- 0:06Speaker 1: Hello.
- 0:06Speaker 2: I'm Charles Mallett and I have with me today David
- 0:09Speaker 2: Clues of Unity News Network.
- 0:12Speaker 1: David, thanks very much for joining me. Welcome to UK. Colin.
- 0:15Speaker 2: Now, you've been under a sort of sustained attack from
- 0:20Speaker 2: mainstream media for some time now, and this goes back
- 0:23Speaker 2: to the violence that started in the wake really of
- 0:27Speaker 2: the Southport killings recently. Will you just describe, I suppose
- 0:33Speaker 2: chronologically perhaps what exactly happened and why you think it did.
- 0:38Speaker 3: Happen in terms of to me.
- 0:43Speaker 1: Well, no, yes, so sorry, good question. No, I think
- 0:47Speaker 1: well I.
- 0:47Speaker 4: Can actually start whether and then well I'll weave myself
- 0:51Speaker 4: into it. So geez, everything's up learn No, Charles, that
- 0:54Speaker 4: would have been two weeks last Monday, if that's if
- 0:58Speaker 4: my thinking's correct on it. So today is Saturday, saw
- 1:03Speaker 4: Monday of this week. It was two weeks before that
- 1:07Speaker 4: you had the incident or the incident, the horrific murders
- 1:10Speaker 4: that took place in Southport, three young girls brutally butchered.
- 1:18Speaker 4: What you then had was on the Tuesday Starmer went
- 1:22Speaker 4: up to Southport and he got heckled. You could clearly
- 1:26Speaker 4: see there was a lot of anger. You could see
- 1:29Speaker 4: that things were changing. And again this is on the
- 1:33Speaker 4: back of more big events. You had the hair Hills riots,
- 1:37Speaker 4: you had the Manchester Airport incident as well. Like this
- 1:42Speaker 4: didn't all just happen in a vacuum. There had been
- 1:45Speaker 4: a number of factors that had been building up to this,
- 1:49Speaker 4: and of course decades of perception of the media lying,
- 1:53Speaker 4: of the government lying. And then on the Wednesday night,
- 1:57Speaker 4: basically the whole thing erupted. And what happened was people
- 2:02Speaker 4: in Southport went to a local mosque. Now what I
- 2:07Speaker 4: had said on the show, and again it's all documented.
- 2:10Speaker 4: I said, well, why why are people out protesting outside
- 2:13Speaker 4: a mosque? I said, what's happened is a name has
- 2:17Speaker 4: been put out and I don't need to repeat the name,
- 2:20Speaker 4: but I said, clearly this name is false, and clearly
- 2:24Speaker 4: this has been put out to serve a specific purpose,
- 2:28Speaker 4: which was, you know, to antagg and I was already
- 2:33Speaker 4: you know, fraught relations with with with with the with
- 2:37Speaker 4: the Muslim community in Britain. And that's that's what I
- 2:43Speaker 4: said at the time that this guy was named, and
- 2:48Speaker 4: I thought it was wrong and I didn't think that
- 2:50Speaker 4: was him. That wasn't the information I had heard, so
- 2:52Speaker 4: any that was the Wednesday, and then it really all
- 2:54Speaker 4: started kicking off.
- 2:55Speaker 3: On the Friday.
- 2:57Speaker 4: I did a show and I had a guest on
- 2:59Speaker 4: Mark call it and we both said that we wouldn't
- 3:03Speaker 4: advise anybody to go out on the Saturday, that the
- 3:07Speaker 4: police will be out, the police will be looking to
- 3:10Speaker 4: provoke you, far left agitators will be out looking to
- 3:13Speaker 4: provoke you, and that you should stay at home.
- 3:17Speaker 3: And that was on the Saturday. And then obviously that.
- 3:20Speaker 4: It kept rumbling on for a few more days and
- 3:23Speaker 4: I was doing shows, I was covering what was going
- 3:25Speaker 4: on at night. And then on the Wednesday of last week,
- 3:28Speaker 4: you had the big list of names that went out
- 3:31Speaker 4: of the huge protests that were going to take place,
- 3:36Speaker 4: which turns out.
- 3:37Speaker 3: Was a hoax.
