2026 Ought to be Good

I think things are going our way.

Time Text
I thought we'd have a nice little New Year's Eve stream.
I mean, it's only New Year's Eve for like another 15 minutes.
And I'm early chat, so, you know, you can't complain.
Yeah, I thought we'd have a nice little New Year's Eve stream because why not?
Be a bit of fun.
I'm too old to want to celebrate New Year's Eve.
I have celebrated too many New Year's Eves in my time.
And it's just too much work, frankly.
You know, we'd have to find babysitters for the kids.
And then we go out, we get drunk.
You know, we'd have to find somewhere to go.
I don't even get invited to anywhere these days.
So I would have to find somewhere to go.
And it's just, I can't be bothered, frankly.
I just can't be bothered.
Like I said, too old for it, too tired for it, frankly.
Like Christmas, when you've got as many kids as I've got, Christmas is just exhausting.
And so, oh, where the hell's that gone?
However, I don't get to see any actual information about the stream from YouTube, which okay.
Thanks, YouTube.
Yeah, well, New Year's Eve is, of course, racist.
I saw that there was a post by Met Police being like, if you're thinking about watching the London fireworks at this particular place, well, we've shut it down, so you can't do that.
It's like, oh, really?
You miserable.
And they were like, oh, no, no, this came from the mayor.
This didn't come from us.
And it's like, oh, did it?
All right.
You know, this comes from the head office, which I believe in.
It's like, yeah, you can't just look at the taxpayer-funded fireworks from a position that you like.
So, suck it.
Oh, you might hear bops in the background because there are people with fireworks, of course.
My kids are thrilled with the fireworks.
Yeah, you know what, right?
So, overall, I actually think that 2025 was quite a good year.
I don't think 2025 was bad.
It was rough because we're living under Kirstama.
But I think everyone knew it was going to be bad, right?
I think everyone knew that, okay, well, you know, you just have to knuckle under and just deal with the fact that you're under a tyrannical government that fucking hates you and wants you completely replaced, right?
So it's one of those, yeah, you wouldn't still watching fireworks.
Exactly, Russian.
And a happy new year to you guys too, Robert.
But we knew it was going to be bad.
But I feel that politically, everything was actually going quite well.
I've been doing a sort of video series with Dan on Load Ceter's podcast channel, where we just sit down and just discuss every week the current political state of play.
And things are changing really quickly, actually.
Excuse me.
One of the things that we're seeing is reform getting a lot of counselors.
Same with the Lib Dems.
And so it's this kind of flight from the old guard, from Labour and Conservatives, which is wonderful to see.
You know, you want both of those parties to completely collapse and just be completely dead on their asses.
And basically for it to be over for them, right?
We want something new for the new century.
I mean, it's not going to be terribly great.
You know, it's going to be quite milquetoast.
But it's something, right?
It's some change, something different.
In America, you, of course, have the midterms, right?
So good luck with those.
And I see a lot of people worrying that the Democrats are going to win.
And it's like, oh, it's not good, is it?
Yeah, there's a lot of infighting on the right over there and over here and everywhere else.
YouTube feature.
Am I YouTube featured?
No way.
How did that happen?
How do I find out?
Well, I'm YouTube featured.
I don't believe that.
Or am I misreading what you've said there?
Anyway, right.
So there's that.
And then over here, it's a different situation.
It's quite exciting because basically the question is, how long can Keir Starmer hang on to power for?
How long can Labour legitimately carry on without basically everyone around them saying, look, you just need to call a general election, right?
just need to call a general um and so honestly it's i'm mildly optimistic right i'm mildly optimistic I would be surprised if there isn't a general election next year.
I think that the political pressure and the economic pressure on Labour is going to get so great that it will just be untenable for them to limp on.
And, you know, hopefully there are massive protests.
Hopefully there are huge events.
Hopefully there's just, you know, straws on the camel's back.
And this results in a general election.
I mean, I think Nigel Farage will win, but at the moment, he's been sort of stipping in the polls a bit.
But I suspect it's because Nigel isn't a political noob.
He knows what he's doing.
And he realizes that while there isn't an election on the horizon to play for, there's no point campaigning hard, right?
Because all you do is give your opponents breathing space to adjust and react and craft their own counter narratives to whatever it is you're attacking with.
And so hopefully he's just keeping his powder dry.
Now, he might not be.
He might be not doing a very good job or something.
But I'm going to be optimistic.
I'm going to be optimistic.
I'm going to assume he's keeping his powder dry and that everything is he's ready for a fight, right?
He's ready to up the ante on a bunch of stuff.
Because it may well be that in 2026, we get a reformed government.
Now, just want to be clear, don't have high expectations for this.
Nigel is not the radical right-winger you wish he was.
He's not going to do anything particularly outlandish.
And he will, even though he is basically a center-right conservative himself, he will face massive institutional resistance.
Because Farage isn't a radical, but he is at least not one of them, right?
He was always on the sort of edge of what was politically acceptable.
And Brexit was definitely not what they wanted.
And he forced it upon them.
So he's at least something that's not them.
So there's that.
But he's not going to do a, you know, he's not going to do remigration.
He's not going to do mass deportations.
He's not going to abolish hate speech laws.
He is not going to pass the Great Repeal Act and just undo everything Blair did from 1997 onwards.
Blair and the Tories.
Sorry, I shouldn't just blame Blair.
The Blairite Project.
He's not going to do any of those things.
But it might be worth crafting the narrative that he will.
Right?
On the plus side, the establishment talks about him like he's the second coming of Hitler.
Now, he's not going to do anything radical, like I said, but maybe he doesn't have to.
Maybe if everyone just thinks that he's going to, that will be enough to encourage a significant proportion of the immigrants here to self-deport.
