Music playing.
Music playing.
So, it's been kicking off in France with these protests where people are wearing these luminous
yellow jackets calling for an end to increases in fuel tax
from Macron who is the closest thing
to a dictator.
France has had for a while, and it's had a few, but this guy is something else.
Former employee of the Rothschilds, of course.
And people have been protesting in numbers all over France, blocking roads and what have you.
And of course, like all ways with these things, the protests start out peacefully, which is all they need to be.
You don't have to be violent.
In fact, it's counterproductive.
What you need is non-cooperation.
You don't have to be violent to stop something functioning.
Stuff to be enough obvious for a start.
But anyway, this stuff had been going on all over France.
The government has had to respond to it, even though Mr.
Arrogant Macron showed no desire to do that until it built up and it built up and built up.
So now we have this story.
France introduces six-month moratorium on fuel tax increases.
French Prime Minister Edouard Philippe has...
He's not French, is he? Has announced a six-month suspension of the fuel tax hike, which triggered massive unrest across the country, saying the measure is aimed at stopping the violence and restoring public order.
Well, yeah, okay.
But what he's really saying is we can't cope and we have no power When the public, in large enough numbers, say we're not having it.
And like I say, there's absolutely no need to be violent.
And what happens, as I was going to say a few minutes ago, with these events is they start out peacefully and then they're infiltrated by agent provocateurs who start the violence to try to discredit the peaceful protesters.
You have other people who just want to be violent, just what they are, who join And do what they only know, which is be violent.
And that to a large extent often discredits the peaceful protesters, which are the vast majority.
But what's been interesting in France, and I'll tell you, this is happening around the world, wherever I go.
Even on where I live, the Isle of Wight, it's starting to happen on local issues now.
People are sick of it.
They're sick of being dictated to by these self-appointed dictators.
Because they are overwhelmingly self-appointed.
I mean, the government's supposed to be elected.
But if you look at the French situation here, Macron was in the government of Hollande, Francois Hollande.
And Hollande got the lowest opinion rating of any French president in history at one point.
And so being connected to Hollande and his party would have been real bad news for Macron.
So what he'd do? Starts a whole new party.
Starts a whole new party and fills it with candidates.
Now, Macron's not done that.
Someone with vast organization and enormous amounts of money has done that.
So they bring this Macron up with this new party and then the person who's got a very good chance of winning, he gets targeted by some scandal and all the media are onto that and he steps down, doesn't go on.
And then you have Marine Le Pen of the populist party, as they call them now.
And she's targeted endlessly, 24-7 by the media and the system in general to demonize her.
And Macron wins.
Now, you can say that that was the public voting for Macron, but you look at the background, it wasn't a straight, fair election.
And people are sick of having these people imposed upon them who then dictate what happens and doesn't happen.
So what I found interesting was even though this election Yellow jacket protest all over France turned into violence.
The opinion polls were saying, well, we don't like the violence, but we absolutely agree with what they're protesting against.
And what happens in the end, something I've been trying to get across decade after decade.
If enough people Will not cooperate with their own enslavement and the imposition of more and more pressure, financial pressure, not least on their lives like with this.
Then they can't do it.
There's not enough of them.
And this is another example and what they've had to do is put a moratorium On the fuel tax.
For six months.
And you know. I was involved in something years ago.
During the days of Margaret Thatcher.
She introduced something called the poll tax.
Which was a deeply unfair tax.
Where people with lots of money.
And people with next to no money.
Had to pay the same amount.
Ludicrous. And what it did.
Was bring together.
The middle class and the working class.
Who were both affected. And.
Enough people refused to pay the tax, filled the courts with people being prosecuted for not paying the tax, that the tax had to be replaced.
And, you know, if only this penny would drop, that is 7.5 billion people in the world, plus now.
And the number of people that are controlling the direction of their world and dictating their lives is a stunningly small number compared to them.
And if we stop cooperating with them and stop being divided and ruled between ourselves, then these power cartels cannot function.
Why does anyone think that divide and rule is a constant, constant recurring theme?
