- 0:06Speaker 1: Happy Tuesday. It is the time of week where we
- 0:10Speaker 1: get the inside scoop with breit Bart News, and I

- 0:22Speaker 1: And I love reading what breke Bart News London Deputy
- 0:25Speaker 1: editor Curtains and Dalka writes about he's going to be
- 0:27Speaker 1: able to break this down what in the hell is
- 0:29Speaker 1: going on in England? Kurt, Welcome back to the fifty
- 0:31Speaker 1: five Krsee Morning Show. It's a pleasure to have you
- 0:33Speaker 1: on the program today.
- 0:34Speaker 2: Thanks ha having me Brian well.
- 0:36Speaker 1: And no expert on matters political in the UK. But
- 0:41Speaker 1: Keir Starmers stepped down, and as I understand it, between
- 0:44Speaker 1: nineteen forty five and twenty sixteen, Britain had only thirteen
- 0:47Speaker 1: prime ministers and yet with him stepping down, this is
- 0:51Speaker 1: the sixth new face that will be at ten Downing
- 0:54Speaker 1: Street in only seven years. It sounds like I got
- 0:56Speaker 1: a little bit of turmoil going on over there. Kurt,
- 0:58Speaker 1: you want to break this down for lit audience.
- 1:01Speaker 2: Yeah, you're completely right, Brian.
- 1:02Speaker 3: It's been almost like Italian level standards, the political turnoup.
- 1:07Speaker 2: I read that. Yeah, that's not a compliment either, exactly exactly.
- 1:12Speaker 3: I think it's really been a failure of the political
- 1:17Speaker 3: class in Britain to represent the Brexit vote. We're exactly
- 1:21Speaker 3: ten years ago the people of Britain voted to leave
- 1:24Speaker 3: the European Union, and none of the prime ministers since
- 1:27Speaker 3: have really believed in that project, and I think that
- 1:31Speaker 3: the failure of any of them to survive is a
- 1:34Speaker 3: testament to that fact.
- 1:36Speaker 1: Well, I understand and correct me if I'm wrong. But
- 1:38Speaker 1: one of the reasons for the getting out and embracing
- 1:42Speaker 1: Brexit is immigration has been a real problem. We've had
- 1:46Speaker 1: the same situation gone on here in the United States.
- 1:48Speaker 1: I'm telling you something you already know, I'm sure, Kurt,
- 1:50Speaker 1: but we see it the populace, the Brits, the citizens
- 1:56Speaker 1: of the United Kingdom are overwhelmed with the unchecked flow
- 2:00Speaker 1: or unchecked regular flow of illegal immigrants coming in the country.
- 2:04Speaker 1: If that was the reason for Brexit, and Britain did
- 2:06Speaker 1: vote to get out of it, how come nobody listen
- 2:09Speaker 1: to the main motivation of the primary motivation.
- 2:13Speaker 2: Yeah, that's one of the big questions.
- 2:14Speaker 3: I mean, obviously, even before Starmer, we had Boris Johnson
- 2:18Speaker 3: who got in there promising to take back control and
- 2:20Speaker 3: he actually flooded the country with the record levels of immigration.
- 2:25Speaker 2: There's some questions.
- 2:26Speaker 3: About maybe he did that during COVID to sort of
- 2:30Speaker 3: jiggle the GDP numbers a bit there, just try to
- 2:34Speaker 3: save his neck, but it ultimately didn't work and he
- 2:37Speaker 3: got kicked out. And look, Starmer has been more of
- 2:40Speaker 3: the same. Starmer came in promising to fix the border
- 2:42Speaker 3: issues and he's overseen the most illegal immigration across the
- 2:47Speaker 3: English Channel out of any prime minister in history.
- 2:49Speaker 2: So it's been a complete failure.
- 2:51Speaker 1: Well, I guess maybe it's a simple question for me
- 2:54Speaker 1: to ask this, but has anybody pressed him on why
- 2:57Speaker 1: he did the polar opposite of what he ran on
- 2:59Speaker 1: and Campaig aimed on. If this is what BRIT's demand,
- 3:02Speaker 1: how come he didn't deliver. I mean, it's one thing
- 3:04Speaker 1: to maybe not successfully crack down because of impediments legal
- 3:08Speaker 1: or otherwise, but to actually embrace this unchecked immigration is
- 3:13Speaker 1: it runs, It's lies directly in the face of what
- 3:15Speaker 1: he said. So has anybody sat him down and said, listen, man,
- 3:18Speaker 1: why did you go that route?
