Carl Benjamin critiques Britain's current political landscape, arguing that Labour, Conservatives, and Greens prioritize foreign interests over native sovereignty while ignoring mass immigration. He condemns the ECHR and specific media figures like Ash Sarkar for undermining British identity, championing the "Restore Britain" movement which boasts 100,000 members. This initiative demands a politics centered on reversing migration, abolishing the state to minimize interaction, and ensuring foreigners pay their own way, asserting that any viable party must explicitly serve the native population regardless of minority alienation.

I can't get it out of my head that our politics has just got completely away from us in the past, say, 20 years.
You go back to the early 2000s, it felt like the country was still being run for us, even while the machinery of the Blairite state, the internationalist state, was being constructed.
It didn't feel like politics was something that wasn't with us in mind.
And yet now, all you see all day, every day is nonsense.
Just the second something happens to a foreign or minority group, it's all go.
My God, the sirens are blaring, everyone's on it.
As soon as something happens to an English girl or a Scottish girl or whatever, nobody cares.
This isn't something to panic over.
And I'm just so tired of this.
I'm just so tired of genuinely feeling and being a second-class citizen in my own country.
And so I've been thinking about this: okay, where do we go from this?
Like, what do we do?
Well, I genuinely think Rupert Lowe has it right here, where the attitude just has to be, I don't care, right?
I don't care about these minority issues.
And when we assert ourselves and say, no, we demand, we demand a politics in Britain that prioritizes the British people first.
And that's a profoundly reasonable thing to ask for.
And when they say, yeah, but what about, no, Stop right there.
What about those minority communities that have an alternative, that have a choice, didn't ask?
I don't, I'm not interested in having a discourse about what I have to sacrifice so minority communities feel comfortable.
I'm just not interested in that.
I'm not interested in forever being the secondary consideration in the politics of my own country, my ancestral land, where my ancestors have been here for thousands of years, as practically everyone in Britain has.
Like going back to Cheddar Man.
And I'm just sitting here like, but why can't we just admit British politics should be for British people first?
Because it's just not in any way at the moment.
If it's not for, openly for foreigners, and the Green Party currently polling somewhere between like second, third and fourth in the polls on an explicitly anti-Indigenous platform.
Their platform is basically, we're going to do everything for minority communities and communism, and we're just going to take everything from the Indigenous white working population that we can.
And it's just like, right, okay, that's mad.
That's such an insane evil.
And yet it's dressed up in this very fluffy language.
And Zach Polanski, whether you like him or not, and obviously I don't like him, is a good communicator.
But at the bottom of it always lies this black beating heart of resentment.
And you saw it when he was on question time with Zeyusf.
He just started hissing and spitting and calling them fascist.
Like actually, Zach Polanski's friendly, oh no, you don't, you're not wrong to be worried about these things.
That mask fell away and you saw the fangs of the serpent.
And so it's like, okay, I know that's under there.
And we saw in Gorton and Denton that the Muslim community will just 90 plus percent swing for that because they understand intrinsically.
And this isn't about like spousal vote, family voting, whatever the cope was that reform using.
This isn't that they're being forced into voting for this.
That they vote for it because they understand that it is for them.
It is going to prioritize them above anyone else.
And so, naturally, they're like, okay, well, that's what we're going to vote for.
I mean, for all of reforms pandering to minority communities, what did it get them in Gorton and Denton?
Well, for anyone who doesn't know, it got them five, five whole percent of the minority vote.
Five percent.
What a waste of time.
Just a few hundred at best when they needed 5,000 to be able to win that.
And so it's very evident that that's not very useful.
And making yourself a party for nobody, as what reform is essentially doing, leaves us once again without a party that's even vaguely interested in actually serving our interests.
Because the problem that Nigel Farage and Reform have, and this is very much a boomer problem, is that they are here to serve and protect the institutions of the 20th century, those legacy institutions we inherited from the beginning of the 20th century.
Five Percent Minority Vote Waste00:09:03
They are disappointed that they don't work.
They are disappointed that they aren't functioning correctly and they want to uphold these institutions.
Well, this is the same attitude that gets us mass immigration for the sake of the economy.
And I'm just saying, okay, I would actually rather live in a decent, modest country than sacrifice the nation itself to the GDP.
