No spin, no bias, no censorship. I'm Dan Wooden. This is a special Easter Monday live edition of outspoken. Episode
number 463, happy Easter to you on what is a very special day in the Christian calendar.
But breaking right now, Donald Trump has just slammed Supri Stama again at the White House ahead of a bombshell
press conference. When asked by Ben Leo, whether the UK could be resurrected this Easter,
he raised the specter of British Prime Minister Kirstama being another Neville Chamberlain.
Have you spoken to Keir's title?
Do you believe the UK could resurrects like this east of the weekend?
Well, that's what they need.
They have a long way to go.
The UK is a long way to go.
We don't want another Neville Chamberlain.
Do we agree?
We don't want, we don't want Neville Chamberlain.
And I have a feeling that will be just the start,
because today we will stay on air to bring you live coverage of Donald Trump's expected
bombshell press conference from the White House after his new deadline for the crazy bastards.
His words running Iran.
Don't go anywhere.
There is a dramatic couple of hours in geopolitics right ahead.
But also breaking today, Reform UK plunged into crisis at a seismic and terrifying moment
in British politics as the Green Party led by the sickening coalition of 10,000.
Hit Whisperer and LGBTIQIA plus extremist Zach Polanski,
and Islamist Mothanali charges to the top of the opinion polls for the first time ever.
These lunatics want to destroy this country for good.
Happy Easter, you beautiful people.
The Easter bunny has arrived with some good news because Nigel Farage,
the lying charlatan, who we know and loathe,
is going down, down, down in the latest point.
On Tuesday, Nigel Farage came to Leeds. He came to my city thinking he could spread his toxic brand of hatred.
Now, Nigel Farage is nothing but a grifter. He's a scam artist. Today, there is a growing crisis within
Nigel Farage's Reform UK. I can reveal that social media influences are now being cold-called by
HQ and asked to stand as candidates before the election deadline this Thursday.
We've told you today. It's the Reform UK. It's still looking for.
candidates in your local area.
With your support, we can make these local elections at referendum on Star.
And ensure everyone has a chance to vote for a Reform UK candidate.
And the right is at war over how to deal with the threat of a Surgeon-Restored Britain,
as Rupert Lowe becomes more outspoken by the day.
When you look at the policy offer for both, I'd say reform actually are the more right-wing.
But there's a lot that happens on social media.
I think that something very fishy went on there indeed.
And there's a big question to ask about something that's suddenly risen to such prominence online.
And they said, don't worry, what we've got to do is we've got to appear moderate for a little while.
We're going to get past the 26 local elections, which are now coming up,
and then we'll start engaging with the online right.
Meanwhile, this Easter, the country remains on the brink under Slippery Starmers' Labour shit show
with social unrest growing over the now institutional two-tier policing.
I need to stop sitting there, stand there for the do.
I don't know.
I'll phone the police on both of you.
Oh, well.
In my digest next, I'll reveal how supermarkets, M&S and waitros have become ground zero of the assault on our day-to-day lives.
Then analysis from our superstar panel, conservative commentator and social media star-based and boogie, and Steph the Alter nerd, host of the hit YouTube channel, Steph the Alternerd, and
political nerds. Also coming up on the show today, a GB News debate over ethnicity and British citizenship
explodes as Nana and Queer hits back. Cancel culture is far from over in Britain as the establishment
are piling on the pressure to get the Home Secretary to ban Kanye West from headlining London's
Wireless Festival. And of course, we will take you to the White House for that bombshell press
conference from Donald Trump as sly news launches a highly partisan attack on the US president.
Then in the Royal Uncanceled After Show on substack, Megan Markle attempts to overshadow the British
royal families' Easter appearance with her own deranged Instagram performance. We'll team up with
the Royal News Network to reveal all today. You can sign up to watch at www.outspoken.
It's the first greatest Britain and union jackass of the week two. Myself, Steph the
Alter Nerd, Baste and Buzi, all going head to head today. I have a feeling it's going to be close as
well. So Steph has nominated King Charles for not providing an Easter message on camera.
Baste and Buzzi has nominated Kirstama for shaking hands with a serial killer while staying
silent on the grooming gangs, but focusing his attention on a musician with bipolar disorder.
That's in reference to Kanye West, which we'll be speaking about later. And I've nominated Began
Michael for that creepy Easter Instagram post of her kids. Three interesting choices. Who are you going to
go for? Keep your feedback coming in throughout the show and make sure you stay with us today because we
will be going to a potentially seismic press conference from Donald Trump at the White House.
But now, let's go. A truly terrifying moment in British politics that I have predicted would happen
for months, but still represents a shocking Islamist and hard.
left threat to our disunited kingdom, which is already facing perilous times. A bombshell new poll from
Lord Ashcroft shows the tit-whisperer and Mothan Ali's mad LGBTQA plus Islamo coalition surging into first place.
With Reform UK's lead wiped out. Yes, the Greens are on 21.4%, reform 20.9%, and the Greens are on 21.9%, and
the Tories back to 20.5%. Farrarge supporters Steve Miller warned,
without a merger of the right, the left will win the next general election. Bookmark this.
And indeed, if a general election were to be held tomorrow, it would mean a hung parliament.
But that is before you take into account the growing impact of a surging,
Restore Britain, which is now clearly the reason behind reforms massive slum.
Even though the mainstream media, including GB News and talk TV,
don't want to tell you about it.
But there are two different takes on this story.
So hard leftist Aaron Bastani of Navarra Media
claimed the first time in British history
that the Greens have topped a national poll for Westminster.
Despite whatever talking points you'll hear in legacy media,
my sense is they are gently nibbling into people
who were considering reform.
And restore Britain leader Rupert Lowe himself added,
No point calling Green supporting young men and women Marxist.
or indoctrinated or hard left, some are fine. Most aren't. Most are just feeling patronized,
insulted, and neglected by an establishment that quite evidently doesn't care about them.
It hasn't for a very long time. We all know that. They see the system doesn't work for them
and they're reacting to it democratically and fairly. Do I think Polanski will solve their problems?
No, no, I do not. Do I understand why they're searching for an answer?
Yes, absolutely. Our job is to offer them an alternative option that they feel speaks for them.
Polanski has done that, to be fair. Our job is to make sure Restore Britain does the same,
but from a very different position. And that is true. But it is extraordinary,
given this scenario, that Restore remains completely banned across all the MSM,
despite having more members than the Tories and Lib Dems, while the Greek,
Green's extremist offering is treated as completely palatable, completely mainstream,
especially their crazed Muslim deputy, Mothanali.
Nigel Farage came to Leeds.
He came to my city thinking he could spread his toxic brand of hatred.
Now Nigel Farage is nothing but a grifter.
He's a scam artist.
He's a posh banker.
He's a commodities trader who's got rich of inequality.
He's coming around spreading his own brand.
of toxic hatred, trying to divide our communities.
He pretends to be a man of the people just because he's got a pint in one hand and a cigarette
in the other.
But his people aren't us.
His people aren't the plumbers or the plasterers.
His people are the wealthy elite who've bled our country dry.
Through the system of trickle-down economics, now it might have been a trickle-down,
but it's been a flood up.
Reform offers nothing new.
They're just recycled, Thatcherite policies.
They're just tories in turquoise ties.
to be talking about grifters is quite something.
As Camilla Tomini responded,
isn't the biggest scam here,
the Greens pretending you didn't celebrate the October the 7th attacks
and describe a rabbi as an animal?
But rabid Green Party supporters,
like the truly nutty,
Carol Vordeman, are being normalized,
even though her Easter message proved
that she is completely unhinged.
Easter bunny has arrived with some good news.
news because Nigel Farage, the lying charlatan who we know and loathe, is going down, down, down
in the latest polls. One of the polls out this morning put reform right down at 21%. In fact, when you
look at the detail, the Green Party is nudging slightly ahead of reform. But the great irony of this poll
is that it has been undertaken by a famous right-winger Michael Ashcroft,
who's written many books with Isabel Oakshot.
If you don't know who she is, she's the blonde girlfriend of Richard Tice, Farage's deputy,
and she's the one who's scarpered off to Dubai saying,
oh, oh, the VAT on private schooling's too much for me.
A second poll out today, which has been conducted by more in common up in Scotland,
Scotlandshire reform diving there too. They are now well below Labour in the polls. SMP way out ahead and now Reform are in third place. It's such a tough week for Nigel. So happy Easter bunnies. Reform are on their way out.
Can someone get her sectioned? That's her Easter message. But this is sinister. A restore
supporter. Ask Charlotte Gill. I do wonder how Carol Vorderman is funded these days. Same with Terry
Christian. I'm pretty sure they're on the payroll for some wealthy lobby groups. Charlotte
responded she's tied in with a lot of the EU Byline Times network groups, links to best for
Britain and the European movement, which have both had funding from George Soros. Not saying
Vorderman is on the Soros payroll, but she's linked to groups that are. I have to say,
though, Farage's Easter message, only marginally better. Watch.
It's Easter. Happy Easter to all of you. Not of course that you know it's Easter because it seems
that now cities, towns all over our country are really, really shy about advertising the fact.
So why have we got this holiday? Well, it's very simple. It's all about the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
That is the origin of this. And indeed, it is our Judea Christian culture that underpins everything in our country.
Of course, we can be tolerant of all religions. We always have been. But isn't it about time
we started to insist that this is who we are? So I wish you all a very good, peaceful, family
time. And it reminds me of the founding principles of reformer UK, family, community, country.
And it's worth all of us spending some time thinking about that over this break.
But as Conor Thomanson responded, imagine saying our Judeo Christian culture at Easter.
And now we haven't always been tolerant of other faiths, nor are we obliged to be.
In a new video, Tomlinson has revealed how Reform has crashed support on the right with its weak source approach.
I spoke to some of the people in Reform who were part of Zia's team, and this was around the same time, late 2024, and they said, don't worry, what we've got to do is we've got to appear moderate for a little while.
We're going to get past the 2026 local elections, which are now coming up, and then we'll start engaging with the online right.
