	Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters for the 31st December 2021.
	I am joined by John.
	Hello Lotus Eaters.
	And today we're going to be talking about COVID treatment based on your race because apparently it has now come true at least in New York and has been propagated as an idea throughout the UK. Police are still shirking the grooming gang duty.
	It's still happening.
	Still happening.
	Eight years on.
	Specifically, Rotherham.
	And also, AOC fleeing New York, because she's having a bit of a run.
	But that story has ended up going deeper into the situation in Scotland as well, which I didn't expect it to, but we are.
	But some things to mention first.
	So the first thing to mention, if we get this up, is another Genealogy of Wokism.
	So this is yours, so I'll let you sell it.
	This is not mine.
	This is John Tangley's.
	Oh, John Tangley.
	I saw John and went, oh, that'll do.
	Who's one of our external writers.
	And yes, I haven't read it myself either, but I'm assured it's very good.
	And there is an audio track for Silver and Gold team members to go and have a listen as well.
	Here's the next one.
	We have the Staggering Exclusivity of Inclusivity.
	That one is yours.
	That one is mine, and it's great, and you should totally read it.
	No, I think this is the most obvious contradiction in book politics.
	Other John, not this John, not the reader John, but podcast John, put it in a really good way the other day when we were talking about Games Workshop.
	He said, Games Workshop is for everyone.
	Now get out!
	And this just explores that in more detail.
	The Austrian painter isn't allowed to play with miniatures.
	Yeah.
	Okay.
	And the last thing to mention here being the Gold Tier Zoom call.
	So we'll be doing that today at 4pm after the podcast.
	That is for Gold Tier members only, which we usually just hang out and chat.
	We'll be drinking.
	You'll be drinking.
	Last thing to mention is...
	Let's go.
	And so...
	The Soviets dispatched a small group of intelligence officers to a Russian village about 50 miles from Moscow.
	Their instructions...
	Instigate anti-Semitism and gauge the villagers' reaction.
	What?
	So it says they went around at night kicking over tombstones of Jews and putting swastikas on them and then gauge the reaction of the locals.
	Officers reported back that the locals were shocked and frightened by the incident, but among a small number of Russians, they reported that the Nazi symbols and slogans also triggered latent anti-Semitism and inspired them to become anti-Jewish activists on their own.
	What?
	So apparently if you go into a random Russian village in the Soviet times, that's what you could do.
	And they then go on to put a load of neo-Nazis throughout Western Germany and around the world up to putting swastikas on synagogues and then running away, leaving them with the ticket to get done.
	False flag swastikas.
	It's not like we've ever seen that in the modern age.
	You know, like the FBI setting a terrorist up and the rest of them being like, look, we've done a good job.
	So the Soviets went out with their agents, got a lot of people with, like, Nazi sympathies, and then egged them on to go and do this.
	So then they could publish about all the anti-Semitism on the West.
	But the way they did it is by doing that first.
	Yeah, so they were experimenting on their own population.
	Yes.
	They wanted antisemitism.
	The funniest part is they went to the East Germans, the intelligence services, and they said they wanted nothing to do with it.
	And it was because the guy in charge, his father was Jewish.
	So they were like, hey, would you like to do antisemitism?
	And he was like, no!
	So if you want to read along with that, or you want to get prepared for the nonsense that will be that book club about all the Soviet intelligence active measures...
	That's a sneak peek for what we're working on.
	Yeah, god, it's mad.
	You heard me laughing, that's why.
	Anyway, let's start off.
	Sorry.
	COVID treatment based on your race.
	So this is something that has been bubbling up for a while.
	I remember, and I cannot find it for the life of me, we ended up doing a podcast a while back where someone got a text message saying that the vaccine rollout might be done on the basis of race.
	Yes, it was like a tip, wasn't it, from last year or so?
	Yeah, so whoever sent that in, if you can send it in again, because I couldn't find it.
	But that is not where we're starting off.
	We're starting off first with some of the segregation with regards to people who are vaccinated and who are not.
	Okay.
	So...
	This is Public Health Scotland COVID-19 statistical report, and in here they list, for example, focusing on pregnant women first, 25% of women delivering in August 2021 had received any COVID-19 vaccination prior to delivery, with 15% of women having received two doses of vaccination.
	So, keep this number in your mind.
	About 15% of Scottish women who are pregnant, going into hospital, are vaccinated.
	That means, what is that?
	Fully vaccinated.
	Fully vaccinated.
	And that means that 85% have got no vaccine.
	85% being unvaccinated.
	So, let's go to the next one.
	And this is a story I got from someone who sent it me on Twitter who told me about it, which is that the COVID booster jabs, we desperately need to have people going getting their stuff, except this only came out in October that pregnant women apparently should go and get booster jabs.
	As you can see in this article at the time, they were saying women aged 40 and over were pregnant.
	And of course, it's not most pregnant women.
	And then that amount was lowered.
	So it's not a surprise.
	It's not just vaccine hesitancy from pregnant women.
	It's the fact that they were also advised not to until very, very recently.
	So let's go to the next link, which is from Scottish Government.
	Update about COVID-19.
	98% of pregnant women in the ICUs with COVID-19 are unvaccinated.
	We also know that all women who have died during pregnancy or up to six weeks of birth, 88% of them were unvaccinated.
	88% compared to 85% were unvaccinated, so pretty much in proportion there.
	With the ICU one over proportion, that's true.
	In light of the above, the speed at which Omicron variants is spreading through communities and the safety of pregnant women and their babies taken into account, it has been nationally agreed that fertility treatment for the unvaccinated women will be deferred with immediate effect.
	What?!
	Based on that statistic...
	Remember, the statistic here being that 98% of pregnant women in the ICU are unvaccinated.
	Okay, a little bit of opiate representation, but not much.
	88% of those who die are unvaccinated.
	85% of the population of pregnant women are unvaccinated.
	So in line with the proportion of people, and yet, if you don't have the vaccine, no fertility treatment.
	My understanding is that fertility treatment is not cheap either.
	No.
	My understanding is it's extraordinarily expensive and people put a lot of money into making it work.
	So to then be told, which is an absolute slap in the face, that you can't have it until you've been vaccinated or until the government changes their mind, is very arbitrary and cruel.
	Because 88% of the deaths are unvaccinated pregnant women.
	85% of pregnant women are unvaccinated.
	But two and two together?
	No, we're just going to ban unvaccinated pregnant women or women engaging in fertility treatment here.
	Doesn't really make sense, but whatever.
	And they're continuing here.
	Women who are within 12 weeks of having their second COVID dose or have had their booster will continue their treatment as normal.
	So as long as you are complying.
	Who are within 12 weeks of having their second vaccine dose.
	Yeah, don't really know why that period.
	So does that mean once they go over that, then they can't continue their treatment?
	Presumably, they would then want to get the booster.
	Right.
	That's how the line of events work.
	Okay, so they're basically using IVF, or using fertility treatment, as a threat, as a stick with which to beat you into getting a booster vaccine.
	Is that an accurate assessment?
	There is healthcare until there's not, with free healthcare, and this is an issue where there is not anymore.
	Apparently this also applies to private treatment, so even if you pay to go private, then also too bad, because they use NHS clinics.
	That's terrible.
	Funniest part in this page here.
	Number three.
	It is our personal choice to get vaccinated.
	Why are you forcing us to get vaccinated?
	As in, like, frequently asked questions.
	They respond.
	It is still your personal choice as to whether to have the vaccine.
	All we are saying is that we cannot proceed with treatment without evidence of vaccination due to the risks involved.
	These people are...
	This is really outrageous.
	Yeah.
	I couldn't get over how this is real.
	And it is.
	And they're just like, yeah, it's still your personal choice.
	And this is in Scotland.
	This is in Scotland.
	But apparently, as they say, it's national.
	So I don't know if that means national is cross to K. Or national to Scotland.
	Or national to Scotland.
	It's not particularly clear in the text, to be honest.
	I believe it's a devolved competency, isn't it?
	But there's another aspect to this.
	If we go to the next one, there's an application for...
	Or devolved incompetency, in this case.
	For taking part in this.
	The data collection form, as they put it there.
	And in here, of course, they also ask you for your ethnic group, along with all the other information.
	And they say in here you can enter the code for your ethnic group, because it's coded now.
	Please see back of cover for guidance.
	And there's like a big long list of all the ethnic groups and their associated codes.
	Right.
	And if we move on, we'll go to the next one here, in which we have a quote from the government again, in which you may remember a long time ago, there was discussion about whether or not to have non-whites receive priority vaccination treatment by the UK. And apparently the UK government did actually go ahead with vaccine coverage being priority in the non-white areas.
	Mm-hmm.
	Good vaccine coverage in BAME communities will be the most important factor within a vaccine program in reducing inequalities for this group.
	Prioritization of persons with underlying health conditions will also provide for greater vaccination of BAME communities who are disproportionately affected by such health conditions.
	And as I mentioned before, we did have a text message from GP saying they were going to focus on Bain.
	Well, one of the problems we have, one of the broader problems we have with the NHS is that they are more and more prioritizing health inequalities over health care.
	And obviously, this is the same problem that you have when you apply it to the economy.
	The ultimate health equality is everyone is dying of everything, which is no health care.
	You can take the Steelman argument, of course, that they could say, well, BAME people as they use, because they don't use Yookumukumur anymore, apparently.
	Gave up on that one.
	That they have a higher chance of death because of reasons, and therefore we're going to prioritize them.
	And, okay, but that is illegal.
	The Equality Act 2010, it's not allowed.
	I mean, just on a legal basis here, not even going to talk about morals at all, because we're going to throw morals out the window in a minute, because of where that follows.
	I think we already have so far, looking at what Scotland's doing.
	But if we move on, this was done as coverage in the UK, but in the United States, apparently they went even further with this.
	So Vermont to give minority residents vaccine priority.
	This is in April 2021.
	How do you like that?
	Your healthcare is dependent on the colour of your skin.
	Welcome to 2021.
	This was also in Montana, apparently.
	Starting Thursday, Vermont explicitly gave black adults and people from other minority communities priority status for vaccinations.
	It follows Montana, which in January announced that Native Americans and other peoples of colour...
	Okay, so that's a lot of words to say.
	White people back of the queue for vaccines.
	Yes, it's just no whites.
	And the argument being because they're at higher risk of complications from COVID-19, would be allowed to receive the first vaccine, or at least be able to get it before any white people in the state of similar status, because I assumed it was being done by age group before.
	The really weird thing is they also say it will be a short-term advantage since Vermont opens COVID inoculations to all adults by April 19th.