Like, oh, yeah, Nigel.
Oh, yeah, you better watch out.
Nigel Farage.
Fucking maniac, mate.
He just hates all black and brown people.
Just hates them.
Loaths them.
You've no idea.
And he's about to take power.
So you might want to just, you know, just think about getting out while you still can.
You know, like the narrative that they will spin about Farage.
I mean, they're already doing it.
They're already calling him Hitler.
Right.
How much worse can it get?
So it may well be that's the best we can do, basically, is just imply, yeah, Farage is a maniac.
He better get out while you still can.
He's not going to do any significant changes, though, unfortunately.
I don't think.
And you know what?
I'd be thrilled to be proven wrong.
Thrilled to be proven wrong on this.
If Farage comes out of the gate repealing like a demon, I'd be like, great, wonderful.
But I don't think he's going to.
I'm just a bit jaded when it comes to Farage.
But like I said, I'll vote for him.
I'll support him.
And I'm happy to see how he does.
He's the only option that's on the table at the moment.
I realize there are going to be people who say, oh, but what about this thing that isn't even registering the polls?
And it's like, yeah, until you're registering the polls, it doesn't mean anything, really.
I'm sorry to say.
And that goes on both sides.
Like, your party got like 1% in the polls the other day.
Don't worry about it.
Just do not worry about it.
It's not going anywhere.
Corbyn is never going to win a general election.
It's not happening.
Just worry about those things that are actually on the board, I'd say, in the public consciousness.
Even though they're not going to be perfect, even though they're not going to be things we want.
But yeah, overall, I'm mildly optimistic.
Someone, Jonathan, sent in a super chat.
Do you think Stalin will still be leader in 2026?
Well, I mean, yeah, going into 2026, he will be.
But the May local elections are bound to be a wipeout for Labour.
If the local elections throughout the by-elections and various other council elections that happen throughout 2025 are an any indication, the May elections are just going to see Labour become like the third or fourth party, if not more.
It's just crazy how there are a bunch of condemned men walking and they all know it, right?
They all know.
They're seeing the polls and basically the entire Labour front bench will lose their seats in a general election.
Like the entire government will be ousted, not just from the governing party, but from parliament itself.
Like people are basically just going to be kicking them out of politics.
And that's really remarkable.
That very rarely happens.
So it's, it's, I'm, I'm kind of excited for it, to be honest.
I'm, I'm looking forward.
We'll probably do a May election streams, uh, night stream on load seaters.
Um, because they're always great fun.
We'll get a bunch of people on and we just get to enjoy them getting fucking waxed.
I'm going to enjoy them getting fucking waxed.
Um, and so yeah, like I'm mildly optimistic.
I realize that everything is shit, though.
Like, obviously, it's shit for us.
You know, everything costs costs so much.
And just the taxes.
Oh, God, I'm going to have to pay taxes in January.
And, oh, God, I just want to kill myself.
It's, I just hate, hate taxes so much.
I just don't feel like a selfish person for not wanting to have my money spooed up the wall by Keir Starmer.
But just distribute to a bunch of immigrants.
Here you go.
Here's Carl's money.
It's like Just trust the democratic process.
Just trust it.
It's got to work Of course this is really live caretaker Um Which is why I'm so tired.
Because it's nearly midnight and I get woken up early every goddamn day of my life.
Hearing my kids screaming about who had this toy first.
And then I have to get up and be like, oh, shut up.
Try to sleep.
So yeah, anyway.
Oh, Mr. Wonderful 99.
Sargon is the enemy.
He just demoralizes you.
Me.
I think everything's going great, guys.
I think we're going to win.
What are you talking about?
I'm being an optimist.
Like, I am an optimist.
I'm an actual optimist.
And I think we are going to win.
I think Farage is going to win in 2026.
And I do think there'll be an election.
But it could come later in the year than you think.
Now, obviously, everyone is thinking, okay, if the mayor elections go really badly for Starmer, surely he's going to step down.
Well, you know, I don't know, right?
Starmer, up until this point, has been basically impervious to the traditional logic of British electoral politics, right?
Like, you would think, yes, Russian, trust the democratic process.
You would think that the man is concerned about leading his party straight to ruin.
But he doesn't seem to be bothered by it at all.
And if I were in Labour, I'd be like, guys, we're all about to get metaphorically fucking shot.
Like, and Starmer doesn't seem to care at all.
Are we going to do something about this?
Because the only revolt against Starmer can come from within his own party, at least electorally.
No, no, Starmer standdown does not automatically trigger an election.
But hopefully, there's enough Labour infighting and enough failures in the same way that the Conservatives went through a period of prime ministers.
Hopefully, literally every couple of months, the Labour Party find itself essentially in a state of slow-motion collapse.
But I might be being really optimistic.
I mean, it's definitely not beyond the realms of possibility.
The Starma just sticks it out.
You know, the Labour, what was it?
Somewhere like an 11% approval rating, 13% approval rating.
That's 13% of people who think they're good, and everyone else is either don't know or doesn't like them.
And around literally three-quarters of people are on the don't like them thing.
So it's one of those things where, like, who knows how it goes, but it could very easily go that there is a kind of cascading effect.
Labour basically implode and an election is called, and that's the end of the Labour Party.
I don't think they're ever going to form a government again, to be honest.
They'd have to have an incredibly charismatic man come up from nowhere.
And I just can't imagine who that would be.
I don't see why Zach Polanski would cede the ground anymore.
Like, the Greens are doing well.
Zach Polanski is an effective campaigner in his constituency.
I don't think he's winning over new people, but he's winning over the people that he wants to win over.
And I think that'll probably top out about a third of the electorate.
And that'll be it.
That'll just be the hopefully just a nice cul-de-sac for the left.
