  1. That was a splendid story, Thank you. Your final sentence echoed something I heard in another podcast earlier today: the man said we had become a "I'm Alright, Jack" society. People have "kept their heads down" until now it is no longer possible to do so. They have become afraid now for themselves.

  2. Terrific stuff! Dr. Starkey articulates wonderfully well why I, as an Englishman, feel as I do. Proud in my nationality and history but widely and gratuitously vilified, usually by ignoramuses and/or ungrateful immigrants or those of immigrant stock. UK passports are, it seems to me, handed out far, far too easily. Dr. Starkey's anecdote about attending the Jewish Passover was very meaningful, to me at least. I don't agree with all he said about deindustrialisation. It certainly has meant that the cars we drive, the clothes we wear, even most of the weapons we deploy, are imported. That is obviously leading to vulnerability and exploitation by enemies and bad actors. His analysis of the modern realisation of "Human Rights" is deeply worrying because it is morally wrong. By the way, on that topic of removal power from Parliament, there are far too many Quangos, far too many folk with real power who are totally without a foundation of having being elected. Dr. Starkey's description of Starmer as a man totally driven by "Rules" is clearly accurate, and depressing to think on.
