Latest Antifa Victim 00:02:02
	Hello and welcome to the podcast of the Road Seaters episode 1358 for Thursday the 19th of February 2026.
	I am your host Captain Darling and I'm joined with you today by Josh and Firas.
	Hello.
	And today we're going to be talking all about the latest victim of Antifa over in France.
	We're then going to be talking about how reform have basically adopted leftist rhetoric and tactics now.
	There's no other way to put it.
	And then we're going to be talking about the justice state of democracy in Britain.
	And I have to tell you, I don't have a high opinion of it.
	Democracy in general?
	Yeah, democracy manifest, yes.
	Good reference.
	We do actually have some announcements though, ladies and gentlemen.
	The first is that we finally have we have managed to break containment at last.
	Harry AA and I recorded a wonderful, the definitive defense of the Star Wars prequels, the most important discourse currently going on right now.
	So if you want, you can go over to the website.
	It's on the premium content, £5 a month, and you can listen to us tear apart red letter media.
	And basically, Carl has kept this video back for so long because on watching the first five minutes, it sent him soyjacking.
	So if you want to watch it, go on.
	It's fantastic stuff.
	And also very important to tell you all is that at 3 p.m. today, we're going to have a new interview out with Rupert Lowe.
	He sat down, came into the studio this morning to record it.
	So it's straight off the back of him announcing Restore and, you know, as leader of Restore Britain and all of the optimistic and wonderful things that that should hopefully bring and a second wind to the patriotic movement across Britain.
	70,000 members already.
	70,000 members already, and I'm sure already much higher.
	So that'll be on the website from three, ladies and gentlemen.
Far Left Under Pressure 00:15:54
	All right, then, Josh, tell us what you know.
	I know nothing.
	I know nothing.
	Okay, serious face.
	You've been all jovial, and I'm going to make you all miserable.
	As usual.
	So in France, recently, a young right-winger, a Catholic, was beaten to death in the street by some radical left-wingers and some members of Antifa.
	I don't know specifically the membership of each one or whether they were affiliated, but either way, they're radical left-wingers and they beat him to death for pretty much nothing.
	There's a video of the incident, which warning, you don't actually see anything graphic, but just to show you the horrible nature of the attack itself.
	Here we go.
	He's just on the ground and he's being beaten by a large group of people.
	I think that's enough.
	You get the idea.
	I don't want to, you know, show anyone anything too horrible.
	And the person on the ground was this fellow, a 23-year-old who was studying computer and data science in university called Quentin Duranck.
	I think it's pronounced.
	I'm not entirely sure.
	I'm sorry.
	I do want to pronounce it correctly, but unfortunately, I've got this affliction called being English.
	So he was on the sidelines of a protest against a university conference attended by Rima Hassan, a European member of parliament for Jean-Luc Melenchon's left-wing party Le France in Soumise.
	And he was there to protect people who were protesting, who were Nemesis Collective, which is a very cool name for a group of people.
	Depends who you're the nemesis of, I suppose.
	That is true.
	But they get their name.
	Okay, the thing is not working, as usual.
	I'll pull it in.
	So here they are.
	So this is a group of women.
	And it's a group for women aged between 18 and 30.
	And it describes itself as both feminist and identitarian.
	So like anti-immigration, sort of French identitarian.
	And it's named after the Greek goddess of retribution.
	And yes, you can see that they're looking very serious there.
	Here they are.
	They're also being described as identitarian as well.
	But he was there to basically make sure they were okay.
	Because I've seen videos of them at events.
	And grown men, foreign men, just start attacking these small French women very violently as if they're attacking a man trying to do considerable harm to them.
	And so he turned up as a man to protect these women protesting the event, which is a legitimate political protest.
	They weren't doing anything to encourage violence.
	They were there exercising their right to protest, as the French are very renowned to do.
	Making sure that no one's beating up women, which as far as goals go, yeah, it's a good one, right?
	Making sure that women don't get beaten up for no reason.
	Well, it's one of the talking points that even the establishment is more than happy to constantly parrot out, you know, every week, oh, we must protect our women and girls, we must protect our women and girls, because they see, you know, by the identitarian hierarchy, women obviously is further down it than men, and so they are entitled to some degree of protection and, you know, guarantee.
	However, obviously all of the politics of the West contradicts the safety of women.
	Oh, it certainly does.
	And that's basically their argument is that it's interesting because in France there's basically a feminist group for everything.
	And their argument is we don't like Islam, we don't like immigration, it doesn't make us safe, which is perfectly reasonable in my opinion.
	That's very true.
	And if women are concerned about their safety, making sure there are very heavy standards on what kinds of men you let in your country is one of the best ways you can police that sort of thing, right?
	As well as harsh sentences for wrongdoers who are domestically produced, I suppose.
	I see that Lamonde is going with calling him a far-right activist and saying that it's just a death, not a murder.
	Oh, we'll be getting to that sort of thing.
	It's ridiculous, really.
	Yes.
	Death of far-right activists in Lyon.
	Just dropped.
	Just on the street.
	Not murder.
	Not disgusting beating.
	But no, just death.
	Just tapped the Aaron McIntyre sign about journalists.
	Yes, very much needs to be done.
	So here we have this, where even the Guardian's reporting on it, where they're saying one of the people that was arrested, one of the 11 over the killing, they actually say killing here.
	Well done, Guardian, you're doing some journalism.
	Of French, they do drop far-right.
	They're trying to still slur him from beyond the grave.
	But they mention that there's a parliamentary aid among the people arrested, which seems to suggest, well, if they're helping members of French parliament, doesn't that suggest that, well, the left members of French parliament are doing things to agitate people like this.
	If he can exist in that ecosystem, then there must be some degree of political approval for this political violence.
	And as we'll see in the next couple of links, that is very much the case.
	And it's actually absurd how inhuman it is.
	Like, when a left-winger dies, even the ones protesting ICE in a very stupid way and putting themselves in danger, we're not saying, you know, oh, what a wonderful thing.
	It's great.
	You know, one less left-winger in the world.
	But we talk about the human tragedy of it.
	And that's just not reciprocal here.
	There's no appreciation for human life coming from at least the left-wingers who are vocal about supporting it.
	Well, especially, can they just expand on that point?
	Of course.
	Because it really does come down to the fact that a hundred years ago, you know, if you'd have said there is going to be large sections of your population that will actively bring harm to other, you know, your own citizenry, to your own people, because of its unwillingness to let in the third world who are going to endanger your women, that would have been unthinkable.
	But now, as we see in Britain and France and America, there is a good size of the population, enough to really consider in terms of, you know, if you're going to join up to become a member of ICE or if you're going to stand for a movement that is just a people's movement against mass immigration, All of a sudden, you have to contend with the fact that there are parts of your population that will harm you with any chance they can get.
	And try to kill you.
	With the license of...
	And try to kill you.
	Yeah, with the blind eye of the state.
	Not just with the blind eye of the state.
	I mean, if your parliamentary aides are going around the streets speeding up people, clearly exactly as you said, Josh, which I think is a point that should be hammered home, that means that these political parties endorse this kind of violence, either implicitly or explicitly.
	That means that the ideology that motivates them is a violent one that permits this.
	If it was the other way around, I'm sick and tired of saying if it was the other way around.
	We know exactly what the coverage would be like.
	But we also know that for these guys, everybody on the right is a subhuman.
	Well, this is part of the headline, isn't it?
	That's why The Guardian quick to assure you that it was a far-right activist, so actually you shouldn't think too badly about the killing.
	It was just a French far-right activist.
	Yeah, well, there are plenty of people with an external moral compass, which is to mean none at all, that are willing to do this sort of thing, that are happy to have their morality defined by their social circles rather than themselves, and are willing to go out and just beat people to death for their politics, not realizing that, yeah, whoever's doing that for whatever cause, you're doing an evil to the world there, aren't you?
	And we can see them just actively being hostile to the idea.
	So if you're not brushed up on your French here, this is a video of a French left-winger saying, I'm in favor of Quentin's death.
	That's what it says up here as well.
	as he's removing posters immemorial to him, if you want to hear it, here it is.
	He's even got the TikTok hand gestures there, that thing.
	Just overexposed to online nonsense, really.
	But if your ideology drives you to tear down memorial posters, like I was annoyed at all the Black Lives Matter stuff.
	If I saw a poster of George Floyd, I wasn't tearing it down, even though he was a junkie.
	And, you know, if anyone deserved it, it's someone like him, right?
	You know, robbing pregnant women at gunpoint.
	I think that that's a pretty immoral thing to do.
	But they didn't mention that.
	This guy, no criminal record, by the way, the one who was murdered, was a student trying to study to better himself, devouted Catholic.
	Seemingly everyone who knew him thought he was a good person.
	If that's who you're killing, if that's what your politics leads you to, then you have to at least have some self-reflection there, right?
	And it gets even worse.
