Time Text
Ladies and gentlemen, Russell confidential conspiracy theory.
Trying to bring real journalism to the American people.
Hello and welcome to Stay Free with Russell Brown.
Today we are talking about the marches in London, the Unite the Kingdom March.
We had a correspondent there making his debut in the role, Joe McCann, voice of the people, talking about uh his insights and experiences on that incredible day.
Joe, what was it like?
It was good, mate.
It was lively, there was a lot of people there.
Um it was a great atmosphere, actually.
I really enjoyed it.
I really enjoyed it.
It's good that you've made your debut as a reporter.
We're gonna be looking at some of the footage that Joe got from this march, as well as some of the news footage and the reporting around it.
If you watched our show yesterday, I see this as a really significant moment because what the organisers and in particular Tommy Robinson have achieved is they've gotten a march that didn't descend into violence, where the message is pretty clear that British people are not happy with the way their country is being governed, and they've conveyed that message in a way that's not incendiary.
The fact that Elon Musk spoke at it as well shows that there ain't they ain't gonna have their supply lines cut anytime soon to communication.
So we'll be watching some of the footage from the day.
What's it on, mate?
Some one.
And joining us today are of course for this watch along and participatory conversation in democracy and pro let's call it this.
This is like we're having a conversation about democracy, what the word democracy even means.
Does it mean that the will of the people is represented through systems of ballot boxes and representation, or is democracy a bunch of institutions that stay within the control of the government regardless of what you do?
Um, one of the things that fascinated me most was something that Joe said, which we'll get to in a minute, that whether it was the sort of antifa anti-fascist folks that are always in attendance if there's a protest of this nature, or the protesters themselves.
No one's got anything good to say about the current UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
So the thing that fascinates me most is this government is fragile and unstable.
This is a really really interesting moment.
Um I've got Jake with me, my mate Jake who runs the show.
You're right, Jake.
I'm doing so good.
Man, Joe looked awesome.
What a new one.
Did he do well?
What a natural.
We need to put him on more assignments.
Yeah, for sure.
I say Jake's got a permanent job now as a reporter on matters of this nature.
Dave Fields is uh with us as well.
What's up, man?
You look awesome.
It's good.
Did you have you seen any of this yet, Dave?
I seen a little bit, just a clip.
The truth is we're all a bit disappointed you didn't beat anyone up.
But no, we're not, we're proud of you.
Well done.
We've not watched this yet.
Let's have a look.
So wherever you're watching us, join us over on Rumble.
If you ain't got Rumble Premium yet, get Rumble Premium now.
If you're watching it on X or YouTube or whatever, come over and watch it on Rumble because it supports us.
We're still, of course, reflecting on the recent murder of Charlie Cook, and we'll be showing you my tribute to that.
No, we won't, will we?
We'll be showing you some of my thoughts on that in a minute.
Um, yeah, but let's have let's have a look.
Let's have a look at Joe's.
Let's have a look at some of the reporting that Joe's done.
Is it on one?
Is it Isaac?
Check this out.
That's the fascist now, no, no, no.
You either fight back or you don't.
What do we want?
Please fight that.
A bunch of us.
Well, they're trying to keep a divide.
I think they're just trying to keep the peace.
Got to be peaceful.
Otherwise, we leave.
So we're on your left.
Let's keep it calm, boys.
Tommy Robinson looks like a noncinoped on his Timothy Ruckett.
We are not against immigration.
This country.
He looked like a nonsense a pedo, didn't he?
Scary.
Mate, what was that?
What was it like?
Like, because you spoke to people that were at the march, but you also spoke to the counter-protesters.
Tell us what that was like, Joe.
Oh, there was some contrast, I'll tell you that.
So, unlike the Unite the Kingdom, Unite the Nation, rather, it was good vibes, carnival atmosphere, everyone really happy to be there, like a real sense of national pride.
And it was lovely being around everyone.
Families and everything, you know, and everyone wanted to talk to us.
They're all sort of interacting with us, and it was great.
On the other side, very hostile, very hostile.
There's a lot of face coverings, a lot of anger, and I think they sort of assumed that we were from the other side and had a stance on it, and we were trying to remain neutral just to talk to everyone and see what was going on.
Yeah, but I'm trying to think about that.
Like, you know, like the last week when we were doing this.
I talked about when I've been on left wing protests.
Back then it was called Reclaim the Streets, but there was like I remember thinking it was super exciting, everyone was wearing black so that they couldn't get identified.
I mean, it was there it was a time where surveillance was less all uh pervasive.
Um but like I was sort of I was to kind of think it was cool, you know, hiding your face and that kind of thing.
Now though, when like even in the footage I've seen of your reporting of the day, it's not a little bit creepy and eerie about them.
It's not good, it's not like a good vibe, it's not like a positive thing.
And I think one of the things that's totally come to the forefront, it did in Brexit, and it did when Trump got into power the first time, is people have been looking at ways to justify hating ordinary working people.
Oh, I suppose that's obvious now, is because like the last wave of like jobs was the creation of a professional class like the working media and all sorts of you know, sort of post-university type jobs, and that class of people, for some reason, well, there was a kind of a presumed alliance between what was called the intelligentsia and the proletariat.
That's what like Marxism was kind of based on is working people will team up with the educated classes and they'll overthrow as it was then in Russia, the monarchy.
That's totally broken down now.
Like the intelligentsia now wants some sort of seemingly compassionate, i.e., woke movement where they don't have to pay the toll of ordinary working people.
Industry has moved abroad, there aren't loads of manufacturing jobs that founded the British left in the UK no more, nor in America.
Them jobs are in China, them jobs are in India.
Now, the political movement hasn't adjusted to that.
Like, there isn't a there like the closest thing to a populist working movement has come out of the right, and that was not an easy thing to predict 10-20 years ago because the anti-establishment heat was in the left, you know, because like when I was joining in them things on May Day or whatever, they were working class protests with the support you could tell of some students and all that kind of thing, i.e., proletariat and intelligentsia.
Now them kind of alliances have totally broken down.
Instead of that, all of the left are care about like woke issues, identity politic issues, and the problem with identity politics is it's worship of the self.
If you worship yourself, that's how the that's how Satan gets you.
You shouldn't be worshiping your own sexuality, you shouldn't be worshiping any aspect of yourself.
Your attachment to yourself is a problem, and let me tell you, I know all about that because I've had a lot of uh attachments to myself.
Alright, let's jump back in unless any of you got anything to say on my last outburst.
Let's get into Joe.
Country was built on Images.
We're losing our identity.
Charlie Kirk said everyone's got to be heard, and then he's spelled to take Truth.
Yeah, we know about that turn.
Everybody in this country, our ancestors for everything's a sword and standard, and he's tied to fucking through it.
Come on, man!