Then we'll branch out from mainstream media and start talking to the podcast sphere.
Then we'll unite the right and bring everyone together.
And I said to them, guys, in the meantime, you're going to restrange a lot of people who would otherwise be doing free PR for you.
Who would be your candidates, who would be your canvases, who would be your cheerleaders.
And they are either going to wander down political cul-de-sacs and waste their time, or they're going to set up a
rival power base and at the very least split the vote, if not reach an inflection point and
surpass you and you're going to be wondering what the hell happened.
Meanwhile, I can reveal today that Reform UK is in crisis ahead of the deadline to submit
election candidates by 4pm this Thursday, with social media influences over the weekend
being cold called by Reform HQ asking to stand as candidates.
Now one such influencer who has no official connection with reform and is not a party member
sent me the approach made to them. Listen.
We've told you today if the Reform UK is still looking for candidates in your local area.
With your support, we can make these local elections at referendum on staff
and ensure everyone has a chance to vote for a Reform UK candidate.
If you are willing to stand for us, please send us an email to candidate at Reformparty.uk.
within the next 24 hours.
We have one chance at this.
And with your help, we really can turn this country around.
Please consider standing, and we wish you the best.
How nuts is that?
The deadline is on Thursday.
You could tell that that guy is calling from a call centre,
which means they are desperate for people.
And it backs up my previous reporting
that cold callers have been chaotically approaching reform members too
to consider standing as paper.
candidates. Now, the Brexit party founder turned, restore, supporter Catherine Blakelott, put it this
way. Reform hasn't got enough candidates because thousands of people on the ground have moved to
restore, make the move now we plan to win. And even Andrew Pearce of the Daily Mail is reporting
on a crisis within Reform UK. He revealed, I'm told there is mounting nervousness within the ranks.
One senior figure admits to me there are jitters inside Reforms offices in Millbank Tower,
labor's former Riverside Bastion ahead of the May 7th ballot. Farage faces a new and going threat
to his right flank. In February, ex-reform MP Rupert Lowe established a party called Restore Britain
after Farage kicked him out when he criticised his leader's messianic management style to me in these
pages. This week, Lowe reported that restore after less than two months was already Britain's fourth
largest party with 125,000 members surpassing the Tories on 113,000 and more than done.
the Lib Dem membership. The Greens, Labor and Reform all have at least 200,000 members.
The ex-investment banker who donates his MP salary to charity tells me,
our aim is clear to win the next general election. Pairs goes on, that may be ambitious,
but those insurgent movement could undoubtedly bleed significant support from reform.
For years, British people on the right who were disappointed with the Tory party's liberal
drift under David Cameron, Theresa May, Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak,
from rising taxation to net zero legislation and military disarmament,
were forced to default to Farage. Now, judging by Restore's membership figures, some believe they may
have a new option in a party pledging the mass deportation of every illegal migrant,
stripping benefits from healthy Britons who refuse to work as well as from non-British nationals,
abolishing inheritance tax and even proposing a referendum on the death penalty. Piss goes on.
Farage, I'm told, is aiming to win at least 1,000 council seats across England,
with targets including Sunderland and South Tyneside, Norfolk, Suffolk and outer Lunderburys.
of Bexley, Bromley, Havering and Barking and Dagenham, the party is also polling well in Scotland.
A senior reform figure tells me, considering where we were at the general election when we won
five MPs, the results in May will be extraordinary. However, expectations have been set too high
that we were going to win a landslide. We haven't controlled the messaging. The source said the war
in Iran was another electoral drag. Nigel is friends with Trump who started the war. No one should
deny Farage's achievements. This is Pearce now. From a standing start, he has built,
into a political force now topping the national polls and he remains as driven and energetic as ever.
But equally, it has been hard for him to escape that caustic description by Exeterate
Pfizer-Dominent Cummings that reform boil down to Farage plus iPhone.
So this is really interesting to me because it's like,
finally the Daily Mail has just acknowledged the Rupert low factor.
And Rupert continues to refuse to hold back in a way that we know Farage now does.
For example, he posted over Easter weekend after critics said there were to be.
too many white people at Restore meetings. Restore Britain has been attacked for a lack of
diversity at our local branch meetings. I really cannot put in words how little I care. But still,
the Reform UK shills in the MSM, especially GB News and especially talk TV, refuse to see what's
happening out there, or maybe they don't refuse to see it, they just refuse to tell the truth about it.
So Reform loyalist Alex Phillips keeps on convincing herself that the Surging Restore Britain poll
rating is thanks to an army of bots.
I think also reform has lost a little bit of ground.
I know that this is a bit controversial.
And I also don't know if this is going to be a permanent thing or not.
But Rupert Lowe's sort of start-up little thing.
I don't even know if it is an official political party standing in places yet.
I think it has been registered with Elcom.
And I think they are going to be standing council candidates, but only in Great Yarmouth,
which of course is.
So it is starting to become a party, if you like.
Restore is never, I don't think, or certainly not in the short to medium term, is not going to be a party that is going to be able to win any seats beyond perhaps Great Yarmouth at a national level.
Even there, the polling doesn't look particularly good for Restore.
But what I would say is, oh yes, I don't think that it's going to be a sort of a wildly successful party.
What I do think it could do is siphon away, fight.
percent of the vote from reform, say, in some places, maybe four, maybe three, maybe six in
others. Not a huge amount on the surface, but enough, I think, to pull down reforms polling
in some places that might give them pause for thought and think, ooh, maybe in certain areas
we need to slightly change our strategy. I think it's a little bit of a, it's a little bit of a
shot across the bowels for reform. I think it's a reminder that, look, not everything goes your
own way. And it's a reminder actually in Italian politics, for instance, everybody remembers
Matteo Salvini when he was the right-wing person and he was going to be the prime minister and
he was going to sort everything out and he didn't. And a party came from the right, which
nobody thought was going to happen. The Leger Nord were outrightified by Fratelli
D'Italia. And now what you have is an even more, you know, ostensibly right-wing party that ended
up taking power. I think it's just a little reminder. It's interesting because looking at, and you can
actually chuck this sort of stuff into, you know, grass.
or AI and say compare and contrast.
When you look at the policy offer for both,
I'd say reform actually are the more right wing.
But there's a lot that happens on social media.
And looking at an example,
someone said Chowchescu then, Georgescu,
crying that loud, completely different people.
In Romania, he was an absolute phenomenon on social media.
Story behind that's quite interesting there,
because indeed he was a phenomenon on social media.
The EU then cancelled the election saying,
well, it was all a load of bots.
indeed it was, but the bots were not foreign bots,
the bots were European bots.
And I think that something very fishy went on there indeed.
And there's a big question to ask about something that's suddenly risen to such prominence online.
Okay, so I wanted to show you that because I think it's important you see the lengths
that the right are going to to try and delegitimize Rupert Lowe and restore Britain.
Bots? Seriously? Let me tell you, Alex. And you know I love you. But it's not 120,000 bots
who are spending their own hard-earned money to join Restore Britain. Other serious figures on the right
are now calling for mergers with Calvin McKenzie, arguing my bet is that come May the Sixth Reform
does better than the 21% Lord Ashcroft poll predicts, a new low for Farage, and that the Tories
do worse than 21%. Nevertheless, Nigel should show he's the bigger man and open talks with
Kemi after next month's election. Unite the right. But Richard Tice's fiancé's fiancée Isabel Oakes
soon hit back. She said you are echoing a lot of wheedling Tories. For 14 years, they betrayed
voters and failed in every key measure they brought our country to the brink. This is not some
kind of Clegg Cameron's situation. Calvin replied except Cameron to Sue Nack betrayed us at every turn.
but the reality is that a Labour Green Lib Dem offering will be too strong for reformed to defeat on their own.
Now, there is no doubt that our country is on the brink under Slippery Starmes' Labour shit show,
with social unrest growing over the now institutional levels of two-tier policing.
As Chris Rose put it, look at how differently.
The police handled young football fans yesterday in comparison to the young looters in Clapham.
They remembered how to use the batons again.
Watch.
Now compare that to clap him.
The police did nothing.
The police did nothing.
The signs of societal decline are now every.
where to see. From London.
I said, they're nothing, bro.
Fetts are nothing.
Should we go in?
Fucking cock.
It's that?
Fuckin, this is wild, bro.
I'm recording the whole thing.
This is, bro.
This is wild, man.
Look at this shit.
What the fuck, mate.
I ain't even trying to get no Pokemon.
This is just wild, mate.
They broke open with the shoes everywhere, man.
This is...
To Milton Keynes
To a bus and Coventry
Go
Heck me off
She needs
She needs
Not one word
Not one word
Why do you think
The whole boss was
Disposive with your reaction
Not after you talk to me like a dark
More of a gal
And then you need to stop sitting there
Stay on it with us
You're doing me
Yeah, I have
That's what you're talking about
And anyone native
Oh, well.
And anyone native who tries to step up and save our country is punished.
Like Walter Smith.
Walter Smith, the veteran waitrose worker of 17 years,
a hero in my view, who was sacked after tackling a shoplifter who was trying to steal luxury Easter eggs.
Now Mr Smith recognized the shoplifter as a shoplifter as a
repeat offender and grabbed the bag from him. The thief snatched the bag back and a tug of war
and snued between the pair before the bag ripped and the lint gold bunny eggs which retail for
£13 each fell to the floor with one smashing two pieces. With his plan foiled, the shoplifter
sprinted out of the shop. Well, Mr Smith picked up a piece of broken chocolate and threw it out
of frustration in the direction of some shopping trolleys but did not aim it at the thief. He was
scolded by his manager and had to apologize. But his superior still
decided to escalate the matter higher, leaving Mr Smith to go home, punching himself and questioning
why he stopped the thief. A few days later, it gets worse. Mr. Smith was pulled into a meeting
with two store managers. Having a feeling about what was about to happen, he pleaded with his bosses
and told them waitrose is like his family. But they still decided to fire their staff member
of 17 years over the incident. Mr. Smith, previous,
admitted staff had been told not to approach shoplifters but said he was spurred into action after
watching thieves get away with stealing from the shop every hour of the day for the last five years.