- 3:38Speaker 4: Nick Lows of Hope not he said it was a
- 3:41Speaker 4: hoax that that was put out that information. The left
- 3:45Speaker 4: or the establishment then mobilized the Socialist Workers Party, et cetera,
- 3:51Speaker 4: and they went out numbers. And then really since that Wednesday,
- 3:54Speaker 4: there's not been anything.
- 3:56Speaker 3: It's all abated.
- 3:58Speaker 4: Then you've had the know, the plethora of cases against
- 4:02Speaker 4: people and the attacks, and then I have found myself,
- 4:07Speaker 4: you know, caught up in this world when that I
- 4:11Speaker 4: fan the flames of the riots, and that I was
- 4:14Speaker 4: responsible because I named the individual, when I clearly named
- 4:20Speaker 4: the individual in the context of it, of the individual
- 4:24Speaker 4: not being responsible, I mean again like that. Let me
- 4:27Speaker 4: give you an example of this. This is like a
- 4:29Speaker 4: newsreader talking about a murder case and he said the
- 4:35Speaker 4: lady's husband said the reason he beat her to death
- 4:39Speaker 4: was she was because she deserved it. That's like the
- 4:42Speaker 4: press then saying reporting the next day newscaster says women
- 4:46Speaker 4: beat to death because she deserved it, like he.
- 4:51Speaker 3: Was quoting what.
- 4:54Speaker 4: So what what has happened is the state of the
- 4:57Speaker 4: British regime, who obviously don't like me, They don't like
- 5:00Speaker 4: what we do at n they don't like the work
- 5:02Speaker 4: I've been doing, the people that they say I associate with,
- 5:05Speaker 4: the people that I say I work with, and they've
- 5:08Speaker 4: used this as an opportunity in the confusion because there
- 5:11Speaker 4: is a fog of war to drag me into this
- 5:17Speaker 4: and this this is this is very nefarious and it's
- 5:22Speaker 4: it's very wrong. And as I say to everyone, is
- 5:25Speaker 4: this could happen to anybody. The next type anything like
- 5:28Speaker 4: this happens, and you look at what they've done over
- 5:31Speaker 4: the last few years, and specifically in relations will turn
- 5:34Speaker 4: to media Richard D. Hall and the way that they've
- 5:38Speaker 4: they've gone after him, They've they are they're systematically going
- 5:42Speaker 4: after everyone. Charles and UK Colum will be next, Iconic
- 5:47Speaker 4: will be after that everyone. And unless you're a card
- 5:50Speaker 4: carrying member of the National Union of Journalists, unless you're
- 5:54Speaker 4: fully approved and fully vetted by Offcom, they will not
- 5:58Speaker 4: let alternative media broadcast.
- 6:00Speaker 3: If we keep going at the street.
- 6:02Speaker 1: I think this is it.
- 6:03Speaker 2: This is you know, absolutely the critical issue is that
- 6:06Speaker 2: we have to consider this. I mean, obviously the circumstances
- 6:10Speaker 2: that you have had unfold before you are terrible, unfounded,
- 6:14Speaker 2: and all the rest of it obviously very purposeful. But
- 6:18Speaker 2: exactly as you say, it could happen to anyone. And
- 6:20Speaker 2: actually what we've seen very much is that it doesn't
- 6:24Speaker 2: to be caught up in it or captured by this.
- 6:27Speaker 2: You don't in fact need to be saying things in
- 6:30Speaker 2: the public domain from a sort of journalistic point of view.
- 6:34Speaker 2: I mean, we've seen many people simply commentating on social
- 6:38Speaker 2: media with no necessarily sort of journalistic background. So as
- 6:42Speaker 2: you say, anybody could be a target, and I think
- 6:44Speaker 2: that's the point that we want to get out here.
- 6:48Speaker 2: What do you see as being the sort of the
- 6:51Speaker 2: end state for the media that are pushing this, for
- 6:55Speaker 2: the state that appear to be controlling the media in
- 6:58Speaker 2: pushing this. Where do you think they want to take
- 7:01Speaker 2: this with regard to censorship in particular.
