	Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Seaters for the 18th of July 2022.
	I'm I'm joined by Carl.
	Hello!
	And today we're going to be talking about mass immigration, was a deliberate attack on Britain, a possible end to Blairism, and also Reddit banning the word groomer.
	Because it hurt them too much, personally.
	But anyway, without further ado, I suppose we shall begin.
	So, the Conservatives are a Blairite party, and this has been confessed by David Cameron.
	They are what the Labour Party have made of them.
	Tony Blair has, since his tenure and began in 1997, has sculpted this country into his vision of the future, and the Conservatives are just so trapped within this paradigm, it seems that Peter Hitchens is right, and the Conservative Party must be destroyed.
	But before we begin, let's talk about how there's nothing new under the sun.
	How this is, yet again, an iteration, an echo of the past, if you will.
	There was another chap in English history who had a problem with immigrants.
	Mass immigration.
	Uncontrolled immigration.
	From the east.
	From the continent.
	People just coming along in boats, rocking up on the shores, and taking our money.
	And that man's name was Ethelred the Unready.
	And this is very, very similar, in fact, in some ways, to what is happening now.
	Now, he had the same problem with the Danes, rather than a collection of foreigners from further around the world.
	But the point of this episode of Epochs is don't adopt Ethelrod's solutions because they're bad.
	His solution was paying them to go away.
	And then trying to kill some of them as well.
	Neither of these solutions worked, of course.
	Other solutions should be found.
	Such a strong border control.
	Such a strong border control, which is incidentally the thing he didn't do.
	But anyway, if you want to support us, go and sign up and watch that because it's good stuff.
	So let's begin in 2009, when we learned that the Labour government of about 2000 onwards had specifically opened Britain's borders in order to make the UK more multicultural, as in this was a deliberate attempt at social engineering of the United Kingdom, and this was, quote, to rub the right's nose in diversity, according to Andrew Nether, a former advisor to Tony Blair, Jack Straw, and David Blunkett, three key members of the...
	Labour cabinet, and of course Tony Blair being the Prime Minister.
	He said, Isn't that just grim?
	Isn't that evil?
	So we're going to open up this country and absolutely ruin it, bring in millions of foreigners.
	I know the working class aren't going to like it, so we're just going to hide that from them.
	We're just not going to talk about it.
	Until it's too late.
	He said, And now this was written in 2009.
	Little did they know that the argument would really be, but think of the restaurants.
	Look, okay, we know it doesn't bring in money.
	Like, people say it does.
	It's a huge drain.
	Yeah, it doesn't.
	It makes demand for everything so unreasonably high constantly.
	We could never solve any problems, but...
	My coffee at Pret?
	Yes.
	Critics said the revelations show a conspiracy within the government to impose mass immigration for cynical reasons.
	Cynical is deeply understating it.
	It's openly malevolent.
	What was with the conspiracy aspect?
	It's like, oh, maybe this happened.
	I mean, they literally say privately they didn't tell the public because they knew they would hate it.
	I mean, it was literally a conspiracy.
	And it wasn't cynical, it was malevolence.
	So, writing the Evening Standard, Nether said that the major shift in immigration policy came after the publication of a policy paper from the Performance and Innovation Unit in Downing Street in 2001.
	Earlier drafts I saw included a driving political purpose, that mass immigration was a way that the government was going to make the UK truly multicultural.
	I remember coming away from some discussions with a clear sense that the policy was intended, even if this wasn't its main purpose, to rub the right's nose and diversity and render their arguments out of date.
	So this was about winning the political argument against the Conservatives.
	Socially engineering this country.
	And how so?
	I mean, to drastically change the makeup of the United Kingdom so that any appeals to cultural norms or traditions of the Anglo-Saxons became, as he puts it, out of date.
	Yep.
	The deliberate policy from late 2000 until February 2009 was when the points-based system was introduced...
	Because of the catastrophe, was to open up the UK to mass migration.
	Some 2.3 million migrants were added to the population since then, according to Whitehall estimates.
	It's 15 million now.
	15 million, at least.
	Now?
	One in four.
	One in four.
	Nether said that bringing in hundreds of thousands more migrants to plug labour market gaps was also a driving political purpose behind the immigration policy.
	So my GDP is also tacked on the end there.
	My GDP, bro.
	No one ever looks at the GDP per capita?
	No.
	Is anyone actually getting richer?
	No, but the gross number is bigger.
	Is anyone having an easier time buying a house?
	No.
	Of course not.
	But he defended this policy saying it's enriched Britain.
	Feeling the cultural enrichment, Callum.
	It's made London a more attractive and cosmopolitan place.
	This was only 13 years ago.
	13 years ago he wrote this article.
	It's not even a very long time.
	Now it's an international embarrassment of a city that nobody in this country wants to move to.
	Stabbing capital of Europe.
	I mean, literally, the people who live there who are, you know, the English, endlessly moving out.
	Yeah, so from this we know that mass immigration was viewed as a political attack on the Conservative Party, and the Conservative Party were viewed as a kind of psychic extension of the sort of native British people.
	That's how the Labour Party were looking at this.
	Yeah, an old party for an old country.
	Yes, that's exactly right.
	And that's an interesting way of framing it, which, put a pin in that, we'll come back to that.
	And so they thought they would sacrifice the interests of the working class of this country to try and conquer the Conservatives.
	This is entirely a political social engineering scheme by Blair and his goons.
	And its success of this is really quite phenomenal, because you get this sort of piece from David Cameron.
	Now, David Cameron, Prime Minister in 2010 in the coalition with the Liberal Democrats, and he is just a creature of Blair.
	And this came out two days ago.
	He published this two days ago.
	So there's no understanding, no comprehension of how he has been captured by Tony Blair and the Labour Party.
	He, in fact, thinks it's good to virtue signal and genuflect to the left about diversity.
	He wrote this in The Times.
	David Cameron, we were all white men, so I did something about diversity.
	It's amazing how a former Conservative Prime Minister would think this is a good look.
	Like, how could he think this is what the British public were complaining about?
	Oh, you know what?
	Yeah, too many white men in politics.
	Then resign.
	Yeah, well, A, resign, but B, nobody cares.
	The only people who care about that are the Labour Party.
	That was their deliberate attack, as they had already told us.
	So it's not like David Cameron can't have access to this information either.
	But he says this, right?
	Watching the Conservative Party leadership contest takes me back to the contest I fought and won in 2005.
	I was one of seven MPs taking a part.
	All of us were white and all of us were male.
	It was no surprise the field was so narrow.
	We reflected a party whose 198 MPs included just 17 women and only two from ethnic minorities.
	We're the oldest political party in the world and we looked like it.
	Now there we go.
	That's what you're saying.
	It's like an old party for an old country.
	Yeah.
	And David Cameron being like, well that's not very modern and progressive, is it?
	I'm progressive.
	Then why are you in the Conservative Party?
	Why are you manhandling and destroying the party that should be representative of the actual people who live here?
	And not just that, the ancient continuation of this country.
	Because that's the point.
	In Britain, especially in England, being old is something you take pride in.
	You know, this is an ancient church.
	This is an ancient town.
	You know, these things, the length of continuity is something we're proud of.
	And so David Cameron being like, yeah, but actually, what if we become leftists and try and arrive at year zero?
	What if I take this party and just rip out its spine so now it's somewhere that the academic agent couldn't even feel comfortable being around?
	Yes.
	I ran on a platform of change to win and was determined to modernize the party.
	Modernize.
	Hate that term.
	Yeah, me too.
	Modernity seems to be...
	I can't swear.
	It just always seems to be progressive.
	That's all that word means to these people.
	Yes, but that's exactly what modernize means.
	And so he started by addressing the appalling lack of diversity of Conservative candidates and MPs.
	It's appalling, Callum.
	Appalling.
	To me, this agenda was never about political correctness.
	It was about political effectiveness.
	Amazing.
	Right, so this is a great statement.
	It's not about political correctness.
	That's presupposed, right?
	I'm not going to challenge that value.
	Now it's about political effectiveness.
	How can I convert political correctness into votes for the Conservatives?
	So, okay, so you were literally going to allow the Labour Party to be the value-setting organ of your political career.
	The correct politics is leftist identitarianism.
	In which case, how do we win that framework?
	Yes.
	How do I win that competition?
	Says David Cameron.
	Someone who can't think for himself whatsoever.
	And so he said, well, during my first week in the job, I made a speech explaining that it wasn't enough to open the door and say, come on in.
	When all these people would see is a sea of white male faces.
	We need to get out there and bring people in.
	So I immediately froze the selection of conservative candidates.
	I said that from our broader candidates list, we would draw up a priority list, of which half would be female, and a large proportion would be from black and ethnic minority backgrounds.
	Like, I feel like I'm listening to someone from Harvard's admissions board, you know, one of these loopy, blue-haired weirdos, telling me about how there's just not enough of an X, Y group.
	Instead, leader of the Conservative Party at one point.
	Yeah.
	You know how the Labour Party want us to do everything?
	We can do it exactly that way.
	I don't want the best person for the job.
	If he was giving you direct instruction on how to do it, it would be exactly like this.
	Joe Biden now.
	Do you want the blackest and the womanist?
	Yeah.
	Yeah, yeah, exactly.
	The spirit of Blair has just conquered the Conservatives here.
	Associations and winnable seats would have to choose from this A-list.
	I mean, literally diversity list.
	And they would be encouraged to select candidates through open primaries that were open to non-party members.
	Many on the right found this hard to swallow.
	It's like, yeah...
	Why won't they just accept left-wing ideology?
	Many on the right were like, do we have to become leftists?
	And David Cameron was like, yeah.
	How else would people write rigors?
	Eat it?
	Exactly.
	Conservatives have an aversion to positive discrimination.
	We believe...
	I love the way he speaks.
	It's not we have an aversion to positive discrimination.
	What are those conservatives?
	I'm not part of that camp, really.
	Like, weird foreigners over there.
	We believe in...
	Oh, he does say we here, actually.
	We believe in people rising to the top through their own merits.
	The trouble is, this just wasn't happening organically.
	I love...
	The progress isn't fast enough.
	We need to aid progress, says the Conservative Prime Minister.
	It's not progress if you have to make it artificially.
	Exactly, exactly.
	So anyway, he says the number of conservative female MPs have barely improved since the 1930s.
	At some elections it had gone backwards.
	Oh no, we're not going forwards, we're going backwards.
	Oh no, not the conservatives looking to a better time thinking we're going backwards.
	That sounds terrible.
	But then also the words in there meaning that being white and being male is going backwards.
	Yes.
	Having those around is not good.
	My pitch, therefore, not for positive discrimination, but it was for positive action.
	But just politicians speak?
	Yeah, exactly.
	And again, that's the sort of thing Tony Blair would say.