He said it is everyone from drug addicts to teenagers swiping items, including alcohol,
but staff are not allowed to do anything. Due to security being cut in the store with no guards
working on Monday and Tuesdays, Mr Smith and his colleagues were left without any help.
He had recently moved into a studio flat on his own, after only being able to afford to live in a flat share
with other people for 25 years. Now he worries he could become homeless and his confidence is on the
floor. He told the Guardian, I'm not a bad or violent or aggressive person. I just got frustrated
seeing this day in, day out and not seeing Waitrose do much about it. Shame on you, Waitrose.
I don't actually give a damn about your lengthy explanation. You should have stood by your man.
you should have stood by Ben on Wine, who you sacked because of his right-wing political views.
As Ross Kempsel of Gido Forks put it, reinstate this good guy waitrose, please, or we will organise a boycott.
Now, it's interesting because supermarkets have actually become ground zero of the assault on our day-to-day lives.
With M&S, seeming to do the opposite of waitros and speaking up for its under attack staff
by accusing London's failing mayor, Sidy Khan, of being soft on crime after.
after teenagers caused chaos in their Clapham store.
Here's Adam Hawkesby, the supermarket giant's head of external affairs,
summing up how lawless London is becoming impossible to work in or run a business.
I think what we're seeing in our stores is that we sometimes bear the brunt of wider societal challenges.
And look, you know, we're not best place to try and diagnose some of those root causes.
But as I said, the Clapham incident was one.
That was a group of young people.
but we also see organised crime in our stores and crime gangs.
We also see individuals that are under the influence of drugs and alcohol.
So I think this is really complex.
It's really systemic, which is why it's important that we have retailers and police forces and politicians
all working side by side on this.
I should just say the Home Office has given us a statement from the crime of policing minister,
Sarah Jones saying these disgraceful incidents are absolutely appalling.
Mindless behaviour is no place in our society.
And these criminals must face the full force of the ill.
We're giving police stronger powers, ending the immunity for thefts under £200.
just discussing so that shoplifters can be prosecuted.
We owe to the police to use all tools at their disposal
to maintain order to protect workers and punish those responsible.
What impact is it having on staff? Are people nervous about coming to work?
And presumably it's not very good for business either.
Well, look, our colleagues are really resilient
and they will always manage its incidents in the best way they can.
But it clearly has an impact.
And look, we've spoken out primarily because of the number of comments we've had from colleagues.
Sometimes when they've seen reports in the media that, you know, retail crime numbers are going down.
And they say it really doesn't feel like that to us.
And for them it means, you know, they're worried about coming into work.
They might be nervous about the journey home.
And that's not a position that we want our colleagues to be in.
So really it's with them at the forefront of our minds that we're engaging in this debate.
It is this societal crisis, which is seeing desperate Brits increasingly turning to restore Britain
and yes, the Green Party, and away from the newly establishment, Reform UK.
Now, the Superstar Panel.
To based and Buzi and Steph, the Alternerd.
Steph, Reform UK, they don't want to admit it.
But they are in crisis, they can't even get enough candidates,
and the deadline for the elections is on Thursday.
They're having to cold call influences.
I'm surprised you haven't been called yet, Steph.
What do you think is going on?
And why do you think that Restore Britain is stealing so much momentum?
A little bit of an exclusive for you because I haven't even mentioned this publicly yet, but they have called me.
No.
Twice.
Twice.
Oh, let me tell you the ways.
Okay, so beginning of this year, I email reform and I tell them I want to cancel my subscription to.
them, my membership to them, because I'm over at Restore.
They don't acknowledge my email.
I email them way in advance of my yearly subscription to them.
They take my yearly subscription by direct debit.
And only after that do I then get an email saying, whoops, sorry, are bad.
Yes, we've cancelled your membership and we're going to refund your direct debit.
I was like, too right.
A couple of weeks later, so this is around about
February time, I get a call from Reform.
And they're asking me to stand in the elections for my area.
And I turn around and I says, have you actually checked your membership list?
Because I'm not on it anymore.
I'm with Restore.
I'm not with you guys anymore.
Okay.
Last week, they tried calling again.
We'd love for you to stand for us for the upcoming elections, this, that and the other.
Even though you've actually said that you are a restore member now.
Yeah, I'm full restore member.
So they're now trying to poach us from restore to reform.
They are absolutely shameless about it.
I've told them I'm with restore.
But yet they call me again last week wanting me to stand for reform.
It just shows how desperate they are and how much they're in a shambles
and how much Rupert Law is really, really making a din in reform.
Absolutely.
Because based on Bucci, I have been saying for months,
the Green Party, Zach Polansky, the tip whisperer,
Moth and Ali the Islamist are going to end up being number one in the polls.
And we saw it from that Lord Ashcroft poll over the weekend.
Okay, it's only one.
But the trend line is clear.
And the thing is based, the only reason Reform UK is,
is slumping is because of the launch of Restore.
It's just that most pollsters don't yet track Rupert Lowe's party.
I'll be so honest with you.
I don't think it has anything to do with Restore Britain.
From my understanding, most of Restore support is on X,
and only less than 27% of the population are on X.
I don't think it has to do anything with Restore.
I think it has to do with the fact that majority of this country is left centre.
So the idea of migration or deportation is still new to be.
people. And I know this because I'm out on the streets all the time asking people questions.
And the idea of just deporting people is insane, let alone restore Britain's policies.
So now, I don't think it has anything to do with restore. I don't think many people even know
who restore is unless it's on X. I think it just has to do with the fact that people are still
adjusting to the fact that we need deportations. Mass migration is an issue. And not only that,
but reform, they're just adjusting to it. So that's what I think. But then what's interesting
about that, though, based, is that
Reform UK have been moving
to the left, right, for the
argument that you make.
But that's not
working because
they're moved to the left and they're poaching
of all of all of these people from the conservatives
coincides with
their massive slump in the polls.
Yeah, but we can say the same
thing about, for example, Tommy Robinson.
So as Toma Robinson started off on the EDL.
He left the EDL because the EDL was too racist,
but till this day, people can't wrap off
the EDL history off of him.
It's the same thing with reform.
They came in very, very hardcore saying they want to deport people.
They want mass remigration and so on and so forth.
But that stain just won't come off of them.
So I think it's just all about public perception.
People still see reform as that right-wing Nazi party
who's trying to deport everyone
and are not really aware of the fact that reform is actually leaning more to the centre.
For instance, when I went to a woman's only movement,
so many people were saying reform is a racist party.
they weren't even aware that they had Zia Yusif.
They don't even aware they have a Muslim male candidate.
So, yeah, I just don't think it has anything to do with Restore.
I don't think most people are even aware of Restore
unless you'll probably pay attention to politics.
And if people were aware of Restore,
I think they would think that reform is actually more soft, actually.
I think it would actually grow reform support if people were aware of Restore.
The race debate in British politics is absolutely kicking off.
You can't deny that.
There is a huge split over ethnicity, what it means to be British, what it means to be English.
And G.B. News actually has found itself as the ground zero of this argument over the past few days.
Now, Nana are queer. She's a good friend of mine, one of the hosts on GB News, clearly a patriotic woman, posted,
I find it interesting reading some of the comments that some people think you can only be white and British.
Now that was after a debate between Amal Bajan and Stella from Greece, I think it is.
I mean, can't stand the woman, if I'm totally honest, and I never had her on when I was at G.B. News.
She's got a very difficult to pronounce last name, which I can't remember, but she's not a British citizen.
So I do find it bizarre that GB News keep on turning to her to be a voice of the left when she's not even a British citizen.
But on the right, and some would say the online right, whatever that means, there was the debate whether these people were actually the best to talk about this issue at all.
With Bodeid of the Lotus Eaters posting, all three people at that desk have ancestral homelands which aren't these islands.
Classic G.B. News. So I just want to show you a portion of this clash on G.B. News.
Amman, am I a foreigner?
Am I a foreigner?
Are you a foreigner?
Am I a foreigner?
You said, you said that we are spending billions of pounds on foreigners on universal credit.
I have been here.
I've lived here for 13 and a half years.
Right.
I'm not a British citizen because applying for a British citizenship costs 2,000 pounds.
Perhaps you should invest in that.
And I did not have 2,000 pounds lying around.
Have you got enough?
You should do it?
I do not have a British citizenship.
Tell me, if I fall sick tomorrow and I cannot work,
should I be allowed to claim benefits?
No. No.
You think I should not be allowed to claim benefits?
At what point do you believe that a person like me
has sufficiently worked for long enough,
paid into the tax system for long enough,
to deserve to not go homeless,
to not be able to pay for my rent or for my food?
That's a very simple answer to that question.
That is as soon as you want to become a citizen.
you're two grand to become a citizen.
So, but wait a minute.
Do you have an affinity with Britain?
You know that I do.
Well, if you do, then I'm having to become a citizen.
Listen, you can't have.
This is what I see here.
You want the benefits of being a citizen of this country
and you're qualifying to do that.
Then pay for it.
That's what happens.
In other countries, you don't get anything.
If you're a foreign national suffering in those countries,
go to the US.
And is that...
Sorry, you go to the US.
You suffer, you're a foreign national.
They say, whoa, you should have insurance.
We're not paying for you.
There's no way they'll do that.
So I don't think that's hostile or horrible.
You've come to this country.
You love this country.
You live in this country.
You've lived for many, many years.
It's two grand.
How much does you make our phone cost to?
If you love this country, and if you love this country, as both of you say you do,
then why do you, why do you criticize the things that make this country great?
Okay, so for me, that's nuts, because that's Stella Santa Kido, who doesn't have citizenship,
questioning Armand Bogle and Nana Acquer, who both do and are clear patriots.
But this split on the right of politics is there.
We can't deny it's there.