- 7:05Speaker 4: Well, I mean, in an ideal world, they would shut
- 7:07Speaker 4: down social media entirely and you would just be stuck
- 7:11Speaker 4: at home watching the BBC or ITV or Sky and
- 7:14Speaker 4: you'd be watching their approved titles. They simply do not
- 7:19Speaker 4: want people having alternative sources of information because if they do,
- 7:23Speaker 4: people can then expose their scams and they can expose
- 7:26Speaker 4: their lives. And we all have a track record over COVID,
- 7:30Speaker 4: we have a track record over the war in Ukraine,
- 7:33Speaker 4: We've got a track record over the conflict in Israeli Gaza.
- 7:37Speaker 3: And they clearly.
- 7:39Speaker 4: Don't like us because we provided nuanced and balanced view.
- 7:45Speaker 4: It's like they say they're conspiracy theorist, they're brainwashed. They say,
- 7:54Speaker 4: we're the ones that actually have a proper look at
- 7:57Speaker 4: the situation and try and say look, in every conflict,
- 8:01Speaker 4: there's one side, there's another side, and there's other people
- 8:04Speaker 4: and this is some of the and they just they
- 8:06Speaker 4: hate that because we're fundamentally doing and a UK column
- 8:11Speaker 4: what the mainstream media used to do fifteen twenty years ago.
- 8:16Speaker 4: And I often talk about this, like you watched the
- 8:19Speaker 4: media from twenty years ago. People like Tommy Robinson, Paul Golding,
- 8:24Speaker 4: whatever you think of them, used to get on Newsnight.
- 8:27Speaker 4: They used to get on Piers Morgan. They was Paul
- 8:30Speaker 4: Golding was on the Andrew Neale Show. You imagine the
- 8:33Speaker 4: furor if someone who was even considered mildly far right
- 8:37Speaker 4: was allowed on a daytime TV show. The melt that
- 8:40Speaker 4: the conversation has moved so that anybody who is basically
- 8:44Speaker 4: not in that And I use these terms because they're simplistic,
- 8:50Speaker 4: the center left, metropolitan elite bubble, you're not allowed a voice,
- 8:55Speaker 4: and it primarily extends to those on the right, but
- 8:59Speaker 4: also extends to those on the left as well, as
- 9:02Speaker 4: you saw with the attacks on Jeremy Corbyn, with the
- 9:06Speaker 4: with the attacks on certain aspects of the left and
- 9:08Speaker 4: the Labor Party. But they are still a bit of
- 9:11Speaker 4: a protected category, whereas it's open season on us.
- 9:16Speaker 1: It does, it does absolutely look that way.
- 9:17Speaker 2: It is interesting because I do you know, I would
- 9:20Speaker 2: agree with you that on the face of it, it
- 9:22Speaker 2: seems that to wipe out social media, to get rid
- 9:26Speaker 2: of the the you know, the what's become a different
- 9:30Speaker 2: tier of media. Like you say, people who are reporting
- 9:34Speaker 2: like you are at unn like Yuk colum Art to
- 9:37Speaker 2: to unpick what is actually happening and the rest of it.
- 9:42Speaker 2: But but you see, of course, in being able to
- 9:45Speaker 2: demonize you, for example, and throw a millstone around your neck,
- 9:54Speaker 2: what the press are able to do is hold up
- 9:57Speaker 2: these people as exemplar to keep the population in check.
- 10:03Speaker 2: And of course, so one thing that I think is
- 10:06Speaker 2: very significant in this is the way that the Online
- 10:09Speaker 2: Safety Act in particular is taking effect. And we see
- 10:13Speaker 2: that section one seventy nine and section one eighty which
- 10:17Speaker 2: are particularly putting out the section one sevent nine being
- 10:21Speaker 2: to put out content that you know is false and
- 10:25Speaker 2: in effect, this is sort of you know, trial by media.
- 10:27Speaker 2: This is what the menstream media is sort of suggesting
- 10:31Speaker 2: that you've done, as you say, totally failing to pick
- 10:34Speaker 2: up on the as I say.
- 10:36Speaker 4: Like, if I'm not sure, if it's something I would
- 10:38Speaker 4: always caveat that and say, look, I don't know, I said,
- 10:42Speaker 4: I do caveat.
- 10:46Speaker 3: Because I'm honest with my followers.
- 10:47Speaker 4: And the thing is, again, Charles, I've had loads of
- 10:49Speaker 4: people email me and they say, I don't recognize who
- 10:52Speaker 4: this person is that the media are talking about. They say,
- 10:56Speaker 4: I've been watching you for years and we don't recogn
- 11:00Speaker 4: don't know this who is this person they're making you
- 11:02Speaker 4: out to be. I if I don't know the answer
- 11:04Speaker 4: to something like take take the Lucy let Be trial, Charles.