	So Melenchon actually called for the Nemesis Collective to be banned.
	So the group of women he was protecting that he got beaten to death for protecting, he's then coming out and saying they should be banned because it is dangerous.
	It attacks our meetings.
	It attacks our leaders.
	It threatens us with death.
	They were protesting outside of a university and they were protesting someone speaking and they had to have people go there to protect them.
	And if you're scared of a bunch of young French women as well as a grown man, it's not the best look, is it?
	Let's be honest.
	But it is obviously politically motivated, this, isn't it?
	It's as naked as can possibly be.
	Well, this is a man who's openly gloated about his party's ambition to just replace the French.
	Yes, I mean, there's just video footage of him doing that.
	It's not even, don't even try to hide it.
	So yeah, of course he'd want to ban women from speaking out against it.
	Not just that, it was the left that sort of really brought the tactic of protesting any random speaker at any event.
	It was them who instigated this, at least in the modern era.
	This is something that they constantly do.
	But because they have a highly developed friend-enemy distinction, they will say that their enemies do not have the same rights as them.
	And it's that simple.
	It's why I find that the idea of pointing out, well, the left is doing this, but the right does it and they treat us differently.
	Well, yeah, the world is unfair.
	That's the way it is, unfortunately.
	And these are not fair-minded people.
	These are people who see everybody else who doesn't agree with them as an enemy.
	And we'll say, this is far right.
	You know what we should do to the far right?
	Etc., etc.
	That's the entirety of their worldview.
	It's based on enmity.
	Well, I've seen the exact thing that we've talked about in theory go on in practice to do with this, where they're saying, oh, he was a neo-Nazi, blah, But, of course, he wasn't.
	But they're calling him that so they can justify killing him.
	Yes.
	They call you Nazis so they can kill you.
	They don't kill you because you're Nazis.
	That's the whole point, right?
	Exactly.
	And so it's not just him either.
	The mayor of Lyon banned a march in support of him after he was murdered by Antifar.
	He's a member of the Green Party or the ecologists.
	And so obviously a political motive there.
	Same antiquity.
	And he's using the justification here to ensure a peaceful environment and prevent any violence.
	Banning this demonstration is the only solution.
	Or you could police the people that would want to do violence to a demonstration in support of someone who was murdered.
	But that's exactly what happens in Britain.
	Every time somebody wants to march in an area that has become a no-go zone, the police would rather ban the march instead of actually doing their jobs.
	Well, that was the very first thing in British history where the Met police banned UKIP from marching in Whitechapel because of the danger it would pose to the march in their justification.
	And in that instance, it's a heavily Muslim area, very militant.
	So they were probably onto something, but the solution is not you give in to the violent people.
	Well, the solution highlights the problem.
	It does.
	Of course.
	If there was no need to ban it, then everything that UKIP was saying about it would obviously not be true because they'd just be able to walk through Whitechapel and there'd be no problem.
	But there is a problem, so they're right.
	Yeah, well, even when UKIP didn't turn up, a bunch of masked men turned up, you know, ready for violence.
	They weren't exactly handing them flowers and saying, you know, we forgive you for hating us.
	They were ready to beat them up or kill them even.
	Who knows?
	It didn't happen in the end, thankfully.
	And you also have things like this, where the media is basically just trying to cover for the left.
	This is BBC News world.
	Student death puts far left under pressure.
	Or the core far left.
	How did this student die?
	You know, did he spontaneously combust?
	You know, like, what happened?
	You'd never be able to tell anything from that headline.
	It could be that he was left-wing himself and he died in some sort of negligence thing.
	You couldn't possibly tell.
	And lots of the comments rightfully pointed out here.
	Samson here.
	Yeah, there he is, man behind the technology.
	Pointing out that it was Antifar doing it and they're doing it deliberately.
	Even Inevitable West is mustered saying something truthful here, saying that he was murdered.
	Well done.
	You've learnt.
	My bullying worked.
	I'm pretty sure Leo had a good comment here talking about how it's like describing the Kennedy assassination as he had some sort of head problem and it stopped the motorcade.
	Like, you know, head issue causes motorcade to stop.
	It's the same thing.
	And I had my own shot at satirizing it, even.
	Can't speak.
	Archduke Franz Ferdinand's death from perfectly natural causes puts Europe in a spot of bother.
	It's like saying that, isn't it?
	Like, be real.
Tensions on the French Riviera 00:07:15
	That is so obviously misrepresenting the reality as any normal person would present it.
	He was beaten to death.
	It wasn't just a student death.
	He was beaten to death by the far left who are being cast as the victims.
	They're always the victims.
	Even as they commit murder.
	Yeah, it's ridiculous.
	And I think tensions in France are particularly high at the minute, especially with the left, because the right are doing especially well.
	I saw this talking about the French Riviera on track to be a major place of victory for the far right, as Politico says.
	By the way, French Riviera, very nice.
	I was there last September.
	Surprisingly not diverse.
	It's because it's a nice part of France, I guess.
	And so...
	Didn't they ban Le Pen from running, essentially?
	Trying to, I think.
	Ban her from running, and they will find all kinds of excuses to stop that.
	They went as far as having Christine Lagarde of the ECB.
	She is considering resigning before her term expires so that Macron gets to appoint somebody from within the establishment to run the European Central Bank and to make sure that a future right-wing president isn't allowed to have his pick for the European Central Bank.
	So they're rigging the game at every level, from the electoral to the financial to the street level.
	Then they're claiming to be the victims and that everybody against them are the evil people.
	Their worldview is so rooted in a friend-enemy distinction that it can only be addressed in the same manner.
	Well, you don't extend olive branches to people who want you dead, do you?
	Simply.
	Yes.
	And it's even to the extent of French polls showing that Bardea might even win the presidential election in 2027, which is interesting.
	Yes.
	And I think that this has agitated the left especially because even though their establishments are doing everything in their power, it seems like it's only exaggerating the popularity of the right.
	And of course, the problems that make the right popular in the first place are only getting worse.
	So this is the thing, isn't it?
	Mel and Sean and the rest of them, they can advocate for banning the nemesis group.
	They can advocate for all of these things, but what they can't do is abolish the sentiment, right?
	They can ban the speech and all of it, but they can't ban the actual feeling.
	Well, you've actually cottoned on something there.
	So Macron recently was saying that free speech is pure BS if nobody knows how you are guided through this so-called free speech, especially when it is to be guided from one hated speech to another hated speech.
	So this entire framing to me is insane, especially insane to say out loud.
	I think it maybe helped him because he said it in English and, you know, out of principle, French speakers will cover their ears.
	But yeah, you're basically admitting that without the government regulating what you can say, there is no speech.
	Yes, they're admitting that unless they police people's words and thoughts, they cannot remain in power.
	A level of playing field would politically wipe us out.
	That's the sentiment.
	That's what Macrot is admitting.
	But in the modern day, you can't hide the fact that you're rigging the game against the right.
	You can't hide the fact that you hate people speaking freely in what they believe and you want to censor them and legislate away their ability to speak and imprison them for speaking.
	Two quick points, if you'll permit me.
	Of course.
	First, in one of his emails, Jeffrey Epstein was saying that there is a problem with free speech online and that they're losing control of the narrative.
	Second, you're seeing this attack on free speech being so completely coordinated every single time.
	In 2018, when Epstein was writing, within a few weeks of him saying that we had the sort of major purge of the online right, and now you're seeing the Greeks, Keir Starmer, the Australians, the Canadians, they're all doing the same exact thing.
	And what's happening in France, trying to ban Le Pen, is happening in Germany, try to ban AFD.
	In Romania, they literally just sort of stole the election on completely false pretexts.
	And we're supposed to believe that they're the good guys.
	Colour me unconvinced.
	And my point here at the end is that you're going to get a lot more people like Quentin if you continue to behave in this way.
	And that's not to say that there are going to be a lot more people dying, but more people like him are going to get involved in politics by behaving in this manner, by gloating about someone dying, about preventing his decent treatment, by trying to basically cheat and gamify elections in your favor.
	That's not going to do anything to stop things like this happening.
	It's just going to radicalize people further.
	And yeah, they've basically fumbled the handling of something that should have been presented as a tragedy.
	And instead, they politicised it for their own undoing.
	Well, obviously, I'm just so sorry for the poor man and his family and all of his friends.
	He sounds like he was a great one.
	I'll just go through some of the Rumble rants.
	Got Johnny Logo for $5.
	So, morning, lads.
	Running on three hours' sleep after handing in my assignment for my degree.
	Waking up just to tune in.
	Priority is 100%.
	Here's five books.
	Well, thanks, Johnny.
	Done for managing to get it in from.
	Have a coffee, have a tea, have some tea.
	Believe me, I remember those late nights in the university library.
	That's a random name says the world is unfair.
	Our clemency is the only reason these lefties are treated fairly in our society.