Today, our superstar panel is Steph the Alternerd and Baste and Buzi,
both brilliant young influences in this country who are clearly patriotic.
But what's interested is that Bays and Bougy has become a bit of a face of this discussion.
because totally unprompted during a heated debate on this show on Good Friday
between Gavin Bovey and Ricky Doolin, Minister Ricky Doolin,
Basin Buzi was used as an example of a true patriot
who really should throw the whole idea of ethno-nationalism under the bus.
I want you to watch what happened, and I'm not sure if you've seen this base,
so I'll bring you an after.
The ethno nationalist argument is so stupid
because I'd much rather stand
with a basting booji over a Kia Stama
any day of the week.
Yeah, correct.
Correct.
Yeah, what do you say about someone like based and bougie, Gavin?
Basin Buzzi is a foreigner.
She may be very nice.
I don't know.
Nice.
Are we talking about nice?
She might be nice, is it?
Or ideology.
I would say about it. Gavin, I've just found that condescending.
I will finish.
So I don't know, but in general, I think that foreign populations are going to have to be repatriated.
And if you say, well, if you say, because I like this person, I think this person is good,
then what I will do is I will go to the most evil, nasty guy and I'll say,
you, you, Abu Hamza, pay me half a million dollars, and I'll say,
I'll give you a recommendation and you can stay in the country. And I'm not the only one he's going to do
that. So that is likely to happen. What a truly obnoxious attitude and approach.
Let me explain. My ideology, man. But let me explain something. I happen to be married to an immigrant.
And who are you to tell me my wife must leave the country? You obnoxious little man.
So, base, that was sort of unexpected, right? It kicked off on Good Friday between the priests,
and Gavin Bovey, who runs this mosque busters account,
which aims to stop the building of mosques in the UK.
And you're obviously the pin-up girl for the likes of Ricky Doolin,
who are what you would describe as civic nationalists,
which is the reason why you obviously supported Tommy Robinson in the first place.
Now, you know, for me, I just don't even see race.
I don't see ethnicity.
I want you and Steph on the show because I think you're both.
amazing patriots. But you can't deny now base that color and ethnicity and race has become
part of this debate. So how do you feel about it and how do you feel about being used
as part of this debate now going forward? For me, it's quite shocking that this debate is
going forward because I always thought it was simple. You have your ethnicity, then you have your
nationality, then you have your culture, then you have your skin color. I've never denied the fact
that I am ethnically Congolese. I couldn't even hide it if I tried to. But culturally,
and in terms of my nationality, Britain is literally all I know. So I find myself constantly
having to explain something since something that I've known and I've admitted since three years old
that I'm ethnically one thing, but culturally in nationality, I'm a different thing.
And this is the thing when it comes to ethno-nationalism. There's actually nothing wrong
with being an ethnic nationalist. There's nothing wrong with wanting to preserve your race
of people. Everyone around the world does this. The Africans, the Chinese,
the Caribbean, everyone is protective of their race because we are all tribal.
But it becomes wrong when you start to just throw insults, for example, saying that I'm a
foreigner. How can I be foreign country that I've literally been born in? I can literally count
with one hand how many times I've left this country. To me, that's an insult. To me, you're just
trying to tell me that I have absolutely nothing to do with this country. And the more people
start to spew these kind of talking points, the more people start to turn their backs on the
ethno-nationalists. So I'll always stand by the fact that the idea of protection
your race of people, it's okay.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with that,
and I advise everyone to do that.
But when you start to do the whole insulting,
which I constantly see online,
that's where, you know,
the whole idea of ethno nationalism
just starts to look darker than it actually is.
Stiff, the alternate,
where do you stand on this?
I think it's absolutely ridiculous
that there are idiots out there,
and I'm going to put that lightly
seen as we're on YouTube here,
a calling
Bistam Boogee a foreigner
She's more British
Not a lot of them out there
She's literally on the front lines
With Tommy Robinson
Marching right at the front
At the United Kingdom Rally
Which by the way girl
Like I'm looking forward to seeing you there again
The next one coming up
But she's the freaking bad
Let's put it this way
That odious man that you had on the show
Erdan on Good Friday.
I wonder how he would try and square the circle with someone like me.
I'm white.
I'm Caucasian.
I sound Yorkshire because I am Yorkshire.
But guess what?
I'm dual nationality.
I'm British, but I'm also Italian.
So what?
Does that mean that I have to be on the chopping block and I have to get out?
Even though I was born here and I pay my taxes here and I contribute to the economy.
and I've never once claimed for any benefits, this, that and the other have never drained the economy.
For me, it's like, stop trying to focus, let's say, on what they may consider the easy targets,
because the easy targets are the wrong targets anyway, right?
Focus on the issue at hand, focus on the sector of people that are foreigners
that don't have British citizenship, that are bleeding this country,
focus on the illegal immigrants.
I think one of the problems here, though, based,
is that you've got the left trying to say that the English ethnicity doesn't exist.
So, for example, take the Home Secretary Shibana Mahmood,
who did an interview saying, I'm English,
but then said people who want to preserve English ethnicity
are wanting a little Britain or a little England.
Whereas you acknowledge, right, that there is English ethnicity, but you put that in a different category to British nationality.
So you would say that you are, what, African by ethnicity, but British by nationality?
Yeah, exactly that.
And I thought we all knew this.
I've never come across any person in my lifetime who's non-English who claim to be English.
Shibana MacMood now does.
And that's the problem.
And I think, and this is why I hate to say this,
but I somewhat understand that outrage
and why people have to now come online
and reiterate what Englishness is or Britishness is
because you do have people on the left.
And I believe that Shabna Mahmood,
she knew exactly what she was doing when she did that.
She wasn't being done.
You have people on the left who are trying to,
let's just be real, they're trying to eradicate British culture
and they're trying to eradicate the English people.
and I'll be so honest with you, I love British culture,
but I'll be the first to admit that me, myself,
I cannot make up British culture as authentically
as someone who is ethnically and indigenously English.
So I believe people need to stop doing that.
People need to stop claiming to be something that they're not.
You can say your nationality is one thing.
You can say you identify of a culture,
but in terms of ethnicity,
people need to stop doing that.
So I can understand when a lot of people,
English people get frustrated.
But at the same time, I don't think it's right
to now start throwing in.
towards people who actually love the country, people like myself and Baraka.
And are not the problem.
And that, that I think, is the point, you see, because no one would go to Japan and try
to raise the Japanese ethnic group.
No one would do it to Mexico or Nigeria or Somalia.
And so this is the problem, I think.
It's like, Steph, there is a denialism going on about the fact that actually
as English people, it's absolutely okay to want to preserve the English ethnicity
while also acknowledging that someone like Baste and Bougie is, of course, a British citizen.
Absolutely. And going back to Shabana McMood there, if Shabana McMood is calling herself English,
then guess what? I am declaring right now that I'm freaking Chinese. Like, come on, how ridiculous is that
that statement for Shabana McMood to make, because let's put it this way, right?
Wearing a headscarf, wearing the hijab, the knickab, this that and the other.
Guess what? A little bit of a mindbreaker here. That's not English. That's Islamic
culture. That's Islamic identity. That's not British identity. That's not English identity.
And so for her to turn around and say, I'm just as English as, you know,
Steph the alternate or Dan Root and this, that and the other, pull the other one,
not a chance.
And this is a thing.
And I've always made this argument myself.
If I ever went to, let's say Saudi Arabia, right?
And I went there to live.
Do you think I'm going to be turning around and saying, do you know what?
I don't agree with Sharia law because it's not part of my culture and what I believe in.
So you need to change for me.
No, I'm not.
Because Saudi Arabia, they're an Islamic culture,
there's an Islamic country, and they rule under Islamic law.
That is their culture.
How dare me as a foreigner turn around to them and say,
you must change because of me?
But that's what's happening right here in England right now
and the rest of the UK.
But somehow, because we stand up and say,
no, we're not going to take this enough is enough.
We're then branded as far right, this, that and the other.
I'm sick and tired of it.
Okay, we are standing by to cross to the White House,
probably at some point at the top of the hour,
where Donald Trump is expected to deliver a bombshell press conference.
You know, overnight, the left,
and actually a lot of the right are up at arms about his posts
in terms of the bastards in Iran, the threat that he's making.
In the past two hours, he has also launched a new attack
on slippery stammer. So there is going to be a lot of news made today. We will be bringing you
this press conference live. So don't go anywhere. It is coming up very, very shortly.
But first, cancel culture is far from over in Britain as the establishment a piling pressure
on the Home Secretary to ban Kanye West from entering the country, following the controversy,
surrounding the rapper headlining London's Wireless Festival.
Now, this all started when Slippre Stama told the sun on Sunday at the weekend
that it was deeply concerning that West had been booked to perform at Wireless
despite previous anti-Semitic comments and celebration of Nazism.
Now look, here's the thing.
Kanye, clearly a bit of an usher.
I don't disagree with that.
I've actually interviewed the guy.
He's troubled.
We know that.
He's a troubled artist.
But I am very concerned about this.
because we're becoming a censorship state.
And let's think, and I say this, by the way,
to all of the supporters of Israel
and all of the Jewish friends of this show,
if we ban Kanye West and the government does that,
how quickly are we going to see more and more people
start being banned from entering the country
on so-called grounds of Islamophobia?
I am a free speech absolutist.
Everyone has a choice not to attend
and not to support this event.
But if we just ban people all the time,
I think we're heading down a path that we don't want to.
And it wasn't just Stama doing this, by the way,
said he can't, said the past comments and actions of the rapper are offensive and wrong
and not reflective of London's values.
And even the Tory, Kemi Badenog, suggested that Kanye shouldn't be platform, platform.
That's a term of the left. Watch.
A huge increase in anti-Semitism all across the world.
And we need to do everything we can in order to stop the rise in HATER.
of Jewish people. That does mean not platforming people who make anti-Semitic statements
or who put out anything that will incite violence and hatred towards Jews.