- 3:21Speaker 3: Well, look, I think the British public did essentially. So
- 3:24Speaker 3: last month there were local elections across the UK and
- 3:28Speaker 3: the circuit Starmer's party lost a historic number of local
- 3:32Speaker 3: council seats and these were a particular areas of the
- 3:35Speaker 3: country that voted for Brexit, so the North of England,
- 3:39Speaker 3: places in Wales. These are traditionally like working class areas
- 3:44Speaker 3: of the country, industrial heartlands that have been voting for
- 3:47Speaker 3: the left wing Labor Party because they used to represent
- 3:50Speaker 3: the working labor population. But the reality is that Starmer's
- 3:54Speaker 3: Labor Party is not the Labor Party of old they do.
- 3:58Speaker 3: They are much more like the Democrats these days, where
- 4:01Speaker 3: they are much more focused on urban voters, college educated
- 4:05Speaker 3: voters and immigrants as their main constituencies and they have
- 4:10Speaker 3: really forgot the working man and women of Britain and
- 4:13Speaker 3: I think that's why the British public overwhelmingly voted against
- 4:17Speaker 3: his party last month and ultimately forced him out.
- 4:20Speaker 1: Now, well, my understanding is now Foraj's Reform UK Party
- 4:25Speaker 1: is the emerging party and since the Tories and Labor
- 4:30Speaker 1: have led the entire country. I guess since World War One,
- 4:33Speaker 1: the idea that reform UK has made such inroads. That's
- 4:37Speaker 1: what led to Starmer stepping down. He lost the direction
- 4:42Speaker 1: in the will of his own people completely.
- 4:44Speaker 3: And look, so Fag's party was the big winner at
- 4:47Speaker 3: last month's elections. They have been leading in the polls
- 4:50Speaker 3: over the past year, in every single poll, and I
- 4:54Speaker 3: think that just goes to show how unpopular the Labor
- 4:57Speaker 3: Party was. They were never actually voted in affirmati least,
- 5:00Speaker 3: no one actually voted for Starmer thinking he was an
- 5:03Speaker 3: exciting politician. They just voted for him because the Tories
- 5:06Speaker 3: were so bad before him. So I think really for
- 5:09Speaker 3: Brexit to finally be fulfilled in a true fashion, you
- 5:13Speaker 3: need the guy who led Brexit to finally get in there.
- 5:16Speaker 3: And so Frag's Party, I think, is in the driver's
- 5:19Speaker 3: seat right now. The Labor Party is going to try
- 5:22Speaker 3: to cling on. They're going to replace Starmer with the
- 5:25Speaker 3: Manchester mayor, Andy Burnham. But I have serious doubts how
- 5:29Speaker 3: long he'll be able to last. I'm not sure he'll
- 5:31Speaker 3: be able to last another two years. I think there's
- 5:34Speaker 3: probably going to be an early election, and if so,
- 5:37Speaker 3: Nigel frag is probably in the driver's seat.
- 5:39Speaker 1: Well that's actually pretty amazing thing because I have read
- 5:43Speaker 1: in multiple different places, most recently the Wall Street Journal
- 5:46Speaker 1: this morning, he has got the lowest favorability rating on
- 5:49Speaker 1: pretty much any politician Forage does, and yet he may
- 5:52Speaker 1: very well be the text prime minister. What of this
- 5:55Speaker 1: Manchester mayor Andy Burman guy you just mentioned. Is he
- 6:00Speaker 1: the left wing socialist, open borders kind of guy that
- 6:02Speaker 1: i'd presume he is?
- 6:05Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, really, what Burnham is is sort of
- 6:09Speaker 3: a classic like Westminster swamp creature, insider, veteran Labor Party guy.
- 6:15Speaker 2: He was, he was, he was.
- 6:16Speaker 3: He came into politics under Tony Blair in the early
- 6:19Speaker 3: two thousands, he served under the Gordon Brown administration. And
- 6:23Speaker 3: really he's a political chameleon. He'll say whatever it takes
- 6:26Speaker 3: to get elected. In my opinion, he's positioning himself as
- 6:30Speaker 3: slightly to the left of Starmer, but not all full
- 6:33Speaker 3: comedy like Jeremy Gorbyn if you remember him. So he's
- 6:37Speaker 3: trying to be slightly more to the left a Starmer,
- 6:40Speaker 3: and really he's just boxed in. His party won't allow
- 6:43Speaker 3: him to do anything that will actually save the country.
