	Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters for the 18th of June 2021.
	I'm joined by Carl, and today we're going to be talking about the Portland Police, the riot police, deciding to all resign.
	I'm sure that's going to go well.
	I suppose if you've been through hell, though, it's probably enough.
	Also, leftists proposing a progressive alliance in which they're just admitting what we've all been saying for the longest time, which is all the political parties in the UK, bar the Conservatives, are just the leftist party, although the Conservatives at times, let's be honest, But more importantly, they're losing.
	So they've decided to actually form together.
	Also, the establishment's reaction to GB News.
	Because that's funny, isn't it?
	I love how that...
	GB News has got some problems, sure.
	But to be honest, I'm glad it's there.
	I'm really glad it's there.
	Yeah, me too.
	I will get into it later, but the Rishi Sunak interview yesterday, I'm going to mention again now, which is just when he asked him about what's the cost of carbon neutral by 2050 or whatever the bloody target is, and he had to admit he has like £10,000 per household.
	God.
	Great.
	Fantastic.
	Never get that question anywhere else.
	Yeah.
	Anyway, so just want to mention a few things first.
	So the first thing I want to mention was, so this is in, which one are we having on first?
	Okay, here we go.
	So this is the first thing here.
	So our unbiased media, so this is your reaction to the cancellation of GB News in which they've been under attack from leftists trying to say that how dare you advertise on there.
	It's more about the standards that GB News are being held to that none of the rest of them even hold a pretense of holding.
	And you just can't say that the way that GB News is being treated is fair.
	It's totally unfair.
	And we'll talk about this in the third segment.
	It's obvious that it's about a certain kind of political class who hate class traitors.
	That's what it is.
	So the next thing we have here is Rory's summation of the COVID lab theory.
	So I didn't realize how deep it went until I've read quite a significant chunk of this whole thing.
	It just outlines the evidence for it, the cover-up, which is now...
	I think we can just say documented.
	I think we could say there was an active cover-up of this at this point.
	Well, Rory has done a really good job documenting this.
	But the evidence is overwhelming.
	Like, the letters he...
	What is it?
	Peter Daszak's The Lancer and all the rest of it.
	Like, it's all public now.
	So, yeah, there was an attempted cover-up.
	It's failed.
	And now people are actually investigating, did it come from the lab?
	And this is how it got unpersoned on Facebook, presumably.
	Yeah, and the scientists have said that the only reason they didn't want to do it is because it was associated with Trump.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Pathetic.
	You're not a scientist, though.
	Well, I'm sorry, that's just a pure embarrassment.
	You're definitely a political activist in some form.
	But yeah, Rory's done an amazing job with this.
	It's like 8,000 words, so it's quite a long read, but it's so detailed and so comprehensive.
	It's an incredibly valuable piece of reporting.
	Definitely check that out.
	Yeah, and a good source in case you need to find something.
	Anyway, so the next thing here is Hugo's summer-upper of the G7 results and what to expect from that.
	I think that's premium, so go sign up at love2seers.com to give that a read.
	This is really good because he's detailing how the managerial class that's ruling over us...
	In the G7 don't actually do much towards those people who expect things from them.
	And Hugo does a really good job of explaining the sort of power dynamics involved from, I suppose, the anarchist sensibilities.
	It's kind of a good way of looking at this through this lens because it just shows you just how detached the people at the G7 are from those people who are trying to get something from them and are going to get nothing.
	And then the last thing we have is just a new article from Ian Miles Chung about GP News being under attack, which we are going to get into.
	So without further ado, let's start off with the Portland Riot Police all resigning.
	Yeah, let's talk about Portland for a minute, because Portland's a very interesting place, a very progressive place.
	It used to be one of the most livable cities in the world until Ted Wheeler got in charge of it, because Ted Wheeler is sympathetic to the radical left, and this has been completely consistent throughout his entire career as the mayor of Portland.
	So we'll begin in 2017, where there had been persistent riots and incidents in Portland for years featuring radical left-wingers.
	And with the rise of Black Lives Matter, this all coalesced into quite a revolutionary-looking movement.
	And as you can see, here's just one example in 2017 of more rioting, fires burning, people being attacked on the streets, things like that.
	And Ted Wheeler was like, oh, this is atrocious, this is atrocious.
	But did very little about this, and seems to have constantly undermined the police at every turn.
	And in response to this, you had the Proud Boys, who decided that they would go and have their own rallies in Portland, since they're going to be overtly left-wing rallies being held there.
	Well, they should be able to hold their own right-wing rallies.
	And Ted Wheeler said no.
	He would refuse to grant them permits to have their rallies based on their views.
	And when someone said, well, hang on a second, they have First Amendment protections in the United States, assuming Portland is still a part of the United States, I mean, they have had their own exclusionary zones at some point.
	But Ted Wheeloo just came out and said, well, hate speech isn't covered by the First Amendment.
	Yeah, it is.
	That's exactly the point of the First Amendment, is that there is no such thing as hate speech.
	Hate speech is something you have post hoc concocted from your progressive values, and this is still something that is constitutionally protected in the United States.
	The Washington Post, thankfully, was just like, yeah, he's wrong, actually, legally wrong, because this has precedence and he's just not correct.
	This obviously is informed by his own political biases.
	And in 2017, again, still, Antifa weren't going to give him any credit for the amount of support he had given them over the years, and they started targeting his house.
	Which can't have been nice.
	Ted Wheeler tweeted out, Sands come home the second night in a row with protesters in my front yard flipping me, my wife and child off and now shouting threats.
	Photos and videos posted to social media show a handful of demonstrators outside of his home with messages like ACAB, which means all cops are bastards, and outlines of bodies and chalk littering the sidewalk in front of the mayor's precisely manicured lawn.
	As if the police in Portland are just gunning down black people in the street or something, right?
	The reason I was laughing is because it's just him being like, oh, how horrible for me to come home and have to deal with this.
	Yeah, what about everyone else?
	Exactly, what about everyone else?
	And then there was a famous incident in 2018 where Antifa were blocking traffic and acting as if they had taken over a section of the city and directing traffic and intimidating motorists and things like this.
	It was all quite awful.
	And Ted Wheeler basically allowed it to happen.
	He came under fire over a viral video showing these protesters blocking traffic and harassing drivers, but says he supports the decision by the police to watch from a distance without getting involved.
	I was appalled by what I saw on the video, but I support the police bureau's decision not to intervene.
	I support law enforcement not enforcing the law.
	Yes, that's exactly what he's saying.
	He doesn't like watching Antifa bullying and harassing people in the streets, threatening them, and if they weren't driving off, presumably they would have assaulted them.
	But he's not going to do anything about it, and he supports the police standing by, because this has been his attitude.
	You can see that.
	There's an unknown journalist.
	The video was posted by journalist Andy Ngo, showed protesters including members of Antifa and Black Lives Matter blocking the intersection.
	It's mad.
	Yeah, back in the day when Andy was not too famous and stigmatised.
	But anyway, so yeah, moving on.
	This is a constant theme throughout Ted Wheeler's tenure in Portland.
	In 2018, he ordered police officers to stand down, allowing protesters to menace ICE employees for six weeks, according to the agency's employees, who sent a cease and desist letter to the city on Monday.
	How mad is that?
	So obviously, again, the Abolish ICE protesters are harassing the Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers.
	And Ted Wheeler's like, yeah, well, the police aren't going to get involved in that.
	So the police aren't going to protect the citizens.
	They're not going to protect government institutions.
	What are they going to protect?
	What is the purpose of it?
	My house.
	Not even.
	They weren't there with the protesters there.
	Like, this is the thing.
	Ted Wheeler seems to have been, and he definitely is, a radical left-winger, and he supports the general theme of what's being promoted.
	Defund the police.
	But anyway, so in 2018, the Portland Council, he, in fact, proposed a method of increasing the power of police to control violent political brawls on the street, and the council themselves rejected this.
	And so that's a very interesting contradiction, isn't it?
	A man who constantly undermines the police and supports them when they don't deploy, obviously under his auspices.
	And yet, still, he is trying to accrue to himself more power.
	To use them, even though he doesn't.
	What's he going to use them for?
	He's going to take that power away from sensible people.
	Exactly.
	But anyway, obviously the Portland City Council, obviously very left-wing, and they were like, no, so that's useful.
	But in 2018, he was claiming, oh, I didn't hinder the police.
	He was obviously accused a lot by various institutions in Portland of being in the way of the police.
	And he said, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
	This is nonsense.
	You can't prove I did.
	But in 2019, 50 plus police resigned because of Ted Wheeler.
	And this is from the Gateway Pundit with, you know, using various sources inside the Portland Police Department.
	Just tell them about the people they know who have been resigning.
	Because he's constantly undercutting the police's authority.
	And it's because he is constantly associating with those people who say all cops are bastards, defund the police.
	The United States is a white supremacist project.
	And so in 2020, and now this happened before, but I couldn't find the clip.
	There was a clip in 2018 where he was at a Black Lives Matter protest, and he was trying to speak, surrounded by all these young protesters, and they were just booing and throwing things at him, and he had to basically hightail it out.
	But this happened again in 2020, when he was trying to address Black Lives Matter protesters amid the unrest in the city.
	He said, I stand with you, to jeers from the crowd.
	Like, Ted, you are the authority they are opposing.
	You can't join them.
	I don't have to tell you this.
	You know, it'd be like Jews for Nazi Germany.
	It'd be like, what are you talking about?
	Like, they're not going to accept you.
	He demanded the federal officers leave the city, although this was when Donald Trump, because of all the uprising that had been happening in Portland, Donald Trump and federal agents had been sent there to try and preserve something about the peace.
	Because the state had refused to send reinforcements, the feds had to send reinforcements, meaning it came from Trump.
	Yes.
	Trump was the only one defending this.
	Yes.
	Trump was the only person arguing for law and order in Portland.
	The way this was solved in the end, and they took the feds out for a bit, I don't know what the situation is now, is that, I think it was after he was unelected or something, then they sent in state forces?
	Yes.
	State officers went in?
	Exactly.
	As soon as they weren't Donald Trumps.
	But he, of course, was condemning them.
	We didn't want them.
	We didn't ask them.
	They're not trained for what they're being asked to do.
	We want them to leave.
	Because you want more violence and destruction in Portland.
	Because it's not like there hasn't been enough.
	But I'm just skimming over a lot of this because otherwise we'd be here all day.
	And so in 2020, his $840,000 condo was attacked and the building was set on fire.
	And so he was forced to move for the protection of other people.
	He said, it would be best for me and for everyone else's safety and peace for him to move from the building that the rioters had tried to torch on his 58th birthday.
	Why are you palling around with these people, Ted?
	In what world do you think you're going to be accepted by these people?
	You go to their protests, they hate you, they try to burn your building.
	In what way are you thinking, yeah, maybe all the cops are bastards, maybe black lives do matter, and maybe the Antifa are just anti-fascists?