	The party of meritocracy needed to accelerate meritocracy.
	And meritocracy means brown people.
	Says David Cameron.
	A truly meritocratic system is when you are just a woman or brown, and if you're not, leave.
	Yes.
	You don't want any white faces looking at you.
	We told associations that they could pick their candidates from the full list, but stipulated that half of the interviews had to be women.
	We headhunted great candidates from ethnic minorities and pushed them forward.
	Our approach was, whatever it takes...
	We will become the Labour Party, whatever it takes, no matter what illegal discrimination we have to engage in.
	We will do this.
	How many white men I have to put out.
	Exactly.
	How many white men have to be ejected from the party?
	By any means necessary.
	I mean, literally, it's not the most radical position.
	By 2010, we'd nearly quadrupled our number of female MPs, and in 2015 had six times as many ethnic minority MPs, and look at the state of you now.
	Look at the state of these debates.
	Everyone, and I've seen people from Peter Hitchens to Owen Jones, saying, wow, the current slate of Conservative Party MPs across the board, with one exception, are idiots.
	Really low quality idiots.
	And we'll talk about the exception in a minute.
	So anyway, The point is, affirmative action made the Conservative Party deeply, deeply mediocre.
	It made it a Blairite party, and it made it just an untenable proposition for anyone who cares about this country.
	And so Peter Hitchens is right about the Blairite party.
	I love this, because obviously the leadership election is going around, and everyone's like, so Peter, how do you feel about it?
	I mean, he says, to anyone who asks me who my favorite candidate for Tory leadership, I answer, what is your favorite disease?
	He's right!
	Stand it there, that's the tweet.
	Nothing can redeem the Tory party, Blairite, without even knowing it unless and until it dissolves itself.
	And he's so totally on the money here.
	What is your favourite disease?
	That's so good.
	But he's exactly right.
	If they're still Blairites, then what's the point?
	Yeah, exactly.
	What is the point?
	And so just to summarize what they've done, well, we know that last year they decided to bring in a million migrants.
	Tony Blair never did this.
	Tony Blair never brought in a million new visitors.
	In fact, Tony Blair these days would have been saying, steady on.
	Yes, Tony Blair was like, look, that's really going to hurt your electoral prospects.
	Because Tony Blair was actually good at politics, unfortunately.
	And there's no end in sight to this, by the way.
	Migration Watch have...
	Done an article about the government's latest projections.
	So the government is projecting another 4 to 5 million net migrants are set to come and remain in the UK by 2041.
	So by 2041, so in 20 years they're expecting it to be...
	So I can own a house by 2051, maybe?
	No.
	No, of course you can't.
	But again, this...
	I mean, I think this is very low as a projection.
	They're expecting 12 million people to come and 7 million to leave.
	At least there's a fair amount of remigration there.
	But meanwhile, the natural UK population change is projected to be minus over a million in the same period.
	And so they expect to have a massive increase.
	And the only increase is by immigration.
	I mean, I also love, just for a minute, because you remember how these endless arguments were given, in which, oh, looking at the projections, Westerners aren't having enough kids.
	What we'll do is we'll import people from around the world, and that'll just solve it.
	And this is obviously stupid on many bases, but it's not just to replace that derelict, you know, one million that aren't being born.
	It should have been.
	Instead, it's another 15 million on top of that.
	I mean, the house prices should be going down.
	Yeah.
	Anyway...
	When the left see the Conservative Party and their leadership election and what they're doing, they recognize it as a form of replacement.
	For example, someone like Nezrin Malik, the anti-free speech crusader.
	Just an honest leftist, usually.
	Yeah, that's right.
	An honest leftist.
	There are Tories of diverse origins and skin tones.
	What they need now is real difference.
	Right, okay, brilliant.
	That's great.
	Because what that means is that diversity means nothing.
	Diverse origins of skin tones means nothing.
	That changed nothing.
	All of those white faces, Cameron was like, oh God, I'm worried about the white.
	They don't care.
	They don't care.
	Why would they?
	Exactly.
	Why would they?
	This meant nothing to them.
	We are witnessing the most racially diverse leadership for a major party in British political history.
	Yeah, well, that's a big dunk on the Labour Party, isn't it?
	Candidates over the course, blah, blah, blah, talking about all of the candidates.
	If similar exercise would take place in the Labour Party today, it's highly unlikely there would be anywhere close to that many ethnic minority MPs in the running, and certainly none with a realistic chance of winning.
	Does this look and sound like a good thing?
	Well, it depends.
	It's also worth asking, a good thing for whom?
	Now, that's very interesting, isn't it?
	The Labour Party is not the party of Blair at this point.
	They're far beyond that.
	No, no, no, no.
	The Labour Party are not the diverse party that the Conservatives are.
	Blair's legacy lives in the Conservative Party.
	It doesn't live in Labour.
	Corbyn's legacy lives in Labour.
	I mean, it's definitely a mixture of Kimberley Crenshaw and Corbyn, for sure, from what I watched from the conferences.
	Oh yeah, I'm not saying it's good, but what I'm saying is, it's not...
	Actual traditional Blairism, yeah.
	Yeah, and it's not like a diverse party as they would have it.
	So, again, Cameron hasn't even got Nezrin Malik's approval here, because she's like, well, you've taken the thing that is a white structure, which is the Conservative Party, and just replaced the white people with non-white people, but it's still the thing I hated.
	It's still Anglo-Saxon.
	Yes.
	It's certainly a good thing for the conservatives who can use the diversity of leadership shortlist to score a point against the left.
	It's like, yeah, a worthless point.
	Christ.
	This is not to imply there's no place for people of colour on the right.
	People of colour belong wherever they feel they belong, which is very, very open-minded for a leftist.
	Normally it should be like those Uncle Toms.
	But she says this.
	She said worse than that.
	Oh yeah, she said a lot worse.
	There has to be a point to diversity, you see.
	That's why so many people of colour bang on about it.
	In government, its purpose should be to expand and enhance perspective so that policymaking is more compassionate, more observant of the plight of marginalised people who are never represented in places that impact their lives the most.
	Real diversity should disrupt the status quo.
	The phony version we have ended up with is concerned about changing the appearance of Britain but not its fundamental nature or the way its resources are shared.
	There we go.
	She is saying, look, it is just a replacement that has happened.
	It has not been the revolution to bring about communism that Tony Blair was promising.
	Yes, exactly.
	And you get people like Kehinde Andrews who's just saying, look, this conservative leadership is just, again, a replacement, a front for white supremacy.
	Kehinde Andrews says, it is the most diverse government in history, but also has the most racist policies of any government.
	Like, really, Kehinde?
	I think maybe in the 19th century they may have had some slightly more racist policies.
	But again, I mean, if...
	I mean, not in the UK. I'm thinking like, you know, Nazi Germany or apartheid South Africa.
	And he's like, that's steady on compared to now.
	That's a good point.
	I thought he had said any UK government.
	But no, you're right.
	Any government.
	Any government.
	So you've got a Nazi Germany, which is liberal and tolerant.
	Antebellum South or something.
	Have you seen the Rwanda Plan?
	It's basically worse than the Holocaust.
	It's worse than the slave trade.
	I mean, what are you talking about?
	He argues that black and Asian conservative ministers are essentially fronts for white oppression, and that they are able to introduce policies that white leaders would not be able to get away with.
	Again, he thinks of them as a replacement for white people to carry out the agenda of oppression.
	Sure, but also that's a very revealing statement.
	She says, there could be perfectly reasonable policies that when...
	Someone who's brown says them, we all agree with them, but when someone who's white says them, all of a sudden the media drags their name through the dirt and they are discriminated against for being white, but they're suggesting a reasonable stance.
	Which is why Steve Baker bent the knee to swell a brave man, because she's a brown woman and he's a white man.
	They were saying exactly the same things, but he was born wrong.
	So who's got the privilege in this country?
	I mean, Kehinde Andrews is directly saying it's people with brown skin.
	Yes, that is exactly what he's saying.
	And again, notice the language of replacement, though.
	He's saying, well, look, they've just replaced the white people and they're doing evil things because I'm a communist.
	It's like, okay, well...
	You can keep saying it.
	And the point about Labour being basically an ethno-party, I think, is very well made by the left-wings who are complaining about this.
	You get to the next one, John.
	Just scroll down and see the list of people.
	Scroll down and see the list of candidates on here somewhere.
	There we go, right?
	So you've got Rebecca Long-Bailey, Lisa Nandy, Keir Starmer, who are the final three.
	But if you go down to the ones who are eliminated, it's Emily Thornberry and Clive Lewis and Jess Phillips, right?
	They're all English, apart from two of them who are half English.
	So I would count them as English.
	Based on their parents.
	Based on their inheritance, yeah, their heritage.
	So, like, that's a very nativist party.
	So Tony Blair's spirit is not alive in the Labour Party at this point.
	Well, I mean, it is, you know, the ideology's still there in some respect, because Emily Thornberry being the funniest one.
	I think it's way past Blairism.
	Sure, it's on another level of, like, they're fully into wokeism.
	I just love how you've got Emily Thornberry on that list, and there's no, you know, ridiculousness of being like, oh, they're Anglo-Saxon, therefore they're white, therefore, as, you know, the white nationalist might say.
	Because you end up with Emily Thornberry, who is most known in this country, for tweeting out a picture of a white van and an England flag and going, ugh.
	Yes, I'm not saying they're a based patriotic party or anything like that.
	But the essential thing that they are is the party of the English people.
	Weirdly enough.
	Like, they're actually...
	Not ideologically, but just the makeup.
	Like, the actual essential makeup of them, which is just mad.
	Anyway, but the point is, finally, the Conservative leadership debates have been generally disappointing, and I'm not surprised that they're starting to cancel them now, because they're not exactly covering the Conservatives in glory.
	The only person who's coming out of this looking good is Kemi Badenok, because...
	She seems to be the only half-decent candidate.
	But, like, immigration is just not put on the table.
	Liz Truss will say things like, oh no, we've got problems with housing.
	It's like, okay, well why?
	Why do we have problems with housing?
	Never mentioned it.
	Something happened.
	Yeah, something happened.
	There's a mysterious excess of people needing houses.
	I mean, we must be destroying houses at a remarkable rate, because that's what we love doing in England, is destroying things.
	She said that she would amend the leveling up bill to replace centralized targets with tax cuts and reduce red tape on opportunity zones to make it quicker and easier for developers to build on brownfield land in those areas.
	Yeah, sure, just keep building.
	Just keep concreting.
	Eventually the entire country will be concreted over.
	It'll be brilliant.
	Anyway, I hate the Conservative Party so much.
	That's a great way to end.
	I really do.
	Blair won.
	You know, Blair won.
	Well, speaking of that, I can maybe give a white pill, which is a possible end to Blairism.