Yeah, where's Streeting to the Rescue?
I don't know what they're thinking.
I don't think they've got any more Tony Blairs left in them.
You know what I mean?
And so, yeah, it's, Like I said, I'm mildly optimistic that we can end next year with Farage's Prime Minister.
I don't think it's beyond the realms of possibility, and I'm sure reform are going to be planning for this.
However, like I said, nothing is a done deal.
Nothing set in stone.
It's entirely possible that Stalma just slugs out just like a absolute fucking robot that he is and doesn't care.
You know, just absolutely brain.
I don't even know how to describe it.
Like, I just don't know how you can be impervious to the impending destruction of your own party, how the Labour MPs can stomach it, how the councillors can stomach it, and how Kier Starmer can just be like, right, okay, everyone in the country fucking hates me.
I guess I'm going to get up and start passing some legislation now.
Like, dude, you are, you're cooked, man.
Your legacy is going to be damnatio memoriae.
Like, we fucking hate you.
Everyone hates you.
You're banned from like every pub in the land.
Like, everyone fucking hates you.
Get out.
And yeah, happy new year.
You can probably hear the fireworks popping around outside.
So yeah, happy 2026, boys.
Like I said, I think it's going to be all right.
I think it's going to be all right.
I mean, like, on a personal level, things have been going really well.
You know, my kids are good.
My wife's good.
Business is good.
On, you know, for load season, load season, everyone at load season works so hard this year, man.
And they all, they all, you know, it's paid off.
Everything's going as well as can be expected, you know?
And we've got loads of stuff planned for 2026.
We are definitely going to get a big live event in 2026.
I want a few thousand seater place, like hall or whatever.
I want quite a large hall.
And basically, because the biggest event we've ever done is about four or five hundred people, but we've sold out every live event we've ever done.
I'm like, well, how many could we sell?
And nobody knows, right?
And so it's just like, well, why don't we just try and do a big one and see what happens?
Right.
Because I mean, if we can get like, you know, if we've got 4,000 people, that'd be an epic night, wouldn't it?
You know, obviously, we're putting a great show, but it'd be a fucking epic night.
I think everyone would have a banging time.
And it would be a really fun thing to do.
So we're definitely going to make a live event happen.
But we've got loads of other stuff.
Island of 5 is coming in the new year.
It's absolutely spectacular.
I love, I love the theme of the next islander.
I've written an amazing essay for it as well.
If I do say so myself, you know.
So I'll let you know when that's come out.
And we've got other things coming down the pipeline that I think you're all going to really like.
I like them.
And this is the thing, right?
Like, we don't do sponsorships because we're basically crap at sponsorships.
So it's like, okay, well, we've got, if, if, as a business, we can't sell other people's products.
We've got to sell our own products.
But our own products, we're all really proud of because we work really hard on these things.
And they come out really well, I think, anyway.
So it's one of those things where it's like, yeah, we can actually, with a great deal of confidence, speak on the things we actually produce.
So we thought, okay, well, what can we produce?
And I'm not going to spoil anything because I think you're going to be excited for it, actually.
I really do.
I don't think you're going to see it coming.
I think you really appreciate it.
Some of the things we've got coming.
So yeah, anyway, you know, like on a business level, on a personal level, everything's going really well.
And everyone I know is getting on.
The atmosphere in the office is just brilliant.
Everyone's just cracking on.
Like, I never have to be, I'm never angry with anyone because everyone's just on it, you know, and absolutely pounding.
And they can see the results, you know, they feel the results.
And they're benefiting from the results.
And so everyone's, you know, just churning through with such a great deal of enthusiasm.
And then we, you know, we get a week off of Christmas.
So hopefully on the new year, everyone's like bright-eyed, bushy-tailed.
I am going to be going back to work thinking, oh, thank God, I don't have to watch my children, discipline them, and keep them out of things.
For me, going back to work is relaxing.
Looking forward to that.
EU flag on the London Eye.
Oh, fuck off, Khan.
Prick.
Of course there is.
Yeah, Bo's breakfast segments in the morning.
So Bo is going to do a show between 8 and 9 o'clock in the morning.
It's just going to be like a talk radio style show where it's just pulling up the morning's headlines and just chatting about what's going on.
It's drive time.
So if you're on your way to work, on the train or in your car or whatever, you can just whack it on and just be briefed on what is going to be the newsworthy topics of the day.
So, okay, well, that's a great idea for a show.
I just don't get up that early.
I hate getting up early.
But Bo's one of those sort of people who is a natural early riser, so it should be a great show.
It should be a great, cool thing to put on.
The bird isn't here, actually.
The bird has gone home today.
My parents have gone home.
So it's nice and peaceful.
Although I've got to say, I'm kind of missing the bird.
Like, it loves just sitting on my shoulder.
And my mum came to pick it up earlier.
She took it out of the cage and it flew over to me and not my mum.
And normally my mum is the favorite of that bird.
And she wouldn't go back.
And my mum would put her hand over together.
And the bird would put its beak on my mum's finger gently and just pull her hand away to stop her from picking her up and bring her over, which was really sweet.
And like, the bird can be a pain in the rear.
So, you know, I was kind of like, oh, okay, that's very sweet.
So I'm actually rather missing the bird, frankly.
People like, get your own bird.
It's like, you know, I don't want to do that because these birds live for like 50 fucking years, you know, so and the bird's like, I know, 15, 20 years old now.
So I'm probably going to have to inherit the bird at some point.
So I'll just wait for it.
But yeah, so everything's going quite well.
You know, everyone's working really hard.
We're being good boys.
We're not getting into any controversies or troubles.
And so, yeah, like I'm personally optimistic.
And I'm sure that everyone around me is working as hard as they can as well.
I can see it.
