hate me.

01:01:36.860 Explicitly.

01:01:37.940 And it's not just

01:01:38.920 that they hate you.

01:01:40.020 I mean,

01:01:40.580 that's a big part of it.

01:01:41.980 But it's also become evident

01:01:43.160 that they're having

01:01:43.820 their futures

01:01:44.580 stolen from them,

01:01:45.900 right?

01:01:46.760 The current establishment

01:01:48.120 is genuinely stealing

01:01:49.440 their future

01:01:50.180 and saying,

01:01:50.880 no,

01:01:50.940 you just won't have

01:01:51.780 a country in the future.

01:01:52.960 What you'll have

01:01:53.600 is a multi-culti paradise

01:01:54.820 that everyone will have

01:01:55.540 a claim on.

01:01:56.260 And you'll just be

01:01:56.740 one voice among many.

01:01:57.700 So why the hell

01:01:58.200 would I want that?

01:01:59.420 How is that good

01:02:00.080 for anyone?

01:02:00.660 Why would I,

01:02:01.000 you know,

01:02:01.140 I'm not going to get married

01:02:01.860 and have kids in that.

01:02:03.100 You know,

01:02:03.340 so good for them.

01:02:04.880 Yeah,

01:02:05.200 and there's some funny lines

01:02:06.680 from this article

01:02:07.740 where they say

01:02:08.300 some rhymes

01:02:09.840 from this Electro remix

01:02:11.580 include,

01:02:12.520 you will leave,

01:02:13.440 as you came,

01:02:14.160 you will go,

01:02:14.840 when Bardella,

01:02:15.740 who I think is the head

01:02:16.720 of the national rally

01:02:18.180 at the moment,

01:02:19.420 who's also a Zoomer

01:02:20.420 as far as I'm aware.

01:02:21.340 He's a bit older

01:02:21.900 than a Zoomer.

01:02:22.520 Well,

01:02:22.720 still,

01:02:23.080 close enough.

01:02:23.760 When Bardella passes,

01:02:24.960 you will return home.

01:02:26.160 You will leave

01:02:26.680 with your Fatma

01:02:28.200 finished in the RSA.

01:02:29.820 The boat does not wait.

01:02:30.960 You can pray all day

01:02:31.900 and you're starting

01:02:32.660 to annoy us.

01:02:35.360 So pretty on the note.

01:02:37.860 The frog began to hate.

01:02:40.820 And this is spreading

01:02:41.940 across TikTok,

01:02:43.140 which is interesting.

01:02:44.840 And there was a news report

01:02:46.400 from France

01:02:47.360 where

01:02:48.280 Drogba himself

01:02:49.960 makes a tiny little cameo

01:02:52.440 if I skip around here

01:02:54.260 where they say,

01:02:54.700 oh God,

01:02:55.040 isn't it terrible?

01:02:55.660 This song is so racist. 0.94

01:02:57.300 It's evil. 0.80

01:02:57.600 I can't believe

01:02:58.120 they're supporting Bardella.

01:02:59.880 Here's a little shot

01:03:00.840 of some of the accounts

01:03:01.940 who are spreading this.

01:03:03.520 And as it goes down,

01:03:04.380 it's blurred them out.

01:03:05.160 Wait a second.

01:03:06.140 Wait a second.

01:03:06.880 Who's that there?

01:03:07.740 There's our boy.

01:03:08.560 There he is.

01:03:09.520 He's making the news.

01:03:11.680 Most impactful journalist

01:03:13.020 of the 21st century.

01:03:14.060 So impactful.

01:03:15.240 I mean,

01:03:15.540 it's even passing

01:03:16.400 to

01:03:16.980 our old boy Zemore.

01:03:21.360 This is the song.

01:03:22.480 This is on

01:03:24.480 this is on

01:03:26.480 his official Twitter.

01:03:28.080 I love the

01:03:28.580 Zoomer of Boomer 0.69

01:03:29.360 handshake.

01:03:30.160 He just posts it.

01:03:31.020 You know what?

01:03:32.700 Yeah.

01:03:33.140 And so far,

01:03:34.480 gotta get rid of him.

01:03:35.400 It seemed that a lot

01:03:36.180 of this energy

01:03:36.760 has been confined

01:03:37.600 to the continent.

01:03:38.800 A lot of it's been

01:03:39.860 Germany,

01:03:40.580 now France,

01:03:41.860 probably other countries

01:03:42.740 across the continent.

01:03:43.940 And Britain has

01:03:44.880 been quite slow

01:03:46.480 in taking this up.

01:03:47.540 But there is

01:03:48.900 beginning to be

01:03:50.820 a noticeable shift

01:03:52.860 among the younger

01:03:53.980 generations.

01:03:55.120 Noticeably,

01:03:56.020 this clip

01:03:56.840 came out recently.

01:03:59.040 Oh, yeah, go on.

01:03:59.940 Sorry, just before

01:04:00.520 we play this right.

01:04:01.360 So, I saw a lot

01:04:02.740 of people on the right

01:04:03.380 really like hammering

01:04:04.540 Aaron Bastani for

01:04:05.400 these clips.

01:04:06.300 And I don't know

01:04:06.880 why at all.

01:04:07.380 Because he asked

01:04:08.320 perfectly reasonable

01:04:08.960 questions.

01:04:09.400 He didn't misquote

01:04:10.000 them.

01:04:10.160 He didn't accuse

01:04:11.120 them of anything.

01:04:11.620 He didn't interrupt

01:04:12.360 them like politics

01:04:13.280 Joe do sometimes.

01:04:14.740 And he presented

01:04:15.360 their entire answers

01:04:16.360 in context.

01:04:17.680 So, I think Aaron

01:04:18.500 did a perfectly

01:04:19.100 good job of this.

01:04:19.860 And actually,

01:04:20.600 like we're about

01:04:21.520 to see,

01:04:22.260 this is a real

01:04:23.500 eye-opener.

01:04:24.260 I still think

01:04:25.040 Aaron's got some

01:04:26.720 kind of like

01:04:27.280 anon account.

01:04:29.420 I think he's got

01:04:30.320 an anon account

01:04:30.980 where he follows

01:04:31.600 a few people.

01:04:32.580 Well, there are

01:04:32.900 lots of leftists

01:04:34.360 who call him

01:04:35.040 Beefsteak.

01:04:36.700 Really?

01:04:37.300 Because the

01:04:37.540 Beefsteak Nazis.

01:04:38.740 Oh, God.

01:04:39.320 What's that?

01:04:40.180 Well, they're

01:04:40.600 starting to disavow

01:04:41.580 the communists

01:04:42.440 who joined the

01:04:42.900 Nazi party

01:04:43.500 who were called

01:04:43.800 Beefsteak Nazis.

01:04:44.560 Oh, okay.

01:04:45.640 So, they're

01:04:46.060 starting to see

01:04:46.680 Mr. Fully Automated

01:04:47.860 Luxury Communism.

01:04:48.700 They call him

01:04:49.260 Brown, yeah. 0.79

01:04:50.060 Oh, my God.

01:04:50.960 They say politics

01:04:51.960 are brown because 1.00

01:04:52.520 he's going to get

01:04:53.560 his brown shirts

01:04:54.280 on.

01:04:54.740 That's it, yeah.