- 6:46Speaker 2: So because they don't.
- 6:47Speaker 3: They don't want him to stop immigration, they don't want
- 6:49Speaker 3: him to lower taxes his base, So he's he's kind
- 6:52Speaker 3: of boxed in and there's there's really no hope for him.
- 6:56Speaker 3: He's really just starmer with brown hair and maybe a
- 6:59Speaker 3: better pair of glasses.
- 7:00Speaker 1: Do you have voting issues with the immigrant population? I mean,
- 7:03Speaker 1: this has been a big challenge here in the United States.
- 7:06Speaker 1: We have this Save Act that's being contemplated, which would
- 7:08Speaker 1: require mandatory verification you are, in fact a citizen of
- 7:12Speaker 1: the United States to vote in federal elections, which is
- 7:14Speaker 1: the law here in the United States. Some people are
- 7:16Speaker 1: against that for seemingly obvious reasons. But in the UK
- 7:21Speaker 1: can immigrants that recently arrive there? Are they able to
- 7:24Speaker 1: vote in elections? Because I guess I'm kind of wondering
- 7:26Speaker 1: what benefit any politician gets from embracing this problematic community,
- 7:32Speaker 1: given I suppose that in the UK they tax social
- 7:35Speaker 1: welfare services and increase housing costs and all the same
- 7:38Speaker 1: problems we're experiencing here. So what possible benefit can it
- 7:41Speaker 1: be to embrace that and run on a platform that says, yeah,
- 7:45Speaker 1: we love the immigrant population and we don't care about
- 7:48Speaker 1: unchecked on regulated immigration.
- 7:51Speaker 3: Well, look, it's a long term play by both the
- 7:53Speaker 3: Democrats and the left in Britain and other.
- 7:56Speaker 2: Countries across Europe.
- 7:57Speaker 3: They know that Look, once, once large swats of immigrants
- 8:02Speaker 3: come in, it's very hard to remove them. And they
- 8:04Speaker 3: have children, and they have children at a faster rate
- 8:07Speaker 3: than the native population. And so this is a growing
- 8:10Speaker 3: demographic block in Britain. It has been radically transformed over
- 8:14Speaker 3: the past twenty years or so, now that it's almost
- 8:19Speaker 3: nearly one in five or immigrants, and it's gonna There
- 8:22Speaker 3: are projections that by twenty sixty three the white British
- 8:26Speaker 3: population could be a minority in their own country. So
- 8:29Speaker 3: this is a long term play by the left in general,
- 8:32Speaker 3: I think. But as far as like interesting voting irregularity
- 8:37Speaker 3: is one of the things. There was an interesting special
- 8:40Speaker 3: election earlier this year up near Manchester again and what
- 8:45Speaker 3: some independent observers found was this problem called family voting,
- 8:50Speaker 3: where an older man is going into the voting box
- 8:54Speaker 3: with either his wife or daughter and basically telling them
- 8:59Speaker 3: which to select, And of course we all know which
- 9:02Speaker 3: box are selecting. They're going for the left wing parties.
- 9:06Speaker 1: And I'm just thinking a lot of voters experiencing who
- 9:11Speaker 1: you're going to vote for, and whoever that you know,
- 9:12Speaker 1: the family member says are going to vote for, they
- 9:14Speaker 1: go and vote for that person anyway they've done with
- 9:16Speaker 1: the confines of their own home. So it's a problem
- 9:18Speaker 1: if you take the family members to the voting booth
- 9:20Speaker 1: with you.
- 9:20Speaker 3: I guess, look, this is this is mostly an issue
- 9:24Speaker 3: of in Islamic families where the father is basically saying
- 9:29Speaker 3: you don't have any say over who you get to
- 9:31Speaker 3: vote if you're.
- 9:32Speaker 2: A female member of the family, right.
- 9:34Speaker 1: I see, I get your point on that. So beyond
- 9:37Speaker 1: cracking I use the term cracking down on immigration. What
- 9:41Speaker 1: else is Reformed UK all about? From a political perspective,
- 9:44Speaker 1: I presume you also have inflationary economic issues, employment issues,
- 9:48Speaker 1: and kind of curious where Nigel Farage's party is on
- 9:52Speaker 1: those issues that are important.
