00:00:47.760 The battle over the upcoming by-election
00:00:49.940 in Gorton and Denton has, so far, been largely uneventful.
00:00:53.700 The Labour Party, which holds the seat,
00:00:55.480 looks set to lose it, as you'd expect.
00:00:57.200 Their leader has, after all,
00:00:58.640 the worst personal satisfaction ratings
00:01:00.380 of any British prime minister since records began.
00:01:03.260 Reform looks set to do well,
00:01:04.640 which with immigration dominating
00:01:05.980 the political conversation is also unsurprising.
00:01:08.660 The Greens are also performing strongly
00:01:10.380 and, like reform, may even win the seat,
00:01:12.940 for reasons I explained in my last video.
00:01:15.160 So far, so predictable.
00:01:17.240 But then, a video by Green candidate Hannah Spencer
00:01:19.880 began doing the rounds.
00:01:21.540 The clip itself is unremarkable.
00:01:23.400 It wouldn't even be worth discussing
00:01:24.900 if it weren't for one minor detail.
00:01:26.640 It's delivered entirely in Urdu.
00:01:28.580 My name is Hannah Spencer.
00:01:32.240 Now, you might be thinking,
00:01:37.200 look how right-wing Constantine has become.
00:01:39.720 Why does anyone care whether a few unrepresentative areas
00:01:42.640 have a lot of people from a particular community living there?
00:01:45.480 After all, this tends to happen
00:01:47.240 when groups of people move from country to country.
00:01:49.460 People are not atomized individuals,
00:01:51.860 especially in more traditional societies.
00:01:54.320 British settlers who moved to the New World
00:01:56.340 didn't move in groups of three either.
00:01:58.840 A lot of immigration happens in clusters.
00:02:01.120 It's why so many big cities have a Chinatown.
00:02:03.560 I'm not against Chinatowns.
00:02:05.580 Then again, I've never seen a British politician
00:02:07.380 campaigning in Chinese.
00:02:08.820 I'm aware, as I say this,
00:02:10.420 that some American viewers might find it strange
00:02:13.220 that I take issue with this.
00:02:14.920 After all, there are many parts of the US
00:02:16.860 where you'll get by just as easily with Spanish
00:02:18.940 as you will with English.
00:02:20.200 There's a big difference between Britain and America
00:02:22.300 as a British-born Pakistani Uber driver
00:02:24.980 once explained to me in Los Angeles.
00:02:26.980 British people aren't racist, he said.
00:02:28.920 It's just space.
00:02:30.000 Britain is a small country.
00:02:31.480 America is a big country.
00:02:32.920 When you move to America,
00:02:34.420 you're not taking someone else's space.
00:02:36.500 This reflects in the linguistic differences too.
00:02:39.120 When you become an American citizen,
00:02:40.980 you're called a first-generation American.
00:02:43.120 When you become a British citizen,
00:02:44.860 you're a first-generation immigrant.
00:02:46.520 I'm not complaining.
00:02:47.260 That's what I call myself
00:02:48.520 because that's a cultural difference
00:02:49.980 between Britain and America.
00:02:51.360 This difference is partly caused by something else too.
00:02:54.600 America displaced its native population
00:02:57.040 and replaced it with waves of colonists
00:02:58.920 from different parts of Europe
00:03:00.080 and later immigrants from all over the world.
00:03:02.420 With the exception of the people
00:03:03.700 brought there against their will,
00:03:05.440 they all effectively took the land from someone else.
00:03:08.020 Whether your ancestors did the initial taking
00:03:10.100 or moved there more recently,
00:03:11.940 you still benefit from that land being taken
00:03:14.400 by living on it.
00:03:15.280 The native population of North America
00:03:17.420 is dwarfed by the more recent arrivals.
00:03:20.740 I say more recent and not recent
00:03:22.840 because when it comes to land,
00:03:24.880 someone always took it from someone else.
00:03:27.260 With the exception of Australian aboriginals,
00:03:29.780 there are no people in the world
00:03:31.400 who can claim they were the first modern humans
00:03:33.560 to settle on land they currently occupy
00:03:35.680 outside a handful of tiny isolated island communities.
00:03:39.680 Everyone else took the land
00:03:41.160 they currently live on from someone else.
00:03:43.120 And because Americans have a collective sense
00:03:45.360 of being historically recent arrivals,
00:03:47.560 it's just that much harder for them
00:03:49.560 to deny other people the American dream
00:03:51.800 their great-grandparents saw,
00:03:53.740 provided they do it legally.
00:03:55.260 As I've explained before,
00:03:56.800 until very, very recently,
00:03:58.260 Britain was a highly ethnically
00:03:59.640 and culturally homogenous society.
00:04:01.800 Your opinion of whether that's good or bad
00:04:03.840 is unimportant for the purposes
00:04:05.180 of what I'm saying here.
00:04:06.460 The fact is,
00:04:07.480 in the lifetime of almost everyone alive today,
00:04:10.840 London and other British cities
00:04:12.500 have gone from being overwhelmingly populated
00:04:14.740 by native Brits to being majority-minority.
