No submit, no bias, no censorship. I'm Dan Wooden. This is outspoken episode number three hundred and ten. And yesterday, very special one in the history of the talk radio genre in the United Kingdom as some of the best of politics, news and entertainment came together for a family funeral for the late great James Whale. Yes, there were tears, but James actually wanted a celebration and believe me, that is what we gave him. So I'm going to tell you more about it at the end of today's show, as we reveal today's

greatest Britain. So stay tuned for that. But breaking today, the UK's relationship with our most important ally now under threat as our dangerous Islamist pro-Palestinian and pro-Pakistani, Home Secretary Shavna Mahmood, is exposed as a hard-left extremist now trying to force through digital ID on the native population. Well, look, my long-term personal political view has always been in favour of ID cards. In fact, I supported the last Labour government's introduction of ID cards. The first bill I spoke in on in Parliament was the ID cards bill.

That's as more shocking video emerges of Mahmood's anti-white racism in the past, which has prompted Trump whisperer Laura Luma to speak out. The people that you see holding the English flag, most of the time, die my nephews will be the EDL and they are white and they're old male. My faith is the most important thing in my... I'll reveal why Shabna Mahmood's real goal is pushing through a draconian Islamophobia law in my digest next.

Then, analysis from Connor Tomlinson, the host of the brilliant Tomlinson talks on YouTube. Also coming up on the show today, Ben Habib speaks out as he is banned by both G.B. News and Talk TV. Even as Advance UK hits 30,000 members and security. viewers serious backing from Elon Musk. We'll show you why Alex Phillips says the ex-reform UK deputy leader needs medical help. A reform feud is sparked between Richard Tyson's dogged girlfriend Isabel Oakshot and new recruit Nadine Dorries over the insurgent party's position on Boris

Johnson and uniting the right. And Graham Linehan speaks out after his airport arrest for tweets. And I have to tell you, the difference between how Megan Kelly and the British Bash Corporation treated this interview couldn't be any more defined. Then, in the uncanceled after show on Substack, Prince Harry disgraces himself on his visit to the United Kingdom, overshadowing the King's ascension date with a disgusting public dig. Can you believe this, at his brother, Prince William, in front of a whole load of sick children? We're going to team up with the Royal News Network for all the latest on that. You can sign up at www. outspoken.live. Now, of course, we were pre-recorded yesterday because of James Wales funeral.

So the first greatest Britain and Junie and Jackass of the week will be announced at the end of the show. You can vote for the worst Britain in the world today right now on the live chat on YouTube. Here are your nominees. Dan Hodges, nominated by Kaz Quinn for being an absolute moronic disgrace after his criticism of Lucy Connolly. Beth Rigby, nominated by Matt Cass 48, who says Beth did her best in trying to go. with the ang our angie is a victim narrative nice try beth but you should go next and shabnamam moot nominated by just margaret one who says we have a muslim minister now in charge of the home office so get your votes coming in let me know your comments throughout the show i'll read out the

best before we go do stay with us today let's go so the UK now has an avowed anti-white and hard-left pro-Palestinian-pro-Pakistan Islam extremist as our Home Secretary, who also just happens to hate the English flag? Let that sink in for just a moment. You know, the people that you see holding the English flag most of the time, down my left in the ones will be the EDL, and they are white, and they're old male, and they're bad people,

and they want to divide our community. As Chris Parry pointed, when he was realised that Shabnamamu doesn't seem to like, England, English people or the England flag. This is awkward at best, career ending, at worst. But not in Slippery Starmes Britain, where such sentiments secured her the most important domestic political job. Indeed, and this one surprised me. Reform UK's Muslim Chairman's ear Yusuf even admitted those comments were a step too far. Posting on X, the new home secretary takes exception to white males holding the English flag.

Such rhetoric would be and resignation matter were it to be directed at any other group. And the hatred of our flag is a disgrace. She is unfit to serve. Now, I've got to tell you, as we come on air, the Trump administration is watching with growing horror, as this dangerous woman now tries to push through digital ID and an Islamophobia law that would smash free speech once and for all. And let's be honest, we don't have much of it anyway. So imagine what Mahmoud is really like behind closed doors,

given what she says in public. As Tommy Robinson put it, this is who Stama has placed as Home Secretary, a literal Islamist activist. Dare US government, I would stop sharing military information with these infiltrators ASAP. Now, this is the recently uncovered video that Tommy Robinson was referring to. Watch.

So many of the MPs, particularly on the government benches, had to stand up and say, I have received many emails from my constituents about this issue. So please keep up the pressure on your members of Parliament. Go to their advice surgeries, take 20 people with you, and ask them to justify their views on Palestine and on Gaza. And if they say they support Gaza and support the plight of the Palestinians,

ask them to evidence it and to say, take some action to show solidarity. That's how we can make a difference. Because Israel's actions, it's killing of children, it's bombing of schools and hospitals, must be condemned without equivocation. We know what they've done is wrong. If David Cameron fails to speak out, that is a moral outrage. He may stay silent, but we will never stay silent. So let out, I'm I'll write to the rule and tell this government we will not stay silent until the Palestinians are free. I repeat, that woman is now in charge of protecting our homeland. As today's guest, Connor Tomlinson of Tomlinson talks put it,

Britain now has a Pakistani Muslim Home Secretary presiding over a 700 plus Islamic network in the home office. She is in charge of immigration, counter-terrorism policy, and supervising the Pakistani grooming gang's inquiry. Expect to see more migration from the Muslim Third World, more prescribing of reasonable right-wing concerns about culture and identity, more siops telling you, don't look back in anger. Whenever a jihadist reads the Quran too closely and butcher's children at a pop concert, reluctance to explore the racial and religious motivations of the rape gangs, two-tier police seat between British patriots and Palestine protesters. The scale of treachery is unfathomable.

Now, Mahmood has been completely open, by the way, about how she is totally driven by being Muslim, even in Parliament. Watch. For tonight's motion, I will be voting against. But before I explain my reasons, let me say that the House knows that I am a Muslim. Those that know me well know that my belief in God and in my religion is not just a small part of my identity or simply a box that I tick on the census, but the defining characteristic of my life. And I am a Sunni too, Sunni born and Sunni raised, and since I've been old enough

to make my own mind up about these things, a Sunni by choice. And though there is a wide variety of opinion and practice within Sunni Islam, we can all agree that ISIL are not representative of our faith and they are not representatives of the Muslim. They are Nazi-esque totalitarians who are atlaws from Islam, who engage in indiscriminate slaughter and who murder any Muslim that doesn't agree with them. If you're different or if you disagree, you die.