	Anyway, by September 2020, after 100 days of a consistent straight 100 days of anti-fire riots, and even the Associated Press had gotten like, yeah, these were pretty violent.
	Portland had descended...
	They were bringing explosives and IEDs at one point.
	I know, I know.
	And they were attacking courthouses and things like this, literally burning down government buildings.
	I mean, this is just totally unacceptable.
	Why do I have to say that?
	On the face of it.
	And of course, the shooting of Daniel Aronson by Michael Reinhold.
	This was basically him admitting that this is terrible.
	There's no way of getting around it.
	You couldn't get rid of the fact that this was just everywhere.
	And eventually, next year, in fact, the beginning of January, Ted Wheeler got punched by an Antifa member in public.
	They saw him at a restaurant, a group of them gathered to harass him, and one of them got up to his face and then punched him in the face.
	Yeah, they punched a Nazi.
	Basically.
	No, if you endorse that statement, that's what's going to happen to you.
	The rioting continued, and it's getting out of control.
	And finally, Ted, in 2021, finally, Ted is saying, well, look, I'm going to push back harder against anarchists and anti-far radicals after another riot rocked the city on New Year's Eve, admitting the months-long effort to stem the violence had failed.
	After he got rid of Donald Trump.
	Yeah, of course.
	But this is the point.
	He has gestated this radical movement in his city.
	He's tried to ingratiate himself with it, because his politics obviously align in some way with theirs, and it's just his position that prevents him from joining them.
	And this is something he has done.
	This is something Ted Wheeler did to Portland.
	He allowed this to happen.
	And he undercuts the police at every turn, as we keep saying.
	The Democrats did this to the United States across the United States.
	So, I mean, that timeline there, think about it.
	Donald Trump gets in office 2016, and then Antifa blows up in Washington and then in Portland and whatnot, and then it goes on and goes on and goes on until Joe Biden gets in, and then all of a sudden it's got to be dealt with.
	Yes, that's exactly right.
	Because people knew what they were doing.
	Yeah, but in the particular case of Portland, Ted Wheeler knew what he was doing, and he completely supported this the whole way.
	So in March 2021, they're still burning US flags, storming courthouses and fighting with the police.
	Apparently they set fire to a federal courthouse in downtown Portland.
	Andy Ngo tweeted out, there are still people inside that, by the way.
	Good to know, I suppose.
	Not that Ted Wheeler cares or should have cared before.
	And in April, this is in March, and in April, he said, oh, we need to take the city back.
	From who?
	The idea, the myth that is out there.
	Yeah, this was reported by the Washington Post, but I don't have the link on screen, but it's okay.
	But basically, he said that he wanted the residents' help for putting an end to violent protests that have erupted in recent weeks and urged the public to stand together to take the city back.
	They want to burn, they want to bash, they want to intimidate, they want to assault, said Ted Wheeler on Friday.
	When was this not true?
	What year in the past four was that not the case?
	Why would you previously tell the police not to engage?
	Why would you previously try to go and hang out with these people and tell them what they're doing is correct and just?
	Why did you do this?
	And it's only when they're literally about to burn down your house after burning down loads of courthouses and beating loads of people and murdering people on your streets.
	You're like, yeah, maybe we need to take the streets back from this violent communist insurrection movement.
	Main terrorist.
	Yeah, actual terrorist.
	Sorry, it's a terrorist.
	Yeah, it is a terrorist.
	They kill people, they bomb buildings.
	I don't know what to say.
	They couldn't get much more like ISIS if they were trying.
	I mean, have you seen the footage of the ID they threw at the courthouse?
	Yeah.
	I don't know.
	What do you want?
	But I guess they wanted Donald Trump out.
	That's what they wanted.
	They tried to set fire to his home.
	I mean, what more?
	But anyway, so yes.
	Yesterday, he says, our job is to unmask them, arrest them, and prosecute them.
	And asking the public to contact the police and provide them with information about the rioters, write down their license plates and numbers, or film them when they commit acts of vandalism.
	Why did that have to take about six years for you to come to that position, though, Ted?
	Why?
	Why couldn't that have been done on day one?
	Because on day one, the rioting was wrong.
	What they were trying to do was totally immoral and breaking the law.
	So why not do it on day one?
	Why did it take six years and for you to be personally threatened?
	Because when it wasn't threatening you personally, you seemed to be on its side.
	But anyway, good luck with that because it turned out yesterday the entire Rapid Response Riot team decided to resign.
	Because screw you, that's why.
	You know, you want the...
	Oh, you've got to go stop the riots, stop the riots.
	What, the riots you encouraged with the police that you have been undermining?
	Why the hell should they?
	But anyway, so post-millennial Andy Ngo, I believe, reports that within the rapid response team within the Portland Police Department, which is a volunteer outfit, so these are people who have volunteered to be the front line against the communist terrorists, have all said no because of the indictment of Officer Corey Budworth for...
	He's alleged to have...
	Used excessive force when dealing with Antifa rioters, which sounds like a contradiction in terms to me.
	But obviously, I haven't looked into the case of it, but to be honest with you, I don't care.
	I just don't care.
	It's hard to believe.
	What does excessive force look like when you're stopping murderous communist terrorists?
	I mean, shooting them if they're unarmed?
	He didn't do that.
	So, I don't know what else.
	I mean, like, on the night of August 18th, 2020, Anfar militants threw a Molotov cocktail into the county sheriff's department headquarters.
	I think that's maybe the 10th now, if I'm counting correctly.
	I mean, it's unreal.
	They've thrown, I think it's three, lines of police officers.
	They threw one, set fire to one of their own.
	Do you remember his feet on fire?
	Yeah.
	Dancing guy.
	So he was indicted, Budworth, Corey Budworth, was indicted and charged with one count of fourth degree assault, a misdemeanor, by their own standards.
	Okay, so what?
	He beat up an anti-far kid.
	He was throwing McDonald's.
	Who is part of a riot in which Molotovs were thrown.
	Police firebombed.
	Police pushed a guy.
	Yeah.
	Okay.
	No, good.
	Good.
	You know, I don't think he's done anything wrong here.
	If these people are out rioting and...
	I mean, as if they're not being violent.
	As if they're not being, like, wildly, unacceptably violent.
	But anyway, he was accused of hitting an activist with a baton, basically.
	It's like, good.
	And they're dealing with violent terrorists who have firebombed, ID'd, and shot people in the streets.
	Yeah.
	But don't...
	Yeah, but don't use a baton.
	Yeah.
	Don't shove someone over with your shield.
	No, just...
	Put them in their place, right?
	The loss of life and property that the people of Portland have had to suffer under because of Ted Wheeler and his permissiveness with this is unreal, and they deserve everything they get.
	But apparently Ted Wheeler was begging the Riot team not to resign.
	We are told from Drew, if we can go to the next link, John, because I can't remember his full name, Drew Hernandez.
	He's a pundit and says, my insiders say Ted Wheeler was on a Zoom call today begging the right response team not to resign because Antifa has a riot scheduled tonight.
	Enjoy, Ted.
	Well...
	Get what you deserve.
	Exactly.
	Maybe, Ted, you shouldn't have been stigmatizing the police alongside with the leftist terrorists.
	That was probably a mistake.
	And maybe you shouldn't have treated them as if they were the problem and criminalized them when they were doing what was necessary to resist this incursion.
	The best episode out of the entire saga in Portland, I have to say, was after the election when Antifa went down to the Democratic headquarters of Portland and just destroyed it.
	Right, you do get what you deserve.
	You and your people have been promoting this from day one, encouraging these terrorists when the terrorists smash up your stuff.
	Your problem.
	You're hanging out with people who are literally opposed to your constitutional democracy.
	They see you as a weak traitor for engaging in it, and you're like, oh, well, I'm going to go hang out with those people.
	No, they're going to abuse you.
	Then they're going to assault you.
	Then they're going to drive you off.
	Then they're going to try and set fire to your house and your city, try and set up an autonomous zone that has seceded from the United States.
	And then when you're like, oh, police, I know I said you're all bad people, but could you go deal with this?
	They're like, no.
	And if they had succeeded, they'd put you up against the wall.
	Oh, absolutely.
	Absolutely.
	If they had the power, they would definitely have put them up against the wall.
	Sorry.
	Portland really is an example of just the decline of the West.
	It's awful.
	It's an example of what happens if you allow radical left-wingers to control the city.
	Yeah.
	I mean, that's the problem fundamentally.
	Weak politicians.
	Anyway, so the next thing here, speaking of weak politicians, so a progressive alliance was proposed a while back as a bit of a meme, to be honest, with regards to who was proposing it.
	So this is the Dark Lord himself, Tony Blair, promoting that calls for a progressive coalition between Labour and Lib Dems to regain power for the centre-left.
	He also wanted the Greens plied an SMP to be on in this, because otherwise it doesn't work.
	I get nervous whenever they start talking about power in raw terms.
	It's all how they think.
	Exactly.
	It's the only way they think.
	They think the only legitimizing factor is power, and all truth springs there forth.
	And that terrifies me, because that's a fascist worldview, and I don't like it.
	So this is coming into being right now.
	So at the time of his proposal, so he said, the former Prime Minister said a defect from birth had separated the parties, despite them sharing timeless values like fighting poverty.
	I agree with Tony Blair.
	The left wing is defective.
	Deeply defective.
	From its inception, from the very birth of the left, there has been a deep defect there.
	That's correct.
	I love that they share timeless values, like fighting poverty.
	Yeah, unlike the pro-poverty party.
	Yeah, let's have a look at the successes they've had and say the Soviet Union or China or Cambodia or wherever.
	That's not the common values.
	The common values is the collectivist mindset they have and the civic religion of wokeness.
	The fact that they all buy into that.
	So the idea was you get Labour, Liberal Democrats, Green, S&P, Ply to stand, only where their candidate is highest rated.
	So in a seat that could go Lib Dem, you'd only have a Lib Dem candidate, and you're the leftist.
	And Green, I mean, there's one seat where they go, and then S&P gets all of Scotland, Labour get most of England, and Ply Cymru get Wales, essentially.
	Well, that'd be the plan, yeah.
	That would be their plan.
	And this is great, because it proves our point that we've been arguing forever, which is, I love how you have question time, and you're like, we have a plurality of voices, we have one of them every party.
	We have one leftist, another leftist, another leftist.
	And then one con.
	And then a centre-leftist conservative.
	So this proves exactly this point.
	If we go to the next link, this is just the Pride Month example of this.
	If you click on the first image as well, just to get the point real home.
	So here are the conservatives.
	The traditional pride flag.
	Yeah, they went with the traditional.
	Labour, they went with the racial pride flag, as you can see, though, black and brown stripe.
	If you go to the next one, you've got Lib Dems, racial pride.
	If you go to the next one, you've got the Green Party, racial pride.
	And the SMP did exactly the same thing, except with a noose, for God knows what reason.
	So, yeah, they are all the same.
