00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:11,720
Good afternoon. 
It is Monday the 12th of 

2
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:16,160
February 2024, just after 1:00. 
Welcome to UK Column News. 

3
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:19,200
I'm your host Brian Gerrish with
me in the studio, Mike Robinson,

4
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:23,640
and we're delighted to be joined
by Mark Anderson from the 

5
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:27,400
States. 
Well, we're going to get started

6
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,880
straight away with what's really
disaster in the Royal Navy. 

7
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,960
We've got quite a strong report 
on defence today and I'm going 

8
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:39,000
to say we are making the 
statements we're making out of 

9
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,760
respect to the member of members
of our armed forces, because 

10
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,400
it's blatantly apparent that 
service men and women are being 

11
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:48,720
betrayed by the British 
government. 

12
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,560
But let's kick off with the 
latest disaster. 

13
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,280
Well, a little while ago of 
course the Queen Elizabeth 

14
00:00:54,760 --> 00:01:00,000
aircraft carrier wasn't able to 
sail due to a propeller shaft 

15
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,280
problem. 
I was interested with this 

16
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,960
headline from Business Insider 
because it said the high profile

17
00:01:06,960 --> 00:01:12,880
failure of a £3.7 billion sorry 
billion dollar aircraft carrier 

18
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:16,400
shows how Britain is struggling 
to keep up with first rate 

19
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,920
militaries. 
What a true statement there. 

20
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:22,280
But this is really the rub, 
because of course the second 

21
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:28,200
carrier, HMS Prince of Wales, 
has now also been unable to sail

22
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:33,320
due to what I would suspect is 
the same or similar problem. 

23
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,560
Yes, but hold on a second. 
HMS Princess Wales is only out 

24
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,400
of dry dock for exactly that 
problem. 

25
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,800
Are you suggesting this recurred
after the fact? 

26
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,320
After, it hasn't sailed 
anywhere. 

27
00:01:42,320 --> 00:01:44,080
It's just. 
I could believe so. 

28
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:48,600
My because I think this is a, 
this is an original design 

29
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,520
problem and this is going to 
cause big problems because 

30
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:57,120
because the people we've spoken 
to, there's no easy fix around 

31
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,160
this. 
So this is design trouble and 

32
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,360
they're in big trouble. 
So no aircraft carriers for the 

33
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,160
UK. 
So obviously the Houthis are not

34
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,560
going to be seeing this 
tremendous weapon out in their 

35
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,960
neck of the woods. 
I've titled this orchestrated 

36
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,880
breakdown, but not to worry, We 
can't get an aircraft carrier to

37
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,120
see. 
But according to the Telegraph, 

38
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:25,480
defence journalist Danielle 
Sheridan, the Royal Marines new 

39
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,520
vessel to deliver a lethal 
punch. 

40
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,760
There we are. 
There's a picture of the lethal 

41
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,240
new vessel for the UK. 
I'm having difficulty keeping a 

42
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,200
straight face, but this is the 
reality of the madness. 

43
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,120
What are we looking at? 
We're actually looking at an 

44
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:44,080
upgraded rubber boat with some 
machine guns on it. 

45
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:48,280
But according to the defence 
correspondent of the Telegraph, 

46
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,520
here she is, Danielle Sheridan. 
And if we have a look at her 

47
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:56,680
experience, she's been defence 
editor for a year and 10 months 

48
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,240
before that political and 
defence correspondent. 

49
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,720
But I'm going to say that this 
young lady can't cut the mustard

50
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:07,040
because she should be ripping 
the Ministry of Defence to 

51
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,480
pieces. 
What does she do instead? 

52
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,120
Well, this is a bit more of her 
article with some astonishing 

53
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,880
information. 
This little boat has been 

54
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,960
repainted in greater to help it 
hide. 

55
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,360
Mike. 
It's incredible, isn't it? 

56
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:25,360
It's got new engine so it can do
200 miles of 40 knots. 

57
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,640
It's got a new configuration of 
the driving position. 

58
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:32,520
It's a bit like selling a car. 
It's got new cooling systems, a 

59
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,800
mast and a trim for better 
protection in sea conditions. 

60
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:41,080
This is remarkable. 
And the CRC has three crew who 

61
00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,560
rotate on long journeys. 
Well, presumably they're going 

62
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,680
to be doing longer journeys than
the 2 aircraft carriers. 

63
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:53,640
Let's have a look at some video 
clips in order to get an idea of

64
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,800
who has been saying what. 
And these are astonishing We've 

65
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,520
we've given you a little 
compendium of videos. 

66
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,080
Let's start with the first one, 
which is Grant Shapps. 

67
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,519
Well, apologies, he wasn't 
actually speaking, but that was 

68
00:04:20,519 --> 00:04:24,200
from his Twitter page. 
And what is he talking about? 

69
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,600
He's talking about the latest 
and greatest missiles which 

70
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,720
apparently shooting down the 
Houthi drought. 

71
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,320
The only problem is information 
coming into the UK column says 

72
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,040
that there's a problem with 
toxic fumes on board the Royal 

73
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,520
Navy ships firing these. 
That is the allegation. 

74
00:04:40,840 --> 00:04:43,600
We're going to do our very best 
to see whether we confirm that. 

75
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:47,240
But clearly it seems there's 
some sort of problem there. 

76
00:04:47,280 --> 00:04:49,240
There's certainly a problem with
the carrier. 

77
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,320
Well, let's have a look at what 
Admiral Radakin had to say about

78
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:57,480
his duties. 
We showed this a few months ago.

79
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,080
First of all I do. 
Love your office. 

80
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,200
Did you choose it to make it as 
like being on a? 

81
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,160
Ship as possible without 
actually being open. 

82
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:12,000
So I suppose we're lucky. 
So this is a fantastic place to 

83
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,200
base a Navy headquarters. 
So we're at the top of the 

84
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:19,120
harbour, we're on Whale Island 
and it's fantastic to have large

85
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:23,040
windows and it's great for me to
be able to look out and see our 

86
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,520
ships. 
I think it's less good for our 

87
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,720
ship CEOs to know that they're 
they're under the gaze of the of

88
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,280
the headquarters. 
In a way it's reassuring that 

89
00:05:32,280 --> 00:05:36,120
when you go back to a ship and 
whether it's the ladders or it's

90
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:40,520
the food or it's the smell, 
Personally I don't like going to

91
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,960
ships and not not going. 
Up to the bridge. 

92
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,520
I love this. 
This is a brilliant graphic and 

93
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:51,440
to me this describes the world 
that we're actually in, which is

94
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,440
a world dominated by the sea. 
And the different colours 

95
00:05:55,680 --> 00:06:01,320
represent the different trades 
that go around the world on the 

96
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:05,560
sea. 
What do you make of that, Mike? 

97
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,120
I don't know what to say. 
I mean, he likes looking out his

98
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:10,480
window at the ships. 
We can't get the carriers to see

99
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:14,080
the Type 40 fives can't go into 
warm water. 

100
00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:17,000
We've got problems with missile 
systems, propeller shafts, 

101
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,440
recruiting, but the colours on 
the map are just wonderful. 

102
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,160
So where did we send Admiral 
Radican? 

103
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:27,760
We sent him somewhere special to
give his expertise on how to 

104
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,600
fight a land war. 
Let's just remind ourselves of 

105
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,520
this little Guardian report 
here. 

106
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,720
And there we are. 
That's our guy. 

107
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:40,800
How UK military chief became key
NATO liaison in Ukraine. 

108
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:45,240
He can't keep his fleet at sea, 
so we sent him off to Ukraine to

109
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,360
tell the Ukrainian army how to 
fight the Russians. 

110
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,640
And of course, what's happened 
and utter disaster. 

111
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,560
Well, meanwhile, how is the 
British Army doing? 

112
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,920
Well, let's go back to a little 
piece of video clip with General

113
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,320
Sir Patrick Saunders to see what
he's learnt. 

114
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,880
And if you're in the army now, 
you Join Now. 

115
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,920
The army you join will look 
radically different in the 

116
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,440
course of the next six or seven 
years. 

117
00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:15,120
And just to give you a sense of 
of the pace of that, we've now 

118
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,800
got a really clear sense of our 
purpose. 

119
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,000
So the army's purpose is to 
fight and win wars on land. 

120
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,200
Well, there we are, astonishing 
news from General Sanders. 

121
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:31,040
Apparently the army is supposed 
to fight and win wars on land. 

122
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,680
It's a remarkable I I was under 
the impression it could have 

123
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,360
been at sea, but he's happy with
that. 

124
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,640
So. 
So what sort of politicians have

125
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,200
brought this madness to the 
military? 

126
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,240
Let's have a look at our old 
friend Ben Wallace. 

127
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:48,720
There's a rumour there's a 
reshuffle tomorrow. 