I'm Joe McCann, just your average Joe, not really a reporter, but I'm having a little go at it.
We're off in at London today to see what these marches are all about, and even chat to the anti-protesters and see what it is that they're up to reporting for stay free media.
I'm going up to uh London Days for first March, and I just think uh enough's enough.
We are coming second all the time.
Lovely opening link, by the way, Joe.
Great work, your first ever opening link.
Thanks, mate.
He's not a trained professional.
This is his first time.
He's just an average guy out there giving us his his thoughts and opinion.
He's what we want, isn't it?
He's a free man.
He's a free starts.
I like so these people, these are the first people you spoke to, is it mate?
Yeah, these lot was on the train on the way there.
It was quite funny.
Like that fella, it was his first time going to one of these marches.
He had his daughter with him, and she was just off into town to do a sponsored walk, nothing to do with it.
She knows we're connected to it.
I'm going to remark, well, right to drop her off anyway.
She's doing a fan run, raise money for spina bifida.
So I'm going down to support Tommy.
She's going to well support the whole bodily function, really, through the spine.
Um a lot of taxes work very hard.
And the money just doesn't seem to be going to us.
You going up as well?
No, I've got a sponsor.
Robinson's asking, no face masks, no alcohol.
Any of you've faced any sort of like backlash from mates or people that are sort of anti this, this sort of like right wing, racist and all that kind of stuff.
Definitely not racist.
It's about pride and our lower whole country basically.
Is it racist for me to say this?
Two weekends ago I was in Maiden on a family day out in the place called Pont Hill.
It was a family out, it was kind.
Go there with my two kids and my two grandkids.
And I felt uncomfortable there.
I felt uncomfortable.
I was there for an hour and I wanted to go home.
I'll leave it to you to guess why.
Because you're a racist?
I felt uncomfortable.
Do you feel like there's an agenda?
That's what that's what they want, don't they?
They want everyone to think people like us are right wing racist when absolutely not true.
I go up to Remembrance Sunday every year.
And last year, you had people doing opposing marches trying to stop here.
What is that all about?
Yeah, I'm there to applaud the veterans that fought for us that are still alive.
And you get people opposing.
I mean, that they right, they they got no place in this country.
I don't care whether they were born here, they're white, they're brown, they're black, whatever.
If you think that that is bad, that people want to go and applaud the veterans and fall in this country.
You have no place in this country, full style.

Investing involves risks.
Everything involves risks.
Everything, isn't it?
Life's risky.
What are you gonna do?
Avoid risk?
Still pay a high price for that.
That in itself is a risk.
It's a paradox.
You can't get out of it.
Including the potential of loss of principle.
What?
My principles!
I knew this would happen one day.
Past performance does not guarantee a results.
See terms and conditions.
Text these may apply.
This is a paid advertisement for Alio Capital, baby.
In case you thought it was me reading Shakespeare.
But that was an ad.
What do we want to see happen as a result of this?
Respect where you live.
Simple as that.
Just respect where you live.
And if you don't, want to come in, don't come in.
I lived in Dubai for four years.
You live by their rules.
And if you don't, you're out.
It's as simple as that.
We've got 10,000 people sat in our police cells.
That wasn't even bored in this country.
10,400.
How much is that costing?
The British tax bale.
Billions.
They seem like nice people.
I mean, what I find interesting is the opposing views and the way that this is viewed as like extreme right wing racism.
But then the people we spiked to down the train, they just seemed like, you know, normal sort of working class guys that uh are here more out of a sense of national pride and want to preserve what they love about the country.
This looks dead official.
Yeah, I agree with that now.
Good walk and talk from Joe.
Joe's a natural.
The guy that said if you go to Dubai, you gotta follow their rules.
Yeah, that's a good point.
Yeah, like say if you went to Japan, you've got to crack on with a Japanese, ain't you?
You can't go there and say, listen, you lot, get him fucking kimonos off.
You sort of like bricks.
It's true.
I mean, it's just it's crazy.
Like you don't go anywhere else and do that.
But tell you this though, everyone, all of us, this is one of the things that I'm finding um, what's the word?
Exhausting, debilitating, dispiriting about occupying this space.
Not that I don't love you and like for talking to you.
What I mean is every artifact that enters the public conversation immediately through some seemingly inherent viscosity, attracts on one side hatred and on the other side love, like everything.
Charlie Kirk's been assassinated.
He deserves it, he was despicable.
Fuck that guy, it's good, you know, Bob Villain, or he looked he's a martyr.
Like people are using it in both directions.
Like, and uh and then so that's something that's very recent and very pertinent and very sort of local to us.
We know Charlie Kirk, and we're like, it's so sort of got that level of sensitivity.
But it's happening with everything, like cracker barrel or whatever, like any little story gets politicised.
Now, that's because I suppose say the geezer there that was a bit more I was in Maidenhead the other day and I felt uncomfortable, and I'll leave you to guess what.
It's probably saying there's a lot of like I'm guessing he's saying a lot of Muslim folk there, it seems to be what he was saying, right?
Like now, I personally think it's all right to have some variety in a country, but you do also similarly have to recognise this is England.
If you've come to England, then presumably that's because you like England.
Now, look, where this gets complicated for me is when we say England, who's in charge of this country?
Who's running it?
Who's benefiting from its systems, its systems of government, its economic systems, its cultural systems, and the way the information is reported.
It's not working class people, and it's not actually Muslims either.
Like Muslims are not the elite.
The elite ain't a bunch of refugees in a jail.
Like you can like for me, the argument ends here.
If in a democracy you believe that the what democracy means is the will of the people represented through the ballot box, and people don't want refugees or like Muslim migrants in that's the end of the bloody conversation.
Have a referendum on it.
That's the end of it.
But what I want to continually point out, and it seems important to do it to me because we I think we're gonna see like you know, a lot of rise in tensions, is that you can't get nowhere with hatred.
You can't move this forward with hatred, whether it's in response to Charlie Kirk's murder or the issue of migration.
And what's particularly important, I think, when it comes to the issue of migration, is them people don't have real power.
I tried to talk about that with Tommy and did, but Tommy Robinson is very obviously focused on the issues that he believes to be central, and you know, that's obviously that's his purpose in life, and that's all cool.
But like what I feel like the contribution that we can make is the focus of your ire can't be people that don't have power, even if it's just practical.
There what like imagine this is a thought experiment.
Every mm migrant is out of the country.
I even see Carl there.
Every migrant is out of the country.
Now what you got?
Now what you got, you still got the media, you've still got the government, the media, and the corporate challenges that you had previously.
It's not gonna be now you can get councillor houses and you can get doctors' appointments more easily.
There's because there's a squeeze going on.
Do you know that they're selling off your NHS data to private insurance firms that Tony Blair is involved in and backing?