And sure enough, UK ministers have just said that Kanye West's permission to enter the UK
is under review. So it looks like they're going to ban this guy. They're giving into
pressure from freaks like Ed Davey.
Watch.
This is a person who wrote a song saying,
Hal Hitler.
Praising Adolf Hitler.
I can't think of anything more anti-Semitic.
Now, the Australian government has earlier banned him from going to Australia
for those anti-Semitic hate speech.
And we should too.
The Home Secretary should ban him from coming to this country.
We've got to take anti-Semitism more seriously.
We can't have people like him with a whole...
horrible song coming. And, you know, we've argued, for example, that the IRGC should be banned.
The Conservatives refused to do it. This government's refused to do it. We need to get tougher
on anti-Semeter's. Now, you know what happens here when the cancel culture mob hits? The main
sponsors of the festival, Pepsi, have announced they have withdrawn with DiGio, owner of Johnny Walker
and Captain Morgan following suit. We've had two more pull-outs announced today. PayPal will not feature
any of its branding for Wireless Festival moving forward, and Rockstar Energy have pulled their sponsor too.
The Daily Mail reported that Tottenham Hotspur Stadium blocked West from performing there before it was
announced he would headline wireless. I don't mind any of that, to be honest. I mean, it is capitalism
in practice and brands never want to associate with anyone controversial on the right, so I guess
why should Kanye be any different. But more chilling is its Labour MPs, piling pressure on Stama to go a step
further and ban this guy from be able to come here at all. And remember, that is what we have seen
with other lefty countries like Australia in regards to folk like Candace Owens and Kelly J. Keene.
The calls for banning the rapper from the UK infected the wider political spectrum to Shadow Home Secretary
Chris Phelp posted on ex-Kanya West is guilty of appalling anti-Semitic and pro-Nazi comments. He had written
to the Home Secretary, Sajad Javid, the former.
Home Secretary said Wireless Festival's booking of Kenya West is disgraceful. Yes, he has spoken
about mental health challenges. That should be met with sympathy, but declaring yourself an
Nazi and promoting a song called Howell Hitler should have consequences. And these consequences
don't include being given a stage to spread your hate to thousands of young Londoners.
It's Morgan. We know Piers Morgan, right, is the biggest of the critical buffoon.
Because his show is literally called uncensored.
What does he want to do?
Censor him.
Shouldn't even be a debate.
Kanye's Hitler-loving Nazi, slathering, Jew-hating bullshit,
shouldn't be disqualifying for appearance at any music festival.
Ironically, though, not disqualifying from him appearing on uncensored
for you to make money from the interview on YouTube.
One rule for thee, but not for me, Piers Morgan, summed up.
As for Katie Hopkins, I'm with her.
She wrote, a British Prime Minister getting involved in a musician,
coming to the UK is bloody ridiculous. It is not compulsory attendance. Want to see Kanye buy a ticket.
Don't then stay home. Can we quit banning people on the basis of someone else's perceived offence?
FFS. And this is the thing. And I'm going to bring my superstar panel on this base in Buzhi and
Steph the alternate. This is the thing. You can hate what Kanye West did. But if we become a censorship
state based, this is going to go to a dark place.
And I just beg and urge the right to start thinking about what type of country we are becoming.
When we slam the door shut on influences or musicians who we don't like, it's chilling.
And it's going to lead somewhere very, very worrying.
We'll soon we'll see Jordan Peterson band.
Soon we'll see Candace Owen band.
Soon we'll see Tucker Carlson band.
Soon we'll see Megan Kelly band.
This is where we're hitting.
Are people forgetting that Kanye West has already apologised multiple times to the Jewish community?
Are we also not forgetting that he pretty much lost a million in a day?
Like he lost so much, he lost his company, he lost his marriage, he lost everything.
And he apologised for it.
I'm just so sick and tired of this culture that is, you know, on the rise where it's like
once a person makes a mistake, there is no room for redemption.
I hate that.
Are we forgetting that we're dealing with human beings and not these robots that we just program and tell what to do?
In the minute the robot doesn't act accordingly, we throw it away.
We're human beings, we make mistakes.
Not only that, but the people who are saying that Kanye West should be banned from the country,
who makes you the arbiter of what people can and cannot listen to?
How are you trying to tell me what I can and cannot listen to you?
If you don't want to listen to it, just don't buy the ticket,
or just don't error it on your TV.
Is that simple?
I'm just really, really sick and tired of this cancer culture.
I don't agree with a lot of the things that Kanye West has said.
I think he took it a little bit too far, especially with the song.
But at the end of the day, I feel like sometimes, just sometimes we need to be able to separate the person and the things that they've done in the past from the music.
And I would be lying if I said Kanye West doesn't make amazing music.
He is talented.
And even if people try to counsel him, like we've seen in his recent concert, he's just not cancounable.
Sorry, he's uncounselable.
And I mean, in the sense that people will not agree with what he has to say, but they will always agree with his art because he is a talented genius.
Steve, the alternate, where do you stand?
I think it's a load of BS, really at the end of the day, what's going on here?
Because Tutu Ikea is so happy, right, to let the president of Syria in,
who used to be leader of Al-Qaeda in Syria, shake his hand,
have meetings with him, this, that and the other.
He's happy for the likes of him to come into UK.
He's happy for the likes of a butload, thousands upon thousands.
undocumented illegal immigrants into this country, right?
Free to, let's be clear here, right?
Rape our women and children,
bleed our benefit system dry.
But oh my goodness,
Kanye was just about to enter the UK.
Everyone, panic, battle stations.
I'm like, she's the freaking bad.
At least if Kanye's coming in,
he's contributing to the economy.
And ultimately, at the end of the day,
acknowledging his past comments,
which, of course, for me,
They're disgusting. He has apologised for them. Based on Boogie is right.
But ultimately, there are those that still want to see and perform live.
I mean, I've seen pictures of that two-day residence that he had at the Sphere in Las Vegas.
Fucking amazing. Sold out 80,000 people.
Whether you like it or not, people still want to see and perform live.
And we should leave it to the freedom of choice for people to either buy a ticket or not to see Kanye.
We shouldn't allow the government to.
take that choice away from the people
because then where does it end?
Yeah, where does it end based?
That's the thing where does it end?
But it is very clear, by the way,
that there is going to be a ban, isn't there?
Because this is what happens with the mob
and people don't think about the consequences.
Right.
And I just think the people that are complaining about,
you know, Kanye West being censored
are the same people that are going to complain
about, you know, people censoring criticism of Islam.
I'm so sorry, but I'm a free speech absolutist,
even if I disagree with someone, say what you want to say.
So the same anger I would have if someone was banned from the country
for saying something about Islam, I believe, a political commentator called Eva,
I don't know, her last name, she was also banned from the UK.
That made me angry.
So it's also going to make...
Is Eva Vladenbrook?
Yes.
And not only that, but I just missed the days, like, in the early 2000s,
the early 90s, where we just made fun of each other.
Of course, Kanye West took it too far with the Hill Hitler song.
But there was a time where we could just make fun.
fun of each other, make stereotypes, and it was never that deep. Nobody was getting banned from
countries. So I just think people, again, need to start treating human beings as human beings and
not these robots that you program something in. And the minute the program doesn't work,
you throw them away. People make mistakes. He's apologized. He's lost everything. How much more
punishment does he need? Breaking right now, Donald Trump has resurrected his war with the British Prime
Minister Slippery Stama, because when he was asked about whether the disunited kingdom could be
resurrected this Easter, he raised the prospect of our failed leader becoming another Neville Chamberlain.
Watch.
Have you spoken with his father, so do you believe the UK could resurrects like this Easter
weekend?
Well, that's what they need.
They have a long way to go.
The UK is a long way to go.
We don't want another Neville Chamberlain.
Do we agree?
We don't want Neville Chamberlain.
Of course we don't.
But that's what we've got.
We also have a whole load of hysteria
over Trump's Truth Social Post
where he wrote Tuesday
will be Power Plant Day and Bridge Day
all wrapped up in one in Iran.
There will be nothing like it.
Open the fucking straight, you crazy bastards.
or you'll be living in hell.
Praise be to Allah, President Donald J. Trump.
And the thing is, what you get from the mainstream media
and the political class, especially in the United Kingdom,
is complete bias and hysteria.
Every time Trump either drops his metaphorical truth bomb or an actual bomb,
they still do not understand what this guy is trying to do,
but the other problem that I have is that it's a complete two-tier media system
where their coverage of Trump is of total contrast to their coverage of Joe Biden.
So for example, we got the deranged liberal Democrat leader, Ed Davy,
posting threatening war crimes and mocking Islam.
Isn't a sign of strength that's a sign of weakness.
The PM should rule out UK forces and airfields being used for any attacks on Iranian civil union infrastructure.
What more will it take?
for Sama to call off the royal visit, Trump craves.
Oh yes, Ed, mocking Islam.
Just lock him up.
How dare he?
And this is a suicidal empathy, isn't it?
From our political class who would rather see the United Kingdom punished,
who would rather see a despotic regime in Iran continue killing 45,000 protesters
simply because of a deranged hatred of Donald Trump.
And by the way, that isn't me saying that the UK's,
should get involved in this war. I'm actually in the Restore Britain camp on this. I don't think we have
the wherewithal or the resources to do that. But that also doesn't mean I buy into the total hysteria
which has currently been thrown at Trump. And I think the worst example that I saw of this was from
sly news and it's crooked and biased American correspondent, James Matthews, who doesn't even
try anymore to be a reasonable, rational broadcaster. He is a commentator masquerading as a broadcaster
on a station meant to be regulated by the off-communists. Watch this. I mean, these are the words,
surely, of somebody who is losing the argument, is seeking for new and perhaps darker methods
to resolve an intractable situation. For the 40s,
the 37th president of the United States to use these kind of terms, the F word, the B word,
undermining the civil norms of negotiation.
And we have seen how far that has taken Donald Trump at this stage.
Not very far, actually, is the answer.