Now, Trump whisperer Laura Luma, who is very influential in the Donald's orbit, has taken umbrage with Mahmood's appointment, writing, attention. The US can no longer trust the UK. It's time to recognize that the so-called special relationship between the US and UK has come to an end. We must stop sharing intelligence with UK via the Five Eyes intel relationship. Is what we get from the UK worth what we will now be giving to the jihadis and jihadi sympathizers? And she copied in Tulsi Gabbled. UK's traitor in chief Kirstama has just appointed the Islamic

terrorist supporters Shabna Mahmoud as UK Home Secretary. She now controls MI5, the United Kingdom's Domestic Counterintelligence and Security Agency. Mammud has said that Islam is the most important aspect of her life and it drives everything she has done. She has called white males the enemy, has called Israel an illegitimate government and has attended a globalize the infatada rally. Continuing to share intelligence with the UK is now presenting an Islamic terror threat to the US. So that's how our allies are looking at this appointment. And just remember the shocking new stats, by the way, that reveal in each of the past three years, more people migrated to Britain than to America. A country that, as Matt Goodwood points out, is 40 times larger by area

than the UK and has almost five times the population. So can we just all agree that Mahmood is an extremist in the home office with two main goals, which we now have to fight tooth and nail. So we've got introducing Digital ID, and we'll come to that in just a moment. But I think even perhaps more scary, enforcing a legal definition of Islamophobia, which could see you locked up for criticising her extreme religion. So cast your mind back to when Lee Anderson said this about London's Mayor Sadiq Khan, resulting in his... his suspension from the Tory party and eventual defection to reform UK. I heard the comments here. I heard the comments earlier he was making about Soella,

some of the comments she made earlier this week. And I don't actually believe that these Islamists have got control of our country. But what I do believe is they've got control of Korn and they've got control of London. And again, this stems with Korn. He's actually given our capital city away to his mates. We've got Stowe. Beware. Because if you let Labor into the back door, expect more of this and expect our cities to be taken over by these lunatics. Which, by the way, has happened, but I want to show you Mahmood's reaction to those comments. Watch. Comments that Lee Anderson, the Tory Member of Parliament made a few days ago were completely

unacceptable. It is Islamophobia. You need to call it what it is if you are going to be able to deal with a problem. And I think what's been the most disappointing thing over the last couple of days is the hesitancy in the Tory party to call this what it is, to call out racism for being racism. I think the Prime Minister, his Deputy Prime Minister and other senior members of the government are dancing on the head of a pin, trying everything they can to call out the comments but without calling them what they are. And I think that's wrong because if you can't name a problem, you can't really very much go about fixing it. Indeed, Shabna Mahmood has spoken publicly about so-called Tory Islamophobia in general

on multiple occasions, even in March last year. She said we talked about the huge issue of Islamophobia, the challenges and the opportunities facing our community. I can also confirm she has signed an early day motion in Parliament calling for the recording of Islamophobia as a distinct crime category. Now, this is all incredibly chilling. As rising Tory star Katie Lamb wrote today, it's getting harder and harder to tell uncomfortable truths in Britain. Labour's planned Islamophobia definition will make this worse. It will stifle

criticism of Islam and stop us from telling the truth about things like grooming gangs. It must not happen. We must fight back. And I want to watch her explanation as to why. You might have heard people talking about Islamophobia recently. Islamophobia or Islamophobia. Islamophobia. It's been in the news because the government is trying to introduce an official definition of it. This is a terrible idea. Harassing or threatening anybody for any reason is already against the law.

And it's horrible to hate a group of people for what they inescapably are, like their gender or race. But Muslims are not a race. Islam is a belief system and in a free society we must be able to criticise every idea and the people who believe it. And the law should never try to protect any group of people from the truth, even or especially if that truth is uncomfortable, like on the rape and grooming gangs. The men who prayed on them were predominantly Muslim.

One of the victims from Rujsbury was told by her rapist, I quote, we're here to fuck all the white girls and fuck the government. The government's secretive Islamophobia definition project is closely related to the all-party parliamentary group on British Muslims. Their Islamophobia report said free speech is just another form of racism and so is telling the truth about grooming gangs. This is horrifying and nonsensical because Islam is not a race.

Thanks to the hard work of my conservative colleagues like Fair Coutinho and Nick Timothy and the Free Speech Union, Angela Raina agreed to open the consultation briefly to the public but they delayed publication of the results because ordinary people got in touch to oppose the plans. The government labelled these responses, spam. They're afraid of the public and afraid of democracy. When ordinary people tell them what they think about their Islamophobia definition, they try to hide it. There will be other consultations like this one,

including one on settlement and indefinite need to remain later this year. People must keep making their voices heard. And of course we must. But is there any chance of stopping this Islamophobia runaway train, given that this woman is now in charge. I'm just here. It's Saturday on the moon, a peaceful protest, outside of a same-officement store here in central Birmingham. And it's half-past three, and the store has actually just shut as a result of the peaceful protest. That's about four and a half hours of a business that's energy is using for supporting goods

from the Israeli settlement, which are illegal under international. on the law to make all other stores trade settlement foods that they so that they do not support people who have broken international law. There are a few of its response today just here in central Birmingham. It's incredible to see and the passion here of all of the people in campaigning is incredible to see. I repeat we now have an extremist as home secretary. This matters. The mainstream media aren't talking about it at all.

Now, Mahmood's other goal is to force digital ID on the native population. using the excuse it will stop the boats which of course is a complete fallacy meeting with our five ice partners yesterday she used her first full day in the home office to argue that exact point to the regime media digital ID in future in order to one of the reasons to be to tackle migration well my my long term personal political view has always been in favor of ID cards In fact, I supported the last Labour government's introduction of ID cards. The first bill I spoke on in Parliament was the ID cards bill, which the then Conservative Lib Dem Coalition scrapped.

So I have a longstanding position, which anybody who's familiar with my... Because it wasn't in the manifesto, was that a mistake? Well, I have a longstanding position of my own, which those who are familiar with my political track record will know that that is something that I've always supported. Yes, we know you have. That's why we're terrified. As Bernie Spofferth responded, UK Home Secretary pushing for digital ID

pretending it will stop illegal migrants from working. In reality, it will stop UK citizens openly criticising government policy, including illegal migration. There will be no escape. The plan was agreed. And Neil Oliver added, It's never about what they say it's about. Migrants are brought to Britain to make Indigenous Britain's desperate for the threat to go away.

Q digital IDs. Oven-ready solution cooked up before the first rubber dinghy arrived. Digital IDs are for state control of taxpayers. And you know what's most shocking? Mood, not the only extremist promoted in this latest reshuffle now meant to be in charge of our security. With Labor's new policing minister,

unbelievably, having previously worked on the campaign to wait for it, defund the police. Gido Fawkes reported, what about all that weekend briefing that crime will magically come to an end because Shabna Mood is Home Secretary now? On the 27th of October 22, not even that long ago, Sarah Jones, who was shuffled to policing from trade over the last weekend, arranged a meeting in Parliament with representatives from Stopwatch, a coalition which seeks to hold the police to account. Stopwatch campaigns to defund the police and withdraw consent to policing. So again, I know this is mad, but let's just get this clear. We have a policing minister whose policy in 2022 was to defund the police. She's working for Shadna Mahmood. Meanwhile, our police are held bent on cracking down on citizens and citizens. And

citizen journalists, including, wait for it, for calling someone a Muppet. Watch. Sat around there all this time, yet you decide to come and talk to me when I'm leaving. Okay. Well, look, if you have to know you back for me, you're under arrest for Section 4A public order, friends. Do we put, just give us your camera? I'll get a minute.

I'll let's play the second. Listen, all I'm going to say is, do you guys really want to do this? Yes, we do. Right. You're arrested me for what offence? Public order. Public order for what, seven pictures? Put your answer you back.

No, no, no, no. It's not in relation for that. We're not in a minute. Are your body cam one? Are you recording? All right. Can you identify yourself, please? All here.

Page 2. 870. Sergeant. 1823. 1823. Yeah. Is this really necessary? At the minute, we don't know if you're carrying anything that might harm us.