Not just who works for me, but like all of the other guys in the sort of extended sphere of like the political right in Britain anyway.
I see everyone just working really hard and just, you know, being team players, basically.
Oh, that's great.
You know, like having a good, unified front is a good thing, which is why, you know, a bunch of like hardline Spergs on Twitter is just annoying.
It's like, no, guys, you're punching right.
You have to, you have to be focused on the actual enemy.
Like, no one on our side of these things is the enemy.
Trust me.
It doesn't matter if they agree with you or not.
The enemy is in Whitehall.
The enemy is in 10 Downing Street.
The enemy is in the media.
They are your enemy.
If you're wasting your time on us, then it's just wasted energy because we don't control anything.
You know, you can't change our minds.
Even if you did change our minds on something, what's it achieved?
Nothing.
Absolutely nothing.
So yeah, just focus.
Focus on what's going on.
I better get through some of these super chats because I see them piling up.
But what about you guys?
Are you guys optimistic for 2026?
Because weirdly, I am.
And the thing is, maybe I shouldn't be, right?
I completely believe that I shouldn't be optimistic, but I just can't, like, it's.
I just kind of got a feeling, man.
You know, I don't know how to describe it.
It's just that kind of feeling that, no, I think we will do fine.
I think everything will go okay.
I don't know how to describe it.
It's just a vibe, you know?
But for everyone who's super chat saying happy new year, I'm just going to collectively say thank you and happy new year to you too.
Hoping it goes really, really well for you.
Genuinely, I want everyone to succeed.
Everyone on our side anyway.
I want all those guys to lose.
So does Starma survive after the main elections?
Well, you know, it's hard to fucking know, right?
In any other party, the answer would be no.
God know.
I mean, but he wouldn't have got this far.
He wouldn't have got this far in being this bad.
So who knows, man?
Have you ever watched the sci-fi Babylon 5?
You know what?
I was never a fan of Babylon 5.
I always found it boring, but I only ever watched it when I was quite young.
So no, I can't say I've watched it, to be honest.
The American Right is in the position it's in because we formed a coalition with Rhino neocons instead of ending their careers.
Yeah, I said this the other day, Mobile Crusader.
The problem the Americans had is they didn't zero seats the Republicans.
We zero-seated the Conservatives, and so we are in a more commanding cultural position.
The Rhinos still have some cultural cachet.
They still exist.
And, you know, the Zionist lobby is still powerful in the Republican Party.
So this is a drawback of Trump winning so hard, frankly, is that the Rhinos didn't get yeeted, which is annoying, but it's something that you're going to have to think about next time.
Aaron sends me £100.
Thanks, Aaron.
And yeah, I'm glad he says, happy new year.
You and the lads at Load Cedars have helped me more than you know this year.
Here's to a new one.
Well, thanks very much, man.
I hope we can do as much of a service, if not more, next year.
Because, I mean, that's all we're trying to do.
You know, it's just genuinely trying to help people out.
For these frustrated internet anons, is there somewhere or someone you can direct them to?
They can make a difference there.
Otherwise, it's wasted energy.
A volunteer org or something.
I mean, there are going to be loads of things.
Like, I mean, Restore Britain is a great place to volunteer and actually be someone useful.
I don't know what they need you to do or anything like that, but inquire around.
There's no point just blueballing yourself, gnawing at the floor, being frustrated about people's not saying exactly what you want them to say on Twitter.
There's just no point in doing this, especially when you're attacking people who basically fundamentally agree with you.
Just not on the degree to which they're willing to go.
Like, just I would just not waste my time, you know, complaining about Lawrence Fox or Tommy or me or whoever, right?
It's guys, there are real enemies out there.
I would go find them first.
But do something locally, right?
You know, weirdly, you know what the best thing to do is join the local parish council.
Like, they are always thirsty for young blood, right?
Someone who looks like they're going to go there and actually do things that they're supposed to do.
And then you're in control of something.
Then you actually have influence over something.
Then you actually get to direct things.
It's not a huge thing.
Don't get me wrong.
And it's not paid.
But you get to do something.
And that's actually productive, right?
We need our guys in command of everything at every level.
Get on your local council, get on your parish council, do whatever you can do locally.
So whenever the time comes, it's you that's the guy who's making the decisions and not some fucking communist.
You know, just unironically, I really mean that.
You know, really mean that.
Edward says, I am here just painting some garden, hoping to see the parrot and Carlos PM, and here to see another 10 years of our Lord and Saviour.
Well, thank you.
I'm not going to be the Prime Minister, obviously.
I've been painting a Let me see if I can get it in focus.
The Lord of Change.
How was that?
He's in that right.
He's coming along okay.
Trying to make it look like he's glowing inside.
He's not quite done yet, but I'm not happy with the green on the wings, frankly.
But, I mean, he's alright.
could be worse anyway that's what i've been i've been paying him for months now though so you know um he He should be done relatively quickly, though.
Relatively soon.
Hopefully your countrymen have the fortitude to elect the proper candidates and hold them to doing what is demanded of them.
Just don't have high expectations.
No, it's not 3 printed.
It's just bought from Games Workshop because I'm lazy.
I do like Advanced UK, but until these things start actually registering opinion polls, there's just no point worrying about them.
I'm sorry.
It's just one of those things.
It's just the nature of the beast.
But don't expect much from reform.
I hope they win and I hope they become incredibly based, but I'm not terribly optimistic.
Here in the States, I'm actually going to get some money back when I do my taxes, says Empty Veins.
The tax deductions on overtime pay is going to be nice.
Well, good for you.
Paddy says, what do you feel about the new Swindling bus station?
To be honest with you, Paddy, it's alright.
it's actually not bad looking and it's not like it's it's it's not actually cluttering the pace up it actually seems For the first time ever, Swindon Council have actually done something well.