And some distance from the end game, Iran is in a position where it has demonstrated military effectiveness
and throughout has resisted pressure via social media from Donald Trump.
So, you know, you're talking about a sovereign country, a sovereign nation,
proudly resisting American pressure.
How Donald Trump thinks this is going to work is a question actually for him alone.
I do think it raises questions about his state of mind
and also about his approach to this.
whole affair. If the US military and if this country is to trust in measured leadership
that protects American lives, preserves American interests, and isn't a matter of throwing
the kitchen sink at Iran with the attendant dangers that that involves, you know, essentially
burning the house down, then you have to be concerned, I think, at where he is taking this.
if that posting is a reflection of his state of mind going into this.
It sounds unhinged.
And interestingly, well, in terms of the juxtaposition, it's interesting,
I'm reading that he's spoken to Fox News, Jonathan.
He says there's a good chance of a deal being reached tomorrow.
He's repeated as threats, but reckons that there is cause for optimist.
and adding that Iran is negotiating now.
So quite how the two of those social media postings
or media performances sit together is quite missed.
Sorry, I can't.
We've got to stop.
His state of mind, you fucking propagandists,
you didn't once James Matthews,
you didn't once in four years
talk about the state of mind of Joe Biden.
Joe Biden, who was walking around like a blubbering idiot.
So you can criticize Trump for policy reasons, yes.
But let's go now to the White House and hear live from the president.
It's a great honor to be with you.
Happy Easter.
We had a great Easter.
This is one of our better Easter's, I think, in a lot of different ways.
I can say militarily, it's been one of the best.
So good afternoon. We have quite a bit to discuss. We'll go into a pretty good detail.
And we have the people that are most involved. We'll give you exactitude.
And we're here today to celebrate the success of one of the largest, most complex, most harrowing combat searches.
I guess you would call it a search and rescue mission.
Ever attempted by the military, generally when planes are knocked down,
in war, especially when you're fighting a strong group, an evil group.
You can't really do this because you send in 200 men to pick up one, and it's something
that's usually not attempted as much as you want to attempt, and bad things happen to
that one or two.
And at this case, we did two, and it might not have been attempted before.
But we did, and we got great talent, but we got a little luck, too, I would say.
And we were helped by a lot of people, a lot of great people.
And it was an honor to be involved with it.
It's very historic.
This is a rescue that's very historic.
It'll go down to the books.
Late Thursday night, an American F-15 fighter jet went down deep inside enemy territory in Iran
while participating in Operation Epic Fury, where we're doing unbelievably well.
well at a level that nobody's ever seen before.
The entire country can be taken out in one night,
and that night might be tomorrow night.
Both members of the crew ejected from the aircraft
and landed alive.
On Iranian soil, I immediately was asked to make a decision.
I ordered the U.S. Armed Forces to do whatever was necessary
to bring our brave warriors back home, a risky decision,
because we could have ended up
with 100 dead as opposed to one or two.
It's a hard decision to make.
But in the United States military, we leave no American behind.
We don't do it.
Within hours of our armed forces deployed 21 military aircraft
into hostile airspace, many flying at very low altitude
being shot by bullets.
You bring rifles into play when you go in that low,
but there are also certain advantages.
and in broad daylight over Iran for seven hours at times facing very, very heavy enemy fire.
We have a helicopter that's got a lot of bullets in it. It's amazing.
We just realized how good those weapons are, those machines there are.
Nobody has the equipment that we have, and nobody has the military that we have, not even close.
The most powerful military anywhere in the world by far.
The flight crews and warfighters aboard those aircrews,
aircraft took extraordinary risks to rescue their fellow service members.
This first wave of search and rescue forces successfully located the pilot of the F-15, and he was
extracted from enemy territory by an H-860 Jolly Green two helicopter, fabulous machine, as
there are warriors faced gunfire at very close range.
It's amazing that when you look at the machinery, what
happened, that nobody was even injured. Meanwhile, the second crew member, a weapon system
officer, highly respected colonel, had landed a significant distance away from the pilot when you're
going at those speeds, even if you go out two or three seconds later. It's miles, it's miles and
miles away, because you're going fast. He was injured quite badly and stranded in an area,
teaming with terrorists from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps
rough group, as well as besieged militia and local authorities.
Many, on top of everything else, they told the communities
actually within side of Iran, the people of Iran, they were given
a tremendous incentive to find this pilot.
Despite the peril, the officer followed his training and climbed
into the treacherous mountain terrain and started climbing toward a higher altitude, something they were trained to do in order to evade capture.
They want to always go as far away from the site of the shootdown. You want to go as far away because they all head right to that site. You want to be as far away as you can.
And he was injured, and he was an amazing, amazing thing. He scaled, clinton. He scaled, clinton.
faces, bleeding rather profusely, treated his own wounds and contacted American forces to transmit
his location.
They have a very sophisticated beeper-type apparatus that is on them at all times.
And when they go out on these missions, they make sure they have lots of battery space and
they're in good shape.
And this one worked really well, amazingly, saved his life.
We immediately mobilized a massive operation to retrieve him from the mountain holdout,
and he kept going higher and higher.
The mountain kept getting rougher and rougher, and really very, very hard to find.
The second rescue mission involved 155 aircraft, including four bombers, 64 fighters,
48 refueling tankers, 13 rescue aircraft, and more.
We were bringing them all over, and a lot of it was subterfuge.
We wanted to have them think he was in a different location
because they had a vast military force out there.
Thousands of people were looking.
So we wanted them to look in different areas.
So we were scattered all over like we were right on top of them.
We had seven different locations where they thought,
and they were very confused.
They said, well, wait a minute, they've got groups here.
They've got groups there.
amazing thing. I was listening to these great people, these great generals, General Raisin-Kane
was amazing, and Pete Hexeth was amazing. But I listened to the whole thing. It was pretty
amazing. So they had all these different sites where everybody thought he was located. We think we have
them over there because they have nine planes circling a little area. That's 25 miles down the coast.
So in a breathtaking show of skill and precision,
lethality and force, America's military descended on the area,
the real area, engaged the enemy,
rescued the stranded officer, destroyed all threats,
and exited Iranian territory while taking no casualties of any kind.
The heroic F-15 weapons system officer had evaded capture
on the ground in Iran for almost 48 hours.
That's a long time when you're in tough shape
and when you're bleeding.
It's a long time.
When we left, as you probably know,
we had two large planes, pretty old planes.
It carried a lot.
We needed a lot more equipment going in than coming out,
obviously, because going in, we needed to be able to scale
mountains, and we had a lot of equipment.
the sand was sandy wet sand. So we thought there may be a problem taking off because of the weight
of the plane. And then we also had all the men jumping back onto the planes. And they got pretty well
bogged down. And we had a contingency plan, which was unbelievable, where lighter, faster aircraft
came in and they took them out. We blew up the old planes. We blew them up to smithereens because we
We had equipment on the planes that frankly we'd like to take, but I don't think it was worth well spending another four hours there taking it off. So we didn't want anybody to have the best equipment anywhere in the world. We didn't want anybody examining our anti-aircraft and other equipment. So these were large planes that were old and pretty old, and we blew them up. And we had faster, lighter planes come in and they were able to land on the sand. We needed the bigger planes because of the
because we had so much equipment that we knew.
We took three helicopters over there,
which were very strongly used and couldn't have lived without them.
They performed unbelievably well.
And if you'd see it, you wouldn't believe it.
They came off the plane, and these guys had had them,
the rotors were off.
They rebuilt these helicopters in less than 10 minutes.
And that was one of the more amazing things.
These are helicopters.
small, unbelievably powerful, but small,
very small so he can get into certain areas.
And they got them off the plane, and they rebuilt all three of
them in a matter of less than, I would say less than 10 minutes.
It's pretty amazing.
The genius of these people, who would think that?
You'd think it would take five days to build them.
And in some companies, who would take five days,
and they wouldn't do it well.
But they served us well.
As Commander Chief, I never forget the extraordinary risk taken by the warriors that we send into battle.
And the genius, I mean, think of it, having a contingency of three planes waiting because we think the sand is so bad that we probably won't be able to take off.
And the planes really got bogged.
Sand was, this was not much of a runway.
This was a farm, not a runway.
It's a farm, but it did the trick.
but to have a contingency as opposed to having to wait two days.
Can you imagine right in the middle?
This was central.
This was right, you would call it central casting if you were doing a movie for location.
And probably the toughest area of Iran would be sitting there.
So these planes came in, those pilots came in so fast and so quick
and got out of there.
Everybody got aboard and just got 15-minute intervals.
One load out.
One load out.
One load out. One load out. The three. It happened.
And we were watching and we said that's amazing. In many ways I was I was almost more impressed by the contingency that we had than the fact that we would have had a runway or decent soil, but it was an amazing thing.
But we thank God for every single one of them and the talent. The genius is not even talent. It's genius. It's the whole ball game.
every one of them. If you look at what we did with Maduro, we went into a military compound,
a massive with thousands and thousands of soldiers, within a matter of minutes.
And he lived behind iron doors. There were steel doors, broke them down so quickly,
and within almost minutes he was in the back of these planes. It was a similar group,
credible. We have incredibly talented people. And if the time comes, we move heaven and earth
to bring them home safely.
We're going to bring our people home safely.
I want to thank every member of the U.S. armed forces involved
in these historic operations.
They really were historic.
It's just not something that's done.
And you'd understand it.
Not that they don't want to do it,
but when you're going into areas,
when you look at these helicopters,
when you look at the amount of bullets
and everything else that they took,
when you go into these areas,
you don't come out like we came out.
God was watching us to tell you,
well, it was the eastern
We were in the Easter territory, I guess.
But God was watching us.
Amazing.
Because when you look at the machinery, they took damage.
It tells you, the first thing I said,
these are unbelievable machines.
They flew back, and not even much of a problem.
But these two extraordinary rescues, because it was two.
And as you probably know, we didn't talk about the first one for an hour.
Then somebody leaked something, which will hopefully find that leaker.