01:04:56.020 The stomping

01:04:56.700 boots.

01:04:57.440 But in Aaron's

01:04:58.280 defence, he's a

01:04:59.160 father, right?

01:04:59.920 And he's looking

01:05:00.400 around at the

01:05:00.900 reality of what's

01:05:01.900 going on and being

01:05:02.380 like, okay, the

01:05:03.260 ideology makes

01:05:04.220 perfect sense.

01:05:05.160 I'm a communist,

01:05:05.780 but look at

01:05:06.840 reality.

01:05:07.640 So, anyway.

01:05:07.820 He was explicitly

01:05:09.060 against the

01:05:09.920 poppy appeal,

01:05:10.700 wasn't he?

01:05:11.460 Do you remember

01:05:11.920 that?

01:05:12.180 I mean, he's

01:05:12.640 probably done

01:05:13.040 a load of

01:05:13.420 communist stuff

01:05:14.000 I really disagree

01:05:14.740 with.

01:05:15.500 But people aren't

01:05:16.440 static, they change.

01:05:17.320 But I will say

01:05:18.320 also, these

01:05:19.600 interviews are

01:05:20.260 fair and well

01:05:21.880 done, so I'll

01:05:22.460 give him credit

01:05:22.940 for that.

01:05:23.560 But let's play a

01:05:24.600 bit for those of

01:05:25.200 you who haven't

01:05:25.720 watched.

01:05:26.060 It's three minutes

01:05:26.640 long, so I'll

01:05:27.220 try and just get

01:05:28.400 some of the good

01:05:29.000 stuff.

01:05:29.620 And it's

01:05:30.020 interesting towards

01:05:30.640 the end as

01:05:31.140 well, so.

01:05:32.720 England's 0.67

01:05:33.120 England.

01:05:35.200 And sometimes I

01:05:36.100 don't even want

01:05:36.420 to be here.

01:05:38.000 Why is that?

01:05:38.900 Well, it's getting

01:05:39.500 worse.

01:05:39.820 You look

01:05:42.100 around, there's

01:05:42.500 a foreigner.

01:05:44.000 No more

01:05:44.300 England.

01:05:45.860 Might as well

01:05:46.240 name it

01:05:46.800 something else.

01:05:49.340 Hell.

01:05:50.700 Hell?

01:05:51.240 Why hell?

01:05:52.200 There's too 0.99

01:05:52.500 many foreigners.

01:05:55.000 Greg's in a 0.99

01:05:55.580 gay flag. 0.99

01:05:56.280 There we go. 1.00

01:05:56.700 Hell's is too 0.99

01:05:57.380 many foreigners. 0.85

01:05:58.200 I didn't even

01:05:58.640 see that flag.

01:05:59.360 What does that

01:05:59.640 mean, John?

01:05:59.940 I love this as

01:06:01.000 well, this is so

01:06:01.500 interesting.

01:06:02.000 You have homeless

01:06:02.660 English people not 0.98

01:06:05.120 getting housed, but

01:06:06.400 you have immigrants

01:06:07.480 that come here. 0.98

01:06:08.400 They're illegal and

01:06:09.260 they get housed.

01:06:10.320 It's a joke.

01:06:11.400 So you're saying

01:06:12.380 just illegal immigrants?

01:06:13.600 But legal immigrants? 0.83

01:06:14.360 I'm just asking

01:06:15.100 about legal immigrants.

01:06:16.800 Yeah, but even if

01:06:17.340 they're legal immigrants,

01:06:18.520 they still shouldn't be

01:06:19.280 put over English

01:06:20.040 people.

01:06:20.780 No.

01:06:21.740 We spend too much

01:06:23.000 tax money on

01:06:23.740 immigrants, and I

01:06:24.880 think that's a joke.

01:06:26.040 And we should worry

01:06:26.860 about our own people

01:06:27.580 before others.

01:06:29.040 Do you think the

01:06:29.880 political class

01:06:30.480 generally are doing

01:06:31.740 that then?

01:06:32.220 No.

01:06:33.220 I think the

01:06:34.380 conservative pie is

01:06:36.080 an absolute joke,

01:06:37.100 and young people in

01:06:37.760 this country don't have

01:06:38.560 a voice, and it

01:06:39.080 makes me sick.

01:06:40.540 So if you could

01:06:41.760 vote like that, who

01:06:42.440 would you vote for?

01:06:43.120 Who would I vote for?

01:06:43.820 Reform UK, probably.

01:06:45.400 I mean, can I just

01:06:46.640 say as well, the most

01:06:47.720 shocking thing for me

01:06:48.480 is that in the middle

01:06:49.660 of the street, in the

01:06:50.540 middle of this

01:06:50.980 interview, a clearly

01:06:52.640 mixed-race kid comes

01:06:55.620 up and says all of

01:06:56.520 this stuff.

01:06:57.240 That was very, very

01:06:58.480 surprising to me.

01:06:59.940 But while the general

01:07:02.120 tendency from what I've

01:07:03.200 seen from Meghan

01:07:04.220 Markle's seems to

01:07:05.880 point one way, this

01:07:06.700 guy obviously seems to

01:07:07.780 have respect for

01:07:08.720 potentially both

01:07:09.940 sides of his

01:07:10.940 heritage, so I

01:07:11.760 respect that.

01:07:12.520 Well, the thing is,

01:07:13.500 Aaron falls into this

01:07:15.520 trap too.

01:07:16.220 Well, he's mixed-race

01:07:17.480 heritage, therefore his 0.99

01:07:18.300 skin is more brown than 1.00

01:07:19.300 usual, therefore he

01:07:20.360 can't consider himself

01:07:21.040 English.

01:07:21.440 But his mum and dad

01:07:23.040 are English.

01:07:24.140 You inherit your 0.92

01:07:25.700 heritage through your

01:07:27.440 lineage.

01:07:28.140 So he is English

01:07:28.920 whether he likes it or

01:07:29.740 not, regardless of the

01:07:30.880 colour of his skin.

01:07:31.560 He has an English

01:07:32.720 lineage.

01:07:33.660 So it's just the way

01:07:34.620 that works.

01:07:35.100 So you have these

01:07:36.080 younger people saying

01:07:37.080 that, oh yeah, well

01:07:38.020 I'm probably going to

01:07:38.820 vote reform if I'm

01:07:39.780 going to be voting.

01:07:40.660 And then towards the

01:07:41.520 end he starts speaking

01:07:42.300 to some young girls as

01:07:44.220 well and asking them

01:07:45.780 their opinion and what

01:07:46.820 they've got to say.

01:07:47.720 Get them on TikTok.

01:07:48.540 It doesn't matter,

01:07:49.080 yeah.

01:07:49.940 Shouldn't you be

01:07:50.360 singing songs?

01:07:52.400 Oh, come on, load. 1.00

01:07:55.860 Samson, what's going

01:07:56.660 on?

01:07:57.660 It's Twitter.

01:07:58.940 Be patient.

01:08:00.200 No, I'm a Zoomer.

01:08:01.460 No, I can't.

01:08:02.500 Another rainbow in the

01:08:03.520 background.

01:08:04.240 So where is this again?

01:08:06.240 This is in Clacton.

01:08:07.200 It is Clacton.

01:08:07.820 Oh, is it in Clacton again?