Do you know that?
Do you know that this issue is not the issue that will increase your sovereignty?
I understand it, and if that's what people, you know, I recognize it if you're in Epi and there's an hotel and there's someone's nonster 13-year-old girl, you're gonna have a visceral reaction to that.
And who's who can deny that reaction?
And the rape gang stuff, that's all terrible and awful.
But in general, it's a it's getting disproportion.
I think it's getting disproportionate attention when it comes to where real power lies.
Joe, did people like when you're there, mate?
Were people primarily talking about the issue of Migration, and did you know people talking about other things like you know I don't know, corruption, hypocrisy, media, whatever?
Um, I'd say primarily it was to stop migration, but a lot of it was about a sense of national pride coming together, proud to be British and want to preserve what it means to be British.
And I thought that was nice, you know.
That was something I liked about it.
Um asked the question to a few people, like you feel like there's some sort of globalist agenda, and we're it's gonna enforce more control, digital IDs, that kind of stuff.
And everyone that I said that to, they're like, yeah, potentially, and we would not have that either.
You'd see the same response you're seeing for this if that was to be enforced.
Do you see?
That's good.
Do you see like um did people talk about COVID at all and how the country changed?
Oh no, I didn't hear much talk about that to be honest.
Yeah, all right.
Yeah.
I mean the immigration and those things, especially how drastic they are.
Great distraction while they're behind the scenes, get more control, more power.
Yeah, because like now they are talking about like digital ID projects that have been discussed for a long while and now being discussed in light of controlling migration.
So like I I just can't help but think that Satan or evil or whatever words you you know, them benefits from confusion and division.
That's how that's for that's the kind of preferred state.
And I think that that we have to try and continually negotiate ourselves back to a point of love somehow.
But let's say let's watch some more of um uh Joe made this film with Liam, Liam Sullivan.
It's it looks really good so far.
This looks dead official now, walking around with a microphone.
I feel quite important.
It's nice, isn't it?
Flown back eight hours to come and do this.
Oh, beautiful.
So, where do you live now?
Interestingly, I live out in the UAE.
In the UAE.
Oh, amazing.
And the issue is not with Islam, it's with the type of people that we're bringing into this country.
Yeah, the moderates are perfectly fine.
Yeah, if you're educated, they're perfectly nice people.
It's just what we're allowing into this country is the absolute lowest of the low.
They don't understand how to fit in.
Even the people from the UAE government warn us do not let these people into your country, they will destroy it.
Obviously, there's push and pull factors, there's push factors that push them out of their own country.
Yeah, but there's we can't believe you let that guy get away at speaking to you like that.
He's asking for it, Joe.
You should have chinned him there and then you should have flat-ironed him right out.
I was still quite chirpy at this point.
Like, oh, where are you from?
Oh, amazing, and all that.
It was a bit of a mask.
In the end, I just had to start being myself, or I would have got the car can't keep this shit up anymore.
Nah.
I'm just gonna lean into being myself.
But I actually look at him, like whether you agree with him or not, he that was a pretty well put and cohesive argument.
Uh sometime you see, uh, you might not know, I don't know if you know.
There's a fellow called Edward Said, he wrote a book called Orientalism.
The book Orientalism sort of said that we assume that we're doing it right, and other places are doing it wrong, and we project a kind of shadow onto other countries, and we assume that people have to be inverted commerce, secularized and educated, like you know, what's it these but you know it's difficult to sort of argue against it's difficult to argue against if you're gonna have mass migration and it's gonna be mostly like young men,
and those young men are not familiar with the customs, and in some cases do not respect and don't even like the customs, and many of the sort of protests we've seen out of France and our country that um like where there are sort of um you know in migrant disturbances, it does look like people that are not in tune with what's going on in like a modern city like Paris, then it and so his point there is a pretty I don't know, seems like a pretty valid one.
Right, let's bang on our videos, get back to our chirpy old Joe chatting to people in Waterloo.
Yeah, but there's pull factors that pull them into here.
And if you're gonna leave somewhere where you live in poverty, and you can come over here and be guaranteed of cash, A four-star hotel, a free cell phone, and you get to live for free for life and eat nice food.
Why are you not going to try and come here?
You have to stop the pull factor.
Yeah.
Stop the benefits, and it will stop most of the people coming.
Stop the benefits, and the ones that are here will send themselves home.
We can't continue to make this content without the support of our partners.
Is a quick message from one now.
Chagas disease is on the rise.
There's a rare bug spreading a serious parasite, and most people don't even know they've been bitten by it.
Chagas disease is spread by the Kissenberg, was long considered a distant problem.
But cases have recently been detected in multiple US states, including California, Texas, Arizona, Louisiana, and Florida.
Oh no, I live there.
And I'm always kissing people.
No, I'm happily married.
Early signs such as fever, rash, fatigue, swollen lymph nodes, me lymph nodes, they're enormous, they're hanging down.
They're like water wings under there.
May seem mild.
Yeah, over time the disease can bring severe heart damage, digestive dysfunction, and even this is the big one.
Death.
The worst side effect, because there's no coming back from that.
Unless you are our Lord and Saviour.
Oh, or if you accept him.
Brilliant!
Not to fear.
The wellness company's parasite cleanse, compounded of ivermectin and mobendazole, is a solution.
Ivermectin paralyzes and kills parasites by disrupting their nervous systems, while mobendazole starves them by blocking glucose absorption.
I'm starting to feel sorry for these little parasites.
This potent combination delivers broad spectrum defence against intestinal and tissue parasites.
Each kit is doctor prescribed, compounded in the United States, tested for potency and represents the gold standard in parasite defence.

I was saying to Russell, so like as not being a media person, my interview technique, or my whole philosophy around it, really, it's like when we used to play Assassin's Creed, yeah.
You just roam around, you walk up to people, press triangle, and you get all these different like options of responses and that.
That's how I see it.
Go up to this bloke, press square, go up to her, press circle.
So what brings you out is it more a case of national sort of pride?
Just to stand up and say we've had enough.
Yeah.
We've all had enough.
Do you know what?
We are not against immigration.
This country was built on immigration.
Yeah.
100%.
You look at the hospitals, it's full of full of people that have come over here, they've immigrated, they're working their socks off, they're playing into our system.
It's the people that are coming here on boats, getting it all for nothing while our kids are struggling.
Have a little chat of us, tell us why you're here today.
That was a good interview.
And I like the phrase, working your socks off in our NHS.
Also, Joe, that is a good philosophy.
You're using Assassin's Creed philosophy.
Just go up someone, triangle, circle.
It worked.
See, but work for the most part.
I like that feature, and all he was good stuff in.
Yeah, he's alright, just having a beer, isn't he?
He's chatting as good as that's the sort of earth British.