	They are the same goddamn group of people, just with, like, slight differences between them in what form of leftism they promote.
	Except, apparently, racial socialism has come to them all.
	So, the next thing here is just exactly why do you get stuff like this.
	So, Met LGBT Plus Network Organizing a Police and Fire Intersectionality Conference.
	This is your policy.
	No one on the right would want any of this in law.
	I saw the argument the other day when they were talking about teaching white privilege on GB News in primary schools.
	And some woman on there was like, yeah, it's just diversity and equality education, therefore it's not political.
	I was like, are you brain dead?
	I'm sorry, that's leftist indoctrination.
	Of course it's political.
	What do you think an intersectionality police conference is?
	Yeah, they're so subverted, they don't even know that these are left-wing organisations and dog-whistle slogans and ideology.
	It was weird.
	It was weird to see that argument on there.
	Anyway, so we've got the next one.
	This is a current of the channel, TLDR News, who are a bit sorry, but they do a good explanation of this, because I suppose it's advantageous for them.
	And they give you the electoral calculus that apparently, yes, this could work in terms of taking over the House of Commons...
	But it's pretty risky.
	It requires Scotland basically taking over all of...
	Sorry, the S&P taking over all of Scotland.
	So it sacrifices Scotland to the S&P. Good luck, lads.
	And also, you've got to tell the voters how to vote, which the British public don't like.
	So good luck with that.
	But this has happened, it seems.
	So if we go to the next one, this is the election which happened last night in some constituency in which a Liberal Democrat was elected after tactical voting from all the other parties to get behind the Lib Dem.
	Just to be clear, this is in Buckinghamshire.
	So if we go to the...
	That's significant because it's like part of the orbit of London.
	It's a very wealthy area of England, very metropolitan, very upper middle class, and they vote Lib Dem.
	But also, they've managed to galvanize the entire Labour Party and the entire Greens.
	And on the numbers, they won the numbers.
	So this is a seat that's usually been conservative for ages.
	So the next link here is just Wikipedia.
	If you can scroll down, there's a graph of the history of the voting patterns.
	It's not there, but oh well.
	You can look at the numbers there of the election.
	You can see 30% swing to the Liberal Democrats.
	You can go back to the top just so I can read the numbers.
	So the Liberal Democrats taking over that seat massively.
	Conservatives losing 20%.
	You can see Labour, 1%.
	622 votes out of 37,000.
	I mean, that's pretty bad.
	I think that's the worst they've ever had in this constituency in all time.
	So...
	Oof.
	But you can see the progressive alliance there of people all swinging towards the Lib Dems.
	There's also complex issues here of HS2 apparently being a local factor.
	I don't know.
	I didn't knock on doors here.
	I don't know the current of it.
	But I'm seeing that in the leftist world, that's all they're taking from this.
	So if we can go to the next link, you can see a Lib Dem.
	I think...
	Is she still MP? Or did she get kicked?
	I can't remember.
	She was the leader as well.
	Digesting the numbers a little, a huge thank you needs to go to the former conservatives who voted Lib Dem, many for the first time, but also to the thousands of Green and Labour voters who did likewise.
	The Progressive Alliance is about the grassroots tactical voters.
	You can see there the turn.
	Progressive Alliance in caps.
	Because this isn't just a misquote.
	If we go to the next one, everyone is celebrating this as a success of the Tony Blair Progressive Alliance.
	Oh, Andrew Adonis.
	Yeah, these are all the Remainers coming back for their revenge, isn't it?
	Yeah, so Remainer again, Andrew Adonis, Labour Party this time around.
	Congratulations to Sarah Green Lib Dem on her success last night.
	Great for the pro-European cause, and it's obvious we now need a Progressive Alliance.
	Read the rumour, Andrew!
	The pro-European stuff would have died by now, but good god, apparently not.
	So he's not the only one.
	If we go to the next link here, you can also see Paul Mason, Labour Party.
	Communist.
	Communist Labour Party.
	It looks like almost all the 2019 Labour voters in constituency tactically voted Lib Dem, while a significant swing from Tory to Lib Dem also happens.
	The hashtag progressive alliance is happening whether Labour bureaucracy likes it or not.
	And I can't imagine they're very pleased about it.
	And the next one is just another one of these people.
	If you're a Lib Dem or Green or vote Labour in the Bally constituency, hashtag progressive alliance, hashtag Tories out, hashtag more in common.
	I love it.
	I love it.
	They're just saying it.
	Across the board, all the leftist parties are like, yeah, actually, we're all the same.
	There's no difference between us.
	What are we doing?
	But also, the necessity for this vast alliance of left-wing parties shows that they're getting absolutely thrashed by the Conservatives.
	I mean, one of the conservatives, like 50% of the country, basically.
	It was kind of looking like a one-party state a week ago or something.
	Well, yeah, and now it's become a two-party state because the left have all realised they're all in the same boat and they're losing.
	They're not doing very well while they compete with one another.
	And the thing is, I mean, I don't know how overall successful this will be because surely there's got to be a limit to the number of radical leftists who want to be preached at by woke values.
	Yeah, I mean, I would have thought.
	But the electoral calculus, as being mentioned, is difficult, especially.
	So Emma Kennedy, again, retweeting some constituency.
	I think that's the local one.
	Look at this.
	Left and centre vote at 55%.
	Start working together, please.
	Progressive Alliance, ahoy.
	So the fact that they're arguing that if we add up all our leftist votes, we get more than 50% of the country, therefore we'll win.
	But I don't know how voters are going to feel about that once they realise, like, hang on, there's the Conservatives and then there's Wokeism.
	That's all it'll be.
	I mean, that religion is what binds you together.
	I hate to say it, but we've got to vote Conservative, guys.
	I don't like it, but it has to be that way.
	Like, this is bad for my plan, too.
	Because my plan was Labour dies, and then Conservatives get to split, and we get the nice, you know, Liberal versus Conservative actual dichotomy in England.
	And that could be the two-party system.
	But he worried.
	So the next thing here is also someone doing this.
	So politics for all, Labour may have got fewer votes than they have members in the constituency.
	So this is evidence of it being that sort of thing, in which even the Labour members, members of the Labour Party didn't vote Labour.
	They voted Lib Dem because they're trying to help out their buddies, because they know they're exactly the goddamn same.
	I mean, the members, people who spend money, go out campaigning for the Labour Party, you know, give up their free time to do that.
	You know, maybe stand as candidates themselves, spending their own money.
	Even they're not voting Labour.
	Well, it's tactical, isn't it?
	And it has to be.
	Because they're in a pretty weak position, thankfully.
	There is one more thing.
	So Dominic Cummings has been tweeting about this a lot this morning, and I quite like his viewpoint on this because he's smart.
	If anyone's got anything to say about how the country's voting patterns are going to work, it's him.
	I'd listen to him a million times over anyone else.
	So he's making fun of a lot of other pundits here.
	So the SW1 pundits, as he likes to call them.
	So this is Dan Hodges endlessly tweeting that, you know, get a grip, Jeremy Corbyn's not going to be elected, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
	Making a million predictions, you know, Brexit will never pass, blah, blah, blah, blah.
	So he says, And he argues in here that...
	There's a big shift going on.
	So instead of just saying, oh, there's one thing, he argues there's a massive shift going on between politics, the fact that he's with Brexit, he's managed to move working class voters, but also the other side of the coin, which people aren't really paying attention to, is what he's paying attention to, which is the shift is now, I mean, among the educated types, the midwits, the one who went to university, got an English degree.
	Yeah.
	They're all unifying.
	And if they all unify, they can actually be a...
	Threatening block?
	Yeah.
	It's awful, because their politics are the worst thing on the planet.
	Yeah.
	I mean, the only thing that combines them is the woke religion.
	Yeah.
	And if they all manage to unify themselves in that manner, they can actually be a threat.
	And I really don't want that.
	Yeah.
	And so what the conservatives need to do now is polarize the issue along the lines of social conservatism.
	Because the left will be forced to commit to the most radical positions on social life, which will be essentially anti-family, anti-gender...
	Anti-common sense.
	And this is something that I think that many people in the working class demographics of the country find quite horrific because their families are their lives.
	So the Conservatives need to really quite hammer that home.
	I wouldn't even say just working class.
	The non-university indoctrinated.
	Sure.
	But particularly the working class people around the country, I think, find this particularly offensive because it's kind of disgusting.
	So basically, what the Conservatives really need to do is make sure that the next election will be a referendum on woke politics.
	Find all of the worst things the woke have done, all of the things they're pushing for.
	And make sure it's in everyone's faces and say, we're opposed to this.
	That's what you need to do.
	Because that is the lines, as you said, that is the line on which this is drawn.
	And if you allow them to decide what the battlefield is going to be when it comes to woke politics, then they may well beat you.
	And you don't want that.
	Who wants that?
	It's just the abolition of everything.
	So the thing here, I mean, if you're a Conservative or you're in a position of no one, it's just like, that's the thing that needs to be in their face, as you say.
	That's why I'm really glad about GB News having a section called Woke Watch.
	Absolutely.
	They need to make this a mainstream thing for every Conservative MP member and thinker.
	Conservative MPs should go on Andrew Neil's Woke Watch.
	Yeah, constantly.
	Like, the way the Republicans have been able to put critical race theory to the forefront and say, this is what the left believes, you know, segregating your children.
	How do you feel about this, folks?
	I mean, how do you think most people feel about that?
	Pretty horrific.
	Exactly.
	That's what they think it is.
	The same thing has to be done in Britain.
	You have to get this stuff in front of people constantly to remind them, hey, you know this progressive alliance?
	They're all saying they're the same, all of these parties.
	Yeah, well, they are, and they believe in this.
	Yeah, they support Robin DiAngelo, they support Kenny Andrews, they support all of these radical left-wing thinkers who are actually total racists and hate this country.
	Like, they support segregation, they support racial discrimination against white people, on the basis they're white.
	Or Asians, once they become white.
	Or, I don't know, I mean, Indians are white at this point, I imagine as well.
	Well, if they vote Conservative, they become honorary whites, I've been told.
	But the point is, make sure that the issue is politicised very heavily.
	Like you said, with the Republicans bringing critical race theory to the forefront, you do the same.
	It doesn't have to be critical race theory necessarily, although that is one excellent avenue of attack.
	But just make sure it's everything that they want that is bad.
	You are the ones presenting.
	So they have to either disavow it, which they won't do because they get chewed up and they'll destroy their own alliance.
	They'll walk into the trap.
	Exactly.
	They'll walk into the trap.
	So if you, unfortunately for you, you're going to have to take a hard stance on something, which I know the conservatives don't like doing, but this is pretty guaranteed.
	The trans issue.
	The trans issue is the losing issue for the left.
	All women, women.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	You have to come out and support the TERFs here, the biological essentialists who say, no, there is actually a biological connection between being female and being a woman.
	I know, a radical statement for a conservative to make.
	I mean, just take Blair White.