I would rather us be poorer and happier, like my grandparents were, than live like this, even if we were wealthy, which, of course, spoiler alert, I don't know if you're living in Britain at the moment, you're not.
So obviously, that's not working.
And yet, here we are trying to desperately uphold this institutional framework.
It's like, well, I'm actually not committed to these institutions.
I'm actually committed to our well-being and prospering as people, as the nation, as the community that has inhabited these isles for the last 10,000 years, possibly more.
So since the recession of the ice sheet.
So I'm most concerned about that.
Whether this works for us.
And of course, you've got Labour who are only really interested in upholding the rule of international law and the regime of human rights.
That's why we are committed to the ECHR.
That's why the second someone breaks into our country, they are given a panoply of rights and lawyers and all done at the taxpayer expense.
And I'm just not for that.
I'm not for upholding the rights of foreigners.
I'm not against them having rights in their own countries and whatnot.
And when they're here, sure, I don't think we should mistreat them.
But I'm sorry, I'm not interested in this libtard fancy of universal human rights.
And therefore, anyone who comes here, oh, look, a family's just come over, mother's come over from Somalia.
Well, give her a council house, pay for her to live here at our expense.
Why?
Why is she here?
What good is that to us?
What possible use is that to us?
To the point where we now have millions of foreign dependents living in this country.
And how can you look at that and say, well, this was good for the British people?
No, this was good for the liberal fantasy of universal human rights and the end of history and the atomic man who relies upon nobody and relies upon only on the state, as Rousseau has it, literally maximally on the state, minimally on his fellow man.
I find that to be abhorrent, frankly, it's a horrible thing to be sacrificing the nation for to uphold, even if it's very temporarily, this beatific dream of human rights.
I can't stand it.
And then you have the Conservatives who don't stand for anything but themselves.
They just stand for themselves getting into power because that's just what they do.
They don't know anything else and they don't ever do anything with it when they have it.
And when they do do something, it's the Boris wave.
It's the stab in the back, repeatedly, the stab in the back.
Oh, Labour have made some executive moves.
We can't undo those because we are the Conservative Party and that would be against tradition or something.
I don't know.
But the point I'm making is I just hate that we, the British people, the English, the Welsh, the Scottish, the Northern Irish, are just not the priority of our own politics.
This is an untenable, unsustainable relationship that we have, a demented relationship that we have with our own governments, with our own parliament, with our own parties.
This is mental.
It is absolutely insane that this is the state of affairs in which we find ourselves.
And so I really don't find it very surprising that Restore Britain has sailed well past 100,000 members in the first month.
And this is really the main promise that Restore Britain are making is we are going to prioritise the British people first.
And anything else is secondary.
It is the British people and restoring the order of the country that the British people expect to see and think is morally just that is the mission of Restore Britain.
And I'm just like, yeah, definitely.
That is what I want.
I can't imagine wanting anything else out of politics.
Why would you want anything else if you're a British person?
All of the ideological nonsense can go.
All of the foreign pandering can go.
I don't want any of it.
If foreigners live here, fine.
But they have to live according to the way we want the country to be.
If they live here, they have to pay their own way.
If they live here, etc., etc., it has to be us that sets the direction of the ship.
And I'm just honestly, I'm incensed that it has got to this point.
Absolutely incensed about it.
And the thing is, you can feel it.
You can feel it in the air.
Well, not in the air even.
Subterraneally.
Like there's tectonic movements.
I was genuinely fascinated by the flagging campaign that's still going on, by the way.
There are still people putting up flags.
And I've seen communists trying to tear them down recently.
And I just no sympathy for them, but those people whatsoever.
But you saw it in the flagging campaign where this was a statement of ownership.
And they all started complaining, oh, the British flag, the English flag, they're making people feel unwelcome.
It's like, good.
That's good.
I'm glad you, for the first time in, I guess, the entire time you've been here, have realized this isn't just some undiscovered country, this empty aisle that you can come here and colonize to your heart's content.
No, there is a native and indigenous people living here, and we're not happy with what has been done to us.
And what the flagging campaign was, the reassertion of this dominion and the sovereignty that this people have over this land.
This is our home.
We collectively possess it.