Me and Joe used to like when we was hanging out on Saturdays when I was living in the UK, we used to go to our like our let's call them mental health uh meetings together.
And like we used to do this thing, flaneuring.
Um flaneurin is when you just go into the world and like just have an adventure, just sort of follow your nose, as it were, see where you end up.
Like someone might invite you to do a thing, you might find yourself in a pet shop with reptiles, you might find yourself rescuing a fallen cyclist in the middle of the road.
You still play that every day.
Oh, yeah, that's why I do.
I'm playing it now.
Yeah, sort of go with the flow.
I once see Tucker Carlson say he goes, you know, Russell Brand, like if so he met ran into someone and they said you want to go to the Maldives, he would just go.
And I feel like, oh, I like that he thinks that about me, because actually, I don't want to go to Maldives.
I went there during COVID and they fucking locked me in my hotel room.
It was a nightmare.
Tell us why you're here today.
I can't I can't, because of my job.
No, I can't.
You can get the sacks.
This is only Russell Brand's YouTube.
It's interesting though, isn't it?
Like, it's quite a polar.
So Russell Brand's YouTube.
Listen.
Put that out everywhere.
Let's get this.
Let's get that woman's facts.
Like that cold play couple.
A polarising thing, and I've come across people that are having difficulties with colleagues that are turning up today.
And I'm not sure how feel about it.
And I think that comes down to the perception of mainstream media.
Oh, when you go like travel around Europe and that, if you're in Italy or Spain or whatever, like I like to see that country's flag and things that remind me of it.
Do you know what I mean?
Go to Italy, pizza restaurants, life pasta plastic ass and all that, football and in the pubs, Italian flags.
Do you feel like this country is slowly starting to lose its identity?
Yes.
Yeah.
You can tell on the streets, not the high streets.
Or what I'm want to make clear is it's not all about colour.
People are welcome in this country if they come here legally through the right routes, but when they're here, they need to adhere to our values.
Here we are at Black Friar Station.
This is the start of the meeting point.
Like my value is I like to wear this colourful outfit as my values.
Yeah, it's good.
Like the thing like that, this is what I've this is my legacy of the long time I spent in counterculture from a different perspective.
Is that say if you imagine that high street, the apocryphal high street of that man's story?
What's that high street like now?
What would it have been like in the 1950s or 60s?
Maybe like a little greengrocer, a local boozer, you know the person who runs the greengrocer, you know the person even that runs the bookies, you know the person that's working in the shop where you can get like you know, your butcher, your fishmonger.
Now, what's it like?
Every single like man, where I live now, it's just Walmart after Walmart.
It's just like one long massive road, about five Walmarts on it.
All that revenues going to one place.
So the homogenization and the stripping of an identity, and it's different in our country, the UK, to uh to America, because it's not got the s you know, a deeper history.
But I think all of us want communities where you know the people that are selling your stuff, you know the people that are at your schools, and you have a sense of connection.
Curiously enough, this global technology of immediate communication could be used to create once again localized community, true democracy, and open and transparent communication and government.
It's not getting used to do that, it's getting used to create mass surveillance, censorship, total control, centralization of control.
And the and that's the reason for that is obvious because the possibility now exists for a completely different way of life.
And while we're all mired in hating one another and quarrelling and squabbling and every single thing that happens in the news, trying to turn it to our advantage or to our opponents' disadvantage.
The people and the sets of institutions that have been in power maybe for a very very long time, can certainly governed by something that's been in power for a very long time, continue in ascendancy.
Look at what happened during COVID, power consolidated, wealth transferred, the ability to legislate increased.
And the UK since then it's gotten worse and worse and worse.
The US is on a sort of different path when it comes to government just because a populist right-wing government got in, but it's not on a different path.
You know, people I think are starting to sense there are some things that are beyond the reach and remit of government.
But really, what's required is a devolution of power, a decentralisation of power.
And I'm not sure that we are even we don't even really know how have those conversations yet, because we're so mired in the right did this, the left did that, Muslims did this, Jews done that.
Like it we're still caught up in that stuff.
In point, we're gonna cross the bridge, Stanford Street.
This looks like it could just be the tip of the iceberg.
Yeah, Stormers awanka.
So where we live in crew, it's like 80% of them and 20%.
That's good stuff.
Clip that's really good.
Yeah, I'm on tele, yeah, good.
Stammers awanka.
8% of us, right?
And the town fucked, and you walk around and you'll you're alienated in your own town.
If you're watching us on YouTube, click the link in the description to watch the rest of this extraordinary piece of journalism.
Flag, get your flag!
They're charging 15 down the road, they're robbing bastards.
We're getting told that if you fucking love England, I love England, charging 15 down the road, robbing bastards.
Well, tell you what you've done a good job of you and Leamia, is you have captured the flavour of Britain.
Like it's it's not all.
Hello, today we were at the protests, Tommy Robinson, hero to some, villain to others, recently released from prison, and he had an unusual appearance from Elon Musk advocating it like it's not like that.
It's like you flare your flagship.
Everyone has to clarify by saying I'm not a racist, but from an outside perspective, if this was a tourism video, I'd want to go visit these guys.
Yeah, yeah, that I like I was wondering, like, mate, the thing is is with Tommy Robinson, what he has totally delivered on is something I used to s fantasise about in my early revolutionary days.
Uh at least when I would contemplate it.
People that go to football matches are politically activated.
Like them lot, what they do you reckon?
Like Huddersfield or something or Bradford fans, you know, them geezer with a tattoos all over their heads.
Did you say did it feel like football culture, Joe?
It did, especially to well, there was four games on in London.
I think three of them were derbies, weren't they?
Milwaukee.
Tottenham.
West Ham, Tottenham, and Chelsea Brentford.
So they chose the day.
They they did it like so they do you think they the organisers chose the day so that there was a lot of football fans in London.
Maybe.
Maybe.
A lot of them did pop up towards the end.
I think you see that in this.
Well, you will see it, because I was right in the mix of it then.
Well, that's because you're an intrepid journalist.
You're very much like what's his name?
You're the Robert Fisk of the modern day.
Robert Fisk.
That's you, Robert Fisk.
If you stand by your flag, you're a racist, you're a fascist.
And I've literally, you know, grown up as a mixed race kid in England, born here, born in Folstone.
I've been attacked by blacks, whites, Asians.
I don't see race, I see people.
Obviously, an annoying person.
Everyone's attacking, yeah.
And I've been supported and loved by blacks, whites and Asians.
1977, when we were kids, you're allowed to put a flag up.
Now all of a sudden you're not allowed to.
I'll be honest with you, mate.
I thought about buying a load of flags to bring it yourself.
It's a good little racket, that's it.
So here we are, I've just come over Blackfriars Bridge.