	Just take that example, put it in their face and be like, male rapist put in a female prison, sexually assault the inmates.
	The left wants this.
	Is that Blair White?
	Sorry, not Blair White.
	I can't remember the name.
	It's something white.
	No, but there was a woman, a transgender male to female, who did that.
	This is the issue on which the left can't actually win, because their position on it is not intuitive.
	Karen White, there we are, sorry.
	Karen White, right.
	But their position is simply not intuitive, and you have to believe radical left-wing nonsense for it to become true.
	So that is going to be one of their primary weaknesses.
	And the thing is, either you'll have the centre-left who'll go, well, yeah, I know, we're just being polite, which everyone is happy with, but that will infuriate the radical section, who will say, no, that is the case, and you can't just be polite about it.
	You have to believe it.
	And so you'll sow discord and disharmony within their own alliance.
	I think that's honestly the best way for the Conservatives to go.
	I mean, getting the left to endorse segregation in front of the public.
	Yeah, I mean, any racial angle, obviously.
	Could you ask for an easier win?
	Yeah, any racial angle, obviously.
	But, well, no, one last thing is the Conservatives, you've got to be arguing from sort of a traditional British view of values.
	What is proper to do, right?
	That's the way to do it because that, instinctively, in a British person's mind, is the correct thing to do, right?
	Just appeal to tradition.
	But don't make it overt.
	Just say, well, I just think it's the right thing to do that and make a true statement.
	That's it.
	There is one more option.
	You can make the Labour Party endorse Islam.
	Well, they already have.
	I'm not joking.
	So they've already done this as a bit of a meme, black flag of Labour and all the rest of it.
	Calvin Robinson posting here.
	I saw this this morning and I can't get it out of my head how just absurd it is.
	So, Calvin Robinson.
	Worrying that the Labour candidate in Batley and Spen has spent so much real estate in her literature discussing border conflicts in foreign countries instead of proposing local policies.
	How do the issues of Palestine slash Kashmir affect local residents?
	West Yorkshire deserves better.
	West Yorkshire, eh?
	West Yorkshire stunt.
	So you can see here, this is the local candidate in Batley and Spen.
	This is the back of her card.
	You know, everyone sends a card around the front.
	There'll be a picture of her looking stupid.
	And then the back of it, what is it?
	First section, Palestine.
	And a big long spiel about how she stands with the heroes of Palestine and all the rest of it.
	Oh, God!
	That's how we're describing Hamas now, is it?
	And then Kashmir, a section on Kashmir, talking about how she wants, I don't know, presumably Kashmiri independence for the Muslim population to join Pakistan.
	You can see her, you know, poo-pooing conservative links to the BJP there.
	So she will give the voice, she writes there, as your MP, I will give you a strong national voice on Kashmir.
	I'm sure the people of Buckinghamshire are very concerned about this.
	Put this in front of people's faces.
	And the last point here being Islamophobia and her ranting all about Islamophobia.
	The obvious point here being Batley and Spen, demographics.
	Come on, let's not mess about.
	There's a reason she's doing this.
	That seat, this is the issue, I guess.
	Isn't that depressing?
	I'd have to check, but I'd be surprised if Buckinghamshire has had mass immigration.
	No, no, badly in Spain.
	Oh, specifically.
	Specifically that constituency.
	The demographics are tough.
	So that's that.
	That constituency has now fallen to the black flag of Labour.
	But the thing that...
	I mean, just get that out in the public's view.
	Nationally, this is what Labour stands for.
	Islam.
	Why?
	What happened to, like, families?
	No, families have gone now.
	All we care about is Kashmir.
	I mean, I will be a strong voice for Kashmir as your MP. Also, let me talk to you about your child's gender identity.
	Yeah, I mean, you could not get a better opposition who are just so awful, in which case, get it out in the public.
	Make sure, as the Republicans have done successfully now, that the public can see that the left, what do they endorse?
	They endorse segregation, they endorse becoming essentially a non-country, and they want you to chop your son's genitals off.
	Like, great, that's their winning formula.
	Make sure people know that.
	And this progressive alliance should stay dead, and hopefully everyone sees through it.
	Yeah, hopefully it won't last.
	But anyway, so yeah, moving on to the last bit, which actually follows on from that.
	Use GB News, Conservatives, because GB News is something that has been very provocative to the Progressive Alliance.
	And the Progressive Alliance on Twitter especially have been particularly active, but their attack has stalled, which is good.
	This has all happened very recently.
	Just to cover, so a bunch of brands pulled out of GB News' advertising.
	Now, the way this works is the brands themselves pay other third parties to organize the promotion of their content on various channels, and so they probably didn't know that they were being advertised on GB News.
	Not that this should have been important, but Open University, Nivea, OvoEnergy, Indie.com, Boots, Porsche Home, Mini Supermarket, LV... Octopus Energy, they all virtue-signaled on Twitter saying, oh, we didn't know anything about this, we're going to cancel.
	And that was an interesting move.
	Because, obviously, GB News had faced accusations that it would be broadcasting US-style partisan news shows in the UK. Please.
	Please.
	What a bloody embarrassing statement.
	As if the rest of our media isn't partisan news shows like the US. It's just that we don't have a right-wing representation in our partisan news.
	Sorry.
	But, obviously, all of these pulling and going, oh, well, we won't go on there unless it's genuinely balanced, which...
	As I put in the video that I put up earlier, this is not a standard to which anyone else has held, which is amazing, frankly.
	And then they started virtually saying about how much money they gave to progressive causes, which just goes to show you exactly the political leanings of the people involved here.
	Why are they not virtually signaling about giving a million dollars to conservative traditionalist movements?
	Good question.
	Andrew Neal pushed back on this.
	Actually, before we get to Andrew Neal, there's an interesting statement by Piers Morgan.
	Oh, shut up, you pathetic virtue-signaling twerps.
	I'm now boycotting IKEA after IKEA decided to boycott GB News because of their alleged values.
	Interesting.
	That's coming from IKEA. But yeah, so one thing that makes you wonder is why isn't Piers Morgan with GB News?
	Where's he going to go?
	Well, is he not saying, I'm now boycotting Ikea, so he's with GB News there?
	Yeah, no, no, no.
	You mean in the sense he's not on the show?
	Why doesn't he have a show?
	Because, I mean, after Piers Morgan walked off of Good Morning Britain, their ratings absolutely collapsed.
	Like, more than half of their audience left them with Piers Morgan.
	And I'm just like, wow.
	I had no idea Piers Morgan was propping up Good Morning Britain.
	But I guess he's got that kind of...
	There's a normalcy about him that is reassuring to people.
	Yeah, Piers Morgan's on the news making a prat of himself.
	Right, okay, next.
	Now I'm going to eat my toast and then I'm going to go off to work and the world is right and everything is normal, right?
	I think that's what Piers Morgan kind of represents.
	Although, I would say in some points he's done well.
	Defending the honour of men was a nice thing for him to do.
	Men shouldn't be humiliated in public for being men.
	Blossing over terrorist attacks, probably not a good idea.
	No.
	But anyway, so Andrew Neal struck back with an editorial on GB News, accusing them of taking the knee, specifically to the campaign group Stop Funding Hate, which is obviously a communist activist group that tries to essentially harass and bully brands and any other...
	The bloody irony of the thing.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Stop funding hate.
	How are we going to do that?
	We're just going to cause hate endlessly.
	All day, every day.
	Spewing hate all over Twitter.
	Harassing these brands and making them think there's an active sort of segment of the public that doesn't want them to broadcast on GB News, but obviously there's not.
	No one watching GB News is going to be like, oh no, I can't believe that Copperberg are advertising it.
	I'm never drinking Copperberg again.
	As if that's how that works.
	Yeah, as if that's how that works.
	No one thinks that.
	No one thinks that the brand's advertising on anything is an endorsement of that thing.
	No one thinks that.
	No.
	Everyone thinks, okay, well they're just cynical corporate money grabbers.
	Like Coca-Cola isn't advertising on the bus stop because they love buses.
	Yeah, exactly.
	No one thinks this.
	We just want to support local transport.
	No one thinks that.
	You just want us to be aware of your product, so we buy it.
	Because everyone knows how capitalism works.
	But anyway...
	So yeah, this boycott was sparked by a social media campaign called Stop Funding Hate, which aims to persuade advertisers to pull their support from publications that spread hate and division.
	Yikes, that's a lot of left-wing publications that are going to have to be defunded.
	But while many applauded the brands who have paused their ad campaigns, putting a further review of the content, supporters of the channel have reacted in fury, pledging to boycott the companies.
	And calling out the companies that spend the advertising with GB News, Andrew said, They bowed to the pressure from a fringe group called Stop Finding Hate, a misnomer if ever there was one.
	Good job, Andrew.
	It's quite remarkable that serious, important executives and well-established companies can be so easily cowed.
	They've all taken the need to stop finding hate.
	That's very good.
	Well done, Andrew.
	Neil claimed that it stopped funding hate is dominated by far-left agitators and cranks that push for advertised boycotts of any media organisation with which it disagrees, and accused the campaign of rounding up the lynch mob four months before we started broadcasting.
	Also true.
	Yeah, they did that.
	Before GB News had even launched, they were harassing people to not fund it.
	Yeah.
	It's like, you don't even know what the content is.
	I mean, still, it's been on for, what, like a week?
	Not even.
	Four days?
	And they're like, yeah, the content's awful, so...
	You haven't watched any?
	They haven't had a scandal yet.
	Nothing they've said has been scandalous so far.
	I mean, so far the only thing that's scandalous is not being able to hear them at times.
	Yes, their technical problems have indeed been the main scandal, which is why...
	I don't think Copperberg's pulling for that.
	No, and that would actually be a more legitimate argument as well.
	Sorry, this doesn't look professional enough.
	We don't know our brand associated with that.
	Sorry.
	That would be a more persuasive argument than we find them out of accordance with our values.
	It's like, you were an alcohol manufacturer?
	Your values?
	Your values?
	You facilitate wife-beating.
	Or Ikea and its founder.
	Yeah, and we'll talk about that in a bit.
	But it's like, alcohol is a vice, Copperberg.
	You sell vices to people.
	You make your money on a daily basis by helping cirrhosis of the liver kill off parts of the population.
	I may be a drug dealer, but at least I don't support hate.
	Yeah, exactly!
	Exactly!
	It's like, look, there is no way anyone should be lectured to by people who produce vices for their entire industry.
	Get bent, honestly.
	Just shut up, you know?
	Pablo Escobar, he has his ethics.
	Exactly!
	I can't believe that.
	He was a Democrat.
	It is, but anyway, so this editorial by Andrew Neal had a fair amount of whack to it, and it got a bunch of them to row back, backtrack on their protests, because they realized, hang on a second, GB News haven't actually done anything wrong, and we're being obviously partisan here.
	And that's an embarrassing thing if you want people who disagree with your politics to still buy your product, because you remember you are a business, not a political party.