	So like two weeks later.
	So you've got a two-week separation in between we give it to people with brown skin and then the whiteys get it in two weeks from now.
	What was the reason for that?
	Why two weeks?
	Why not a month?
	Why not forever?
	All of these things are arbitrary.
	And you do have to wonder in this case as well.
	If you were a black person or a person of colour who is sceptical of the government or sceptical of the vaccine, then this is exactly the sort of thing that would make you more sceptical.
	Why does the government want me to have the vaccine before white people?
	There are some arguments put by that, I think.
	I prefer the term...
	I really don't like the term person of colour, if I can help it.
	No, I despise it.
	I've been using people with brown skin when I can, because it makes a mockery of the whole thing, the fact that it sounds so ugly.
	And it's just like, why are we using these terms?
	Yeah, it's a ridiculous term.
	This is a weird conversation.
	It's better than Yook McGamur, that's for sure, which the Guardian tried to do, instead of BAME. I don't know if you remember that.
	I do, yeah.
	Anyway, so moving on, let's go to the next one, in which we have the story from Rush today.
	Non-whites to receive priority for limited COVID pill.
	This is in New York State.
	So, we've already had the discussions about, let's just have healthcare on the basis of race, and we all laughed at this, and said, are they actually serious?
	That's crazy.
	Then the NHS apparently just did it, and then in Vermont and Montana, they actually went ahead with doing it as well, on an open basis of just saying, no whiteys, not getting your vaccines.
	And now in New York State, as you see there, 31st of December, they've got a limited number of anti-COVID pills, and therefore whitey ain't getting it, because whitey has a lot of chance of dying.
	That's the argument.
	They say in here, the New York State Department of Health appeared to announce this week that non-white New Yorkers would receive priority over whites in receiving extremely limited COVID-19 therapies for people at risk.
	And some people might think, ah, Russia today?
	Well, we can just go to their source, and if we go to the next one, it is a document from New York State's Health Department.
	And they say in here...
	For the COVID-19 oral antiviral treatments authorized, you must be under your eligibility.
	Ages 12 years and older, tested positive for COVID, and that's all sensible, and then some other things that are just sensible.
	And then they say, or you can have a medical condition or other factors that increase the risk of severe illness.
	Non-white race or Hispanic slash Latino ethnicity should be considered as a risk factor.
	As long-standing systemic health and social inequalities have contributed to the increased risk of severe illness and death.
	So basically, they're literally saying if you are non-white, that's equivalent to being ill.
	Yes.
	Having a medical condition.
	And they'll argue percentages of deaths and whatnot, obviously.
	And the thing on my mind as well is the way they word that, though, is not as the British worded it in the sense of, like, well, people with brown skin are more likely to have heart disease or something like that.
	Instead, they went with, no, social inequalities.
	So we're going to prioritize medical treatment due to systemic health and social inequalities.
	Oh, we do that in the UK as well.
	The NHS talks about health inequalities all of the time, and they mean exactly this kind of thing.
	Sure, but the way they also put it, systemic health, like it's the health system is actually racist.
	The definition of health inequalities is all about systemic factors.
	Oh, it's gotten to the NHS as well.
	It's not just the Americans, sadly.
	But I like that they're at least explicit about it here in the United States of saying, well, that is what the situation is.
	Oh, God.
	Anyway, let's move on.
	So if we go to the next link here, there is the response from sensible people saying, how is the race or ethnicity of a patient a legitimate criteria for the allocation of scarce clinical resources, like drugs or hospital beds, by a government entity in 2021 in the USA? Yeah.
	And also, is it constitutional?
	Probably not.
	I would guess that the Supreme Court would find this unconstitutional.
	Eventually.
	In the same way that if someone does take it to court in the UK, they will win because the Equality Act 2010 says the government can't do that.
	In Scotland, yes.
	In England it also applies.
	Right, yes.
	I mean, these things are all on the books.
	The governments of our nations just ignore them until they are sued.
	I mean, you may remember various organizations in the UK running schemes in which they said whites cannot apply.
	Yes.
	They continued doing it, and some of them have continued doing it to this day.
	And people continued suing and winning.
	Until they get the suit.
	Like the police officer in Chester Shire who sued the police and won.
	Yes.
	Because you were discriminating against me for being a white male.
	Absolutely.
	And V related the case, which I think is still ongoing, of we reported a while back on the NHS releasing a statement that was essentially anti-white.
	And as a Romanian immigrant, this Chapin V's article basically sued the NHS for it, and that is ongoing.
	So yes, you can take legal action against these things, and you can push back against it.
	And it's something that if you're in a position to do so, you should definitely consider.
	There's the funny thing here, of course.
	Steelman position, well, you know, these groups have a higher chance of death, therefore we're going to focus on them with the resources.
	Except, of course, as I mentioned, we criminalize this sort of thing.
	It is not legal to do such things.
	But just for a second, as a thought experiment, let's run the logic as it runs for, well, these people have a higher chance of death, therefore we'll give them privileges.
	We will give them the special needs of this racial group that they need.
	Well, also, should these racial groups then have accepting special restrictions, as well as these special privileges?
	Because remember, they are a group with a higher chance of death, therefore we put special restrictions on them, and therefore we can save more black lives in the struggle for race war or whatever BLM are chanting about these days.
	And if we go to the next one, we have some ideas, because of course Canada is a crazy place, and Lauren Chen responding here to Quebec starting a new curfew from 10pm to 5am.
	Yeah, they had a curfew for a long, long time.
	I remember Viva Fry reporting on it.
	It seemed nuts.
	Yeah, and as you see Lauren saying here, 81% of the population aged 5 and over are fully vaccinated in Canada, and yet they want to institute a curfew.
	A curfew on this.
	You're not going to be allowed outside of your house.
	Well, why not make the same argument and be like, well, you know, we've got scarce resources.
	They must apply these things to help the people with brown skin in our society.
	But also, they're all at high risk of dying.
	So we'll issue a curfew on the brown people in our society so they are not as high risk to catching COVID. The line of logic does run there.
	And one also has to wonder, how much more at risk do they have to be?
	Does it even have to be beyond to the level of statistical significance?
	It seems like this is just a carte blanche to create extraordinarily arbitrary, tyrannical and unfair laws and principles for the distribution of medical care.
	And if that's what we're paying our taxes for, then I think the NHS and other such institutions are definitely losing their shine.
	Is this the future we want to go to, where your loved one could die because they're the wrong race?
	Just weren't high enough on the list?
	I don't think so.
	But you could also be quite progressive about it, of course.
	And I thought about this idea of, you know, run the same logic and you could end up arguing for people with brown skin should be indoors between 10 and 5am because they're not allowed to go out during the night.
	And we go to the next one.
	There's an Onion video about this a while back in the same vein.
	Oh, yeah.
	Which I love, which was the debate about having gay people in the army and the gays are too precious to risk in combat, says U.S. General in this obvious fake news piece.
	This is, yes, a parody article.
	And the U.S. General's just like, look, they're just too precious.
	We cannot risk them in combat.
	And, well, you know, our black and brown communities of color or Yukimikimers or whatever other labels we're going to put on people...
	They're too precious to die of COVID. So not only are we going to prioritize the entire NHS or entire medical services, there should be a curfew, you shouldn't be allowed to go to work, all the rest.
	You see how this logic doesn't really make sense, but instead, okay, right.
	Yeah, why is it that the same logic only works when it's privileges and not restrictions?
	It points to something underlying in that debate there, doesn't it?
	Do the reverse as well.
	Let's make a new virus where it specifically targets white people and they're dying at disproportionate rates.
	Okay, we will prioritise all medical treatment only for white people in the hospitals.
	What's going to be the response?
	I don't think it'll be very pleasant.
	I think systemic racism might be a term that people start throwing around, which they should be already, but okay.
	Yeah.
	In other racial news, because I thought I'd tie this up with something else I saw that is amazing, which is here, a school in, I think we believe this is Minnesota, decided to vote for its non-white teachers to get a pay rise.
	Only the non-white teachers.
	No, not the white teachers, they don't deserve one.
	But you get paid according to what, exactly?
	Presumably what you can produce, but no, instead, your skin tone.
	The board voted to amend district policy so that non-white teachers only may receive additional stipends to become mentors to other non-white colleagues.
	The new policy will also have the district placing American Indian educators at sites with other American Indian educators and educators of colour at sites with other educators of colour.
	Blatant segregation.
	I have to think about that for a minute.
	So, this is a mentor scheme, so teacher can help other teacher become better teacher.
	Makes sense.
	Instead, no, we throw in racial politics, and now we have it so the only kind of mentors you can have are of the same race.
	because presumably they thought about this before and they ended up with white mentors of of well teachers with brown skin and therefore this looks bad and is racist so they now block the white men white teachers from offering mentorships and instead they've segregated off the teachers to only train each other never the races shall mix school boards are mad in america and the only people who can get paid for this are people of the same race hmm There's a quote from some people at this meeting who are speaking.
	I don't know why.
	I don't know why you're so lonely about that sort of thing, but okay.
	To have a support system in place for them is not to segregate them, even though that's what you're doing.
	It is absolutely to support them, said Aaron Roberts.
	This is one of the guys at the meeting who voted on this.
	He's like, I'm not doing segregation, it's support.
	I can absolutely see people in the Jim Crow South saying, oh, segregation is good because it's supporting people by having them among their own race.
	It's exactly the same kind of argument.
	Also, have you ever looked at the demographics of a school in London?
	Tower Hamlets.
	Have you ever looked at the demographics of that?
	I have not, no.
	We did on the show, and 9% of Tower Hamlets schools are white British.
	Like, what was it, 90%?
	I think it was Indian, something like that, John.
	Do you remember?
	Wow.
	So the same argument applies, that these students need support, and therefore should be moved to white-only schools, or white-only schools should be set up around entire hamlets for them to attend, so they can get the support they need, as Eren says.
	You listen to yourself.
	He continues, it is not about trying to throw the few BIPOC individuals, again, another term I can't stand with all the alphabets, so that's, what is it?
	Black or indigenous people of colour?
	Pick a term.
	Just pick one, at least.
	That's all of the terms, basically.
	It's not about trying to throw a few browns, individuals, into one building.
	It's about showing them that they aren't alone.
	As if they've never seen another person with the same skin tone and then...
	In the era of the internet, they think, oh, there are no other Americans with the same ethnic background as me.
	Wait, there are other black people?
	But the thing is, right, there is an extent to which you can argue...
	Yeah, okay, it could be lonely if you are one person in a minority of a different culture.