01:08:09.020 Oh, okay.

01:08:09.560 That's all right.

01:08:10.280 He's actually in Clacton.

01:08:11.120 And that's the thing,

01:08:11.660 like the rainbow flags in

01:08:12.480 the background, like good

01:08:14.340 spot, you know, this woke

01:08:15.660 stuff is everywhere, but

01:08:17.040 it's not connecting with

01:08:18.400 the people on the ground,

01:08:19.420 obviously.

01:08:20.240 The people on the ground

01:08:21.040 are just like, that's too

01:08:22.320 weird, what are you

01:08:23.180 doing?

01:08:23.880 Either way, these girls who 1.00

01:08:25.240 might be in college or

01:08:27.440 school or maybe in the

01:08:28.640 first years of uni, they

01:08:30.280 say that all of their

01:08:31.360 friends around their age,

01:08:32.300 they didn't care about

01:08:34.200 politics, but with this

01:08:35.120 election coming up.

01:08:35.960 I'm sorry, it was in

01:08:36.440 Chichester.

01:08:36.980 Oh, Chichester, yeah.

01:08:38.360 Their friends are starting

01:08:39.680 to actually get interested

01:08:41.260 and starting to get a bit

01:08:42.720 more of a consciousness

01:08:43.380 about this stuff, and

01:08:44.340 they're all going to be

01:08:44.860 voting reform.

01:08:46.000 And he said, where are

01:08:46.980 they getting these ideas

01:08:47.780 from?

01:08:48.060 What's swayed them to that

01:08:49.120 side?

01:08:49.380 And she just says, oh,

01:08:50.020 yeah, they're getting it

01:08:50.480 all on TikTok.

01:08:52.200 And it does really...

01:08:54.220 We need to get to Daisy

01:08:54.780 to up a lot of seat

01:08:55.940 to TikTok game.

01:08:56.640 She does.

01:08:57.180 Yeah, she does.

01:08:57.640 She does a great job.

01:08:58.580 Yeah, yeah.

01:08:58.860 But the media is starting

01:09:02.200 to question, why is this

01:09:03.780 happening?

01:09:04.240 Why are young people not 0.85

01:09:06.100 being shitlibs like they 0.99

01:09:07.240 normally are? 1.00

01:09:07.860 Why aren't they morons? 1.00

01:09:09.140 What's going on? 1.00

01:09:10.160 What's happened?

01:09:11.140 And they say, how reform

01:09:13.200 seduced Gen Z. 0.90

01:09:15.340 Their manifesto is like a

01:09:16.840 wish list.

01:09:17.560 What?

01:09:18.560 Hang on.

01:09:19.140 What do you mean?

01:09:19.660 They won't add on to taxes.

01:09:22.040 They're planning on sending 0.69

01:09:23.120 foreign criminals back. 1.00

01:09:24.900 What's going on?

01:09:25.740 How did they seduce them? 1.00

01:09:27.240 Sorry, so the essence of

01:09:28.540 this complaint is that the

01:09:30.640 reform manifesto sounds

01:09:32.540 good.

01:09:33.900 Yeah.

01:09:34.140 These are good ideas that

01:09:35.540 people would like.

01:09:36.840 I don't know.

01:09:37.540 Well, they've been seduced

01:09:38.600 by the far right.

01:09:40.180 So this is interesting.

01:09:41.640 So it says, according to

01:09:42.380 the Telegraph analysis, data

01:09:43.980 from four major pollsters

01:09:45.220 suggest as many as 16% of

01:09:47.540 18 to 24 year olds intend

01:09:48.900 to vote reform next week.

01:09:50.460 Now, this is second place

01:09:52.220 because Labour is still

01:09:53.300 massively in the lead with 47%.

01:09:56.420 But it's stronger than Lib Dem

01:09:59.180 to a 14%.

01:10:00.140 It's stronger than

01:10:01.000 Conservative.

01:10:01.720 So I think went from like

01:10:02.580 13% to, yeah, single digit

01:10:05.180 percents.

01:10:05.840 And the polls aren't destiny,

01:10:07.400 but it definitely shows that

01:10:08.260 there is a shift, especially

01:10:09.240 if you go down.

01:10:11.260 I think they've got a graph in

01:10:12.600 here of the change.

01:10:14.820 Yeah.

01:10:15.480 Change in voting intention of

01:10:17.580 voters aged 18 to 24 since

01:10:19.500 the start of the election

01:10:20.520 campaign.

01:10:21.120 And all of a sudden, just

01:10:22.460 since the beginning of the

01:10:23.620 campaign, the only other ones

01:10:25.260 who've actually made any

01:10:26.060 gains are the Lib Dems.

01:10:27.680 Reform are the ones who've 0.95

01:10:28.540 made all of the gains.

01:10:29.860 And whether or not this

01:10:30.900 translates on the election,

01:10:32.780 it definitely shows a change

01:10:33.940 in the mindset among certain

01:10:35.460 subsection of the youth.

01:10:37.120 Do you remember a few months

01:10:38.340 ago, it was a few months ago

01:10:39.600 now, the actual Conservative

01:10:41.100 Party sort of youth, the young

01:10:42.800 Conservatives, it was just all

01:10:43.900 folded.

01:10:44.300 They disbanded.

01:10:44.940 Yeah, they just disbanded

01:10:46.440 themselves, didn't they?

01:10:47.220 It's over.

01:10:47.660 And now some of those same

01:10:48.780 people, people like our own

01:10:50.880 Connor and some people in and

01:10:52.600 around him have been calling

01:10:54.260 for reform to make it sort of a

01:10:56.300 youth chapter or something.

01:10:58.520 And they're right.

01:10:58.980 Yeah, yeah, absolutely should.

01:11:00.400 Yeah.

01:11:00.600 And again, we have to give it to

01:11:02.400 social media campaigns done

01:11:04.300 through TikTok seem to be

01:11:06.360 getting a lot of traction,

01:11:07.640 especially for Nigel in

01:11:08.820 particular, because he just

01:11:10.260 posts all sorts of wacky

01:11:12.880 stuff on his TikTok.

01:11:15.020 Well, yeah, yeah, it's Jack

01:11:16.360 Anderton, but clearly he's got

01:11:18.120 an excellent team behind him

01:11:19.640 who know how to use the

01:11:21.780 social media that they have

01:11:23.040 access to.

01:11:24.220 And David Atherton's been

01:11:25.320 posting stuff, even just post

01:11:26.840 stuff like, oh, people don't

01:11:28.360 want you to drink and have a

01:11:29.540 good time watching the Euros.

01:11:30.760 You have a good time.

01:11:31.680 You only live once.

01:11:32.660 So why not just have a few

01:11:34.040 beers with your mates and watch

01:11:35.180 the football?

01:11:36.180 Simple stuff like that.

01:11:37.300 Good advice.

01:11:38.220 I mean, come on.

01:11:39.180 Does Rishi say anything like

01:11:41.520 that?

01:11:41.740 Do you think that Keir Starmer

01:11:43.820 has the ability to enjoy

01:11:45.240 himself on a sunny day with a

01:11:46.660 beer?

01:11:47.060 Yeah, yeah.

