1 0:00:00 --> 0:00:13 So there is in the Australian media, I'm certainly enjoying watching Sean Hannity going on Sky 2 0:00:13 --> 0:00:21 here in Australia and Laura Ingraham and some wonderful, wonderful material. 3 0:00:21 --> 0:00:27 And you know, I urge all of you to appreciate the good things that Trump does and stop expecting 4 0:00:27 --> 0:00:28 perfection. 5 0:00:29 --> 0:00:31 Yeah, I like lefties losing it. 6 0:00:32 --> 0:00:33 Isn't it fantastic? 7 0:00:35 --> 0:00:41 And so, you know, the perfect is the enemy of good. 8 0:00:41 --> 0:00:47 It is good, as I said a couple of days ago, that men can't compete against women in sport. 9 0:00:47 --> 0:00:49 It's good that the borders are shut. 10 0:00:49 --> 0:00:52 It's good that children's trafficking is being attacked. 11 0:00:52 --> 0:00:53 Right? 12 0:00:53 --> 0:00:58 And, and to then say, yeah, but well, no, you know, it is a, it's 13 0:00:59 --> 0:01:00 classic line. 14 0:01:00 --> 0:01:01 You can always find shit in life. 15 0:01:01 --> 0:01:03 If you look for shit, there's plenty of shit. 16 0:01:03 --> 0:01:06 If you focus on shit, your life will be shit. 17 0:01:06 --> 0:01:08 So anyway, that's a message for the recording. 18 0:01:08 --> 0:01:11 So let's get this show on the road. 19 0:01:11 --> 0:01:15 Welcome to everybody to Medical Doctors for COVID Ethics International. 20 0:01:15 --> 0:01:21 In today's discussion, this group was founded by Dr. Steven Frost almost four years ago 21 0:01:21 --> 0:01:27 with a desire to pursue truth, ethics, justice, freedom and health. 22 0:01:27 --> 0:01:32 Steven has stood up against government and power over the years and has been a whistleblower 23 0:01:32 --> 0:01:35 and activist, his medical specialty is radiology. 24 0:01:35 --> 0:01:42 At this time, we remember Rainer Fulmick unlawfully incarcerated in a German jail, undergoing a 25 0:01:42 --> 0:01:43 show trial. 26 0:01:43 --> 0:01:48 We call on his immediate release from jail. 27 0:01:48 --> 0:01:55 Publicize his situation as much as you are able. 28 0:01:55 --> 0:01:58 I'm Charles Coviss, the moderator of this group. 29 0:01:58 --> 0:02:00 I'm Australasian passion provocateur. 30 0:02:00 --> 0:02:04 We love passionate people here and there are plenty of passionate people. 31 0:02:04 --> 0:02:08 I practiced law for 30 years, 20 years before changing career 31 years ago and over the 32 0:02:08 --> 0:02:14 last 14 years, I've helped parents and viewers to strategize remedies for vaccine damage 33 0:02:14 --> 0:02:17 and damage from bad medical advice. 34 0:02:17 --> 0:02:22 Bad medical advice is now the number one killer of people in America, ahead of heart attacks 35 0:02:22 --> 0:02:24 and cancer and diabetes. 36 0:02:24 --> 0:02:28 I'm also the CEO of an industrial hemp company. 37 0:02:28 --> 0:02:32 We comprise lots of professions here and we're from all around the world. 38 0:02:32 --> 0:02:34 Many of us thought that vaccines were okay. 39 0:02:34 --> 0:02:40 Now, many of us proudly say, yes, we are passionate anti-vaxxers. 40 0:02:40 --> 0:02:45 And as the evidence of Stanley Plotkin, the alleged godfather of vaccines in America has 41 0:02:45 --> 0:02:51 confirmed, no vaccine ever in the history of mankind has been properly tested for safety 42 0:02:51 --> 0:02:54 or efficacy, safety and efficacy. 43 0:02:54 --> 0:02:56 None, none, zero. 44 0:02:56 --> 0:03:02 If this is your first time here, welcome and feel free to introduce yourself in the chat 45 0:03:02 --> 0:03:03 and where you're from. 46 0:03:03 --> 0:03:07 If you publish a newsletter or a podcast or you have a radio TV show, put it in the chat 47 0:03:07 --> 0:03:09 so we can follow you. 48 0:03:09 --> 0:03:13 Most of us understand we're in the middle of World War III and the medical science battle 49 0:03:13 --> 0:03:17 is only one of 12 battle fronts of this latest world war. 50 0:03:17 --> 0:03:20 I assess we're five years into a seven year war. 51 0:03:20 --> 0:03:25 So gird your loins everybody, be up for the next two years and look after your health. 52 0:03:25 --> 0:03:28 There's nothing more important as I've got a friend of mine with a beautiful young wife 53 0:03:28 --> 0:03:36 who's going through some cancer problem and that's when you realise health is pretty good 54 0:03:36 --> 0:03:39 thing to have. 55 0:03:39 --> 0:03:42 As the Dalai Lama would say, you Westerners are crazy. 56 0:03:42 --> 0:03:48 You spend your, you spend your health chasing wealth and then when you've got your health, 57 0:03:48 --> 0:03:53 you want to use it to get your wealth back. 58 0:03:53 --> 0:03:56 Most of us understand the development of science and the science is never settled. 59 0:03:56 --> 0:04:00 The meeting runs for two and a half hours after which for those with the time, Tom Rodman 60 0:04:00 --> 0:04:02 runs a video telegram meeting. 61 0:04:02 --> 0:04:05 Tom puts the links into the chat if you're able to join. 62 0:04:05 --> 0:04:09 We'll listen to our guest presenter today, Alexander Makouris, who I will introduce in 63 0:04:09 --> 0:04:12 the moment for as long as Alex wishes to speak. 64 0:04:12 --> 0:04:17 And then we have Q&A, Stephen Frost, by long established tradition, asks the first questions 65 0:04:17 --> 0:04:19 for 15 minutes. 66 0:04:19 --> 0:04:22 This is a free speech environment with appropriate moderating. 67 0:04:22 --> 0:04:28 Free speech is crucially important in our fight to preserve our human freedoms. 68 0:04:28 --> 0:04:32 Some of you, some of you have yet to learn what appropriate moderating is, but as the 69 0:04:32 --> 0:04:35 years go on, it's getting better. 70 0:04:35 --> 0:04:38 If you're offended by anything, be offended. 71 0:04:38 --> 0:04:40 We are lovingly not interested. 72 0:04:40 --> 0:04:45 We reject the offence industry that requires nobody to say anything that may offend another. 73 0:04:45 --> 0:04:47 Similarly, we reject the triggering industry. 74 0:04:47 --> 0:04:51 Don't you dare say anything, Alexander, that may trigger someone to do something. 75 0:04:51 --> 0:04:56 They are both fraudulent attacks on free speech. 