	If you're a token from South Park.
	Well, right, okay.
	I mean, I remember when I was in Japan, and most of the stuff you're doing are surrounded by Japanese people, and yes, there are elements of that experience which are isolating and lonely, but that's because there's an enormous cultural and linguistic barrier there, not because of a racial barrier necessarily.
	And here, like, the whole point of America is that all of these people are Americans, and so they share this culture through which they can interact with each other, and to the best of my knowledge, that does happen.
	And Americans do have friends of other races, it's not...
	Don't you know black people should be a separate cultural group within the United States?
	Well, according to the writer of this article, anyway.
	We shouldn't have a melting pot where people interact.
	No, no, instead we shall keep the racists separate.
	Say, the anti-racists.
	The state law says districts must develop mentoring programs and that they may include race-based stipends.
	I've also written at the end there as one of the quotes.
	Because, well, it is law as well.
	That's the messed up thing here.
	Apparently state law supports them.
	So they'll have to go to the federal law or presumably appeal to equality law within the state if the local parents or the other teachers who have now got a pay deduction actually want to fight that.
	And if we go to the last link here, just to end this off, which is Libs of TikTok also has all the speeches in case you want to go and listen to this absolute insanity.
	And the support being offered by segregated schools, which...
	I really want to get the audio clip of this segregation today.
	Segregation tomorrow.
	Segregation forever.
	You know that speech?
	It's a very famous one.
	One of the governors arguing for segregation.
	I'm just going to put it...
	Just overlay it over the so-called anti-racists.
	I might join one of these meetings and just make it my ringtone.
	Leave the phone on the desk and be like, oh, sorry, another call.
	And just side with them the whole time.
	I don't know what to say.
	What a hellhole, but that's the future.
	Let's end that there.
	Yes, so I'm now going to cheer you up, of course, with...
	Yeah, no, I'm not.
	That's a lie.
	That's a blatant lie.
	This is not a cheerful segment.
	A colossal black pill might be the best way of describing it.
	It turns out that the grooming gang scandal has been continuing almost unabated since the story was first broken.
	If there is some light to be found in all of this, it's that some excellent investigative reporting has been done by The Times in particular on this subject.
	And shout out to one of the last real investigative journalists remaining in British media, namely George Greenwood, for bringing this information to light.
	And here's his profile there.
	He's quite proud of his unreasonable persistence and activity in his investigations, branded so by the people he's investigating, which is, I think, the highest accolade.
	George recently posted a long thread collating the work of months and years investigating the shambolic response by police to the grooming gang scandal.
	And let's just go through his findings.
	I'm going to read it through.
	Police have been accused of failing the victims of grooming gangs after an investigation found the force at the centre of the Rotherham scandal was still not recording the ethnicities of suspected child abusers.
	This is years after we finally got the whole thing exposed, years after the Jay Report, still not doing it.
	No, they've been specifically told multiple times to do it and they're not doing it.
	South Yorkshire Police blocked the release of their internal intelligence document that set out serious failings in how it handled child sexual offences for 14 months, that I first requested in August 2020.
	It took two separate regulatory complaints to force disclosure.
	So he's done the work, is what he's saying, to try and crowbar this information about police incompetence out of their...
	But it's also very telling.
	He didn't just put a Freedom of Information request in.
	He then presumably had them tell him to go F himself twice, and he had to put in two regulatory complaints to even get anywhere with this.
	Yes.
	I mean, real levels of institutional resistance to him finding out what's going on.
	Yeah.
	It's not exactly an open and transparent society, is it?
	The document showed officers routinely failed to log the ethnicity of those suspected of sexually abusing minors, with the highest failure rate being in the Rotherham district itself, where in 67% of cases it went unrecorded.
	Interesting.
	This is despite race being a key issue in the original scandal, with the Jay Review finding some child protection professionals were reluctant to address the hidden crime pattern for fear of being thought racist.
	If you point out that the man who, well, the nonce, is Asian, therefore you're a racist.
	But they are all Asian.
	All the guys with the rest of the day, Governor, are all Asian.
	But don't put it down on the sheet.
	Why not?
	What are you hiding?
	It's quite remarkable.
	Why is the fear of being thought racist so crippling on this level that it prevents the police from tackling child rape?
	It's incredible.
	Jay advised that agencies should acknowledge the suspected model of localized grooming of young white girls by men of Pakistani heritage instead of being inhibited by the fear of affecting community relations.
	And again, this is a review, I believe, in the Times.
	was the J report that broke this.
	They're not exactly raging, frothing racists, and it's so obvious that they can come out and say that it is men of Pakistani heritage.
	We all know it if you've been following this scandal.
	It's one of those truths that is only not really talked about in mainstream media.
	And he continues, other failings identified in the report included that Rotherham was still seen as a hotspot for the sexual abuse of children, because it is.
	The force feared it was recording fewer cases of child sexual exploitation because of competing demands to investigate other claims such as county lines drug gangs.
	Basically, we were busy.
	They kicked it to the bottom of the priority list because they didn't want to deal with it.
	Our police.
	I don't believe that's good enough, though.
	Because there's that aspect.
	I am sure that they are not doing their jobs.
	That's ultimately believable.
	But the fact that they didn't want to record the ethnicities of those they were arresting for this situation, to this day, I mean, years and years after all the scandals come out, tells you that it's not just laziness.
	No, it's not.
	There's an element of deliberate cover-up here, isn't there?
	Still.
	I mean, you even got the local MP, Sarah Champion, openly saying this is a problem that has to be fixed.
	Mm-hmm.
	I mean, the rot in the police, I don't know how deep it goes.
	Yeah, well, we'll get on to that.
	Officers couldn't fully search their missing persons database, impacting on the force's ability to deal with missing persons effectively, which is a key flag for CSC. So that's just saying, oh, our software wasn't working, Governor.
	It's not our fault.
	Key information from schools and sexual health clinics was not readily available for the police.
	Ah, so it's the school's fault, apparently.
	Not the police.
	Just blaming other people.
	They want more power and more information, basically.
	The police in Rotherham are blind.
	They'll have their eyes poked out.
	They've got no other means of assessing someone's ethnicity.
	They just have to check the school documents.
	I can't possibly look at Yep, and Andrew Norfolk writes in the paper today on some of the lessons still to be learned from the Rotherham scandal, so let's go through some of the takeaways from this article.
	It feels horribly familiar, he begins.
	More than ten years after the Times first investigated the targeted abuse of girls by organised groups of men, to realise that child protection authorities are still making similar mistakes is deeply worrying.
	Calling these mistakes, I think, is quite charitable, because it doesn't seem like there's anything accidental.
	Hang on, we know it's not a mistake by the admission of the Jay Report.
	As you mentioned, the famous quote being...
	The fear of racism.
	We didn't investigate because of fear of racism.
	That's not a mistake.
	No.
	That's an action you took consciously.
	You knew that you would be accused of being a racist, and therefore you consciously decided not to do your job.
	Yeah.
	Much has changed since the autumn of 2010.
	Back then it was a crime hiding in plain sight Many police forces I know Many police forces and care professionals Were so reluctant to tackle the street grooming model Of child sexual exploitation That they refused to acknowledge its existence I suppose the change is we acknowledge its existence now I'm not sure they even do.
	I suppose as a nation we do?
	Alexis Jay's report created headlines in the summer of 2014 with its finding that failings by social workers and police between 1997 and 2013 allowed 1,400 local girls to fall victim to appalling abuse by men who were largely of Pakistani heritage.
	And I believe that's the tip of the iceberg, isn't it?
	That was just the ones, the provable cases.
	And that's spanning years.
	This has happened, this has spanned decades at this point.
	And that's one town.
	Yes.
	One town in a country of 64 million people.
	Hmm.
	Now, from my point of view, the idea that the police are on the side of British civil society seems ludicrous in light of their response to the grooming gang scandal.
	As an institution, the police seem to have no interest in protecting the British public.
	They cavort through our streets in annual pride parades, they cruise around in rainbow-coloured clown cars, or deck themselves out in the regalia of diversity, as we've covered on this channel, and they seem far more committed to this performative activism than to the protection and safety of the people.
	Let's have a look at what South Yorkshire Police has to say on its Twitter.
	Today we've changed our profile photo to the rainbow flag in support of International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia.
	This from 2018.
	If we scroll down, there's more and more of this.
	Just diversity.
	Oh, we're committed to tackling hate crime in all its forms.
	Except anti-white grooming gangs, apparently.
	Sorry, did one of the nonces make that image?
	Hmm...
	I mean, that's the thing in my mind.
	Because remember, the statement from the police is we didn't investigate our fear of being called racist, and yet you're perpetuating the culture here, love not hate there.
	I'm just thinking in my mind, if a nonce had written that, you could see the narrative following.
	Don't investigate me or you're racist.
	Yeah, and the big heart and the very little heart as well.
	You're right, there's something in the imagery that's disturbing.
	If we go down further...
	Hate crime can include things like physical assault, damage to property, offensive graffiti, arson, and inciting hatred online.
	Or arresting individuals involved in noncery.
	That's hate crime as well, is it?
	Because you didn't do it.
	You didn't do these things on the basis that you were scared.
	And then the next one, hate hurts.
	Report it and put a stop to it.
	And then a picture of people mostly from an ethnic background with hate makes me feel and an ellipsis.
	Okay, fair enough.
	Visit our website to hear from the Hate Crime Force Lead Superintendent Pullman about our commitment to tackling the problem, the difference between hate crimes and hate incidents, and how to report them.
	Hashtag idahobbit2018, hashtag LGBT, hashtag diversity.
	Yeah, well done South Yorkshire Police.
	Now, this is from 2018, so you might say, oh, what if they've got better in the last few years?
	Yeah, right.
	Well, how have their priorities developed in 2021?
	Let's have a listen to the Christmas message of the Rotherham District Commander.
	If we can play from 2.27.
	Here we go.
	What you can also look to see going forward is more officers on the street through our uplift programme.
	We've got our Race Equality and Inclusion Hub Which is all about making sure that our district, our services is a true representation of our public, as we do our recruitment drives.
	And of course, violence against women and girls is taken seriously in this force as it is any other force.
	And not only will we make sure that you are safer on the streets going forward, but that you actually feel safer.
	What do you reckon?
	Is there something missing from the superintendent of Rotherham District police force there, do you think?
	Well, I've listened to the whole thing and there is no mention of grooming gangs in any of their priorities.
	This is actually the closest they get, mentioning the generic category of violence against women and girls in the same breath as diversity and inclusion.
	Perhaps a bit more of one and a bit less of the other?