01:11:47.580 Keir Starmer will be like,

01:11:48.660 OK, well, you know, we need

01:11:49.580 to measure out the metrics and

01:11:50.860 we need to make sure that it's

01:11:51.800 cleared on the spreadsheet.

01:11:53.000 I need to present my five

01:11:54.620 year plan, my five point

01:11:56.720 plan for how we're going to

01:11:58.100 be tackling the Euros this

01:11:59.740 year.

01:12:00.120 How we're going to have fun

01:12:00.900 on the Euros night.

01:12:01.920 Whereas Nigel actually, for

01:12:03.680 any faults he may have,

01:12:05.560 comes across like a human

01:12:06.580 being.

01:12:07.200 You wouldn't catch Nige 1.00

01:12:08.740 eating a hot dog with a

01:12:10.520 knife and fork, would you?

01:12:12.340 There's a picture of Rishi

01:12:13.320 Sinek the other day.

01:12:14.020 He's got a pint in a pub

01:12:15.980 that's full of water.

01:12:17.760 It's like, why have you got

01:12:18.460 a pint of water in a pub?

01:12:19.840 You know, that doesn't make

01:12:20.620 you relatable.

01:12:21.140 It makes you look weird.

01:12:22.120 And then again, what really

01:12:23.740 attracts Zoomers? 0.99

01:12:24.860 Unlike the rest, I don't

01:12:25.900 need a script.

01:12:27.060 I've come out of retirement,

01:12:28.440 back into politics with

01:12:30.100 passion in my heart.

01:12:32.120 Speeches with banging

01:12:33.600 tracks behind them.

01:12:35.000 That's how you get the

01:12:36.100 Zoomer attention.

01:12:37.500 Can we get some retro 16

01:12:39.300 bit graphics on it as well?

01:12:40.900 Oh, yeah.

01:12:41.460 So you've got to put some

01:12:42.580 strange filters so that

01:12:44.120 people watching it go,

01:12:45.100 I'm cool.

01:12:46.300 I'm cool.

01:12:47.440 Oh, yeah.

01:12:48.480 And then they do this one,

01:12:49.680 which this is from the

01:12:51.220 Young Reformers TikTok. 0.93

01:12:54.540 And we are saying that the

01:12:56.820 conservative party is won.

01:12:58.580 It is spread so far, so

01:13:00.860 wide.

01:13:01.720 So congratulations, Nima.

01:13:03.300 You should have copyrighted

01:13:04.440 it.

01:13:04.800 You should have put the

01:13:05.580 patent in there before.

01:13:06.960 And like you say, it's

01:13:08.540 Jack Anderton, this guy,

01:13:10.700 saying the brains behind

01:13:11.620 the social media blitz is

01:13:12.800 23-year-old Jack Anderton,

01:13:14.800 who's been working for

01:13:15.760 Farage for a number of

01:13:16.740 months.

01:13:17.480 Social media whiz has also

01:13:18.760 remarked that Rishi Sunak

01:13:19.940 doesn't believe in our

01:13:21.120 people, our history, or our

01:13:22.860 culture, especially following

01:13:23.940 the D-Day thing, and has

01:13:25.400 claimed that Britain has

01:13:26.180 millions of people living

01:13:27.140 here who hate our country.

01:13:28.800 He's argued that

01:13:29.480 immigration is stealing 1.00

01:13:30.720 the future of British

01:13:31.560 youth.

01:13:32.060 So exactly mirroring

01:13:33.500 what you said there.

01:13:35.220 I wonder if and when

01:13:36.800 they'll come round to the

01:13:37.860 policy of a mass

01:13:39.860 re-migration needs to

01:13:40.980 happen.

01:13:41.660 Yeah, I mean, they can't

01:13:42.480 be far off of that.

01:13:43.580 Oh, yeah, right.

01:13:44.820 You know that these guys

01:13:48.100 here, even these girls and

01:13:50.560 these guys at the beginning

01:13:51.860 of this video here, they

01:13:53.460 want to say it.

01:13:54.980 Well, they're all but

01:13:55.560 saying it.

01:13:56.020 They want to say it.

01:13:57.020 Yeah, they're saying it

01:13:57.700 in code.

01:13:57.980 When you say there's too

01:13:58.020 many foreigners here, the

01:13:58.880 implication is they need to

01:13:59.960 just go back to where they

01:14:00.700 came from.

01:14:01.500 Yeah.

01:14:01.640 That's the implication in the

01:14:02.700 statement itself.

01:14:03.580 Why would you say it if

01:14:04.420 that wasn't what you

01:14:05.540 meant?

01:14:06.660 Yeah, that's all I really

01:14:07.400 need to say on that, which

01:14:08.480 is that as much as TikTok

01:14:10.260 may annoy some people, it

01:14:11.640 does actually have some

01:14:12.640 useful propaganda and

01:14:13.860 recruiting purposes.

01:14:15.300 Who knew?

01:14:16.280 Should we go on to the

01:14:16.940 video comments?

01:14:22.000 Some Lotus Eaters may

01:14:23.200 recall a certain talented

01:14:24.580 commenter who would perform

01:14:25.800 magic tricks whilst

01:14:26.740 expostulating about the

01:14:27.980 world.

01:14:28.840 Cedric Purcell has not been

01:14:29.900 seen here for a while, but

01:14:31.020 his YouTube channel is still

01:14:32.200 going strong and his

01:14:33.160 particular brand of charm

01:14:34.280 and skill as entertaining

01:14:35.420 to watch.

01:14:36.700 He left us with a comment

01:14:37.700 that he had proposed to

01:14:38.660 his girlfriend, and I'm

01:14:39.620 happy to report they are

01:14:40.660 now married.

01:14:41.840 Do give his YouTube

01:14:42.600 channel a subscription.

01:14:44.760 Oh, congratulations.

01:14:46.280 Yeah.

01:14:47.220 I do love magic tricks as

01:14:48.540 well.

01:14:48.860 Yeah, that's fantastic.

01:14:51.220 In the last European

01:14:52.200 elections, the Confederacy

01:14:53.180 Party decided to hold a

01:14:54.240 competition challenge between

01:14:55.160 two candidates on the

01:14:56.280 Silesian ballot.

01:14:57.080 It was obvious that only one

01:14:58.100 candidate would win a seat,

01:14:59.080 so they've placed an

01:14:59.800 unknown but claimed to be a

01:15:00.940 hard-working in the party's

01:15:02.360 structure's candidate in the

01:15:03.220 first position and a

01:15:04.240 charismatic popular candidate

01:15:05.320 in the last slot.

01:15:06.380 The plan worked and the

01:15:07.300 difference between them was

01:15:08.100 tiny.

01:15:08.580 As the partial results were

01:15:09.660 published bit by bit, the

01:15:10.780 difference was as low as

01:15:11.640 eight votes.

01:15:12.260 Finally, Soschnas has lost by

01:15:13.520 49 votes.

01:15:14.460 My point is, if you truly

01:15:15.720 believe in the reform's

01:15:16.820 victory over the

01:15:17.600 Conservatives, talk to every

01:15:18.900 person you can possibly

01:15:19.680 convince.

01:15:20.240 Every vote matters.

01:15:21.480 That's totally true.

01:15:23.460 If you're watching, it's

01:15:24.540 just your job to speak to

01:15:25.820 someone you know about it.