76 0:04:56 --> 0:04:59 However, we come with an attitude and perspective of love, not fear. 77 0:04:59 --> 0:05:01 Fear is the opposite of love. 78 0:05:01 --> 0:05:03 Fear squashes you and enslaves you. 79 0:05:03 --> 0:05:06 Love, on the other hand, expands you and liberates you. 80 0:05:06 --> 0:05:13 And I might say, fear, as many of you know, fear also makes you very unhealthy. 81 0:05:13 --> 0:05:14 It makes you sick. 82 0:05:14 --> 0:05:17 It drives disease in your body. 83 0:05:17 --> 0:05:21 So come from love, not fear. 84 0:05:21 --> 0:05:23 These twice weekly meetings are not just talkfists. 85 0:05:23 --> 0:05:27 An extraordinary range of actions and initiatives have been generated from linkages made by 86 0:05:27 --> 0:05:29 attendees in these meetings. 87 0:05:29 --> 0:05:32 If you have a solution or a product or links or resources that will help people put the 88 0:05:32 --> 0:05:37 details in the chat, the meeting is recorded and is uploaded onto the Rumble channel. 89 0:05:37 --> 0:05:40 Now welcome to our guest presenter today, Alexander McCourus. 90 0:05:41 --> 0:05:46 We thank you, Alexander, for giving us your time and sharing your wisdom and insights. 91 0:05:46 --> 0:05:53 And for the purposes of the recording, I will give you a little bit of a little bit of your 92 0:05:53 --> 0:05:57 interesting background and you can tell us some more of that depending on where your 93 0:05:57 --> 0:05:59 mood takes you. 94 0:05:59 --> 0:06:05 So Alexander was born in Athens in Greece on the 20th of March, 1961, everybody. 95 0:06:05 --> 0:06:08 So the 20th of March, send him a birthday card, put it in your diary. 96 0:06:08 --> 0:06:13 He arrived in London in September 1968 when he was seven years of age. 97 0:06:13 --> 0:06:17 He educated at the University College London, graduated B.A. 98 0:06:17 --> 0:06:22 Modern History and First Class Honours in 1982 when he was 21. 99 0:06:22 --> 0:06:29 He passed his solicitor finals in 1987 and was called to the bar in 2006. 100 0:06:29 --> 0:06:34 He was a political adviser, speechwriter to the Minister of Culture in Greece, 1981 to 101 0:06:34 --> 0:06:36 1994. 102 0:06:36 --> 0:06:40 In private legal practice for 10 years, he was duty solicitor through all the courts of 103 0:06:40 --> 0:06:43 justice for nine years. 104 0:06:43 --> 0:06:48 He's been a writer, commentator on Russian and world affairs for the last 12 years. 105 0:06:48 --> 0:06:56 He's the co-founder of the Duran website, 2016 and the Duran channel, 2018. 106 0:06:56 --> 0:07:00 So wonderful background. Interesting. 107 0:07:00 --> 0:07:05 My background is Hungarian, Alexander, although I'm both I was born in Australia, but both 108 0:07:05 --> 0:07:09 parents are Hungarians, president of the Australia Hungry Chamber of Commerce. 109 0:07:09 --> 0:07:13 And it's wonderful having that exposure to a couple of cultures. 110 0:07:13 --> 0:07:18 And the only culture, as you well know, as an expert on culture, is the culture in 111 0:07:18 --> 0:07:22 yoghurt. But anyway, you can explain culture to us, Stephen. 112 0:07:22 --> 0:07:28 Thank you for creating this group and for organising Alexander to be with us today. 113 0:07:28 --> 0:07:32 Alexander, over to you and you can share your screen if you wish. 114 0:07:32 --> 0:07:34 Alexander, can I just say a quick word to Charles? 115 0:07:34 --> 0:07:44 So I noticed that President Trump has there's been an executive order to restore plastic 116 0:07:44 --> 0:07:45 straws in America. Did you see that? 117 0:07:47 --> 0:07:50 I did. Well, it's highly significant, I think. 118 0:07:52 --> 0:07:57 And I was wondering, Charles, whether you think we should try to get a message to Trump 119 0:07:57 --> 0:08:02 and ask him whether you could create an executive order to order Germany to release the 120 0:08:02 --> 0:08:03 Ranapalmik. 121 0:08:04 --> 0:08:08 Yes, there is an excellent idea and there are steps being taken to that end. 122 0:08:08 --> 0:08:13 And people are writing to Donald Trump, people are linked in this meeting. 123 0:08:14 --> 0:08:16 I know that they've been doing that. 124 0:08:16 --> 0:08:19 And what is clear is that we have to make noise. 125 0:08:19 --> 0:08:22 So let's make noise. 126 0:08:22 --> 0:08:24 And it's our connections and there's so many things to do. 127 0:08:24 --> 0:08:29 But I think the plastic straw paper straw is a beautiful tip of the spear example of 128 0:08:29 --> 0:08:30 300 Spartans. 129 0:08:31 --> 0:08:33 Let's find the pressure point. 130 0:08:33 --> 0:08:37 I remind you all, how does a lion kill an elephant? 131 0:08:38 --> 0:08:40 Because a lion can't kill an elephant. 132 0:08:40 --> 0:08:46 What the lion does is take a bite out of an elephant's foot and waits for the elephant 133 0:08:46 --> 0:08:47 to bleed to death. 134 0:08:49 --> 0:08:54 Plastic straws, paper straws, this whole climate emergency fraud can bleed to 135 0:08:54 --> 0:09:00 death. And perhaps plastic straws are going to be the lion's bite that brings the 136 0:09:00 --> 0:09:04 elephant down because there are so many people making so much money making our lives 137 0:09:04 --> 0:09:08 miserable in the name of a fraudulent climate emergency. 138 0:09:08 --> 0:09:11 And I say that for those of you watching the recording who think I'm ignorant, I've 139 0:09:11 --> 0:09:17 been a trustee of a renewable energy company since 1992, 22 years, and I've been an 140 0:09:17 --> 0:09:20 owner of an organic farm for 49 years since 1976. 141 0:09:21 --> 0:09:24 So I have a debate with anybody about the nonsense of climate emergency. 142 0:09:24 --> 0:09:26 There is no such thing. 143 0:09:26 --> 0:09:30 So the plastic straw, that's a good metaphor, Stephen, plastic straw and rhino formic. 144 0:09:31 --> 0:09:33 Alexander, let's go. 145 0:09:34 --> 0:09:37 We're all ears for as long as you wish to speak to us. 146 0:09:37 --> 0:09:39 And we love GA. Well, you know what we love. 147 0:09:40 --> 0:09:41 I know exactly what you love. 148 0:09:42 --> 0:09:44 A lot, lots of things to say. 149 0:09:44 --> 0:09:49 Firstly, talking about free speech, talking about freedom. 150 0:09:49 --> 0:09:53 I think I just wanted to say a few things about myself, which I haven't mentioned, 151 0:09:53 --> 0:09:54 which wasn't in that bio. 152 0:09:55 --> 0:09:57 Briefly, we were talking about freedom. 153 0:09:58 --> 0:10:05 The reason I came to London in 1968 was because there was a military coup in my country. 