	But anyway, so as the Daily Mail report, businesses started rowing back on their boycott of GB News after Andrew Neal went after them.
	Money Supermarket, Ikea, Vodafone and Borscht all ended an advertising moratorium with the nascent broadcaster following the online campaign by activists led by the quote, sinister, stop funding, hey I like that, sinister, stop funding, they are sinister.
	They'd be rioting in Portland if they were in Portland and they had the freedom, but they don't.
	So all they can do is their sinister campaigns of hate on social media.
	They would happily murder everyone on GB News.
	Oh yeah.
	If they got their way, that's what they'd do.
	Yeah, if the revolution came tomorrow, they'd happily line them up against the wall and shoot more.
	Probably shoot their kids too.
	Sick bastards.
	Sorry, I hate socialists.
	They've done this a million times.
	They're totally immoral.
	The amount of people that socialists killed for the revolution is just beyond counting.
	Anyway, several of these companies said they will now reconsider resuming their social media campaigns after caving into the agitators.
	Where was it?
	It's...
	Money Supermarket decided that, just to confirm, they're not boycotting its advertising on GB News.
	IKEA and Vodafone both made it clear they may restart adverts after a review.
	And a company source told Guido Fawkes that they have no intention of boycotting, and a social media person made this...
	Oh, right, yeah, so the Vodafone one, right?
	So someone messaged Vodafone's Twitter account, and the Twitter account responded with...
	Where is it?
	Are you sure this isn't the text?
	Yeah, it's the direct message.
	I think it was someone text their friend.
	Ah, here we go.
	No, no, no, no.
	It's from the official Vodafone account.
	And you can see it's a message from whoever's running that.
	And they said because they'd chosen to boycott GB News because the TV channel was promising to combat so-called cancel culture.
	Thanks for saying it.
	Yeah, thanks for coming out and saying it.
	And of course, you know, that made Vodafone have to come out and say, no, no, that's not the reason.
	That's not the reason that person's in trouble.
	But they say that they have no intention of boycotting, and that person made a decision way above their station.
	Sure, sure.
	They weren't told by their boss and their boss's boss or anything like that.
	It was just totally, totally a rogue person on social media.
	Anyway, the co-op, I misspoke in my video about it yesterday and said the co-op had also pulled out, but they in fact hadn't, and they actually came out with a remarkably principled statement.
	The co-op bank pulled out.
	The co-op bank pulled out, but not the co-op shop.
	They say, we will, one, not seek to affect the editorial independence of publications or channels, and two, not undermine the commercial value of our society for our members, and three, ensure our values and principles are clear regardless of surrounding content.
	Good.
	That's actually the correct response.
	The people who sell you beans shouldn't be trying to control all news.
	Yeah, they should have no editorial agenda when it comes to the media because why would you?
	Again, that strikes me as being remarkably kind of fascist in aspect.
	Like you're literally a bean seller?
	You are literally meant to be neutral.
	Do you remember how capitalism works?
	But the reason that all of this matters is because GBNews BTFO'd the rest of them completely in their ratings.
	So, as The Guardian, presumably through gritted teeth, was forced to report, according to the TV news industry magazine broadcast, GBNews peaked in its opening minutes with 336,000 viewers, meaning outperformed the 100,000 who watched the BBC News across the same hour and 46,000 who watched Sky News at the same time.
	So, more than double both of their leading competitors.
	Woof.
	Just like Fox News.
	Just like Fox News.
	Andrew Neil is going to become the Tucker Carlson of Britain, clearly.
	And that's good.
	Because we need one.
	And, I mean, those numbers are...
	It just shows you the gap in the market.
	Unbelievable.
	You look at Fox News and CNN and MSNBC, and Fox News blows them out the heck in the United States.
	And then you're over here.
	I mean, day one launch.
	I mean, no brand loyalty, no mass support, no institutional support, no government tax to help it, and yet it blows everyone out the water.
	That's the gap in the market.
	It just goes to show you that, yeah, exactly, there's a craving for news that is not focused around the idea of destroying Britain and subverting the family and telling you you're a bad person because you're white.
	Who could have known?
	Who could have predicted this?
	But yeah, so this was really well done by GB News.
	Good job.
	To be honest with you, I'm surprised at 336,000.
	That's not that many.
	That's, you know, live time, audience.
	Sure, but still.
	But I mean, you don't see any YouTube channels of like 300,000 people watching live normally.
	Well, not live, I suppose.
	But anyway, so yeah, so the response from the woke left was quite pathetic, and they have been on Twitter acting like absolute children.
	So if we can go to the – that's just the video I did – the mirror.
	So this is them essentially crowing over how childish they've been towards Good Morning Britain, GB News.
	And the thing is, it just seems very playground, right?
	It seems like a bunch of children being bullies on social media because they know they're the ones – Yeah.
	Seems like you're laughing through gritted teeth, though, as you look at those numbers.
	Hmm.
	And I'm sure the technical glitches won't last forever.
	I mean, give them their credit.
	It's a brand new station with all new programs.
	Normally, you launch a new program every month or something, and then you see how it goes.
	But no, they've had to launch everything brand new with a bunch of people who've never worked with each other before, with a technical team who's just been dumped into it.
	It can't have been easy, and like I said, these are not going to last forever, so enjoy your moments of snapping at their heels while you can, because it looks like Andrew Neil has created a titan in British news now, and that's not good for you, is it?
	How are you going to stop people watching it?
	Because that's the fundamental problem they've got.
	Yes, well that's why they want people, they want it deplatformed.
	They want the advertisers to pull.
	And anyway, so the general response has been pathetic.
	There was one lady, Dr.
	Julia Grace Patterson, she's part of Every Doctor UK, is essentially a leftist doctors union it seems.
	And she says, Well, I've never heard of you either, but let's be fair.
	They said, they've never heard of me!
	I'm so important!
	It's like, who the hell are you?
	Yeah, exactly.
	I don't know who you are, but I'm sure you're important on Twitter.
	Ooh, you've got 9,000 likes there.
	But the point is, this Octopus Energy CEO is like, well, we'll only support them if they present a genuinely balanced view.
	It's like, okay, it's going to be hard to be genuinely balanced when the other side literally refuses to engage, isn't it?
	It's going to be like, well, we invited them and they decided not to come.
	What can we do?
	Anyway, what's the other stuff that you'd found on this?
	Yeah, so there's some other things.
	The next one, actually, was kind of funny.
	So this is a joke from a leftist in which he's saying, GB News, day three, and then it's most cis-like, screaming down the phone because there were a few pranks that went on.
	So we go to the next one.
	This is someone calling up and saying the name was Mike Hunt.
	Ah, yes.
	Mike Hunt.
	The very mature leftists on Twitter decided they'd do the very mature thing.
	And there's the next one, which is just Mike Oxlong, which I've got to pronounce very carefully there.
	But that's what they've been up to.
	But look, all their little friends on social media are giving them likes.
	This is the right thing to do.
	This is mature.
	This is how people who want to run a healthy democracy act.
	It's a good joke, though.
	I'll give them that.
	It's classic.
	Sure, but it just goes to show you the people who would claim to be the intellectual great and good are actually just a bunch of children.
	So if we go to the next one here, this is someone pointing out here that there is a real good value in GP News, as I mentioned earlier, which is this clip here.
	So...
	Neil introduced Rishi Sunak and interviewed him on his massive spending.
	Because no one else is asking this question.
	How can you spend so much money and expect people to believe that you're fiscally conservative?
	And he asked him at one point, what makes you a fiscal conservative?
	And he says, I believe that the money isn't mine.
	And that was it.
	So you're quite happy to spend huge amounts of other people's money.
	I'm happy to spend it, but at least I admit it's not mine.
	That makes me a fiscal conservative, doesn't it?
	And then there's some other embarrassment in here.
	So if he had gone on any other news station, he'd be talking to a leftist, and he knows this, and you can tell because all of his answers are tailored in that way.
	When he spoke to Neil, you could see that it was just not happening.
	So he asked the question, net zero.
	So every time you talk about net zero in a leftist space, from a government perspective, you're always saying, we're going to get it done so soon.
	It's going to be so fast, and it's going to cost nothing.
	Wait, cost?
	No, don't mention that.
	Yeah.
	And then he went on GB News and he asked him how much it's going to cost.
	And he had no answer.
	Neil pointed out that previously a government minister had said it cost £1 trillion.
	God.
	£1 trillion.
	And per household £10,000 for boiler replacements alone.
	And he squirmed.
	And he squirmed.
	Good.
	Because he didn't know what to say.
	Because every other outlet would have just been like, oh, and you're going to get it done.
	That's wonderful.
	And we'll have zero carbon.
	And that'll be so perfect.
	Yeah.
	No other questions.
	The insane left-wing position.
	Whereas he was actually, here's a dose of reality, how much does that cost?
	How much is that going to cost me?
	Ten grand, a house.
	That's just for the boilerplate.
	And Rishi's like, but it's not my money.
	Yeah, at least I'm a conservative.
	I'm a fiscal conservative.
	So yeah, this guy from the Telegraph pointing out, that's the value of this.
	That is really valuable, to have at least a space where you can start making them realise, no, stop talking in leftist language, and hopefully it'll have an effect on government policy, such as being so blasé about, ooh, we're going to reach net zero.
	How?
	How much money?
	That's what you're asking.
	How much are my money?
	So we go to the next one here.
	There's Peter Dukes being salty about this.
	Each angry tweet or article just convinces them that they are martyrs on a burning pyre, even though that pyre is actually made of money and is not actually on fire.
	What?
	Because nobody thought to hire anyone who knows how fire works.
	Okay, Peter, but when all the advertisers are like, we're going to pull out, that's basically the pyre that's on fire that is burning the money.
	I don't know what to say.
	Like, you're just not paying attention.
	I mean, look, the active campaign of bullying and harassment of GB News seems to indicate that you're just coping.
	So then, I found this article from The Telegraph talking about this, and it's pretty good, actually, which I don't usually say about The Telegraph.
	So, the guy says, companies have made a filter error by declaring war on the Tory voters.
	I mean, truth.
	I mean, why would you declare war on half the country?
	And he phrases it pretty good as well.
	A generation of craven corporate apparatchiks, enthralled to the latest American nostrums, have lost their moral bearings.
	There was a time when business was conservative-leaning but apolitical, and senior executives voted Tory or at a stretch Tony Blair.
	Increasingly, this is no longer true.
	in a historic miscalculation swaths of the british business have shifted to the radical left embracing its capital culture and and adopting extremely political mission statements take ikea which says it won't advertise on gb news why insult
	so many of its customers by stating on the day of the retailer was fined in france for spying on its staff that it has quote safeguards in place to prevent our advertising from appearing on platforms which are not in line with our humanistic values and vision to set aside with so many people.
	That's amazing.
	But just the idea that GB News, you know, don't have humanistic values.
	It's like, oh yeah, well we're actually for putting people into a grinder, you know.