We're looking very hard to find that leaker and talked about there's somebody missing.
They basically said that we have one and there's somebody missing.
Well, they didn't know there was somebody missing until this leaker gave the information.
So whoever it was, we think we'll be able to find it out because we're going to go to the media company that released it.
And we're going to say national security, give it up or go to jail.
And we know who, and you know who we're talking about.
There's some things you can't do.
Because when they did that, all of a sudden,
the entire country of Iran knew that there was a pilot
that was somewhere on their land that was fighting for his life.
And it also made it much more difficult for the pilots
and for the people going in to search for him.
All of a sudden, they know that there's some
somebody out there, they see all these planes coming in,
it became a much more difficult operation.
Because a leaker leaked that we have one,
we've rescued one, but there's another one out there
that we're trying to get.
So actually, the country, Iran,
put out a major notice, you all saw it,
offering a very big award for anybody that captures the pilot.
So in addition to a hostile,
very talented, very good, very evil military.
We had millions of people trying to get an award.
So when you add that to it, but we have to find that leaker because that's a sick person,
probably didn't realize the extent of how bad it was.
I can't imagine that the person did.
But we're going to find out it's national security.
And the person that did the story will go to jail if he doesn't say.
And that doesn't last long.
everybody would understand that. They put this mission at great risk. They put that man at great risk,
and they put the hundreds of people that went in looking for them, because everyone now knows
that we're going in. Over the past 37 days, America's armed forces have carried out more than
10,000 combat flights over Iran, unheard of, striking more than 13,000 targets. The F-15 we lost last
week was the first manned aircraft down by the enemy in this entire operation with thousands and
thousands of flights. He got lucky. It was a lucky hit. You know, eventually you get lucky. But
we got lucky too because we got both of them back. But it's a record that is unparalleled in the
history of military air operations. Nobody's ever seen anything like it. It's such an honor to be
involved with it. We were up late at night.
And then we were waiting for those contingent planes to come in and we said,
come on, let's go get in, because they're waiting out on this farm without a runway with wet,
crummy soil, sand, mostly sand, wet sand, and it eats planes alive.
And we're waiting and we're saying, I hope that one can land and take off.
And they came in like magic, boom, boom, boom, one after another.
was like genius.
I'm so impressed by that.
Because we were a little concerned.
We said, boy, if they don't get in and get up fast,
we're sitting in the middle.
And that's called Iran Prime, right, General?
That's where the whole bed is.
And here we are sitting there waiting for a plane.
But they came in so fast and so hard,
and these guys knew exactly what they let's go.
Come on, get in, let's go, po.
They came one right after another, not at the same time.
They don't want to come at the same time.
They had to come right after each other.
They didn't have any room.
There was barely any room to land.
Tiny little patch of very wet earth and sand.
So I just, I'm so proud of the people that I have standing up here with me and many others that worked.
I mean, so many.
Steve Whitkoff's over here.
He's doing fantastically.
Jared Kushner.
But the people that are here, the job they did is amazing.
And I think I'm going to introduce the hands of the hands of the people who are here.
introduce the head of the CIA, and he is a man who, he's central casting, okay?
If we cast a movie, he's going to play the head of the CIA. He's one of the few.
John Ratcliffe, he did a phenomenal job that night. He did something that, I don't know if you want to talk about it.
If you want, you can, I'm not sure he's supposed to. I'm not going to talk about it.
But he really, the CIA was very responsible for finding this little speck.
It's like they used an expression on one of the shows. A general was talking about
It's like finding a needle in a haystack finding this pilot.
And the CIA was unbelievable.
And if you can, you'll talk, it might be classified,
in which case I'd have to put him in jail if he talks about it.
And I don't want to put him in jail.
He doesn't deserve that.
So, John, do you want to say a few words?
Thank you.
Okay, so while we are waiting for Trump to face questions
from the international media,
let me bring in my brilliant superstar panel.
there they are. Lee Cohen is a foreign affairs expert based in Florida. He joins us alongside YouTube
Sensations based and Buzzi and Steph the Alternerd. Lee Cohen, there was a lot of anticipation
about this press conference and of course the questions are yet to come after Donald Trump's
post yesterday, which Marjorie Taylor Green described as
being almost unhinged. She said that everyone in his administration that claims to be a Christian
needs to fall on their knees and beg forgiveness from God and stop worshipping the president
and intervene in Trump's madness. Do you think he's proven today yet that he's not mad?
I think we have to consider the source. If that isn't the pot calling the kettle black,
I can think of few people more unhinged than Marjorie Taylor Green.
However, I don't think Trump is mad.
I think, as always, we have to take what Trump says, not literally, but seriously.
And what I'm hoping to hear Dan in this press conference, certainly President Trump gave a wonderful
elegy of that mission that truly was a needle in a haystack.
I mean, it's amazing what they did.
I want to hear more particulars about, you know, is he going to double down on the deadline where Trump out every power plant and every bridge threatened every power plant and bridge in Iran?
You know, I want to hear any further mention of the Karga Islands plans because that was a major point of strangling Iran economically.
I want to hear also if he's going to take any further jabs at Starmour and at Europe,
which I think is certainly primed to happen.
So these are the things I'm really hoping that we learn out of this press conference.
Based on Bougy, what do you think so far?
And is Donald Trump right to suggest that Slippery Starmes?
might be another Neville Chamberlain.
Going back to Trump's tweets,
I think like, sorry if I forgot your name,
but the person he was speaking...
Lee Cohen.
I'm really sorry, Lee Cohen.
I think we need to take Trump's words very, very seriously.
I have a lot of Iranian friends,
and if the people were to hear just how gruesome
the Islamic regime in Iran is,
they would be saying that what Trump said was absolutely nothing.
Trump was actually being kind.
in what he said on Twitter. I want people to understand that this Islamic regime
killed 40,000 people in one day. In one day, guys, this is a gruesome regime. This is a
regime that is literally throwing acid in women's faces for simply protesting because they don't
want to wear a headscarf. And yet people are saying that what Trump is doing is extreme.
And this is the tired talking points from the left that I am becoming very exhausted with,
is just them not being able to recognise real extremism.
When it's someone who is white, when is someone who's a male,
when it's someone who's a Christian, when it's someone who's a capitalist,
simply typing something on X, that's not extreme.
When Islamists are literally killing people in the 40,000s, oh, that's not extreme at all.
Steve, the alternate, your verdict?
My verdict so far on the, of what we've heard from Trump so far is,
yeah it's great to hear a little bit more
about the rescue attempts that were successful
fair enough
but like Lee Cohen says I want to hear more now
I want to hear more on will he now carry out his threat
come one of a better phrase D-Day
I want to know more about what his intentions are
to try and reopen the straight of Hormuz
how he's going to really
put a run in a corner to get
that to happen and to follow on a little bit from what based and bougie has been saying there
the left can kiss my backside because they're all about oh this is bad this is wrong and that's how
i hear them say now that's how i hear them talk right because they're absolutely idiots because they're
like but for me it's like well hang on a minute all right you don't want this war to happen you don't want Trump
to go in this, that and the other, but hang on a minute.
Have any of you idiots actually asked
what the Iranian people want?
For months and months and months and months,
the Iranian people are shouting,
screaming for Donald Trump to help them,
screaming for Donald Trump to militarily intervene.
And now he has done the left rule,
he's an international war criminal,
he's broke international war crimes,
we've got to take him to the egg.
Hang on a minute, you're focusing on the wrong dude here.
How about the IRGC?
They're the ones that have committed the war crimes.
Like Baste and Bushy said, 40,000 people in one day.
And that unfortunately, guys, is the tip of the iceberg.
They're still doing it to this day.
Trump is the good guy here, not the bad guy.
And then, Lee, we've got to talk about the duplicitous, deceitful mainstream media
that spent four yearsly, studiously, of all.
even the slightest coverage about the clear mental frailties,
and that is being kind of Joe Biden as president.
But now, as I showed you at the start,
you've got sly news over here saying,
oh, clearly we've got to talk about Trump's mental state.
Well, I'm sorry.
I mean, today, he has been out in front of the cameras
for hours and hours on end.
Do you Lee see anything wrong with Trump's mental state?
I'd say absolutely nothing wrong with Trump's mental state
and he puts the media
you know the mainstream media right in their place
Dan when you showed that clip of the
who was the chap from from sly news that you showed
James Matthews the US correspondent
who's as crooked and biased as they come Lee
I mean with fangs dripping
I mean I mean
this guy wants the bad guy
guys to win. He wants the guys who enslave women and who hang gays and who torture the people of
Iran who just want to live their lives like people in free societies do. He wants the victory
to go to the other side. And that is absolutely unconscionable. And it's all owing to his
massive and incomprehensible hate of Donald Trump. He doesn't care if the world goes up and
flames. He just wants to see Donald Trump fail. Yes. And oh my goodness, loving all of you on the
live chat as we await for Donald Trump to ask questions. Thank you so much. As Annabel says,
Trump's mental state, after demented Joe Biden, are you flipping kidding?
Mirror 893 just says sly news. Bastards. Paul says Trump.
Trump has his faculties and Vicki Gonzalez says Trump is awesome for the American people.
So lots of interesting comments coming in on the live chat as we await this live press conference where I think Donald Trump is going to be hit hard.
isn't he stiff because people are so furious about that truth social post?
He always gets hit hard really at the end of the day.
Mainstream media is always out to get him.
So whatever angle they can try and go at to try and corner him, they're going to try.
Their problem is, is that they always fail because Trump seems to always be two,
three steps ahead of them.
So I'm actually looking forward to it
and seeing Trump completely expose the fraudsters in mainstream media yet again
because for those that are turning around and they're like,
oh, don't you think what you're doing is in Iran is wrong, this that and the other?
That kind of questioning,
it's as if they're like the propagandists for the Islamic regime.
No, it's not wrong.
It's the right thing for Trump to be doing
what he's doing in Iran at the moment.
You should be supporting your president in this
because the Iranian people wanted this to happen in the first place.