	If they keep acting this way, however, all fairness will disappear when things turn medieval.
	Well, you know, that is entirely the point, isn't it?
	They have set the precedent for how to deal with their own countrymen who disagree with them.
	And they see their own power slipping away from them, you know, more and more.
	And with that, they won't come to us meekly and ask for forgiveness.
	They will get more and more aggressive until the bitter end.
	That's a trajectory it will take.
	Habification also points out: yes, it is stochastic terrorism.
	Agreed.
	The engaged few $5 says, sounds like Whitechapel will have a return of a guy named Jack.
	Well, honestly, it was probably safer during the time of Jack the Ripper than it is now, ironically.
	Sigjil Stone 17 says, I prefer my comment I made on Leo's post.
	Otherwise, excellent performance at Ford Theatre.
Battered Britain Gets Desi Big Boss 00:04:38
	Oh, right, with Abe Lincoln.
	Yeah, good one, Sigjil.
	And that's the random name says, Imagine being French.
	Well, old habits and all that.
	Come on, there are worse things.
	Yeah.
	So to sort of confirm reform's full subscription to the views of the uniparty, we had Layla Cunningham, an Egyptian lady who's running for mayor of London, come out and use pretty much their language.
	Let's listen to her for two seconds because I really want to try to break this down.
	I mean, they're talking about if you're not white and Christian in this country, you're not British.
	Right?
	They're going back to some kind of like neo-Nazi Aryan race.
	If you're not white.
	I mean, I've heard that.
	So apparently, we're back to calling everybody Nazis who doesn't agree with the Blairite consensus.
	Now, I thought I'd start here with a couple of views from the outside.
	Not being British myself, I thought I'd start with the following.
	Leila knows, Leila Magaile knows that when she goes to the Middle East, everybody sees her as Egyptian.
	And everybody accepts that she is Egyptian and doesn't actually believe that she's fully British.
	This is the sort of general consensus from us in the migrant communities when speaking between ourselves, we know.
	And we always know.
	And her pretending otherwise is a bit disingenuous, which I'll try to sort of show you a little bit at the end.
	But I thought I'd first use a couple of examples.
	When Rishi Sunak became Prime Minister, their reaction from India, according to the Hindu.com, the HinduTimes, I believe.com, was Indians embraced next Britain Prime Minister Rishi Sunak as their own.
	That was the reaction from India.
	And why wouldn't they?
	And we had people saying it is a moment of pride for India that the country which ruled us for many years has now a prime minister of Indian heritage, said Manoj Garg, a New Delhi businessman.
	Well, at least he said it as clearly as he possibly could there.
	You know they want to say administrator instead of prime minister.
	You know they were desperate to.
	And then they go on to explain that Sunak's link to India is not only his ancestral link is not his only association with India.
	He's also married to Ashta Murti, who's the daughter of a billionaire, and he's a practicing Hindu and all of that.
	Indian TV channels appeared star truck by Sunak's victory.
	Across the bottom of the screen on New Delhi television ran the words, Indian sun rises over the empire.
	So there is this reality.
	Battered Britain gets Desi big boss, according to another eyeline I've ever seen.
	Yeah, and NPR was in on it.
	India applauds Britain's first Indian origin leader 75 years after colonial rule.
	Kind of, but somebody mentioned the word colonization recently.
	I get into some trouble for it.
	Am I misremembering this?
	Yeah, Jim Rantcliffe.
	Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes.
	Indian sun rises over an empire ran a chiron on the leading English language NDTV channel.
	We saw Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India, congratulating him.
	And then we saw various Indians saying how proud they are of Sunak and not forgetting his own roots and all of that.
	I remember actually, there was one time where I was walking through London, just going through one of the parks, and I happened to walk down the street and there were just loads and loads of Indian people there.
	And there was also some policemen too.
	And I just said to a policeman, I said, what's all this about?
	Is there some sort of demonstration or event on today?
	They said, oh, no, no, it's Rishi Sunak's in that building.
	And they're all just waiting to see him.
	Throwing the colours at his feet.
	You see, Rishi Sunak can be the next Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.
	Indian supremacy.
	So this was generally the reaction when it came to Rishi Sunak.
	And this is the reaction from Indians.
	I'm not saying he isn't English.
	He isn't.
	I'm not saying anything else.
	I'm saying this is the reaction from the Indians.
Ancestry and Citizenship 00:15:18
	But then I thought, why not look at Egyptian citizenship laws and how Egypt is defined and how citizenship in Egypt is defined.
	And the first thing that you see is that to be an Egyptian, you have to be born of Egyptian parents and be resident in Egypt before 1914.
	So they have a cut-off date.
	5 November 1914.
	A cut-off day older than Windrush or anyone that we're hypothetically talking about.
	What a funny thing to notice.
	What a funny thing to notice.
	So the descendants of Alexander and his general Ptolemy are still safe there with that one.
	They're still safe.
	They're still safe under that law.
	But yeah, I suppose that, you know, that settles the whole, oh, but German tribes moved to Britain.
	Oh, but Normans, oh, but Vikings moved to Britain.
	Okay, 1914 seems like a reasonable date.
	1914 seems like a reasonable date.
	And to be Egyptian, you have to be born to an Egyptian father.
	Now, the law was changed in 2023, I believe, so that mothers sometimes can pass their citizenship to Egyptians.
	But you have to be of Egyptian descent to be Egyptian.
	And weirdly enough, to be naturalized as an Egyptian, which is a possibility, you have to master the Arabic language fluently.
	And you have to have no criminal record.
	Which is kind of what Rupert Lowe is saying.
	Yeah.
	I mean, the actual policy of Restore Britain is precisely: you can't be a criminal.
	You have to speak the language.
	Oh, what else?
	You have to be able to provide for yourself, which is actually in the Egyptian law.
	And the outcome of implementing those three things will naturally result in not even absolute, but just a greater level of homogeneity in the country than it currently stands on.
	Are we talking about Egypt or Britain?
	No, we're talking.
	Well, yeah, but it's the same for Egypt.
	It absolutely is.
	You have to have a legitimate means of earning money.
	It's in the law.
	If I may, just to go back to this first slide, if I can.
	Yep.
	Thanks.
	When she says, you know, going back to some sort of neo-Nazi Aryan race, she's just saying a return to a more homogenous society.
	She's saying that actually, so what it was, according to the way that Leila frames it here, is that all of the time in history from the arrival of Hengist and Horsa until the Windrush, little unbeknownst to the Anglo-Saxons, to the English people at the time, but they were actually living under a thousand-year neo-Nazi Reich.
	Apparently, just getting on with their lives, trying to hand down the good things that they had to the generations that would come after, as any civilization or people should do.
	Exactly.
	I mean, she's saying that if you recognize ancestry as a factor in your citizenship, as the primary factor in your citizenship, as Egypt does.
	As Egypt does, then you are an Aryan neo-Nazi.
	Now, mind you, there is an Egyptian Nazi party.
	It has all of seven members.
	They literally say that we removed all of the bits that say Aryan and replaced them with Egyptian.
	That's the same thing.
	They were on TV a few years ago.
	I don't know why I watch Egyptian television sometimes, but it's not work.
	This is part of my job.
	I'm sorry.
	All non-white neo-Nazis all have the same formula.
	Just take out that bit and just chuck that in.
	It's quite amusing to me.
	It is hilarious.
	It is hilarious.
	But I don't think the Egyptian government would be called Aryan neo-Nazis by Leila Al-Magaile Cunningham.
	I just don't think that this would happen.
	Now, if you look at Indian citizenship law, oh, you have to have Indian parents.
	And if you acquire a second citizenship, you automatically stop being Indian, which is the same in Egypt, by the way.
	So for India, they recognize that everybody born in India between 1950 and 1987 automatically is entitled to Indian citizenship.
	Well, remember when the EU recently had that trade deal with India, that colossal trade deal, and you had Antonio Costa as the president of the European Council just waiving literally his papers of blood ties to India, going back several generations and saying, oh, you don't have any idea how comforting it is, you know, to have this piece of paper.
	So everybody recognizes this.
	And in India, if you want to become a citizen, you have to renounce any other nationality.
	I haven't checked if they have a language requirement like the Egyptians, but it seems a little bit longer than the five years of ILR.
	And you also can't have a criminal record.
	And there are all kinds of things that would disallow you from being a citizen, like settling in Pakistan or settling in Bangladesh, i.e. being Muslim.
	Well, it can't, you know, my opinion, it can't be done in one generation.
	You can't do that in five years.
	Even if I were to go to somewhere with a somewhat more similar culture, like New Zealand, maybe America would be a better example.
	I don't think that I would, if I went there now, would just be as American as everyone else by the time I was 35 or 40.
	I mean, I'm too culturally ingrained in where I come from and where my ancestry is.
	It's just, it's not the same.
	Yep.
	In Pakistan, it's pretty much the same.