It took them like three years to get it done.
But it's all right.
Hello there says, should I, young Englishman, return to England?
The answer is yes.
But you might, it might not be economically viable, just saying.
But you should return, even if we have to suffer it out, frankly.
You know, like I said, I've always said I'm not going to leave.
So, you know, things could get bad, but I'm not going anywhere.
Pretty sad when the optimistic view is the mayor elections hopefully won't be cancelled.
Yeah, good point, video enjoyer.
That's another thing.
Starmer and the Conservatives, Liberal and the Conservatives, are both desperate to delay, they say, the elections because they are worried that they're going to get fucking canned.
Now, they do it under the auspices as well.
I mean, we're trying to rearrange local councils to further centralize them.
And this will just make things more complicated and confusing.
And even the Electoral Commission is just like, no, what are you talking about?
That's mad.
You should have the elections.
So I guess we'll see whether we'll get the elections or not.
But yeah, no, no, but the optimistic view, I think, is that things will go so terribly badly for Starma.
I think there will be some elections at least, and they'll be very bad.
And there'll just be a bellwether of things to come.
Just a warning, just a prophecy.
It's like, look, every time there's an election, Labour lose it.
That's just basically what it comes down to.
Labour just lose elections at this point.
Everyone fucking hates them.
Even the Conservatives have won one or two of these council elections.
It's probably a handful more than that.
But like, you know, they still win a couple, but it's reform and the Lib Dems that are really eating them up.
The Greens actually aren't doing that great either in the local council elections.
So, so yeah, that's, I think, I'm mildly optimistic.
Just to be clear, this isn't a prediction.
This is just what it looks like will happen if, I mean, things could go completely differently to what I'm saying.
And if they do, what are you going to do?
We're in a really weird, kind of alien position in British politics at the moment where you don't really see, I don't think, you know, at least not in the last hundred years, we've seen a proper collapse of the center like this.
And so I don't know what's going to happen.
And neither does anyone else.
And if someone tells you they do know, they don't know they're lying.
Bob from Speaker's Corner is inviting non-Sivnats on stream tonight to debate him.
You should do it.
I would.
If I'd known about that earlier, I'd happily talk to him.
In fact, would I even happily?
Like, I've been seeing his tweets come up, and I'm just like, these are the stupidest tweets I've ever heard in my life.
Not happy with them, really.
The thing is, I'm not saying this Bob Guy is a bad guy.
I'm sure he's a good guy.
It's just he's got a monomaniacal focus on Christianity when it's not necessarily the appropriate thing to focus on.
We are actually dealing in the realms of ethnicity these days.
And if you're not prepared to talk in those terms, you're not really having the conversation that everyone else is having.
So what's the point?
AZ says, saw you pogo stick down Swindon Main Street.
I know you didn't.
It does have a Main Street, but I didn't go down there.
I was just outside my house.
So me and my son didn't go on the pogo stick today.
We've really got to go on it tomorrow.
It was fun.
My son got a pogo stick for Christmas.
And so we were just messing around on it.
It's tiring.
It's a lot more tiring than you'd expect to do any kind of amount of pogo sticking, pogoing.
Graham says, your video on simulation and simulacra reminded me of a magic system I made.
Magic as narrative ontological debt.
Hmm.
That's an interesting idea.
Melissa says, five years of latest for me.
Thank you.
You guys changed my life for the better.
Happy New Year.
Well, thank you very much.
Much appreciated.
The burnt cookie says, our boss has quit simultaneously today.
No warning.
Just to delay us getting fired for a time.
Happy New Year, love from Texas.
Oh, you're a paramedic.
Right, right.
Okay.
Well, I mean, that's kind of them, I guess, if they quit to delay you from getting fired.
Ahmed says, I feel you on taxes, especially when I have to fight for the VA for compensation for my injuries during my 13 years of service.
To watch 9 billion go to fraud to Somalians and Nerves.
I know, I know, I know.
It's just.
And watching the Somalis try to defend themselves on this is just comical.
Like something out of the office.
I did a video on it the other day.
It's like something out of the office.
It's like, this is the least convincing defense of yourself I've ever seen.
Are we going to win the last Tom?
I know the end of it will be proven correct, but I don't know if that'll be in the form of an actual win or even in my lifetime.
Will Farage actually fix it?
No, I don't think Farage is going to fix anything.
I mean, I think if everything goes in the optimistic way, he'll have the opportunity.
I just don't think he will.
which will be very disappointing.
You know, best case scenario is that Nige wins 400 seats and then just says, David Starkey, what do we need to do?
And David Starkey just gives him a list of things and says, look, nuke all of these on day one.
And Nige just goes in there and goes, right, lads, we're nuking all these things on day one.
And that would be fucking incredible.
Going back to literally like the British Nationality Act.
You know, I think that's been repealed or superseded anyway, but you know what I mean?
Just symbolically, if not practically, just destroy everything that happened in the 20th century.
Just none of it was good.
Yeah, I've lost a lot of faith in the system too, Carson.
I just want to play my video games as well, but here we are.
We've got to be politically engaged.
You know, politics, you might not care about politics, but politics cares about you.
Let us hope whoever wins the next election ends OSA, drills the North Sea to lower the Lecky costs, and looks into building new nuclear power plants because green is a scam of fusion is more than 50 years away.
Oh, god, yeah, Tiger.
Gotcha.
I mean, obviously, then the thing is, right, this is actually something that Farage might well do, right?
Farage isn't on almost all of the substantive cultural and demographic issues.
He's going to be nothing, but he might drill for oil.
He might dig coal.
He might actually do things like this, right?
So that might be better.
You know, there are some things that he'll do, or I think he might do, that could help.