So instead of questioning his so-called faculties, this, that and the other,
actually support him and be like, okay, what's going to happen next?
Get the factual information instead of trying to spin it
and be all negative Trump against him.
Because that's not going to help anything.
It's not going to further matters at all.
No, I mean, the problem is...
Well, stead, Steph.
Yes, honestly.
The problem is, though, based, right?
The media, the mainstream media, do have trumped arrangement syndrome.
And it sounds like such a boring thing to say, but it's like, come on, they're actually
getting worse, not better.
They're getting worse, but it's actually working against them because this is a man that
literally got shot and stood up and said, fight, fight, fight, fight.
Well, a lot of people are now saying that's faked.
Oh, my gosh, so ridiculous.
saw the fear in his eyes like that. You can't tell me that. I can, I know when someone died.
Someone died. Someone literally died. A Trump supporter died. But they're now trying to say that whole thing
was fake. Right. And you cannot tell me that was fake. And I just think that it's working against
their favour because you see hundreds of thousands of Iranians on Instagram and on social media
basically explaining just how gruesome the Islamic regime is in Iran. And then you have people on
the left side of the media saying, no, actually it's good for the Iranians. They're over-examining.
No, they need this. Who are these people to tell the Iranians what they need? I hate this behaviour.
For instance, I saw recent posts by Candace Owen. She said something along the lines of
the Trump administration is acting very satanic. So wait, the 40,000 people who were killed in Iran by the Islamic regime, that wasn't satanic.
Women being thrown acid in their face, that isn't satanic. I'm so tired of people trying to tell other people how to feel and what's best for them.
The Iranians have been screaming for the top of the lung for the last 47 years.
for some kind of support from the West,
Trump has intervened, that Iranians are unhappy,
and then you have left this media having a nerve to say,
no, actually Trump is doing the wrong thing.
I'm not going to swear, but these people seriously need to F themselves.
Lee, it is interesting, though,
because this split on the right in the United States
has been vicious, and it was coming.
We've seen it coming,
ever since the split over the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the people who say that unless you're condemning Candice Owens, for example, you're not a true conservative, which has meant that previous coalitions between, for example, my friend Megan Kelly and the likes of Ben Chippero at the Daily Wire are now well and truly over.
and this war, Lee, seems to be another fault line.
And actually, even though Donald Trump said earlier today at the White House,
100% of MAGA are behind the war in Iran,
that isn't true, is it, Lee?
Because he did go into office promising the end of forever wars.
And the problem is, at this point,
there doesn't seem to be an exit strategy.
No, I think you're precisely right.
I certainly don't think 100% are behind.
and I don't know exactly what the numbers look like.
But these fault lines are dangerous, Dan.
There's no question about it.
And I would love to see us all singing more from the same song sheet, particularly
with what is at stake here.
You know, I feel blessed to be in such good company as Steph and based in you because I
feel among very logical people.
who might not agree on everything, but, you know, see the light and see the importance of the mission.
And I think that's what's really important.
And these sort of internissine struggles between who's trying to grab the spotlight are just really not helpful when we consider that this war for the West, if you will.
I don't think that's painting the stakes too high is really what's unfolding before our eyes.
Okay, I'm going to put all three of you on the spot.
Steph, what would you ask Donald Trump?
We know the mainstream media are going to ask some appalling questions in the next few minutes.
You're in the White House briefing room.
What do you ask Trump?
What I would ask Trump is, once he has overthrown the Islamic regime,
what plan is in place to set around?
on the right track as per the will of the people, as per the will of the Iranians.
Good question. Lee, what about you?
I would ask with certainty how we will know that Iran will never be capable of seeing through
its most dangerous plans, which is to nuclearize and threaten its neighbors and threaten
the world. That's what concerns me most.
What about you?
I would ask him, once he's done with the Islamic regime in Iran,
can he get rid of the Islamic regime in Parliament and the United States of the entire of the Islamification of the UK?
That's my main concern, this country and the betterment of this country.
Well, yeah, and he's so concerned about it too.
By the way, just to let you know, as soon as Donald Trump is asked these questions and goes back to the podium,
we will, of course, go back to the White House.
currently Dan Kane, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, is speaking.
But for me, do you know what?
I want Trump to go into more detail about how seriously he now views the potential of the US
withdrawing from NATO in light of NATO's lack of support over this Iranian mission.
Like, is this just an empty threat?
Or is he seriously saying that there is a potential end?
to that union, which obviously has really held together some degree of peace for decades.
And I'd also want to ask him, Lee, about how the special relationship can possibly recover from this.
Like, is it literally a case now of it's all over before we get a new prime minister?
Because, Lee, you are also a royal commentator, and we have the specter of this state visit.
by King Charles to Washington, D.C.
at a time when Donald Trump is utterly furious with the United Kingdom,
furious with the Prime Minister.
Well, Dan, very good questions.
What I'd like to say by way of answering is that Donald Trump is not furious with the UK.
He is furious with the bad leadership that the UK has in place.
furious with Kier Starrmer. He is furious with the labor managed decline of the country that he loves,
that I love, that really is the birth of everything that's good about the United States at its
greatest point, the gift of our inheritance of freedom and our legal system, et cetera. And Kier
armor has so polluted that, it's disgusting. But I'd like to say for the record that how glorious
it is, Dan, to have in Donald Trump, if the UK can't get rid of labor before 2029, and I pray
that something will happen because that's a long ways to wait with the kind of destruction
that we're seeing unfolding, at least we have the voice of Donald Trump making sure that the
world knows how incompetent and how Britain last and how prioritizing the West last,
Stramer is performing.
Okay, yeah, I think that is a very, very good point, a very, very good point.
I mean, definitely we would like a general election, but at this point, I don't think
that is going to happen.
And it is interesting, isn't it, Steph, because you're a restore Britain support.
and Rupert Lowe has, I think, quite smartly leaned away from Donald Trump over this conflict,
but not in the same way that, for example, the Greens necessarily attack Trump.
But by saying, well, of course, we're not in a position to get involved in the war.
Well, no, militarily, we're not.
I remember, I think it was like a couple of years ago, the UK,
did a little bit of a war game, a test,
if let's say the Chinese wanted to invade our country
using cyber tech, what would happen?
And if I remember rightly, it was reported
that the UK would fall in a matter of hours.
And in all honesty, when we had like a couple of weeks ago,
one of our military boats
not actually set in sale
because those at the docks
they only works 9-05
like seriously
we're also giving away
or trying to give away
which is ridiculous
the Chegos Islands
yeah
militarily we are not the superpower
that we once were
and that's not only because of
Stama
but you can go all the way back to Blair
with the Iraq War
and the Afghanistan War
that completely decimated, it does militarily.
And then in terms of, you know, the Tories,
they really gutted it out
because of all of the cutbacks
because of, you know,
austerity measures, this, that and the other
to where we are now,
where we're giving billions away
to what is,
Is it Ukraine, when really we need those billions to rebuild our own military
and get back to the strength where we were before?
We're not investing in our own military.
We're investing in other countries' military.
I mean, it's absolutely backwards.
Indeed, just to let everyone know,
we are awaiting Donald Trump taking questions
during this bombshell White House press conference.
Before we get there, though,
I am going to reveal today's greatest Britain and union jackass
because myself and Steph and Baste and Buzi have been battling it out to be named the worst Britain in the world today.
A reminder of the nomination, Steph went for King Charles for not providing an Easter message on camera.
Baste went for Kirstama because he's been shaking hands with a serial killer while being silent on the grooming gangs.
And I went for Megan Markle for creepy Instagram posts of her kids over Easter.
Do you know what? Only 4% of you went for my choice today, Ms. Markle,
The runner-up with 43% and this has to be a record the first time that he has been nominated,
but not won, is Sir Kea Stama nominated by Baste and Buzi,
which means you're very angry and I do understand it about King Charles's failure to release an Easter message.
He is today's union jackass with 53% of the vote.
Wow, that is a surprise.
And Baste and Buzi, you have nominated.
our greatest Britain today, and it is someone who we spoke about earlier in this show.
Do you want to reveal who and why?
Yes, his name is, forgive me for...
Walker Smith.
Walker Smith, there he is.
That is the greatest Britain of the UK for 2026 because he had the audacity to actually impose law and order and lawless Sadie Khan's London.
I just cannot believe that someone actually got arrested for trying to stop a theft.
Like it blows my mind.
And you know what?
The reason why I awarded him the greatest return is because I actually worked in the industry.
I've been very transparent about this where we used to help, you know, a lot of migrants get back into work.
And a lot of them was not serious.
We saw a lot of them taking the absolute make-out of the system.
And we couldn't do anything about it.
If we did anything about it, we could potentially lose our job because everything is about multiculturalism and diversity is our strength.
So I applaud him for actually having the strength to impose law and order.
I can't believe I'm even seeing this.
Yeah.
I don't think he was arrested, but he was sacked.
And it was utterly insane and absolutely infuriating.
Lots of comments coming in.
And again, I do remind you as soon as Trump is up,
taking questions at the White House.
We will bring you that entire stream.
But lots of comments coming in from you today as well.
Helen O.D. says, Dan, you are too polite.
Carol Vorderman isn't nutty, a bit of centric but sweet.
She's a nasty, full-blower narcissist.
And do you know what, Helen, I love you,
because people are usually telling me I'm too mean to Vorderman,
but you are totally right.
I couldn't agree more.
Joyce Martin 649 says,
I believe everyone is getting very ahead of themselves.
There is another three years to go.
A week in politics is a long time.
That's in terms of the fact
the Greens are leading in the polls and reform UK have slumped.
Roxanna 88 says reform will merge with Tories.
That's not uniting the right.
That's the same centre left we've always had.
Barbara Cleverley says, yes, Dan, bots don't cough up cash.
Okay, we're going to go back to the White House.
Thank you, Basin Buzzi.
Thank you, Steph for the alternate.
Thank you, Lee Cohen.
We're going to go back to the White House for Donald Trump taking questions.