	I'm saying a possible.
	It's a very slight chance.
	But I thought we'd have a look and see one aspect that may be good.
	So we'll start off, of course, just by mentioning Constantine Kissin's new book club that we did on Constantine Kissin's book, An Immigrant's Love Letter to the West, because he mentions in here, of course, a lot of the problems he sees in the West directly caused by Blairism.
	I mean, the most egregious one in which he says that there were more immigrants came to the UK in 10 years than the last, what was it, like 400 years?
	Oh no, it's the last thousand.
	Since 1066 to Blair, more immigrants...
	I mean, way more.
	Way more have come.
	But anyway.
	And the point being, Constance is like, well, I'm against mass immigration.
	And they're like, but you're an immigrant.
	It's like, so?
	It's a bad idea.
	I kind of wanted England to immigrate to.
	Yeah.
	Seems to make sense.
	Yeah.
	But anyway, if we go to the next one here, this is what I want to talk about, which is just, I saw a lot of news about Kimmy Baden-Ock and her campaign, because she's the only one that I found particularly interesting, as in someone who thinks for herself is coming up with ideas that are not just, I will be politician.
	And it's saying things that are in the interest of British people.
	Yes, that's the thing.
	And there's just some news on this.
	So the first one here I want to demonstrate is Guido just reporting double digits poll lead for her with Conservative Home voters.
	So she did something with Conservative Home and they did polling of the actual people instead of just MPs, of course, in the party.
	And she just smashed them.
	I saw some other polling where she was doing really well.
	And I wonder how much of this is why they've decided, actually...
	We're going to stop these debates because Kenny's ruining us.
	It doesn't look good.
	If you go to the next one, you've got Lord Ashcroft, who decided to do a Twitter poll as well, which, you know, 73,000 votes went well.
	A guy, if you don't know, very followed by much of the party.
	So, again, revealing.
	And if you go to the next one, I thought I'd just play a clip of her speaking to make the point about how she's been campaigning.
	And everything in here I just find refreshing, to say the least.
	But this is just a short, normal speech.
	The right has lost its confidence and courage.
	Our ability to defend the free market as the fairest way of helping people prosper has been undermined.
	It's been undermined by retreating in the face of the Ben and Jerry's tendency, those who say a business's main priority is social justice, not productivity and profit, as we've panned into pressure groups and caved in to every campaigner with a moving message.
	And that has made the government agenda into a shopping list of disconnected, unworkable and unsustainable policies.
	Our democratic nation-state is the best way for people to live in harmony and enjoy prosperity has been overridden by the noisy demands of those Who want to delegitimize, decolonize and denigrate.
	And if we don't stand up for our shared institutions, for free speech, due process and the rule of law, then we end up with a zero-sum game of identity politics which only increases divisions when we need to come together.
	So just hitting on some numbers there.
	I mean, calling out the Ben and Jerry's side of capitalism.
	Yeah.
	In which you just endlessly virtue signal about how migrants should be allowed to come to Britain because I sell ice cream.
	Yeah, I'm not interested in Ben and Jerry's opinion.
	No.
	I'm for one welcome on New Nigerian Overlords.
	Yeah.
	We certainly do.
	And also hitting on the idea that, of course, we should be stuck in this intersectional paradigm for the rest of our lives until, you know, the heat death of the universe.
	Like, no, this has to end.
	And quite frankly, there's at least one way out of this, which is to just bury it, to say the least.
	And the thing I noticed with her campaign as well is she's making these speeches.
	That's just one I'm happy to pick because I thought it was, you know, something she did recently.
	But she's made a number of others that we've all seen, the Critical Race Theory 1 and so forth.
	Yeah, where she destroyed Kimberly Crenshaw.
	Yeah, and then I've noticed that all of the people in this sphere are all backing up on her, as in all of the activists and so forth, who I would say are on our side, to say the least.
	Our guys.
	As you can see here, Toby Young, Free Speech Union.
	I can't remember if he's chairman or whatever, but Toby B. I think he is, yeah.
	And obviously, great guy, like, endlessly defending the actual rights of the people in this country.
	The fact that he has to run a free speech union is a whole other conversation.
	Go and join the free speech union, by the way, folks.
	Yeah, him pointing out here that he's backing her, and also he writes here, four or five Telegraph columnists make Kemi the winner of tonight's debate, being the last debate that they did.
	endorsed it fully as well and uh it's a bit long but he gave a big old great reason as to why which is just pointed out look the reason we're in such a mess right now is because of lockdowns the reason the government ran into that is completely intelligible given that the media and the opposition everyone was calling for it however now that needs to be completely destroyed that paradigm needs to be said to never happen again yeah and the only person who even has the capability the ability to think on that basis he sees it as uh kemi and uh He's correct.
	Incredibly telling, though.
	What the hell's wrong with the rest of you?
	Well, this is what I was talking about in the first segment, where it's like, look, David Cameron's like, we need anti-meritocratic shortlists, and look at the Conservative Party now.
	It's terrible.
	As Kemi opened with that line, saying that the right has lost its confidence in itself.
	I mean...
	David Cameroon.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Over here, who has certainly lost confidence in himself.
	One of the things I imagine is he goes to bed every night, leans over, kisses a picture of Tony Blair, turns off the light and then goes to sleep.
	Walls surrounded in Tony Blair posters.
	I just can't stand it.
	Goes to all his book signings with a hat on.
	Hi, Mr.
	Blair.
	I've read this a thousand times.
	Oh, boy.
	And you can see the response from the left to her campaign as well, which has gotten better and better as time goes on, which is they all keep endorsing her.
	Of course, not in their own words.
	They would never do such a thing.
	They do it by denouncing her, which is good.
	Right, okay.
	Because, well, if the left isn't denouncing you, Oh, well, yeah.
	What are you doing?
	Oh, God, yeah.
	I mean, that's exactly right.
	If the left isn't saying, this is literally Satan, then I don't want to hear from you as a conservative.
	You've not said anything worthwhile.
	Because if they're not upset by you, then you're feeding into their worldview.
	Then they think they own you.
	That's why.
	They think they can get what they want from you.
	What they should be looking at is going, oh, no, there's no path forward here.
	This person is going to destroy all of my communist dreams.
	This person has to be stopped.
	And they're saying that about Kemi Badenok, which is nice.
	So you can see the Guardian here who decided to write a story about the fact that they hate Kemi because she dared talk about people with peripheral activities and superfluous sports staff.
	Scroll up a little bit, John, on that.
	Just the tweet.
	Miss Badenock's book, War on Woke, appears to mean a war on some of the most underprivileged and vulnerable in our society for her own political and personal gain.
	Oh.
	Thank God.
	Her own political gain.
	I was like, yes, much of the country that vote, yeah, we do not like our money being wasted on this, so we will vote for her, and therefore she gets political gain by screwing you over.
	You know where the marginalised should be?
	At the margins!
	Otherwise they're not marginalised.
	Exactly.
	Exactly.
	And what I love about this, though, is the mainstreaming of the concept of a war on woke and the sort of, the Overton window slowly shifting to the right, which we talked about the other day.
	So, no, there has been some good that's come out of the Conservative leadership.
	Such defensive language, as you can see.
	Oh, yeah.
	In which they're just like, the right wing, they're doing this war on culture or something?
	I don't know, a culture war?
	I've never heard of this.
	I've never done anything like that in my life.
	They're trying to claim that basically as soon as the right fights back, they're just being silly because they can't win the argument anymore.
	And look how well it's going for Kemi.
	Kemi's like, yeah, I'm an unrepentant culture warrior against wokeism.
	Polls go up.
	It's like, there we go.
	There we go.
	And this is good for that aspect.
	The left, that's how they respond.
	But I've also just seen endlessly from conservative MPs who are like, yeah, I don't spend much time on cultural stuff.
	That's a bit, you know, not that interesting.
	People care about the economy.
	That Tom chap who's just like, oh, I don't want to talk about any of this.
	Because it's an obvious cop-out.
	Yeah.
	You're like, okay, so what are you saying with that?
	You're saying that this issue should be just left undefended.
	It's also, he's a white man and will be called a racist.
	There's also that aspect, of course.
	Weakness.
	But that's not the only one.
	If you go to the next one as well, we have more from this.
	So this is Vice News, who endorsed Kemi by denounting her.
	Just saying that they hate her.
	Ben here used to work for the BBC, so technically there's also the BBC denounting her.
	Ross Price.
	He's made loads of articles trying to expose her.
	Salute the minister for inequality.
	They're working against trans rights!
	Oh no.
	And if you go to the next one, this is where it gets into the debate itself.
	Because of course, Kemi and this lady Penny, who no one and their dog had heard of, until five minutes ago when she became the bookie's favourite to win out of nowhere.
	Yeah, weird though, isn't it?
	Hmm, big fuss.
	And this was a part of the debate.
	This was the first debate they had, in which immediately Kemi just ended up bringing out the fact that Yeah, some previous minister, I don't know who that was, was trying to push ahead with trans women are women for some reason, even though they say they're a conservative, and Penny took that personally.
	Let's play the clip.
	When I took over as Equalities Minister in 2020, the policy that was being pushed was Self-ID. So I don't understand how that would have changed unless someone else did it in between.
	So I didn't work with Penny, but my understanding was that the previous minister who had done the role had wanted Self-ID. And that was something that I reversed with Liz.
	That's not correct, and this will all be on record in government.
	It is on record.
	Right.
	Well, you were also involved in this as an Equalities Minister.
	Who's right?
	Well, I'm not going to go around criticising other candidates in this race.
	What I will be clear about is I started in the women's inequalities job.
	There was a plan to move forward on self-ID. I believe in women's rights.
	I also believe that transgender people should be treated with respect.
	I mean, I wish Liz Truss wasn't so cowardly there.
	She could have just turned around and been like, yeah, it was Penny.
	Because it's so obvious to you.
	I mean, Penny was the one standing in Parliament going, trans women are women.
	Thanks, Penny.
	But it's who's bringing up this paradigm and saying, basically, this has to end.
	I'm going to end it.
	If you don't like it, then you're fired.
	Therefore, okay, we move on.
	We have another world to move into.
	And also the weird obsession with her being like, oh, just check the record.
	Why would you lie?
	Yeah.
	This whole leadership thing is about, oh, Boris Johnson, that dirty liar, I'm not like him, and you open your campaign with, I'm going to lie and say that I never did this.
	It's also such a verifiable lie.
	I mean, it's so obviously public.
	You got an award from Pink News for doing this back in the day.
	So on the one hand, we have Vice, The Guardian, and all the leftist outlets screeching that they hate this black woman who has some thoughts of her own.
	And on the other side, you've got the white woman calling herself conservative getting an award from Pink News.
	I also love Tony Blair and David Cameron is a member of the fan club.