- 11:08Speaker 4: That's now coming out, and I know the UK column
- 11:10Speaker 4: was on this, I was, I am still doubtful about
- 11:16Speaker 4: Lucy let Bee. I have my issues and people at
- 11:19Speaker 4: the time, my audience was crucifying me because I was.
- 11:22Speaker 3: Actually saying that.
- 11:23Speaker 4: I said, I'm a bit skeptical of her. But what
- 11:26Speaker 4: I did say was, look, there is clearly trial by
- 11:28Speaker 4: media with Lucy let Be. There is clearly discrepancies in
- 11:32Speaker 4: the case that has been put forward by the CPS,
- 11:35Speaker 4: and from what I understand, it looked like the only
- 11:38Speaker 4: option available that was the right one was a retrial.
- 11:41Speaker 4: Whereas they the media hangar, you know, flogger this guilt
- 11:45Speaker 4: look at which remember the headlines, and they they accuse
- 11:51Speaker 4: you of everything that they are Whereas what I said
- 11:54Speaker 4: was I I and as I said, I am not
- 11:58Speaker 4: part of the I Lucy let Bey is innocent, and
- 12:02Speaker 4: that annoys a lot of my followers. I mean, I
- 12:04Speaker 4: think there is a chance that she is innocent. But
- 12:08Speaker 4: that is another one that's really going to go blow
- 12:10Speaker 4: up in the face of the CPS and the mainstream media,
- 12:12Speaker 4: because the mainstream media crucified Lucy let Be as did
- 12:17Speaker 4: the CPS, and if they've admitted there was flaws in
- 12:19Speaker 4: the evidence against her. And the problem we have, Charles,
- 12:26Speaker 4: is we are now dealing with people who are amateurish
- 12:31Speaker 4: and exceptionally unintelligent.
- 12:34Speaker 3: They don't see the bigger picture.
- 12:36Speaker 4: And as I've said, the Home Office, the whole office
- 12:40Speaker 4: that put up a graphic they said a thousand people
- 12:43Speaker 4: have been arrested. They put in their comments these criminals, etc.
- 12:48Speaker 3: Etc.
- 12:49Speaker 4: You are innocent until prove and guilty. These people are
- 12:54Speaker 4: not criminals. You're only a criminals if you admit your
- 12:58Speaker 4: guilt in a court, which sadly of people are doing
- 13:01Speaker 4: under severe dress and pressure, or a jury or or
- 13:04Speaker 4: a judge finds you guilty. Yet they were labeling people
- 13:08Speaker 4: arrested as criminals, which is maybe hundreds of years of
- 13:13Speaker 4: legal tradition thrown out, and likewise, the separation between the press,
- 13:18Speaker 4: the separation between the state and the judiciary, these checks
- 13:22Speaker 4: and balances that are there for a reason have all
- 13:25Speaker 4: been eroded basically since March twenty twenty. But it's accelerating now.
- 13:31Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 13:32Speaker 2: I mean, and I think to you know, the analogy
- 13:34Speaker 2: with with the Lucy letpak so, I think is a
- 13:36Speaker 2: very good point to make because there's and it totally
- 13:39Speaker 2: does exactly what E's saingly, which is a failure to
- 13:41Speaker 2: address any sort of nuance to say, to say that
- 13:45Speaker 2: the conviction might not be safe is not to say
- 13:47Speaker 2: that she's innocent, and yet people can't understand that. And
- 13:51Speaker 2: in the same way, you know what we've just talked
- 13:53Speaker 2: about that with the online safetye for example, for a
- 13:55Speaker 2: mainstream publication to put out something that they now to
- 13:58Speaker 2: be false with the intent of cause harm, they may
- 14:01Speaker 2: not be liable for committing an offense because Section eighty
- 14:05Speaker 2: specifically exists them from it.
- 14:08Speaker 4: They are not held to the same rules and standards
- 14:11Speaker 4: that we are. It's this two tier system that exists
- 14:16Speaker 4: basically everywhere. It is clearly one rule for them. And
- 14:20Speaker 4: then again, the other example is look at the media
- 14:23Speaker 4: the way they behave around wars.