As you can see, the road is completely full of people.
It's not actually been closed.
The road is still open.
The old bill there, and they're turning cars around.
I mean, let's hope that they can uh keep the cars out for the duration of the march because we all know what could happen.
How's it going so far?
Yeah, really good.
Really enjoying it.
Really good to support Tommy while it after he what he's been through.
Yeah.
And uh, and just to get a message across that, you know, had enough, everybody's had enough, things have to change.
Guardians who expected, say why!
And we say mainstream media!
No, not even mainstream from the government.
It's coming from the government.
They're coming from no one else apart from the government, they're trying to divide our people.
That's what they're trying to do to defy people.
At the end of the day, like we we thought how many fucking wars to keep it out is, and then all of a sudden 20 30 years later, we're just losing our fucking backbone.
Why?
You know, and then I'm speaking on behalf of black people, white people, uh English people.
At the end of the day, we we just want our country back to where it fucking was.
I want to safe, I want to safe Yeah, it's good, Joe.
You're getting good stuff there, mate.
That's good, that's what we want.
Yeah, I'm doing that for our grandkids.
It's nice.
Safe future for my child.
I've got no problem with the cultures.
Well, the problem is is is ours being watered down.
Ten years ago, there weren't enough homes that have been built.
I think they need to build million million homes just for the British people.
That was ten years ago.
Right now, you're letting 50,000 people win, what is it, a month a week?
I don't even know, but how many people are they gonna build a host of the normal stuff?
They can't even build a home for that.
How are they gonna build a home for them?
People got nowhere to live.
Fucking the hospital times are up.
That chant I don't think is a good chant because the focus of the chant is refugees.
Not being like say it loud, say it clear, refugees not welcome here.
Like we got I don't know, man.
I'm gonna brainstorm that.
Although when I did try to introduce some new chants at West Ham, it was one of the worst experiences of my life.
I tried to bring about the use of Billy Joel's uh Uptown Girl to sing Upton Park, and I gotta tell ya, it was not received very well in the chicken run.
What do you think of Kia Starmer?
Wake up!
We're going to see the night!
We're going to see the night!
I think it's important to stand up for free speech and not um hide your hide your thoughts for fear of being called out, for example, as a racist.
I'm not against she's lovely, I'm glad she's in it.
Well, you know, I just want to speak very freely but quite quietly.
I'll not be crazy.
What if she was the racist and she's like, I'm not afraid to say it.
They all need to get the fit like real side.
The masculine of the Negro, it is fundamentally different and the cackling Jew can never be blessed.
The Muslim is a pedophile, but Not against immigration per se.
But the amount uh is causing a lot of pressures, and ultimately it's affecting our young people who are now finding it hard to if you measure the skull of the Spaniard, they'll side is fundamentally different.
And so it's stored in their minds, is simply thoughts of all fighting.
What's it like in your local area?
Things changed a lot over the last few years.
Yeah, and they're all at Withersfield in the old RAF.
So they're bringing them all into the town.
Obviously, nobody's taking their kids to the parks.
And that you know that not safe.
They go out delivering at night for an Indian and they're being chased up the road spite.
Really?
Yeah, in their car.
Oh wow.
You know, it's just I've got two daughters.
It's just not nice, is it?
In one word, how do you describe Keir Starmer?
So my name's uh Yes, go on, love the one word.
She went straight for it.
The one word that she thought she paused for a second, Joe.
At this point, how long have you been here at this point, mate?
Uh we've been there about two hours.
Yeah.
Yeah, it was just this was just coming up to the meeting point now, the main sort of meeting point on Stanford Street.
It all got a bit messy after that.
It was a logistical nightmare.
But it's because there were so many people there.
So many people.
And the police started shutting down roads because the counter-protest was coming the opposite way, and they were all gonna meet uh Whitehall, and it just yeah, it fucked it right up, to be honest with you.
In a way, though, it's good they you know that it say if you wanted to look at this from a conspiracy theorist perspective, and I do, you would say like that they could have they would have let that happen so they could report violence scenes coloured today's protests with Tommy Robinson, you know, and they did like the fact that it was responsibly policed.
When we spoke to Tommy, he said how much com uh contact they had had with the police, ensuring that it was well handled, and it was, wasn't it, Joe?
They did a pretty good job.
I will say I found the one point where the two sides were sort of clashing a little bit.
I was drawn to that because we we made our way to Trafalgar Square and we were at the back of the stage, but the police wouldn't let us through to get our press pass.
They suggested walking round.
So we walked along Trafalgar Square where the other lot were coming in, and then you had a lot of the football lads coming out as well, and it got a little bit tasty, of course, or straight into that.
If there would have been some violence happened, then the numbers would have increased.
Then CNN and stuff would have reported that there were millions of violent protesters.
You think they judge the numbers, but if it was a peaceful thing, not too many people were there.
I think that there's a vested interest in making this if you think of extreme, extreme is another way of saying small.
It's like something in the middle is big at its extremities, it's smaller.
I don't think they can acknowledge the numbers without accepting that what this amounts to is a rejection of real power.
That's where I again what when I talk about the issue of migration and Islam.
I'm saying that if you've continued to focus on that aspect, even if that's important to you, then you are you are branding your movement.
And and I would say that if the people of Britain want to end migration, then that's the end of it.
I would say that end it, like, or you know, impose whatever conditions people vote for.
But what the focus really is what why are we why is this happening?
Like don't isn't it strange that it's happening in France and Germany and even in the United States?
Is it part of an idea to create social disruption?
Measurably, uh as someone on the left would say, the the increase of migrant labour reduces the ability of indigenous workers to demand a good income for their toil.
But it also in extreme, it means that there are no jobs available.
Also, it changes the um inflection of an entire community, and so I can see why that's the thing that hits people first.
It is important, um, but but what are the steps that lead to it?
Who's making those choices and ultimately who is benefiting from it?
Those are the questions that I want to be answered by the Robert Fisk of our day, Joe McCann.
So my name's uh Jack, I'm from Australia, and I've come here today to unite with the kingdom.
And I brought this rap to pay homage to my forefathers who helped fight for England, and that's my grandfather snally.
Um so at the age of 24, bomb bomb Germany to get rid of the Nazis.
Sorry.
Two seconds, yeah.
Well the thing is it's not just about remembering our fall and then our diggers and our our forefathers, but about honouring their sacrifice because if England falls, if the West falls, everything they have done will be in vain.
We can't allow that to happen.
So you know, I'm taking a stand.
So that in mind, what would you like say if you were to describe Keir Starmer in one word?
Star Wang, Kamers and Wack.
Keystama Pedifers is not keeping our kids safe.
And it's united a whole country through the hate we feel for him.
The country nice work there.
Where's she from?
She's got a whole country with a hate you feel from him.