	You have to have Pakistani parents, you have to speak the language, you're allowed dual citizenship in some cases where the Pakistanis have signed a treaty, but usually they sign these treaties with Western countries where they want a big Pakistani diaspora, and then they'll allow them to have dual citizenship.
	Like Britain, for example.
	Exactly.
	But they are fully aware of the fact that not everybody in Pakistan is in fact a citizen, because even though they have a law that says that there is some kind of birthright citizenship by law, they refuse to apply to the Afghans who are living in Pakistan.
	Fair enough.
	So they have the law that says, in theory, if you're born there, you're from there, but in reality, not if your parents are from the country next door.
	Or they expelled a bunch of Afghans, didn't they?
	They kicked out, was it a couple of million?
	Two million.
	Two million, yeah, something like that.
	They just kicked them out unceremoniously.
	It can be done.
	Pakistan, even fire.
	If that means millions leave, then millions leave.
	Exactly.
	Exactly.
	Iran did exactly the same thing.
	So I'm trying to understand, are we saying that Pakistan and India and Egypt are Aryan neo-Nazis?
	Yes.
	Is this the argument that Leila Cunningham is making?
	Because I struggle to understand.
	And if she is making that argument as well, in what way is she any improvement over Sadiq Khan?
	Exactly.
	We get enough abuse from him about who has the right to London or England or Britain or any of these such things.
	We'll just stick with Sadiq, to be honest with you.
	I just hate the notion of a foreigner telling me how I identify as, you know, with my own people.
	And it's like, I'm sorry, I've had an unbroken chain of ancestry in these isles for potentially, what, 4,000 years at least?
	That's just as far as I can trace genetically.
	So someone who's come across in their lifetime now gets to tell me that, yeah, by the way, you can't identify as your own nation.
	You can't set things about, you know, you being an ethnicity and discriminating based on those terms.
	It has to include me and lots of other people like me that undermine your interests.
	Well, I have to interrupt you.
	And I must insist that your rejection of British values makes you un-British.
	So I'm stateless.
	Apparently, these are the new rules.
	Oh, don't worry, Josh.
	At least you've still got a chair.
	That's true.
	That spokesperson on talk TV and on TV saying, if you are not white and Christian, then you're not deemed to be British.
	And, you know, that flies in the face of.
	Hold on.
	Nobody said if you're not white and Christian.
	What was said if you don't have ancestry, which is exactly the same for Egypt and India and Pakistan and pretty much every other part of the world.
	It just so happens that the ancestry of people in Europe is white and there's no getting around that.
	But there's another thing that I want to sort of highlight her saying, which I think is important.
	A face of wanting integration and assimilation, because no matter how much you integrate or assimilate, according to them, you will never be British.
	So she says that saying this flies in the way in the face of integration and assimilation.
	I want to talk about integration and assimilation and how it's going.
	Because I think this is an important point to make.
	When you have men raping children and say this is white girls, what white girls are for, how's that integration going?
	Has there been integration?
	Because the point that she's conceding here is that for them to be British, they must integrate and assimilate.
	Does this in any way look like integration or assimilation?
	And if it doesn't, what should be done?
	There is the follow-up question here.
	Because the premise that Leila is setting out is that people should integrate into British culture if they want to live in Britain.
	I agree.
	As an immigrant, I agree.
	It's not on me to impose a different cultural norm.
	Fair enough.
	But does that look like integration?
	I think she's coming at it from the entirely wrong paradigm as well, in the sense of if someone comes from Norway and doesn't integrate, but still is able to speak English, as many of them do very well, then they're still not going to cause any problems because their culture is similar enough that even if they acted as if they were still in Norway, it wouldn't be a problem, right?
	And so the problem isn't even integration or not, because I think that nobody can integrate at all, really.
	You know, there's always going to be some element of their original culture, as we were alluding to, and that's fine.
	It doesn't mean that, you know, I think because that Norwegian can't live up to my British culture, their culture is somehow inferior.
	It just means that they have a slightly different culture.
	But we're talking about degrees here, right?
	If they're from Europe or, you know, white Christian parts of the world, they're more likely to be similar to us and therefore they are easier to live around.
	Whereas when you're plucking someone from the Congo or rural Pakistan, they have nothing in common with us.
	There's no, you know, their sort of default state of being is harmful to us, basically.
	It's completely different and harmful to the British way of life.
	Whereas if, you know, you pluck, I don't know, Germany gangs.
	No.
	There are not going to be Spanish, I don't know, terrorist attacks.
	Well, depends what part of Spain.
	I'll talk about the Armada here, but okay, moving beyond the Armada.
	But the Italians, the Spanish, the Germans have, at the end of the day, a worldview that is built in Christianity, that has the same sense of right and wrong, perhaps different family traditions,
	perhaps different cultural traditions, but these are in a way put, like, they are good things to experience, as opposed to Pakistani tribal culture, which is not a good thing to experience.
	Full stop.
	And so the point that you're making is absolutely true.
	But continuing with integration, I mean, if the peak of integration is, say, becoming the leader of Scottish labor and having a shot at being the prime minister of Scotland or the First Minister of Scotland,
	and your father is running around saying that there needs to be Islamic blasphemy laws in Britain and is blaring it outside of a mosque in a protest about defending Islam from any of us who would dare criticize it.
	Then how's that integration gone, really?
	How's that working out?
	If you have someone like Hamza Youssef complaining about people being white in Scotland, then how has that integration worked?
	And if it hasn't worked, what is the answer to it?
	Well, reform's answer to it is tough.
	These people are here to stay for all time.
	And it's their descendants who will inherit the sovereignty of this island and its destiny and not the people who've just come from the past thousand years of it.
	And I'm sorry, there's nothing you can say that's ever going to convince me.
	To hand that over.
	A profound ignorance of the existence of genetics.
	Like if you ask someone in politics, do you believe in genetics?
	Like, what?
	Of course, yeah, of course I do.
	But then you say, well, apply them to politics.
	And they're like, well, I don't get what you mean.
	It's like, well, you can look at the psychological studies that suggest that merely looking at someone's face that looks similar to yours makes you like them more because it's a proxy for genetic proximity.
	And so implicit in all human beings and a very core part of their nature is preferring people who are genetically like them.
	It's why we prefer our families.
	It's why we prefer people in our nation to, you know, people from far outside of it.
	And you can't get rid of that.
	That's an intrinsic part of human nature.
	It's the biological explanation of the Ordo Amoris, the order of love.
	That you owe more to your family than you do to your neighbors.
	You owe more to your neighbors than you do to your village.
	You owe more to your village than you do, etc., etc., etc., extrapolated.
	And it's one of the strongest and most core parts of human nature.
	You were a fool for even pushing against it.
	It's the reason that life on, you know, human life on earth still exists.
	Exactly.
	Another example of successful integration.
	Look at the knives.
	Look at the machetes.
	Doesn't have to be like this.
Why Integration Fails 00:12:02
	They were ready for trouble.
	It's basically a standing army.
	Leila says that this flies in the face of any effort for integration and assimilation.
	Do they look like they want to integrate and assimilate?
	Do these people on the street look like they want to integrate and assimilate?
	And even if they did, and even if they all came here, the British people didn't want them here in the first place.
	We didn't consent to having to just dedicate decades and decades of this century to assimilating peoples who had no right to be here, who have no claim to be here, and they're only here because of corrupt economic systems that profit the rich and powerful.
	We don't want it.
	I saw Lucy White pointing out that surveys from 1965 showed 80-90% opposition to more immigration.
	Yeah, 70% of people, but probably agreed with Powell's Rivers of Blood speech.
	And the Tory Party destroyed him for it.
	And then, again, continuing with integration and assimilation, when you had the grooming gang scandals breaking out, you had Muslim organizations saying that the people who were highlighting this problem should be nominated for Islamophobe of the Year awards.
	So they literally rallied around the rapists.
	This gentleman, Mubin Hussein, he started a boycott against South Yorkshire police for arresting individuals for the rape gangs and saying that, no, it's not true that the police were afraid of being racist.
	It turned out, I believe, that his uncle had to resign because he was making sure that there was no discussion of the grooming gangs to protect that.
	And since then, we've learned, I believe, that members of the actual groomers, members of the families of the actual groomers, were infiltrating charities to support the victims of the rape gangs in order to put pressure on the victims to silence them.
	So the question to Laila Cunningham is: okay, you're saying this flies in the face of integration and assimilation.
	Do they look like they want it?
	Or do they look like they want to conquer and impose Islamic law and impose Islamic blasphemy laws?
	Every single speech that's done privately or to a group of fellow Pakistani Muslims endlessly emphasizes that they are here to take over.
	And those speeches always end up on the internet, so we can't claim ignorance of them, the motives as an excuse.
	Exactly.
	And they always end up saying, we need more people like us in positions of power.
	When they go to the home office, they form a Muslim network that tries to reject the applications of refugee status from Christians.