00:04:17.880 In 1991, 35 years ago,
00:04:20.400 London was estimated to be 80% white British.
00:04:23.440 By 2021, 30 years later,
00:04:25.860 it was 36.8% white British.
00:04:28.700 Over 75% of the country's population
00:04:31.020 is over the age of 35.
00:04:32.860 This dramatic change happened in the lifetimes
00:04:35.040 of three out of four people in Britain today.
00:04:37.680 And that's not a political statement,
00:04:39.580 it's a fact.
00:04:40.200 Forget about the skin colors
00:04:41.640 and races of the people involved.
00:04:43.660 When European settlers came to North America
00:04:45.680 and within a couple of generations
00:04:47.120 became the more populous people
00:04:48.540 on the eastern seaboard
00:04:49.460 of today's United States,
00:04:50.820 on a scale from one dissatisfied
00:04:52.660 to 10 delighted,
00:04:54.140 how happy do you think the natives were?
00:04:56.460 Constantine,
00:04:57.260 you can't possibly compare the horrors
00:04:59.060 inflicted on the native population
00:05:00.740 of North America
00:05:01.640 by a combination of brutal warfare,
00:05:04.080 deadly European disease,
00:05:05.360 enforced displacement,
00:05:06.440 and ethnic cleansing,
00:05:07.260 I hear you say.
00:05:08.760 And you're right,
00:05:09.680 no reasonable person
00:05:10.880 would make that comparison.
00:05:12.880 But say the colonists
00:05:13.880 had moved to America
00:05:14.840 because a handful of Native American leaders
00:05:17.340 had welcomed them in
00:05:18.400 despite the repeatedly expressed wishes
00:05:20.660 of their citizens.
00:05:21.740 Britain, after all,
00:05:22.600 voted against mass immigration in 2010,
00:05:25.080 2015,
00:05:25.960 2016 with Brexit,
00:05:27.220 2017,
00:05:28.040 2019,
00:05:28.800 and 2024
00:05:29.740 when they punished the Tories
00:05:31.220 for letting immigration spin out of control.
00:05:33.600 So in our example,
00:05:34.540 say there was no war,
00:05:36.040 no violence,
00:05:36.720 and the displacement happened
00:05:37.860 entirely peacefully
00:05:38.760 and without coercion.
00:05:40.100 Would you concede
00:05:40.880 that in that situation,
00:05:42.320 quite a lot of Native Americans
00:05:43.640 might have a few questions
00:05:44.980 about whether their leaders
00:05:46.400 made a better decision
00:05:47.500 than the one they elected them to make?
00:05:49.320 This is why
00:05:49.900 I didn't agree with Sir Jim Ratcliffe
00:05:51.640 using the word colonization
00:05:53.120 to describe what's happened in Britain.
00:05:55.100 But it's also why
00:05:55.860 I refuse to criticize him for it.
00:05:57.800 Like all of us,
00:05:58.760 he's trying to feel his way
00:06:00.220 towards the right word
00:06:01.220 to describe what's happened
00:06:02.360 in much of Europe
00:06:03.120 in the last few decades.
00:06:04.600 It's hard
00:06:05.120 because what's happened
00:06:06.300 is completely unprecedented.
00:06:08.020 Never in the history
00:06:08.900 of our countries
00:06:09.700 have our rulers decided
00:06:10.900 that opening the borders
00:06:12.040 to so many people
00:06:12.920 from the rest of the world
00:06:13.940 was a good idea.
00:06:15.460 Indeed,
00:06:16.020 at any other point
00:06:17.140 in human history,
00:06:18.340 the suggestion
00:06:18.860 that we should pursue
00:06:19.660 this course of action
00:06:20.580 would have been met
00:06:21.580 with bemusement
00:06:22.320 to put it very,
00:06:23.500 very mildly.
00:06:24.540 It's happened
00:06:25.120 in a very short period of time
00:06:26.720 and not only without
00:06:27.960 the consent
00:06:28.580 of the British people
00:06:29.540 but in direct contravention
00:06:31.220 of their wishes.
00:06:32.340 Words like invasion
00:06:33.380 and colonization
00:06:34.320 which the edgelordy wing
00:06:35.600 of the internet
00:06:36.140 is so fond of using
00:06:37.160 sound like the people
00:06:38.540 your anger is directed at
00:06:39.860 are the immigrants themselves.
00:06:41.340 This is why
00:06:41.900 the Be Kind Brigade
00:06:43.020 keep claiming
00:06:43.680 that people with concerns
00:06:44.740 about immigration
00:06:45.500 are demonizing immigrants.
00:06:47.040 But 95% of the anger
00:06:48.940 I see is directed
00:06:49.880 at the people
00:06:50.460 who did this.
00:06:51.400 British politicians
00:06:52.240 of all three major parties.
00:06:54.500 I don't hate other people
00:06:55.660 for wanting to come here.
00:06:57.160 Britain is wonderful.
00:06:58.260 Why wouldn't they?
00:06:59.180 I don't even hate
00:06:59.980 the politicians
00:07:00.560 who've done this.