128
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,520
The day after. 
Yeah, In which case this will be

129
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,240
your last hurrah. 
In that case, I'll just be over 

130
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:55,680
there on the seating with 
everyone else. 

131
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,760
Why did you decide that you'd 
had enough? 

132
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,000
Well, there's a man over there 
that slightly inspires me to go 

133
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:09,240
on your own terms. 
I think I'd done four years. 

134
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,200
I'd done three years as security
minister. 

135
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:18,440
That's seven years of so 24/7. 
So seven years, which was enough

136
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,880
to help the general carnage 
ripping apart Britain's armed 

137
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,400
forces and then following the 
lead. 

138
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:27,200
I think he's referring to Tony 
Blair in that particular 

139
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:32,480
scenario. 
He just walks away, leaving the 

140
00:08:32,919 --> 00:08:35,760
chaos and the madness. 
Let's have a look at another 

141
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:37,679
one. 
This is Jane Cartilage talking 

142
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,440
about procurement. 
Well, as the new Minister of 

143
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:44,240
State for Defence procurement at
the Ministry of Defence, I 

144
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,480
thought I'd come to Abbey Wood 
to see DNS, which is about as 

145
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,400
close to the front line of 
procurement as you can get. 

146
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,720
Doing all these amazing things, 
procuring new equipment for 

147
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,640
armed forces, maintaining the 
stuff that's already there. 

148
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,280
It's been really interesting and
I look forward to working them 

149
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,680
in the future. 
I was incredibly inspired to 

150
00:09:00,680 --> 00:09:03,800
meet the staff because I mean 
particularly the ones involved 

151
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:05,760
in involved in procuring for 
Ukraine. 

152
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,760
They've worked so hard to get 
stuff out there and it's made a 

153
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:12,840
real difference in theatre, made
a difference in what is, you 

154
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,360
know, a full on war in Europe 
today. 

155
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,600
They should be very proud of 
what they're doing, but we've 

156
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,640
got to keep doing that and I'm 
here to work with them and make 

157
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,080
sure we can keep delivering for 
Ukraine but also for the British

158
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:24,760
armed forces and what they do 
around the world. 

159
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,800
Well, as we're going to be 
hearing a little bit later in 

160
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:35,360
today's news, procurement is not
working in any shape or form. 

161
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:39,400
And if material has been 
supplied to Ukraine, it's 

162
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:43,080
certainly not reaching the the 
front line of the UK armed 

163
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,040
forces. 
So another massive failure. 

164
00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:50,400
But let's just come back to our 
old friend Ben Wallace, because 

165
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:55,040
he mentioned NATO. 
Let us move on to the 

166
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,080
substantive issues of NATO and 
what is happening in. 

167
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,640
Ukraine I would, I suppose the 
one thing that has happened 

168
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:05,440
that, you know, I think. 
It was Emmanuel Macron who was 

169
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,120
saying that NATO was brain dead 
and no one would say that now 

170
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:13,280
it's found its reason to be in a
way that was unimaginable prior 

171
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,760
to the invasion by Russia of 
Ukraine. 

172
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:21,400
Is NATO in a stronger position? 
And we'd hear about the fraying 

173
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,040
of NATO unity. 
What is wrong more remarkable in

174
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,160
your mind, the fraying or the 
extent of the unity? 

175
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:33,360
Well, first of all, NATO has 
worked throughout this war. 

176
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,120
Well, of course NATO hasn't 
worked throughout the war in 

177
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,320
Ukraine. 
Because of course, Ukraine is on

178
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,320
the verge of defeat. 
Terrible carnage on the 

179
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:48,080
battlefield, and it's obvious 
that the power of the Russian 

180
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:52,280
military, even facing the help 
that NATO can give it, the 

181
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:56,560
Russians are coming out on top. 
Meanwhile, all of the ammunition

182
00:10:56,560 --> 00:10:59,640
stocks and NATO have been 
cleared out, and most of the 

183
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:04,600
NATO military are without major 
equipment because it's been 

184
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,520
given to Ukraine. 
So an utter shambles. 

185
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,520
Is this an accident? 
I don't think so. 

186
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,960
I think what we're looking at is
the deliberate destruction of 

187
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,680
Britain's military. 
But we do don't need to worry 

188
00:11:16,680 --> 00:11:19,520
because the British government 
is spending parts and parts of 

189
00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,440
money on defence and they've 
just published the latest 

190
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,280
statistics. 
So they've got a little bit of 

191
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,720
video that they published on 
Twitter this morning. 

192
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,640
It's £25 billion, two billion 
coming from Scotland, 

193
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:35,080
186,000,000 coming from Northern
Ireland and so on. 

194
00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:38,320
So this is all fantastic. 
Apparently all of the nations of

195
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:42,080
the UK have increased their 
spending and this means that 

196
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:46,880
there's an average of £370 per 
human being in the UK being 

197
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:52,280
spent with UK defence companies 
and that is supporting 209,000 

198
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,440
jobs at the moment. 
So the British government 

199
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:59,040
extremely excited about that. 
But of course, what they're not 

200
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:03,360
excited about was the recent 
comments from Donald Trump. 

201
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:08,000
And he was talking. 
NATO was busted until I came 

202
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:09,600
along. 
I said everybody's going to pay.

203
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,680
They said, well, if we don't 
pay, are you still going to 

204
00:12:12,680 --> 00:12:14,680
protect us? 
I said absolutely not. 

205
00:12:14,680 --> 00:12:15,960
They couldn't believe the 
answer. 

206
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,240
They asked me that question. 
One of the presidents of a big 

207
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:23,440
country stood up, said, Well, 
Sir, if we don't pay and we're 

208
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:26,160
attacked by Russia, will you 
protect us? 

209
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,920
I said you didn't pay your 
delinquent. 

210
00:12:29,680 --> 00:12:31,840
He said Yes, let's say that 
happened. 

211
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,200
No, I would not protect you. 
In fact, I would encourage them 

212
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:36,680
to do whatever the hell they 
want. 

213
00:12:36,680 --> 00:12:38,920
You got to pay. 
You got to pay your bills. 

214
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,720
So the British politicians and 
British ministering press going 

215
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,600
absolutely nuts up over that 
statement. 

216
00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:50,120
They're apparently panicking 
over whether Trump will become 

217
00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,560
president once again. 
But of course, if they were 

218
00:12:52,560 --> 00:12:56,760
paying attention, I realized 
it'd been, what, three prime 

219
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,720
ministers since? 
But Trump originally made these 

220
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,320
comments. 
But if we go back to 2017, Trump

221
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,040
opened the NATO's headquarters 
in Brussels. 

222
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:11,680
We've got a picture of it here. 
And this was him standing beside

223
00:13:11,680 --> 00:13:16,680
Jan Stoltenberg with the 9/11 
Article 5 memorial, which is 

224
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,760
outside the NATO headquarters in
Brussels at the moment. 

225
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:24,720
But Trump was absolutely clear 
at that meeting that defence 

226
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,880
spending by European countries 
would have to be increased, that

227
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:33,360
the US was no longer going to 
pay for European defence and, 

228
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:39,280
well, this is what he said. 
I have been very, very direct 

229
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:45,760
with Secretary Stoltenberg and 
members of the alliance in 

230
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:50,240
saying that NATO members must 
finally contribute their fair 

231
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:54,680
share and meet their financial 
obligations. 

232
00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:01,520
But 23 of the 28 member nations 
are still not paying what they 

233
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:05,120
should be paying and what 
they're supposed to be paying 

234
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:10,360
for their defense. 
This is not fair to the people 

235
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:14,480
and taxpayers of the United 
States, and many of these 

236
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:19,080
nations owe massive amounts of 
money from past years and not 

237
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:23,440
paying in those past years. 
Over the last eight years, the 

238
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:28,080
United States spent more on 
defense than all other NATO 

239
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,960
countries combined. 
If all NATO members had spent 

240
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:38,520
just 2% of their GDP on defense 
last year, we would have had 

241
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:45,480
another $119 billion for our 
collective defense and for the 

242
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:50,720
financing of additional NATO 
reserves. 

243
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,440
So it shouldn't really. 
Sorry, Brian, I'm just going to 

244
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:59,680
say it shouldn't really be a 
surprise to anybody that Trump 

245
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:01,640
would make a statement like the 
one he made a couple of days 

246
00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:05,800
ago, despite the hysteria in the
UK press, which would imply that

247
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,640
they were surprised by it in 
some way. 

248
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:16,080
But nonetheless, our budget, 
USUKEU budget on the fence is an

249
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,440
order of magnitude higher than 
Russia or China. 

250
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,760
And yet we don't have hypersonic
missiles. 

251
00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:24,440
We have a collapsing military. 
Why is that? 