At the minute, we don't know if you're carrying anything that might know anything about you. Oh, that's fair. See your face, so just out of precaution. All right. Let me just speak. That's a fair comment. I'll let you have that.

But I don't have anything what's going to arm you. Every says after we're still, mate. And I'm actually just going to go in the lobby, because it's a beautiful lobby. I'm going to get some, because I ain't got any stills. My colleague can tell you the circumstances for why you've been arrested? Am I being arrested or being detained? Arrested? Arrested?

Yes. Did you hear the caution? Do you know with the caution again or are you happy? Tell me what I've done. Tell me what I've done. There's been a member of the public who you've apparently been shouting at and calling him a Muppet. Right. A Muppet, yeah.

And. You caused him alive under stress. Well, I'm going to be straight with you guys now. Don't forget you under caution. I can feel you shaking. I can feel shaking. Calm down. Calm down.

You are shaking. Right. You've got your rights. I'm going to tell you now. Shall we? Can we? Yeah. Calling somebody a muppet.

Yep. Hon on the heels of Graham Linnahann being arrested by five armed cops for three tweets. That poor bloke has been arrested by all of those coppers for calling someone a Muppet. As Alison Pearson, who's also. had her own issues with the police over tweets, put it, Britain in 2025. Police arrest a man for calling someone a Muppet. It caused her distress, apparently. Officers have no business trying to eradicate offence from our society. They're not guardians of morality and manners. Solve some crimes, you Muppets. But again, I stress, with an extremist like Shabna Mahmood in the home office,

there is very little hope of that. Now, Connor Tomlinson is here. Connor, our American allies are looking over the Atlantic in a gast at the fact that Shabna Mahmood is now responsible for protecting our homeland. Yeah, I've spoken to appointees in Trump administration, Dan, that seem to think that the motherland has fallen. And that opinion has persisted for quite some time. A few months ago, back when the Home Office under Ovet Cooper

and the Islamic Network, remember 700 Islamic activists currently control counter-terror and immigration policy in our country, when they put cultural nationalism on a list of right-wing extremist-terrorist beliefs, I slid that across to a representative at the State Department and said, what do you guys think about this? And they said, actually, the real extremists, of course, are those betraying Britain throwing open its borders to unassimilable jihadists and prescribing very sensible opinions about the threat that this poses to the continuity of our culture, our

identity and our civilisation. And after Nigel Farage recently testified before the House Judiciary Committee and explained how Britain is becoming something akin to woke North Korea, persecuting mothers like Lucy Connolly while allowing violent criminals out of prison early, to make more space for people who make imprudent tweet or call middle-class, lefties, a bunch of Muppets, America's looking pretty closely at us and reassessing its strategic relationship with us going forward. There was also a State Department report recently that got Keir Stama's number because he had taken umbrage calling, being called two-tier Keir. And so, whether it was a civil servant or Stama himself, had directed the Science and Technology Department

to contact social media outlets like TikTok and alter their algorithms and censor content on their platform that had accused illegal migrants being fighting age males and had spread two-tier narratives about justice, policing and the Prime Minister. So they are so sensitive about reputation damage suffered by their regime client groups, illegal migrants, foreign criminals, and the illegitimacy of their own position in government that they are going around censoring not just Brits but now Americans and so the State Department is going to step in. And Connor, two of this woman's passion projects are, I believe, two of the real reasons behind everything Slippery Stama is doing with Tony Blair pulling the strings. And of course, it's digital ID, but also this Islamophobia definition, because there was some hope, wasn't there, Connor, when Rainer was forced out, maybe there will be some type of rethink, given the pressure coming from the US.

But, I mean, Shabna Mahmood is someone who has made it her absolute mission, Connor, for her entire time in Parliament to ensure that Islamophobia is illegal. And by the way, her definition of what Islamophobia is is incredibly weak, given that she was so critical of the comments made by Lee Anderson, which I don't think got even close. I mean, she would have had him locked up for that, Connor. This is our home secretary. This is what we're having to fight.

against. Well, the definition of Islamophobia is actually really strong, Dan, because the purpose of the definition is to criminalise criticism of Islam. So it's meant to be deliberately broad enough to cast a net that ensnares its enemies while allowing its allies to walk through. Bear in mind, for the people who don't know, the all-party parliamentary definition of Islamophobia that was officially adopted by the Labour Party when Angela Rainer was, I believe she was head of the party at the time, and was also co-sponsored by West Street, now the sitting health secretary, was, quote, Islamophobia is a kind of racism rooted in racism that targets Muslimness or perceived Muslimness.

So it's this kind of circular definition of a woman is anyone who identifies as a woman. But contained within this definition, as Katie Lamb pointed out, is one, the premise that Muslims are a race, a super tribe, an Amur, as Muhammad himself would have said, as Ian Hussi Ali has described in heretics, and two, the idea that the grooming gangs and discussions about the Pakistani Muslim composition of these gangs, are themselves racist. To discuss the grooming gangs in an honest fashion is racist.

Now, bear in mind, as I pointed out in my tweet, Shabana Mahmoud taking over from Yvette Cooper means she is going to appoint the chair of the government's much-delayed grooming gangs nationally backed inquiry. So this is going to take place at the local level. It's not going to be a national statutory inquiry. It will have statutory powers, but it won't be centralized. And the chair from the home office will now be appointed

by Shabana Mahmood, probably on the advice of the same. Islamic network, with whom she has ethnic and religious solidarity, and, of course, who have been softening, prevent strategy to tackling Islam, because they, members have said, to target Islam is itself Islamophobic. And even though you said, Dan, you were hoping that Angela Raina's departure from the Department of Housing, leveling up in communities would mean that Islamophobia definition was scrapped. While she was there, of course, she has much delayed the release of the findings of the public consultation, which I contributed to, as did many people. Nick Timothy led the charge on that campaign, doing excellent work. But she's been replaced by Steve Reed.

Steve Reed, the former Defrere secretary who wanted to rob the graves of Britain's farmers, who is now, I mean, very stupid man, overzealously going to outsource his duties to the same civil servants who think that policing Islamophobia is an absolute necessity. And just to give you a quick summation of the kind of character that Shabana Mahmood will demonstrate in her Muslim faith. Number one, being a Sunni or a Shia doesn't matter because both of them want a caliphate. They're just squabbling over who has the right of succession to lead it. And two, when she attended an Iftar with Kirstama, it was with a chap that unheard had revealed was a name called Musadar Ahmed. Musadar Ahmed has all sorts of insidious connections to Islamist

organisations. And Shabana Mahmood herself once attended a Muslim Council of Britain event. And the Muslim Council of Britain, via their Centre for Media Monitoring, had previously said that Islamism is a nonviolent political movement and that Jihadi John shouldn't be described as a terrorist. And they have been pushing the Islamophobia definition and have been trying to influence the consultation. So this is an invidious network of Islamists that currently control Britain. And so I don't blame America for being scared of it. No, indeed. And then, Connor, can we just also please acknowledge the fact that she thinks people holding the English flag outside? St. George's flag are horrible white racist men. You know, if you fly that English flag,

you're clearly just a member of the EDL in her world. Yeah, I should also note as well, by the way, Dan, Steve Reid also backed the Islamophobia definition. But on the flags, I'm not surprised because there's a reason the English flag isn't flying around Birmingham or Luton or Leicester or any of the other places that have been colonized by the denizens of the third world with whom she shares a religion. It's not their flag either. They have not a similar They will never assimilate, they do not want to assimilate. As Shabana Mahmoud has said, she is not here to govern as a member of the British tribe, she is here to govern as a Sunni Muslim and the daughter of Pakistani immigrants.