	They always end up with cases of visa fraud that come to people linked with the Muslim network.
	They always end up getting into all kinds of trouble that shows that they're working for ethnic self-interest with zero intent to assimilate and integrate.
	So when that fact that they don't want to assimilate and integrate is confronted, then what?
	That's the question that reform has to answer.
	We're in this sort of situation that's very similar to when the Soviet Union collapsed in that people can't imagine a system outside of it because they've been entrenched in it so long.
	And the multicultural experiment failed a long time ago for anyone with a functioning set of eyes and ears.
	And they're still trying to push forward with it.
	Especially Layla Cunningham there is just explicitly saying we need to carry on with this failed experiment until it works.
	And it doesn't because it's my interest for it to continue.
	Exactly.
	And that's all it is, really, is that it's minority self-interest.
	That's all minority politics is in Britain.
	And we had a few months ago Robert Jenrick saying that there's been a catastrophic failure of integration and that it hasn't worked.
	Since then, the parts of the Conservative Party were defending that view that in fact, yes, integration and assimilation have been catastrophic in so many areas that are fully segregated, essentially.
	Now the argument is that if you say that people who won't integrate have to go, then you're an Aryan neo-Nazi.
	Like, I can't imagine, I don't know.
	Again, when Pakistan deported all the Afghans, were they being Aryan neo-Nazis?
	When Egypt says, in Egypt, if you're one of your parents is foreign and you want to acquire British citizenship, the foreign parent has to be from an Arabic majority country or a Muslim-majority country.
	So they define being Egyptian as being Arab and Muslim.
	Well, even these ethnic particularists, the far-lefties in America who say, oh, it's all stolen and give it back to Native Americans.
	It's by blood.
	It's like, oh, so the Native Americans are neo-Nazis now as well for wanting to deport.
	Yeah.
	Just wanting deportations makes you a neo-Nazi, apparently.
	Apparently.
	And then when you want to think about integration, you have to confront difficult questions that have to do with the nature of Islam.
	The Quran says, you who believe do not take the Jews and Christians as allies.
	They are allies of each other.
	If you ally with them, then you are one of them.
	This is a very bad translation, but this is the message.
	So if we're going to have this conversation, honestly, Layla, well, at least part of it is that Islam forbids any kind of loyalty to Christians and Jews.
	Meaning that there can be no hope of assimilation and integration.
	You can talk about the Gurkhas if you want.
	You can talk about the Sikh community.
	I have nothing against them.
	And I'm not in a position to say anything against them to begin with because I'm not British.
	Fine.
	But then when you confront the reality of it, if your scripture says that you can't be loyal to Christians or Jews, explain to me how you get from that to assimilation and integration.
	Make the positive case.
	Give me the correct tafsir.
	Give me the correct exegesis of the Quran that says that this is going to work so that you can convince the majority of Muslims in Britain who are religiously conservative despite the depravity of their participation in things like the rape gangs and show me how you're going to convince them.
	This is the challenge.
	You have to make a positive case that says this is going to work.
	And I'm struggling to understand what that case could be.
	And please, Leila, help me understand it.
	Explain it to me like I'm like I'm five.
	Explain it to me like I'm stupid.
	Then you go further.
	Most of the Pakistanis in Britain and a lot of the Afghans follow the teachings of a gentleman called Abu Al-Mawdudi.
	Now, when this guy was preaching, India was united.
	There was no Pakistan.
	It was the days of the empire.
	And he didn't want Muslims to assimilate into Indian culture.
	So what he said was that they should dress completely differently.
	The white dress and the sort of that whole trousers top combination that you see so characteristic of the Pakistanis, this is actually modern.
	This is actually modern.
	And it's intended to distinguish the Muslims from the non-Muslims by dress.
	And then you see huge masses of Muslims in Britain wearing these clothes.
	The purpose of this outfit was in the 1930s to prevent assimilation and integration in India.
	And it still serves the same exact purpose today here in Britain.
	So make the case, explain to us how will assimilation happen when these practices are still in use.
	Explain it.
	And if you can't, calm down.
	I'm running out of time, so I just want to end it with the two faces of Leila Cunningham.
	Schrödinger's ethnicity, as Jonathan Wong put it.
	I mean, I'm not ethnically British.
	That is true.
	And they're not wrong.
	I mean, they're talking about if you're not white and Christian in this country, you're not British.
	I mean, I'm not.
	Can you Leila Cunningham please have a word with Leila Cunningham and explain to us Leila Cunningham's views on being British?
	Probably not.
	Can you just sort of sit down and explain this to yourself first before you go on labeling common sense policies that are used in Egypt, in India, in Pakistan, as Aryan neo-Nazis?
	That's all.
	That's the request.
	All right, I'll just go through the rumble rants on that segment.
	We've got That's Random Name says those articles about Russia, why we need to say decolonization instead of re-migration.
	We must decolonize Britain and Europe as a whole.
	Well, yeah, obviously we do need to decolonize it.
	Sigil Stone says, I've heard that Andrew Windsor, or whatever his last name is, Farming Prince has been arrested.
	Let's go to whatever it is.
	Yeah, it's Battenberg.
	That's cake.
	Yeah.
	Mountbatten, yeah.
	That's more arrests than Trump has made.
	Yeah.
	That's randomness says, denying the very existence of an ethnicity is genocidal.
	If ethnically Bulgarian, sorry, I'm ethnically Bulgarian, but culturally Canadian.
	I've never been a true, I'll never be a true Canadian, and that's okay.
	Long live the Anglosphere.
	Right.
	And this is the thing that people like Leila don't appreciate either.
	I may disagree with her.
	I may not want her to have a foothold in politics, but I would have more respect for her honesty and integrity if her position was purely just the first thing she said there.
	Just recognising that she's not British, because then it's like, okay, then we can actually get to the point of having the conversation of actually our voices matter more than someone who was not British.
	But they erode that distinction to lay an equal, if not superior, claim.
	Quick final point.
	In Egypt, if you somehow acquire Egyptian citizenship, for the next five years, you have zero political rights.
	It's just sensible.
	Makes sense, yeah.
	What a sensible country Egypt is.
	I had no idea.
	No, apparently there are a bunch of Aryan neo-Nazis.
	According to Baylor Connecticut, it's worth pointing out that a Bulgarian is on the right side of important issues like who should reconquer Constantinople.
	That is true.
	Critical point.
	So critical point.
	Get cracking random name.
	He also says, growing up, I saw lots of Bulgarians in Canada having nothing but hatred for Canada.
	They only came here to steal.
	They hate the natives.
	And those are European Christians, decolonize the West.
	Yeah, I agree.
	And for $20, thank you.
	Magnus87 says, World War I started over Belgian neutrality.
	World War II was to defend Poland.
	They still want you to die for Ukraine.
	Why does it become fair for Britain?
	When does it become fair for Britain to defend itself?
	Great question, Magnus.
	And thanks very much for the donation.
	All right, then.
Gorton and Denton By-Election 00:05:27
	So, ladies and gentlemen, we have in a week's time the by-election in Gorton and Denton.
	Not a name that rouses a great deal of excitement, but an important bellwether for where the current political rand lays.
	If you're watching from Gorton and Denton, Lucan didn't mean it.
	I just mean it's a very dry sounding name.
	I mean, nothing personal by it.
	It's just a by-election.
	It's a northern rivalry coming out.
	We have many, many of this.
	Sorry, it's just my Yorkshire blood just scandalising these Lancastrians.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, Richard III did nothing wrong.
	Anyway, the Pisces...
	I'm joking.
	But the point is that this is all coming to a head and we'll have the result in a week.
	But I wanted to use it because as I look through what's going on there, it just speaks to how unimpressive the political landscape of Britain is.
	I mean, we start with the fact that this all began because Andrew Gwynne, who was Labour man, Gorton, Denton, Labour Heartlands, historically Red Wall area, stepped down as an MP because, and it goes on to point out in The Guardian here, he said he'll resign over a question of ill health.
	But actually, he was suspended from the Labour Party and had been offered a deal on his MP's pension that would allow him to retire on medical grounds.
	And that friends of the MP told The Guardian that it would mean he would receive a yearly payout until he reached retirement age when he would be entitled to the full pension.
	He needs some better friends.
	Even though he's still under parliamentary standards investigation, which was initiated last year after he was found to have been in a WhatsApp group called, and get ready for the cringe of this, Trigger Me Timbers.
	Oh, I remember this.
	That shared vulgar and inflammatory comments about voters and other MPs.
	Well, I'm sure some of them were.
	The funny thing is, I remember reading those comments and thinking, wow, members of Labour are actually human beings.
	He's got a sense of humour, they're actually...
	And now that he's getting kicked out for it.
	Well, I know.
	So it's all a disaster.
	And obviously, Andrew should have stayed, but he isn't.
