=== Patreon Perks Revealed (02:19) ===

[00:00:00]  Hello, James Dellingpole here with The DellingPod.
[00:00:03]  I've got some good news and some bad news this week.
[00:00:06]  The good news is my podcast guest is brilliant, Aidan Hartley.
[00:00:10]  The bad news is the sound's a bit shit and it's not really my fault, it's Aidan's fault.
[00:00:16]  Anyway, you're going to love it.
[00:00:17]  You're going to get early access to it if you sponsor my Patreon.
[00:00:23]  It's going really well.
[00:00:24]  I'm really pleased.
[00:00:25]  All sorts of exciting things you can get on Patreon now.
[00:00:28]  The entry level funding, you get my Not My Spectator column, which I'm doing every week now, which is good.
[00:00:35]  And you get also to hear, for the next level up, you get to hear the podcast three days early.
[00:00:43]  And there are other tiers as well.
[00:00:46]  Not tiers as in weeping, but tiers as in levels, including one where you get to be some kind of god-emperor and you get all sorts of amazing access.
[00:00:55]  Anyway, go and have a look at my Patreon page, which is Patreon James Dellingpole, and I hope you're tempted to subscribe.
[00:01:02]  It's well worth it.
[00:01:04]  Nice community building up.
[00:01:05]  Thank you very much.
[00:01:06]  Bye-bye.
[00:01:07]  When I look at Sweden, and I speak to Swedish friends who are Somali immigrants to Sweden, and their community actually has taken a bigger hit than some of the others because there are lots of taxi drivers.
[00:01:22]  And they were being infected by Italians and people from other European countries who kept getting into the back of their cabs.
[00:01:31]  But they're all in favour of the Swedish moves, the strategy that has been pursued there.
[00:01:39]  I'm amazed by how much confidence they have in their government and the trust that they have placed in this chief epidemiologist, Tegnell.
[00:01:50]  And so they seem to be quite happy with that.

=== London's Straining Traffic (00:08) ===

[00:02:20]  And, you know, I think that everybody else is straining to get out there.
[00:02:26]  I mean, London is getting busier.
[00:02:27]  You see more traffic.