154 0:10:05 --> 0:10:08 That's the same Greece in 1967. 155 0:10:08 --> 0:10:13 My parents were opposed to the military government. 156 0:10:13 --> 0:10:15 They were out of the country. 157 0:10:15 --> 0:10:16 I was not. 158 0:10:17 --> 0:10:23 I was six and I was placed in detention, house arrest for one and a half years. 159 0:10:23 --> 0:10:30 So when that starts, when that starts in your life, you begin to think about lots of things. 160 0:10:30 --> 0:10:33 You worry about freedom, obviously, liberty. 161 0:10:33 --> 0:10:35 You can't leave your home. 162 0:10:35 --> 0:10:37 You can't go to see movies. 163 0:10:37 --> 0:10:40 You can't walk with your family out in a park. 164 0:10:40 --> 0:10:42 You can't do those kind of things. 165 0:10:42 --> 0:10:44 So that makes you think about freedom. 166 0:10:44 --> 0:10:50 It also makes you think about issues of power and due process and all of those things, 167 0:10:50 --> 0:10:53 because, of course, dictatorships can be very arbitrary things. 168 0:10:53 --> 0:11:01 When I came to Britain in 1968 as a child of seven, it was quite extraordinary to experience 169 0:11:01 --> 0:11:07 suddenly the extraordinary access of freedom that I found in England at that time. 170 0:11:08 --> 0:11:14 And one of the most remarkable things that has happened since then is that especially 171 0:11:14 --> 0:11:22 over the last 30 years, with every single year that passes, with every single month 172 0:11:22 --> 0:11:25 that passes, you see that freedom gradually whittle away. 173 0:11:25 --> 0:11:32 It's not as bad as I remember it being in Greece when I was a child. 174 0:11:32 --> 0:11:37 We're not in a dictatorship yet, but it is becoming more like one all the time. 175 0:11:38 --> 0:11:43 And also, obviously, dictatorships do not like free speech. 176 0:11:43 --> 0:11:44 That is a given. 177 0:11:45 --> 0:11:50 But dictatorships get offended by free speech. 178 0:11:50 --> 0:11:54 And what you were saying in your introduction about the fact that sometimes 179 0:11:55 --> 0:12:01 people will say things that are offensive, but that is a function of free speech. 180 0:12:02 --> 0:12:04 Well, that used to be fully understood. 181 0:12:05 --> 0:12:10 And it was part of the legal theory of free speech, that the very nature of free speech 182 0:12:10 --> 0:12:15 was the ability to say things that other people will find offensive. 183 0:12:16 --> 0:12:18 Now, that has been challenged. 184 0:12:18 --> 0:12:20 It's challenged every day. 185 0:12:20 --> 0:12:26 It's challenged by the mayor of London, Mr. Sadiq Khan, who says that the purpose 186 0:12:26 --> 0:12:29 of speech is to ensure that people are comfortable. 187 0:12:30 --> 0:12:34 Comfortable being, of course, the opposite of being offended. 188 0:12:34 --> 0:12:41 So if you say things that might offend people, you're making them uncomfortable. 189 0:12:41 --> 0:12:44 And that is wrong, or so we're told. 190 0:12:44 --> 0:12:53 And increasingly, it is the target of, if you like, the new law. 191 0:12:53 --> 0:13:00 Because speech has been radically, the laws on speech in England have been radically 192 0:13:00 --> 0:13:03 shifted over the last 30 years. 193 0:13:03 --> 0:13:09 Now, this summer, something very extraordinary, rather frightening happened in Britain. 194 0:13:09 --> 0:13:11 I just want to speak about this too. 195 0:13:11 --> 0:13:16 And that is that there was an incident, there was a violent incident involving a man who 196 0:13:16 --> 0:13:18 stabbed three children. 197 0:13:18 --> 0:13:19 That led to various protests. 198 0:13:20 --> 0:13:23 Not, I think, very big protests. 199 0:13:25 --> 0:13:29 There was a huge outcry orchestrated by the government itself. 200 0:13:30 --> 0:13:32 There was talk about riots. 201 0:13:32 --> 0:13:41 I can say quite certainly that there were very few riots, extremely little violence, 202 0:13:41 --> 0:13:48 probably no more violence over the course of the summer than one saw happen in Britain 203 0:13:48 --> 0:13:49 generally. 204 0:13:49 --> 0:13:51 In Britain, we often get riots in the summer. 205 0:13:52 --> 0:13:54 But people were arrested. 206 0:13:54 --> 0:13:57 They were put through what you might call assembly line justice. 207 0:13:58 --> 0:14:01 Cases were decided within half an hour. 208 0:14:01 --> 0:14:02 People were sent to prison. 209 0:14:03 --> 0:14:06 Really quite astonishing things were done. 210 0:14:06 --> 0:14:11 And now we get increasingly people prosecuted for what they put up on social media. 211 0:14:12 --> 0:14:15 Inconsequential, unimportant things. 212 0:14:15 --> 0:14:18 But they get attacked for it all the time. 213 0:14:18 --> 0:14:22 And of course, all of this has come and it is not a coincidence. 214 0:14:22 --> 0:14:28 After the events of the so-called pandemic, the restrictions that took place then, which 215 0:14:28 --> 0:14:32 were, of course, also ferociously opposed. 216 0:14:32 --> 0:14:38 So with every day, I see that free speech that we used to have gradually whittled away 217 0:14:38 --> 0:14:39 in Britain. 218 0:14:39 --> 0:14:45 It is a country which prides itself on having been a pioneer in free speech. 219 0:14:46 --> 0:14:48 But no more or so it seems to me. 220 0:14:48 --> 0:14:50 So that is what I wanted to say. 221 0:14:50 --> 0:14:51 Excellent, Alexander. 222 0:14:51 --> 0:14:57 So Alexander, I have not had a chance to speak to you, but I would have asked you whether 223 0:14:57 --> 0:15:03 you wanted to make a presentation or whether you wanted to take questions from the press 224 0:15:03 --> 0:15:04 or from the press. 225 0:15:04 --> 0:15:10 I have just made a small presentation, but I can, I mean, if people want to ask me questions, 226 0:15:10 --> 0:15:15 I am very happy to, both from you and from everyone else, about the situation in Britain, 227 0:15:15 --> 0:15:19 about how changes have happened, about the situation in the world. 228 0:15:19 --> 0:15:26 I should say, this is perhaps a presentation, but we are in a period of extraordinary change. 229 0:15:26 --> 0:15:30 And I think that is what we are going to be doing in the future. 230 0:15:30 --> 0:15:35 Perhaps a presentation, but we are in a period of extraordinary change. 