	Amazing.
	Again, if any conservative is ever in any way treated well by any of these people, they're a subversive infiltrator and you should reject them.
	Yeah, 100%.
	And this continued to the second debate which came up and this is a clip, a Guido clip, this one, in which the interviewer brings it up and then Penny gets very defensive again because, well, she was like, I'll check the record and everyone was like, I've got the clip.
	Let's play it.
	I just come to you.
	We're going to touch on the issue that Penny Mordent has been questioned about and the self-identity on the transgender issue.
	First of all, you questioned Penny Mordent's honesty on that, her recollection, and then you questioned whether she'd understood the issue correctly.
	Just set the record straight.
	What exactly are you saying then?
	Was it helpful to the nature of this debate?
	I am saying that when I took on the role of Equalities Minister, We had to change the existing government policy which previous ministers had put in place.
	And what I am challenging, or what I challenged Penny on, is what that policy was.
	She is saying she did not agree with it, but I don't understand how that would be the case if she had been the previous minister.
	If she didn't agree with it, why was the policy as it was?
	Well, look, I wasn't the previous minister.
	The stuff in the papers today demonstrates what my policy was and refutes this.
	But I think this whole thing is unedifying.
	And I would just say to all four of my other colleagues and candidates here, I know why this is being done.
	But what I would say to you is that all attempts to paint me as an out-of-touch individual will fail.
	I'm the only person on this stage that has won and fought a Labour seat.
	My constituents do not elect people who are out of touch.
	That is weak.
	Transparently caught.
	Yeah.
	And being like, I want a Labour seat.
	Well, that's a concern, isn't it?
	That kind of indicates that maybe they thought of you as one of their own.
	I'm transparently lying.
	Everyone knows I'm lying.
	There's video evidence of the fact that I've lied.
	I've got awards from Pink News on me, but trust me, I'm a right winger because my constituents...
	I can't stop saying trans women are women.
	But again, it's also just like, no one asked her to lie either.
	It's just such a stupid...
	You could turn around and be like, yeah, well, you know, I was doing Theresa May's thing at the time.
	Yeah, I've changed my mind.
	Anything.
	And instead, no, just double down on Trust Me, Bro.
	And that's just embarrassing.
	And it's so much worse as well.
	Because, I mean, saying, well, look...
	You know, I was in this political atmosphere where certain arguments have been advanced, and I hadn't really thought about them very well, and they just felt intuitively true.
	And then I spent some time thinking about them, and I was like, no, actually, this leads to terrible consequences.
	I think they're wrong in the face of it.
	You could really have pulled this back.
	That would assume that she had some own thoughts of herself.
	That's probably why David Starkey has only endorsed one of these candidates.
	Yeah, as you can see there.
	And the only reason I pick out those two clips is because the rest of the debates are just boring.
	I'm sorry to dunk on it, but it's just dull, all the other stuff, except maybe the fact that Rishi Sinek was defending China, but a whole other aspect.
	But just to mention here, of course, Posey Parker has come out and endorsed Kemi in response to this as well.
	This is what I mean, like, just everyone on our side, you know, Calvin Robinson, so forth, Darren Grimes has endorsed Kemi, just being like, yeah, stick it up.
	And you can see him just being like, no, Penny Morden, literal liar, doesn't know what a woman is, go to hell.
	Very true, as well.
	You'll also know, we got the news before we started, apparently they've cancelled our future debates because of things like this.
	Because Kemi keeps winning.
	Do you want to believe violence?
	Look, all you have to do is just not lie and do the right thing, and Kemi seems to be the only person who's prepared to do that.
	But people won't think you're a liar and do the wrong thing.
	It's not rocket science, guys.
	And also, I hate, I mentioned earlier, these people were like, oh, it's not a big deal.
	Okay, next one, please.
	The NHS, still unable to say we're winners.
	Oh, of course they are.
	I'm sorry, but yeah.
	The institution we all, you know, give our souls and lives to.
	Creepy stock photo as well.
	What's going on there?
	That is weird, isn't it?
	They write in here about pregnant people.
	There we are.
	Young people, pregnant people, and babies.
	It's like, okay, all the comments are just like, woman, woman, woman, woman, woman, woman.
	From the TERFs as well.
	Although I just wanted to mention something I digged out.
	Penny seems to be delusional.
	Like, genuinely delusional.
	I can believe it, yeah.
	I haven't read the book, but some guy unheard has, and he gave us a review of her book.
	Weird, to say the least, and 100% Blairite.
	Oh, really?
	So, some quotes from here.
	Modernization starts with Parliament, then ripples towards the BBC, the military, the monarchy, the sciences, and the universities.
	What modernization means is never explained.
	It is taken as a synonym for good.
	Fantastic.
	Well, no, no, that's exactly what David Cameron was doing as well.
	This is pure Blairism.
	It's like, well, we didn't want to look like we weren't modern.
	It's like, why?
	Modernity's gross.
	Mordon moves on to her plan mission.
	Quote, we must rethink our institutions if they are going to regain popular support, she declares.
	It has to be a top-down as well as a bottom-up approach.
	Okay, then.
	So we, the social engineers of the government, need a top-down approach or else the people at the bottom won't support us.
	I mean, it's literally Tony Blair coming through her mouth.
	Government must do more, but due to its inefficiency, many of its tasks can be devolved to private charities.
	Big corporations are thinning out the state, but growth requires lax regulations and lower taxes.
	Progress will come from protecting dissenting minority opinions.
	What?
	What is this?
	Trying to serve two masters.
	I'm trying to sound conservative, but I support everything in the left one.
	It's obviously blue Tony Blair.
	I have to say some things because I'm painted blue.
	I'm obviously a Blairite.
	But I do approve the President of the United States being banned by Twitter.
	That is disgusting.
	Yeah, I mean, the author here writes it, perfect.
	The lack of unity here, the looseness of the associations, tells us Morden is not a structured thinker.
	She has no philosophy, aside from the lazy, whiggish belief in things can only get better.
	I mean, that's literally...
	Tony Blair, you won't remember this, but that's literally the song Tony Blair came out to.
	100%.
	Oh, gosh.
	They also write, she would like much more immigration, the average Tory member probably realises.
	Oh, I believe it.
	We won't get to find out how much that is, because they've cancelled the debates.
	Yeah.
	Wonder why that is.
	Because Kemi Badenock was on the stage when she was about to eat her alive.
	Speaking of which, she is the only one, I've noted, that has said anything about immigration.
	And it's in this article here, in which she just writes herself, quote, We need to reconsider the demand side of housing, not just the supply side.
	I mean, like, it's...
	Good for Kemi for being the one person who's going to talk about it, but it is such a low barrier.
	Yeah, it is baby steps.
	This is the whole right-wing zone, really.
	Do you remember Claven saying, a Republican will say, women are women, and the crowd goes wild!
	It is true.
	Our side is a bit depressing.
	But again, I'm not in any way trying to take anything away from Kemi, because she's probably operating in a particular environment where she's like, if I'm going to approach this, I'm going to have to do it Gently, you know, softly, softly.
	The rest of them have decided that the political correctness of endless mass migration is correct.
	Now, how do we work in that paradigm?
	Exactly, it's just presupposed and, you know, just build more houses, Tom Arwood style.
	And this is, again, what I mean, which it just turns around with a chisel and goes, look at that paradigm.
	Deal with this instead.
	I mean, literally the podcast we did the other day, that we need to deal with the demand side.
	People rightly recognise that building more homes while doing nothing to bring immigration down is like running up the down escalator.
	We'll never get to where we need with that approach, and we won't persuade people to accept more homes if it is being done due to immigration failures.
	Oh, that's very good, because mass immigration is an immigration failure.
	In fact, all immigration sounds like an immigration failure from that paradigm, which is great.
	Love you, Kemi.
	Why are we building homes just for immigrants?
	Because we suck at immigration.
	We fail on immigration.
	That's right.
	I'm a conservative.
	An actual conservative, yeah.
	If we can bring immigration down to a substantial level, we can then protect green spaces for our children and precious agricultural land.
	Good idea.
	Again, another great idea.
	It's like, what if we conquer it over the whole country?
	That's right, I'm Liz Truss.
	What if we don't, Liz, for five minutes instead?
	What if the foreigners just live in their own countries where they are at the moment?
	I know that this island is the only inhabitable zone on Earth, but everywhere else, I mean, it's just a wasteland out there, I presume.
	It's not like anyone has ever left this island, surely, and seen.
	And so controlling immigration is important to manage the pressures it puts on housing and public services.
	Building confidence in the government's ability to control immigration is an important foundation for ensuring a cohesive society as well.
	I mean, just...
	Every conservative should be saying this, but it takes Kemi Bainock, and I hate to say this because she's a black woman, that she has the freedom to say this.
	You can say that, but then you also have Rishi Sunak, who is not a white man.
	That's true, but he's not a woman.
	Who instead is too busy counting his money.
	But the point is, Steve Baker couldn't say this.
	Steve Baker would be called a racist, he'd be dragged through the press, and then the party whips would be like, look, Steve, just shut up.
	Shut up, you're a white man.
	I hate that framing, frankly, because he can if he just has the balls to.
	Yeah, but he doesn't.
	He's going to get all this pressure put on him, and he's a spineless, limperistic libertarian cuck, and will just bend the knee.
	Because there's the funniest example I've ever seen in this country in our politics, which is Desmond Swade, who was caught doing blackface.
	And this obviously went to the press.
	The party turned to him and said, Bro, you've got to apologise.
	And he went, No.
	Our chairman's black.
	Make him go out there and defend me.
	And the black chairman went...
	Alright.
	I wasn't offended by it.
	Looks just like me.
	He was cosplaying as me.
	That's a joke, but it's just the fact that Desmond Suede is so popular because he goes out and says things that are true, like Kemi, and it's just like, yeah, as long as you're popular, you can do things.
	You don't have to bend the knee.
	You can, but that requires a certain level of moral courage, and someone like Steve Baker just can't do that.
	You don't believe it.
	But anyway, this is also actually pro-free speech, which is neat, as you can see here.
	Oh, wow.
	Basically just saying, yeah, censorship, to hell with that.
	The example in here being given that saying women are women would become a crime under this law.
	We should not be legislating for hurt feelings.
	Two thumbs up.
	100%.
	If you go to the next one as well, the Americans have also started to take note.
	Oh, wow, great.
	This I'm really interested in because Americans usually don't need to go crap about our conservatives because they're useless.
	However, actually building some bridges for once over the pond to make connections, as you see here with Chris Rufo taking note, yeah, we can actually work together on trying to fix the West instead of just, you know, the UK being a disappointment in that regard.
	And I thought I'd just send this off with Rich Rishi, because I didn't realize how bad this was, but it's really not great.