	Now, Steve Chapman, from that, as far as I can tell, seems like a decent bloke.
	You might enjoy having a pint with him at the pub.
	But that's not enough when you have a position of responsibility that oversees a disaster of this magnitude.
	During Covid especially, we've seen the other side of police protection.
	The policeman that acts with the mentality of a militia or an overseer, an outsider to the community which they patrol.
	As a Lord of the Rings aficionado, I'm reminded of the ruffians and the sheriffs that swaggered around Hobbiton until the scouring of the Shire in the last chapter.
	It was cut from the films.
	The repeated failure over decades to address the grooming scandal is a sure sign that the British police has catastrophically failed as an institution.
	In the words of Michael Jackson, they don't really care about us.
	Let's return to George Greenwood's thread.
	There is also a big issue here, he notes, with police transparency.
	This is the, if we go back to the first, the Twitter thread.
	Thank you.
	I requested copies of all UK police forces problem profiles in August 2020.
	Some of these forces' profiles showed failures, including that little evidence of the exploiters was being investigated.
	And then we quote from this article, there are a couple of points here to look at.
	Children are known to be at risk of abuse, have gone missing more than 55,000 times in Britain over the past three years, with some as young as 11.
	Tens of thousands of children being abused over 10 years after this was all broken.
	Why eleven?
	Do you have any idea?
	No.
	Because Muhammad, the perfect man, as Islam teaches, wanted to marry his favourite wife Aisha at nine and had sex with her at eleven.
	I was not aware of that.
	Married her at six, apparently.
	Police intelligence reports admit significant gaps in knowledge around child sexual exploitation and a failure by some officers to record any information about suspects.
	One teenager with learning disabilities was filmed being abused by a group of men, but police initially took no action because she claimed that it was consensual.
	So again, this was one of the problems we had at the start, was that children were coming out of this having clearly been sexually abused, and the police weren't following up because they said, oh, it's just a lifestyle choice for these children to be having sex with multiple adult Pakistani Muslim men.
	High Court judges have complained to the government that councils are keeping child victims of abuse in caravans because of a lack of space in regulated, secure children's homes.
	Forces tried to cover up the failings by redacting potentially embarrassing findings in reports during a nine-month freedom of information battle with reporters.
	So, again, the police are up to their old tricks.
	They're doing absolutely nothing by the sounds of it to make this any better, to tackle the problem.
	They seem to still have their head in the sand and are pretending this problem does not exist.
	Or if they aren't pretending that it doesn't exist, then their inactivity and incompetence is aiding at abetting it.
	I have a correction to make, apparently it's at 9.
	You had sex with her.
	Married at 6 and consummated at 9.
	Yep.
	The only thing I'm reminded of, sorry, I'm being a bit quiet.
	That's alright.
	There's a segment we never released because of legal problems, in which me and Carl went through a document from the Home Office, in which they listed a series of memes that That they decided should be illegal.
	As they described them, it was legal but dangerous, or legal but harmful, and they were saying this should be included in the online harms bill, the stuff that should be made illegal.
	One of the images was of a British girl being raped by a Muslim man.
	It was a cartoon.
	And in the background, you can see the father getting dragged away by police with rainbow lapels and all that.
	That is a cartoon that the British state once censored under the grounds that it may cause terrorism.
	Why might that be the case?
	Surely, if that had no representation in reality, it wouldn't have an effect.
	Look at the priorities.
	They're worried about the cartoon.
	Not the thing that is taking place in reality.
	Yeah.
	It's outrageous.
	There's really no two ways about it.
	And there's just lists.
	He goes through all of the forces and their shortcomings.
	A 2018 Nottinghamshire police report showed victims were left vulnerable because not all officers investigating child sexual exploitation were properly trained, meaning charging opportunities were missed.
	Hmm.
	Bedfordshire Police's 2015 report showed it could not agree with councils in the area as to which children were actually at risk.
	2015 Cumbria Police report found some officers viewed victims as willing participants without properly checking the background of cases.
	Hampshire...
	Children.
	We're talking about children.
	Yeah.
	Willing participants in sex.
	That doesn't exist.
	In sex with adults.
	By law, that doesn't exist.
	Mm-hmm.
	It doesn't exist, but the only time it does exist is when we're talking about ethnic minorities, apparently.
	Hampshire Police's 2018 profile revealed that child exploitation warning notices, civil orders that ban a suspect from associating with a victim without having to go to trial, often simply led to the abuser approaching another child.
	Duh.
	Suffolk Police's 2019 report revealed that many officers have little understanding of how important intelligence is, clearly, and may feel they do not have time to complete an intelligence log in relation to child sexual exploitation.
	Really, are we arguing that all of the failings here are technical and procedural?
	North Yorkshire Police found in 2017 that it was failing to flag offenders as being a risk to children until an offence was proven.
	Fabulous.
	Now, Sarah Champion MP has at least lived up to her name despite being a Labour MP and has spoken out on this issue, which is good.
	As she says here, South Yorkshire Police not recording ethnicity.
	Illogical that they don't.
	It's a characteristic, much as a limp tattoo or hair colour when you're creating an offender profile.
	Why are police not collecting details?
	Presumably the results would be too inclusive for their liking.
	Finally, the news recently is that Patel has come out and said that from now on, police must record the ethnicity of grooming suspects.
	From March, it will become mandatory for officers to record the ethnicity of people they arrest on suspicion of involvement in group-based child sexual exploitation.
	In 2019, police forces were told to keep a comprehensive record of suspects' biographical details.
	Home Office guidance said all information, no matter how insignificant it may appear, can contribute to greater clarity around what are often extensive and complex exploitation networks.
	So, nearly three years ago now, they were told exactly, specifically, record everything you can about these people.
	And they were like, okay, yeah, but not race.
	Not ethnicity.
	Interesting.
	The thing in my mind, I was about to say, it's nice that Priti Patel has said that you must do this now.
	But if they've been told before, and they didn't do it, and now you're telling them again, what do you think is going to happen?
	They're still not doing it.
	Well, they might do it this time, if it's mandated in law.
	But the problem is, this is a very tiny...
	that the Home Office can mandate and force them to do something which is a basic common sense fundamental of their job.
	But that's one thing, and there are thousands of things that they do like this where they will just neglect if they are not directly mandated to do it.
	But yet again, politicians come out and address one of the tiny surface problems contributing to a national tragedy while doing nothing to address the deep-rooted structural and cultural problems with the police that have caused it to fester.
	The police were not only able to do these things, they had been instructed to do so by Home Office guidance.
	Yet unless every detail of their job is made mandatory in the case of protecting the people of this country, they simply will not do it.
	Yet again, the police shirk their duties.
	The thing in my mind is this could not be a better argument for a situation where you have told an institution such as the police force, do this, they don't do it, you made it a legal requirement, great, wonderful.
	Quite frankly, I think you need to go into the police force all over the entire country and do a purge.
	And I mean a serious purge, and the individuals that immediately come to light are those politicizing the force itself.
	Yeah.
	Those in departments, we all know, diversity heads, all the rest of it, do not waste time with saying these things are not the case.
	These people have to be removed from their position, and the position made redundant.
	Because they are not there to help the force run more efficiently.
	Or to protect the people.
	They are there to poison it.
	And this is an example of their poison.
	Absolutely.
	very well said I found this segment quite harrowing to put together if you're a glutton for punishment Romy Tobinson is releasing a trailer tomorrow for his feature Rape of Britain which might cover this story in more detail I believe is quite active on Getter if you want to follow up on that Go to getter.com to follow the bad man Robin Tobinson and how you actually spell his name I will find for you Sorry that made me mad
	Yeah, sorry about that, but I think the next segment is a little brighter, is that right?
	Yeah, but I don't think you could go darker if you tried.
	Well, in celebration of that, I'm putting my Christmas hat on.
	There we go.
	God, I thought we were talking about killing the crisp spirit.
	Well, you're wearing the jumper.
	I assume because Dr.
	Ella Hill, who has written about this for us and has been through hell herself on this, she has done a lot of lobbying on that basis that anti-white hate crimes especially need to be recorded, the racists need to be recorded, the rapists need to be recorded, all the rest of it.
	So I think she had a chat with quite a lot of people in government, so maybe that's a first step.
	But you have to go in there and purge.
	And everyone knows that you have to go in there and purge.
	Anyway.
	AOC has decided to flee New York, which is not a surprise to anyone who's looking at New York.
	You may remember we covered previously, so we get this tweet up, which is the New York Police Department kicking out a child and his mother from an Applebee's because they dared to go in without their papers.
	And he ends up shouting at all the people in the restaurant that you must have your papers or you will be removed.
	This is your warning.
	Because it's a free state, isn't it?
	And someone's doing a good job there and shouting, is this what you joined the police force for?
	Yeah.
	A damn good question.
	But the thing here being that you've got vaccine mandates, vaccine passport mandates, so if you want to go any out, if you want to do basic stuff, you have to have your papers, please.
	There are mask mandates, so if you want to go to any of these places, you must wear your mask until you get to the table, at which point you take it off.
	Makes no sense, but whatever, fine.
	And this is the rules of New York.
	And you put that on top of all the crime, the filth, the noise that is associated with living in a hive city.
	The tax, the inefficient bureaucracy, the terrible business conditions.
	So no one wants to live there.
	No, really.
	You know who doesn't want to live there especially?
	Or at least doesn't want to be there right now for sure.
	Who is it?
	AOC. Isn't she literally the representative for New York?
	Yeah, I mean, she's New York incarnate there.
	Or at least New York's politics, let's say.
	And you can see here, the lady responding here, Christina, is the press secretary for Ron DeSantis.
	She's loving this.
	And I love that she's loving it, frankly.
	And she responds by looking at the image of AOC, that exclusive AOC spotted in Miami Beach as New York City reports record COVID cases.
	Maskless.
	No mask.
	She's in a free state.
	She's in Florida.
	A friend over there, also no mask.
	Don't you know you have to wear it in between bites or you're going to get COVID, folks?
	And no passports.
	No vaccine passports to be shown because it is a free state.
	And Christina going, ha ha ha ha, no wonder Blue Anon has been in total meltdown mode today.
	Because, yes, they have.
	And if we move on, we can see more of Christina having a jolly old time.
	Florida is so dangerous and scary that AOC decided to go on vacation in Miami this week.
	You know it's a free state when even a Democrat can enjoy cocktails without being forced to show her papers or wear a mask.
	Alligator emoji.
	God bless Florida.
	Yeah, I really enjoy that his press secretary is just so on it, constantly.