01:15:27.840 If you're thinking about

01:15:28.520 voting Labour or

01:15:29.140 Conservative, just be like,

01:15:30.120 come on, come on, it's

01:15:31.840 time.

01:15:32.180 I do think it is more

01:15:33.580 incumbent upon particularly

01:15:34.900 people like us to say

01:15:37.440 exactly that.

01:15:39.580 Have a conversation in your

01:15:41.160 own family over the

01:15:42.840 breakfast table or whatever

01:15:43.940 it is, at barbecues,

01:15:45.240 whatever.

01:15:45.680 It doesn't have to be, in

01:15:46.700 fact, it's always best if

01:15:47.940 it's not adversarial and

01:15:50.540 aggressive.

01:15:51.140 No.

01:15:51.520 But just if there's

01:15:52.160 someone in your family that's

01:15:53.200 just like an adamant red,

01:15:56.520 just push back against them

01:15:58.140 a bit, a little bit.

01:15:59.340 By that you mean a

01:16:00.400 Conservative voter.

01:16:01.540 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:16:03.060 Something funny happened

01:16:04.740 the other day, which is my

01:16:05.660 missus was at the pub with

01:16:07.220 some of her friends and

01:16:08.940 they're all, you know, like

01:16:10.120 alternative lefty type girls 1.00

01:16:12.320 and she just started 0.99

01:16:13.560 explaining to them why is

01:16:15.820 she's planning on voting for 0.99

01:16:17.180 reform and she was actually

01:16:18.840 bringing all of them over

01:16:20.480 on side, not even using,

01:16:22.420 you know, radicals,

01:16:23.200 radical arguments or

01:16:23.740 anything, just so you

01:16:24.400 know, like, I mean, the

01:16:25.480 country can only handle so

01:16:26.720 much people with the

01:16:27.540 infrastructure, just simple

01:16:29.160 stuff like that and then

01:16:30.440 some random mid-thirties

01:16:33.160 millennial shows up out of

01:16:35.380 nowhere, eavesdropping on

01:16:36.660 the conversation to call her

01:16:38.320 a racist.

01:16:40.100 That's nice.

01:16:40.580 Yeah, and she turns around 1.00

01:16:42.380 and her friends get her to

01:16:43.380 stop arguing with him after

01:16:44.520 she eventually just resorts 1.00

01:16:45.580 to going, are you retarded 1.00

01:16:47.040 or something? 0.99

01:16:48.780 Yeah.

01:16:49.560 And it's usually quite easy,

01:16:51.900 like, the whole rotten

01:16:53.260 edifice falls down quite

01:16:55.420 quickly when you push on

01:16:56.360 it.

01:16:57.020 Do the classic Socrates

01:16:59.140 thing of when some commie

01:17:01.320 stroke Tory party member

01:17:03.180 said something that's

01:17:04.660 obviously socialist, you can

01:17:07.040 just be like, is that the

01:17:08.520 case though?

01:17:09.220 Yeah.

01:17:09.620 And then give them a bit

01:17:10.720 of rope.

01:17:11.280 Yeah, yeah.

01:17:11.460 And they say, you know,

01:17:12.160 they say something like,

01:17:12.820 you know, that, for example,

01:17:15.200 all the boat people are 1.00

01:17:16.160 refugees or something.

01:17:17.040 You say, are they though?

01:17:18.240 Why are they 90% men? 0.98

01:17:19.160 And that's it.

01:17:19.920 You don't have to go, no,

01:17:20.700 they're not, because

01:17:21.280 do-do-do-do-do, and Enoch

01:17:22.260 Powell, and do-do-do-do.

01:17:22.940 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:17:23.220 You can just go, is it the

01:17:25.200 case?

01:17:25.620 Take some notes from

01:17:26.440 Pierre Polivert and, you

01:17:28.480 know, say who, when, how, 0.99

01:17:30.120 why, and get them to hang 1.00

01:17:31.960 themselves. 1.00

01:17:32.360 You're absolutely right.

01:17:33.280 Yeah.

01:17:33.720 Like, you see people do it

01:17:34.800 about Trump. 1.00

01:17:35.240 Trump's a racist. 0.99

01:17:36.020 Oh, well, what's the exact 1.00

01:17:37.420 quote where he said

01:17:38.100 something racist? 0.99

01:17:39.080 Nigel Farage is a racist. 0.98

01:17:40.560 Oh, is he though? 0.99

01:17:41.880 Yeah.

01:17:42.060 So, what, what, what,

01:17:44.020 give me, give me the quote

01:17:44.900 and send me a link to

01:17:46.260 when he said, did that.

01:17:47.400 And they've, the rotten

01:17:49.120 edifice collapses very

01:17:50.060 quickly, nearly always.

01:17:51.240 I've got a bad feeling

01:17:52.600 about what this next clip

01:17:53.960 is going to be.

01:17:54.920 Go on, then.

01:17:55.240 I've got to, yeah, I

01:17:57.880 know what this is going

01:17:58.540 to be. 0.99

01:17:58.780 Go on, go on, hit us. 0.90

01:18:03.460 And of course, for the

01:18:04.660 very online, Skibbity

01:18:06.500 Biden.

01:18:07.220 Yeah.

01:18:07.480 Oh, God.

01:18:07.900 Skibbity Biden.

01:18:09.420 Skibbity, Skibbity

01:18:10.400 Biden.

01:18:10.840 Skibbity Biden.

01:18:12.480 Joe, Joe, Joe.

01:18:13.400 Skibbity, Skibbity Biden.

01:18:15.340 Hitler's language.

01:18:16.340 Trump, Trump.

01:18:17.260 Trump is using

01:18:18.240 Hitler's language.

01:18:19.760 Hitler's language.

01:18:21.140 Trump is using

01:18:22.080 Hitler's language.

01:18:23.620 Skibbity, Skibbity.

01:18:25.300 Actually more coherent

01:18:26.640 than the bait last night.

01:18:28.420 I've never seen that

01:18:29.260 before.

01:18:30.220 NPC's clapping here.

01:18:31.620 Yep.

01:18:32.740 Yeah, right.

01:18:34.760 How much context

01:18:36.060 do you want for this?

01:18:37.920 None.

01:18:38.780 There you go.

01:18:39.760 There you go.

01:18:40.220 Let's move on.

01:18:41.240 I don't think Trump

01:18:41.860 speaks German either.

01:18:44.240 That's all of them.

01:18:45.120 Let's read some of the

01:18:45.820 comments.

01:18:47.260 Fiesta asks,

01:18:48.220 when Islander will be 0.95

01:18:49.060 shipped out?

01:18:49.580 And I have been

01:18:50.240 reliably informed it

01:18:51.120 will be the end of

01:18:51.940 the first week of

01:18:52.840 July.

01:18:54.000 So very soon.

01:18:55.560 Look forward to that.

01:18:56.640 After the election.

01:18:59.940 Sam also asks,

01:19:01.120 is the gold tier

01:19:02.240 Zoom call going to be 0.96

01:19:02.900 today?

01:19:03.280 And that is indeed

01:19:04.040 going to be after the

01:19:05.060 podcast.

01:19:05.620 Yeah, three o'clock.

01:19:06.780 Luca says,

01:19:07.620 who's more of a

01:19:08.100 vegetable at this point?