	Here on GB News, we'll be grinding up the opposition.
	Like, what do you think they're doing?
	Like, after the interview of guests, they're just like, and kill yourself?
	Yeah.
	Into the suicide booth, if you please.
	What do you think?
	It's so uncharitable.
	He finishes off here with a really good point as well.
	Did it really want to remind the public of its fascist past of its founder?
	Ikea there.
	We'll mention that in a minute.
	So he says, and this is where he falls down a little bit, the person whose complaint triggered Ikea's tweet was a socialist and a supporter of the Welsh Independence Party.
	Can't these big companies see that by politicising every act of consumer choice, they will kill capitalism?
	That's right.
	If we're talking about Ikea and its fascist past, yeah, they kind of want to kill capitalism.
	That's kind of their point.
	So we go to the next link here.
	I didn't know this until this morning, and I'm really glad I know this because it's really funny for me, which is, you know, Ikea there being like, they're not humanists, also a spy on the staff, but the founder of Ikea, a full-blown fascist.
	Like, not just a bit either.
	So...
	He joined the fascist party, I think it was like 1942 or something like that, and he has been around for at least three years.
	He was an active member, he had a significant position, he would raise money and members for the party all the time.
	So they write on Wikipedia.
	Richard Orange noted that in 1943, a file proved for the first time that Kampfran was an active member of the Svenska Socialist Samling, so the Swedish Socialist Collective, the successor to the Swedish National Socialist Workers' Party.
	The Swedish socialist collective with the neo-Nazis.
	Yes.
	Lovely phrasing there.
	They're all socialists.
	Because they are.
	Fascists, fascism, socialism, and race socialism, all socialists.
	Well, next week we'll record the book club on Neither Left Nor Right and explain exactly why they're socialists and explain how they metastasised out of socialist movements because it's really worth knowing.
	Because what do you need as well?
	I mean, how many more times do the Nazis have to tell you we are socialists before you get the message that they are socialists?
	They literally called themselves in Sweden the Swedish Socialist Collective.
	What do you want?
	So it quotes letters intercepted from Mr.
	Camperon, then 17, in which he enthuses about recruiting new members and says that he, quote, misses no opportunity to work for the movement.
	Orange added, quote, the Secret Service has concluded that Mr.
	Camperon received the party's youth newspaper and must have held some sort of official position within the organization.
	And he was there for three years as the founder of IKEA there.
	Tell us about your values, Ikea.
	Yeah.
	How fascist are they?
	We want to know.
	I mean, continuing the line of lineage there by pulling out of GB News, a conservative outlet, and instead siding with the socialists and your fellow cousins.
	I mean, one of the interesting things that...
	I can't remember which French fascist it was that said.
	They were just like, look, we don't see it as being various flavours of socialism.
	We just see it as the big fight.
	Socialism versus capitalism.
	And we're against capitalism.
	And so when the Telegraph guy is like, well, don't they know this will hurt capitalism?
	Yeah, they do.
	They're very much against capitalism.
	As you can see.
	I just love it.
	Like, the Swedish fascist.
	What should we call ourselves?
	The Swedish Socialist Collective.
	Thank you.
	I'll explain it to you in detail.
	It happened a lot of times in the past as well.
	It doesn't matter.
	I'll explain it to you in detail.
	I just can't get over how the leftists are constantly trying to make out that, like, liberalism leads to this.
	It doesn't make any sense.
	Well, I mean, in a very indirect way, as in liberalism leads to socialism, and socialism leads to fascism, maybe.
	But the idea that it doesn't come from socialism.
	There is no fascism without socialism.
	And fascism is an attempt at socialism.
	After they realized that the proletariat wasn't a revolutionary force.
	But again, we'll talk about that in a time.
	Sign up on LotusEast.com.
	You'll get to know.
	Hey, Callum.
	This is for you.
	I was going to say that to explain American politics to your British friends, just say that the Democratic Party is like Mr.
	Gilbert from The Inbetweeners and Joe Biden's just Peto Kennedy.
	Changed my mind.
	I can't change your mind.
	I don't know, Gilbert's too much fun.
	Yeah, Gilbert's alright.
	Gilbert's too base for that.
	I remember you sent me a message before, but I can't remember.
	The chap here asked, what features should a man look for in a woman he's going to marry?
	And your answer was fidelity.
	Yes.
	Because I know he asked you and you weren't here.
	Let's go to the next one.
	Mow down a theatre?
	Victim of society.
	Burn down a city?
	Mostly peaceful protester.
	Just kind of shit up the capital and go for a corrupt governor?
	Sparist.
	Welcome to clown world.
	But this is what happens when you get the total inversion of values.
	Again, I don't want to keep referencing...
	It's mostly fed insurrection as well.
	Well, there is that too.
	But the point is, it's the total inversion of values.
	We cover this on the Ethics of Social Justice, which is a premium podcast we did, in which we explain this is how they do it.
	They thin out the concepts until they can now overload one side with morality and devalue the other side.
	And it's why we end up here.
	Let's go for that cross.
	...and roll it into a scroll which I tenderly place seam-side down in a lined and buttered...
	This gives Joel's skin travel by now.
	CV, some nosy guy.
	Skills.
	What's that say?
	I can't read it.
	Coding, making beards, getting...
	Oh, making breads.
	Eating breads and viking.
	Yeah, I'd hire the chef.
	I'm afraid we don't need a show.
	We got John, so yeah.
	Let's go for the next one.
	During Biden's press conference, he said the difference between America and Russia was that America believed rights came from birth.
	But then he said that people should yield those rights to the government.
	Did he?
	Quite disturbing.
	I'm amazed that no one's picked up on it.
	Also, now that he's met Putin, can he still say that Hunter Biden's the smartest guy he knows?
	I tell, oil guy, if you want to send us a link to that or something, I didn't see that.
	No wonder no one's picked up on it.
	But yeah, no, I'd love to see that, because that's, honestly, the origin of the construction of rights is the key reason that the socialists are winning at the moment, and it is the conservatives are going to have to go back to natural rights.
	They exist within you and not by the government.
	It's the only way to win.
	Afternoon, gents.
	First off, the people in the chat yesterday that had a girl with my accent for being too posh cry more, it's not my fault you still sound like a child who snorts sherbet.
	Secondly, the progressives seem to have adopted the Marxian worldview when it comes to the Jews because apparently the Juden is the biggest threat to the world right now and not the Kung Flu spawning CCP.
	Not sure why, I mean because Trump was anti-China.
	But hypothetically speaking, if Trump was pro-China, would that make them anti-China?
	And if so, would those black and Asian crime stats end up making black people look really based?
	That's a good question, and one unfortunately we'll never get the answer to.
	But yeah, Trump was very much pro-Israel, anti-China.
	And look at the way they are now.
	Look at the left.
	No, anti-Israel, pro-China.
	One of the things I have seen that's a bit weird is when Joe went to...
	What is he going to go to meet Putin?
	The Republican Party outlets, like their accounts, were making ads showing that Joe's going to hand America over to Russia, and it's just weird.
	It's just weird messaging.
	Stop worrying about the Russians.
	You need to subvert the Russians with money.
	They're barely even of regional power at this point.
	Their economy is worse than Italy's.
	Yeah, you should be offering them trade deals.
	You should be like, look, we can all make money.
	Bring them away from the communists in China.
	Become liberal, get money.
	It's just, you know, and this, literally, you go back 100 years, and before, in fact, before the Russian Revolution, and this is what, like, you know, authors and writers at the time thought was going to happen, that Russia would enter the American sphere of interest by becoming a capitalist state, and then, of course, you have Lenin taking over and making a communist state.
	But, like, there's nothing inherent in Russia that means they don't want to have luxuries.
	There's an inherent problem with the idea of it becoming, like, a liberal democracy.
	No, I'm not saying...
	Obviously, it's not going to become a liberal democracy.
	No, but, I mean, that's fundamentally the problem.
	The authoritarian nature of Russian governance, it's either that or anarchy, is what history has shown.
	Yes, of course.
	But, like, that's not...
	I'm not saying that Russia is going to become a constitutionalist democracy like we are, theoretically.
	But just stop killing your opposition, if you could.
	Yeah, but...
	What I'm saying is that there's a lot more to offer the Russians than the communists in China are going to offer them, and so do it, you know?
	Anyway, stop treating them like they're about to take over, because they're really not.
	I love dogs.
	Yeah.
	Plus they have one of those dogs there right now.
	Well, they're adorable.
	I realise how much my dog comment there sounded like a feminist, but...
	Yeah, you really did, yeah.
	But it is true, though.
	How did you know?
	You don't know about the whole...
	Ducks are, like, the cutest thing, but their sex life is the worst thing.
	Like, male genitalia is corkscrew and has bobs on it, and, like, the female genitalia is corkscrew in the other way and has bobs on it, and that's evolutionary groan because male ducks just keep raping female ducks.
	Right.
	Like, it's not that bad that the genitals are...
	Even evolution is like, look, this is gonna stop.
	Yeah, because the male ducks are just full-on rapists.
	They rape more female ducks.
	I had no idea.
	Yeah.
	Why are you so confident he'll change his behavior, Mr.
	Mr. President.
	We'll change their behavior.
	laughs Would you consider including H.G. Wells' When the Sleeper Wakes as part of a future podcast?
	I've never read it.
	I've never heard of it.
	I just know that statue is really unsettling.
	Don't put googly eyes on a bronze statue.
	That's not good.
	Another individual note recently is Brett Weinstein in relation to COVID and the vaccines.
	He recently put up a video titled, How to Save the World in Three Easy Steps.
	He speaks with guests about the potential risks of the vaccine due to the spike proteins produced by the mRNA injection, even if it doesn't contain active COVID, particularly if they enter the respiratory system.
	In addition, he speaks about potential good treatments that have been suppressed or ignored.
	I'm surprised YouTube haven't taken that down yet.
	So he's got half a million views, so that's good.
	I think it did get taken down.
	Yeah, he got some strikes.
	So they took it down and they struck his channel.
	So he's on two strikes, he's one away from being deleted entirely.
	I mean, isn't he a PhD in biology?
	What does that matter?
	Well, I mean...
	Well, I was going to say, it means that he's probably saying something that contains some truth to it, but I suppose that is the point, isn't it?
	What does that matter?
	I like that he's added subtitles there, because, yeah, sorry, Matt, I really have a tough time understanding you in those videos.
	Yeah.
	Furthermore, the FBI and the CIA must be destroyed.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I mean, like, there is evidence to suggest they're kind of rogue agencies as well in some ways, so...
	I was really hoping that was going to go into Pakistan.
	I'm just so sick.
	That government is the worst thing on the planet Earth.
	I told you about the airlift they did in Afghanistan.
	So a NATO coalition invades Afghanistan, encircles the Taliban.
	Pakistan organizes an airlift of the Taliban out there to make sure they're okay.
	Thanks, Pakistan.
	They're just the worst people.