	And so the question came about, well, it's Manchester, after all, Andy Burnham, very, very popular in Manchester and someone who still, for some reason, seems to hold a level of respect to his name in the heartlands, right?
	People, for whatever reason, people in the Red Wall are fairly loyal to him.
	So, sorry, man, slide is broke.
	But then that all obviously came to naught because Kia Starmer thought, don't want that man becoming an MP and possibly usurping me as I currently sit here as the least popular man in Britain.
	So we're obviously going to block Burnham standing in the election.
	And so in that as well, you get a very clear window into the mindset of Starma and the Labour higher-ups, which is that they would rather take the loss.
	It's one of the few times he's probably covering his own ass.
	They would rather take the loss and lose this to the Greens or Reform or whoever than they would actually have the one.
	I mean, I say credible, it's doing a lot of lifting, you understand, but credible rival to Starma's current hold on the Labour party.
	He is sort of the frontrunner, isn't he?
	When people think of people to replace Starma, people think Andy Burnham because he hasn't done that much to scandalise himself yet.
	No.
	But obviously that's not stopped Burnham from coming out and being a good party man.
	And as it says here, Labour still hopes Burnham could deliver the party a by-election win.
	From what I understand, he has been visiting around the area and doing a little bit of campaigning for Labour.
	So we'll see how that all comes out.
	But obviously that does mean that they've had to come up with a different candidate.
	Not to sound like hot fuzz, but she's not really from Roundier.
	Her name's Angelica Sotia, and she's Greek, which, of course, there's absolutely nothing wrong with.
	Stelios is one of my favourite people.
	She's not holding a gun under the table right now.
	Stelios isn't in the office today.
	But let's just listen to her speaking with Lucy Powell and see if we feel that they're inspiring and speak to the core issues of the world.
	When I first started in politics as a woman whose English is a second language, I fought hard to be the woman of the front.
	And I remember that in photos in my career, in my path in politics, I was standing on my tippy toes right at the back of the photo, trying to be listened to.
	Now you're at the moment.
	Now at the front of the photo, and I want everybody to be listened.
	don't want anybody left behind people don't have the money unless they're far right right angelica Or unless they're actually English patriots, then they don't count.
	But also, even if I do pretend that she actually means to give consideration to people from our side of politics, of course, the premise is absurd on the face of it.
	Why would you want to listen to all the voices equally?
	Why would you want to listen to the voices?
	The first daughter and the village idiot get the same vote.
	Right.
	Or the person who spent the whole life on benefits.
	Why should his voice be worthy of equal consideration to the man who's worked all of his life?
	Yeah.
Voices Divided 00:15:15
	Someone who drinks paint shouldn't be listened to like an expert in the field.
	Who'd have thought?
	Is this speaking from experience?
	Where has this just come from?
	Did you learn this the hard way?
	I've never drank paint.
	I'll say it here.
	Well, I say I didn't think you had until you just properly decided.
	I was just thinking of always Sonny.
	Josh, what colour was it?
	White.
	And so obviously, and then we get into here.
	They were just caught bribing voters saying, if you want to get fed, hold one of these up and putting on loads of food for constituents in Gorton and Denton.
	You can see from the type of people turning up here, they are people who seem to be more prone to Gibbs than your native Brit.
	I did make a joke about this saying that they need to be careful what they're offering because if it's curry, they might get an unwelcome endorsement from Piers Morgan.
	I'm sorry, I should have included that tweet.
	But I'll have to say it instead.
	Yeah, but this is pretty serious.
	There has been a police probe into the claims that Labour have bribed voters with food to support by-election candidates.
	Lowest form of bribe.
	Well, honestly, I mean, again, just the degradation of our politics.
	If this was Georgian democracy in the 18th centuries, it would have been kegs of ale rather than bribing them with.
	Yeah, yeah, just cool things.
	There you go, you dirty proles.
	Here's some ethnic slop.
	Now vote for us.
	It's not that.
	It's that it's a very Middle Eastern Indian thing to do.
	Just have a feast and invite people over and then they vote for you.
	And it's really the worst kind of politics because it brings out the worst kind of people.
	As in, literally, this is Esau trading his inheritance for some lentils.
	That's what it is.
	But the fact that it's the done thing across Pakistan and India and big swathes of the Middle East explains why democracy shouldn't be in those societies in the first place.
	And here it is being imported.
	And then you see the guy saying, no, no, raise it up if you want to get fed, meaning that we are not letting you go and get your food unless you give us the photo op.
	And it's just so degrading.
	Oh, it's pitiful.
	And sorry, were you going to say something?
	I was just going to say, it's quite funny that they're so stuck for organic support that they've got to hold a curry up behind the camera.
	And then all of the Indian voters are looking at the curry, but it looks like they're all in unison supporting Labour.
	I mean, it says here from this article: a Green Party spokesman said, Labour, know they've blown this by-election and are desperately trying to save face by buying votes.
	It won't work.
	The people of Gorton and Denton, including the Muslim communities invited to this event, don't have a short-term memory over issues like Gaza and Labour's long-held belief about taking votes for granted.
	I don't realize Gaza was in Manchester.
	Gaza is everywhere, didn't you know?
	But I love how the Green Party just come out and say, hey, you can't bribe those people.
	That's our voter ball.
	Like, is what they're actually coming out and saying here.
	But as Simon Danzik points out here as well, interesting Labour had a Muslim community meeting in Gorton where they serve lots of free food and drink, but haven't done the same in Denton to important points.
	Treating as a serious criminal offence, Labour are only interested in one community and it's not Denton.
	And of course, it's because they don't think for a second that simply by putting on a buffet, they'll actually persuade British people to vote for them.
	And that is another key point to this entire constituency, which is that you have one side of it in the Denton side, I believe, which is overwhelmingly British, like 95% people.
	You can't have your Gorton without your Denton, I'm afraid.
	Yeah, and now what we've done is so we've just fastened these two different boroughs together, which have totally different political views.
	One half of it is probably going to just vote for reform, and the other half of it is going to get split between the Greens or Labour or whoever's going to make the toughest rhetoric on Gaza or just self-hating, self-loathing Green Brits.
	Rather selfishly, I'm looking forward to getting the data whereby I can overlay the 2021 ethnicity map from the census over voting behaviour.
	And it's just going to be a straight line correlation of, yes, obviously it's all ethnic.
	That's all it is these days.
	Absolutely.
	And as the women's rights network here in Greater Manchester points out, Angelica Stogia is happy to meet the ladies for the photo op.
	But when asked at the Denton and Gorton by-election hustings whether she accepted last year's Supreme Court ruling on the definition of a woman in the Equality Act, her hand stayed firmly closed.
	Charlotte, firmly down.
	Charlotte Caden, Conservatives, was the only woman out of the four on the panel to raise her hand.
	Well, look, I mean, obviously that's very embarrassing for Labour, but we are sadly at the point now where actually being able to tell what a man and a woman is isn't a high enough qualification for being a member of parliament.
	Could you zoom in on that leaflet for a second?
	I can have a go.
	So is that Urdu?
	That's Urdu.
	I thought it was.
	I thought I recognised it.
	At the Pakistani Community Centre.
	So she just went to a place that was called the Pakistani Community Centre with leaflets written in Urdu.
	And this is not pandering for specific ethnic groups.
	No, this is unity instead of division.
	Yes, I've been told, even though it requires you to literally create all kinds of division of campaigning in order to appeal to all the different groups.
	All of a sudden, the Labour approach to the grooming gang inquiries makes perfect sense.
	Not that it didn't before, but yeah, obviously they're just trying to court the Pakistani community because they vote for them.
	Yeah, of course.
	And they're not the only ones writing their campaigning material in foreign languages, of course.
	You can always trust the Greens to do that, as Tom points out here.
	One more push to the collapsing wall of Labour, punish Lun for Gaza, defeat reform, vote green.
	This is what it apparently says on this leaflet here.
	And obviously you have...
	Green for a strong voice for Muslims.
	Yes.
	You're just reading that.
	Are you from there?
	Is that what it says?
	Yeah.
	Glad that you could verify that.
	But she is...
	I don't read Urdu, but it's in the transcript.
	Yeah.
	She is a total airhead.
	I mean, I really have to just play this because this is truly vile.
	Never asked why these people.
	What we did after the terror attacks was we came together and we stuck up for each other.
	But you've never asked why are those things happening?
	Of course we have.
	Why are they happening?
	Of course we have, because people like you are divided into the city.
	So I'm responsible for the Manchester Country News Arena market.
	I mean, I mean, first, sorry, go on, Injun.
	I was just going to say, beware anyone that dresses themselves like a children's TV presenter.
	Yeah.
	First and foremost.
	That's normally a big red flag as to whether someone should be taken seriously.
	Sorry.
	No, I was just going to say, but every single thing that she says about that is just flat out incorrect.
	When she says people came together as if that was the organic sentiment Of the communities of Manchester.