- 9:54Speaker 3: Yeah, so I think I think Frage has sort of
- 9:57Speaker 3: taken a page out of Trump's book. That for sure,
- 10:00Speaker 3: they're both long term allies. And I think one of
- 10:04Speaker 3: the principal objectives of the Reform Party besides immigration, is
- 10:09Speaker 3: going to be energy, and energy is sort of critical
- 10:13Speaker 3: to everything that is that economic right, and Britain has
- 10:17Speaker 3: just been completely hampered by their energy policies over the
- 10:20Speaker 3: past twenty thirty years. Both the conserv so called Conservative
- 10:23Speaker 3: Party which are really Democrats from the nineties, and the
- 10:26Speaker 3: left wing Labor Party have both been committed to the
- 10:28Speaker 3: green Agenda net zero by twenty fifty.
- 10:33Speaker 2: And what that has done.
- 10:34Speaker 3: They've banned fracking completely, even though they have large gas
- 10:38Speaker 3: fields in the middle of the country. The Labor Party
- 10:41Speaker 3: is shut off new licensing in the North Sea where
- 10:44Speaker 3: there's a lot of a lot of oil and gas.
- 10:46Speaker 3: That's where Norway gets a lot of their oil and gas,
- 10:49Speaker 3: and they're one of the wealthiest per capita countries in
- 10:52Speaker 3: the world. But Britain has decided they go all in
- 10:55Speaker 3: on green energy and it's they have some of the
- 10:58Speaker 3: highest energy prices in the world as a result. And
- 11:02Speaker 3: so I think that's one of the main pushes of
- 11:04Speaker 3: the Reform Party is saying, hey, let's get let's get
- 11:06Speaker 3: immigration under control, but also let's get our energy prices
- 11:09Speaker 3: under control. So it actually makes sense to do business
- 11:12Speaker 3: in Britain again.
- 11:14Speaker 1: Well, and I don't know if you've gotten the memo
- 11:16Speaker 1: in the UK yet, but a lot of people are
- 11:18Speaker 1: backing off on this whole idea that carbon dioxide is
- 11:21Speaker 1: actually bad, considering that it's plant food and plants do
- 11:24Speaker 1: enjoy the benefits of carbon dioxide. Trying to eliminate carbon
- 11:27Speaker 1: dioxide is just a nonsensical proposition anyway. But that if
- 11:32Speaker 1: the UK continues down this net zero path, see what
- 11:35Speaker 1: happened to Germany didn't work out real well for them
- 11:38Speaker 1: so far. But meanwhile, all the other major industrial second
- 11:42Speaker 1: world countries of the world, China, India, everybody else is
- 11:45Speaker 1: belching out gazillions of tons of carbon dioxide, negating any
- 11:49Speaker 1: effort that you might engage into to remove it from
- 11:51Speaker 1: the atmosphere. It is a pointless gesture. Hasn't that concept
- 11:56Speaker 1: gotten out into the general public. We need to quit
- 11:58Speaker 1: chasing our tails and try to eliminate carbon dioxide.
- 12:01Speaker 3: Kurt, I completely agree with you, and I mean it's
- 12:05Speaker 3: it's such a funny thing for Britain, of all places,
- 12:08Speaker 3: to be doing it. They're responsible for less than one
- 12:10Speaker 3: percent of carbon emitials globally if they if they stop that,
- 12:14Speaker 3: what impact does it have on anybody?
- 12:16Speaker 2: Anyway?
- 12:17Speaker 3: The Chinese are going to stump their coal that the
- 12:19Speaker 3: Indians are going to build their new plants and Britain
- 12:22Speaker 3: is just going to become poor. And that's really a
- 12:25Speaker 3: lot of this project, in my opinion, has been to
- 12:29Speaker 3: impoverish Western economies. I don't think it's anything about any
- 12:33Speaker 3: sort of green altruism. It's about making countries in Europe
- 12:38Speaker 3: and in the West poor.
- 12:39Speaker 1: No question about it. I've been of that mindset for
- 12:42Speaker 1: a long time, Kurt, And I guess maybe the reason
- 12:45Speaker 1: Nigel Faraj's Reformed UK Party is growing in size and
- 12:49Speaker 1: strength is because of that. People are smarter than our
- 12:53Speaker 1: lords and masters give us credit for, Kurt. They realize
- 12:56Speaker 1: the jig is up. This is nothing more than an
- 12:59Speaker 1: effort to un your mind Western capitalism.
- 13:02Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly.