231 0:15:35 --> 0:15:39 Alexander, I have got a question now, which I will forget if I do not ask now. 232 0:15:39 --> 0:15:48 And that is, do you think that what happened in 2020, i.e. global coup d'etat, was necessary, 233 0:15:48 --> 0:15:54 was absolutely necessary for the Southport incident which you talked about, you know, 234 0:15:55 --> 0:16:01 the killing of three children and the subsequent riots which were not riots, 235 0:16:01 --> 0:16:05 and the cancelling of free speech and the cancelling of justice. 236 0:16:05 --> 0:16:10 Do you think that would have been, would it have been possible for that to happen 237 0:16:10 --> 0:16:15 without what happened in 2020, i.e. the lockdowns and the isolation of human beings? 238 0:16:16 --> 0:16:25 I think that events, the lockdown, the isolation of human beings was part of a trend 239 0:16:25 --> 0:16:29 that had already begun before. And I think that is an important thing to say. 240 0:16:30 --> 0:16:33 Restrictions on social media, for example, were already being imposed. 241 0:16:34 --> 0:16:40 Restrictions on protests. There was a major turning point in the late 1990s, 242 0:16:40 --> 0:16:45 at the time when the Blair government started to introduce various restrictions. 243 0:16:45 --> 0:16:55 But there is no doubt whatsoever that the events of 2020 were a huge step forward in that process. 244 0:16:56 --> 0:17:02 And we have never been the same country since that we were before. 245 0:17:02 --> 0:17:08 I mean, it has been a dramatic shift, and a dramatic shift towards government and governmental power, 246 0:17:08 --> 0:17:13 and it also showed to government that they could impose restrictions of that nature, 247 0:17:13 --> 0:17:17 and they could do it, that there would be minimal process if they did it. 248 0:17:18 --> 0:17:25 So, Alexander, have you worked out why it is that there has been such a dramatic change in the UK, 249 0:17:25 --> 0:17:31 in particular? And are you aware of the significance of isolating human beings? 250 0:17:31 --> 0:17:36 So I'm a doctor, you're not, I don't think. But I, we were taught this at medical school, 251 0:17:36 --> 0:17:40 you must not isolate human beings. It's extremely dangerous. 252 0:17:40 --> 0:17:45 So we were lucky to have a professor who could talk about that, but he talked about 253 0:17:45 --> 0:17:51 isolation in prisons, and then they decided to isolate human beings all around the world, 254 0:17:52 --> 0:17:58 in every country just about. And I could see, it took me a while to realise it, but 255 0:17:59 --> 0:18:03 I was really exercised about the injections. But actually, I think now that 256 0:18:03 --> 0:18:09 it was the isolation of human beings and the breaking of habits, because human beings are very, 257 0:18:09 --> 0:18:14 how shall I say, they're very in love with their own habits, and they don't change them easily. 258 0:18:14 --> 0:18:18 But when they have a break of, say, even a month, that's enough to break their habits 259 0:18:18 --> 0:18:24 of a lifetime, and they can't get back, they can't find themselves. I just wonder what you think 260 0:18:24 --> 0:18:29 about the, you know, had you appreciated the importance of isolating human beings? 261 0:18:29 --> 0:18:33 And was it a deliberate strategy on behalf of all these governments? 262 0:18:33 --> 0:18:38 Well, it was a deliberate, I think it was a, I think it was a deliberate strategy. I don't mean 263 0:18:38 --> 0:18:43 that every single official of the governments were, you know, united behind it, or every single 264 0:18:43 --> 0:18:50 minister was. But certainly, I do think that there was an agenda being played out during that time, 265 0:18:50 --> 0:18:56 and the machinery, the mechanics of it had already been prepared for some time. And I have no doubt 266 0:18:56 --> 0:19:01 of this at all. I mean, the fact that it was done, that it was unrolled so fast, so quickly, 267 0:19:01 --> 0:19:08 in so many places, it's not something that is improvised at the last moment or happens 268 0:19:08 --> 0:19:15 spontaneously. By the way, if you've worked as I did for 12 years in all courts of justice, 269 0:19:15 --> 0:19:21 you've seen that when things like that do happen, people do discuss them in advance. There is 270 0:19:21 --> 0:19:30 planning and discussion and that kind of thing. I've been surprised repeatedly to find that things 271 0:19:32 --> 0:19:39 which happen not only are planned in advance, but they're discussed quite openly in advance. 272 0:19:39 --> 0:19:45 I've seen that many times. Now about isolation. Remember, I'm Greek. I was brought up in a very 273 0:19:45 --> 0:19:54 old fashioned way. I remember being taught that Aristotle said that humanity, that people are 274 0:19:54 --> 0:20:02 social animals. That is the nature of us, that we are social animals. In Greece, again, 275 0:20:02 --> 0:20:10 and I'm talking about, you know, by heritage, we have this concept of polytheia. Polytheia, 276 0:20:10 --> 0:20:17 which of course evolves into politics, is a much, much more social thing than this. It involves 277 0:20:17 --> 0:20:24 the bringing together of the community. It isn't just about politics. It is about life. 278 0:20:24 --> 0:20:31 It is about absolutely everything that goes to make us human. It is part of the nature of humanity 279 0:20:32 --> 0:20:38 that we are in interacting constantly with each other. So if you do take that away, 280 0:20:38 --> 0:20:43 you break down humanity. And that is exactly what happened or what was attempted. 281 0:20:44 --> 0:20:51 Oh, thank you so much for that. I think maybe your... Sorry, go on, Charles. 282 0:20:51 --> 0:20:57 Steve, I'm thinking so people, you know, you can ask questions, but it might be rather go for 15 283 0:20:57 --> 0:21:03 minutes. People might put their hands up so that we have a flowing conversation, Steven. 