252
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,880
Well, I for us, for the Uki 
believe it's because we no 

253
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:33,240
longer have any reliance on 
building equipment in house. 

254
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,800
We've been told for many years 
we don't have the knowledge, the

255
00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,760
experience, the professionals, 
the quality of people, 

256
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:45,280
everything was outsourced to a 
mismatch across the European 

257
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:49,120
Union and what did we get? 
Poor low quality products in 

258
00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,240
inflated prices. 
But I just wanted to comment on,

259
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:58,680
on that that speech by Trump, 
because look at the faces of the

260
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,080
Europeans in the background, 
glowering and looking extremely 

261
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:06,640
unhappy for people who say that 
all these people, the Americans 

262
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:10,360
and NATO, work together as one 
cohesive bloc. 

263
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,480
They're all in it together. 
I don't think this is quite 

264
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:15,520
true. 
You can see the fractiousness 

265
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,840
between them. 
OK, so let's come back to the 

266
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,280
UK. 
And of course, on Friday we were

267
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:26,520
talking about the interview with
Vladimir Putin. 

268
00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,520
And of course, one of the 
allegations that Putin made, we 

269
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:32,480
showed the little video clip, 
was that Boris had scoured the 

270
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,240
peace deal on Ukraine right at 
the very beginning, Boris 

271
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:39,200
responded to this. 
So let's start off with a little

272
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:43,640
bit of video. 
Around the world, people are 

273
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:47,240
watching that ludicrous 
interview with Vladimir Putin 

274
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,080
conducted. 
By Tucker Carlson. 

275
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:54,760
And we must not fall for this 
tissue of lies above, for the 

276
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:58,960
notion that Putin somehow fated.
To succeed in Ukraine. 

277
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:02,000
On the contrary, he is doomed to
fail. 

278
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:07,640
Read about it in The Daily Man. 
So this morning is a comedy 

279
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,720
show, Brian. 
It's it's very difficult to do 

280
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,280
this because of course we're 
putting out a serious report 

281
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:15,720
about what's happening in the 
world. 

282
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,319
But we're dealing with complete 
we're reporting on complete 

283
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:24,800
incompetent idiots and and Boris
Johnson has got to be the lead. 

284
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,960
That man should be removed from 
politics. 

285
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,560
He is dangerous. 
He is destroying the country. 

286
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,960
And who would you believe, Putin
or Boris? 

287
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,000
Well, for me, there will be only
one choice and that at the 

288
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:40,680
moment would be Putin. 
Boris Johnson has got to be 

289
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:43,160
removed. 
He's he's from his position. 

290
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,040
OK, well, let's have a look at 
the Daily Mail article itself. 

291
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:47,640
This was a headline Boris 
Johnson. 

292
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:51,600
Colon Putin's interview with his
fawning sturge, Tucker Carlson, 

293
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,160
was straight out of Hitler's 
playbook. 

294
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,440
It's pathetic. 
But unfortunately for Boris, 

295
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,640
despite the denials, some people
have memories. 

296
00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:05,040
And so here's a little piece of 
video which one of Zelensky's 

297
00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:09,840
key men talking about Boris's 
role with respect to the peace 

298
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:13,000
deal. 
One is a groto. 

299
00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,120
Ebola is a Quinci TV. 
No, you've shown me this. 

300
00:18:15,120 --> 00:18:39,960
More yet, Finland. 
So that's pretty clear now. 

301
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,600
That was David. 
I apologise, I'm going to mess 

302
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,960
up the name here. 
But David Arakamiya, he's a 

303
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,120
member of Zelensky's Servant of 
the People Party since 20. 

304
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,960
Well, in 2014 he became advisor 
to the Ministry of Defence in 

305
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,800
Ukraine and chairman of the 
Council of Volunteers at the 

306
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,760
Ministry of Defence in Ukraine. 
And he's served as the Secretary

307
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:01,920
of the National Investment 
Council of Ukraine since August 

308
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,040
2019. 
So you know, this was. 

309
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,960
So it's a war because of Boris. 
That's exactly it, yes. 

310
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:12,280
Oh, yes. 
Just to finish this segment off,

311
00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:16,280
then of course the bit of 
hysteria, and not only in the 

312
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,920
media about Trump, but also 
about the global South as a 

313
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,000
whole. 
So let's bring up three articles

314
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:25,160
from Chatham House very quickly,
Stop taking the global S for 

315
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:29,280
granted from Baroness Ashton. 
Then we have one here from Arif 

316
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:31,960
Leilani. 
New global alliances leave the 

317
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:36,400
West behind and another one 
measuring the power of the 

318
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:40,200
global S the think tanks, the 
major think tanks in the UK 

319
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:44,600
starting to recognise what a 
position we are in. 

320
00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:47,120
What a disastrous position we're
in. 

321
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,240
Now let's just move on to this 
report. 

322
00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:54,080
House of Commons Defence 
Committee ready for war, First 

323
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:58,680
report of session. 
This was put out on the 30th of 

324
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:02,480
January this this year. 
Today we've only got time just 

325
00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:04,760
to give you a glimpse, so I went
to the summary. 

326
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,000
What's he talking about? 
Readiness. 

327
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:11,040
The ability to deploy personnel 
and equipment within a set time 

328
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,240
frame for the personnel to be 
trained. 

329
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,400
To use that equipment 
effectively. 

330
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,840
My goodness, this is top right 
stuff. 

331
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,480
But have a look at this. 
What's being said here? 

332
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:24,280
Operational readiness, the 
ability to deploy a force for a 

333
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,960
standing commitment or respond 
to a crisis. 

334
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:30,800
We find this proven. 
They're saying we think that the

335
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:35,440
armed forces of UK can do it, 
but with issues of overstretch I

336
00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,080
think this is a a ridiculous 
statement. 

337
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:42,120
But the second one, war fighting
readiness, the ability to deploy

338
00:20:42,120 --> 00:20:45,320
and sustain a force that can 
fight at high intensity in 

339
00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:49,280
multiple domains for a long 
period of time, we find this to 

340
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,440
be in doubt. 
And finally, strategic 

341
00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,480
readiness, the ability of the 
state to identify and utilise 

342
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,520
all the tools available to its 
support. 

343
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:02,400
A war fighting effort. 
This appears still to be more of

344
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:07,160
a concept under debate. 
So the strategic readiness of 

345
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:11,120
our armed forces is described as
a concept under debate. 

346
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:16,000
This is outrageous. 
But if we go on through, this is

347
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:19,040
the summary and the paragraphs. 
But I'm just going to take the 

348
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:23,400
headlines for you today. 
The inquiry itself was Hanford 

349
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,400
by a lack of government 
transparency. 

350
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,000
So the government lying and 
being deceitful, that's what 

351
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:33,640
they always do to cover up an an
enquiry into the state of the 

352
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,080
armed forces. 
It went on to say that the UK 

353
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:42,160
armed forces have capability and
stockpile shortages. 

354
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:46,360
That means they can't fight a 
war, and if we go on to the next

355
00:21:46,360 --> 00:21:50,000
one here, it says there's no 
easy answer to these problems. 

356
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,840
We recognize that the government
is considering options for 

357
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:56,520
improving recruitment and 
retention of personnel by aiming

358
00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,000
to reform its procurement system
with a view to building 

359
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:05,520
industrial capacity. 
So this is, of course, glossing 

360
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,160
over the real problem. 
We don't have an industrial 

361
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:12,400
capacity that was destroyed as 
part of our joining the European

362
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,800
Union. 
But we can't recruit and hold 

363
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:19,000
people into the armed forces. 
It goes on to say that I've 

364
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,840
paraphrased this. 
I've changed the way they've 

365
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,800
made the statement, but we're 
spending 50 billion a year plus 

366
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:29,560
the money for Ukraine. 
The UK's armed forces cannot 

367
00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:32,800
fight a sustained, high 
intensity war. 

368
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:38,200
And my question to this is, are 
we looking at calculated treason

369
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,840
to destroy the ability of this 
country to defend itself? 

370
00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:45,120
In my mind it's clear this is 
treason, but others may 

371
00:22:45,120 --> 00:22:49,120
disagree. 
And if we just come on to the 

372
00:22:49,120 --> 00:22:53,640
conclusion, it says there's no 
easy answer to all the problems 

373
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,760
outlined in the main report, 
which we will cover in future 

374
00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:00,000
addition to the news. 
They claim that the threat from 

375
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:01,920
Russia has changed. 
No it hasn't. 