	Because leftists own themselves, they post their L's online endlessly, and it'll always be fun.
	Let's move on to the next tweet of hers, I believe.
	And this is a story.
	She's responding to an individual here who is saying a story about what happened in New York.
	While she's down there having her cocktails with no papers and no mask...
	My wife and I were kicked out of Lake Placid New York Hotel last night for not wearing masks in the lobby.
	Irate manager told me to wear a mask.
	I told him I don't comply with mask mandates.
	He called the police department and had us removed for trespassing.
	Insanity and will never spend a dime in New York.
	Yeah?
	Yeah.
	I mean, if you have an experience like that, you're not going to come back again, are you?
	And then she's responding, which is, that's absolutely crazy.
	So you've got, you know, the press secretary of the Florida governor is having to deal and respond to complaints of residents of New York because...
	Well, she's probably doing it on behalf of AOC, seeing as she's gone to Florida.
	She doesn't have time to go on her phone and check in messages.
	Instead, Christina's doing the representative part of representative government.
	The press secretary is having to do this for you, AOC, because you're too busy having contacts.
	I might adopt the alligator emoji as a symbol of freedom, the way this is going on.
	Honestly, yes.
	Anyone in Florida should be feeling incredibly proud.
	I know many of you are.
	I always get some messages after I do a segment on Florida Man, which is like, hell yeah!
	Just gloating that they're living in a free state.
	Nice.
	Let's continue.
	Let's go to the next one.
	Let's move to the next one.
	Which we have her making more fun here.
	Hashtag Where's AOC, mask free.
	Hashtag AOC, Where's AOC was trending apparently in response to this, of course, because she's in the free state.
	And then if we keep going, we can get some more from Christina here.
	The point she makes as well, which is not just AFC, who is a democratic refugee from her own thoughts and actions.
	It's a lot more.
	Isn't there a disproportionate amount of red states at the top of this?
	Net internal migration.
	Migration of Americans.
	Where are they moving around in the United States?
	Number one, Florida.
	Number one.
	220,000 people moved to Florida.
	Goodness me.
	In the previous year.
	If you'd scroll down on this, please, John, I think we can probably find New York somewhere.
	Where could it be?
	Where could it be in the middle?
	Eh, not there.
	No, it's second from bottom right next to California.
	352,000 people have left New York in a year, is this?
	New York and California within a year.
	Over 300,000 in both of them.
	I mean, over 350,000 in both of them, actually.
	Wow.
	People leaving.
	Where are they going?
	They're going Florida.
	Just like AOC. Fleeing their own actions.
	Let's move on.
	So let's go to the next one.
	Well, no wonder they've imported over 2 million immigrants this year.
	Someone needs to live in New York.
	You can see a Jewish deplorable here saying DeSantis needs to tweet this, and he certainly does, so it's a fake tweet.
	Enjoy your vacation, AOC. Welcome to the free state of Florida.
	He totally does need to, and I don't know, come on, Christina just hacked into his account.
	And if we go to the next one, we have Team DeSantis, who did decide to do something like this.
	Welcome to Florida, AOC. We hope you're enjoying a taste of freedom here in the Sunshine State, thanks to Ron DeSantis' leadership.
	She certainly is.
	They also say underneath here, P.S. We recommend the Rock Shrimp Roll and Akitai Japanese speaker over here.
	The next time you decide to dine in Miami, cheers.
	So, I don't know if those places are any good, but Team DeSantis is endorsing them, so they can't be that bad, can they?
	Well, so she's not the only COVID idiot fleeing her own actions, as mentioned.
	But in the United States, there are literally hundreds and thousands of them, about 700,000 minimum, as listed, including ACs for 700,000 and one, at least.
	We also have the same situation in the UK. Because the kilns.
	And so this is the story here.
	You may remember Boris Johnson and us endlessly covering the hot water he was in.
	This was for a reason, which is that he was caught out, finally, and he had to decide whether he was going to lock us down for Christmas and New Year's.
	And as you can see here, he ended up not doing that.
	And the reason he ended up not doing that, quite frankly, is because of the pressure put on by the public through their MPs and then the ministers.
	By you guys.
	So anyone who sent their emails into their MPs, maybe they were a BS person about the vote and all that.
	But the public pressure nationally, as an aggregate, certainly did have the impact that we needed, which is to make the point we do not need to do lockdowns.
	And, well, it's as bad as it would have been with lockdowns, except a lot less fewer people are in poverty.
	That's the only difference.
	As you can see here, just Boris saying that we're not going to do that.
	So good on everyone.
	If we move to the next one, he is talking about whether or not he's going to do it for the after New Year's, apparently.
	Which, again, try it.
	Just try it.
	No one's going to follow it.
	Come on.
	You've lost this utterly.
	And it is a shame that we have to have him breaking his own rules, be the thing that broke the camel's back, instead of a principled stance from everyone, from the government, just that we're not doing this.
	But whatever.
	We'll take it as we can.
	But if we go to the next one here, we have, of course, that the Celts did not do this.
	The Celts decide to go ahead and do lockdowns and say that you shouldn't have parties at all over Christmas or New Year's.
	The Scottish National Socialist Party up to its old tricks.
	Not interested in you having fun.
	No fun allowed in Scotland.
	Scottish government issues last-ditch plea to Scots, however, heading to England to celebrate New Year's Eve, to stay away from large-scale parties because Omicron poses a serious threat to the nation, they say.
	Do they?
	Not as much as Nicola Sturgeon does.
	The English government disagrees.
	Yeah, and so do the Scots if they're travelling to England for a party on New Year's Eve.
	Pouring over the border.
	Apparently the same is also taking place with Wales, in which they are pouring over the border to come and have a party in England.
	And so if we go back...
	If we go back, I'm not done with that, John, in which we have a statement here.
	Nicola Sturgeon has banned large Hogmanay celebrations and advised people to limit socialising as much as possible.
	There are similar restrictions on socialising in places in Wales, and experts have predicted as many as 100,000 Scottish and Welsh revellers could journey across the border to celebrate this evening.
	100,000.
	Celts coming across the border.
	You're welcome.
	The more the merrier.
	Have fun.
	Spend your money.
	Have good fun.
	Try not to enslave anyone this time, as you did in the past, but in this time...
	Don't take any cattle back with you.
	Just have some fun, and then go back and live your miserable lives under the Labour Party and the SNP, the two sides of the same coin, frankly, when it comes to ideology.
	And I'm not being cruel, actually.
	I do sympathize immensely with the free Welsh and the free Scottish who are trying to fight such things.
	All the best to you.
	I remember Voice of Wales in Scotland is a shout-out there of an organization that is trying it, going to check out people who were silenced by the BBC. But Espe mentioned Nicola Sturgeon banning Hogmanay, which apparently she banned her own as well.
	So if we go to the next link, this is the Metro article.
	Man arrested for organizing Hogmanay party at Nicola Sturgeon's house.
	Free country, ladies and gentlemen.
	You may remember that we, as in the English, found out that Boris was having parties every day during the last lockdown, and therefore some guy set up a Facebook account, a Facebook party, saying, you know, everyone come, party at Boris Johnson's number 10, come on down.
	And 1.2 million people ended up responding on Facebook, saying, la mao, sure.
	Of course no one went, because you can't break into number 10 and have a party.
	It's a joke.
	It's a comedy thing.
	It's not real.
	It's not a serious idea.
	It's satire, you might say.
	You might think I'm being over the top by laying this out.
	Police Scotland didn't get the joke.
	And as you can see, they decided to arrest the man who tried to do this to Nicola Sturgeon.
	And as you can see, New Year's Eve street party at Sturgeon's house.
	So out of her street, not even in the house.
	So I don't know what you can even argue there.
	And they say, man arrested for organising the party.
	The man has been arrested for encouraging people to attend a fake New Year's Eve event at Nicholas Sturgeon's house.
	The fake event being a Facebook post, which a thousand people responded to.
	That was enough to call the coppers about the whole thing.
	Scotland's First Minister announced further restrictions that would come in, all but cancelling pretty much everyone's New Year's Eve.
	But one man, 33, seemed to have been tired of Mrs.
	Sturgeon creating an event on Facebook in which he invited everyone to go.
	More than 700 people confirmed they were attending, with 1,100 saying they were interested as well.
	So that's the interesting difference here, which is the Boris Johnson one completely blew up.
	Over a million people said they were going on Facebook.
	This one, not so much.
	So it's even not something that would come about as a major story in Scotland.
	Someone had to go looking for it, presumably, or was sent it and got really mad.
	Who done it?
	Mm-hmm.
	Not Nicola herself, unfortunately.
	It's her sister.
	Go to the next link here.
	The son got the information here.
	Miss Sturgeon's sister, Gillen46, said she had reported the event prankster to the police.
	My sister's personal address, she said, is now shared all over social media as an event for a New Year's party.
	I'm sorry, like, I don't think you get to pull the doxing card when you are the literal leader of a nation.
	I don't think that works.
	Everyone knows that 10 Downing Street is the address of Boris Johnson.
	It's not like we're doxing him to say that.
	And I believe the First Minister has an official address in the same way, does she not?
	Yes, I don't know which address he used, but either way, it doesn't actually go into any of the legal complaints, as we will see in a minute.
	So it's completely irrelevant.
	She says, So that's a threat.
	Looks like you're in for a Merry Christmas.
	That's also a threat.
	Gloating about the whole thing.
	Shattered Nick's security onto it.
	Are they called the black shirts by any chance?
	She's referring to the Scottish police as Nick's security.
	She will have her own private security.
	But she's saying, I've called the police, Nick's security are onto it.
	And then the police turn up and arrest the dude.
	This is not a crime in England, or at least was never seen as a crime.
	We accepted Facebook S posts as part of life.
	Scotland not so much, because it makes fun of the dear leader and her perfect policies that must not be criticised.
	The unmanned name has been released on bail and will appear in court at a later date.
	Police Scotland confirmed that the man has been charged with a connection, a conviction charged with a connection.
	He has been charged in connection with communications offences.
	Communications offences.
	That's a very broad term.
	So, apparently, it is the Communications Act.
	What part of the Communications Act...
	Is it Section 127 again?
	It is.
	Let's go to the next link, please.
	Father of one who works as a bouncer was charged under Section 127, Part 2 of the Communications Act 2003 and kept in a cell until 3am the next day.
	At which point they kicked him out and just said walk home, I guess.
	At 3am.
	I hope they called him a cab at least.
	Have the common tendency to do that.
	He said...
	So he gave an interview to the Daily Mail.
	Said, one of the coppers said I was causing fear, alarm and distress to the First Minister.