284 0:21:03 --> 0:21:05 Jerry can do it, yeah, and take the pressure off me. 285 0:21:06 --> 0:21:11 Correct. Jerry. Let's go, Jerry. Jerry, Sebastian, I have some questions for Alexander as well. So 286 0:21:12 --> 0:21:19 let's do it that way. Hello, Alexander. Maybe I'll put on my camera so you've got some sort of 287 0:21:19 --> 0:21:24 idea who I am. Hey, everybody, I'm so excited. I'm going to be in Dublin with Jerry on the 26th and 288 0:21:24 --> 0:21:31 27th of February. And you're going to be one very, very intoxicated man, I can assure you. 289 0:21:33 --> 0:21:38 Honestly, you're going to have one hell of a hangover when I'm finished pouring Guinness into you. 290 0:21:40 --> 0:21:45 Alexander, I just want to say to you a number of things I want to say. Number one, I've watched you 291 0:21:45 --> 0:21:53 and Alex over the last three or four years. And you look so familiar to me. You're like my brother. 292 0:21:54 --> 0:21:59 You know, I'm looking at you and I think this guy is so familiar, his voice, every movement, 293 0:21:59 --> 0:22:05 every I know so much about you. And I remember when I used to see the pram there behind you. 294 0:22:07 --> 0:22:11 Yeah, well, I remember the use of a pram sat there behind you. What have you got? Twins? 295 0:22:12 --> 0:22:16 Do you have twins? I had twins and then I had a third child. So we've got three children. 296 0:22:17 --> 0:22:21 All girls. You really got the hang of it, haven't you? Absolutely. 297 0:22:24 --> 0:22:31 How old are they now? What age are they? Well, the twins are three. The third child is now 18 months. 298 0:22:32 --> 0:22:39 Is that right? Yeah. It really is fabulous. I tell you, Alexander, it's when you get to 299 0:22:39 --> 0:22:44 be a grandfather, you really appreciate your children. You know, no, I just want to say to you, 300 0:22:44 --> 0:22:55 first of all, your expertise in Ukraine is absolutely fabulous. I don't understand how 301 0:22:55 --> 0:23:03 you get so much work and you must have a lot of information coming into the background because 302 0:23:03 --> 0:23:09 you are without a doubt a world or the world expert on what's going on over there. Partly, 303 0:23:09 --> 0:23:13 you know, I can say that with a degree of certainty in that I've watched you 304 0:23:13 --> 0:23:16 since the beginning of the war. You've been right all along. 305 0:23:17 --> 0:23:24 Well, that's nice to be told. I have an awful lot of help from many, many people 306 0:23:24 --> 0:23:30 over the period of time that this conflict has worked out. All sorts of people and I can't 307 0:23:30 --> 0:23:37 unfortunately talk about all of them, who they are. But people from Britain, from Germany, 308 0:23:37 --> 0:23:41 from the United States have come, all kinds of people with all kinds of levels of expertise. 309 0:23:41 --> 0:23:46 And of course, I've had longstanding connections with Russia. I should say I'm not a Russianist 310 0:23:46 --> 0:23:55 myself. My wife is. She speaks Russian. She's not Russian. She speaks Russian, but she knows the 311 0:23:55 --> 0:24:02 universities in Russia. She knows the academic world. And through those contacts, I've had a 312 0:24:02 --> 0:24:09 sort of shape understanding of Russian opinion. And of course, I've learnt to understand the Russian 313 0:24:09 --> 0:24:16 political language, which is not the same as the political language in the West. So when you 314 0:24:16 --> 0:24:21 understand Russia, you understand Ukraine, because the two are still so connected to each other in so 315 0:24:21 --> 0:24:27 many ways that it does help you to, if you understand the one, you begin to understand the 316 0:24:27 --> 0:24:34 other. Yeah, that's I've been surprised at your pronunciation of the, like, how you get your tongue 317 0:24:34 --> 0:24:40 around the names of those towns that have been taken, week or day in, day out, truly remarkable. 318 0:24:40 --> 0:24:47 I often wondered, you know, we actually pronouncing them right, you know, I suppose your wife would 319 0:24:47 --> 0:24:53 obviously know that your pronunciation was right. And the other thing I've noticed over the years 320 0:24:53 --> 0:25:01 is that you very carefully skirted around COVID, which is probably wise for you in a sense. You 321 0:25:01 --> 0:25:08 stayed out of that area. So perhaps I'll introduce myself. I'm Dr. Gerry Waters from Ireland, 322 0:25:08 --> 0:25:14 a Selberge in Ireland. And five years ago, I recognised that there was no virus as such in 323 0:25:14 --> 0:25:19 my community, whatever about any other community, that was worthy of the lockdowns to facing, 324 0:25:19 --> 0:25:26 the masks, the social distancing. There was no virus there. There was nothing there. There was 325 0:25:26 --> 0:25:32 no need. There's no requirement for special drugs, no requirement for any of that. And I said so. 326 0:25:36 --> 0:25:43 In so doing, I incurred the wrath of the Irish Medical Council. And when they introduced the 327 0:25:43 --> 0:25:52 vaccine, I refused to administer the vaccine. I was suspended from the Irish Medical Register 328 0:25:52 --> 0:25:58 in March of 2021 and have been suspended since. I'm in the process of going through 329 0:25:58 --> 0:26:05 a legal proceedings with the Medical Council. And it kind of looks like they're going to just drop 330 0:26:05 --> 0:26:10 the case after four years of me being punished. So the reason I'm telling you this, Alexander, 331 0:26:10 --> 0:26:18 is that I'm as close an expert as you can get to actually what happened. Because the reality of 332 0:26:19 --> 0:26:30 epidemiologists and virologists and experts in anything, they all go on the GP's diagnosis. 333 0:26:30 --> 0:26:36 And the whole point, the whole crux of the COVID hoax was the deaths, the actual number of people 334 0:26:36 --> 0:26:45 dying. Nobody but nobody died from COVID per se. Take it from me for somebody who spent 40 years 335 0:26:45 --> 0:26:56 on the cold, at the cold face of general practice. Pretty much nobody died from COVID. And we were 336 0:26:56 --> 0:27:04 told to do as a three card trick of a certification. We were told to put down COVID as a cause of death 337 0:27:04 --> 0:27:10 based on the PCR test, which in effect was a con and a hoax. The inventor of the PCR test 338 0:27:10 --> 0:27:16 told us not to use it as a screening test. And we went on and not only did we use it as a screening 339 0:27:16 --> 0:27:26 test, I mean, we, I mean, the profession went on and used it, cycled 20 times more. And each time 340 0:27:26 --> 0:27:31 you cycle those things, you double the number of particles found. So what I'm saying to you is, 341 0:27:32 --> 0:27:38 you know, as I say, I'm about as close as an expert as you can get to the pathogenicity of the virus. 