Just like, funnily enough, the rest of the Biradiri clan that currently control the Home Office, like Sabrina and Sara Khan did for ages. Like Sajid Javid's brother, Baz Javid, who for some reason is in charge of our immigration policy, despite having ruined it for a very long time and not been sacked. Like all the rest of the Home Office Islamic Network that currently run the Home Office, We should not have a single Muslim in a position of British government. Islam does not belong in Britain, as I recently said on a G.B. News interview with Stephen Edgington that very nearly got me cancelled, I'm sure.

It just is a foreign ideology that has no place in our politics or our culture, and people that are trying to advance it, whether through government, whether through cultural institution, or whether standing on stage with a bunch of Hamas supporters chanting to globalise the interfada, any of those people do not belong in a position of prominence in public life, and they certainly don't belong in my country. If you want to practice Islam, go elsewhere. Breaking right now, a huge right-wing media war has broken out between Ben Habib and both G.B. News and Talk TV. With the new leader of Advance UK, the party, which remember is now backed by the world's richest and most powerful man in Elon Musk and has the support of

Tommy Robinson saying that since he took over, that party, He has been blacklisted. Now, this is absolutely fascinating, given that for a very long time, Ben Habib, who you will remember up until last year, as the deputy leader of Reform UK, before his fallout with Nigel Farage, was one of the most popular personalities on both GB News and Talk TV, appearing multiple times across the week on both networks' most popular shows. Watch. six percent they couldn't get it through and every sane-minded individual in this country knows that welfare and benefits are through the roof but france sends us another one in return and the

one that they send us is actually now in the united kingdom legally so there's absolutely nothing you can do about it um it's actually the legalization of illegal migration through the back door follow the trajectory of this abhorrent series of crimes that has taken place across the United Kingdom, what you will see is the pattern of communities repeatedly turning a blind eye to this criminality. Keir Stama said, if I were ever to become Prime Minister, I would align us so closely with the European Union that people wouldn't be able to tell the difference whether we were in or out. People coming into our country, mostly young, as often pointed, to that fighting age, young men.

That any form of immigration, and this is going to make people's eyebrows rise, including Joe's, no doubt, but any form of immigration is an admission that you can't deal with issues in your own country on your own. And I know from my time at both stations, Ben Habib was one of the most popular guests with viewers. But today, Habib has now confirmed

and posted on X that talk TV and G.B. News have cancelled me. Were these not the channels for free speech? He asks, did they not set out their stall on the basis that no one would be cancelled? What did I say that offended them? Was a racist, xenophobic, homophobic, misogynistic? Did I express myself in a way which was repugnant to their audience? Of course not. What they loathe is that I am challenging the Reform Party and Nigel Farage. He has GB News in his pocket and huge influence at talk. Last week, he was in Washington making the case for free speech while his channels were busy cancelling me. Well, guess what? Advance UK and I will go over their heads directly to the British people. We reached our target of 30,000 members by doing just

that. We are now well north of 30,000 and rising. We will be principled and resolute. The more they seek to muzzle us, the louder we shall become. Habib's cancellation, as you can imagine, has caused another civil war on the right. Sophie Corrin went public to say that GM News and talk TV were now no better than the BBC. But Alex Phillips, a close ally of Farage and a talk presenter, said he's gone weird in reference to Habib. When Shy Phillips challenged her saying, now, you just need to support him better, Alex Phillips suggested that Habib might need medical help, saying, or the NHS should. However, Julia Hartley Brewer, on X, from Israel today, writing,

stop being ridiculous, Ben Habib. No one is in anyone's pocket and no one has cancelled you. Get a grip. But Rupert Lowe, the head of Restore Britain, thinks that is untrue. He says he's very disappointed to read this and says, I certainly haven't been invited on G.B. News for a long time. that prompted our friend Father Calvin Robinson, who will be here tomorrow, to say you two are going to have a very difficult time of it. A particularly rich knight of the realm who was backing G.B. News is the same person backing Nigel Farage, the spectator, unheard, arc, and recently attempted to purchase the telegraph. He has invested money in America to gain political endorsements from the administration there. See last week's event in D.C. as an example. G. G.B. News was never a business.

sinking cash into it. This has always been about political power and influence. The centre right of British politics is in his pockets. You find yourselves on the outside of that, so doors will be closed to you, more power to your elbow. And then in the past hour, he has specified that he is talking about Sir Paul Marshall, who he says is taking over the centre right in the UK. And he says, why would George Soros provide him with $50 million to start his hedge fund? We have been manipulated by dark forces. And of course, I must point out that Paul Marshall, who does now run unheard, the spectator, G.B. News, was formerly a Liberal Democrat and obviously hired Michael Gove,

someone on the left in this country to edit the spectator, and they immediately endorsed Kamala Harris to be the president of the US. Richard Taylor of Advance UK though has called on GB News and Talk TV to change their position writing home of free speech

and the people's channel year right truth is we don't need them and our voices will be heard as evidenced by the growth of the party in just two months our collective voices together with Ben Habib

and the many wonderful independent podcasts out there have proven that we are advancing and they will not be able to ignore us Richard Shaw went further writing what a surprise Gb News and Talk TV are exactly like the rest of them. They have been bought out by the establishment

just like Nigel Farage and Reform UK. This of course comes as no shock to me, but I hope it comes as a shock to those who didn't know. Nigel has sold reform out. G.B. News has sold out. If it weren't free Lon Mask and X, we would all be in the dark. Forty-four billion pounds wasn't the price for Twitter. It was the price for free speech. We are the media now. But of course there is another side of the argument. June Slater, who is now a Farageist, very supportive of the Reform UK leader, says the suggestion that Nigel Farage has such influence is ridiculous. She then said to Ben Habib, you're not sticking to what you're good at, you prefer attacking reform. The viewers want to see you for your political insight, your enormous knowledge on

Brexit, your calm delivery at rebuttals, not moaning about reform. It's boring to a lot of viewers. Now, of course, there is a major reason why Nigel Farage, why GP News, why Talk TV are freaking out, why they have absolutely cancelled Ben Habib. And it's because Advance UK has the support of one of the most important and powerful men in the world, Elon Musk, who has gone public again today after Russell Brand's interview with Tommy Robinson, writing, it's time for real change. And we remember the background, Farage, and Musk were at Mar-a-Lago with Nick Candy in January.

They were fully expecting Musk via X to pump money into Reform UK. Reform UK needs money badly. That hasn't happened. And it feels like Musk will be prepared to put his own coin into Advance UK. So let me bring in Connor Tomlinson of Tomlinson talks on YouTube on this. Conor, look, the reality is, it's all well and good for Julia Hartley Brewer, a friend of mine, by the way, to say, you're not cancelled Ben, Habib. Well, why has he not been on? I mean, the reality is, Connor, he was one of the most popular guests on both channels. I know that.

He was beloved by the audience. He got a bigger mailbag than most guests on GB News and Talk. I can vouch for that. He is clearly massively relevant to the news at the moment, because he's launched a party that has gained 30,000 members in two months. That's faster than virtually any other political party in British history. And he has the backing of Elon Musk. That was considered wall-to-wall news earlier in the year when Elon Musk gave that backing to reform UK. So I have a very simple question.