00:07:01.600 Some of them at least
00:07:02.440 have the excuse
00:07:03.120 of being incompetent
00:07:04.200 and naive.
00:07:05.080 But the people
00:07:05.520 I am starting to hate
00:07:06.800 are the liars
00:07:07.800 and the hypocrites
00:07:08.640 who want to have it
00:07:09.820 both ways.
00:07:10.680 If you say
00:07:11.420 that too many people
00:07:12.320 in Britain
00:07:12.720 don't speak English,
00:07:13.920 live in a perilous society
00:07:15.160 and don't integrate,
00:07:16.440 you'll be shouted down
00:07:17.420 and called names
00:07:18.200 by the very same people
00:07:19.740 who are campaigning
00:07:20.640 in a foreign language.
00:07:22.040 You can't have your cake
00:07:23.120 and eat it too.
00:07:24.460 Either multiculturalism
00:07:25.860 is all hunky-dory,
00:07:26.940 diversity is our greatest strength
00:07:28.260 and if only
00:07:28.720 the great unwashed
00:07:30.060 would stop grumbling
00:07:30.920 about immigration,
00:07:31.940 the kind, decent,
00:07:33.060 welcoming gardenistas
00:07:34.100 of North London
00:07:34.960 could finally live peacefully
00:07:36.680 in glorious citizen
00:07:37.700 of the world harmony.
00:07:39.300 Or you have to concede
00:07:40.920 that there are parts
00:07:41.660 of the country
00:07:42.160 where if you want
00:07:42.880 to reach voters
00:07:43.540 you have to speak
00:07:44.320 their language
00:07:45.320 not the language
00:07:46.220 of our country.
00:07:47.660 Many of the people
00:07:48.620 who defend the policy
00:07:49.640 of mass immigration
00:07:50.540 are only doing it
00:07:51.740 because they suffer
00:07:52.420 few of the consequences
00:07:53.540 and reap many
00:07:54.560 of the benefits.
00:07:55.680 That's a perfectly
00:07:56.260 rational thing
00:07:57.060 for them to do.
00:07:58.140 If a policy benefits you
00:07:59.460 more than it harms you
00:08:00.400 it's a good policy.
00:08:01.860 For you.
00:08:02.680 But as Argentinian
00:08:03.680 President Javier Malay
00:08:04.760 once said
00:08:05.280 in his characteristic style
00:08:06.660 we can all be whores
00:08:07.840 with someone else's arse.
00:08:09.320 If mass immigration
00:08:10.180 is good for you
00:08:10.980 fine.
00:08:11.880 Can you at least
00:08:12.360 stop making the rest
00:08:13.280 of the country
00:08:13.760 pretend it's good
00:08:14.500 for them too
00:08:15.060 and calling them names
00:08:16.000 if they refuse?
00:08:17.420 If you enjoy these videos
00:08:18.600 remember they're available
00:08:19.540 on my sub stack
00:08:20.400 days, weeks
00:08:21.440 sometimes months

00:08:27.220 Most people think
00:08:28.300 they're informed.
00:08:29.380 In reality
00:08:30.020 they're selectively informed.
00:08:31.660 Modern media
00:08:32.240 doesn't just tell stories.
00:08:33.780 It quietly decides
00:08:35.080 which ones
00:08:35.620 you never hear about
00:08:36.580 at all.
00:08:37.220 That's why
00:08:37.700 I use Ground News.
00:08:39.120 It's the only app
00:08:40.300 that compares
00:08:40.960 how the same story
00:08:41.920 is covered
00:08:42.320 across the political spectrum
00:08:43.640 and show you
00:08:44.620 what whole audiences
00:08:45.580 are not being told.
00:08:46.840 The Blindspot feed
00:08:47.780 is one of my favorite features.
00:08:49.600 Every day
00:08:50.040 it flags upwards
00:08:50.840 of 20 stories
00:08:51.780 that are being ignored
00:08:52.660 either by the left
00:08:53.580 or the right.
00:08:54.420 Follow along
00:08:54.900 at ground.news
00:08:55.900 slash trigonometry.
00:08:56.940 Take this story.
00:08:57.840 A major U.S. poll
00:08:58.860 found that Republican
00:08:59.780 voters' confidence
00:09:00.660 in Trump's economic leadership
00:09:02.100 has dropped sharply
00:09:03.280 during his second term.
00:09:04.640 That is not
00:09:05.180 a minor data point.
00:09:06.420 If you only read
00:09:07.200 right-leaning publications
00:09:08.320 you would have
00:09:09.140 missed this completely.
00:09:10.080 On the other hand
00:09:11.060 look at this.
00:09:11.980 The UAE drops UK
00:09:13.160 from scholarship list
00:09:14.260 over radicalization concerns
00:09:15.860 on university campuses.
00:09:17.520 That's a significant story.
00:09:19.020 Yet coverage
00:09:19.720 from left-leaning outlets
00:09:20.820 was almost non-existent.
00:09:22.260 Ground News
00:09:22.720 puts all of this
00:09:23.500 in one place.
00:09:24.420 Headlines,
00:09:25.100 bias breakdowns,