342 0:27:39 --> 0:27:47 And, you know, I say, I'm telling you this because I know over the last four years, you've been 343 0:27:47 --> 0:27:53 listening to you. And I think, I wonder what does Alexander really think about this? But in his 344 0:27:53 --> 0:27:57 wisdom, he decided to stay out of it. Well, can I just say straightforwardly, 345 0:27:57 --> 0:28:02 goes straight back to the issue of free speech, because there is no free speech on this issue. 346 0:28:02 --> 0:28:08 There is still no free speech on this issue. If you have listened to my programs as carefully 347 0:28:08 --> 0:28:14 as I'm sure you have, you will have noticed that there are many moments when I discuss 348 0:28:15 --> 0:28:22 political events completely unrelated to the COVID issue. And I say, I am now choosing my words 349 0:28:22 --> 0:28:30 carefully. And I have to do this all the time. One of the most exhausting and troubling things 350 0:28:30 --> 0:28:37 is that I'm constantly having to second guess what the sensors, because they do exist. They may be 351 0:28:38 --> 0:28:45 sensors in the form of a machine, the so-called algorithm, but behind the algorithm, there are 352 0:28:45 --> 0:28:53 people, what they will permit you and what they won't. Now, that puts you in a very, very difficult 353 0:28:53 --> 0:28:59 position. Do you discuss something? Do you go straight out and talk about it? I am not a doctor, 354 0:28:59 --> 0:29:06 remember, I have no medical background. Perhaps on the COVID issue, what I say does not carry much 355 0:29:06 --> 0:29:12 authority. But do I go about it? Do I discuss it? Do I discuss all those medical things, and then 356 0:29:12 --> 0:29:19 get deplatformed? Because that's definitely what would have happened. Or do I skirt the issue 357 0:29:20 --> 0:29:24 and avoid doing so and discuss other things, which I feel I need to discuss? 358 0:29:24 --> 0:29:31 Well, it is a terrible position to be in. It is a shameful decision to be in. You will always have 359 0:29:31 --> 0:29:38 doubts about the choices you make. You will ask yourself, have you been a coward? Or have you 360 0:29:38 --> 0:29:44 done the right thing? We took the decision on the Duran that we would 361 0:29:46 --> 0:29:53 avoid getting too deeply into the subject, precisely in order to be deplatformed. 362 0:29:53 --> 0:29:59 It is as simple as that. That is the reality. I've been completely honest about this with you. 363 0:29:59 --> 0:30:05 That was the decision we had to make. And can I just say the free speech issue has not changed? 364 0:30:05 --> 0:30:16 We still are unsure what exactly we can say about COVID on YouTube. We are still unsure 365 0:30:16 --> 0:30:25 what we can say in any public forum about COVID. It is the pressure which you have experienced, 366 0:30:25 --> 0:30:31 obviously, as a doctor, which is on a completely different scale. And by the way, can I just say, 367 0:30:31 --> 0:30:37 what a terrible thing that was? And what a terrible indictment of the entire legal 368 0:30:37 --> 0:30:44 and medical culture of Ireland. It is that that should have been done to you. And this is 369 0:30:44 --> 0:30:51 particularly shameful in a country like Ireland with its particular history, which we all know. 370 0:30:51 --> 0:30:57 Well, the fact remains, as I said, that those pressures are still there. I hope that they're 371 0:30:57 --> 0:31:04 abating. I hope that we will now have proper investigations. I hope that now that Robert 372 0:31:04 --> 0:31:10 Kennedy looks like he's going to be health secretary in the United States, it's likely that he will be 373 0:31:10 --> 0:31:16 confirmed. I hope the proper investigations will be launched. I hope that people will look into 374 0:31:16 --> 0:31:21 exactly what did happen. I hope that people look into the whole question of the vaccines, 375 0:31:21 --> 0:31:28 which was a particularly disastrous thing. The vaccines have been a catastrophe, in my opinion. 376 0:31:28 --> 0:31:34 And I think that the public is now ready for it. But that's what I can say. 377 0:31:35 --> 0:31:39 I got to admit, you're dead right. You're perfectly right to stay quiet on that. 378 0:31:40 --> 0:31:48 No, I'm not perfectly. I am not perfectly right. No, I'm not. I cannot use the word perfectly 379 0:31:48 --> 0:31:55 right. It is impossible. Perfect is impossible words to use in this. You had to make a decision. 380 0:31:55 --> 0:32:01 As I said, we were, we decided on the Duran that we were performing a useful service discussing, 381 0:32:01 --> 0:32:07 talking about politics, talking about the geopolitical realities of the world. And 382 0:32:07 --> 0:32:15 we decided that we weren't going to risk our voice, losing our voice on that, in order to discuss a 383 0:32:15 --> 0:32:22 topic which we were not expert on. But to say that it was a perfect decision, or even the right 384 0:32:22 --> 0:32:28 decision, I'm not sure that it was. Just to say. But you're there. You're still there. We're still 385 0:32:28 --> 0:32:34 there. You're still there. And you're still telling us. And you're channeling information to us. 386 0:32:34 --> 0:32:40 You know, those of us who hope you should get it. Jerry, you missed the point. So he hasn't defeated 387 0:32:40 --> 0:32:45 the tyranny though, the COVID tyranny. That's what he means. But the same token, there are some 388 0:32:45 --> 0:32:53 of us still out there fighting. And I do believe that Aleksandra and Alex have added so much to the 389 0:32:53 --> 0:32:59 overall knowledge of what's going on in the Ukraine that they were right. I'll stick to the idea. 390 0:32:59 --> 0:33:04 You're perfectly right to stick to your knowledge. Can I say something about the 391 0:33:04 --> 0:33:09 Ukraine conflict? Because of course, there is a connection with COVID again, which is lies. 392 0:33:10 --> 0:33:17 Lies told about COVID. Lies told about Ukraine. Lies told about the whole geopolitical issue. 393 0:33:18 --> 0:33:26 Now, we were able on the Duran to expose many of the lies that were told about Ukraine, 394 0:33:26 --> 0:33:33 about the conflict in Ukraine, about the entire way in which certain policies were being conducted. 