	Ha!
	Wow.
	Making memes about the First Minister is causing fear, alarm and distress.
	Well, she needs to grow a thicker skin if she wants to be in politics.
	This also isn't part of the complaint.
	Fear, alarm, distress is not part of part two of section 127.
	Oh.
	Me neither.
	Keep that in mind as we go forward.
	He continued in the interview.
	They kept reiterating that this is coming from higher above.
	It was real cloak and dagger stuff.
	This is political policing.
	It's completely overreach.
	It's meant to be a free society, but it's more like North Korea at the moment.
	I've been crucified for a Facebook post.
	Yeah, this is Welcome to Scotland.
	At least you didn't hum South Korean pop songs, I guess.
	Then you'd be in real trouble.
	Video of his arrest shows him telling officers the police work for the First Minister.
	They don't support the people of Scotland.
	Ultimately, I could lose my job if found guilty of a crime.
	Yeah, it does sound like they're being used like a private security agency, a private security force.
	It's very, very dystopian.
	He made a meme.
	I mean, I'm waiting for Dankula to get arrested again, frankly, and be caught up on bogus charges as well.
	Or is he learning his lesson and he's not going to make fun of the deal?
	I wonder if Dank's travelling south for Hogmanning.
	He's on one of these buses.
	I'd be moving south permanently if I were him.
	Let's move on.
	So let's go to the lore itself, because you may be wondering, what the hell is this lore?
	Is it the same one Dank was charged with?
	Well, almost.
	So, this is section 127 here, and it is put into separate parts.
	Section 1 being the part that Dankula was charged with, grossly offensive content, because he was grossly offensive, or maybe the pug was, I'm not really too sure about what the argument really was in the case.
	This is the Nazi pug guy for the three people who don't know him.
	Even watching the case at the time and campaigning in the case and all the rest of it, I'm still not really understanding the opposition's argument because it was retarded.
	No, but the judge just decided to make an example of...
	But they have part two here, so this is part two that he was charged with for making a Facebook group.
	What is that?
	Quote, A person is guilty of an offence if, for the purpose of causing annoyance, inconvenience, or needless anxiety to another, he sends by means of a public communications network a message that he knows to be false.
	It's an incredibly open law.
	That's ridiculous.
	They're seriously arguing that he knew that his fake party was false.
	Of course he knew.
	That's the joke.
	How do you make any jokes or satire without knowing that it's false?
	That's the point in the...
	I mean, I was expecting them to at least try and make an argument, but instead, no, he said something that's false.
	So, according to their interpretation of this law, if you say something that is not true online, it is illegal under Section 127, Part 2 of the Communications Act.
	Surely that cannot stand in court.
	If it causes annoyance, inconvenience, or needless anxiety.
	Define any of them in court.
	For the purpose of causing that as well.
	But that's the thing.
	Of course it caused annoyance.
	I was making fun of the First Minister for being a buzzkill.
	You're not allowed to annoy politicians now.
	Is that illegal?
	If you make a meme in the United Kingdom, this isn't just Scotland, that is false because it's a meme and therefore the satire is in there, but you are trying to annoy a politician, you are committing a crime.
	That is how Nicola Sturgeon is interpreting this law, and taking this man to court court.
	And again, you have the problem that Dankula faced, which is that the court determines what your purpose was.
	You don't get to say, you don't get to refer to context.
	No, they just get to decide what the purpose is.
	Kangaroo country.
	Yeah.
	Dissolve the Scottish Parliament.
	These people cannot be trusted to run a train set.
	I'm going to...
	Part B and part C, I'll just read for the purposes of making it clear.
	Part B, it also can be an offence if he causes such a message to be sent, or of course he did, he did send the meme, or persistently makes use of a public communication network.
	That is what the internet is, defined by law, so who cares?
	But they're charging him with setting up a fake party.
	That is the joke.
	That is the effing joke.
	That is the point.
	You cannot make jokes with them all being true.
	It's not really...
	I don't...
	We're just gonna...
	I don't know what we can do.
	I mean, Babylon Bee would be an illegal publication if this is the law.
	Yeah.
	It's insane.
	If we go to the last one here, which is just to remember the Christmas party, as mentioned.
	I was one, and I don't know if you were as well, one of the 1.2 million people who said they're gonna go to Downing Street.
	The guy who made this, and everyone who said we were going, did you not go?
	Did you not go on Christmas Eve?
	No.
	As a crime governor, well, well, well, what do we have there then?
	Do you have a license for this Facebook meme?
	That is where we are living.
	I didn't realize, I heard the story and I thought it was going to be, you know, with doxing her or something.
	No, the crime is with saying he was going to go to the party when he wasn't.
	How do they know?
	Could have gone to the party.
	Oh, they get to determine what his purpose is.
	They're the state, don't you know?
	Damn, no, they do actually have an admission from him.
	When the police interviewed him, he said that he hadn't brought any fireworks.
	I'm not joking.
	In the defense, he was like, look, I'm not going to do it.
	I haven't brought any fireworks.
	Or music.
	Okay.
	It's like, oh, you've dubbed yourself in, mate.
	That's what they were counting on you saying.
	You should have said I brought, you know, little barbecues, sausages.
	It sounds like this guy's got a cracking sense of humour.
	I wonder if we'll see Dankula part two turning up in a few years' time.
	This guy's ridiculous case gets processed through the Scottish justice system.
	So that's Dankula Part 2, Electric Boogaloo.
	And, of course, AOC... Hey, that's his channel.
	He can't do that.
	Wait, is it?
	Yeah, it's the second channel.
	That one's copyrighted, mate.
	You'll have to go with another one.
	Pick another one.
	Part 3.
	So they, of course, have AOC fleeing her own actions.
	And now, well, what's the next step?
	In Scotland, we have the answer, which is to just lock people up when they criticise you.
	I didn't say it was much better than your segment.
	It started off well.
	Let's go to the video comments.
	There's Jersey Devil chocolates, if you like a little spice in your chocolate.
	If you really like to push the boat out with spice and chocolate, you will struggle to find anything more menacing than this from Oddfellows.
	Containing actual scorpion pepper, it's a real challenge.
	Also, when my cousin got married, he commissioned bespoke chocolates for the reception.
	Gun culture does exist in the UK. We had this toilet paper.
	It was almost like greaseproof paper.
	The toilet paper Leo was mentioning was an old brand called Eisel.
	It has a funny role to play in the videos of YouTuber Quentin Smyers.
	Is that toilet paper still made?
	More importantly, why was it made?
	Who thought this was a good idea?
	I do like how Alex Ogle is becoming our in-house researcher almost.
	Yeah, I love the little factoids we get at him.
	It's really cool.
	Good work, Alex.
	Let's go to the next one.
	So I think we can all agree that 2021 has been a very terrible joke.
	So I figured it was best to end it on a very terrible joke.
	Schindler's left.
	Happy New Year everyone.
	Oh, I think I know where that is, actually.
	At least he's not making showers, I guess.
	I don't know what to say to that, but...
	I mean, Shindler was a good guy in the end.
	Not your best work, I'm afraid, Baystate.
	Not your best work.
	You'll have to pick up the level for next year.
	A dad joke, but I suppose you'll get rid of that.
	Go to the next one.
	Hey, a load of cedars.
	Are in here.
	Okay.
	Let's try this again, not using a 4K camera.
	This is an Xbox 360 that I bought.
	PSA, if you have any consoles laying around that you're still using, especially old ones like this, clean them.
	Seriously, this is disgusting.
	PSA, clean your stuff.
	Make me.
	Yeah, no, people just don't clean their hardware.
	It really annoys me.
	They just wait until it gets all banking and gross and get a new one.
	Just clean it.
	I used to have a desktop.
	It's in bits over there, actually.
	It's the one I was going to scrap.
	I used to clean that quite a lot, and then I've only had really, like, laptops since.
	I've got a PS3. You can clean a laptop as well.
	Laptops also get mucky inside.
	Yeah, but I don't know what I'm doing with laptops.
	I don't know why.
	You just clean it.
	I know it's basically the same thing, but I get all scared about the fact that it's different.
	There's usually one circuit board that's that big.
	Yeah, you take off the back and then blow the wind.
	I've got an Xbox 360 and a PlayStation 3, but they're sat in a cupboard, so I don't think they're running too badly.
	I don't really know why I kept them.
	I don't know.
	We kept our old ones, and every now and every few years we seem to get them out, play the old games, and put them back again.
	It's nice.
	Dad's got a PS2. We had like three of them or something.
	I played Gauntlet on it a lot.
	You ever play Dark Legacy?
	No.
	Oh, okay.
	Ever want to play Gauntlet Dark Legacy?
	Memories.
	I'm alright.
	Let's go to the next one.
	I thought you might like to know that during the 1860s a large number of Southern and Eastern Europeans immigrated to the United States, and most of their descendants adopted the dominant white Anglo-Saxon Protestant culture.
	And because of that, over the next 80 years, the definition of white person was expanded to include the Southern and Eastern Europeans.
	In America, we don't care.
	But that's interesting.
	No, that's interesting for the American context.
	Race is just a stupid term in Europe.
	No, he's actually got a very good...
	I mentioned before, you know the monkey image.
	It's like monkey and then monkey man and then man, right?
	You can see the growth there of the term white in America losing its meaning as it has.
	So when you look at a critical race, there is interpretation of whiteness or white.
	And they start listing, like, the King's English.
	And you realise they're just listing English characteristics.
	It's because, well, they became part of the Anglo-Saxon culture there.
	Yeah, which was one of the central parts of American culture.
	But then that's sort of been dropped and it just has white now.
	And it's like, well...
	Sorry to burst your bubble, but Italians aren't white, so don't know what to do about that.
	And you see it sometimes in Vox, where they've made videos of being looking at race.
	They're like, yeah, white, stupid concept, am I right?
	Because Irish weren't white, and now they are white.
	Well, there you are.
	There's the evidence of why.
	Because, well, they became Anglo-Saxon in the American context there.
	Well, in which case, they're not Irish anymore.
	It's not that they are white and then weren't white.
	But they assimilate into that culture.
	Yeah, the white part of that is meaningless.
	Have they become part of the dominant culture group, which is Anglo-Saxon?
	Hi guys.
	When I spoke of the pill, I mean of the birth control pill.
	But to call it a control is a lie, for it is a jerry-rigging of an instinct 10,000 years in the making, if not older.
	So I asked the question whether it's right for us to do so.
	And I don't think it is.
	I think it is immoral.
	What do you reckon?
	I've never really pondered the subject.