Easy says, I'm looking forward to Bo's breakfast segment of the new year because it actually airs when I'm having my coffee in the morning.
Well, I'm glad to hear that.
You're Amulatoin E Fedora.
You are Amulatoin Ephedora.
I don't know what that means.
Jack says, Hi, Carl.
Do you think Nick Fuentes could ever make an appearance on the Let's Easy?
Well, I mean, if he came to England, sure.
I'm not on YouTube, though.
He's banned from YouTube, isn't he?
Although, I mean, Piers Morgan had him on.
So, I don't know, man.
Like, people are like, oh, the era of Council Culture Service.
I don't know, man.
You know, I'm still nervous.
And I think he could return with a vengeance anytime.
And that'd be the only thing really keeping me from having him on.
I mean, I don't know.
It should be alright, right?
If he came to the UK, I'd have him on.
Generica says, Will you be doing your annual stream with Dave the Distributist?
Many Broken Hearts have not.
I'd love to.
Dave, if you are listening and you want to do a stream, send me a message.
More than happy to have a chat with you anytime.
Love Dave's streams.
Easy says, I'm an American.
My day starts around 4:35 a.m., so more local morning drive time shows are not as mentally nourishing.
Well, hopefully, ours is.
It should be fun.
It should be a good one.
So let me just refresh this.
In the hospitality industry, we call New Year's Eve amateur hours.
Stay sharp out there.
Run an Optimus for PM, loaded up with writings and speeches from EP.
I don't know what that means.
I've just been sent the UN Solution to Aging Population Migration PDF document.
Have you seen it?
Yes, I've seen it.
I've read it as well.
It actually says that replacement migration would not actually be advisable.
It's not that the document does say it will work, but it'll say it will cause massive cultural problems.
So it does say that this is not necessarily advisable.
So if you actually read it, it is the justification that they use.
But the thing itself is actually not terribly glowing about replacement migration because of cultural differences.
But it doesn't matter.
They'll do it anyway.
Thank you, Caretaker Studios.
I had extreme left-wing values until I discovered you.
i'm glad to hear that uh liam says unfortunately happy new year Unfortunately, it's too dark.
Here, I need to finish assembling my chaos knights, the small ones.
Well, have fun.
Generica says, it sounds like we need to commission a localist alliance, like Great Yarmouth First, but for everywhere.
People move to a center of gravity.
Yeah, you know, I've been speaking to Rupert Lowe about this, and I think there's something in this.
The idea of literally just this constituency first is in my priority, is this constituency?
Because it worked in Great Yarmouth, you know, 44% of people immediately were like, oh, yeah, I'm voting for Great Yarmouth First in the next election.
And I guess we'll see in the May elections, assuming we have May elections, how Great Yarmouth First does in Great Yarmouth.
And if they do very well, which the polling suggests that they will do, then that could be an excellent model.
Say, well, no, we want just our town first to be the thing that our politicians are concerned about, right?
Like, I would love to see the end of national parties and have regional alliances built up of independent local parties in each area.
I mean, that sounds like a fucking dream.
You know, it's going to be messy.
It's going to be difficult getting anything done, but it's better than what we've got now.
And it's going to be way more nativist.
Like, the woke will be severely depleted.
It'll be Brighton, Bristol, and a couple of inner-city areas.
Like, it's, it's woke is going to be such a minor thing, you know, the sort of all the globalist sort of types will be such a minor thing.
Thank you for wishing me good fortune in the wars to come, Damien.
I would like that.
Steel Manning says, when someone asks you to define culture, tell them that culture is what you do without thinking about it.
If you put beans on toast and work out, that's a different culture from harvesting your rice and hiding from hunters.
Yeah, well, that's correct.
I mean, to be honest with you, even if you think about it, it's just anything that you do and the character of what you do is your culture.
Ed Sell says, King Charles secretly converted to Islam post-Diana betrayal, her judgment shattering his Western monarchy faith and sparking theological resentment for divine rule.
He wants Islam to rule the land.
Maybe.
I mean, this is a conspiracy theory that I mean, he just seems to fucking love Islam, doesn't he?
Just fucking loves Islam.
Like, it's so weird.
Like, in every even when it's not appropriate to bring it up, like the Christmas message, he's like, yeah, I fucking love Islam.
It's like, thanks, Charles.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Good to know.
Is there anything about Jesus in Christmas?
Anything about Christianity?
No, it's Islam.
Right, gotcha.
Love me, Islam.
So, it definitely is a possibility.
But it's a conspiracy theory has been around for decades as well, by the way.
I think it's theorized in the 90s he converted to Islam.
It was said with the death of Dinos.
It would be in the 90s.
So, I mean, who knows, man?
Who fucking knows?
It might well be.
Pleiadians or reptilians?
The Pleians, the Nordics, because probably them other than reptilians.
like reptilians are cold and reptilian and alien don't don't really want everyone from reptilians The Pleiadians or whatever they're called.
I think those.
Let me Google this.
Yeah, they're the tall Nordics.
Yeah, definitely them.
Because they look like humans and the reptilians don't.
Happy New Year from the 15 Tesco night shifters running the new year with some good old hardcraft lads.
Well, happy new year to you.
Happy New Year to you two.
Worried about Nigel pulling a Boris.
Cheers from the States.
Honestly, just to be clear, it's entirely possible that he does.
It is 100% possible that Nigel stabs us in the fucking back.
Just to be clear, I don't want anyone saying, you said he'd be based.
You said he'd do this.
You said, no, Optimistically, it would be nice if he did X, Y, and Z.
However, I'm pretty sure I've been clear about this.
Don't expect much from Nigel.
He might do some of the North Sea oil drilling, coal mining, whatever.
He might do that.
But he's not going to be any good on the genuinely important stuff, I think.