395 0:33:33 --> 0:33:40 Now, the people who were telling those lies, the lies about the politics, about the policy, 396 0:33:40 --> 0:33:46 are the same people who were telling the lies about COVID. Not maybe exactly the same people, 397 0:33:47 --> 0:33:54 but they come from the same stable. Consider the fact that Dr. Fauci has now been pardoned 398 0:33:54 --> 0:34:00 by the very same president who was himself involved so deeply in the conflict in Ukraine. 399 0:34:00 --> 0:34:08 We can expose some lies on certain issues. We can't expose all lies on all issues. Everybody has a 400 0:34:08 --> 0:34:15 part to play. But of course, if you undermine lies in one area, then that perhaps, well, 401 0:34:15 --> 0:34:21 one wants to believe, I'm not sure how far I do believe, but it does make people more skeptical 402 0:34:21 --> 0:34:27 about some of the things that they're told, more questioning of the lies that they're told about 403 0:34:27 --> 0:34:34 other issues. It is a fact, and I can say this absolutely, that if you are looking at the people 404 0:34:34 --> 0:34:41 who were most skeptical about the narratives that were spun over the war in Ukraine, you will find 405 0:34:41 --> 0:34:47 that they are the same people who came to be most skeptical about the lies that were told about COVID. 406 0:34:48 --> 0:34:56 But we can't leave out global climate change. As I often say, I ran in two elections, 407 0:34:56 --> 0:35:02 a European election and a general election here in Ireland recently, and I tried to take on the greens. 408 0:35:04 --> 0:35:09 Any situation, I had no aspirations to be a politician. I wouldn't make a good politician 409 0:35:09 --> 0:35:18 because I'm just not a nice enough person. I attacked them every time on the anthropogenic 410 0:35:18 --> 0:35:26 global climate change, primarily because when I was in university in the 70s, when you were a child, 411 0:35:27 --> 0:35:37 they were telling us about global cooling, that we were expecting glaciers down to the 412 0:35:37 --> 0:35:45 Empire State Building and right down into New York and that. And then after seven or eight years of 413 0:35:45 --> 0:35:50 this, of my knowledge of it, they turned around and they told us, no, no, no, it wasn't going to be 414 0:35:50 --> 0:35:55 global cooling, it's going to be global warming. And Michael Mann came along with his hockey stick, 415 0:35:57 --> 0:36:03 which of course has now proven to be totally, absolutely, completely false on the basis of the 416 0:36:04 --> 0:36:12 tree rings that he used. So what I'm saying to you is these exact same people had in my lifetime, 417 0:36:13 --> 0:36:18 my scientific lifetime, the global cooling, global warming and then climate change. 418 0:36:18 --> 0:36:25 And again, as you say, it's all about the lies. And I will claim that each of us have to fight 419 0:36:25 --> 0:36:32 our area of expertise. And how can I say as a medical doctor that I can fight 420 0:36:34 --> 0:36:41 having expertise in climate change, primarily because I did chemistry in the early 70s 421 0:36:41 --> 0:36:44 and I followed through the chemistry of climate change since. 422 0:36:48 --> 0:36:53 I think you're dead right in avoiding those areas. 423 0:36:54 --> 0:37:01 Well, can I say on climate change, actually, I have personally spoken out against the issue 424 0:37:01 --> 0:37:08 of climate change in several formats and several values. Maybe not so much on the Durand because 425 0:37:08 --> 0:37:15 people don't look to it there. But I actually have some background in this. And I'll tell you what 426 0:37:15 --> 0:37:22 it is. It's just chance. But, you know, when I was a student in the 1970s, as one does, one 427 0:37:22 --> 0:37:28 goes and looks and reads some unusual literature. And there was a shop very near my university, 428 0:37:30 --> 0:37:35 a very good shop where they used to sell Soviet publications in English. And I bought one, 429 0:37:35 --> 0:37:40 which is a magazine called Sputnik, which the Soviets used to pump out all the time. 430 0:37:40 --> 0:37:45 And I found there and I still got that copy of that magazine somewhere. I found there an article 431 0:37:46 --> 0:37:54 by a Soviet scientist which discussed climate change. This was in 1978. And I could tell you 432 0:37:54 --> 0:37:58 for an absolute fact, I've still got that article somewhere and I've pointed it out and I've read 433 0:37:58 --> 0:38:08 it out in several places. Every single thing you hear about climate change, every point that's made 434 0:38:08 --> 0:38:15 about carbon, about whatever, it's there in that article. It's exactly there. And of course, 435 0:38:15 --> 0:38:22 it predicts it gives a timeline, which of course is completely wrong. Because remember, this was 436 0:38:22 --> 0:38:29 written in the late 1970s. But I think that scientist who wrote that article was writing 437 0:38:29 --> 0:38:36 in good faith. Climate science was very much in its infancy then. He didn't quite know. 438 0:38:37 --> 0:38:44 And I've read about him elsewhere. I think he was a genuine scientist. He got it wrong. 439 0:38:44 --> 0:38:52 But somewhere, somehow, somebody picked this all up. And you know, when I say this particular 440 0:38:52 --> 0:38:59 Russian scientist, there were others. Somebody picked it up and ran with the story. And a cult 441 0:38:59 --> 0:39:03 was developed out of it. Because that's what climate change is. It's a cult. 442 0:39:04 --> 0:39:09 Well, there's a lot of money behind it, remember. There's a huge amount of money. 443 0:39:09 --> 0:39:18 Net zero. There's billions depending on the net zero concept. So it is a cult, but it's a highly 444 0:39:18 --> 0:39:28 paying cult. But so was Covid. So was the vaccine. So is Ukraine. Always there is money behind 445 0:39:29 --> 0:39:36 anything. Covid was more than that. I do believe that there was a Malthusian element of Covid. 