- 14:25Speaker 3: They push what look like putin.
- 14:27Speaker 4: The madman, the this lunatic has lost his mind, et cetera.
- 14:31Speaker 4: You and I we we were clearly pointing out that
- 14:35Speaker 4: this has been an once since you know what, the
- 14:38Speaker 4: nineteen thirties, and then follow the Soviet Union, then the
- 14:43Speaker 4: twenty fourteen my Dan Revolution, the ongoing content any of
- 14:49Speaker 4: us putin apologists and you know, we're just saying there's
- 14:54Speaker 4: a bit of nuanced here and it's not black and white.
- 14:58Speaker 4: And the thing, as you say, they're allowed to push
- 15:01Speaker 4: that information that then leads people to.
- 15:03Speaker 3: To extreme war and is frightening.
- 15:09Speaker 1: It is, It absolutely is.
- 15:11Speaker 2: And I think the other aspect to it, specifically where
- 15:13Speaker 2: the media concerned, I mean it's very similar with the state,
- 15:16Speaker 2: is the feeling that there's really no recourse. You know,
- 15:18Speaker 2: you've now had a number of mainstream publications put out
- 15:22Speaker 2: information about you that either should not have been put
- 15:25Speaker 2: in the public domain or I think I'm right saying
- 15:27Speaker 2: it is wholly inaccurate.
- 15:29Speaker 1: But yeah, do you feel like you have any way
- 15:32Speaker 1: well deal with that?
- 15:34Speaker 4: I think I think there is a number of places.
- 15:37Speaker 4: I think I think they even even for their lives.
- 15:40Speaker 4: They crossed the line naming a family member specifying the
- 15:44Speaker 4: age of my child online. I've actually got two children,
- 15:49Speaker 4: but I won't give the other age. But to do
- 15:52Speaker 4: that was was was a breach even for them. It's
- 15:55Speaker 4: a clear breach of EPISOD codes, clear breach of right
- 15:59Speaker 4: to privacy and writes Act to ninety eight Data Protection
- 16:01Speaker 4: at twenty eighteen.
- 16:03Speaker 3: So I think there is some legal recourse.
- 16:05Speaker 4: I'm also looking into it as well as I say, Look,
- 16:08Speaker 4: the media can say what they want about me, they
- 16:11Speaker 4: can lie about me. I'm a very opinionated person and
- 16:15Speaker 4: that is what it is. But what they are actually
- 16:18Speaker 4: doing is misrepresenting my words to try and criminalize what
- 16:24Speaker 4: I have done, which is again is a step in the director.
- 16:27Speaker 4: It is a step in a completely different direction because
- 16:31Speaker 4: I have not engaged in any criminality here. Yet they
- 16:34Speaker 4: are alluding to me engaging in criminality. And that's where
- 16:40Speaker 4: when we get into the cases of what's happened to
- 16:42Speaker 4: people who are currently being jailed being put away for
- 16:45Speaker 4: tweets for social media posts which look are quite spicy.
- 16:49Speaker 4: I'm not going to deny that the stuff's spicy, but
- 16:52Speaker 4: it is not criminal. And the problem with this Race
- 16:56Speaker 4: Relations Act of nineteen eighty six, and that's what it's
- 16:59Speaker 4: based on, is did the individual have the intention to
- 17:04Speaker 4: stir up racial hatred? And I'm sure you're to be
- 17:06Speaker 4: aware of this Amelia case where he was the judge
- 17:10Speaker 4: clearly said that no criminality has taken place, but the
- 17:13Speaker 4: jury has to decide whether he had the intention to
- 17:17Speaker 4: stir up So now now they can say as well,
- 17:20Speaker 4: and that is pure thought crime. Did we do we
- 17:24Speaker 4: think this person was intending to stir up racial hatred?
- 17:28Speaker 4: And this what really bugs me the most is ware
- 17:33Speaker 4: are the lawyers. Where are all the good the people
- 17:36Speaker 4: that believe they're they're silent, Just like during COVID, all
- 17:40Speaker 4: the surgeons, all the doctors who didn't speak out on
- 17:44Speaker 4: what was going on. When they removed the indemnity from
- 17:47Speaker 4: the vaccine manufacturers, which we pointed out was unprecedented, they
- 17:53Speaker 4: said there was no risks to these vaccines. We clearly
- 17:56Speaker 4: pointed out that if you take a paracetamol, there is
- 18:00Speaker 4: a risk and it states that on the label. So
- 18:04Speaker 4: the medical profession breached the hypocratical the legal profession.