- 13:03Speaker 3: And look, the two biggest issues I think YouGov did
- 13:06Speaker 3: a poll today in in the UK are are the
- 13:09Speaker 3: economy and immigration, and they're almost neck and neck. And
- 13:13Speaker 3: look they're they're obviously tied together. But I think, look,
- 13:16Speaker 3: the people are sick of of of the economic mismanagement
- 13:20Speaker 3: that they've been living under, especially in Britain. They've been
- 13:23Speaker 3: living under the highest taxes since World War Two for
- 13:26Speaker 3: several years now, and this is they are not recovering
- 13:30Speaker 3: from any major war. They are just doing this to
- 13:32Speaker 3: fund their their major welfare schemes, a lot of which
- 13:36Speaker 3: is going directly into foreigners as soon as they get
- 13:39Speaker 3: off a boat into onto the English coastline. And look,
- 13:44Speaker 3: I think a lot of people are fed up with it,
- 13:45Speaker 3: and I think there's that's That's one of the hopeful
- 13:49Speaker 3: things about this story today, as far as like Starmer
- 13:51Speaker 3: getting forced out and uh, looking like there's gonna be
- 13:55Speaker 3: a possible reform government in the in the coming future,
- 13:58Speaker 3: is that I think there is real possibility for change.
- 14:01Speaker 3: I think the same thing could be said in France.
- 14:03Speaker 3: I think the National Rally has a good chance there.
- 14:05Speaker 3: I think we are going to see change. It just
- 14:07Speaker 3: takes a little while in Europe, but I think they're
- 14:09Speaker 3: going to get there.
- 14:10Speaker 1: And speaking of taking a little while, sort of a
- 14:12Speaker 1: moving target as to when Kirs Starmer will actually leave
- 14:15Speaker 1: the post and there will be an election, any idea
- 14:17Speaker 1: Kurtwin that might take place.
- 14:19Speaker 3: Yeah, it's sort of up in the air right now.
- 14:21Speaker 3: We're going to have to wait and see if anybody
- 14:23Speaker 3: has the guts to actually challenge Burnham for a leadership
- 14:27Speaker 3: contest or whether he's just going to be coronated. So
- 14:30Speaker 3: I've heard as early as mid July Burnham could be installed,
- 14:35Speaker 3: or it could be at the beginning of September. It's
- 14:37Speaker 3: really going to depend on if anybody else jumps into
- 14:40Speaker 3: the race.
- 14:41Speaker 1: Well and at what point, At what point will Nigel
- 14:43Speaker 1: Farage get a shot.
- 14:46Speaker 3: Well, he's calling for a snap election right now. He's
- 14:48Speaker 3: saying Andy Burnham doesn't have any election mandate. Burnham just
- 14:52Speaker 3: won this special election up in Manchester with twenty five
- 14:55Speaker 3: thousand votes and that's all the votes he's using to
- 14:58Speaker 3: become Prime Minister. Doesn't really have much of a mandate.
- 15:02Speaker 3: Frogs calling for an election. I don't think Burnham is
- 15:05Speaker 3: gonna go for it. He's gonna try to cling on
- 15:07Speaker 3: as long as he can. But I'd imagine over the
- 15:10Speaker 3: next year sometime Burnham is going to be forced into
- 15:13Speaker 3: doing it, because I think he's gonna have to run
- 15:16Speaker 3: into the same problems as Starmer did.
- 15:18Speaker 2: So i'd predict over.
- 15:19Speaker 3: The next year we see an election in the UK.
- 15:22Speaker 1: You heard it from bright bart News London debuty editor
- 15:25Speaker 1: Curt and Zandalka. Kurt a pleasure and I appreciate you
- 15:28Speaker 1: breaking it down for us since I would imagine most
- 15:31Speaker 1: like me are not overly familiar with what's going on there,
- 15:33Speaker 1: But so many parallels can be drawn with British politics
- 15:36Speaker 1: and American politics these days, and it's great that you
- 15:38Speaker 1: came on the show to talk about that. We'll keep
- 15:40Speaker 1: our fingers crossed for I guess Nigel Faraj and maybe
- 15:43Speaker 1: some change coming to Britain and you and I'll talk
- 15:46Speaker 1: hopefully between now and when that day comes. Looking forward
- 15:49Speaker 1: to it. Thanks Ron, Thank you Kurt. It is eight
- 15:52Speaker 1: twenty one right now. If you I've care se de