376
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,080
It's always been there, They're 
just now understanding how 

377
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,920
powerful Russia is. 
It says the armed forces have 

378
00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,800
been over tasked. 
Some truth in this, but of 

379
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:15,200
course you're only over tasked 
if you don't have the assets to 

380
00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:19,440
do the task in the first place. 
And the fleet and the army and 

381
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:23,640
the Air Force have consistently 
been cut in size, more leaving 

382
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,480
than joining the armed forces. 
Well, that's due to the 

383
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,800
outsourcing of recruitment. 
And finally, it says the 

384
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:33,680
government must break the cycle.
No, the government has broken 

385
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,000
the armed forces. 
So I'm going to say without any 

386
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:41,160
doubt this is the orchestrated 
breakdown of the armed forces. 

387
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:45,720
And to me, this is deliberate 
and has been for a great many 

388
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:47,880
years. 
But we'll we'll do more in 

389
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,600
future news editions. 
Now, you'll remember a couple of

390
00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:54,120
weeks ago, Grant Schapp said 
this to say, he said, we're in a

391
00:23:54,120 --> 00:23:57,840
new area era and we must be 
prepared to deter our enemies, 

392
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,440
prepared to lead our allies, 
prepared to defend our nation 

393
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,600
whenever the call comes. 
And of course, he was talking 

394
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:07,920
about creating some kind of 
militarization of our young and 

395
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,600
perhaps conscription. 
Who knows? 

396
00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:15,800
But part of the message was 
this, that Russia has what the 

397
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:19,040
two countries describe as a no 
limits partnership with China. 

398
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,880
So we've got to worry about 
Russia and China, but we also 

399
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:25,600
have to worry about terrorism 
and threats from non state 

400
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:29,200
actors. 
And it was interesting that 

401
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:33,480
somebody sent me a little piece 
of video from the United States 

402
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:38,320
of Sheriff speaking. 
Let's have a listen to this 

403
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:43,760
brief clip. 
We'll start out with My name is 

404
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,800
Rick Jones. 
I'm the Butler County Sheriff, 

405
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:51,400
Butler County, Ohio. 
I just came back from a national

406
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:56,160
sheriff's training in DC three 
days ago. 

407
00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:02,320
Two days ago, we were briefed by
the FBI Director Ray, the 

408
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:07,080
Director of the FBI, and several
federal agencies. 

409
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:11,200
There's 3300 sheriffs in the 
United States. 

410
00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,720
The President of the United 
States refuses to meet with the 

411
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:18,320
sheriff's of the 3300. 
We have a hierarchy. 

412
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,480
We have a president. 
We have a vice president. 

413
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,160
President of the United States 
refuses to meet with the 

414
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:27,640
sheriff's. 
He also refuses to meet with the

415
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,280
police chiefs of the United 
States. 

416
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,080
They have a hierarchy. 
Also. 

417
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:36,000
He refuses to meet with them to 
talk about border issues or talk

418
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,920
about crime. 
That's going on because of the 

419
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:43,040
border issue. 
We were also told by Mr. Ray, 

420
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:48,040
the FBI director, that there are
more red flags going off now 

421
00:25:48,120 --> 00:25:54,960
than before. 911, OK, When I say
red flags, meaning people that 

422
00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:58,720
are here in this country, that 
are wanting to do harm to us, 

423
00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:03,640
There's thousands of people here
from other countries, 160 

424
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:07,240
different countries. 
They're here not to be our 

425
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,760
friends. 
Some of them are coming because 

426
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,360
they're wanting to come here to 
the best country in the world. 

427
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:13,760
The way we. 
See it? 

428
00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:18,360
Some are coming here to do harm 
to us and we were told by the 

429
00:26:18,360 --> 00:26:21,320
FBI director. 
It's not a matter. 

430
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:28,440
Of. 
If it's a matter of when, So 

431
00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:31,400
isn't it a coincidence that both
the United Kingdom and the 

432
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,720
United States have the same kind
of problem? 

433
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,880
It isn't it a coincidence that 
in the UK it's widely 

434
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:40,520
acknowledged that we have seen a
lot of young fighting age men 

435
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:44,120
being brought into this country 
in the last couple of years and 

436
00:26:44,120 --> 00:26:47,120
the same thing seems to be being
warned about in the United 

437
00:26:47,120 --> 00:26:49,680
States as well. 
Now if you remember if you were 

438
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:52,520
watching the genocide and 
Empire, supposing that we held a

439
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:56,080
few weeks ago, Kevin Ryan was 
talking about this idea of a 

440
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,040
structural deep event. 
And one of the things that he 

441
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,800
said was a common feature that 
you might recognise A structural

442
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:06,360
deep event is if you start 
seeing common narratives in 

443
00:27:06,360 --> 00:27:08,680
different places around the 
world at the same time. 

444
00:27:09,120 --> 00:27:11,640
And I just wanted to to sort of 
draw that to everybody's 

445
00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:15,560
attention and maybe we can talk 
a little bit more with Mark on 

446
00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:20,400
that in extra. 
So Mark, let's bring you onto 

447
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,840
the programme and change topics 
now onto Agenda 2030. 

448
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:29,640
Interesting timing with what 
you're saying, gentlemen. 

449
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:35,000
We have two reports here from 
the UN1 very recent to the left 

450
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:40,120
migration of the 2030 agenda, a 
guide for practitioners from the

451
00:27:40,120 --> 00:27:44,160
Office of Migration of the UN 
and the Swiss government has its

452
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,360
stamp of approval on that 
because it was put together in 

453
00:27:47,360 --> 00:27:49,800
Geneva. 
The other is all the way from 

454
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,600
the year 2000 and older report 
to the right replacement 

455
00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:58,080
migration, is it a solution to 
declining and aging populations?

456
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,720
This is the double barrels, 
gentlemen, of what's going on 

457
00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:06,240
and why it's happening. 
You talk about commonalities in 

458
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:11,000
the UK and the US military, aged
men coming across the border in 

459
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:16,320
large numbers, while the the 
common framework under which 

460
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:21,120
that happens, by all accounts is
coming from the United Nations 

461
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,720
and is more or less on 
autopilot. 

462
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,880
So whatever whatever national 
governments do, whatever they 

463
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:30,920
argue in Congress or Parliament 
seems to be spit wise, hitting 

464
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:32,760
the side of a battleship if you 
will. 

465
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:38,440
And EU NS philosophy and 
policies go largely unnoticed 

466
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,720
and if they're noticed, largely 
unchallenged. 

467
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,240
But we have a little bit that 
explains this. 

468
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:46,120
This is from the Migration in 
20-30 agenda. 

469
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,320
Just to get the core quotes out 
of this, the 2030 agenda 

470
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:54,880
recognizes migration as a core 
development consideration. 

471
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,760
Core development consideration, 
which marks the first time 

472
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:02,840
migration is integrated 
explicitly into the Global 

473
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:05,560
development agenda. 
Listen to that. 

474
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:09,880
The agenda is relevant to all 
mobile populations, all, 

475
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:15,040
regardless of whether internal 
or cross-border, displaced or 

476
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:20,920
not, goals and targets will be 
met for all nations and peoples 

477
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:25,360
and all segments of society. 
It recognizes migrant men, women

478
00:29:25,360 --> 00:29:29,040
and children as a vulnerable 
group to be protected and as 

479
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:32,880
agents of development. 
All types of migration should 

480
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,440
also be considered, including 
displacement. 

481
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,040
It gets better. 
Let's move on from there. 

482
00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,760
This is additionally from the 
one to the left, Migration on 

483
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:47,000
the 2030 Agenda, page 13. 
The last one was page 13 as 

484
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,240
well. 
The central reference to 

485
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:54,840
migration is made in target 10.7
under the goal that's one of the

486
00:29:54,840 --> 00:30:01,280
17 strategic development goals 
of of Agenda 203010.7. 

487
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:07,080
And that is reduce inequality in
and among countries calling to 

488
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,680
facilitate orderly, safe and 
regular and responsible 

489
00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,680
migration and mobility of 
people, including through the 

490
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:18,440
implementation of planned and 
well managed migration policies.

491
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:20,760
And we'll keep explaining it 
there. 

492
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,600
So migration fits into the 
strategic development goals. 

493
00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:27,680
It's an integral thing. 
And this is kind of the capstone

494
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,920
of this. 
This is right out of the report.

495
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:34,720
The applicability of all 
Sustainable Development Goal 

496
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:39,520
targets to all countries 
underlines how each has a role 

497
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:42,640
to play in migration and 
provides A framework for 

498
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:46,960
progress for more effective 
international governance of 

499
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,880
migration that is based on 
global partnerships. 

500
00:30:50,360 --> 00:30:53,680
There's nothing about national 
sovereignty ever even recognized

501
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:55,920
here. 
This moves beyond the notion of 

502
00:30:55,920 --> 00:31:00,600
classifying countries as origin,
transit or destination and 

503
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,600
assigning migration roles and 
responsibilities to them 

504
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:07,760
accordingly, and instead 
proposes that all countries 

505
00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:12,600
must, I had the emphasis, must 
engage in migration governance 

506
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,080
together. 
Page 14. 