	I mean, there's a million other examples, but the Pakistani government is the trash.
	I wanted to give you a small update to show you that I have been doing something interesting.
	I decided I wanted to learn a new skill, essentially, and I thought I'd take the skills I'd learnt from playing with Warhammer as a kid, modelling and so on, and turn it into something useful.
	So here's one of the pieces I've worked on.
	I've been doing some jewellery.
	So I made this little ankh for my missus.
	She quite likes it.
	Cast with cuttlefish, which is really fun.
	But basically the plan was to eventually learn how to create my own engagement ring and eventually propose to her in a nice romantic way.
	That's a great idea.
	Yeah, that's very nice.
	I've seen a bunch of those on Facebook, you know, when you're scrolling.
	Yeah, yeah.
	You know what, yeah.
	I mean, if you're not going to do one.
	She'll approve.
	Hey guys, so I wanted to say thank you so much to Callum for being my first follower on Twitter.
	But there's an actual huge reason why I made my Twitter.
	It's brand new and it's because I am an aspiring writer and I kind of need a following, of course, to be able to sell my books once they're out.
	So that's why I started my Twitter and I am going to start on YouTube and other social medias, which I used to be I'm sorry for confessing my sins in this matter, but I used to be a cosplayer when I was a teenager, but I had a situation happen to me.
	Let's say that it resulted in me being rescued by a police officer two years after a lot of people didn't know anything about me, and that provoked me to be very I guess traumatized about the internet and I deleted all my social medias and of course I changed my name now I go by Ana this time after several years of being off everything so once again thank you so much to Callan for following me and I
	am going to answer his questions for in tomorrow's video Yeah, I got a notification this morning.
	I recognized her from the videos.
	But it was just, thank you for telling us about Puerto Rico.
	Because I've always wanted to know what on earth is going on with that.
	Because I know it's not a state and it's a weird limbo land.
	So, I mean, you get so much information.
	I've seen libertarians saying, oh, you know, this thing shows it's a paradise of libertarians.
	And I've seen socialists being, oh, it's a socialist paradise.
	Yeah.
	Spadroon says, "I'm genuinely surprised that it took this long for the Portland Mass Police resignation.
	I would have thought they'd all be dyed in the wool converts to stick around at this point.
	Still waiting on the US microwave cannon to be deployed.
	Apparently makes your skin feel like it's on fire.
	Imagine how fast it would disperse a riot." Yeah, that's been something that's been around for a while, and yet I've never heard of it being deployed either.
	But yeah, apparently it just makes you feel like you're on fire.
	It agitates the top layer of your screen.
	Oh yeah, the videos they've done.
	It was in 2010 that came out.
	Yeah, it was ages ago, yeah.
	NorthamptonianNight says, look out for the new Kurt Russell film, Escape from Portland 2022.
	Also by a DeezNuts says, hate speech is protected under the First Amendment, Ted, you authoritarian arsehole.
	How in the hell is this guy still in office?
	I would have thought by now either the normal citizens would have recalled him for enabling Antifa to destroy the city, or Antifa themselves would have lynched him for not being progressive enough.
	Well, I mean, they did try.
	You give Antifa credit.
	I mean, they are genuine terrorists.
	They tried it.
	Remember that the alternative to Ted Wheeler was a woman who wore a Mao dress.
	To the election.
	She also did an interview in which she was asked, do you disavow burning down buildings with people inside?
	And she refused to say no.
	So, I mean...
	She refused to say yes.
	If you're a moderate centrist, you've kind of got to vote for Ted Wheeler.
	Like, the interview again and again was just like, yeah, there's people in those buildings.
	If they set fire to it and kill them, will you disavow it?
	And she was like, I don't want to disavow the people starting the fires.
	I'm not the person starting the fires.
	My God.
	Yeah, yeah, okay.
	2Number9 says, wonder who's going to pick up the rights for the new Portland Battle Royale game?
	Who will win the Oppression Victory Royale?
	Good question.
	It's like Wolfenstein.
	Alex Fight says, I don't think Portland realises they're going to create a big tourist boon if they fully disband the police.
	People from all over the country will go there to make good communists without a licence.
	Well, I mean, if there are no police there, what stops, like, roving gangs of Proud Boys going down there with their guns?
	The answer seems to be very little.
	I disavow what you just said, just to be sure.
	No, I'm not endorsing it.
	I'm saying what's stopping it.
	Antifa?
	Exactly.
	Luke says, Ted Wheeler, let Antifar do their thing.
	Also Ted Wheeler, why are they doing it to me?
	Yeah, exactly.
	Student of History says, good on Portland, Riot Patrol, for resigning from the Riot Patrol.
	Shame them and the rest of their people.
	And don't give Portland what they've begged for, Murray Hill Riot Part 2.
	And I'm sure that Ted, his wife and his child, and his wife's boyfriend were all quite terrified of the people finally coming to his house.
	Yeah.
	Matthew Wilson says...
	Harry Thornton says...
	Oh no!
	Don't attack me!
	Police help me!
	No, you cannot leave me!
	Late today, catching the tail end of the first section.
	However, hearing that the riot police in Portland are resigning brings a smile to my face.
	Can't wait for them to come back to the stream and listen to that segment.
	Thank you.
	Israel Hay says, so let me get this straight, lefties.
	Your idea of center-left is to make a coalition of people who are even further left than you in order to recapture the center.
	How, in the name of all that is holy, are people this unbelievably stupid?
	The only bit of good news out of this so far is the leader of the Lib Dems has said he's not looking to do this, but that can change like that, can't it?
	Yeah.
	But that's a great point, though.
	It's like, okay, so, you know, to recapture the center, we're going to rely ourselves on the radical left.
	Okay, Tony Blair.
	Sensible.
	Luke says, Yeah, that's exactly what they are.
	They're all poisoned.
	Yeah.
	Heathcliff says, I've been watching GB News for the past few days now, and it's just so nice.
	It's normal.
	It's normal people with normal optimistic opinions.
	A far cry from the constant fear-mongering of BBC.
	It shows how truly psychotic the left-wing are, and my normie friends are seeing it too.
	That's good.
	Do you want to read out a comment or something while I reload this?
	Did you mess up?
	No, I didn't do anything.
	Okay, Luke Robinson says the left are like...
	I didn't wear the skill ones.
	Luke Robinson again.
	Nothing says democracy like progressives' tactical voting.
	That's exactly right.
	Justin B? That's a great comment.
	With how the Tories have been, I would expect a lot of their voters to be driven away from voting for them, so Boris could actually be destroying his own majority, allowing the centre-left for the far-left parties to get in, unfortunately.
	Yeah.
	I mean, this is the thing.
	What's weird about the Tories is they constantly seem to focus on the idea of the middle ground, like David Cameron used to talk about.
	It's like, yeah, we'll get the Guardian voters.
	They do the based things.
	Middle ground, we'll get the Guardian voters.
	But they do the based things to get the majority of the public, and then when they're in power, they're like, yeah, let's go left a bit, and then we'll get rid of the far right.
	But they just get rid of everyone who's just a Conservative, and they're just like, why the hell would you do that?
	The far right endorse Jeremy Corbyn.
	The far right are literally endorsing Jeremy Corbyn, left, right and centre.
	David Duke did it and Nick Griffin did it.
	And Andrew Anglin from the Daily Storm.
	And he was very clear as well, isn't he?
	Unironically, go for Jeremy Corbyn because he's going to go hardest on the Jews.
	That was his reasoning.
	That was Nick Griffin's too.
	And of course the Labour Party riddled with anti-Semitism scandals.
	75% of Jews in Britain vote Tory for a reason.
	Anyway, Paulie P... Fascism comes out of socialism.
	Fascism comes out of socialism.
	There's no question of it.
	They know their heritage as well.
	They all know it.
	Paulie P says, the Progressive Alliance could call themselves the Socialist Unity Party.
	Oh wait, that was the name of the ruling party in East Germany.
	Yeah, but they'd probably see that as an endorsement.
	They'd probably see that as being a good thing.
	Henry says, Yeah, I mean, I don't want to see the end of the union, but...
	I'm not happy about it either, but to be honest, you won me round with the idea of, hang on, if we get rid of the Scottish sheets, then all of a sudden, England and Labour can never win.
	Right, okay, that might be worse.
	Not just that, the Lib Dems can never win.
	Sacrifice Scotland to kill Labour.
	I mean, it's a tempting offer.
	Well, like I said, I'm not for the breakup of the UK, but I'm not going to weep if it happens, because...
	I'm going to weep for the Scottish people living under the SNP. No, they vote for it.
	They vote for it.
	Yeah, there's that.
	Feel free to flee down to England if you want.
	I mean it.
	Defect.
	Well, they will take refugees from Scotland.
	Yeah.
	Provided you vote.
	As long as you vote Conservative, yeah.
	Not socialist.
	Yeah.
	I'm fed up of leftists referring to the centre of it somewhere near them politically.
	Look at the public voting records.
	Conservatives are the centrist according to the British public.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	Absolutely.
	James says, I work in Amsterdam.
	It's both very rich, very pro-EU community.
	You would often see the People's Vote group peddling out pro-EU nonsense in the town.
	I had many funny debates with them on my lunch break.
	They even held a small march in the old town yesterday.
	Talking to my colleagues and patients who live here this morning, many of them said that they either didn't vote as they thought they were safe or that voted Lib Dem, To be honest with you, the Conservative Alliance basically exists as it is.
	Sure, I mean, kind of.
	But what's the interesting thing?
	I mean, we've got good conservatives now.
	I don't want to just, you know, harp on endlessly and be like, oh, the conservatives left us, because they're not.
	They do have some good people.
	Some of them are.
	You know, Liz Truss, Kimmy Batenock, have we spoken about?
	But it's just weird how they're unable to speak outside of a leftist frame.
	Yes.
	Apart from those individuals, obviously, they're just...
	But that's why they're constantly being called leftists, because they adopt all of the leftist presuppositions and then run with them and try and make their arguments from a left-wing position.
	It's like, what are you doing?
	Make it from a conservative position.
	Like Rishi Sunak, thinking he wouldn't have to justify the cost of going green.
	Why?
	But anyway, James says, this Lib Dem result is a good thing.
	It will wake the Tories to the fact they should be conservative.
	A two-party system like this will make it obvious for them that the lefties are combining to become the Democratic Party, and hopefully this will force the Tories to be as conservative as the Republicans.
	Yeah.
	Honestly, if they rename themselves the Democrats, that might actually work as well.
	Because, no, think about it.
	I mean, like, Labour's dead in the water.
	The Lib Dems are the Dem part there.
	Yeah, yeah, no, that's true.
	Heathcliff says, I've been watching GB News for the past few days.
	Paulie says, the BBC is unbiased.
	That's the BBC that's hired a producer called Guy Burgess, who's one of the Cambridge spy ringmen defected to the Soviet Union.
	The late Dennis Thatcher, husband of Margaret, always called BBC reporters leftists and pinkos.