To Julia, to Alex, to GB News, to talk to it. If he hasn't been banned, then why the hell hasn't he been on? So I have a few speculative reasons for this, Dan. The first would be, I wonder if there's a producer or there was a production meeting that said that in anticipation of Advance UK registering as a formal political entity, they're going to have to abide by

off-com regulation at some point that says that you only portion a set amount of time to each of their placement in the polls. And Advance UK, and this is not a slight to anyone who has joined and would like to see yet another flower bloom on the British right, it isn't polling yet.

It's just beyond having the support of Tommy Robinson and Elon Musk, it's not a political entity, so to speak. So perhaps the stations don't feel the need to comply with Offcom Law to mandate any time. That's the most charitable reading I can give. To June Slater's claim, and you can defend Farage, if you like, if you're a loyalist, understandable, but the idea that Farage doesn't have any sway over GB News when he is their headline act, sorry, but that is laughable. I mean, it's insanity.

If Farage doesn't like, yeah, if Farage doesn't like Ben and, you know, the feud between them has been very bitter, and I consider Ben, you know, he's a gentleman, he's always been very kind to me. I would say that if you would like advance to sort of take off as a rival to reform, you know, don't talk about reform. I mean, one of the things that sank Ronda Santis actually was being disparaging towards Donald Trump. So maybe just, you know, exist as an entity on your own rather than attacking reform. But I wouldn't be shocked if Farage, if it had been brought up, had said, well, don't have Ben on. because all he ever does is attack me. So it's not impossible that that was said. Again, that's entirely speculative. As far as the tone of the likes of GV News and talk, I mean, I was once blacklisted from talk for a short amount of time because one producer didn't like me very much internally and it took a host to say, well, that's not, you know, network policy, we'll rectify that to get me to go back. As far as GV News goes, I have been told by someone very high up that I am, quote, a legal liability. And so not, every host pays attention to the fact that I have that status. And so that's why I've been

interviewed by Steve Edgington and had other hosts say, you can still come on my show, don't worry about it. But it is why I am not on very frequently. And so it could be that Ben is a legal or political liability despite his popularity with the viewer base. And so there has been an executive decision to exclude him. All of this, again, is speculative. I think it would be wise, given the viewing figures that Ben gets on his clips and how erudite he is in his debates, if there is a unspoken blacklist against him, lift it and allow the viewers to decide. Absolutely. I mean, I think he's a huge loss. But I totally agree with you to suggest that Farage does not try and influence the editorial policy of GB News as for the birds. I mean, we know

for an actual fact when it came to the Rupert Lowe situation and the fact that he had been reported to the police by his ear use of the then party chairman for Hurti words, Farage not only lobbied behind the scenes to stop Gb News covering the story, but he also went public criticizing G.B. News in the mail on Sunday and then live on air on G.B. News saying that they should not have covered the story at all. Well, I mean, that's astonishing to me. But again, G.B. News has just made a decision that Rupert Lowe has gone from being one of their favorites, one of the most popular, to someone that just doesn't exist. But this is something G.B. News does a lot. Of course, during my time there. The issues were over Katie Hopkins and Tommy Robinson, who were cancelled from a network

level on the channel. But I think the real change, Connor, and this is something that I think will end up coming back to haunt GB News. And by the way, as I always say, as a caveat, you know, there are still some great people at GB News. And of course, GB News does some things much better than Sly News and the British Bashing Corporation. However, so much has changed since I was there because it does now feel like the propaganda arm of a political party. That was never my understanding of what the channel was going to be. So I spoke to someone at GB while I was in Washington, D.C. last week for NatCon, and one of the hosts, and they said to me,

I should stop being so critical of reform because there are only one shot. And I said, look, I will permanently be on the outside of the tent, because I don't want to be a G.B. News host, and I don't want to be a politician. So I'm happy to apply carrot and stick. I'm happy to reward them when they do good policies, like saying to ban the Muslim Brotherhood, ban the burqa, be net emigration, you know, all the positive announcements, and apply the stick when the likes of David Ball says we're a nation of immigrants, you know, put them back on track. And the host asked, is it, is it obvious that I'm pro-reform? Because I tried to be a balanced journalist. And I was like, yeah, you're a good host.

You know, I like your show, but it's really obvious that you pro-reform. Like, there's no impression that G.B. News would, you know, carry water for the Labour Party, or is even, even thinks that Kemi Badock is within a whisker of ever coming into power. And part of that, and Calvin has raised a real concern here, is that one man does have an outsized presence on all of the parties and all of the media outlets on the right. Bear in mind, Paul Marshall, I don't know him. I think his politics are far too soft for mine. And, you know, Winston's a very polite chap. So, hey, maybe he's a good dad. But he is looking to buy the Telegraph. He's undoubtedly going to put Michael Gove as the editor of that. So I wonder who takes over from the spectator. He installed Michael Gove as

the editor of the spectator. He controls unheard. Despite the nice, you know, restaurant they've got in Westminster, their output, Mary Harrington aside, is a bit too tepid for me. And he was recently at the meeting with J.D. Vance, with a bunch of other rising stars in the Tory party. including Nick Timothy, Rob Jemrick, Katie Lamb, and Chris Philp. So he seems to be inserting himself into all of the media ventures and all of the political factions that are vying to be the next government. And Connor, he was a live damn. Just please let that sink.

And, you know, this is a centrist in a whole load of ways, who is moving GB News to the centre, who has moved to the spectator. to the centre. And people do have to start waking up a little bit. They might like a lot of people on GB News, but the only way that you get true independence actually is through platforms like ours. And I'm not just saying that. But at the end of the day, most people say to me, Conor, they can tell since I've been on outspoken that I am so much more free than I ever was on GB News. And of course, that is the case, because I'm owned by no one now, apart from my

viewers who might support my substack. That's it. am owned by no one. And unfortunately, what you see on TV News, those presenters have to weigh up so many factors. What does Paul Marshall think? What does the Legatum Institute think? What does Nigel Farage think before they even open their mouth? That's before you get to the limitations that are put on by offcom. By the way, Ben Habib has just responded to Julia Hartley Brewer. Let me show you this, and this is very interesting. He says, Julia, you and I exchange private texts, and you know talk banned me. I evidenced it to you I suggest a degree of

introspection before leaping onto the airwaves so this is getting dirty this is getting messy but at the end of the day I repeat Ben Habib has been banned because otherwise he would have been on GB News and Talk TV

both went wall to war when Elon Musk back to Reform UK the fact that he's back to new political party in this country sure I understand what Connor's saying they're not registering in the polls yet, but that's not the point. On most polls, neither is Jeremy Corbyn and Zara Sultanate. The fact that Musk has backed Advance UK is story enough alone,

is a story enough alone to, at the very least, interview Ben Havid. A Civil War has engulfed Reform UK over Boris Johnson. With Richard Tice's dogged girlfriend, Isabel Oakshot, who he uses as an attack dog to go against those in the party who he wants to send a message to going public with her criticism of Nadine Dorries.