	As you can see here, this is a clip Nigel Farage put out, and you've got to think, like, for who's going to win, and if there are any Conservative MPs or members watching.
	This is something that's really been on my mind, because he seems to get a sort of a pass as, like, you know, the guy who's in government, therefore he can lead us, I swear.
	But think about it, like, okay, here's a clip of him that Nigel Farage put out, and this is probably going to be on every advertisement thing for Labour ever.
	Let's play what he says.
	I have friends who are aristocrats.
	I have friends who are upper class.
	I have friends who are, you know, working class.
	But I'm not working class.
	It's just like, okay, yeah, I know it's a smear.
	But it's a smear because it works.
	It's why it's going to end up being used.
	Because he is rich as hell.
	Go to the next link, just very quickly.
	The joint fortune of Rishi Sunak and his wife is £730 million.
	That's a lot of money.
	That's a lot of money.
	I didn't realise it that much.
	Nearly a billionaire.
	The couple own four homes, worth an estimated 15 million, two in London, one in Yorkshire, and one in LA. Their Kensington Mews home, which is estimated to be worth 7 million alone, has five bedrooms, four bathrooms, two reception rooms, spread across four storeys, and a private garden, of course.
	How did he make all this money?
	He made it through the family, it seems.
	Oh.
	Yeah, of course he did.
	The property in Yorkshire is a Grade II-listed Georgian mansion.
	I mean, literal mansion.
	Okay.
	Set across 12 acres and includes an ormental lake.
	Of course it does.
	He also got planning permission last year to build a swimming pool, a gym, tennis court, as well.
	Because it wasn't developed enough, presumably.
	Oh, look at this.
	Dominic Raab defended Sunak's place on the list, saying, I think it's fantastic that you've got someone of British Indian origin showing people in our country that you can get to the top of politics.
	Oh, shut up.
	I... I liked Rob as well.
	Yeah, I know.
	But Blair identity politics will do.
	I want someone who has the same concerns as me, knows what it's like to have your lives ruined by some chancellor who makes inflation 10%.
	Or, why don't we outflank Labour from the left?
	Of course.
	And they go into the details here, which I'm not going to go through because it's not that relevant.
	But essentially, loads of money from his family, and also he became a millionaire in his 20s.
	Lucky him.
	Yeah, great for him.
	But do I trust him to actually win?
	Of course not.
	Like, imagine if your Labour campaigning team I mean, if you had to run against a guy who's a millionaire in his 20s.
	Oh, you'd be like, brilliant.
	Worth 700 million.
	Perfect.
	Has openly said he has no working class friends.
	I'm literally going to destroy this man.
	And is the man responsible for raising taxes and destroying the economy, which won't affect him because he's a millionaire beyond belief.
	And also the inflation.
	That's meaning you can't afford to eat.
	I just, easy, easy peasy.
	Although apparently there's one more thing in here which also isn't good.
	The CCP have endorsed him.
	Right.
	Yeah.
	Right.
	So, right, okay.
	So everyone based has been endorsing Kemi.
	The CCP has endorsed Rishi.
	Right, okay.
	That's very interesting.
	Rishi Sunag's good example, Leifang.
	This is a CCP outlet writing in here.
	They gave a line which they endorsed him as the only candidate with a pragmatic view of developing balanced ties with China.
	Right.
	Okay.
	So you're giving him money.
	Right, that's worrying.
	But anyway, I'll end that there, because I've gone on for long enough.
	But certainly, I can see one aspect, or at least one candidate, that there can be an impossible end to Blairism.
	By the time this goes out, they'll have eliminated one more person, which will be Tom.
	Let's not laugh.
	And we'll see where the votes lie, and see if she has any chance.
	But either way, ugh, God, you absolutely stay at the candidates.
	But it's nice that there's one glimmer of hope, right?
	There's one person who managed to get somewhere that's actually doing okay, who we could actually be able to say, yes, I'd be happy with that person running the country, because I think she'll do something that's in our interest.
	Maybe immigration should be lower.
	And the right goes wild.
	I know.
	But she's good on other issues as well.
	She's good on other issues.
	Anyway, so it turns out that Reddit have decided to ban the term groomer.
	So, I mean, you know, like if there was a Crofts Reddit or something, you know, any sort of show jumping Reddits or anything like that, too bad, because that's gone.
	Because it turned out that the right realized that actually what the left has been doing is kind of grooming children into its political ideology and to really kind of divorce them and despoil any kind of innocence they may have had as being children.
	And this, well, they reflected that remark.
	They represented that remark.
	And so it had to go.
	But before we start, if you want to support us, go to thelotuses.com book club and check out our new book club about Michael Knowles' Speechless.
	Now, I was, it was Harry and Connor who did this, and they had nothing but very, very good things to say about it.
	Because Michael Knowles has actually, he's not just been like, you know, free speech good, right?
	It's like, obviously free speech good.
	But he's also gone underneath the hood to start talking about the philosophical roots of everything that's going on.
	I won't spoil any of it, but it's very, very good.
	Anyway, moving on.
	Let's begin with, what does groomer mean?
	Well, Urban Dictionary actually has a great definition of it.
	There are lots of definitions of this, but the Urban Dictionary one pretty much is the best one.
	A groomer is someone who builds a relationship, trust, and emotional connection with a child or young person so they can manipulate, exploit, and abuse them.
	Yeah.
	That's really good.
	Probably call them grooming gangs.
	Yeah.
	And this is exactly what left-wing political activists have been doing in schools, on the internet, and anywhere else they can get their grubby hands on children.
	I mean, for example, you can notice the 4,000% increase in transgender people and children for transgender treatments to Tavistock, which, let's be fair, probably not...
	Like, natural?
	Organic?
	Oh, perfectly natural.
	It's not like the media are endlessly promoting this.
	It's not like every kid's show is trying to push this on kids.
	One of the things that I've noticed from my own children is that they'll say that it's being treated by, like, the power structures in the schools as if it's trendy.
	Is it really?
	It's trendy, is it?
	Yeah.
	Like, look at it.
	Like, is that trendy?
	Anyway...
	Well, they never read the regret stories.
	No, but it's not even that.
	It's like, is that cool, though?
	Or is it cool to be like a Giga Chad?
	I would have said the opposite.
	Anyway.
	But yeah, so this massive increase, 4,000% in 10 years.
	Some educationalists have previously warned that the promotion of transgender issues in schools has sown confusion in children's minds, and encouraging children to question gender has become an industry.
	And so the question is, well, why would they be doing this?
	It's like, well...
	Power, obviously.
	Political power.
	If you go to the next one, this is human rights campaigning.
	This is a Democrat organization.
	You can see that this is the continuing fight for equality.
	Together, we elected Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
	We're going to pass the Equality Act through Congress and ensure protections for LGBTQ people nationwide.
	This is political power.
	That's what they're getting from this.
	They expressly say that they're getting political power from this.
	And of course, they're getting money from this.
	Loads of money.
	Give us your money.
	Look, here's 15 organisations that you can donate.
	Republicans will put you all in camps.
	Give us money and they won't.
	Exactly.
	So political power...
	Just give us three bucks and then we'll stop the camps.
	Money.
	And also a form of social capital, which is really strange, such as, you know, the Drag Queen Story Hour, as Leo's put here.
	This article talking about it is a good summary he's got here.
	Drag Queen Story Hour UK has claimed that far-right neo-nazi groups are disrupting its tour of primary schools.
	Mate, that Nazi group is Mumsnet...
	But he's not wrong.
	But the point is, what kind of person wants to dress up as a drag queen in front of children and read them stories?
	So, I mean, what I'm going to call social capital...
	The imagery of a bunch of British mums being Nazis is ridiculous.
	It is ridiculous.
	But the point is, the question is, what is this person getting out of doing this to children?
	Now, I'm not going to say that they're all people with This is a great article by the Washington Examiner.
	And they say one group of activists, this is exactly the reason why this has to be done, one group of activists hosted a sexual education summer camp for children in Kentucky last year called Sexy Sex Ed Camp, which featured workshops on gender exploration, BDSM, being a sex worker, self-managed abortions, and sexual activity while using illicit drugs.
	So I'm not saying it's all about money, power, influence.
	I think there's a significant cohort within this organization that want to diddle kids.
	Have your kids had an opportunity to explore condoms?
	Why would they?
	They're kids.
	Yes, no, my children haven't, you disgusting paedophile.
	Why are you asking them, is the question, isn't it?
	It takes repetition before kids master the knowledge.
	This means they should have many exposures to condoms.
	What?
	Is this illegal?
	This must be illegal, surely.
	One of the camp's organizers, Tanya Turner, has bragged about working with school systems as she says she tries to find ways to include her curriculum in the classroom setting.
	This curriculum presumably includes her belief that children of all ages, including toddlers, should be encouraged to masturbate.
	She believes that toddlers masturbate.
	They don't.
	Toddlers do not masturbate.
	Hang on.
	But, like, you can't...
	So, they must know...
	What, that these are a bunch of weird pervs who just want to diddle your kids?
	It's not rocket science.
	Yeah, I mean, literally.
	Tap, tap, tap.
	Yeah, it's the meme of the wolf with the rouge on the cheeks being like, I just want to educate your chickens.
	But anyway, so they were complaining that this had been weaponised.
	Rightly so.
	It's like, you can't say that we're groomers!
	It's like, well, you just really look like groomers.
	So I said I wanted to kill everyone, and everyone started using that to say I was a bad guy.
	I was like, yeah.
	Yeah, I love this article from NBC News.
	The most prominent slurs centre on accusations that LGBT people and their allies are paedophiles, using the word grooming, which the term has been weaponised online and now appears almost constantly on many social media platforms.
	Well done, lads.
	Keep saying it.
	Keep using it.
	If they're grooming kids, you should be able to call that out.
	Use it appropriately.
	Yep, use it appropriately.
	Data from the social media platform Reddit, analysed by Jeremy Blackburn, an assistant professor at Computer Science at Binghampton University, Found that 100% increased since the beginning of the year of discussion of grooming in conjunction with various LGBTQ slurs.
	The majority of subreddits that are adopting the rhetoric have a pretty long history of content moderation concerns, and definitely not what I would consider LGBTQ-friendly.
	Well, that's actually probably what's going to happen.
	While it's not exactly surprising to me that the rhetoric has been adopted, I'm somewhat surprised the rhetoric was so quickly adopted.
	And he is right that this blazed across the right-wing ecosphere like wildfire, but that's because it was accurate, and it applied.
	An overabundance, even, of evidence of people doing this.
	Yes, it's just everywhere.
	And claiming that they were allowed to do it because, well, it's LGBT month.
	Therefore, I need to dance naked in front of your children while simulating a sex act.
	And if you don't like that, you're a homophobe.