507
00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:17,720
So they're basically saying it 
doesn't matter where a migrant 

508
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,520
comes from, doesn't matter where
they might be going. 

509
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:24,520
People simply have to be 
untethered and allowed to roam 

510
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:26,680
wherever they want, why ever 
they want. 

511
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:31,000
And there's really no real 
direct or cogent role for 

512
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,800
national governments to play. 
They simply need to be part of 

513
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:38,640
the global partnership and 
cooperate under the UN 

514
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,240
philosophy. 
So you can see what this does. 

515
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:45,560
It basically paralyzes nations 
from intervening. 

516
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:50,120
And they're therefore they kind 
of lay back and the UN policies 

517
00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,000
just kind of keep the wheel 
turning. 

518
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:54,600
So you have what's going on in 
Britain and what's going on in 

519
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:58,640
the United States. 
Now we have another item of 

520
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,360
interest. 
This is sort of icing on the 

521
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:04,680
cake. 
This is the website of the 

522
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:10,080
Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society and
this is brought up as an aside. 

523
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,880
This is their 2020 report and 
we'll move on to the next slide 

524
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:16,520
from there. 
That fully explains the 

525
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:20,560
relevance here. 
As recent as 2020, the current 

526
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:24,960
director of the Department of 
Homeland Security, Alejandro Ali

527
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:28,760
Mayorkas, was a member of the 
board of directors. 

528
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:34,080
And of course right around that 
time, as the as the year 2021 

529
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:38,160
came around and the Biden 
administration was seated, he 

530
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:40,600
became U.S. 
Department of Homeland Security 

531
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:44,800
Secretary, and this has been 
cited in some quarters as a 

532
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:49,400
massive conflict of interest. 
Now he did evidently pull back 

533
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:53,040
from being on the board once he 
became Homeland Security 

534
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:57,240
Secretary, but under Obama he 
was Deputy Homeland Security 

535
00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,000
secretary. 
Plus he had one other immigrant 

536
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,600
related position. 
And when you read the Hebrew 

537
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:07,680
immigrant aid societies 
philosophy and paper that I 

538
00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:11,320
showed, and when you hear 
Mayorkas talk, there's nothing 

539
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:15,440
in his vernacular about 
defending the border, about 

540
00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:20,040
defending the United States and 
ensuring its safety, even though

541
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,600
he was a former U.S. 
District attorney, which is a 

542
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,240
federal prosecutor. 
Everything he talks about 

543
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:28,720
because of his Jewish 
background, his father was Cuban

544
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,120
Jew, and I believe it was the 
mother, Romanian Jew. 

545
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:34,480
And he came through Cuba. 
And he's an immigrant. 

546
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,880
He makes a big deal of that. 
But everything he talks about, 

547
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:40,520
guys, is the plight of the 
immigrant, the plight of the 

548
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:47,200
migrant, and virtually nothing 
about his job, 200,000 employees

549
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:51,040
under him at the DHS. 
And that is to defend and secure

550
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:55,760
the United States border. 
And so along with the UN 

551
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:59,600
policies, you have someone like 
that in charge in the US who 

552
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:03,120
sees immigration through the 
lens of his own background and 

553
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,760
his own upbringing. 
And that kind of negates the 

554
00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,239
whole idea of defending the 
border and being serious about 

555
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:11,880
it. 
So this is what we're looking 

556
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:13,480
at. 
You guys have any questions or 

557
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:17,719
remarks? 
Mark my my comment is if we look

558
00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:23,040
at the migration that's resulted
as that's come about as a result

559
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,800
of the war in Ukraine where 
nobody's too sure, but a figure 

560
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:30,600
of 8,000,000 has certainly been 
talked about 8 million people 

561
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:35,679
leave Ukraine as a result of the
fighting and migrate into Europe

562
00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:40,159
into UK. 
We start to ask a question was 

563
00:34:40,159 --> 00:34:44,880
the war in Ukraine orchestrated 
by Victoria Newland and her 

564
00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:49,400
friends And Boris Johnson has 
clearly got a big finger in the 

565
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:54,040
pie that basically that war was 
created to assist this mass 

566
00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:58,640
migration issue because what 
what was the statement you use? 

567
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,480
These people are agents of 
development. 

568
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,920
The migrants are being callously
used as agents of development 

569
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:09,760
for the Agenda 2030 goals. 
Well, that, that's it. 

570
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:14,120
And you know, so again, we've 
got to make the point that 

571
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:19,400
government policy and 
governments are the target, 

572
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:23,240
should be the target of our 
criticism here mainly. 

573
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:27,080
Yes. 
Yeah, OK, OK, let's leave that 

574
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,840
there and move on.

column extracts.co.uk. 
Now a reminder that on Sunday 

582
00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:59,200
this week we are hosting on 
behalf of organization for 

583
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:02,520
Propaganda Studies and 
Propaganda and Focus symposium 

584
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,080
called Silencing the Academics. 
And there's a number of 

585
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:08,760
academics that have been coming 
under attack over the last 

586
00:36:08,760 --> 00:36:11,600
number of years through the 
mainstream media and through 

587
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:15,840
their own academic institutions 
for the the way they have 

588
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,280
presented information on a wide 
range of topics. 

589
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:22,320
So that is on Sunday the 18th of
February beginning at 6:00 PM UK

00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:14,160
Now at 1:00 PM tomorrow we have

604
00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:18,360
Campbell and he's joined by Ted 
Walter from ic911.org. 

605
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,520
That'll be going out at 1:00 PM 
tomorrow. 

606
00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,360
Join us for that. 
But I just wanted to say, I was 

607
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:29,040
particularly shocked to see 
certain criticism that one of 

608
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,600
your guests, Mike, had an 
unusual hairstyle. 

609
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:35,520
We have Boris Johnson, of 
course, who who may appear as a 

610
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:41,320
mop on occasions, but I, I, I, I
thought we're not yet at the 

611
00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,480
stage where we're dismissing 
somebody from what they say 

612
00:37:44,480 --> 00:37:46,600
because of their hairstyle. 
Absolutely not. 

613
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:50,640
Well, what's this 10? 
This is moving on to Mark again.

614
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,280
We've proved the point today, 
Mark, because we're not too sure

615
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:59,600
what is news and what is Clown 
world as that that description 

616
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:01,800
is. 
So here was a serious slide 

617
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:04,160
we're looking at on screen and 
we're thinking it's still 

618
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:06,400
something to do with with an 
advert. 

619
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:12,840
But in fact, it's the CDC mark. 
Yeah, well, it is a little bit 

620
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,840
of clown world where clown world
meets news, right? 

621
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:21,160
Reality is a strange thing these
days, according to Barnes and 

622
00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,000
Noble, a clerk I talked to 
yesterday at one of the local 

623
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:26,200
outlets of that large nationwide
book chain. 

624
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:32,480
December 2023 was the release 
date as shown for the junior 

625
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,240
disease detectives, Operation 
Outbreak. 

626
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:39,000
And this is a booklet. 
They call it a graphic novel. 

627
00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:46,840
I call it a comic book put out 
by USDHHS, the CDC, the USDA and

628
00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:51,160
who Knew 4H, which usually 
sponsors, you know, equestrian 

629
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:55,280
events at county fairs. 
And what this is by all 

630
00:38:55,280 --> 00:39:01,120
indications, and I studied it 
quite a bit, is a way to reach 

631
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:05,240
the preteen and teen demographic
and convince them that health 

632
00:39:05,240 --> 00:39:07,720
authorities know what needs to 
be known. 

633
00:39:07,720 --> 00:39:11,920
They need not be questioned, and
that healthcare consists of what

634
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:16,080
those authorities prioritize and
promote, including vaccines. 

635
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:19,200
Just trust the science, trust 
the vaccines. 

636
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,760
If you want to be good 
detectives, learn from the CDC 

637
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,960
and help the CDC root out 
infectious diseases. 

638
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:30,080
Don't be the kind of detective 
that questions the DDCDC like UK

639
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,120
column might. 
You don't want to question them.

640
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:35,360
Be the kind of detective that 
doesn't ask too many questions 

641
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:37,880
to authorities, which isn't 
really a detective at all. 

642
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,720
But anyway, the foreword just 
says the following story is a 

643
00:39:41,720 --> 00:39:44,680
work of fiction, but real public
health threats and diseases are 

644
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,240
presented. 
The CDC hopes that this story 

645
00:39:47,240 --> 00:39:51,560
raises youth awareness of 
infectious diseases and so on 

646
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:55,280
and and the threats to public 
health health that they pose. 

647
00:39:55,800 --> 00:39:58,160
And it talks about the sponsors 
and whatnot. 