- 18:10Speaker 3: I just I don't know, I don't know.
- 18:12Speaker 4: Why so many people are just well, maybe they see
- 18:15Speaker 4: the punishment. People know the punishment if you go off
- 18:18Speaker 4: the reservation and you start being a whistleblower.
- 18:21Speaker 3: But we need to see this is the other things
- 18:22Speaker 3: as well, Charles.
- 18:24Speaker 4: We need reputable people to start speaking out. We need
- 18:27Speaker 4: people who are doctors, professors, lawyers, people of standing who
- 18:33Speaker 4: are remaining silent because they need to stand up for
- 18:39Speaker 4: what is right and realize they will be targeted next
- 18:46Speaker 4: that who the state is going to come after will
- 18:48Speaker 4: keep shrinking and shrinking until it's it's your then.
- 18:52Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think that's such a strong message
- 18:56Speaker 2: of really important one that people do absolutely need to
- 18:58Speaker 2: speak out. And like you said, everybody feeling this acknowledging
- 19:04Speaker 2: this needs to speak out, regardless of their positional profession,
- 19:07Speaker 2: but as you say, specifically people who are in more
- 19:11Speaker 2: prominent positions, who are in the public and I should
- 19:14Speaker 2: absolutely be speaking about it.
- 19:16Speaker 4: Of course, the horror stating that you are innocent until
- 19:20Speaker 4: prove and guilty, the horror that people should not be
- 19:24Speaker 4: tried by the media, the horror that the state does
- 19:27Speaker 4: not have the right to go around and compromise people
- 19:30Speaker 4: getting a free I mean, this is all this is
- 19:33Speaker 4: basic stuff that I as a layman, know about that
- 19:37Speaker 4: these are clear breaches of the law that you you
- 19:43Speaker 4: the state should go out of its way to make
- 19:46Speaker 4: sure everybody, regardless of the crime, has a three and
- 19:51Speaker 4: fair trial. And another example is you had West Streeting
- 19:54Speaker 4: the health secretary. He came out the other week and said, well,
- 19:57Speaker 4: if people are racist, they shouldn't be treated on the
- 19:59Speaker 4: NH Yes, every single doctor and nurse was doctor sorry,
- 20:03Speaker 4: should have come out and said that is a breach
- 20:05Speaker 4: of the hypocratical oath. You have to treat everybody if
- 20:10Speaker 4: they are sick or ill, regardless of their So what
- 20:13Speaker 4: do they start doing. Do they start saying, well, we're
- 20:15Speaker 4: not going to treat this guy because of.
- 20:18Speaker 3: Who is that's the rule. You can't break these rules.
- 20:23Speaker 4: Because once you go down that path, when does it
- 20:25Speaker 4: end that you don't treat people in the hospital because
- 20:29Speaker 4: you don't like their political views, you don't treat them
- 20:31Speaker 4: because they're on vaccine. I mean, all these things that
- 20:35Speaker 4: were took hundreds of years to get into place, born
- 20:39Speaker 4: out of the Enlightenment, over the last five years have
- 20:42Speaker 4: just been written asunder they have.
- 20:44Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's exactly right.
- 20:46Speaker 2: It's most obviously saying I think in the medical profession,
- 20:48Speaker 2: where they the sense of division has been actually extraordinary
- 20:53Speaker 2: over the last few years. But it is seen everywhere
- 20:55Speaker 2: in employment, you know, people being given certain positions due
- 20:59Speaker 2: to the certainly other factor, which of course you'd have
- 21:01Speaker 2: nothing to do with employability. And again I think the
- 21:06Speaker 2: other thing, you know, just going back to people speaking
- 21:07Speaker 2: out and indeed having people within the sort of commentary
- 21:13Speaker 2: sphere who are pillaried and demonized it. You know, it's
- 21:17Speaker 2: very interesting now to see such a clear line being
- 21:20Speaker 2: drawn between people who are speaking out and are therefore
- 21:24Speaker 2: labeled as conspiracy theorists, and then they are seen to
- 21:29Speaker 2: be having you know, a certain ideology which makes them
- 21:32Speaker 2: on the far right and therefore an extremist. And then
- 21:36Speaker 2: and then we're getting very close to suggesting that people
- 21:40Speaker 2: just for thinking something are actually terrorists. I mean, it's
- 21:44Speaker 2: very very dangerous, but you can plot now a very
- 21:47Speaker 2: clear line between you know, point A and terrorism.