	Could you imagine standing there with Biden's executive order on Pride Month?
	Which is like, look, it says right there.
	Yeah, exactly.
	And so Reddit was like, okay, yeah, that's a good point.
	We need to ban this word because this is basically the new N-word for gays.
	Reddit banned it because under its hate speech policy, as well as any reference to LGBTQ people as pedophiles.
	so now even those who are actual pedophiles you can't even say that about them because they're lgbtq so it's a nice nice thing for them to hide behind it's almost like they're saying look pedos come over here and we've got a method of you accessing children safe space for you yeah i mean you literally like i know ma'am that he is a pedo but you can't call him that because he is gay yeah right uh don't care Yeah, that's exactly right, actually.
	The vile slur.
	I love Pink News.
	They write, like, the most extreme things.
	The vile slur, which conflates LGBTQ identity with paedophilia, has been increasing online, and has now been banned by Reddit as hate speech.
	It's not the footage that does that.
	It's the slur that does that.
	It's not the criminal convictions that do that.
	But what I love about this is it seems like a big self-report.
	Anyway, one journalist explained that they enforce the hate speech policy on content that utilizes the groomer libel.
	So what if we just say about people who are actively grooming?
	Like, you know, the previous one we saw in the Washington Examiner.
	Anyway, so the journalist was always like, no, it's your move, Twitter, as in expecting Twitter to now ban the G word as well.
	That'd be interesting.
	There are, of course, activist groups against LGBT and grooming.
	Such as one group called Gays Against Groomers, which is actually really hilarious.
	Because it's like, you know, a bunch of California gays.
	So they're like, you know, sort of funny, snappy things.
	But it's against the grooming stuff.
	And they're saying, no, this is disgusting.
	You're a weird pedo.
	Stop it.
	You know, not in my name sort of thing.
	And it's good for them.
	You know, more power to them.
	Let's hope they carry on.
	But they make a good point.
	They say, we stand firmly against Reddit's decision to sense the word groomer from their platform as an anti-LGBT slur.
	We're not groomers.
	Exactly!
	We're not groomers, so why are you calling us groomers?
	Exactly right.
	Equating the word groomer as an inherently anti-LGBT slur asserts that LGBT automatically implies groomer, which is an insult to the millions of us within the community who strongly oppose the sexualisation and ideological indoctrination of children.
	By banning this word from their platform, in such terms, Reddit has not only advertised inadvertently expressing their support for the grooming and abuse of children, but also paints our community as a whole as those who support and engage in it.
	We find that reprehensible and offensive, which is a great statement.
	Completely agree.
	I also love just the historical narrative here, because the push for homosexual toleration or acceptance has always been pushed for by groups, and then we've got to the point that you might think, okay, the Christians might be the opposite version of that, where they're pushing back to try and weaken homosexual acceptance or toleration, and instead it's Reddit and groups like that who are like, yeah, by the way, every gay person, also a groomer.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, you're the ones actively destroying this, well, actually quite nice thing we used to have.
	Yeah.
	We're trying to keep I mean, I personally know quite a few gay people who despise all of this stuff and would doubtless endorse this statement instead.
	But those people aren't Redditors.
	They don't use Reddit.
	We actually have a picture of the average Redditor.
	Oh, do we?
	Yeah, from actually...
	No, not even an artist's interpretation.
	This is a forum called Our Average Redditor.
	Oh, okay.
	So, I mean, you know, just saying, this person's like, don't call me a groomer.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	All right.
	Which version should they go into?
	Yeah, yeah.
	Friends rights are human rights.
	But definitely don't look at this guy's search history.
	Anyway, this has started blowing up nicely, memetically, as it were.
	If you can get that one up, that's great.
	And the thing is, right, the trans flag really does have that kind of ominous childlike quality to it, because it's pastel baby colours.
	It's like, okay, and now we're not even allowed to call you groomers.
	It's like, okay, you're just really making the rod for your own backs here.
	But Predator is quite a good one, I think.
	And so I found one and posted one out on Getter.
	So if you want to go follow me there, but...
	It's a really good way of isolating those people who are...
	Not who have untoward motivations.
	You know, because obviously you've got gay people who just want to live their lives and be normal, and you have these weird people who need access to your children because they'll never have children of their own to do whatever they're trying to do with.
	And that's them.
	Very nice.
	But that's actually where I'm going to end that.
	The link's left on the end.
	I forgot to take out, John.
	Sorry.
	But yeah, Reddit's banned Groomer because they were like, hey, I resemble that remark.
	We certainly do.
	With that, I suppose we'll go to the video comments.
	Some things are worth fighting for.
	Dramatic music
	Oh, my God.
	But for people listening, apparently there's some new movie that's going to be based on Dahomey Amazonians.
	It's called The Woman King.
	Yeah, and The Kingdom of Dahomey definitely crushed them.
	And there's listed there the French ones.
	No, yeah, the French crushed them.
	Sorry, yeah.
	It's just the fact of like, oh my god, Yas Queen, we can make the movie.
	And it's like, yeah, how's it end?
	Yeah.
	What are you going to do?
	Like...
	I wonder if they're going to mention slavery as well.
	Well, that's what I was going to say.
	I was making a big deal out of this because, look, Dahomey literally was an empire of slaves, slave traders.
	And so it's like, yeah, look at these glorious black people from Africa.
	We're venerating them.
	It's like, these are the people who enslaved the black people who live in America now.
	Yes, queen.
	A woman queen, the feminists say.
	And the black Americans go, wait, hang on.
	Yeah, I mean, like, you know, these are...
	Well, A, imagine losing to the French.
	I mean, to be fair, lots of people have lost to the French in previous eras, so, you know, we're not talking about the modern French.
	But just the idea that, oh, we're going to make a film that black people love.
	It'll be the real-life Wakanda.
	Oh.
	Which black people?
	I mean, in Nigeria, they're waiting for this film.
	Yeah.
	That's my great-granddad.
	Very good guy.
	Made lots of money.
	Don't know how.
	There's something else I love about Kemi.
	It's just whenever she talks about slavery.
	Because, you know, her blackness, as the leftists would put it, is in a whole different paradigm to how Kimberly Crenshaw came over and was talking in a Yankee accent about what it's like to be black.
	And Kemi's like...
	Oh, that's a good point.
	You know, Kimberley Crenshaw talking to Kimmy must have had the slow dawning realisation.
	This was the slaver.
	Yeah.
	And she's the Adiga Chad.
	Yeah, exactly.
	And Kimmy's like, I look down on you.
	Yeah, literally.
	I'm literally better than you.
	Also, like, what is your mentality?
	Because there's the thing, like, the Nigerians, like, sure, they became a British protector and whatnot.
	But they didn't lose their sense of stealth or their confidence, whereas, like, the black American narrative, especially in the intersectional movement, is one of such victimization that you might as well be, like, a femboy.
	I mean, like, you're the Western femboys if you're believing in intersectionalism and the black Americans.
	Yeah, but also, like...
	You must really hate the Nigerians and the Ghanans and stuff like that.
	You're Tariq Rashid's butt-breaking...
	Anyway, but it's just like that whole dynamic is amazing.
	I wish they'd go in a room together and do another debate.
	That would be good.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	people listening we're looking at trees Thank you.
	Nice scene.
	All right.
	That was interesting.
	Let's go to the next one.
	Throw them a fiver.
	Even if you're not interested in the product, you can consider that to be your part.
	Every little bit counts.
	So every one of these independent content creators.
	Okay, I've been toying with this idea for a while, and now after watching that, you've convinced me, Carl.
	I am going to try and crowdfund a USA and UK book tour next year.
	Can you guys suggest any really good crowdfunding platforms?
	Crap, yeah.
	Gibson Go?
	Is that what you said, John?
	I'm pretty sure they're the ones who didn't screw up the truckers until the government did.
	Right, okay.
	I have no idea.
	I think they're all suspect.
	Alright.
	My understanding is Gibson Go are the only ones so far that are not proven to be...
	Right, okay.
	Okay, well there we go.
	So there you are.
	Thank you.
	It's cool, though.
	It's nice that you're going somewhere nice in your mobile home, too.
	Don't have anything to say.
	You're asking me to take them to war.
	War.
	If John Boyega manages to portray King Gezo sympathetically to the audience, then, I would argue, he should deserve an Oscar.
	But that does require his character as having been written completely historically accurately.
	It's going to be funny.
	Why did they think this was a good idea?
	I don't know, but presumably historical illiteracy.
	But I've seen loads of people going, no, I don't like it.
	I think this is going to be a gem.
	I think it's going to be great for us.
	For Hollywood.
	I don't know what they've done.
	I'm looking forward to watching it.
	So I'm actually going to be leaving for Greece in less than a week.
	For those of you who don't know, this year is the two and a half thousandth anniversary of the Battle of Plataea.
	And a group of friends and I are going over to a reenactment at the battlefield.
	We're also going to be visiting a bunch of museums and ancient temples and historical sites.
	So I'm getting real excited for this trip.
	I'll try to get some good videos for you guys while I'm there.
	I'm excited!
	Dude, what's the day?
	I'm interested.
	You don't know anything about that, Plataea.
	No, no, no.
	I know.
	I tell you, it's not my area of history.
	I love World War II. No.
	Not about Oji Day.
	You know about Oji Day?
	No.
	Sorry, it's still a national holiday.
	It's the day when the...
	It's literally called No Day.
	And it's because it's the day when the Greeks turned around to the Italians and just went, No.
	Oh.
	The Italians were like, give us all the countries.
	We went, no.
	And then the Italians evaded and lost.
	And then had to get the Germans to come down.
	Yeah.
	Again, there's a lovely song about it as well.
	They're just like, oh yeah, that spaghetti-eating Napoleon is trying to take us over.
	It's like...
	Anyway.
	Yeah, thanks, Juan.
	Alright, so picture this.
	You know your dad's at home and in danger.
	One of your brothers has been hanging around with a dodgy crowd.
	They're on their way to probably kill him.
	You were out at the time, so you've not got your keys on phone, so you rush home in person.
	You've not got your keys, you've not got time to f*** around, so you just kick the door in to try and get to your dad and warn him about how much danger he's in.
	But he doesn't listen to you explaining that he's in danger.
	He doesn't recognize that you're trying to help him.
	He doesn't realize that you would only have done that in dire straits.
	He's just complaining about the fancy varnishing on his door.
	Juan Magnus.
	Honestly, strikes me as kind of ungrateful.
	Anyway, that's why Magnus did nothing wrong.
	- Told you.
	Moving on.
	Afternoon.
	Long time no see.
	Here for one final shill.
	I've got physical copies of our album Mortuary Melodies.
	Head over to deliberatemiscarriage.bigcartel.com Pick up yours today.
	Last gold here, sort of month for me, for a while.