Remember Nadine is the big new recruit to Reform UK who Nigel Farage has trumpeted as a future minister and as someone who is going to solve their issues in terms of a lack of experience. But Isabel posted on X,

Sorry Nadine Dorries, but Reform UK does not need Boris Johnson. He is damaged goods, worse. He doesn't believe in what the party stands for. Awful. Now that was a result of this interview that Nadine Dorries gave with The Daily Mail and her colleague Sarah Vine and Peter Hitchens suggesting that there was the potential for some type of alliance between Boris Johnson and Reform UK. Watch. I would say my answer would be that I think we need all the political talents on the right of centre putting their shoulder to what needs to be done for the country that would be my answer how does that work in reality how does that look I have no idea but I think if you start from the point that you need everybody with a passion to make this country a better place

at the helm, then I think that's a good place to start. Couldn't that be very awkward? Couldn't that be very awkward for two reasons? One, probably the two biggest egos in modern British politics are Nigel Farage and Al Johnson. Yeah, I mean, it's not going to happen. I mean, the reality is it's not going to happen. I know for a fact, because remember, I was a colleague of Nigel Farage for a very long time,

and I had conversations when there were discussions about Boris Johnson joining G.B. News. Nigel cannot stand Boris. Cannot stand Boris likes him as a character, but thinks he's a complete mess of a man who never commits to anything and it doesn't do any good. So Nadeen is barking up the wrong tree there, but what's interesting, this has exposed really now the big divide in the party. And I know this is a fact I've spoken to so many senior people in the party who are furious about Nadine being ushered in and about Nigel saying there are going to be other people ushered in because they want safe seats, they don't want safe seats given to Tories who they view as traitors to the country. And one of those people who has also spoken out,

and we know he wants a safe seat more than anything, he'll do anything for a safe seat. It's Matt Goodwin, who has written on his substack, Boris should never be allowed anywhere near the People's Party revolt. Reflections. on a rumor that will die, and he posted, so no, sorry, Boris Johnson should never, ever, ever be allowed anywhere near the people's revolt, because what this so-called conservative did was betray his own voters and send the country firmly on a course toward all the managed decline and delivery economy you see around you today. Lastly, there's also a crucial message in all this for Reform and Nigel Farage, who are attracting the very people, Boris Johnson,

and the Tories cut a drift. While reform is currently riding high, by promising the British people an end to the unpopular and extreme policy of mass immigration. Should they fail to deliver on this? Should they capitulate to big business and globalist lobbyists, then without a doubt they'll suffer the same fate as Boris Johnson and the Tories ruining their entire legacy in the process. And who knows where that will leave an already angry, disillusioned and feebrile country? Boris Johnson very nearly wrecked Britain and has rightly been cut out of the people's campaign to fix it.

I just hope everybody else has learned the lesson. So look, Connor, it is very interesting. Connor Tomlinson from Tomlinson talks, it's very interesting for me to talk about what's going on behind the scenes in Reform UK. Again, lots of people think this makes me a critic of Reform UK or an enemy of Reform UK. Let me just clarify, that is absolutely not the case.

Like you, I am all for Reform UK, when they do the right thing, when they launch a mass deportation policy, when they want to ban the Muslim Brotherhood, when they say they'll ban the burq. But when Reform UK do the wrong thing, like bringing in wet Tories, like Jake Berry, like saying they'll lift the two-child benefit cap, like saying they're going to raise a whole load of taxes, I will speak out against them. That's my position.

I am an independent journalist. I am a propagandist for no party. But I think my role in a way is important because obviously I am very fond of a lot of these people. I think they're very good people on the whole. But to suggest that there isn't a civil war going on behind the scenes at Reform UK at the moment is totally laughable. There is because I speak to these people. There is utter fury about the fact that Nigel seems to be pushing towards giving a lot of these senior Tories big roles because the reform loyalists, they want the safe seats, they don't want the seats given to the Tories.

And the fact that Matt Goodwin is speaking out is interesting to me because he desperately wants a safe seat. but he is on the outer at the moment, and this column today will put him even more on the outer. What do you make of what's going on behind the scenes that reform, Connor? Well, we're reading the tea leaves of a quiet civil war, as you said, Dan, and each faction is trying to leverage public popularity to litigate it and present their case to the king, essentially. This is the court squabbling beneath Nigel Farage,

and Zia Yusuf and Matt Goodwin are both saying the same thing, despite both vying for the leader. ship, and to be Farrell's successor, that Boris Johnson must never be allowed in the party because they understand that bringing Boris aboard will run the ship aground. It will capsize the entire project, because the entire reason Reform UK exists is because the pledge to get Brexit done that won Boris a stonking majority and won over the red wall seats that are now flipping to teal from red, and the brief blip that they were conservative blue, was because get Brexit done was betrayed by mass third world migration. The Boris wave. Boris's legacy will be nothing to do with

Ukraine, a conflict which he inserted himself into in an attempt to be Churchillian and seemed to have prolonged. It won't even be to do with COVID, despite being the architect of the punitive lockdown policies that never needed to happen and actually cost more lives than they saved. Instead, he will be remembered for the demographic vandalism, the cultural disfigurement, the economic impoverishment that is wreaked upon this country that have voted against mass migration in every referendum in election since 1974, including his own. And so to bring Boris aboard would betray the entire reason that reform are a revolution against the uniparty state that has misgoverned this country for decades. And so to bring Nadine Dory's aboard, who is

frankly as capable of creating as many problems as she is able to point them out. She's very good on Gove and the network that helped coup out Liz Truss and install Rishi Sunak. But she is a Boris loyalist and she has said many idiotic statements about her own online safety bill, which Labor used to attack Nigel Farrowd as an ally of Jimmy Saville recently. Remember, she was the secretary for digital media, culture and sport, and spearheaded the online safety bill for quite some time. And she was demented enough not only to tell my friend and colleague Jack Hadfield that misinformation is obviously a problem. Why would you not want to police it, you know, including things like pointing out obviously true things about lockdown masks and vaccines during

COVID that would have been censored. But also, she said live on Sky News that she would lock Jimmy Carr up for a joke. Like this is insane Soviet levels of censorship. And so she should not be allowed anywhere near the insurgent populist party that is trying to break from the uniparty consensus that she herself helped because anything she says hereon that's to do with reform makes reform look less credible than it would if it weren't turning into a refugee camp for retired Tories. Yeah, it's really interesting because all of that I agree with Connor. But I think we also just have to be honest about the fact that there is also a lot of personal ambition that is connected to all of this too and there is jockeying for position going on too because for example

there's a lot of people from the former Brexit party days who are now trying to get back into the fault and I know that has also really annoyed the people who stayed loyal over that period so while I agree with everything that you say on Boris and why it's totally politically ludicrous for reform to even consider bringing him on or bringing his allies on. I do believe there's another factor at play, and it is the threat that not just Boris Johnson, but these other charismatic figures pose, because of course, you bring those people into the party, it also means less opportunities at cabinet positions, less opportunities at safe seats, and absolutely what Zia Yusuf doesn't want is anyone else, and Matt Goodwin too,

as anyone else who could be seen as a successor to Nigel Farad. So I guess there's that personal ambition thing going on too. But it's going to be fascinating to watch it. As I say, to all of those people who say, Dan, you're unfair on reform. No, I'm not. No, I'm not. I'm absolutely fair on reform. I cover reform UK in exactly the same way as any other party. And we do need scrutiny on a party that could well be our next government. Remember, I was the first to predict they would be first to predict Nigel Farage would be Prime Minister in 2029. He thinks it could be a couple of years beforehand. But we've also got to be honest, there are things reform have to do better. And that is going to be utterly critical over the next couple of years. And I think what all of

this shows is that GV News and Talk TV are not going to keep them honest. So it's going to have to be the independent media that does. Breaking today, Graham Linehan has spoken out for the first time since his arrest at Heathrow Airport by five armed police for three tweets. And the father Ted creator, and this is absolutely fascinating, got totally different treatment from the US independent broadcaster making Kelly to our corrupt national public broadcaster the British bashing corporation. So we're going to compare and contrast today because it really is something to see. This was the treatment Linnehan was given on the main BBC bulletin

last night. But I think... They would say it's toxic your side as well. So you're not going to tone things down? No. Do you regret tweeting that message now? No, I don't regret anything. Make a scene call the cops, and if all else fails,

punch him in the balls. I mean, that's insulting. Sure. It's meant to be. Yes, violence. Sure. Even some on your own side say that sometimes you don't help their cause, your cause, because it would be better to act in a more civil way.