	No, it wasn't.
	It was orchestrated by the Home Office, by Raikou, by Prevent, that they had contingency plans just in case some of our own women and girls were blown up at pop concerts, that they would have a way to manage their grief and their justified anger.
	So, no, it wasn't a case that we all just came together.
	It was all determined to be that way.
	And what's more as well, the insinuation that it is like the Manchester Arena bombing wouldn't have happened if there have simply been less anti-migrant immigrant rhetoric or if people could just be less racist, then, like, again, it just puts the whole burden of agency onto the British and absolutely none, onto the minorities.
	And also, as well, it was in fact lack of racism that led to these murders, right?
	No, actually, racism could have saved lives here.
	She's not even taking the best line she could take.
	She could say that if it wasn't for our interventions in the Middle East with Tony Blair, this wouldn't have happened.
	It's a retaliation for bad foreign policy.
	And at least I could sort of understand where she would be coming from there, but she's not even done that.
	He was the son of Libyan refugees.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Yeah.
	He was the son of Libyan refugees who went on, like some members of his family went on to fight in Libya and they had been given the best deal that could be given, which is leave Libya, a hellhole, and come live in Britain.
	Yeah.
	And this was their reaction.
	So this is insane on every level.
	It's civilization ending nonsense.
	I mean, it will just end us in one fell swoop.
	And then you can see her here as well.
	And I do just want to play this little clip.
	Hi, Hannah.
	I'm Joe from the UC.
	A few years ago, she wrote online that she was glad to move out of the area.
	She now wants to represent.
	Why did you say that?
	I think, like a lot of people, it's taken me a while to become proud of the places I've lived.
	I struggled a lot in the years that I was here.
	And you said the high street was full of, quote, money laundering takeaways.
	Yeah, and I think that's the feeling that a lot of people share: that we could see other nicer places have, you know, bookshops and cafes and greengrocers, and here we just had takeaway after takeaway.
	She also.
	So she wants gentrification, right?
	She wants Gorton and Denzen to be more middle class, a bit more sophisticated, have a finer touch.
	She's inspiration.
	She should have stayed with those politics personally.
	Right, it's all very hyacinth bouquet, right?
	It's just quintessential British class distinctions and preferences.
	But she's trying to transplant both that kind of cosmopolitan middle classness onto and create an alliance with that voting constituency with one that has absolutely no interest in those things whatsoever in the libraries and in the coffee shops and really just wants to know are our mosques going to be able To preach whatever they like.
	Are you going to give us a wide berth?
	And are you just going to leave us to get on with our little enclave that we've got here?
	A very growing enclave at that.
	And so there's just no awareness of anything within reality.
	And really, all of the Green Party's point goes, I just hope those ISIS brides get some nice free housing is really just standard green policy rhetoric.
	I mean, it just distilled into that exactly.
	There is no criteria for who is unsuitable to live in Britain.
	It can be the worst people imaginable.
	There's no threshold, there's no bar.
	And yes, free things.
	I mean, it really is just the perfect.
	And then, of course, we get Matt Goodwin.
	Now, it was very sensible of Reform to play Matt in this election in many ways, because, of course, he's very regular on GB News.
	He's the sort of person who would be appearing on a lot of the television screens around that constituency.
	And so he already has a profile built up.
	He's been very, very vocal in the public sphere for a long time with all of this.
	And yes, absolutely, I concede that when put up against a party that wants to legalize heroin, Matt Goodwin does indeed look like a far more sensible option.
	I absolutely grant it.
	And Matt is right here when he says that I don't see how flooding Gorton and Denton would legalize crack cocaine heroin, open borders and telling their children that they can change gender, is looking after each other.
	And he says that the Green Party are extremists.
	And this is all true.
	However, I do also want to point out that Matt cannot win this election without engaging with other enclaves and other voting blocs and other people who have their own ethnic interests and their own religious interests, right?
	And Matt looks on the Sikhs as one of the better examples of minorities living in Britain.
	And I want to be clear, I don't disagree with that sentiment.
	Of course, there is a gradient of who are more peaceful, who cause up less fuss than all of the rest.
	But it still comes down to the point that when Matt says here, British Sikhs have done more than most to take on the greening gangs.
	They've done more to help me with a labour fiefdom than a lot of the so-called patriots who stood rival candidates and enabled the left.
	I do not like the blatant racism that surrounds restore pro-restore accounts.
	Now, Firas, I actually just wanted to, because you'd left a comment here, and I actually thought it was worth discussing as well, because one of the things that you talked about was that, yes, the Sikh community have also suffered unspeakable horrors at the hands of the Pakistani grooming gangs.
	But as you point out here, it wasn't covered up, right?
	There was transparency there, and they were dealt with differently, more fairly by the state.
	And also, as well, the Sikhs were absolutely interested, understandably so, in protecting their women and children.
	But that raises the point as well that they didn't see the native English girls as their responsibility.
	To be totally fair, some Sikhs did join the EDL and were part of the EDL and were protesting against the Islamification of Britain because the Sikh religion exists against Islam in a very real way, you know.
	But you're still playing sectarian politics.
	Yes.
	Because you have to.
	You are playing sectarian.
	Because you have to.
	Because the demographics are forced.
	Yes.
	The demographic change has imposed sectarian politics and the liberalization and balkanization of Britain.
	And that is a real thing with all of the love and respect in the world for the Sikh community.
	Yes.
	So I'm not trying to be anti-Sikh.
	Pointing out that what's happening here is essentially sectarian politics isn't just a description of reality.
	It's neither an attack on the Sikhs nor on the Muslims for that matter.
	And you know that I would attack them.
	It's just there are sectarian politics underway, and that is the direct result of demographic change.
	That is objectively a bad thing.
	The last thing you want to end up as is a Lebanonized polity.
Sectarian Politics Demystified 00:03:52
	Exactly.
	You can even name which parties each religious group votes for.
	Like the Sikhs tend to be either reform or the Conservatives, really.
	Yes.
	Indians were definitely the Conservatives, especially under Rishi.
	Muslims tend to be more left-wing.
	They vote for Labour or the Greens.
	Because these are the parties that give them the most concessions.
	So it is sectarian politics.
	Just because your side is doing it doesn't change what a sectarian politics.
	And also, I would just say on this as well, that where Matt points out here, that, well, you know, these Sikhs have done more to help me win in a Labour heartland than the so-called Patriots who've stood up rival county, obviously referring to Nick Buckley in advance and basically said that we're handing victory to the left.
	The one point that I would press is that without the necessary policy, i.e. the policy that restores our offering of breaking up these enclaves, of actually ending the sectarianism, of restoring the demographic stability and security of Britain, it doesn't really matter, Matt, whether or not you win this by-election in Goring and Street, Goring and Denton, Gorton and Denton, thinking of another place,
	Gorton and Denton, because even if you win it this year, you will lose it the next time, and even if you, you know, or the next one.
	And ultimately, this will just fall in perpetuity to the Greens.
	Well, there's the reform thinking in election cycles.
	Right, the thinking in election cycles, I'm trying to look at this throughout the rest of the century.
	Yes, right.
	This is where it is going to go.
	It doesn't matter if you just happen to have enough Sikhs to win it this time.
	And we're already pointing out it's going to be a close wrong thing.
	What we're saying is that this system cannot go on forever because actually it robs the British people of talking about things purely based on the issues.
	And so we have here as well, obviously the Lib Dems are about as helpful as a cat flap in an elephant house.
	And they say that those Angles and Saxons coming over on boats 1400 years ago and now they think they own the place.
	I finally got my talking points.
	Yeah.
	It's like, yeah.
	Celts, yeah.
	We do own the place.
	Like, I don't know what to tell you.
	The name England comes from the Anglo-Saxons uniting it.
	So, yeah, of course.
	Yeah.
	So again, totally useless, just waffle from the boomers here and the Lib Dems.
	No real urgency or understanding of the point.
	But Al Jazeera, though, Al Jazeera have got their fingers on the pulse.
	Going straight back to your segment, Firas, about how just the rest of the world are very, very aware of what the ethnic reality means.
	And oh my god, this first paragraph, it's just so.
	Usman Khan stands behind his counter, rows of colourful vapes lined up in neat rows behind him.
	Outside, a biting wind blows down Denton High Street.
	Khan moved to Denton from nearby Gorton not long ago.
	Now he's one of the 80,000 locals who've put his trust in, who have been thrust into the centre of the fight for the future of British politics as they prepare to head to the polls this month.
	These Manchester suburbs have become a microcosm of the wider story of modern British politics.
	And then it just goes on to point out.
	That's the issue.
	Yes.
	That's the issue with Matt Goodwin.
	That's the issue with the Pakistanis.
	That's the issue across the board.
	Sectarianism.
	Introduced through demographic change.
	That's the fundamental issue.
	And it's split between people who acknowledge this reality.