- 21:52Speaker 4: But so I think all of this is born out
- 21:55Speaker 4: of fear, though, Charles, because if they were confident, and
- 21:59Speaker 4: they were they were secure about themselves, they could have
- 22:02Speaker 4: handled this in a completely different manner. They are clearly panicking.
- 22:06Speaker 4: They are clearly rattled. Starmer is totally out.
- 22:09Speaker 3: Of his depth.
- 22:10Speaker 4: The civil service are totally out of their depth as well.
- 22:13Speaker 4: The way they are behaving is like basically this if
- 22:18Speaker 4: you if you allowed the student Communist Party or like
- 22:21Speaker 4: the student Trotsky Society to run the country, that's that's
- 22:27Speaker 4: that's what you've got. And you know, and in terms
- 22:30Speaker 4: of people say to me, we'll close, what are your politics?
- 22:32Speaker 3: What do you believe?
- 22:34Speaker 4: What I would argue is I want to see this
- 22:36Speaker 4: country return to, you know, the normality we maybe had
- 22:40Speaker 4: forty or fifty years ago, in that the mean position
- 22:44Speaker 4: of most European countries. What we are witnessing right now
- 22:47Speaker 4: is an aberration in history. These are these are clearly
- 22:51Speaker 4: not British values that this government are acting upon, and
- 22:59Speaker 4: they are They are basically at war with the.
- 23:02Speaker 3: Their own citizens.
- 23:06Speaker 1: Yeah, sorry, go on.
- 23:08Speaker 4: We were told that's what they do in North Korea,
- 23:10Speaker 4: that's what they do in China. And see the thing
- 23:13Speaker 4: is as well, I'm pointing this out to people about China.
- 23:15Speaker 4: In China, people know the rules, they know the score.
- 23:18Speaker 4: If you do this, this is what's going to happen
- 23:20Speaker 4: to you. The reason they do it is because they say, well,
- 23:22Speaker 4: we're China's a what one and a half billion people,
- 23:25Speaker 4: we need some form of control. So most people are like, right, fine,
- 23:29Speaker 4: nobody knows the rules, oh am, I allowed to say
- 23:32Speaker 4: this today, or at least if we knew the rules,
- 23:35Speaker 4: it might be a different story. But what they're saying is, well,
- 23:37Speaker 4: we're a free nation, this is a democracy.
- 23:41Speaker 3: But on the other hand, we're going to behave like
- 23:42Speaker 3: a tyranny.
- 23:43Speaker 4: Well, can you just admit you're a tyranny then and
- 23:45Speaker 4: we'll will act accordingly.
- 23:48Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's it.
- 23:50Speaker 2: Sadly because of the when which it's being conducted, and
- 23:53Speaker 2: there's obviously, you know that the ludicrous background to any
- 23:56Speaker 2: of these actions of the state, whether it be to
- 23:59Speaker 2: shuteople in their homes or to lock them up in
- 24:01Speaker 2: prison or you know, whatever it is. Unfortunately, an enormous
- 24:06Speaker 2: majority of people will fall for the rhetoric that is
- 24:09Speaker 2: supposed to underpin the action. Now, as you say, it
- 24:14Speaker 2: seems to have been born of fear, and I think
- 24:18Speaker 2: in actual fact that rather than push people back into corners,
- 24:23Speaker 2: it will galvanize them and it will strengthen their resolve.
- 24:27Speaker 2: And I mean, you know, you have sort of taken
- 24:29Speaker 2: something of a hammering on this. How do you feel
- 24:32Speaker 2: on that score, both personally but also in the wider sense,
- 24:35Speaker 2: how do you think people are going to respond to
- 24:37Speaker 2: all this?
- 24:38Speaker 4: Well, I'm not going to lie on on a personal
- 24:40Speaker 4: level that it doesn't it doesn't hit you in certain ways,
- 24:43Speaker 4: just to be clearly lied about, to have your family
- 24:47Speaker 4: involved that that.