	We're getting married on a month, and you can take some money.
	Good to see you guys soon.
	Take care.
	Congratulations.
	Yeah, always good to see people doing creative things.
	And that's the video comments, so let's go to the written ones on the side.
	Good point.
	Charlie says, regarding mass migration, do you remember during Brexit when the Ramonas said they were going to leave an EU country?
	Remember those same Ramonas said Brexit would force all EU nationals to leave, meaning there would be an employee shortage.
	Funny how the UK population increased despite Brexit.
	Yes, but if you look at the breakdown of the statistics, you'll see it's non-EU migration that shot up and EU migration that went down.
	It still didn't go below zero net.
	No, of course not.
	Important to keep in mind, because everyone keeps saying it's like there's been a mass exodus of Europeans and now they're not here anymore.
	It's like, no.
	There's still loads.
	But over that time period, still more have come in than left.
	So actually we have more people than ever from that region.
	So that's this narrative that there are problems caused by them.
	It's just proportionally speaking, for some reason the UK government is like, yes, we'll just...
	I love Pakistan!
	Pakistan number one!
	Yeah!
	Are we trying to get a trade deal with them or something?
	Like, what's going on?
	X, Y, and Z says, Tony Blair, the English cleanser minus the body count.
	Do you know about trade with Pakistan?
	How ridiculous that is?
	No.
	UK to Pakistani trade.
	They get loads of money out of us.
	We get nothing out of them.
	There's nothing to sell them.
	What would they want?
	Our version of Islam, I guess?
	Anyway, the English Clinton, minus the body count, take that as you will.
	Unless Rotherham, etc.
	are due to his policy.
	They are due to his policy.
	Even then, the Clintons are taking notes.
	Then there's a statue that would deserve to be torn down with prejudice if some D-bag thinks one should be erected.
	Do you think there'll be a statue of Tony Blair at any point?
	Oh, yeah.
	I've heard about some cringe Blairites in the Labour Party somewhere.
	In the Conservative Party, you mean?
	Oh, yeah.
	David Cameron polishing the statue.
	No, no, they'll turn up.
	They won't be officially the ones who, you know, erected it, but they'll be the ones to cut, like, the ribbon and kiss his feet.
	David Cameron will literally spend his evenings polishing it so it shines.
	But on the plus side, at least I'll have a statue I feel like legitimately vandalising.
	You know those brass statues where, like, the penis and the nose are golden because people keep touching it?
	Yeah, yeah.
	It's gotta be that.
	You know, David Cameron down every night.
	Yeah, with his boots.
	No, no, no.
	Nitrocellulo's doormat says, how can any more reasonable person consider mass migration has ever been a boon to the economy?
	Look at the areas where a large number of immigrants live and they are predominantly considered deprived, leading to an increased black hole of taxpayers' money into these areas.
	I mean, you know, we agree.
	It depends on the group of immigrants.
	There's a little bit more resolution there, but largely right.
	I mean, people think, you know, millions of people in Pakistan are like Indian billionaires.
	They're not.
	I don't know who's surprised by that.
	But he's right.
	It becomes a black hole of taxpayer money.
	But also, like, they're just looking completely wrong.
	So, yeah, but, like, we could have 50,000 people who earn 100 grand a year, which would be great.
	Or we could have 50 million people who earn Yeah, I'm going to have to do a podcast on this, I think.
	Tony Blair talking back everything that he'd done, basically.
	Tony Blair versus Tony Blair.
	Yeah.
	If so, just seeing the absolute state of the Tories now, can't in good mind call them conservatives, really highlights the damage done from lions we've fallen to sheep, lambs.
	Tom says, got handed a housing application today.
	The person applying is earning $1,500 a month on housing benefits, child benefits and disability benefits while not being in work.
	And I've got to pay my taxes.
	Grand and a half a month for not working.
	Why am I here?
	I don't know.
	Self-respect?
	You know the word grift gets used a lot in politics for people who just say things.
	That's a grift.
	That's an actual grift.
	She's applying for a five-bedroom house.
	Being unemployed and getting a five-bedroom house.
	I don't have a five-bedroom house.
	I'm not having a business.
	I work really hard!
	I don't know what the background is.
	What have they done to get here?
	Well, she's applying for a five-bedroom house, so two or more of her family members can come from abroad.
	For reference, I make less than her each...
	Come on!
	Come on!
	What?
	Working in a housing association is the biggest black pill there is, champs.
	I believe it, man.
	I believe it.
	You won't know, but there's a streamer called Tommy K who does like Hearts of Iron videos.
	And he occasionally dabs into politics and his views.
	Everything is super Green Party, like bring down the speed limit, so emissions or anything, anything minor.
	And as soon as he gets to immigration, he becomes AFD because he worked in the government during the crisis.
	And he was in the fraud department.
	It was just like endlessly, you guys are taking the piss.
	Well, they are.
	Any little thing.
	I mean, he's like, for reference, I make less than her each month after tax.
	I do.
	What you want to do, mate, is go over to France, get on a boat, and then sail over.
	You make loads very shortly.
	Paul says...
	I'm from Iran.
	Well, what are they going to do?
	Ask me for my ID? Yeah, exactly.
	I threw that in the channel.
	Paul says, the Conservatives are products of the same university system as the Progressives.
	They have had the same indoctrination.
	It's no wonder a massive Tory win changed nothing.
	You need to burn down the entire educational system and start over, metaphorically speaking, of course.
	JJHW says, David Cameron chose Liz Truss as a diversity hire, which I didn't know, but I can totally believe.
	The same Liz Trousey made threats against the Russians.
	The Russians responded by putting the nuclear forces on a hair trigger.
	We're now closer to global thermonuclear war and extinction than ever, all for diversity.
	Yeah, but this is the point, isn't it?
	You're obviously reducing the quality of the candidates by having shortlists.
	End of story.
	M1Ping.
	I'm a progressive.
	That's right, I'm a conservative.
	David Cameron, probably.
	No, certainly.
	Absolutely certainty.
	Free Will says, Which seems to be true.
	And to be honest with you, I think that's probably right.
	I don't think the Conservatives...
	I think Badenock will just get, you know, manoeuvred out.
	You know?
	I mean, don't get me wrong.
	She's great.
	And she's obviously very popular with the Conservatives as their base.
	And she seems to be quite popular with the MPs as well.
	But whatever the...
	Yeah, exactly.
	Exactly.
	She'll get...
	It'll be Penny Morden.
	Rishi Senek.
	It'll be one of those two, most likely.
	In which case, there'll be an offer, I imagine there already has been, that she'll get a cabinet position and it'll either be somewhere like, I don't know, defense or something like that, where she won't have any ability to actually do the great things on culture that only she can do and the rest of them can't, apparently.
	Or she'll get put in some lower position and then it'll be argued again or she doesn't have enough experience at BPM. Something like that.
	But the point is the internal mechanisms of the party will move in their mysterious and inscrutable way and suddenly...
	To screw her over.
	Yeah, to screw her over.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Supreme Duck says, I used to think politicians were just incompetent and that's why they happen to make everything worse every year.
	Now I think my fear of some understanding was an understatement.
	They might have even been doing it on purpose.
	Blair was doing it on purpose and Cameron was like, yeah, he's got a good point.
	We are all white men.
	That's a problem.
	And so there we go.
	David Cameron, according to Longshanks, quite literally referred to himself in an unwise moment of candor as heir to Blair, while today George Osborne called him the master.
	Why?
	Why?
	I just can't stand it.
	Because we've been called the Nasty Party, so let's try and be leftist.
	Oh god, the communists are saying we're nasty, so from your perspective, yeah.
	It's not possible to overestimate the effect, and thus the damage Blair smiles and ask the Campbell's ideas had on the Conservative Party.
	Yeah, no, totally captured.
	The Conservative Party has been crafted in Blair's image.
	They are everything that he wanted them to be.
	Anyway, JJHW says, You can always judge a man by the quality of his enemies, Oscar Wilde, in reference to Kemi Badenock, which is very true.
	Nicholas says, Kemi would easily win my vote in a general election based on everything I've read so far, but something is telling me that we'll have Rishi to be our next PM going to election.
	I guess I'm back to voting monster-raving loony party.
	Do you think it'll be Rishi or Mordent?
	Who knows?
	But, well, Morden's now the bookie's favourite.
	Richie's the most MPs.
	I mean, there is no real difference between those two from what I can see.
	Like, I don't actually know what they disagree on.
	I mean, Penny doesn't stand for anything.
	No.
	From her own words and her book.
	Then there's Rishi.
	I can't get over the...
	If you run Penny, just pure politics for a moment.
	Screw anything that's right.
	You run Penny, it's a new face.
	You can make some bull about how she's different.
	But the Rishi one, I just can't...
	He's the guy who fucked up the economy.
	And so you're going to run him as the leader, and then people aren't going to remember that, hopefully.
	And also, he's so out of touch because of his money.
	And he also seems so fake and plastic anyway.
	Yeah, yeah.
	This front of, ha ha ha, yeah, I'm just going to be whatever you want me to be because I don't care about you at all.
	But also, he's been in the public eye as part of the Johnson government.
	So, like, with Penny, no one knows who the hell she is.
	And he's the guy who stabbed Johnson in the back.
	Not that I particularly care about Johnson, but, you know, public traitor.
	But a large part of the rhetoric I'm seeing from these groups is just they say things like, oh, we need someone who's different from the old government because that's, you know, too smeared now.
	Yeah, I mean, he's absolutely continuity government.
	But, like, you can't get away from that without doing it.
	It's just pure politics.
	I just don't understand the reasoning to do those two candidates.
	But even then, like, come the next general election, really, is Rishi Sunak the guy who's going to deliver an astounding Conservative victory, is he?
	Penny Mordaunt.
	Liz Truss.
	I was watching the debate and, you know, a lot of people complain that, you know, blue on blue violence in the party is bad because it causes ripples.
	It's like, no.
	I watched Andrea Leadsom listen to her in the car with John.
	She made a fantastic point because when she ran against Theresa May, she says, yeah, there's a lot of smears in the media right now, the interviewer.
	She's like, isn't that horrible?
	She goes, no.
	No, this is good.
	Like, you need to be raked over the cold in its entirety because you're not going to get a better time when you're running for PM. It's going to be even worse.
	Yeah, look at how they treat Boris, for Christ's sake.
	And Boris is generally popular.
	Exactly.
	So you really do have to go through hell, because if you want to play kid gloves when you're picking the new leader, you get creamed in the general election, then you can enjoy the consequences, idiots.
	Enjoy being in opposition.
	I love how realistic she was.
	No, that's great.
	More blood.
	Blood for the god blood.
	Bleach Demon says, possibly, but I mean, she'll at least get to choose the cabinet.