I would say possibly that's South London.
Well, do Joe somewhere like that?
She might be from like Catford, somewhere like that, wearing them shades.
She ain't like that, he's united.
Oh country, they like the paedophiles.
The country's gone to shit, doesn't it?
Come on, let's have it, right?
All this trans shit and all these immigrants.
You're not supposed to swear.
I'll fucking I'll fucking swear the fuck out of it.
I'll tell them as it is, they're Lord of Bastards.
Starmer, what a toss pot.
Enough's enough.
We've given we want our streets back.
We want people of England, Great Britain to know that we won't stand for anymore.
Enough is enough.
We're losing our identity.
Laura from Sorry, what brings you out here today?
I just think it's appalling that these small boats come over and we don't know who they are.
This is the biggest thing.
We don't know who they are, whether they're rapists, murderers or anything.
I think it's an absolute disgrace.
If I came over off holiday and I had no passport, I wouldn't be allowed back in here.
But they can come over on a boat, get a four-star hotel, meals, phones, everything is absolutely disgraceful.
Do you feel like you've been looked after by this government or misrepresented?
Misrepresented.
What would you say if you describe him in one word?
Immature.
That's kinder than what other people have said.
Yeah, Starmer's a one.
There you go.
It's uh denser concentration now, Union Jacks.
And uh still seems to be pretty good spirits here.
Everyone's alright.
No drama so far.
Yo!
Do you want to have a quick chat of us?
What's your name?
Where are you from?
Uh Stephen Clair from Boston Reading!
All is one today, lads.
That's fucking lovely.
That's lovely.
Like Sugar's I'm from Reading, mate!
Oh, that's lovely.
Reading's like one of the uh towns of the South or cities, actually in the South, where Ricky Gervais is from, as a matter of fact, that little cluster of cities around there.
Yeah, you live in there now, Joe, aren't you?
I live there.
That's where I live.
As your homeboy, your man there from Reading, uh, it's just sort of it it makes it evokes a sort of a beautiful sentimentality about just seeing people have some spirit, you know.
How many people see uh seeing people express themselves and say like to see them in a sort of celebratory instead of condemned condemned mode, you know.
Lovely, Joe.
Well done, mate, well done both of you.
What's currently going on in this country will no longer be tolerated.
I don't care if you're gonna call us racist or sexist or whatever label you want to stick on us, we will not stand for what we're currently standing for.
Violence is not the answer.
We need to start talking more.
Once we stop talking, otherwise we're gonna stop talking, violence occurs.
So we need to peacefully get through this.
This country is a Christian.
What are you saying, Dave?
Is there go as saying violence is nothing, and so we need to start talking more, and then it showed the trolley Kirk.
That's pretty good.
Yeah, that's pretty beautiful.
You did a great job, Joe.
Yeah, you've done good, mate.
Really good.
Was you talking about did people talk about Charlie Kirk much?
Uh we saw a few posters and that in tribute to him.
Um the only guy we spoke to that actually mentioned him was on the let's say extreme left side, and he didn't have very kind words.
But I think that is in this uh in this clip, so you're gonna see him come up at some point.
I'm looking forward to him.
Alright, we what we've got on me, I've got to do these links in a sec, but it's a Christian country.
Jesus says in the Bible, people are called by my name.
If they'll humble themselves and return to me, Jesus says I will heal their land.
This country is fall asleep.
But that was waking it up.
Time to get right with Jesus and return.
We need a better goblin.
We need a better government for a brighter future.
What do you like to say at Keir Starmer?
He's a cun.
Let's speak to some of the stewards.
Do you want to have a little chat with us?
Victoria from Penn, what brings you here today then?
Um our children and their future.
Yeah.
Christianity as well to bring back our cultural beliefs of Christianity.
That seems to be the general consensus.
some people like seem to have a fear that we're losing our culture, our sense of identity, especially like, the Christian values of the nation.
*hourly, it Gasly, "Charlie"I'm from Pakistan, but I come from USA.
The reason why because I'm British, you know, so I'm gonna stand with my brother and sister in in this time.
I believe, you know, like we as a nation, we need to come together.
And I just want to say one thing, you know, like Jesus loves everyone, you know, and that's why we are this bri this nation need to come back to the God, you know, because they move God from their churches and houses and and parliament and the hospitals, and that's why other people are taking over.
We need to come stand together and shout Jesus because Jesus is the king of United Kingdom.
This is the line from...
This line here is really important.
but everybody holds here and doesn't push forwards because we want to do this in an audio and sensible manner to make sure everybody claims the end they say guys good, we've got Ian Caldon, Caldon Hale ready?
My name's Lana Wolf.
Like I feel like everything's been shifting in the last few weeks, especially in the last few days um since Charlie Kirk.
Everyone's saying it's the turning point, and uh yeah, it seems like people are finally waking up.
So yeah.
It seems like it, doesn't it?
I mean, there's a lot of people turned up today to represent the working class.
Do you think there's gonna be a change in government?
Well, I hope so.
We all hope so.
Kirst Taver is a wanker!
So we're now here at Charing Cross.
We've just got the train over because we've heard that North of the River, we're gonna come into the counter-protesters.
Hey, you getting on there, mate, you're alright?
You up for having a little chat of us?
Independent media.
How are you doing, guys?
Do you want to have a little chat of us?
Independent media?
I think they call this dead air.
Would you mind having a little chat of us?
Sorry.
What about this geezer?
I'm a raving liberal at the moment, not really.
None of them will talk to these people.
They won't do it.
They won't have it.
We'd have seen that in America.
Yeah.
Um I'm just here to observe, let's just say that.
I think it's safe to say we're we're observing in the country and we love this country, and yeah, we want to be united.
Um we're from an independent media channel.
Can we have a little chat with you?
Oh, go on, go for it.
Yeah.
We're not um I'm not a spokesperson for stand up to racism, so you'd have to speak to them when they arrive.
But you you're a spokesperson for you.
What brings you out here today?
What do you mean?
What brings me out here today?
To stand up to racism.
Yeah.
So I mean the general views of stand up to racism is that the UK.
Where am I from?
Woodley.
Can you leave, please?
Free media, it's Russell Brown's YouTube channel.
Yeah, we know that.
So we spoke to Unite the Nation and all that, and we want to speak to a few people from Stand Up to Racism.
Because otherwise we're only getting one side of what's going on.
They'll be here, so they'll be where the ones they'll be wearing orange.
Yeah.
They will be able to do that.
Filming this, just don't talk to me.
Okay, fine.
It's like that, is it?
Yes, it is.
Mm.
Well, there you go.
Why will they not speak to you?
I mean, I wouldn't want to speak for them, you know, out of respect, but I think you could have an educator guess.
You know how it goes, you know.