And if we don't possess it, which at the moment is looking quite dodgy, isn't it?
It's a bit of an question, really.
And one could argue, honestly, we look like an occupied people.
We are being looted slowly but surely every single day for an ideological regime and foreign communities to profit from us.
And so no wonder people are like, yeah, no, you know, I feel the need to go purpose St. George's Cross.
I really feel that need.
It's like, yeah, I felt it too.
Good God, man.
Good God, I just hate what is happening in this country.
It's driving me mad.
It's genuinely like a pain whenever I see it every single day.
Oh, what are we talking about today?
Minority politics.
Okay, we should be talking about the fact that we're all being impoverished.
And all of the other terrible, terrible things that, you know, the obvious injustices that happen all day, every day.
Every day, there's a foreign rape every day.
I mean, it's just genuinely driving me mad.
I just, and I, I don't, I, I completely understand why there are people like, you know, I'm just going to move.
I'm just going to leave.
I, I just, I can't bring myself to do it.
I cannot bring myself to do it.
Like, I don't want to.
I don't want to.
And so I've been thinking a lot about the this, and I think that actually, although it's difficult to see, something, like I said, the tectonic plates are moving.
And I think it really is coming to the fore that we have arrived at a point where the collective sovereignty of the British people over their own island is going to be.
And Kier Starmer said this after the flagging campaign.
I think he's right.
It is going to be the question of the future.
So the battle for possession, which identity group possesses these lands and which ones will make the rules.
And whilst we are still in the majority, we have to make sure it's us.
We have to arrest immigration.
We just have to stop it and reverse it.
This is the only option we have if we want a future worth living in.
And I thought this all like this train of thought.
I got thinking about this because I was watching, believe it or not, Navarra Media with Ash Sarkar and Aaron Bastani talking about why the right is winning.
And they feel it.
They feel it.
They feel the tectonic plates shaking too.
And Ash Sarkar had the temerity, temerity, the absolute temerity to essentially try and step into the nativist frame after all of the years of browbeating us,
Time To Abolish The State00:08:35
trying to tear down Britain's reputation internally, its own self-image, to then say, and she does this horrific, vulgar caricature of a white working-class Englishman going, oh, I'm an Englishman, I love pint.
And it's just disgusting watching her wearing it as a skin suit, something she'd been cheering on the death of, until it became evident that actually, not only have they scarred us psychically with this, these attacks, but they couldn't overthrow us.
And so now that Gamanzilla has started to shake and rise, you can see the fear in them and they're desperate to say, well, okay, don't leave us on the outside, guys.
We're not enemies here.
It's like, no, no, no.
You are enemies.
And that's why this is happening.
This is happening because of the pain you inflicted on us and took glee in, just to be clear.
And the only reason you're now asking us for mercy is because you weren't prepared to indulge us with any mercy when you thought you had the whip hand.
And when suddenly your hand is grasped and you realize, oh, I don't have the strength for this.
Well, now you're on your knees saying, well, hang on a second.
I feel super English.
Please don't deport me.
I'm personally not feeling very inclined to be clement on this issue.
Open subversives who've actively tried to harm our country.
I'm not really feeling like they're a part of the us, the we when we talk about first person plurals.
I don't really include that person in any group I belong to.
And so when she's there putting on the skin suit, oh, I'm English me, it's disgusting.
I find it genuinely repulsive.
And it really offends me.
I don't know how else to describe it.
I find her grotesque.
Just hideous to look upon and listen to.
And there are going to be a swathe of these people.
She's desperately trying to lead the left, and her and Aaron as well.
trying to lead the left into a well actually Britain's okay, isn't it?
After all of the narratives, calling us evil, white supremacists, slavers, all of these horrific narratives designed to destroy our self-esteem, our self-confidence.
Now they're trying to move back onto the plantation.
Oh, no, we're with you guys.
No, you're not.
Why would we need people like you around?
Why would we need this kind of friend in our midst?
Why would we need that?
You were so cruel when you thought the winds were in your sails.
You were so cruel.
And I'm not going to forget this.
And I encourage other people not to forget this.
I don't think these people are with us.
I don't think these people are on our side.
And I think that these, you know, communist subversive just shouldn't be forgotten about.