And I doubt the Great Repeal Bill is coming.
I doubt any of that is actually going to happen.
And it's entirely possible.
He just goes the other way and tells us that actually diversity is our fucking strength.
And to suck it up because we're all racists.
Yeah, it's entirely possible he does that.
So just saying, if he does do that, I'm not saying he would never do that.
Just to be perfectly clear.
Unjavan says, can't wait for the Swindon Council elections in 2026.
Labour have run into the ground.
And Will Stern is a terrible MP.
Well, yeah.
I mean, it's in Swindon North and South.
You've got Labour MPs now and their shit.
And yes, the council elections will not be good for Labour, but they're not going to be good for Labour anywhere.
So we're not too much of an outlier on that.
Jones says, here's to a thousand years of Lotus Cedars and Carl the Righteous, Emperor of the New British Solar Imperium.
I don't think it's going to happen, but, you know, about 50 years would be good enough.
The safest space says, happy New Year from Australia.
Well, thank you.
From one authoritarian nightmare to another.
Yeah.
Oh, God, sore throat.
My parents came down and visited.
I got over that cough.
Then bam.
And what's really annoying is I'm taking that Vitmin D tablet every fucking day.
I haven't missed a day.
I mean, like, no, I agree.
You don't get enough Vitmin D during the winter.
And apparently it wasn't some sort of paris.
God's fucking late.
Panacea.
I had a long day, man.
It's been long fucking days.
I can see every day I get back and my wife's exhausted.
And honestly, after spending the days with the kids, I can see why I don't love my kids more than anything.
But they're really excited to just trash everything all the time.
And it is tiring.
But they are also adorable.
And my three-year-old keeps just coming up to me and just, you know, saying, Daddy, I'm happy.
I'm like, that's great, sweetheart.
I'm so glad that you are.
I need an app.
But they're both getting on great.
They're all getting on great.
Ganson Jack says, we're finally at the bottom of the, we are at the bottom of the pit, but the stairs back up are finally in sight.
Hmm.
I'm not sure I'm that optimistic.
I just think we've stopped sinking, right?
I think this is about as bad as it's going to get.
I mean, Kirstama, notwithstanding, he's going to make things worse.
But like, it's predictable, right?
It's not.
It's not something that we're going to be like, my God, I can't believe these people are ruining us.
Although, like, Farage might backstab us.
He might backstab us.
Like, we've got to keep this in mind.
Are you a fan of Andrew Wilson?
I can't say I've ever seen anything with Andrew Wilson.
I'm not really familiar.
Happy New Year from Candid.
Well, thank you very much.
But yeah, just something.
Like, I don't want people saying, you didn't want us about this.
It may well be, but Farage just fucking backstabs us.
But on the plus side, it justifies us going a lot further.
Aaron for £50, thanks, man.
Says, I was thinking about environmentalism.
I've come to the conclusion we use the old song wrong.
It's no longer reduce, reuse, recycle.
Now it's recycle, reprimand, repeat.
Is it true that recycling basically doesn't make a difference?
Like, I recycle because everyone has to recycle.
And so, you know, is it true that that does nothing?
Marksman says zinc does a lot for the immune system.
Okay, let me go on Amazon, order some fucking zinc.
I'm going to do that while I remember.
What about zinc and magnesium?
Do I need magnesium jet?
It'll look the same, right?
All right, put that in the basket.
I'll look into it later.
Uh, Graham Moore on Liz Ceter's Wen.
I don't, I don't agree with Graham Moore's thesis at all.
I just don't think there was an ancient advanced civilization.
I don't think there's any evidence for it either.
Um, loved Islander 3 earlier this year, Island of 5 soon.
Yeah, Island of 5 coming in January.
It's going to be amazing.
I have heard of Carlin Borisenko.
She's the best journalist covering the far left today.
Goes undercover with Antifa.
Would love to see you two chat.
I don't think she's a fan of mine, to be honest.
We had some sort of beef, apparently.
And so I think she doesn't like me.
I don't know why.
I don't really know anything about her.
So, like, the chat's died on my computer, which is wonderful.
Thank you, YouTube.
If only.
Oh, my God.
Okay, YouTube's dying in the background.
For the death penalty debate, let's do judge and jury with another judge review.
And the jury's fates are tied to those cases.
Well, I just don't think it will happen, but I mean, I would like it to.
Did I watch Jimmy Carr on trigonometry?
No, but I saw some of the clips.
I feel that he's lifting a bunch of our talking points.
Like, I saw him saying stuff.
I was like, that's what we say.
So I mean, maybe watches the show.
Happy New Year, says Joe.
Glad to catch you.
Lives Adri from New England, Colorado, over a couple of dates.
History Strong 2026.
Yeah, I'm honestly, I just feel that 2026 is going to be a good year for us.
And I felt that 2025 was quite a good year for us as well.
You know, things could be better, obviously.
But I'm just optimistic.
I think that we can do this.
I think if we just hold the line, keep doing as we're doing, then everything should go fairly well.
What's very annoying is that YouTube has just died on its ass on the back end.
I can't see anything that you're saying.
So I hope what you're saying is very polite.
let me see if i can somehow get back into it there we go Unearned optimism.
Yeah, I know.
But the thing is, I just am.
Like, I just feel that we're going to do well.
And I just, I just think we just keep narrative, discipline, just making sure that we're on point and don't spur gout unnecessarily, then we will do well.
I think I don't see how we can fail, frankly.
I think that the British public overwhelmingly agree with us.
And they think I did a video yesterday on my CAD daily channel where they're like, The public is becoming basically more racist because they're like, oh, well, it used to be that, you know, one in five people thought that to be British, you had to have British ancestry.
And now it's one in three.
And it's like, okay.