	Is it immoral to take the pill?
	Well, according to some, for a long time when it came in, it was certainly deplored by the Catholic Church at the time, and I believe it's not particularly popular these days, among those religious groups.
	Yeah, it is an interesting question you raise because there's a broader discussion which is more about transhumanism in a sense where you're saying, is it immoral to alter the human body?
	Well, you could argue that medicines are altering the human body.
	They are also jerry-rigging ancient instincts in various ways.
	But I don't think that's a reason to reject medicine.
	What do you think?
	I've said before, I don't really know enough on the whole abortion argument to get into it.
	But it comes off to me as kind of like an even more extreme version of the Christian version of that.
	You know, with a Christian perspective, it can't be life, therefore.
	You're getting even deeper to...
	Because I imagine his response would be, well, okay, I agree with taking medicine, but this is about reproduction, therefore.
	This is different.
	Yeah, but I think if you were to look deeply into the way other medical treatments work, you would find that this is far from the only such instinct that is being hijacked in a way in order to make medicines work.
	And obviously you could say that the social implications of the birth control pill are very large and that's why it's more worth dealing with and I think you'd be right.
	But I don't think there's enough there just in that argument from a biological sense to say that it's immoral to engage in it.
	I don't have an opinion on it because it's not for me.
	Thank you.
	It's an interesting idea.
	And that was it for 2021 Fast New Seat Bells.
	I think we all know 2022 is going to be crazy, but this year I have met a lot of new exciting people through the Lotus Eaters and we started making projects.
	So I am really looking forward to see what we are going to make, who I'm going to meet, and I wish you all Happy New Year!
	Oh, that's lovely.
	It's really good.
	I'm glad to hear that people are speaking to each other and collaborating with each other and doing things, because that's part of what we're trying to do here, isn't it?
	Is create more of a community sense.
	So, that's nice.
	I'm just thinking of what kind of projects are people setting up.
	I'd like to know.
	I mean, the only thing in my mind is something I might ask for, but I'm not going to ask for anything.
	I'm just thinking in my head about music, because this is one of the things I find most difficult.
	I make a script for a video and I'm really annoyed that there's no music in the background.
	It sounds wrong to me.
	So if people make music and you are good and I can buy licenses or use it with your permission or whatever, I'll say I might be looking for that.
	The thing I always struggle with is I'll have an idea, but I'll want to support it with artwork or art.
	And there's a surprisingly small number of people that are actually good enough to make good illustrations and things like that.
	So if that's the sort of talent that you have in the audience, it would be really cool to see.
	We did have quite a few video commentators we could do.
	So there are lots of different types of art and illustration as well.
	You want a specific style?
	Generally, yeah.
	What would you want?
	Well, more illustration style, I suppose, than more, like, perhaps graphic art or cartoon style.
	But there's lots of different types, and yeah, the chances that in any population you'll have them all well represented is quite low, even a population of artists.
	Anyway, I'm going off on my...
	I was thinking the other day, do you know that Japanese style of art, like the shogunate era or whatever, like the paintings?
	Okay, yeah.
	I don't know if I... Like Hokusai, the great wave at Kanagawa.
	Kind of like that, yeah.
	I've started looking more and more at stuff.
	I really enjoy just when it's an animal and the way they draw.
	I saw one where they did a lobster the other day.
	I don't know, something about that art style really appears to me.
	No, it was very...
	When it's animals.
	And it was very impactful.
	There's a famous tiger artist as well.
	But he literally spent his whole life drawing just tigers all the time.
	A Japanese artist.
	But when Western artists first encountered this, they thought it was a really interesting aesthetic.
	And a lot of the 19th century movements, so Impressionism, for example, were affected by Japanese art in that way, which is quite remarkable.
	And it happened the other way as well.
	The animals end up in that style kind of looking like mythical creatures.
	And that makes it far more magical in my head.
	Well, animals do have a mystical aspect to them, isn't it?
	When you're drawing an animal, you're...
	Like different claws.
	It's like an alien.
	You need to like Photoshop a Jordan Peterson face on top of it.
	We'll see.
	Yeah, just send me that.
	That sounds cool.
	Should we read some of the comments?
	Sure, I'm going to find some lobsters.
	Do you want to read out the first ones?
	Okay.
	Omar says, on COVID and race, it's your choice, but we'll jail, starve, ostracize, and basically take any measure to make sure you are unable to participate or survive in society if you choose.
	No.
	It's still your choice.
	Very astute.
	Harry says, free to choose, but remember to pick the right one when we leave you to die.
	Sorry.
	Remember to pick the right one, or when you leave, you die.
	Yes, free.
	Carbohydrate Crusader says, I know it was always to save the NHS and now it's to save you.
	That's the argument given by the authorities there.
	It was like, no, no, no, you're too high risk because you might end up dying while pregnant.
	But by their own statistics, 85% of the pregnant women...
	The problem really here is that they get to make a decision like that and you don't even get to talk about it.
	No.
	You're just out.
	They've decided your fate is sealed.
	And this is the problem with the managerial society.
	This is why we have things like democracies, because it's supposed to have some kind of pushback against someone just deciding your life for you.
	It's really awful.
	I can go over how they laid out the evidence there as like, well, pregnant women are 89% likely to end up in the ICU or whatever.
	Or at least 89% of those who died were unvaccinated pregnant women.
	But of the pregnant women, 85% were unvaccinated.
	So the difference is so tiny.
	It was 85% have not had both vaccines and 75% have not had any vaccines.
	Yes, it's very small.
	It's not significant enough, I would say, to be able to really make anything conclusive.
	But they're like, yeah, no, that's evidence.
	We're moving on.
	No treatment for you.
	Thanks.
	Kevin says, it all appears to be a form of backdoor reverse apartheid.
	A student of history says, I'm just waiting for the logical conclusion of banning cigarettes, sugary and fatty foods from non-whites on the basis of saving bodies of colour.
	Well, they've already decided they're going to ban cigarettes in New Zealand.
	I reckon there's going to be a pushback against meat.
	We're going to make some cigarettes, call them white strikes.
	Whites only can buy them or something like that.
	I don't know.
	Oh, God.
	I'm sorry, sir, but you're not the right race to buy these cigarettes.
	Yeah.
	Could you imagine?
	Well, poor black people cannot be allowed to smoke.
	They're too precious.
	Free Will 2112 says, Note the language of cataloguing that these leftists constantly use.
	There are no individuals, just impersonal groups, and the compassion of the leftists is the indifference of a librarian arranging their books in a dewy decimal fashion.
	Absolutely right.
	Yeah, once you move from the individual to the group, you've basically depersonalized everything.
	So, oh yes, we've just made this arbitrary decision that this category of people don't get medical treatment.
	It's just a category.
	It's not thousands and thousands of individuals whose lives have been irreparably ruined by your tyrannical and arbitrary decision.
	Baron von Warhawk says, They are willing to let women and children die from pregnancy complications in order to get them to take the shot.
	This was never about health.
	It was always about control and domination of the public.
	They view you as cattle.
	They hate you and are laughing as they ruin your life.
	These people are the lowest filth.
	I... Yeah, um...
	I don't know what to say to that.
	What do you think?
	I agree that the SNP and the Scottish Government are the lowest filth.
	Yeah, I think we can agree on that.
	The Scottish National Socialist Party.
	To me, it's laughable how day by day as they do more and more things, they just get closer to Yeah.
	The one thing I forgot to mention, actually, I'm a bit annoyed now, is that that whole situation, as I said before we went to lunch, reminds me of Erdogan and how he would lock up journalists for insulting Turkishness, which is so obviously arbitrary, just you've annoyed me, therefore bye.
	Yeah.
	Well, that is what happened to this guy.
	He's now got a criminal record, could lose his job, if found guilty, had to spend the night in a cell because he made a joke.
	Yeah.
	And he's not the only one, of course.
	But this is directly from Nicola Sturgeon's sister to him.
	It's not like this is some rowdy police force who's gone a bit rogue.
	No.
	No, this is the state.
	It's like the secret police force of the Chowchews and that sort of thing.
	It's not something we would expect to have in Britain.
	And yeah, the Scottish National Social Party, they are nationalists, they are socialists, and they are basically turning into Nazis more and more each day.
	So God help them if they ever get independence.
	Mr.
	Flibble says the people running Scotland just...
	Yeah, some red dwarf.
	Yeah.
	Mr.
	Flibble's...
	The people running Scotland, RIP headphone users, just crossed over the line for effing evil.
	Student of history says, so, pregnant women in Scotland need to comply or die?
	I think the Scottish National Socialist Party up there, well, delender est.
	I certainly agree with the party.
	Kevin Fox says, So what is it that makes the non-whites at greater risk?
	If it is a socio-economic thing, then what they are saying is that a black bank manager is at greater risk than a trailer park resident with a part-time job in McDonald's.
	Absolutely.
	More BS. If they did it the other way around, there would be outrage.
	It's be systemic racism.
	That's what it would be called, and it should be called that now.
	But I hate this way that leftists constantly do this thing where they have some kind of weak argument that says, oh yes, well, there might be one black bank manager, but most black people are poor, so if you look at the distribution of income, race is just easier to regulate on than socioeconomic, and for most people it's okay.
	That's not good enough for law.
	That is not good enough to justify race segregation.
	You know, socioeconomic status as well.
	Not race.
	Therefore, who cares what you're...
	This is when it comes to arguments about, for example, affirmative action and other positive discrimination.
	You see in your own argument that, you know, you were saying as a leftist would say, they have admitted that, well, yeah, the black bank managers do disprove all this.
	The Obamas are not doing as poorly as...
	Yeah, but they openly say, yeah, but on the broad swathe of things, then the majority of the distribution will be improved by this, so it's okay.
	It doesn't work like that.
	I'm sorry, it doesn't work on distributions.
	You have to be fair on the individual level.
	Freeborn JJHW says, Vitamin D deficiency is a major causal factor in having a severe bout of COVID. People with darker skin make vitamin D at a slower rate than people with lighter skin.
	This means that people with darker skin who move further from the equator become vitamin D deficient, even in the summer months, which is why they should always supplement with vitamin D throughout the year, especially in Scotland.
	Whereas people with lighter skin are recommended to only supplement with vitamin D in the winter, assuming you get sun in spring, summer, autumn.
	So if you're a gamer, web dev, shut in, take vitamin D all year round and recommended dosage.
	I'm not going to quote because we don't do medical advice, but look it up.
	Vitamin D is good.
	So...
	Last I heard on this, I don't know if the study has come out, the British government, like the race report, were looking into this and found that there was no systemic racism in the NHS. It was all bollocks.