They're going to play act, pretend they're going to wear the skin suit of your civilization in order to make sure that you don't single them out as the enemies that they are.
But don't forget it.
Anyway, I think this is all the reason for the rise of Restore.
And I tell you what, we have just had such an amazing response of late.
It's just been incredible.
Genuinely incredible.
Because we need something.
We need to have a politics that is for the native British people first.
And if we don't get that, God only knows what the future looks like.
And it's quite clear that it's not Farage.
It's quite clear that Nigel Farage, over and over and over, steps on the fucking rake of being like, oh, no, I'm not a nativist.
I'm for everyone as equally as Kier Starmer would say he's for everyone.
It's like, okay, well, why?
What good are you then?
What's the point of you?
Oh, I'm here to save the liberal order of the 20th century from itself.
Well, brilliant.
I'm actually not in favor of saving the liberal order of the 20th century.
It seems to have been hostile to the British nation.
And so I'm not in favor of saving that.
And sorry, if that makes me some sort of far-right radical, then it makes me some sort of far-right radical.
But the, in your eyes.
But the important thing is that actually our politics services our flourishing first.
And if there's one thing I think you can say with great certainty about Britain at the moment is that it's not flourishing.
And until this country is flourishing, I just don't want to hear about minoritarian concerns.
I don't really want to hear about abstract ideological concerns about human rights.
All that bollocks.
I'm not interested.
I'm just not interested.
While my taxes are this high, while food is this expensive, while there are so many foreigners on my fucking streets, I don't want to hear about it.
What I want to hear about is a party that's going to be like, yeah, no, we're going to basically abolish the state.
We're going to whittle this thing down until you wouldn't even know it existed.
Just like AJP Taylor's state from 1915, where the only interaction you have with it is at the post office.
While my streets are filled with foreigners, all I want to hear from a party is, oh yeah, trust me, millions of them go.
They're going back.
We are reversing mass immigration.
That's all I want to hear.
And if you don't say these things explicitly, clearly, forthrightly, and when criticized, say, I don't care.
This is for us and not you.
So, if you're upset by that, too bad, then I'm not voting for you.
It's that simple.
I will never vote for a party that is weak on any of these issues.
And that's not even including any of the substantive moral problems with the country, like abortion up until the point of birth, murderers, just being given like 25 years and get out in 12 or whatever.
Like, all of these demented things.
Peter File's not going to jail.
Like, all of these demented moral scars on our country.
I'm not even talking about those things.
I'm talking about the core structural issues.
All of those things can and will be fixed in time.
But it's the core failure to understand that the British people collectively have a homeland and it's currently being whittled away through foreign occupation, through deceit by governments, through the rendering of us as second-class citizens in our own land.
Unless these are the things you are talking about, full-throatedly, then I will never be voting for you.
Anyway, I just had to get this off my tracks because I'm just so tired of all of this.
I'm so tired of the discussions.
I'm tired of watching the political class skirting around the issue that is the British people are not represented in their own politics.
I'm just exhausted by it, and I've had enough of it.
Anyway, I guess I'll leave it there because I'll probably just carry on ranting and raving forever and getting more angry about it.
But we actually have a live event coming up if you'd like to come and see us.
It's going to be a lot more jolly than this video.
I'm not going to be angry at it, I swear.
I'll leave a link in the description.
It's going to be in Swindon and it's going to be the biggest one we've ever done, actually.
So, do come along to that.
And I'm going to have a lot more to say on this subject, but not the live event.
But just for now, just keep your heads down and just keep working.
We're organizing now.
We're actively organizing.
We are going to just actually go out and make a change collectively, all of us.
It's time.
It's time to just get off our asses and just do these things.
And so we are.
You know where to go.
I'll leave a link to Restore Britain in the description, obviously.
£20 a year.
Join it.
What have you got to lose?
It's £20 a year.
What's that?
Two pints?
If you're lucky these days?
Like, sorry, we've got to get involved.
We have to get involved.
There's just no other thing for us to do because if we don't, we've seen the price.
This is the current state of the country and what happens when we don't personally get involved.
And what we have to do is just shield ourselves in our hearts from any of the spears and arrows that they're going to throw us.
I don't care about your opinions on these things anymore.