	And she doesn't have to choose, like, MPs.
	You can choose whoever she likes.
	So, you know, Kemi Bay-Knock with Tommy Robinson.
	Naja Farage.
	I mean, if you could be a one-term Prime Minister...
	But just wouldn't that be the funniest thing in the world?
	But also, you run the bills to Parliament, because really all you've got to do is from there get votes in Parliament, right?
	And if you come up with a really funny bill, what are they going to do, vote against it?
	Like...
	But yeah, no, she does seem to be the only person who's not terrible, which is great.
	I'm going to stuff it is long.
	Him on Tweedy.
	Longchance says, there's a small part of me that hopes Kimmy doesn't win, because then I'll have to be invested and hope she does well.
	If Rishi or Penny or Liz win, then it's just two of Klaus's puppets fighting each other, and I get to sit back and point and laugh at the circus.
	But then there's a chance that the Conservative Party can actually be destroyed, and we can replace it with something useful instead of crossing our fingers, that each next leader won't be wearing a skin suit.
	The thing is, it's the British public's fault.
	It's like, oh, I don't like the Conservatives.
	I'm going to vote Labour.
	It's like...
	Yeah.
	Just...
	Okay.
	Whatever.
	Just...
	Although I do have some good news.
	As I've said before, there's no real point getting too invested in this at this point.
	Because you don't get a vote.
	You're not an MP. So we just get the last two.
	And then if you're a party member, you get a vote then.
	That's it.
	Are you a party member?
	Yeah.
	I told people, even if you don't believe it, join the party and then you can get a vote in the leadership elections.
	I told this in every video I did about British politics.
	You can't say I wasn't forewarned.
	Yeah, that's true.
	Generico says, remove the rots, root and branch.
	Kemi seems based now, but she's still a politician, and if the Dark Lord of Davos won't use her directly, he'll just use everyone around her and leave her impotent to change anything meaningful.
	What do you reckon?
	It's possible.
	I guess we'll see.
	As I say, someone's getting eliminated today, and then we'll see where the votes lie.
	Yeah.
	Danny says, I'm reminded of George Carlin's line, if voting really mattered, they wouldn't let you do it.
	So we end up with two choices, with either being the same choice, or one being bad, so you have to pick the other that they wanted anyway.
	If Kemi makes it through to the final two, I'd be amazed, and maybe there'd be a little bit of hope.
	I don't think she's going to make it through to the final two, which is a real shame.
	Anyway, Confused says, I saw a headline the other day, an era of Western dominance ending by Tony Blair.
	Tony Blair's like, yeah, so I've ruined the West.
	And it looks like we've lost.
	So get used to not being the dominant power on the Earth.
	It's like, thanks, Tony.
	At least you rubbed our noses in diversity.
	So we'll all be holding hands, black, white, and in the concentration camps of China.
	Yes.
	We'll literally be breaking rocks together in the Chinese gulags.
	It's an old Frankie Boyle joke.
	Is it?
	Yeah.
	I look forward to a multicultural future in which all of us are standing side by side in Chinese concentration camps.
	Literally when Frankie Boyle was based.
	Look at that.
	Comrade Starmer says, These curriculums literally sound like the brainchild of certain gangs in Telford, Rotherham and Oldham.
	Talking about the wonderful curricula for the sex ed.
	It's just not wrong.
	Christine says, what do you think about Sean Head's video about the overuse of the word groomer like racist and Nazi?
	I haven't seen it.
	I think that she had a point since she pulled up quite a few examples of when defenders of a female predator who had sex five times in a day with an underage boy used groomer as a slur towards people who thought she did something wrong.
	I haven't seen that.
	I haven't seen the video either.
	That's why I say use it at the appropriate times.
	I mean, she's obviously a groomer.
	I mean, I've had...
	There are previous examples of when there's a thing on the right which gets overused.
	Yeah.
	It happens on the left.
	I haven't seen that one.
	These defenders seem to be right-wing, but I don't know if it might have been a bit cherry-picking.
	Maybe.
	I haven't seen it.
	Maureen says, I dislike that grimmer and other terms like it are used so much online as a common slur.
	It tends to reduce the gravity of the meaning.
	On the other hand, I don't know how else to describe what exactly most of these people are doing.
	And, I mean, I agree with you, you know...
	Best to use it appropriately, obviously.
	But the fact that they took it so personally means it was an incisive ideological attack, and we shouldn't let up on that.
	If it's effective, use it.
	Robert says, the word groomer is hate speech, but you should hate a groomer.
	So, hmm.
	Brandon says, Reddit, ban it.
	Normal people.
	What groomer's on your site?
	Reddit, no.
	Criticism of groomers is banned.
	Yeah, good point.
	But...
	Chairman Powell says George may no longer be in charge of Reddit, but her censorious ideas remain.
	The groomer label really fit the alphabet perverts, and they are trying to do everything possible to wash it out.
	The censorship stage is an admission that they failed.
	That's a good point.
	That's interesting.
	Yeah, we should really look at it that way.
	You know when a right-winger says, I'm sorry for saying something based?
	Right, now it's onto the persecution.
	Sorry, the sentencing.
	Yeah.
	In the same way that, okay, well, they've started to censor us, so...
	It's an admission.
	They've admitted they've done something wrong.
	It's an admission.
	They can't win the argument, yeah.
	Colin says, life-changing surgery that makes the subject sterile.
	Promotion of homosexuality.
	Scaring a generation into not wanting to breed because of climate change.
	Not just allowing, but actively encouraging abortion.
	Call me a cynic, but I think I can see a pattern here.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Raj.
	I saw a tweet about Orban.
	I don't know if this is new policy or old policy.
	Apparently if you're a woman in Hungary now and you have four kids...
	Yeah, you're exempt from tax.
	Income tax, never again.
	Man, I want that.
	I'll get the fourth kid.
	But I just thought...
	People aren't having enough children.
	What do we do?
	Import the entire world?
	Or, you know, do a policy like that?
	Well, you know, import the entire world's easier, I presume.
	I would love to not have to pay tax.
	I think it's only your wife that gets the tax break.
	It's fine, she can own the business.
	Rat Check was right.
	Says, how is groomer a slur?
	It's not a sexuality or race, it's an occupation.
	One that should be shamed.
	Sounds like people are getting nervous at the sounds of approaching woodchippers.
	Yes, that's exactly right.
	Anon says, by banning the term groomer, they have admitted it.
	Unfortunately, they know that we know that they don't care and they have control over avenues of power.
	The new term floating around is predator.
	Yeah, I know, we use that.
	It's good.
	Rick says, the trans epidemic is sponsored by George Soros if you go back far enough up the money trail.
	Yes, but almost everything is if you go back far enough up the money trail.
	Mark my words, Soros is responsible for disrupting society and causing all the social issues we have to deal with, including Antifa, the trans activists, and the outright boldness of the pedos trying to join the alphabet people, making it difficult to deal with what would otherwise be the real issues, such as Bill Gates responsible for the upcoming famines and Fauci being responsible for the pandemic.
	Also, Klaus Schwab wants to eliminate the Earth's population down to a manageable 500 million by starvation and war.
	Just note, I can't demonstrate any of those things.
	So, just saying, this is his opinion, not mine.
	Isn't it strange that these people seem to be the literal four-horsemen of the apocalypse?
	Things are going to get worse before they get better.
	That is correct.
	Chris says, Which is a good point.
	I mean, even if you can't transition and then have an abortion.
	So like, you know, trans women are women.
	It's like, okay, I'm a trans woman.
	Now I have an opinion on abortion.
	So yeah, but only women are allowed opinions on abortions.
	But I can't have an abortion and I don't know anything more about it than I did when I was a man.
	This is so muddled that I don't know if you noticed that Vox was arguing for a man's right to abortion.
	No, that's hilarious though.
	Does a man not have a right to an abortion?
	Yeah, it was in response to Roe v.
	Wade, and they were like, hang on, but trans men have a right to an abortion, so then men have rights to abortions too, so actually, men, you should get on board with your right to abortions of being threatened.
	There is an argument here, it's like, look, if you wanted to have the true enlightenment world, men would have rights to abortions, they would never need it.
	They also have the right to having babies.
	Yeah.
	This wouldn't have needed it.
	Like Monty Python.
	Yes.
	Kevin says, the only trade deal Pakistan, except with the UK, is if we sold them...
	I'm not...
	I'm not going to read that.
	I won't read that aloud.
	Oh, God!
	Yeah, I think they'd take that trade, but we're not doing it.
	Henry says, I commission a statue of Tony Blair just so I can yeet it into a river.
	That's a good idea, actually.
	Brandon says, they're going to start digging for oil in the channel, but they have to dig through a giant layer of ID cards at the floor.
	Martin says, greetings from Flanders, Jordan.
	What if we build a statue of Tony Blair in the most ghetto area of the country, and then we just take pictures and the background is obviously hideous, and then there's your legacy.
	Yeah, well, I mean, this is...
	That's not bad, isn't it?
	Greetings from Flanders, says Martin.
	How much is a statue?
	Jordan Peterson predicts that war in Ukraine would trigger another mass migration like the Arab Spring.
	By the way, do you think that something has changed about Peterson since he joined the Daily Wire?
	It would seem that he gets lots of criticism from Eastern European content creators and comments on YouTube about his video about the war, mostly about how he has misjudged the situation and gets facts wrong.
	Apparently the same goes for his message to Muslims.
	What do you think of Jordan Peterson joining the Daily Wire, Callum?
	Seems like the right place for him.
	I don't know what else he was going to do with the rest of his life, but...
	Well, I mean, be famous and successful?
	I mean, he's doing that already, but then he had that huge breakdown.
	I don't know what's going on in his life.
	I'm assuming it's the right choice because he made it, and he knows more details there about his life.
	He just seems angry at the moment, though.
	Yeah, I don't know how much of that is the drugs.
	He did seem to change after that.
	Did you see his message to Muslims?
	I haven't watched it.
	What was it like?
	To be honest, I kind of liked it in a weird way.
	Because to us, it sounds a bit mad.
	What was the message?
	It's not a message for us, it's a message for Muslims.
	What was the message?
	Hey, you should start building bridges with each other, Sunni and Shia, and maybe Jews and Christians too, may I dare.
	Because you know what the real problem is?
	Being leftists.
	Just underlying it is just like, yeah, we're going to get the Muslims on side, we're going to perform the Brotherhood, take down the leftists.
	Yeah, communism is Haram, how about that, guys?
	That's a good point.
	I think we're out of time, though.
	I'm just looking at how to make costume statues.
	We can do that later.
	Just in the chat if you'd help crowdfund for a statue in Rotherham.
	We'll end on that note.
	If you'd like more from us, go to losias.com.
	Otherwise, we'll be back tomorrow at 1 o'clock.