648
00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:03,480
But moving on from there, this 
is some samples of what you look

649
00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:06,960
at when you open this thing now.
One of the things that became 

650
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:10,320
evident during the. 
COVID scare and COVID, ocracy 

651
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,120
and all that. 
The bureaucracy that grew up 

652
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:16,280
around COVID was that they 
wanted to view infectious 

653
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:21,560
diseases as a overarching enemy,
and to fight that enemy is all 

654
00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:25,120
for one and one for all. 
So you take the vaccine, just as

655
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:29,200
you would be a good soldier, and
if you don't take that vaccine, 

656
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:32,360
you're being the kind of soldier
that might go AWOL, that might 

657
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:36,040
desert the troops, right? 
So you really don't belong in in

658
00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:39,520
polite society. 
So accordingly, we have in this 

659
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:45,360
graphic here that we're showing 
now a scene where the teens who 

660
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:49,800
are the characters within this 
graphic novel slash comic book, 

661
00:40:50,120 --> 00:40:54,640
are seeing marauding, slobbering
germs in the form of an enemy. 

662
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:57,920
Sort of like the Lord of the 
Rings coming over the hill and 

663
00:40:57,920 --> 00:41:01,200
they're shooting arrows at them 
and they're trying to prevent 

664
00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:04,400
them from breaching the 
drawbridge and entering the 

665
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:06,600
castle. 
And here we have one of the 

666
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:11,960
characters in this next slide 
and Influenza is shown as this 

667
00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:15,720
red haired, unibrow, demonic, 
greenish character, kind of 

668
00:41:15,720 --> 00:41:19,880
green like the Incredible Hulk. 
So individual germs in for 

669
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:24,160
individual diseases are shown as
individual kinds of ghouls. 

670
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:28,640
And this is one example. 
And here in this next one, just 

671
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:32,200
to outline more of the 
conceptual of what's going on 

672
00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:35,520
here, the conceptual framework, 
we have another one of our teen 

673
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,680
heroes, a character in the 
graphic novel. 

674
00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:42,440
He's running away from germs who
are in this case characterized 

675
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:49,440
as red insect like almost mantis
style beings that are chasing 

676
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:52,360
him and they're going to kill 
him and they're roaring behind 

677
00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:54,120
him. 
And then when you go to the next

678
00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:57,840
slide, you see that he finally 
makes it into a government lab. 

679
00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:02,320
He breaks his breaks his way in 
just in time and takes a flask 

680
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:05,800
of some kind of potion. 
He has no idea what it is. 

681
00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:08,040
It's not labeled and it's 
glowing. 

682
00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:11,480
It actually has a 
phosphorescence and he just 

683
00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:15,480
gulps it down. 
So the message is, you know, you

684
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:18,600
can trust the government's 
potions and concoctions so much.

685
00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:22,080
You need only just gulp them 
down without questioning. 

686
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:24,720
And then that disease in the 
form of a monster will stay 

687
00:42:24,720 --> 00:42:27,880
away. 
So this is what it's about. 

688
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:30,800
Now in the next slide we're 
going to look at the back cover 

689
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:34,920
of this. 
And this is my opinion guys, you

690
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:37,040
can tell me if I overreached on 
this. 

691
00:42:37,720 --> 00:42:42,280
To the left is the back cover of
the CDCHHS comic book that we 

692
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:45,240
just looked at. 
And to the right is from the US 

693
00:42:45,240 --> 00:42:49,120
sci-fi TV drama from the 1960s, 
The Twilight Zone with Rod 

694
00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:51,480
Serling. 
It's probably more than a 

695
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:56,400
passing resemblance there. 
And usually a vortex or vector 

696
00:42:56,600 --> 00:43:02,480
is associated at least commonly 
with with a hypnosis. 

697
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:06,960
And a pastor friend of mine, he 
he called this whole comic book 

698
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,960
idea, looking at it from a 
spiritual point of view, he 

699
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:12,400
called it subliminal 
indoctrination. 

700
00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:16,720
And so that's what the CDC has 
come out with. 

701
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:20,040
The book is about a character 
named Eddie who gets sick at the

702
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:24,800
fair, and then all the other 
friends of his who went to the 

703
00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:30,120
fair with him and also attended 
ACDC class with him as one of 

704
00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,600
their own get sick. 
One of their own soldiers if you

705
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:34,760
will get sick. 
Then they all go out and 

706
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:38,840
research how to make any better.
And in so doing they have these 

707
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:42,760
fantasies about medieval battles
and fantasies about being chased

708
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:46,400
by monsters. 
And so it's comical in a way, 

709
00:43:46,720 --> 00:43:49,760
but yet it seems like they're 
trying to reach a demographic 

710
00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:51,800
that maybe they think they 
haven't lost. 

711
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:55,040
I believe they think they've 
lost the narrative to a point. 

712
00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:58,200
This is my opinion, and they're 
trying to reach a demographic 

713
00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:00,680
that they can hang on to so they
don't lose the narrative 

714
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,920
altogether. 
And that's my take on it, and 

715
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,480
that's what it looks like. 
Any comments gentlemen? 

716
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:11,720
Well, Mark, I'll come back 
straight away and say for me 

717
00:44:11,720 --> 00:44:15,720
it's obvious that they're using 
applied behavioral psychology 

718
00:44:15,720 --> 00:44:20,160
wherever they can and the use of
cartoons is to target 

719
00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:24,040
principally younger people. 
But as as the UK column News has

720
00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:27,400
shown over a great many years, 
we're seeing more and more 

721
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:32,640
childish material being 
presented at adults in UK and 

722
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:36,520
the USA in order to convince 
them to follow government 

723
00:44:36,520 --> 00:44:39,240
policy. 
With regard to your your 

724
00:44:39,240 --> 00:44:41,200
comment, they're losing the 
narrative. 

725
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:45,480
I think this is absolutely true.
We are seeing a desperation in 

726
00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:49,160
these people. 
Boris Johnson, I think is so 

727
00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:53,000
angry, for example, with the 
Tucker Carlson interview with 

728
00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:58,000
Putin, because Boris knows 
millions and millions of people 

729
00:44:58,000 --> 00:45:01,360
have paid attention to that 
interview and what Putin has 

730
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:05,160
said and nobody's paying 
attention to Boris Johnson. 

731
00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:08,360
So these people are are really 
getting very nervous. 

732
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:11,720
But applied psychology is the 
meat of it. 

733
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:15,000
We've also reported, I can't 
remember the lady's name, but a 

734
00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:20,760
senior UN official who was also 
boasting that the UN was going 

735
00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:25,600
to use applied behavioural 
psychology in order to advance 

736
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:31,000
the vaccine programme worldwide.
So this stuff is ingrained. 

737
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:36,320
We know that UK had a major part
to play in the origins of 

738
00:45:36,320 --> 00:45:39,920
applied political psychology and
the behavioural insights team. 

739
00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:43,040
And clearly this has now gone 
worldwide. 

740
00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:45,840
So it has to be called out for 
what it is. 

741
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:49,000
And I'd say thank you. 
Thank you for that report, Mark.

742
00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:51,960
You've got another comment. 
Yeah, if I. 

743
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:56,400
One more thing I I found it at a
local library in large stacks, 

744
00:45:56,400 --> 00:46:00,960
and I also found out that it was
originally produced came into 

745
00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:05,960
existence in 2018, but it's 
being evidently reissued as a 

746
00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:10,640
new thing December of 2023. 
So it's interesting that this 

747
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:15,280
was created before the pandemic 
and it talks in there about 

748
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,960
hospitals being overwhelmed, 
about an infectious flu 

749
00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:22,280
spreading around the world, and 
about the streets of of major 

750
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:27,240
cities and other towns being 
almost empty before the COVID 

751
00:46:27,240 --> 00:46:31,440
thing came along. 
OK, thanks for that Mark Wright.

752
00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:35,600
Let's move to net zero and well 
last week. 

753
00:46:36,240 --> 00:46:39,480
Last few weeks this graphic has 
been doing the rounds. 10th, 

754
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:42,360
11th of February, big protest 
weekend stopped the war on the 

755
00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:46,880
motorists and farmers. 
This was a big meeting at 

756
00:46:46,920 --> 00:46:51,560
Orpington War Memorial and this 
was being described as a Sutton 

757
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:56,280
Cam blocking and well the media 
going a bit nuts about this 

758
00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:59,800
today because indeed they 
succeeded in doing exactly that.

759
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:04,520
So here is a tweet a a post on X
for action against Ulas. 

760
00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:07,400
This of course is with respect 
to the the Ultra Low Emission 

761
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:08,960
Zone. 
And the reason for this 

762
00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:12,800
particular protest was because 
this part of London was not 

763
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:15,600
subject to Ulas until the 
expansion. 