	Like Al Jazeera.
	Yeah, like Al Jazeera, who run it for their own motives and to gain...
	No, Al Jazeera are famous Islamophobes, didn't you know?
Manchester Suburbs Microcosm 00:08:31
	Yeah.
	Come on.
	And people who ignore this reality, like Lib Dems, right?
	That's what it's coming to.
	Well, in their nice, quaint villages, it hasn't quite touched them yet, but it will.
	See, mosques being used as polling stations in British elections, because of course they are.
	Why wouldn't they be?
	Perfectly neutral ground to stage election stuff on.
	And then we just, I obviously wanted to conclude with Nick Buckley, who is the candidate for advance, because actually, I feel like this is a really good tone for a video.
	I feel like the messaging is on point, and it's the sort of thing that actually harkens back to a more nostalgic view of politics.
	And don't misunderstand me, regrettably, Nick isn't going to win this election.
	However, I do think the video is worth playing.
	I lived in Gorton as a baby before moving to Longsight.
	I attended Stanley Grove Primary School and then Central High School for Boys at Bellevue.
	Which was a challenge.
	I was a self-employed market trader, then got a job at Manchester Airport before working at Manchester Council to stop young people getting involved in crime.
	I was made redundant and used my payout to set up a charity to work on the streets with young people to ensure they were safe and thinking about their future.
	We uncovered sexual abuse many times and had offenders arrested.
	I also set up a project to get homeless people off the streets and into accommodation and then into jobs.
	I have worked across Greater Manchester tackling anti-social behaviour and improving local communities.
	I have even advised prime ministers.
	Our late Queen recognised me for this work and awarded me an MBE in 2019.
	There is nothing special about me.
	I'm one of you.
	I want the best for my neighbours, my community and my country.
	Sorry, I'll just end it there for the sake of time because we are running over.
	But it's perfect.
	It speaks to his qualifications.
	It speaks to his life experience.
	It speaks to how he's able to help on particular issues that are obviously going to be a problem for the people.
	And it speaks to his own sense of place and the fact that he's still operating in the place where he was growing.
	That's given him life, that's given him an opportunity.
	Right.
	That was also a good use of AI in editing there.
	Yeah.
	So very impressive.
	Well done, Nick, for that one.
	But ultimately, as Dan points out here, and I'll just end with this, which is to say, Dan says, I keep seeing people using the urging the right to unite, but it already is.
	It's the left that is fragmented.
	And as he points out, the left are the Tories, the party of mass immigration, Labour, the party of cash to immigrants, and Reform, the party of immigrants in charge, versus Restore, the party of deporting welfare dependents and grooming gang complicit immigrants.
	And so though they won't be standing in this particular issue, if you want to break this stalemate that British politics currently finds itself in because of its demographics and because of the weakness of the politicians standing in its elections, then this is a really good time to organise, folks, and go over and join Restore Britain, which already is a party that has more members than the Lib Dems and it's not even been going a week.
	And so it is the party for patriots and I would encourage you to join it.
	Right.
	So I ran a little over with that, so I'll just put these ones.
	That's Random Name says, Give me 10 good men and Constantinople will be ours.
	Dark magic.
	You're making him sound even better.
	He said 20.
	What did I say?
	10.
	Even more efficient.
	I think that you're a remarkable man, random name, and you can do it with 10.
	Challenge yourself.
	Come on.
	Biba Pin for $10.
	Thank you.
	Says, Prince Andrew just got arrested.
	Scapegoat?
	Or did he do something heinous like use wrong pronouns on blue sky?
	I think they'd rather deal with Andrew and scapegoat him than actually look at Mandelson and all of the bins, all of the beans that Mandelson could end up spilling if he had to make a plea bargain.
	If Mandelson talks, so many heads are rolling.
	Oh, he looks like a squealer as well, doesn't he?
	Sigilstone for $2 says, I like the idea of 1914 being the cut-off for deportation.
	I get sent to Scotland to take my place as a direct descendant of Mary Queen of Scots, and Luca can be my master of mustache care products.
	I'll accept the post gladly in retirement, don't you?
	I'd have to live on the Scottish border.
	I'd have to live on Hadrian's wall.
	Half Scottish, half English.
	Berwick.
	Berwick, Berick could be nice.
	That's random name also says, This lady wants everyone's voices to be listened to.
	Yep, right, funny.
	Cannot read that, but very funny.
	Habsification says, I have a solution against the Balkanization and Lebanonization of Britain, but it will require the indigenous to be married and have 12 kids.
	So Luca and Josh better get on with 12 kids.
	I'm getting there.
	I haven't got one yet, but I'm on the right track.
	Only time.
	That's random man says, that Nick Buckley video is great and all, but it won't appeal to the liberal women who only care about vibes and low IQ foreigners.
	Well, I don't know.
	I think there are lots of liberal people in this country that are at least open to the ideas being espoused now.
	Like most of the people in my private life don't actually share my politics.
	But there's lots of sympathies there, and they tell me of other people that are so far removed from it.
	And yet they're like, yeah, now we're just talking about immigration openly and it's not taboo anymore.
	So there is space for even those people to come around eventually.
	Yeah, good.
	Samson, are there any video comments today?
	Squeaky laptop.
	This appears to be a no.
	Samson?
	No.
	All right.
	All right.
	We'll just rush a few comments and do you want to read some from your segment, John?
	Of course.
	Dirty Belta.
	What a name.
	I'm reminded of the Sam Hyde quote: When we win, do you not forget these people want you broke, dead, your kids raped and brainwashed, and they think it's funny.
	With every murder, remember that the left wanted this.
	Yeah, and even the ones that don't take part in it quite often will make excuses for those who do.
	Like, the thing that I imagine you would hear would be, yeah, but he was a radical, though, wasn't he?
	He did turn up, and to which I say, does it mean you can murder someone?
	Really?
	If that's all it takes for you to kill someone, what does that say about you?
	Sophie Liv says, it also came out that all the students were part of the beatings are of incredibly high status with very wealthy parents in high status.
	It is actually the aristocracy beating up the plebs for their champagne socialism.
	It's like the French Revolution all over again, isn't it?
	That's very important.
	Yeah, the Sankalot getting beaten by the wealthy dandies.
	Anyway, I think that is, are we out of time?
	You got any from.
	Yeah, it's alright.
	We can go a little bit over.
	All right, fine.
	Furious Dan says, it feels like the concept of nationality, that is the nativeness of a person, was ruined by the aeroplane.
	Before that, being in a country was earned, not bought.
	Britain would not be facing millions of foreigners if they could not fly there.
	I've been banging this drum for such a long time that the world was not ready for cheap air travel.
	And in my opinion, it's all been downhill since the domestication of wheat.
	Not just that.
	Now that you have modern communications, you can just stay plugged into your home community while being anywhere.
	Meaning that the sort of natural forces that would have compelled you to integrate no longer exist.
	And that's clearly doing a number on everybody.
	Obviously, this person who rails against Lowe and Restore failed debate 101.
	She needs to sell me on the idea that she is correct.
Natural Forces Diminishing 00:02:00
	Yes.
	This is the challenge to reform.
	If they don't agree with Restore, they have to make the positive case as to how do we go from entire families and clans and communities covering up the grooming gangs to successful assimilation and integration.
	Show me the pathway.
	I'm open-minded.
	I, you know, I will listen to reason.
	Make the case.
	The more you call Rupert Lowe and Restore Britain racist, the stronger they become is what's actually going to happen.
	That's pretty much it.
	That's pretty much it.
	Yes.
	And then from my segment, Ewan Baker says, how dare you?
	I'll have you know all those paint drinkers are a proud people.
	So there you go, Josh.
	You're not alone.
	I'm sure if you vomited, you'd still produce better art than, you know, Pollock and the like.
	That's most likely true.
	And Henry Ashman says, Matt and Reform do need to understand that even if the Sikh community carry them over the line, they will know that he'll lose the next one either to an implicitly Islamic party or an explicitly Sikh party.
	Well, and even if not that so immediately, it will obviously boost the bargaining power of the Sikhs because they will be even more dependable to carry them over the line.
	And so you will just give more and more concessions to them.
	And that is not a British concern.
	It's sectarian politics all the way down.
	And an honorable mention from Josep Yakiminishian, who says, I'm glad Luca's back.
	Some strange man with a clean-shaven face was claiming to be him for a while.
	Yeah, we missed him.
	It's back, ladies and gentlemen.
	At last, yes, I'm back to being a pencil-pushing blotter-jotter-like darling.
	So, yeah, it's time to go.
	It's time to go over the top, isn't it, ladies and gentlemen?
	So, there we are.
	Anyway, hope you've enjoyed this episode of the podcast.
	Don't forget that at 3 p.m. We have the new interview with Rupert Lowe coming out.
	So, do tune in for that.
	And we look forward to seeing you tomorrow.