01:19:08.780 Joe Biden or Henry

01:19:09.640 the sixth?

01:19:12.220 Well, I mean,

01:19:13.960 I'm going to

01:19:16.780 charitably give it to

01:19:17.960 Henry the sixth.

01:19:19.380 He's been dead for a

01:19:20.400 few hundred years.

01:19:21.540 He actually suffered

01:19:22.220 from actual mutism,

01:19:23.800 didn't he?

01:19:24.300 Yeah.

01:19:24.740 Almost semi-comatose

01:19:26.040 mutism.

01:19:26.880 Joe Biden's only been

01:19:27.640 there for a few

01:19:28.180 hundred decades.

01:19:28.860 For a few dozen

01:19:31.420 decades.

01:19:32.200 Base tape says,

01:19:32.880 I can't actually believe

01:19:33.880 that it's time to

01:19:34.480 run Biden again.

01:19:35.460 I can't even think of

01:19:36.200 a way to joke about it.

01:19:37.080 This is just sad.

01:19:38.060 Yeah, it is kind of

01:19:38.860 sad.

01:19:39.040 That's the thing.

01:19:39.540 It's like,

01:19:40.560 just like,

01:19:42.880 this is why Trump

01:19:44.120 actually came across

01:19:44.920 quite well.

01:19:45.840 That RNC video was

01:19:47.320 kind of difficult to

01:19:48.080 get through.

01:19:48.460 It reminded me of my

01:19:49.400 grandfather when he

01:19:50.760 was passing away.

01:19:51.980 Yeah, I know.

01:19:52.480 It's really hard to

01:19:53.640 watch.

01:19:54.160 He should be sitting

01:19:55.040 in a nursing home

01:19:55.780 eating ice cream.

01:19:56.700 Yeah.

01:19:57.580 In Florida,

01:19:58.620 so his teeth don't

01:19:59.340 ache.

01:19:59.820 Yeah.

01:20:00.700 Nero Enrique sends

01:20:01.640 a super chat and

01:20:02.320 says,

01:20:02.800 I think the question

01:20:03.360 most normally are

01:20:03.940 asking themselves

01:20:04.900 after the debate is

01:20:06.440 who's actually

01:20:06.920 performing the duties

01:20:07.560 of the president

01:20:08.140 because it's

01:20:08.640 certainly not Biden.

01:20:09.560 That's the thing

01:20:10.180 everyone can see.

01:20:11.600 Luke says,

01:20:12.300 managed to catch

01:20:12.700 the podcast live

01:20:13.420 today,

01:20:13.780 which is probably a

01:20:14.220 good thing as the

01:20:14.860 YouTube gods will

01:20:15.460 not allow any

01:20:15.880 comments about the

01:20:16.420 Trump-Biden debate

01:20:17.320 as Sleepy Joe

01:20:18.180 did so badly.

01:20:19.100 No, I think it's

01:20:19.660 going to be one of

01:20:20.060 those things where

01:20:20.720 the dam is broken

01:20:23.840 and the flood

01:20:24.520 will deluge itself

01:20:26.560 over the landscape

01:20:27.260 and even YouTube

01:20:27.940 says that we can't

01:20:28.920 delete every comment

01:20:30.300 because every comment

01:20:31.900 is going to be

01:20:32.340 like Biden's side.

01:20:34.480 This Chase Ball

01:20:35.420 comment's great.

01:20:36.800 It was nice to see

01:20:37.540 a refined and

01:20:38.060 collected Trump.

01:20:38.760 I do miss 2016

01:20:39.740 Trump.

01:20:40.580 They call him

01:20:40.980 poopy jokes.

01:20:41.700 He pooped his

01:20:42.120 diaper in front of 0.71

01:20:42.700 the Pope.

01:20:43.360 I would never have

01:20:43.860 done that.

01:20:44.180 Everyone agrees.

01:20:44.860 I have the best

01:20:45.220 bowel function,

01:20:45.780 maybe ever.

01:20:47.400 Yeah, but it was

01:20:48.120 nice to see Trump

01:20:48.940 being quite refined

01:20:49.860 and collected,

01:20:50.440 actually.

01:20:50.720 He came across

01:20:51.900 in a much more

01:20:53.100 respectable way

01:20:53.940 while Joe Biden

01:20:54.720 was just zoning

01:20:55.760 out.

01:20:56.880 Grant says,

01:20:57.660 they did six days

01:20:59.080 of preparation

01:20:59.560 for the debate.

01:21:00.620 I think they

01:21:01.340 genuinely thought

01:21:01.980 the pharmaceutical

01:21:02.420 team could pull

01:21:03.340 it off to keep

01:21:04.280 their stuff shut

01:21:04.920 in the White

01:21:05.240 House for another

01:21:05.680 four years.

01:21:06.920 Solfine says,

01:21:07.600 they replaced him

01:21:08.900 after the debate

01:21:09.520 so they don't have

01:21:11.480 the replacement

01:21:11.960 debate him.

01:21:13.600 I will say,

01:21:14.260 I don't think he's

01:21:14.720 got so much of a

01:21:15.400 pharmaceutical team

01:21:16.440 as a morgue

01:21:17.640 that's running and

01:21:18.380 pumping him full of

01:21:19.460 formaldehyde.

01:21:21.780 Furious Dan says,

01:21:22.840 the debate couldn't

01:21:23.360 have gone better

01:21:23.960 for Trump.

01:21:24.640 He was never

01:21:25.040 going to convince

01:21:25.560 them voters to

01:21:26.260 vote for him, 0.91

01:21:27.080 but by letting

01:21:27.640 Biden crash and

01:21:28.640 burn himself, 0.70

01:21:29.280 he has crushed

01:21:29.680 their hopes instead.

01:21:30.540 Yeah, no, I think

01:21:31.100 that's totally true.

01:21:31.880 I actually really

01:21:32.740 think the CNN

01:21:33.900 buzzer, like the 1.00

01:21:35.200 silencing of the

01:21:35.860 mic thing,

01:21:36.560 actually really

01:21:37.260 plagued Trump in

01:21:38.480 the advantage.

01:21:39.260 because if he'd

01:21:40.980 been constantly

01:21:41.780 dogging on Biden,

01:21:43.380 it would have

01:21:44.180 made Biden look

01:21:44.840 a lot more

01:21:45.260 sympathetic.

01:21:46.220 So they actually

01:21:47.000 really gave him

01:21:47.540 a service there.

01:21:49.420 Josie's Angels

01:21:50.120 sends a super

01:21:50.740 chat and says,

01:21:51.700 here's the matter,

01:21:52.960 is the US

01:21:53.400 economy divorced

01:21:54.100 from the consumers

01:21:54.840 enough from the

01:21:56.240 consumers that

01:21:56.680 it will matter?

01:21:57.540 Can Disney,

01:21:58.540 et cetera,

01:21:58.900 survive on

01:21:59.400 WEF funding

01:21:59.980 strategies?

01:22:00.940 There is no way

01:22:01.680 they let Trump

01:22:02.300 take office.

01:22:03.300 I think they're

01:22:03.760 going to be in a

01:22:04.240 position where they

01:22:04.800 just can't help it.

01:22:06.280 That's the thing,

01:22:06.660 I don't think they're

01:22:07.180 absolute masters of

01:22:08.060 the system or

01:22:08.600 anything.