If you're sure of your conviction, you're happy to have open debate.
I mean, maybe you support one football team, you're passionate about Arsenal, one new up.
So I'm a boxing fan, but say I support me too.
So say I support your nemesis, which is who?
Tottenham.
We could have a five-steer debate, but still be friends and have a beer.
Okay, well, some people can't do that.
You know, and that's a problem.
So I understand.
God bless you, guys.
Yeah, you're shooting wank.
Come on, get amongst it.
Yeah.
How are you getting on?
You're having a good day.
We're here to talk to anyone.
We're not getting much out of them in the minute, but you seem quite lively, so we thought we'd have a won't we?
Do you feel like the UK's lost its uh traditional Christian values?
Totally.
It won't after today because this is proven it.
You think this is gonna be the catalyst for change?
Yeah.
We need to get rid of the sorry, we need a big cigar blessing.
Fair play, you'd never had time.
My my middle son, bless him, we've got a lovely lady, she's a black lady, we don't know what she c what colour she's, but she's with us.
So we're not we're not we know I've got a Chinese uh my other son's got a we've got a mix right again Chinese mixed Chinese little girl.
I'm from Totland.
I'm from South Tottenham.
It's like a bit living in the Bronx.
All my life, my mate's all black.
I'm gonna go over there and be the biggest hypocrite in the world because all the people I mate are black.
So what?
Listen, it's not who you are, it's what you are.
And as you just said, Christians.
Listen, I've got music, man, bloody hell.
But you take as you find, didn't you?
Listen, you can respect people for for your values.
And I think that was so so sad about Charlie Kirk.
He was never rude, he was always honest.
He could speak on every subject.
And what would you like to say to the opposing views over here that unite against racism?
What would you like to say to him?
What racism?
Well, I should say, I probably I'm gonna probably end up with I've got a mixed race grand hope, right?
And I've got my son with a lovely, I've to say she's black because I can't lie.
But what's racism?
What when you see that, what thoughts and feelings does it provoke.
Well, I see that though protesting because they're one that immigrants are, right?
Yeah, but the immigrants are the ones who are working for us getting all the money.
So a lot of people like this side is sort of against racism, yeah, whereas Tommy Robinson's sort of march is to unite the kingdom to tighten up the rules on immigration and to empower the working class people to feel like they're kind of being neglected.
Well that makes sense, you know, that makes sense.
You know, I agree with that Steve.
Yeah.
Because I love immigrant people come here, but they don't do anything.
Yeah, they just get like pregnant, I was full child, uh, what's it called?
The service of the colour.
Like income support.
Income support, yeah, exactly.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They just get money for free, and you got and you see people, hardworking people just struggle, struggle and don't get anything.
So they're and that that was the general consensus we got from speaking to the United Kingdom, like, is it's working class people that feel like there's limited resources in this country and they're not really being looked after.
It seems to me like it's very polarising views, and maybe the truth is somewhere in the middle, you know?
Yeah.
Maybe it's to sort of cause division, I don't know.
Yeah, but I don't think it's nothing to do with this.
You don't think so?
No, that's interesting.
Yeah, you change my point of view, you know.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, okay.
Well that's that's pretty cool.
Yeah, thanks, mate.
Charlie Kirk said everyone's got to be heard, and then he spouted hatred all over the all over the place.
In fact, his last words were about gun crime.
And uh, you know, he died, but he he he didn't think it was gonna happen to him.
Now the whole of uh NAGA are going, whoa, you kill one of our own.
Actually, it was one of their own that killed one of our own.
You know?
Uh with actually getting us back into Europe because uh no one else is apart from the the Liberal Party.
Um and loads of uh the Labour members and old Labour uh members would want us to go back into Europe.
Yeah, yeah, I think you're doing I think you're doing good, just trying to carry on doing what you do.
I've since there is some clips, you're really confident.
Doing alright.
Going up to him, pressing triangle, pressing circle.
Most of the people we spoke to, if they heard what these lot think they are, they wouldn't like it.
Like that, matey, that Dennis Penis.
Yeah.
It kind of feels like the media narrative, like Islamophobic, right wing extremists and all that.
I didn't see a lot of that when I was over there.
I don't know about you, I thought uh just working class people, innit?
That feel like they're not being looked after.
And I think that's what it comes down to, limited resources and people feeling like they're misrepresented.
Alright, lads.
We need to get to the space to get our press pass.
Yeah.
You're gonna have to go back.
We can't just like unite the kingdom.
And stand up for racism.
It looks like our meeting in this epic centre of action.
Now, now, now, one!
We are the people!
We won't be silent!
Smash the fascists now now!
Do you want to have a little chat of us?
Stay free media.
Who reckon's the best one to talk to here?
I don't even want to talk to us.
What would you say United Kingdom represents to you?
It's kind of hard, isn't it?
Hey, getting on there, guys.
Do you want to talk to us from Stay Free Media?
Independent news channel.
Thank you though.
You having a good time?
I said I'll be alright.
Talk to us from Stay Free Media.
Just trying to get the vibe of what's going on.
Cast from March so far.
First, we're from Stay Free Media.
Russell Brown's YouTube channel.
Oh, okay, absolutely not.
How are you getting on?
You enjoying the march?
Oh man, it's all love.
We're in the name of the Lord.
How's it going, uh loving one talk to us?
We're from Stay Free Media, Independent Media Channel.
Here we are at Trafalgar Square with uh stand up to racism.
No one really wants to talk to us by the look of things, it's pretty tough.
A lot of dead air.
I mean most people like it when they see a camera and a microphone, they want a bit of it, but these ain't having none of it.
This Amazon delivery.
Oh no, no one's in.
What do you want to say to the people?
Um if you side with the far right, you're siding with people who don't care about you.
Alright.
The left is about giving rights to minorities, the right is trying to take them away.
We have been round the soup again.
We are in the conditions that Mussolini had hit that took power in the 1930s.
Let's not let history repeat itself.
Stay with the left.
So what's the solution?
Where do we go from here?
How do we bring people together?
We need to make sure that the left is represented in parliament in terms of pro-establishment parties.
And we also need marches like this.
Spread awareness and make it clear that we will not tolerate anything.
We will not tolerate apartheid, we will not tolerate genocide, we will not tolerate poverty, we will not tolerate racism, we will not tolerate misogyny, transphobia, homophobia.
We are a coalition of the oppressed.
And everyone deserves a voice.
I mean, we need to be able to sit down, we need to be able to talk, and we need to be able to build a future built on love and compassion.
Everyone here wants a better country.
We just need to make it clear how that is happening.
Getting rid of migrants, you have to ask yourself who's going to be next.
What would you say to Unite the Kingdom?
Do not participate in the far right rallies.
What do you think of Keystarmer?
Uh I think he's a monster.