764
00:47:15,600 --> 00:47:18,600
And then basically overnight 
they found themselves covered by

765
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:21,280
it. 
So what they decided to do if we

766
00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:23,600
just pop that back on screen 
again, Stephanie, please. 

767
00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:28,080
What they decided to do was to 
go and to cover up the cameras 

768
00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:30,440
with their signs. 
That's what they did. 

769
00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:33,680
They took out effectively all 
the cameras. 

770
00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:37,280
Some of the cameras had already 
been physically taken out by 

771
00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,920
other people, not part of this 
protest prior to it. 

772
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:43,960
So some of the cameras weren't 
functioning, but they managed to

773
00:47:43,960 --> 00:47:47,760
cover up all the functioning 
cameras for the day and as a 

774
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:52,120
result people were able to drive
around the area for the day 

775
00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:56,000
without having to pay the the 
Euler's fine. 

776
00:47:56,800 --> 00:48:00,800
And some of the farmers were 
there with their tractors as 

777
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:03,480
well because taking advantage of
the fact that they didn't have 

778
00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:09,280
to pay the money to Sadiq Khan. 
So this this protest continues 

779
00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:12,880
and just to let everybody know 
that there's the next one is on 

780
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:17,120
the 17th of February, that's a 
Saturday 12:00 to 3:00 PM Beggin

781
00:48:17,120 --> 00:48:20,240
Hill anti ULA's protest. 
Have a look at the action 

782
00:48:20,240 --> 00:48:23,760
against ULA's Twitter feed to 
stay up to date with these. 

783
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:28,560
So hopefully these protests 
continue to build Now. 

784
00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:33,880
In the meantime, the UK has 
decided that Egypt is a good 

785
00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:38,680
country to partner with and they
have set up the UK Egypt 

786
00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:41,920
strategic partnership on this. 
It's a fully fledged 

787
00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:44,400
partnership, so we've got to be 
very excited about it. 

788
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,720
It establishes a fully fledged 
partnership which brings 

789
00:48:47,720 --> 00:48:50,520
technical knowledge, It brings 
together government bodies and 

790
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:54,400
industry representatives to 
build infrastructure projects, 

791
00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:57,880
it for furthers, commercial 
opportunities. 

792
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:02,120
It's all fantastic stuff and 
what they was signed in Cairo 

793
00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:06,000
last week. 
The key point here is that it 

794
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:08,720
builds upon as they I'm going to
use their words here, It builds 

795
00:49:08,720 --> 00:49:11,360
upon the UK and Egypt's 
commitment to the UN Sustainable

796
00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:15,760
Development Goals and action on 
climate change in November 2022.

797
00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:19,040
They say Egypt is, as COP 27 
President developed a 

798
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:22,600
Sustainable Urban Resilience for
the Next Generation initiative 

799
00:49:22,600 --> 00:49:26,080
in collaboration with the UN. 
And therefore this initiative is

800
00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:29,720
committed to achieving 
sustainable and resilient urban 

801
00:49:29,720 --> 00:49:34,360
cities, which the UK and Egypt 
are dedicated delivering via 

802
00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:35,920
this Memorandum of 
Understanding. 

803
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:39,880
Now I'm not quite sure why they 
needed to define this as urban 

804
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:43,120
cities. 
I'm not aware of any other kind 

805
00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:44,840
of cities. 
But anyway, OK, that's what they

806
00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:48,120
had to say. 
But this next announcement from 

807
00:49:48,120 --> 00:49:50,480
the UK government was 
particularly interesting. 

808
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:55,720
This is Earth Care. 
This is a joint UKEU Japan 

809
00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:58,040
initiative. 
It's a satellite, as you can 

810
00:49:58,040 --> 00:50:00,640
see, and the Earth care stands 
for Earth. 

811
00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:04,480
Sorry for the typo. 
Earth Colour, Aerosol and 

812
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:10,200
Radiation Explorer. 
Sorry, Earth, Cloud, Aerosol and

813
00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:12,920
Radiation Explorer, apologies 
for the typo. 

814
00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:15,880
And so basically, what are they 
saying about this? 

815
00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:20,040
This mission should lead to more
reliable climate predictions. 

816
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:22,600
Apparently it's going to address
the need for better 

817
00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:26,520
understanding of the interaction
between cloud, radiative and 

818
00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:30,520
aerosol processes that play a 
role in climate regulation. 

819
00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:35,920
And it's focused on research 
missions dedicated to specific 

820
00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:38,720
aspects of our planet's 
environment, carrying on board 

821
00:50:38,720 --> 00:50:41,960
leading edge technologies with 
the overall emphasis on learning

822
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,200
more about the interactions 
between components and the 

823
00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:47,680
impact of human activity is 
having on natural processes. 

824
00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:51,400
So I mean, we must applaud that.
Well, I'd rather. 

825
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:52,080
Didn't. 
Think so? 

826
00:50:52,240 --> 00:50:57,360
Yeah, I'd rather not, but it. 
Gets better because the UK is 

827
00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:02,440
the first major economy they 
claim to have report to report 

828
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:06,320
having emissions since 1990. 
So there's the graph that they 

829
00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:08,360
pushed out. 
This is more exciting news. 

830
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:09,920
I don't know why you're not 
excited about this. 

831
00:51:09,920 --> 00:51:12,920
Well, I was just going to say, 
is it a coincidence that we have

832
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:18,040
no industrial base to support 
the arms, the armed forces? 

833
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:21,520
Why? 
Why is this base been cut? 

834
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:25,040
We're now starting to see 
possible policies that explain 

835
00:51:25,040 --> 00:51:26,120
what's actually taking. 
Place. 

836
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:30,360
This is absolutely right and 
actually on the EU side of the 

837
00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:34,240
channel, they have just 
recognised or in fact they're 

838
00:51:34,240 --> 00:51:37,000
celebrating the fact that they 
have cut their industrial base 

839
00:51:37,480 --> 00:51:40,640
by a significant margin. 
I can't remember the the 

840
00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:43,800
percentage off the top of my 
head and that therefore they're 

841
00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:46,320
well on their way to meeting 
their Net 0 policies. 

842
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:49,720
But if we pop that one back for 
a second, you can see the UK 

843
00:51:49,720 --> 00:51:52,640
compared to the other major 
economies there. 

844
00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:56,360
They're particularly worried 
that the UK is one of only a few

845
00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:59,440
countries where emissions are 
falling. 

846
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:03,040
But let's bring the the graph on
screen here, Reductions in CO2 

847
00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:07,160
emissions among G20 countries 
since 2010. 

848
00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:10,280
And this is the source for this 
is apparently Global Carbon 

849
00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:12,400
Atlas. 
So they produced a nice little 

850
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:15,200
graph here which shows how well 
the UK is doing. 

851
00:52:15,840 --> 00:52:18,960
And well you can see that. 
Well, according to that, well, 

852
00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:23,400
this of course is from 2020. 
There's sorry from 2010 and they

853
00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:25,560
were talking about a longer 
period of time. 

854
00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:28,800
But since 2010, it looks like 
we've reduced our carbon 

855
00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:31,000
emissions according to the 
government at least or according

856
00:52:31,000 --> 00:52:35,000
to Global Carbon Atlas by what's
at about 38%. 

857
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:39,960
So that's pretty exciting and we
should all be celebrating this. 

858
00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:43,040
I mean we are witnessing the 
shutdown of our industries. 

859
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:46,840
We no longer have a steel 
industry in the UK as a result 

860
00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:50,840
of this policy, you less of 
course fantastic policy. 

861
00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:55,240
I hope everybody's appreciating 
the sarcasm in what I'm saying 

862
00:52:55,240 --> 00:52:57,720
here. 
But you know this is the this is

863
00:52:57,720 --> 00:53:01,520
the outcome and this is what is 
driving so much of the effects 

864
00:53:02,120 --> 00:53:05,400
of on our lives of what 
government is doing. 

865
00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:07,560
It's all net zero. 
That's at the back of it. 

866
00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:14,480
Yeah, Agenda 2013, net zero, all
part of the the same library. 

867
00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:18,600
And of course Sandy Adams, who 
will be with us on Wednesday, 

868
00:53:18,600 --> 00:53:21,400
has been talking about this 
subject for a great many years, 

869
00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:25,400
exposing it. 
Well, we're not worried about 

870
00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:28,720
CO2 in Ukraine because the 
bloodshed goes on. 

871
00:53:28,720 --> 00:53:32,160
But of course the reality is 
that things are very, very bad 

872
00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:37,720
now for Ukraine as they have 
have run out of men and they are

873
00:53:37,720 --> 00:53:40,440
running out of munitions, 
particularly artillery 

874
00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:45,720
ammunition, because the West is 
simply unable to supply their 

875
00:53:45,720 --> 00:53:48,720
needs. 
Because of course, excuse me, 

876
00:53:49,200 --> 00:53:53,200
and the industrial base has been
cut in the West and we're now 

877
00:53:53,200 --> 00:53:56,480
starting to see government 
surprised that they can't 

878
00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:59,640
actually produce shells. 
Now we're not saying we should 

879
00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:03,880
be able to produce all these 
munitions to support wars. 