01:22:09.580 And so I think

01:22:10.120 they're going to be

01:22:10.480 in a position where

01:22:11.220 people are just

01:22:12.080 like, okay,

01:22:12.580 yeah, Biden's just

01:22:13.280 died, we're sorry.

01:22:15.040 We're going to vote

01:22:15.740 for the living

01:22:16.280 candidate, even if

01:22:18.300 he's Donald Trump.

01:22:19.260 I do find it a bit

01:22:20.200 funny, interesting,

01:22:21.520 funny, when people

01:22:22.840 say they won't let

01:22:24.240 Trump into office.

01:22:26.780 Well, if you've

01:22:27.800 forgotten, he already

01:22:28.400 did, they already

01:22:28.960 did.

01:22:29.460 We already had it

01:22:30.500 once.

01:22:30.840 They're not that in

01:22:32.600 control of the system.

01:22:33.600 They have a lot of

01:22:34.140 influence, but they're

01:22:35.220 not the absolute

01:22:36.060 masters of it.

01:22:36.620 When the Alan

01:22:38.720 Dulles-run CIA

01:22:39.860 murdered JFK, when

01:22:42.360 that happened, we

01:22:45.040 just don't live in

01:22:46.060 that world anymore, I

01:22:47.180 don't think, because

01:22:47.680 they were, people

01:22:48.740 like Alan Dulles was

01:22:50.700 a true cold

01:22:52.780 warrior.

01:22:54.060 He'd fought in

01:22:54.640 World War, not 0.71

01:22:55.200 fought, he'd been in

01:22:56.000 the intelligence

01:22:56.400 service, the OSS,

01:22:58.500 all through World

01:22:59.400 War II.

01:23:00.200 He was born in the

01:23:01.300 very late 19th

01:23:02.100 century.

01:23:02.440 So anyway, he was

01:23:03.980 dealing with, what

01:23:05.400 was going through his

01:23:06.240 mind was war, real

01:23:07.760 war, where you, where

01:23:09.320 you, where you murder

01:23:10.200 people. 1.00

01:23:10.900 I hate to, I hate to

01:23:12.100 cut this off, but

01:23:12.600 we're running out of

01:23:13.020 time.

01:23:13.760 Okay.

01:23:14.180 Sorry, I apologize.

01:23:15.380 Okay.

01:23:16.420 Josie's Angels again

01:23:17.260 sends another soup

01:23:17.920 chat saying the US

01:23:18.900 farm supply company was

01:23:20.360 called out for DEI and

01:23:21.860 caved within 48 hours.

01:23:23.500 Complete surrender.

01:23:24.300 That's superb.

01:23:24.800 Um, uh, warlord Wu

01:23:28.600 Tutai says the guy on

01:23:30.500 politics, Joe and

01:23:31.160 few actually, uh, has

01:23:32.360 his finger totally on

01:23:33.200 the pulse of how the

01:23:33.920 native English voters

01:23:34.800 are thinking and the

01:23:36.260 lovies will simply

01:23:36.860 dismiss him because he's

01:23:37.740 not exactly Shakespeare

01:23:38.660 the cheek.

01:23:39.500 Yeah.

01:23:39.860 They, they love doing

01:23:40.840 this.

01:23:41.540 Uh, I'm a, I'm a

01:23:42.640 political expert.

01:23:43.660 I'm going to talk to

01:23:44.400 someone who is totally 1.00

01:23:45.480 ignorant on the subject 0.98

01:23:46.600 and ask them their 1.00

01:23:47.140 opinion.

01:23:47.520 And then I'm going to

01:23:48.200 condescend to them as

01:23:49.480 to why they hold that

01:23:50.180 opinion.

01:23:50.540 It's like, mate, they

01:23:50.940 vote.

01:23:51.220 It doesn't matter why

01:23:51.880 they do that.

01:23:52.720 You know, you can be as

01:23:53.380 you can try and humiliate

01:23:54.780 them as much as you 0.59

01:23:55.480 want, but they're still

01:23:56.280 going to vote for

01:23:56.700 Farage.

01:23:57.180 So maybe you should

01:23:57.780 learn your place.

01:23:58.860 Uh, the crusader says

01:23:59.820 we recorded extremely

01:24:00.900 offensive.

01:24:02.140 Yawn trying, try saying

01:24:04.220 something I haven't heard

01:24:04.820 a million times before

01:24:05.660 Jonah.

01:24:06.040 I don't care if it's

01:24:06.940 offensive.

01:24:07.920 Glad people are taking

01:24:08.880 this attitude at this

01:24:09.680 point.

01:24:10.520 Um, Thomas, I can't

01:24:13.600 read that quote.

01:24:15.080 Um, faux pas says I

01:24:17.000 thought being racist was

01:24:17.880 Nigel's unique selling

01:24:18.740 point.

01:24:20.180 Moving on to the

01:24:20.940 radical zoomers.

01:24:22.680 Uh, empire says he tried

01:24:24.560 to boil the frog and

01:24:25.560 the frog noticed.

01:24:27.500 Charlie says it makes

01:24:28.720 sense.

01:24:28.980 The 16 year olds are 0.99

01:24:29.680 going right wing rather

01:24:30.420 than left, but they

01:24:31.620 realize it, uh, or not.

01:24:33.200 The reason seems to be a

01:24:34.060 combination of seeing what

01:24:34.920 their country is becoming,

01:24:35.760 but also because the right

01:24:37.060 wing is the new

01:24:37.640 counterculture.

01:24:38.520 True.

01:24:39.560 Uh, Omar says as one of

01:24:41.100 those mixed race, race

01:24:42.340 kids, I'm immune to race 0.93

01:24:43.700 guilt, England for the

01:24:45.020 English, Auslander

01:24:45.900 house based.

01:24:47.240 Uh, Colin says, yeah, I'm

01:24:49.160 starting to get amazed at

01:24:49.860 how many fellow notices

01:24:50.860 there are among my fellow

01:24:52.320 zoomers, uh, even the 1.00

01:24:53.740 more left leading ones

01:24:54.660 are realizing the damage

01:24:55.620 mass immigration, of 0.69

01:24:56.460 course.

01:24:56.880 This is again, something

01:24:58.020 I've noticed.

01:24:58.700 Even my lefty friends are

01:25:00.000 starting to think, well,

01:25:00.800 actually this, the, the 0.99

01:25:02.040 shit lib paradise that I 0.99

01:25:03.140 want to live in doesn't 0.99

01:25:04.220 mesh well with mass

01:25:05.440 immigration.

01:25:06.920 Weird that, isn't it?

01:25:08.160 It's so weird.

01:25:09.620 Uh, Roman observer says

01:25:10.860 young people want to

01:25:11.740 rebel.

01:25:12.120 They will rebel and

01:25:12.880 follow the cool trend

01:25:14.140 against the established

01:25:15.060 suffocating, uh, left

01:25:16.660 wing culture, but it 0.95

01:25:18.000 doesn't have to just be

01:25:18.720 left wing culture.

01:25:19.260 There's an established

01:25:19.900 suffocating right wing

01:25:20.840 culture that people like

01:25:22.420 John Cleese were, you

01:25:24.220 know, ribbing all through

01:25:26.440 their careers and now

01:25:27.400 that's disappeared.