Do you accept that? Now, let's compare that to Megan Kelly, who knows, unlike the BBC, that the treatment that Linnehan has received at the hands of the British Deep State, the British rating media, is completely disgusting, to the point where he no longer feels safe in what was his country, what? I've moved to the UK in the early, mid-90s, and I'm just always on edge now here,

because I never know if I'm going to be arrested or attacked in the street or whatever it happens to be, because as you know, trans activists prefermenting else are very violent and very volatile. So it's, it's, it's, it's, it's just not a fun place for me anymore. So that's why I eventually move to Arizona. And the thing is, we can't forget. I mean, I'm very surprised by the way, Linnehan decided to sit down with the BBC because we cannot forget how their role in all of this has been so disgraceful, how they are the ones who have pushed this trans extremism. And in the Megyn Kelly interview, Linnehan actually accused the BBC of lying by Ome. mission what you know I expected at least my co-writers Neil Hannon who I've been friends with

for most of my life Arthur Matthews who have been friends with for most of my life to stand up for me and and say no Graham's not a bit not a bigot of course women need single sex bases of course they need fair sports and I begged them to I begged them to but they never did they never they just refused to refuse point blank so you know And that was kind of the story with all my friends, you know, not a single one stood by me. I went out to dinner with them and I just asked them to please say something, anything, that just makes it sound like I'm not insane. Because one of the problems with this, Megan, is just people don't believe you. People don't believe it's happening because they can't take on the fact that the entire of society is lying to them.

Over here in the UK, the BBC has been lying by a mission about this subject for the last eight years. Yes. You know, and the woman, I don't know, I sent you a video of my, I went on to, I was ambushed on Newsnight by Sarah Smith, who basically just made it all about my, the way I conducted myself online. Again, you know, of course I was angry, you know. I was furious all the time because you're missing the issue. they're missing the issue and it's really important to talk about Sarah Smith by the way because

as Graham Linahan points out she is now in control of the BBC's news output out of America watch Sarah Smith is now the head of BBC North America and I always worry when I see when I see Americans taking on

these very very left-wing attitudes on Palestine and on the trans- issue. I do wonder how much of it is because a lot of liberals over there are sort of anglophiles, you know, which is very, which is very nice of them, but, but they, they take papers like the Guardian too seriously, channels like the BBC too seriously. And all these institutions have been completely captured. It's like a war has been fought without a battle, without a bullet fired. And all these, all these lunatics now have their feet under the table and are doing everything they

can to continue to confuse the British public about what's going on. Yeah, I think that was very important actually to raise the role of women like this who have not been journalists over this process, who have been activists. In this Megan Kelly interview, it really is fascinating, by the way, and this really upset me when Graham Linehan just spoke about how, I know what it's like when you're cancelled, I really do, just about how all of the people who have he thought were of his friends just ran away. And I genuinely thought that all my friends would come rallying to my side, all the people, all the friendships I've made over my whole career, and not a single person stood up for me.

So I started to be targeted by actually a very small group of trans-identified men, one of whom is a convicted sex offender who sexually assaulted a boy when he was 14 years old. And these men have the police wrapped around their fingers, not just me who's been arrested. There has been, you know, several dozens of women arrested in the UK over the last eight years. And again, these women are suffering in silence because no one with any authority will stand up to them. You know, Kier Starrmer came into power saying that he would end the culture wars. But he hasn't. He's just hid from them.

So as a result, women are being hauled into court, put into cells, and, you know, the police over here are basically working for trans activists. This isn't that final line. The police over here are basically working for trans activists. It is horrifying. Especially, by the way, given those trans activists are some of the most extreme people in the country who even, doxed Graham Linahan while he was still with his wife. Watch. The person I mentioned earlier, the sex offender, he released my home address online

when I was still at the family home, which absolutely, you know, terrified my wife. And even recently, oh, actually, that's sorry, that's to do with my current trial. I can't talk about my current trial. But they released their family address at home. Because I used, you know, as the writer of. father Ted, I was fairly well liked. So neither of us thought we had to be careful with our online footprint. But of course, when it flipped and I became public enemy number one, all the things that we put online were kind of rifled through by trans activists for anything they could use

against me. And the first thing was my address. Then they started calling the police on me. And the police came to our home one morning, one Sunday morning, which really upset my wife. And it was since then it's been you know never ending it's uh i've been visited by the police i think three times now not including the arrest um yeah oh yeah they came to my home uh no is it three times yeah once at my home once had a flat and uh once in london and you know i moved from norwich to london when when i got separated and um and yeah and i've never been out of litigation in this whole fight i'm constantly being sued i'm being sued at the moment by by a particularly rabid trans activist named david paisley who's a seelist actor who uh who you know has has been involved in some appalling

harassment of women and it's just constant i'm never not on edge Connor Tomlinson of Tomlinson talks on YouTube. I mean, I know Graham Lennan, I think he's a great guy. I know how much he's been impacted by this, always on edge. And that's obviously how America is hearing his story and they're horrified. They are utterly horrified by what is going on here in the United Kingdom. But at the top of the segment, I played that BBC News report. just a totally different angle.

It's so obvious they're coming at that story as if he's the one and the wrong. You can hear it in Graham's voice that the stress has really taken its toll on his personal life, on his physiology. I mean, unimaginably rough for taking what is a sensible stance on wanting to protect women's single-sex spaces

and protect them from violent, predatory, autogynophile males. And it's extra absurd that the BBC takes the position of being the ardent, offender of said sex-obsessed men's reputations, because no, they don't deserve our respect at all. Graham Linnehan did nothing wrong. If anything, it was commendable by telling women to defend themselves from violent, predatory men who want to invade their spaces. Respect is a currency, and you debase that currency when you give it out to people who do not deserve it. And do you know who doesn't deserve it? A porn-addicted men who wear a dress,

and then pretend that they are oppressed. And Graham Lennan has correctly identified lots of them, taken them to task, and unfortunately has... been hauled through the courts and his suffering because of it. And the reason the Americans are so scared of this precedent, or so outrage, it might be the better term, is because he made lots of these tweets while he was in Arizona. So he flew over from Arizona, he touched down at Heathrow Airport, was greeted by five armed guards, one of whom had a distinctly U.K. Y O K-A-Y-A-Y accent when he was telling him what he'd been charged for in that audio of Graham's arrest.