I think he's complicit in genocide.
I think he's an enemy of civil rights, and he's a complete treacher to the left.
It's interesting because a lot of people on the United Kingdom have the same view on that.
So that's one thing that both sides agree on.
We found a threat.
We found it, we found the niche for like this is going today.
Yeah, I I'm actually a little disappointed.
I was hoping for more people actually on this side of the side of it here.
Would you say that United Kingdom is a far right movement?
No.
I wouldn't.
This is what we've sort of gathered.
It seems to me the truth somewhere in the middle in the grey area.
How do we bring people together to talk?
I don't know.
That's the problem, isn't it?
How do you?
There's been a uh a narrative to divide.
Because it's is actually other classes that are the real issue.
Amen.
And they're trying to divide it up.
Take the take the eye off the narrative.
We need to bring people together, start a movement.
People against the establishment.
Alright there, guys, we're from Stay Free Media, Independent Media Channel.
Do you want to have a little chat of us?
No, thank you.
No?
No, thank you.
Have a lovely day, though, Chabs.
Have a lovely day though, Chabs.
Off your fuck.
There you go.
Off your fuck.
Fred, love not hate.
That is a beautiful message, and that's what we're all about.
We are men of God.
What would you like to say to the people?
This is a real time for unity.
I don't want to see any more violence.
And I think that it's important that we continue dialogue.
Oh men, beautiful message.
Thanks very much.
What made you think that we're from the opposing side?
It's a smell.
Oh wow.
It's the cigars.
It's the cigars.
Too many cigars.
Fascists!
Anti-fascist!
Anti-fascist!
Uh Tommy Robinson is a very red face.
And he looks like a nonce and a Pedon here's Timothy Racket.
What is it you don't like about him?
having his physical appearance.
That he hangs around with nonces and paedophiles, would be the main thing, and that he stays on social unrest in the country.
I'd say it's the main thing.
The fact that they divide us, rather unites of the country, which does the main thing to me.
What's your message, Keir Starmer?
What politicians?
Politicians.
A good step in the right direction would be this lot, recognising that desperate, they've got more in common with a desperate Somalian than Tommy fucking Robinson or Nigel fucking Farage.
How many holidays, foreign holidays?
I couldn't tell ya.
It's more than I have.
I will ask you though, why the masks?
Because of threats, isn't it?
In what sense?
Well, like er, there's people there, people off that side have been throwing bottles, been doing gun signs against against us.
So that's a threat, if you see what I mean.
No one here is threatening anyone individually.
I understand.
Do you see what I mean?
You feel safe?
I feel safe.
Yeah.
I mean, but well, that's the difference to me.
Is erm.
No one here has got a personal problem with anyone on that side.
Right.
It's the ideology.
What Tommy Robinson stands for.
And the way he's in.
He's in the hands of Nigel Farage in fucking.
He's like, he's not a little man from the streets and from Lumen, is he?
He's uh he's a very clever man.
He's managed to get where he is.
And he's got a following.
Do you see anyone ideologising any particular person on this?
On this side.
It seems a bit more peaceful over here.
Oh, that's a relief.
So what we got here is Unite the Kingdom this side, who we spoke to when we got here, really.
We've been on the other side, which is stand up to racism.
And it felt kind of hostile over there, I'm not gonna lie.
I feel safer on this side.
There's not well, there's no one's wearing a mask over here, are they?
Whereas over there, there was a lot of mass figures, uh, and a lot of hostility.
It seems charged.
I will say that.
All right, the schools, the children, everybody in this country, our ancestors fought for every piece of swords you stand on, and it's time to fucking ruin it.
You pay for them, you take them back.
Jesus walls, our ancestors praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
Through this, we didn't fight for this!
There he is.
Here we are, Lynn, we're on the front line, it's clashing down here.
Man of peace, man of God.
Hey, who's me?
Who's me?
He's on the wrong side, fuck him off over there.
Good boy!
I ain't fucking doing nothing!
Let's peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace.
Come on, lads!
Come on, you left.
Let's keep it calm, boys.
It's been a serious divide along here, but this seems to be a little point where both sides stay free media, Russell Brown.
Stay free media For Palestine What do we think of the lefties?
We can't stand the lefties And they're on the lefty side What?
We're returning to Stay free media, Russell Brown.
Fuck Palestine, not a likes them!
So what do we feel the police right now?
A bunch of arseholes!
Well, they're trying to keep a divide.
I think they're just trying to keep the peace.
But they're still acting like they're on the lefty side.
They're pushing us but not pushing theirs.
Have you noticed that?
Why is it always us?
Always us, so you always come.
Which is what we mean when we're talking about two-tier policing?
Yeah.
We've tried to make this a peaceful protest, but no, the police are all for them and against us.
Hey, what's going on?
I'm in Vincenzoa Dime!
I know I am a warrior in Vincenzoa Dime!
I'm in Vincenzoa Dime!
I'm in Vincenzoa Dime!
I know I am, I sure I am, I'm making a sale on the line!
We need any more clashes.
Wait, there was bottles being front of us.
Ah no, I know.
We're getting out of here, Willie.
look?
I don't know, mate.
The thing is, everyone in the side, no one's wearing masks.
It was all about peace and whatnot, but the other side seemed to be antagonizing a little bit of crowd violence, in my opinion.
And look, these are working class ads.
If you give it, you're gonna get it.
I thought it was quite a good atmosphere for the most part.
Carnival vibes, people coming together seemed alright.
Towards the end there, a little bit more charged, like two polarizing groups kind of clashing.
Do you know what I mean?
Um I think there's misrepresentation through the media about United Kingdom.
It seems to me that like stand up against racism, that's a strong message.
And I think everyone agrees with that.
I think everyone on United Kingdom agrees with that, you know.
So something's getting lost in translation there.
But the common view from both sides is Keystar's awanka.
Joe, you've done a fantastic job there, also.
Liam Sullivan, great work with directing it and cutting it together.
That's excellent, mate.
Tell us what you uh mostly took from that day, Joe.
Um, mostly, I'll tell you what, this was the interesting thing, right?
From both sides not having this government, neither sides are having the government.
So that's saying that could be agreed on potentially, although no one on the left seemed to want to talk to us at all.
So to find even common ground where people can talk is gonna be difficult.
Um but I found everyone on the Unite the Kingdom side had a real sense of national pride, and it was actually quite beautiful to be a part of it.
I I really enjoyed being amongst it, it was all good spirits, and a lot of there was a lot of shouts for you know, Christ is king and bringing you know the Christian values of the country and all that sort of stuff.
I thought that was pretty beautiful too.
So yeah, look, it was nice, man.
And it feels like this is just the beginning of something to me.
Yeah, I think you're right about that.
I think it's gonna have incredible consequences.