And the article in the Guardian was like, this is because of online right-wing narratives.
It's like, I'll take that.
Like, I agree with you.
I agree that that's the case.
We, the online right, and not just me personally, but just everyone on the right who's advancing our arguments has swung the public in 15 percentage points in just two years.
And we're going to keep going.
We're going to keep going.
And soon it'll be 50% of people who think like us.
And then it'll be 60, 70%.
And that's just on the who is British question, which is always a bit a bit of a wet one for most people because they're like, well, I don't want to be mean to my neighbor.
It's like, yeah, okay.
But the reality of the question is there is an objectively correct answer.
And more and more people are getting to that objectively correct answer.
Whereas, you know, the sort of like the luxury answer, which was, oh, you know, anyone could be British.
I'm not mean or racist or anything.
Yeah, that is for when we're doing really well, right?
That's when we've got a demographically stable and homogenous society, but money in our pockets and everyone feels safe and feels that there's a good future ahead of us.
That's the luxury belief for them.
We don't really have it now.
You know, I think things are different.
No matter how Farage does, they will nitpick him and everything and try to discourage and divide his base.
Yeah, I mean, I think, honestly, as long as Farage isn't actively backstabbing us, I'm probably going to support him.
You know, like it's not that I think he's going to be great or he's going to be a hard right guy or anything like that.
But as long as he's not actively backstabbing us and he is doing the best that he can or can be reasonably expected of him, I'll support him.
Don't worry, Sargon.
Americans, us Americans will launch a new Spanish-style medieval campaign if you do get backstabbed.
I mean, I don't want foreign intervention, just to be clear.
But there are worse promises than that.
Best description I heard.
I don't know if we can stop the ship from sinking, but it's sinking slow enough that I've had time to practice swimming.
Yeah.
Can we dream of a Farage type ice unit over here?
No.
There's just no way.
No way.
Oh, Galactic Doff, if you want to contact Lotus Eaters, contact at lotuseaters.com.
Do not use the Gmail one, obviously.
But yeah, so just, I don't know, man.
Like I said, overall, I'm mildly optimistic.
And I think 2025 was not a bad year at all.
You know, I'm glad Trump won.
I'm glad Trump has at least done some things.
Closing the border, you know, he's done a lot of things that aren't good, like the Epstein file stuff is not good.
But closing the border is good.
I mean, literally, he's got to the point where he just seems to go, why do we have Somalis in our country?
It's like, that's a great question, Donald.
Great question.
So who knows what he might do about that?
But I'm glad Trump won.
He's done okay.
Not great.
But he's done alright.
But there's something, something kind of acceleration-y about it as well.
I kind of want Stalma to be rubbed in everyone's faces.
You know, I want Starma is such a creature of the regime.
He just embodies the managerial regime.
It's like, you know, no, this is what they've always wanted, right, with Starma.
Fuck your opinions.
Fuck your objections.
They don't care.
They want Starma and what he does.
And Starma just represents everything that they are.
And it's been so sufficiently rubbed in people's faces, right?
Everyone just fucking hates him.
They just hate him.
They hate them.
And it's like, okay, good, good.
Let's just clear it out.
Let's fresh, fresh slate.
Let's have something new for the new year and for the rest of the century.
Just something different is all I want at this point.
I have to admit, there was a pretty convincing replacement parrot the other day.
Please don't eat this one.
Well, I mean, you know, anyone can be delusion is an infection from my countryman.
I'm born and raised in Chicago and moved here when I was 46, been here 10 years, still consider myself a guest.
Yeah, well, that's the thing.
It is.
It's an American import.
And they need it to kind of hold together the multicultural dream.
And without it, the whole thing sinks.
Big Boyce for $99.
Thanks, man.
Says, hi, I'm an American who's been watching you since I was 15 years old in 2015.
I was watching Tim Boolman, started watching Nick Frantez a little before the Iran War.
You've been a big influence on how I think, and I'd like to thank you.
Have a good new year.
Well, thank you very much.
Hope you have a great new year as well.
And thanks for the donation, man.
Thanks for sticking around.
Like, this is why we do what we do, right?
Because it's so obvious that the world is stacked against young men and they want you to just fucking die.
You know, they just want you dead or to be slaves.
Just be a low-paid plantation serf so we can just extract wealth from you and pay foreigners and our other client groups.
And I'm like, man, that is fucking rough deal.
That is fucking rough.
And so I'm entirely sympathetic to the plight of young men in society.
My sons are going to have this exact problem unless we get it fixed.
I mean, I'll probably be able to help them as much as possible, but like other people's sons are not in my position.
So, you know, very, very sympathetic to all this.
These are our lands.
We should help them.
I hate to say this, guys, but I'm fucking shattered.
I can feel myself totally flagging.
I did have Starma and Farage's New Year's videos that we were going to watch.
Well, I just don't think I'll go in me.
I'm an old man.
It's nearly one o'clock in the morning.
I need to go to bed.
Look at the bags under my eyes.
Don't I look tired?
I feel fucking tired.
Anyway, right, so we'll pick up tomorrow and we'll, or maybe I'll cover it on the we're back in the office on Friday, weirdly.
I'm not the one who sets the dates, I think.
I didn't get banned from Australia.
They just refused to approve my visa.
So it wasn't an official ban.
It's like, yeah, just go away.
But I'll probably do these on Friday.
So we'll do a sort of like, you know, what does the new year look like for the political parties?
So, no, my kids are not left wing.
So anyway, thank you for joining me, folks.
Thank you for your generous donations.
Thank you for hanging out and having your new year with me.
And I hope you have a great new year.
I'm sure that everything's going to go well.
I can just feel it in my water.
You know?
But I think we're going to do good.
I do think we're going to do good.
So be optimistic.
Have a very good evening.