And so the Americans are thinking, well, if I visit the UK as a US citizen, am I going to get in a diplomatic incident and be arrested for something that I have said, especially considering Graham Lennan is not a British citizen as far as I know, he's an Irish citizen, he's an Irish passport. So they're thinking are the British police just going to snatch me off the tarmac and haul me away to jail for something that I'm First Amendment protected? And I've just seen in the last couple of hours that Graham is now boarding a flight to Washington, D.C., not directly to Arizona. So hopefully he's going to go speak to someone who is interested in the Trump administration in defending his rights and in leveraging their position as the global hegemon

to ensure that we Brits have more free speech in this increasingly totalitarian country. By the way, I also believe he's right to call out Sarah Smith. She's one of these BBC presenters who is not spoken about as much as she probably should be, Connick, given her huge influence as the reporter who covers Trump and the administration. And we know with John Soaple in the previous Trump administration that the BBC is an anti-Trump propagandist but Sarah Smith is a particularly interesting one because do you remember that BBC interview,

that Newsnight interview when she was just utterly vile towards Graham Linahan and of course what a lot of people probably forget and obviously you don't always share your parents' politics but you know she's someone who has been indoctrinated by left-wing politics and hard-left politics for all of her life obviously as the daughter of the former Labor leader John Smith.

Well, according to Jonathan Haidt's work, actually, Dan, political beliefs are highly heritable, which hopefully means that considering lots of liberals aren't themselves having children will have a much more conservative generation next go around, God willing. However, the BBC has shot all of its credibility. It shot it from every camp. I mean, not least of all, you know, appointing the son of the Hamas agriculture ministry

to do its narration on a documentary they had to pull. Emily Maitless pouring scorn on Brexit voters for a very long time, them getting their election coverage completely wrong, putting Mariana Spring in charge of fighting conspiracy theories and misinformation in her first episode. She makes up that my friend and colleague Carl Benjamin took over the town of Topnest when he's only visited once. Honestly, the entire thing's absurd, and I don't think the Americans are falling for it.

Actually, I think Graham, unfortunately, has little to worry about. I think that they are Anglophiles, but they understand that the BBC is an enemy outlet for the English, as much as it is the Americans. They're sourcing their opinions on their own country and ours from much more reputable institutions and alternative media sources. It's why I'm so frequently going over to Timcast to explain while we're on the cusp of civil war because of our treacherous leaders and their immigration policies that we highlighted at the top of the show. So I think that actually the Trump administration themselves are true Anglophiles. They're concerned about the suppression of our freedoms.

And I would wager that people in the State Department and various senators and the like are going to get more representatives from the UK, not just Nigel Farage, over to testify in front of. of Congress and explain how we're becoming Woke North Korea very soon. They absolutely should. They absolutely should. Connor Thominson, who is the host of the brilliant Tomlinson Talks channel, which you can subscribe to on YouTube and also substacks. So brilliant. Have you, Connor?

We will speak next week. Thank you so much. And we're going to reveal your greatest British Union Jackass in just one moment, but first to your comments. And thank you for your superchats today, by the way. Abbotter X says of Shabna Mahmood. Mamud must be removed. Islam must not be allowed in any position of power. We've already seen their intolerance on the streets. I am horrified of the idea, let alone the reality of her in office.

Trooper Bear says flags of St. George, St. Andrew, St. Patrick's and combine the union flag, all Christian. That's why she doesn't like it. And Alex Mamar says reform needs to stay clear of Boris. He's a has been of UK politics. He had the chance of being a PM and failed many of our problems are because of him. And on that note of reform and advance and TV news and talk TV, all of that, Nick Pinkham says June Slate is wrong on back infarge advances the way. However, it needs to get massive before it's taken seriously. Promote, promote, promote, promote, advance UK ASAP. Adrian Smith says, I've got my train tickets for September the 13th, looking forward to peacefully meeting up with Patriots to defend free speech. Also looking forward to the train home,

which will get me out of the hell hole that London is. On a similar note, Coral and Bell says, we need to stop this Islamification of our country or we will leave a dreadful legacy for future generations. And Lindsay Falsh says, how did you Brits? I mean, real Brits allow this to happen. You have to self-reflect how and why did you allow this to happen. You all have the voting power, the mind boggles.

And Lindsay, look, in a lot of ways, I do hear what you're saying. However, we have voted in this country since before the Rivers of Blood speech by Enoch Powell to limit legal immigration every single time we have been ignored it's one of the main reasons obviously that we voted for Brexit so we've been very very let down by our politicians and by democracy and that's why many of us believe

that there does need to be a revolution coming okay to today's greatest Britain and union jackass a reminder of your union jackass nominees. Dan Hodge is nominated by Kaz Quinn for being an absolute moronic disgrace. Beth Rigby nominated by Matt Cass 48 because she tried to make Angie Raina a victim. He says, you should go next, Beth. And Shabna Mahmood, nominated by Just Margaret 1, who being a Muslim minister in charge of the home office. And I, oh my God, I have to be honest with you. We've never had. We've never had a result like this. In third position with 4% of the vote, Dan Hodges, the runner-up with 5% of the vote, Beth Rigby.

But by an overwhelming margin, 92% of the vote, today's Union Jackass, Britain's new home secretary, Shabna Mahmood. And today's greatest Britain is James Whale, dearly departed. But it honestly was such a wonderful funeral yesterday. in some ways some people might think that's a weird thing to say but you've got to remember james knew he was dying for a very long time and every single detail of his funeral down to the songs that were sung and who they were sung by by some of his really good friends who were pop stars like matt goss were personally chosen by James. And so this was very him.

And it was very him in terms of the guest list because what I always love about James or loved about James is that he would bring together the best of politics, the best of the news business, but also the best of old-school British entertainment. And that was absolutely the case yesterday. And James had also said that he didn't want to have a wake. He wanted to have an after-party.

And that was absolutely the case. So let's just say, after what was a wonderful funeral, where his son did him proud, where his son did proud, where his granddaughter you can see there in the turquoise dress gave the most wonderful eulogy, where his wife, Nadine, a wonderful woman, did him proud by so bravely paying tribute to the past seven years that they had spent together after that, we did. Drink the night away and really celebrate a legend of a man. As you can imagine, talk radio was at the heart of the celebrations.

And James's brother, who was the pastorate and the head of the parish church where the family funeral was held, did pay tribute to talk radio and said, actually, it was talk radio allowing James to stay on air until the very end that gave him so much joy and so much passion to be able to carry on. And James also was a real fan of archery. and as he was buried I think we've got video of this actually we can look at it as he was buried there were the bow and arrows which went over the grave and whistled through the trees

as amazing grace was sung and it really was just a perfect day listen to this body to the ground earth to earth ashes to ashes dust to dust in sure and certain hope of the resurrection to eternal life. wow and that's nadine james's wife and one of her daughters and she said afterwards oh dad i don't know

if i should should be smiling the photo i'm like no no no indeed all james would want was for you to be smiling yesterday For people who don't know, James was an absolute pioneer of the whole talk radio format in the United Kingdom. He created it really. And certainly, for me personally, he was an absolute champion of my career, so generous in terms of his advice for me. And then in my very dark times over my cancellation, his ongoing support of me, even though he was dying of cancer. So it was just a wonderful day yesterday. And I know that's weird to say, but he planned it well.

He planned it down to a tea. So rest in peace, James Well, and thank you for everything. Okay, we're going to move over to Substack now for the uncannselled after show.