880
00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:08,040
We we are taking this from a 
position of peace, but reporting

881
00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:11,880
what is taking place in a 
structured way, we have to point

882
00:54:11,880 --> 00:54:15,960
out what's going on here. 
So Ukraine now being deserted by

883
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:21,880
both the US and the EU and 
effectively the UK, because if 

884
00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:25,640
some money is coming through, 
the ammunition that they need is

885
00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:29,160
not coming through and this is 
now telling on the front line. 

886
00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:33,600
So at the moment, Russia is 
pressing forward right the way 

887
00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:39,640
across the the the front lines. 
And the thing which is now 

888
00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:44,680
obvious to see is that claims of
a frozen front are simply 

889
00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:48,520
nonsense. 
The Russians are being very slow

890
00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:50,560
and methodical in what they're 
doing. 

891
00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:54,840
But the key battle taking place 
at the moment is the telling one

892
00:54:54,840 --> 00:54:58,960
in this war, and this is Adika, 
which we'll just bring on 

893
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:01,400
screen. 
And as always, I give great 

894
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:05,280
credit to the online reporters 
I've chosen. 

895
00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:08,920
Weeb Union here. 
The title for this particular 

896
00:55:08,920 --> 00:55:10,680
map, which I'll explain a little
bit more. 

897
00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:17,440
And the moment is Adika end game
and the Russian armed forces are

898
00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:21,480
launching A flanking attack to 
encircle Ukrainian forward 

899
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:25,000
positions. 
Now, Avdivka is a highly 

900
00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:28,720
fortified city. 
For years and years the 

901
00:55:28,720 --> 00:55:32,200
Ukrainians have been building 
fortifications in this city. 

902
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:37,200
But what's now taking place is 
the Ukrainians from the top 

903
00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:40,400
right of your sorry, the 
Russians from the top right of 

904
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:44,560
your screen have penetrated the 
outer defences, and they have 

905
00:55:44,560 --> 00:55:49,520
now effectively cut the city 
into creating one major 

906
00:55:49,640 --> 00:55:54,800
cauldron, as the Russians call 
it, where if the Ukrainian 

907
00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:58,960
troops do not retreat, they will
be caught up in this cauldron 

908
00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:03,680
and either killed or captured. 
What is Zelensky doing? 

909
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:07,800
Well, having got rid of Zaluzny,
his trusted head of the armed 

910
00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:11,720
forces, and brought in Searski 
his yes man. 

911
00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:17,000
The aim of the Ukrainians is to 
bring even more troops in to try

912
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:19,840
and prop up this failing 
situation. 

913
00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:24,080
But of course the real sad point
is the troops are extremely low 

914
00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:30,880
grade with very little training,
and the mobilisation teams in 

915
00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:34,760
Ukraine are having huge problems
in getting men of proper 

916
00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:37,960
fighting age. 
So we've got elderly men, we've 

917
00:56:37,960 --> 00:56:41,320
got young men. 
It's also been reported that 

918
00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:45,640
people with injuries, even 
mental health problems, are 

919
00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:48,960
being dragged into the fighting.
And of course they're not going 

920
00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:51,800
to last long. 
And alongside we've got the 

921
00:56:51,800 --> 00:56:56,400
pitiful pictures of young women 
kitted out to go and fight the 

922
00:56:56,400 --> 00:57:01,160
Russians in this cauldron where 
they are going to die, adding to

923
00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:04,200
the horrific numbers that we've 
already seen. 

924
00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:09,320
So the last figure that UK 
column news reported was 410,000

925
00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:12,920
dead for the Ukrainians. 
We can't confirm that figure, 

926
00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:16,440
but we can say it makes sense 
with all the other reports. 

927
00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:20,280
Now, just to emphasize this 
battle a little bit more, this 

928
00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:25,000
is defence, politics, Asia. 
Slightly different style of 

929
00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:28,920
commentary, but all these 
commentators are using accurate 

930
00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:33,880
reports from the battlefield and
he's focused in here, showing 

931
00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:40,040
the Russian pincer into Abdivka 
City and how the movement 

932
00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:45,240
towards the northwest to the 
left of your screen is towards 

933
00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:50,480
the heavily defended industrial 
areas which form really the 

934
00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:52,920
Ukrainian main bastion to the 
north. 

935
00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:57,080
But the cauldron area being 
encircled is to the South of the

936
00:57:57,080 --> 00:57:59,040
lake. 
You can see to the right of your

937
00:57:59,040 --> 00:58:02,240
picture, and I do encourage 
people to go and have a look at 

938
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:08,600
these reports not only by 
Defence, Politics Asia and Weeb 

939
00:58:08,600 --> 00:58:13,400
Union, but also free Russia from
military summary channel and 

940
00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:15,520
rebar. 
Because you will be getting the 

941
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:19,440
facts of the battle contrary to 
the sheer nonsense put out by 

942
00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:22,480
the British Ministry of Defence 
and the BBC. 

943
00:58:23,120 --> 00:58:27,280
Now I'm just going to take us to
the Ministry of Defence because 

944
00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:31,080
all they reporting the facts 
that thousands and thousands of 

945
00:58:31,080 --> 00:58:34,720
Ukrainians are being slaughtered
and even more are going to be 

946
00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:39,400
slaughtered. 
No on the MOT Twitter or X page.

947
00:58:39,840 --> 00:58:42,280
What have we got? 
We've got a report about the 

948
00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:48,120
excellent trauma expertise that 
the UK is providing Ukrainians. 

949
00:58:48,120 --> 00:58:51,640
That's on the left of the 
screen, and the text image on 

950
00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:57,040
the right of the screen is the 
bizarre claim that Russia has 

951
00:58:57,040 --> 00:59:01,760
now run out of doctors inside 
Russia because of the extent of 

952
00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:07,160
its own casualties on the front.
This is completely 180° out from

953
00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:11,840
the truth and I think it's 
really just appalling to to see 

954
00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:15,080
what's being done here, the 
propaganda from the United 

955
00:59:15,080 --> 00:59:17,360
Kingdom and the Ministry of 
Defence. 

956
00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:21,120
But I'm just going to end on 
this, which somebody kindly 

957
00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:24,560
emailed through. 
We're back on a report from the 

958
00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:28,440
Telegraph and it says that 
soldiers have been told to 

959
00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:33,600
avoid, quote, Christian elements
in Acts of Remembrance. 

960
00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:37,120
And I was very interested in 
this because of course we see 

961
00:59:37,920 --> 00:59:41,880
we're consistently heading in 
what I regard as a demonic 

962
00:59:41,960 --> 00:59:45,440
direction with policy from the 
UK government. 

963
00:59:46,040 --> 00:59:50,120
But we shouldn't forget that it 
was only a few years ago that 

964
00:59:50,120 --> 00:59:55,240
Britain was proud to boast that 
we'd allowed satanic ceremonies 

965
00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:59,440
to take place on board His 
Majesty's warships. 

966
00:59:59,800 --> 01:00:03,000
So I'll just throw that one back
to you, Mark, because I know 

967
01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:07,000
that you're seeing this bizarre 
stuff unfolding. 

968
01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:13,160
Celebrating Satanic Things and 
monuments in in the United 

969
01:00:13,160 --> 01:00:16,000
States. 
Yes. 

970
01:00:16,000 --> 01:00:18,440
And not to take much time with 
it now, but we'll cover that in 

971
01:00:18,440 --> 01:00:19,920
extra. 
I want to reflect on that 

972
01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:21,200
briefly. 
I appreciate that. 

973
01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:24,680
OK, Mark. 
Thank you very much. 

974
01:00:25,400 --> 01:00:27,200
Well, we'll end to the news 
there. 

975
01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:30,960
Thank you, Mark, for joining us.
There will be an extra in a few 

976
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:34,320
minutes after the news. 
And I just want to end by saying

977
01:00:34,480 --> 01:00:38,560
a huge thank you to the people 
who support the UK column 

978
01:00:38,560 --> 01:00:42,360
financially because out of the 
multitude of our viewers, we 

979
01:00:42,360 --> 01:00:46,800
know this is still relatively 
few people, but we thoroughly, 

980
01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:51,240
well, we're so thank you for 
your support and it's your 

981
01:00:51,240 --> 01:00:54,000
financial support that keeps 
this channel going. 

982
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:57,360
So thank you very much indeed. 
We'll end there. 

983
01:00:57,600 --> 01:00:59,240
Thanks for joining us. 
Bye, bye.