	They also, a different group, were looking into the reasons why people with brown skin die more.
	One of the aspects was vitamin D. I don't know what the results are, so I don't want to say anything.
	Yeah, no.
	Obviously, we have to disavow what was said there, but I think we can at least say vitamin D is good.
	It may turn out to be a thing, but it also may just turn out that these groups are higher obesity or higher heart disease or whatever else.
	Yeah, there could be any number of...
	And therefore, vitamin D didn't have a huge difference.
	But I'm just going to mention it because I find it funny.
	Michael came in the other day with a bunch of vitamin D tablets and he takes it.
	And then he was just running around the office and we were all having it.
	Yeah, some vitamin D for you.
	We started making jokes about how it can cure anything, frankly.
	Broken bones, just some vitamin D, mate.
	It's a good meme, but I don't know how it can harm you.
	Chris says, how is blackface bad if I get more healthcare from it?
	Disavow myself.
	I walk into the NHS A&E. Help, help, my arm's broken.
	Well, there's a Q just rubs dirt on face.
	What about now?
	Go ahead, sir.
	Where's my health treatment?
	Look, if you're dying of COVID... In New York City, that is actually a solution.
	Oh, God.
	On police responsibility, Free Will 2112 says, There is a reason the police are the way they are.
	It is the leadership which has promoted the current police culture.
	A fish rots from its head.
	Yes.
	I mean, I've seen a lot of people talking about this, and I don't know the inside of the police institution well enough to say, but there's certainly the case that there are some terrible people in leadership making the rest of the force bad, but then there's also some terrible people at the bottom of it who are coming in full of diversity and inclusion ideas who are rotting it from that direction as well.
	So the fish seems to be rotting from every direction at once.
	There's two solutions to that.
	So the leadership part from the ex-officers we've met at various protests or spoken to people who interact with this problem, they keep coming back to the College of Policing and the guidance they give and the training they give.
	So that is an institution you have to go in from central government and just piage.
	It is your department.
	You're the home secretary.
	This is under you.
	You're the one to sort that out.
	On the people coming in with diversity and inclusion nonsense, this is where people like Kemi or Liz are the only really people in government that can solve this, which is to stop that taking place in schools and to stop it taking place by being funded directly from government into the culture, such as Stonewall.
	Well, those two have done their job on that part.
	Kemi made it illegal taught in schools.
	Liz made Stonewall defunded.
	Hooray.
	It is not up to Priti Patel, Tupash, the College of Policing.
	Yeah, so the College of Policing should be the next target.
	That sounds pretty obvious.
	I've also found that generally the older police tend to be more based and more grounded on this sort of stuff.
	I've spoken to a lot of older police or ex-police who are just shaking their heads at this.
	I know, but could you imagine spending your life in an institution like that, building up the reputation?
	And it's a vocation if you're an old policeman.
	It's not a job.
	It's a vocation.
	It's part of your identity.
	And they have a real in-group mentality as well, which is bad as well as good.
	But they're very proud of what they do, which is a good thing, because if you're a good policeman, you should do good work and you should be proud of it.
	So to then see that whole institution meet the fate that it is now must be really, merely Halloray.
	Really quite tragic.
	Anyway.
	Set up your own police, I suppose.
	Jay Young says, RE, grooming gangs, police negligence, scandal.
	It's all caused by overcorrection.
	Instead of using common sense and following the law to do the job correctly, career prospects were deemed more important than true equality and justice.
	I'm sure that's one reason for it.
	But, yeah.
	Omar says, the irony of not recording the ethnicity is that I just end up assuming almost all of the crime is specifically from diverse offenders.
	Coulter's law in full effect.
	There was someone else in the office who was particularly based on that, wasn't there?
	Well, there was actually this problem, which is that you had organizations trying to estimate the number of offenders when the data wasn't available, and it's still not really.
	But they overestimated in some cases, because, well...
	You're either going to overestimate or underestimate.
	Yeah, some groups underestimated, some overestimated, and then they would be, you know, aha, how have you overestimated?
	It's because we don't have the freaking day out.
	Yeah, because you're not recording it.
	Yeah.
	But then when you get it, it's always disproportionate.
	That's always the response, or at least the evidence.
	Omar says, caravans for rape victims, five-star hotels for refugees.
	I am literally seething.
	Yep.
	Baron Von Warhawk says the entire police force going out of their way to protect pedo gangs.
	QAnon doesn't sound so crazy this day's heart.
	Disavow.
	But yeah, like...
	No, I don't believe in QAnon, but the central argument whenever you hear it written is like, these people believe in QAnon.
	You think, what the hell is that?
	The way mainstream journals always define it is a belief that there's an international bunch of pedos.
	Satanic pedos.
	Satanic pedos who run the world and are all raping kids and you're like, yeah, I could see that.
	Do you remember when they put it to Donald Trump?
	They were like, do you believe in QAnon?
	Satanic pedos are trying to run the world and some people in QAnon think you're trying to stop them.
	He goes, is that a bad thing?
	It's like, yeah, of course it's not a bad thing.
	Yeah, I know.
	Looking at this CNN joke, I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
	That's not what I was saying.
	There does seem to be an alarming number of paedophiles at the elite of society.
	Oh, CNN, actually.
	Yes, exactly.
	Have we covered that one yet?
	Alleged.
	I think I'm usually bound to add.
	Callum says, not this Callum, other Callum, rots like this makes my confidence in the police tenebrous.
	Interesting.
	Shadowy is what tenebrous means, I believe.
	I'm tenuous, I would say.
	Sorry, I shouldn't be grammar editing or spell editing commenters.
	That's bad of me.
	Bad enough if it's just in a Western country, but when it's in one's own country and nation, how can one have trust in the people whose job it is to protect the public when the majority of the force is forsaking its duty?
	I wonder if a purge was carried out, what would happen?
	What would be left of it, if any?
	Yeah.
	Well, I think that's the point.
	I personally don't think you should have trust in the police at this point, because they've completely broken it.
	I don't think you should have trust in these institutions that were set up to look after the people, because they don't.
	The Burge as well.
	You would have to have it publicly, heads rolling, in the sense of, you know...
	These people have all been fired for these crimes or these unprofessional activities of engaging in political activities, lobbying, ignoring rapes, all the rest of it, in the papers.
	You want to get that in the public's face to restore the trust, because that is how you do it.
	Do you want to do the AOC comments?
	Sure.
	Amar Watt says the leftist's favourite dog whistle is compliance.
	They don't hate you because you're killing grandma.
	They hate you because you're displaying your membership to the outgroup and destroying their immersion in the security theatre LARP. Totally true.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	10 out of 10.
	But then AOC's on the outside here.
	Being caught out.
	Again.
	She doesn't have to follow the rules.
	She just has to make them.
	She's part of the ruling class.
	That's how it works.
	No mask.
	She doesn't have to comply.
	But yeah, this whole compliance thing is...
	I mean, I really do think the people who comply are like collaborators at this point.
	Bob Bobson says, in fleeing New York, AOC is actually doing a great job in representing her constituents.
	Yeah, which is that they want freedom.
	That's the joke, isn't it?
	Charlie the Beagle says, AOC in Miami sounds like Trotsky going to Mexico.
	Hopefully she doesn't meet the same fate.
	Hopefully.
	Yeah, hopefully.
	Disavow my own joke.
	Jimbo G says Florida is doing remarkably well for COVID cases.
	It makes sense that AOC would want to go there.
	Shame that it's only worth going to because it is ran in direct opposition to her alleged beliefs.
	Well, direct actions as well.
	I mean, this is why I didn't want to just say her thoughts.
	No, like, these people have done their actions and then fled them.
	And it's not just her.
	It's hundreds of thousands of people from New York and California, which you could directly point to.
	I mean, you can point to people like Joe Rogan, absolutely, as someone who's like, no, this is all fucking mental.
	I'm going to Texas and I'm going to read.
	And they, you know, there's plenty of them.
	And hats off to you.
	You're getting out of hell.
	Do the best.
	But then there are plenty of people, as I've found, who move in next door to Floridians and are like, I vote blue no matter who.
	Not welcome here.
	No.
	We don't take kindly to folks.
	Shoot of History says, imagining being the head of Scotland and telling people to not drink.
	Lamao.
	Yeah, good job.
	Duffy B says, Scotland is going full airstrip one.
	Lockdowns are freedom.
	Vaccines are health.
	Big science is watching.
	I want that on a shirt.
	Can we do that for merch, John?
	Write that down.
	Nikolai Mirovich says, I want to strongly recommend to all the based people of Britain to simply outsource your memes and jokes.
	If someone in Nebraska advertises a party or posts a Nazi pug or whatever, what are the cops in Britain going to do about it?
	Nothing.
	And thank God to all the Yankee doodle doodles out there, because what's amazing is every single time there's a story like Count Dankulus or whatever, and some loser is like, oh, this guy should go to jail.
	And then their website or comments is filled with people going, go to hell.
	They always go out and complain to the police.
	Every time.
	And every time the police go back and go, all these people are in America, there's nothing we can do.
	And every time I hear a police officer say before a select committee that a lot of this hate online is in America, so there's nothing we can do, I am so proud of the fact that you guys are out there just saying, no, you're tyrannical, something is deeply wrong with you, and the police are like, well, this is online hate.
	No, it is people pointing out that you're a bunch of tyrants.
	They perceive that as hate.
	Sorry, but I can categorically say that after reading that stupid report from the Home Office, it was like, memes are hate.
	You know they had Pepe in there?
	They had Pepe as in legal but harmful content that they wanted banned.
	It was currently not banned, and what was it, Baroness Boissy was saying, no, no, no, this needs to be in the banned category.
	Memes.
	Yeah, Baron Aswasi, the world expert on the meme culture.
	We probably have that podcast somewhere in the shed.
	We should dig it out, cut out all the stuff we can't talk about and publish it, frankly.
	You'll have to publish it with all of the images blurred out if you wait too long.
	We had to do that with the segment.
	We did the segment on the website, and then for the YouTube, we went, ah, crap, no.
	Jail time.
	So we had to go in and censor that part, because that's the country we live in.
	We're out of time.
	Yeah.
	Anyway, Happy New Year.
	We'll be taking out all the Christmas decorations and stuff now, because, I don't know, it's bad luck to keep it up too much, I guess.
	There will be a couple of videos that we've already recorded going up with the Christmas decks.
	Enjoy your New Year, if you're Scottish or Welsh.
	Yeah, Happy New Year.
	Hashtag refugees welcome.