	That's because they have been.
	All the way back to Orwell's day, they've always been leftists and pinkos.
	Justin says, the list of brands to stop buying for...
	What does pinko mean?
	It means communist sympathizer.
	He's a liberal who's a communist sympathizer.
	I've been watching a lot of General Schwarzkopf.
	I don't know how you say it.
	He's an American general.
	He's a legend.
	I should really show you some of his speeches.
	Yeah, you will.
	It's really entertaining.
	There was one speech I watched the other day, which he was like, and when we were thinking about going into Vietnam, a bunch of commie pinkos were thinking about siding with the North, and we were like, no, no, no, we just ignored all of them.
	Based.
	But the list of brands to stop buying for sticking their nose into politics when they shouldn't is getting too long to remember.
	Yeah, I'm surprised that no one's made a website so far listing them.
	Ty Buffett says, The problem with the companies bowing to leftist pressure is I think it's more about cost-benefit analysis for them than being fully woke themselves.
	The leftists raise a disproportionate level of fervour online and it makes it seem that they're a powerful bloc, but most conservatives are not plugged in or won't reciprocate with the boycott themselves.
	The only colour companies care about is green, not the whole rainbow.
	This is a falsehood.
	I'm sorry, this is just not true.
	The thing you have to remember is that companies, a company as an abstract entity, theoretically, the only interest they have is money, but the people staffing the companies and running the companies at the top of these companies are human beings.
	And they are affected by what they consider to be moral forces.
	And they do exercise these moral forces as much as they can within their email.
	I mean, you can see this in places like Disney, like this Cruella film, right?
	No one wanted it, no one's interested in it, and it didn't make money.
	It lost like $20 million or something.
	And they make it anyway because it's got a moral, like...
	I was going to say virtue, but that's not what it is.
	But it's got moral weight behind it, and that's why they make it.
	They will do things that cost them money for moral reasons, because the people running these companies are human beings.
	Luke says, The Metro have been publishing half a dozen articles daily minimum about GB News.
	They are really scared that someone has deviated from the group thing.
	Yeah, and that's good.
	The more focus, because they can't just tear them down.
	They could do that to us, they can't do that to GB News, because of who Andrew Neil is, his conservative connections, and all these sort of things.
	So Andrew Neal has actually, and he, as we've seen today, has taken the brunt of their punch and pushed back on it, and has actually gained ground back on them.
	And that's the first victory of conservatives over the left's, like, agitation machine that I've seen in ever, you know, to be honest.
	I can't think of another time when that's actually happened.
	So Andrew Neal has actually taken the gut punch and then slugged back and done well.
	On the cultural side, yeah.
	I mean, Liz Truss saying women have vaginas up until now was the best, which...
	But no, this is an actual L for the left.
	They mustered everything they could muster, they failed to bring down GB News, and now the companies have backtracked on their left-wing position.
	That's an L for the left.
	That's not just holding the ground, that's an actual L. So that's good.
	So yeah, good for GB News.
	Gordon of Khartoum says, Donald Trump exclusive interview on GB News, perhaps?
	We can dream.
	Yeah, that would be great.
	That would be great.
	Yeah, that would be great.
	Heathcliff says, a point about GB News, demographics.
	Advertisers desperately want the 25 to 49 demographic.
	They don't care about the kiddies on Twitter.
	When the ratings show that all the more affluent people watch GB News, advertisers will break down the doors to give them their money.
	This is the thing as well.
	There are no young people watching TV. So if your voter base is meant to be like, oh, a 25-year-old communist, they're not there.
	They're not watching Sky News.
	All you've got left are the boomers who watch TV, in which case, whip them up.
	Yeah.
	Free Will says, mind you, with IKEA having fascism in its past and socialism as its current ideology, should we be surprised that they spy on their employees?
	Or they don't believe in rights, as we understand them.
	No, I mean it as well.
	What, he was a fascist?
	What are you...
	They don't believe in rights.
	They think that power is the originator of rights.
	And so if they're the ones with the power, which they are of their employees, then they're justified in spying on them because they create the employee right in their view.
	You know, I wouldn't do that because I think that people have natural rights because I'm some sort of throwback.
	The goddamn socialist.
	I know.
	Anyway, Ross says, he's linked a petition and says, please make aware of the petition on the podcast.
	We're very concerned NHS staff who doesn't want to have to be coerced into having a vaccination.
	We'll have to have a look at it another time, 'cause we're running out of time.
	Zen Chan says, "Hey Carl, first time being able "to comment on the stream over a month, "thanks to starting an apprenticeship." So this comment will be a bit of a big one.
	Well, congratulations on starting an apprenticeship.
	That's good.
	In response to yesterday's stream, you imply that people who are child free, I knew this was gonna be controversial, Do you realise that people can be in a relationship and just not have kids?
	They still have responsibilities to their partner?
	Yeah, but their partner's an adult.
	You know, their partner should be able to take care of themselves.
	A child is a responsibility that is a different category, a different kind of responsibility.
	Unless your partner's mentally ill, but that's...
	Well, yeah, of course, unless your partner's got some sort of severe disability.
	It's a very small section of the population.
	Yeah, but your partner should be able to take care of themselves.
	But second point, I don't want anybody to take care of me when I'm old.
	Yeah, but that's not really a choice.
	I mean, nobody wants...
	Well, hang on.
	But what if you can't, you know, do your own stuff if you need help?
	Well, he tells us now, and I totally endorse this statement, by the way.
	If I can't function without assistance, if I can't wipe my own arse, then in the words of Bobby B, give me something for the pain and let me die.
	And I agree, if I'm ever in an incapacitated state, turn off the life support, smother me, whatever it is.
	You know, I don't want to be a vegetable.
	What if it's not that, if your memory starts going?
	Well, that's the thing.
	And even then, even if that's the case, that's not for everyone, right?
	That may well be how I and Zen feel about it, but there are going to be people who want to be taken care of because they're in constant pain or whatever it is and they can't look after themselves.
	But also, it's not just your vegetable or not.
	Like, there are people in the in-between space in which they're sort of still there, but they're starting to disappear.
	It's like, well, what, do you just kill them then?
	Like...
	I don't know.
	But it says, also, stop the cope of, but raising a child makes you happy.
	Yes, brain chemicals go burr, but other things can trigger this response.
	That's not what it is.
	That's not what it is.
	I don't think I'll go into the detail of it now, but basically, there's a difference between being happy, as in having an immediate pleasure.
	Just another kuma.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Having kids is your kuma.
	No, that's the point.
	And having a kind of way of centering yourself in the universe that gives you satisfaction.
	Yeah.
	These aren't the same things, and they're very, very different outcomes.
	And they leave you chasing very, very different things.
	And I'll talk about it in another video sometime.
	Chris says, but I appreciate the comment, though.
	I like pushback.
	I love the idea of you getting married and having kids as the kumarism.
	That's really funny.
	Not in a mocking way, but I love the idea of that being a meme.
	Trust me, it's not.
	You have to give up kumarism, but that's good for you.
	Chris Wall says, The creative people submitting videos and comments on the site push me to keep up my creative work.
	Thank you all.
	Yeah, honestly, we love the video comments when people are doing something interesting with them.
	They're really funny.
	And to the listener, draw, write, sing, or dance, or whatever you may say, whatever you have to say, for tomorrow can build on today.
	That's nice.
	Kyle says, Hey Kyle, my wife's parents suggested that when my wife and I have kids, to send them in Southeast Asia for a few years.
	I'm heavily considering it to protect them from becoming woke in Scotland, and the extra bonus they'll probably know two or three languages from a young age.
	I was wondering whether you think this is a good idea or if my wife and I should just defend them against wokeness ourselves.
	Going where, sorry?
	Southeast Asia.
	I don't know, but Voltaire's goes to be the guy to ask, I suppose.
	He'll spend his time in Singapore.
	When you say Southeast Asia, there could be a lot of places.
	Well, yeah.
	I honestly couldn't advise, and I wouldn't want to.
	But if you don't, then yeah, you're going to have to deprogram them personally.
	But it's not impossible, because they don't know, and you are the ultimate authority figure to them.
	So if you explain that, no, this is wrong for these reasons and it's just something that's going to have to deal with, that'll deal.
	It was really funny.
	My wife and daughter were calling me a sexist yesterday.
	You were like, yes.
	I was just like, yeah.
	But the thing is, that wasn't an argument.
	And so it hadn't disproven the point I'd made.
	I can't remember what it was either.
	There should be men's only spaces and women's only spaces.
	No, but why can't, like, carrying the coffin at a funeral, right?
	I was like, no, that's for the men to do.
	Well, why can't a woman do it?
	I was like, okay, well, the obvious answer is a coffin's heavy, right?
	I mean, that's, no, I've carried a coffin, and they are heavy, right?
	Because they've got a body in it, and they're made of wood, so they are heavy.
	Possible.
	But it's also just traditionally, that's what the men do, right?
	And the women, you know, throw flowers or do other things, weep, mourn, you know.
	And at weddings, you've got like, you know, bridesmaids and grooms and things like this.
	And they're specific things.
	And they're like, oh, you know, you're being sexist.
	Yes.
	Yes, this is something for the men and you should leave that alone.
	And then the men will leave your things alone.
	And then everyone knows where they belong, don't they?
	No response?
	No.
	No, I won it, yeah.
	Yeah, okay.
	Of course.
	Because I know you're like, yes, I won an argument with my daughter.
	And my wife.
	Both at the same time.
	And your wife.
	Okay, fair enough.
	That's a victory.
	That's a double win.
	This is a double win, okay?
	I'm happy with this.
	Sargon of a cat.
	BTFSOS. Exactly.
	Daughter and wife.
	And look, if you're not BTFOing your daughter and wife, come and see me, okay?
	I'll help you.
	You're going to set up, I don't know, like a conference or something.
	How can I win this argument with my wife?
	Yeah.
	That'll be what I do on Cameo.
	Sign up to my OnlyFans where I teach you how to own your wife.
	Anyway, I love that bombshell.
	It's time to end the show.
	So, if you want to check out more from us, especially the new video you did, go to LotusEasers.com, the YouTube channel, or the website for our unbiased media.
	Totally unbiased.
	Oh no, we're biased.
	We're just biased in favour of what we like.
	No, but that's the thing.
	It's the claim of like, oh, GBNUs are biased, and it's like, yeah, so is everyone else.
	Yeah, you can go to the mainstream if you want their bias, or you can come and sign up on Lotasease.com if you want our bias.
	So there we go.
	That's how that works.
	But we've got loads of great stuff.
	It's really worth it.
	Well, our bias is not to demoralize, you know.
	Yeah, it's not to destroy Britain, if that's okay.
	Yeah, anyway.
	So, otherwise, we'll end the show, so we're going to go do some more recording after this.
	But thank you for tuning in.
	We'll be back tomorrow, Monday, 1 o'clock.
	Thank you.
	Goodbye.