- 24:49Speaker 3: Is you know, it's horrible. But again.
- 24:56Speaker 4: You have to look at the bigger picture. And it
- 25:00Speaker 4: was funny. I was in a conversation with someone. They said, well,
- 25:02Speaker 4: why don't you just chuck it, Why don't you just
- 25:04Speaker 4: move on? I said, well, I do believe in principles
- 25:08Speaker 4: things like free speech, individual liberty, the ability to discuss
- 25:12Speaker 4: these things. Even if I was the dictator, the all
- 25:15Speaker 4: grow powerful dictator of Britain, I mean, would you be
- 25:19Speaker 4: behaving like this, just locking people away and ruining their lives.
- 25:24Speaker 4: It is, it's totally counterproductive by the state and the
- 25:29Speaker 4: way they're behaving.
- 25:30Speaker 3: And the thing is it's not just.
- 25:32Speaker 4: On this Charles that laborer are making a massive Look
- 25:36Speaker 4: at what they did with the winter fuel payment, look
- 25:39Speaker 4: at what they're doing with the train.
- 25:41Speaker 3: The trains they.
- 25:42Speaker 4: Basically said to as left finally accept your deal, and.
- 25:48Speaker 3: All the other unions are now jumping on board.
- 25:51Speaker 4: They gave the junior doctors a massive payrise, you've got
- 25:53Speaker 4: the asylum cases still costing a fortune, and then you've
- 25:57Speaker 4: had that on private schools as well, which halfway through
- 26:01Speaker 4: the year, loads of people are turning.
- 26:03Speaker 3: Around and they're saying, what's this.
- 26:07Speaker 4: Also, they are actively going out of their way to
- 26:11Speaker 4: create massive blocks who hate them from many different perspectives,
- 26:17Speaker 4: and the only block that they can rely on now
- 26:21Speaker 4: is the sort of public sector aristocracy. And there was
- 26:25Speaker 4: an interesting graphic out about who votes labor and like
- 26:28Speaker 4: forty percent plus of the voter for people earning seventy
- 26:32Speaker 4: k plus. These will all be people in very well
- 26:34Speaker 4: paid public sector or woke state corporations. But that number
- 26:42Speaker 4: of people maybe amounts to what five six million, So
- 26:46Speaker 4: you're looking at a stage where labor will see their
- 26:51Speaker 4: support continue to plummet from an already low level. Starmar's
- 26:55Speaker 4: approval rating will keep going down and within six months
- 27:00Speaker 4: going to have a major legitimacy crisis about this government
- 27:04Speaker 4: and what are people going to.
- 27:07Speaker 3: Turn back to the Tories.
- 27:08Speaker 4: The Tories are spent force as well, so the ruling
- 27:12Speaker 4: elites of this country have a disaster awaiting them, and
- 27:16Speaker 4: do you know what, I could be happier it serves
- 27:18Speaker 4: them right. And then you've got all the inter ethnic
- 27:22Speaker 4: conflicts that are there potentially going to erupt as well,
- 27:26Speaker 4: the mess that they've made of this country over the
- 27:33Speaker 4: last thirty years and the money printing, the fiscal irresponsibility.
- 27:41Speaker 4: There's going to be a day of reckoning and lead
- 27:45Speaker 4: to just wait and see how it all plays out.
- 27:48Speaker 2: We will, indeed, and I think we'll probably have to
- 27:51Speaker 2: draw to a close there.
- 27:54Speaker 1: I mean as a final night.
- 27:56Speaker 2: I think to somebody I was speaking to yesterday, I
- 27:59Speaker 2: think encapsulated a lot of what we and the audience
- 28:04Speaker 2: will be feeling. And he just it wasn't it wasn't
- 28:06Speaker 2: said in despair, but he simply said, I just want
- 28:09Speaker 2: to be left alone. And I thought that was pretty
- 28:13Speaker 2: much bang on. But David Clues, thank you very much
- 28:16Speaker 2: indeed for speaking to me. And there will be some
- 28:20Speaker 2: notes posted below this at UK column dot org. But
- 28:24Speaker 2: do keep a touch David. It's been a real pleasure.
- 28:26Speaker 3: Thank you, Thank you,