01:25:28.160 And John Cleese is like,

01:25:28.860 okay, I've got to be the

01:25:30.060 person who tells you what

01:25:30.820 right from wrong is.

01:25:31.660 I can't do that. 0.97

01:25:32.520 I'm a clown. 0.95

01:25:34.160 You know, I've got no 0.96

01:25:35.220 moral thought of

01:25:36.160 affirmative moral

01:25:37.240 thought.

01:25:37.720 I can only critique what

01:25:39.200 other people do.

01:25:39.960 And that's the problem

01:25:40.920 that left has.

01:25:42.000 Um, but, uh, but let's

01:25:44.200 hope the seed bears fruit.

01:25:45.160 Yeah, I totally agree.

01:25:46.220 Some reason people are

01:25:46.980 interested in Harry's mug.

01:25:48.060 Well, that's because that's

01:25:49.260 because it seems that

01:25:50.620 somebody in chat encouraged

01:25:52.880 them to be.

01:25:54.060 And so, so we have a few

01:25:56.040 comments on my mug, which

01:25:57.420 is none of anyone's

01:25:58.460 business.

01:25:58.980 Biden's underpants after

01:25:59.920 the debate last night.

01:26:00.640 It's probably true.

01:26:01.700 I don't think it's quite

01:26:02.700 that.

01:26:02.760 The Dragon Hawk says,

01:26:04.560 dear Harry, please stop

01:26:05.620 using your mug to create

01:26:06.500 a biohazard in Swindon.

01:26:08.020 It's the only way that I

01:26:08.860 can keep the migrants away 1.00

01:26:09.880 from me.

01:26:10.380 A health violation that

01:26:11.600 should be nuked from

01:26:12.340 orbit. 0.58

01:26:12.920 No, quite possible.

01:26:14.920 Dirty Harry in the story of

01:26:16.280 one Lotus Eater in his 0.95

01:26:17.220 filthy mug.

01:26:18.440 Sounds like a good film

01:26:19.480 to me.

01:26:20.640 If I increase my, someone

01:26:22.300 online says, if I increase

01:26:23.640 my sub to gold again,

01:26:24.580 we'll fund a new mug for

01:26:25.540 Harry.

01:26:25.960 Harry, can I see my mug?

01:26:27.080 I don't know, but it's

01:26:27.880 worth a try, right?

01:26:28.880 It's absolutely worth a

01:26:29.960 try.

01:26:30.740 Why can't we just get you

01:26:31.960 a new mug?

01:26:33.580 Well, there's an

01:26:34.840 interesting story behind

01:26:36.140 this.

01:26:37.000 There's an interesting

01:26:37.780 story behind this.

01:26:38.980 Someone, I think last

01:26:41.260 year now, late last year,

01:26:42.640 said that they were

01:26:43.140 sending me in a new HP

01:26:44.900 Lovecraft mug, but it's

01:26:47.340 never shown up, and so

01:26:48.700 I'm still holding out

01:26:50.140 with my heart of hearts

01:26:51.440 that it wasn't just a

01:26:52.480 joke, and in fact, I

01:26:53.820 will receive an HP

01:26:54.780 Lovecraft mug that

01:26:55.900 hopefully doesn't have

01:26:56.640 the name of his cat on

01:26:57.560 it.

01:26:58.480 But for the time being,

01:26:59.860 it still works.

01:27:01.640 It holds liquid.

01:27:03.160 It holds coffee, doesn't

01:27:04.500 it?

01:27:04.780 No one questioned the

01:27:06.200 functionality of the

01:27:07.360 mug.

01:27:10.120 The disease vector.

01:27:12.040 There is no disease in

01:27:13.880 it, and if there is, I

01:27:14.880 am refining my, I'm

01:27:19.800 refining my immune

01:27:20.820 system every day.

01:27:22.380 It's going to be

01:27:22.760 patient zero for

01:27:23.880 Legionnaire's disease

01:27:24.720 or something.

01:27:25.120 I'm vaccinating myself

01:27:26.300 day in, day out,

01:27:27.360 against all manner of

01:27:28.360 diseases.

01:27:28.900 I don't even know yet.

01:27:30.240 The Swindon wet

01:27:31.080 market, basically.

01:27:32.260 Isn't it?

01:27:32.800 My mug.

01:27:35.440 Anne says, can we get

01:27:36.420 low-seater predictions

01:27:37.260 for reform seats?

01:27:38.360 I have Bo on the

01:27:38.920 book seven.

01:27:39.780 What say you, Harry

01:27:40.420 and Carl?

01:27:40.960 How many seats do

01:27:41.560 you reckon reform

01:27:41.940 there?

01:27:42.360 I'm going to be

01:27:42.840 optimistic and say

01:27:43.560 25.

01:27:44.020 See, it really

01:27:46.700 depends on how

01:27:47.560 things go, right?

01:27:48.780 Because, again, there

01:27:49.960 are a couple more

01:27:50.400 days and anything

01:27:51.060 could change.

01:27:52.740 And there could be

01:27:53.660 like a quiet reform

01:27:55.040 vote that comes out.

01:27:56.280 Well, that's what I'm

01:27:56.760 thinking, is that the

01:27:57.760 polls aren't

01:27:58.460 everything.

01:27:59.100 Not everybody is

01:27:59.840 answering the polls.

01:28:00.760 The polls said

01:28:01.360 Brexit wasn't going

01:28:02.160 to happen.

01:28:02.220 People often lie to

01:28:03.020 pollsters.

01:28:03.540 The polls said that

01:28:05.320 Trump wasn't going to

01:28:06.240 get in in 2016.

01:28:08.200 Yeah, it could be a

01:28:09.660 shy...

01:28:09.880 I mean, there was a

01:28:11.340 poll the other day

01:28:11.900 that had Farage on

01:28:12.600 like 50 seats or

01:28:13.440 something.

01:28:14.040 We should be like,

01:28:14.440 oh my God, that

01:28:15.620 would be an actual

01:28:16.480 earthquake in

01:28:17.700 part.

01:28:17.800 Well, I've seen

01:28:18.220 everything from

01:28:18.920 zero, them not

01:28:19.880 actually winning any

01:28:20.560 seats, putting a

01:28:21.200 UKIP, to 187 and

01:28:23.880 90pm in a week's

01:28:25.180 time.

01:28:25.880 So, I think...

01:28:28.580 I'm not saying I

01:28:31.340 think it's going to

01:28:31.820 happen.

01:28:32.420 I think between 5 and

01:28:33.940 10 is realistic.

01:28:35.700 Yeah.

01:28:35.960 And I'd take one.

01:28:37.260 Yeah, I'd take one.

01:28:37.960 I'd have a

01:28:38.320 Farage in Parliament.

01:28:39.460 Yeah.

01:28:39.600 There are seats that

01:28:40.340 don't have reform

01:28:41.260 candidates, like my

01:28:42.240 personal position.

01:28:43.520 Yeah.

01:28:44.720 But, I don't know, I'll

01:28:46.320 say 15.

01:28:47.500 Say 15.

01:28:49.300 All right, then.

01:28:50.380 That's all the time

01:28:51.260 we've got.

01:28:51.900 But for all of you