446 0:39:36 --> 0:39:44 You know, the Malthus idea of reducing populations and that. I'm firmly convinced with my medical 447 0:39:44 --> 0:39:50 background. Just to say, I think there is a deeply misanthropic aspect to the whole 448 0:39:51 --> 0:40:00 climate change thing. Human beings are wrecking the climate. We are destroying nature. We are 449 0:40:00 --> 0:40:07 seen as destroying nature. We must be combated and resisted. We can't use plastic straws or 450 0:40:07 --> 0:40:16 anything of that kind. I mean, there is a. It is very much there. So yes, I absolutely agree 451 0:40:16 --> 0:40:22 about Covid. There is a there was a Malthusian quality to it and very much a controlling 452 0:40:22 --> 0:40:26 quality. But there is a bit there is misanthropy about the whole environmental movement. 453 0:40:27 --> 0:40:36 Human beings are seen as a problem. Yes, they, you know, they create, they disrupt the climate. 454 0:40:36 --> 0:40:43 They litter the environment. They must be kept away from the open spaces. They can't be allowed 455 0:40:43 --> 0:40:50 to build houses or cut down trees or do any of those things. Unfortunately, there is an element 456 0:40:50 --> 0:40:56 of truth in it that we do. We do tend to be rather distrusting. Well, of course, I'm not saying and 457 0:40:56 --> 0:41:03 Charles, I was hearing was somebody who's run an organic farm and I'm not against these things. 458 0:41:03 --> 0:41:08 All I'm saying is that when it's taken to the level of fanaticism, which it is with some people, 459 0:41:09 --> 0:41:15 it has a particularly. We're not going to shame Charles. We're not going to manage to shame Charles. 460 0:41:15 --> 0:41:25 No, I'm all in favour of organic things. I go for bio organic lines, you know, the bio organic 461 0:41:25 --> 0:41:31 lines for example. I prefer organic. Anyway, I've rung as much as I can out of Alexander. 462 0:41:31 --> 0:41:36 I'm going to you're going to have to go if I left if I've left any information in his brain at all, 463 0:41:36 --> 0:41:42 somebody's going to have to ring it out of them. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. Well 464 0:41:42 --> 0:41:48 done. Well done, Jerry and well done on your on your fight. And I'm training to be able to drink 465 0:41:48 --> 0:41:55 more Guinness. So I mean, I'm in training, Stephen. Okay, thank you, Jerry. Good. Sebastian. 466 0:41:56 --> 0:42:00 Alexander, one of the things I've realised in the last five years, it took me a while to realise it. 467 0:42:01 --> 0:42:06 So it's interesting that we've never spoken, you and I, but you have and I haven't watched your 468 0:42:07 --> 0:42:13 videos either apart from the one I saw recently, which led to me asking whether we could have you 469 0:42:13 --> 0:42:21 as a guest. And but it seems to me that that you so you're talking about cults, and we have this 470 0:42:21 --> 0:42:25 platform here or whatever you want to call this group. And we've had twice weekly meetings for 471 0:42:25 --> 0:42:32 three and a half years or whatever, religiously almost. So you could argue we've got a cult too. 472 0:42:32 --> 0:42:40 But one of the things that I've come to realise is that human beings have been amazingly disappointing 473 0:42:40 --> 0:42:47 in my eyes since 2020. It took 2020 to make me realise it. But also they have a dangerous 474 0:42:47 --> 0:42:54 predilection for deadly cults. Oh, this is absolutely true. And it has always been true 475 0:42:54 --> 0:43:01 at all times throughout history. People have come together and believed in cults and other 476 0:43:01 --> 0:43:08 irrational things. I am not someone who despairs of humanity in general. I think that over time, 477 0:43:09 --> 0:43:16 you always see things like that starts to come up against objections and resistance 478 0:43:17 --> 0:43:25 and opposition. And eventually, the sort of contrary wave comes and people go back and they 479 0:43:25 --> 0:43:31 look back and they say, Is it really possible that we believed all those things? Is it really 480 0:43:31 --> 0:43:38 possible that we were fed all these stories that we accepted them? It's true. So, you know, I 481 0:43:38 --> 0:43:47 understand. I understand the point. Human beings are, well, we are what we are. We have a capacity 482 0:43:47 --> 0:43:57 to believe, to accept authority, to accept what we are told is learned authority. This is one of the 483 0:43:57 --> 0:44:02 great things about COVID and indeed about climate science, which we were talking about, is that, 484 0:44:02 --> 0:44:10 of course, the people who promote these things come with tremendous trappings of knowledge and 485 0:44:10 --> 0:44:17 scholarship and, you know, prestige because they have all kinds of important positions. 486 0:44:17 --> 0:44:22 And they tell us that they're experts about these things. And most of us, because we're not experts, 487 0:44:22 --> 0:44:29 and we are modest about our own knowledge, we are very inclined to believe that. But in time, 488 0:44:29 --> 0:44:36 as I said, humanity, I think, figures it out. That is my own view. And by the way, 489 0:44:36 --> 0:44:41 can I just quickly say, whatever you are, whatever this group is, it's absolutely not a cult. 490 0:44:41 --> 0:44:46 A cult, by definition, is not an organization. It's not a group of people who engage in dialogue 491 0:44:47 --> 0:44:53 discussion and criticism and who are prepared to say offensive things. 492 0:44:53 --> 0:44:56 Okay, Alexander, that is not what cults do. 493 0:44:56 --> 0:45:01 Here's the question for you. Have you looked up the etymology of the word cult? 494 0:45:01 --> 0:45:02 No, I have not. I'll be interested. 495 0:45:02 --> 0:45:11 It comes from the word to cultivate. Okay, so it's people who nurture, support, cultivate. So, 496 0:45:11 --> 0:45:15 you know, it's it's a, but then it's been hijacked, of course, the meaning of it. But that 497 0:45:15 --> 0:45:16 was his origins. 498 0:45:16 --> 0:45:17 Interesting. 499 0:45:17 --> 0:45:18 Yeah. 500 0:45:18 --> 0:45:18 Interesting. 501 0:45:18 --> 0:45:23 Okay, Sebastian, come on. Grill Alexander. I've got lots of questions for him as well, 502 0:45:23 --> 0:45:26 Stephen. So don't worry, I've got I've got sticks to make. 503 0:45:30 --> 0:45:37 We've got people who know about totalitarianism, not least Yevgeny Legedin, who's also an expert 504 0:45:37 --> 0:45:44 on the classics in world literature. He spoke for four hours on one of our meetings about books. 505 0:45:45 --> 0:45:51 And so I encourage all the people who are on now to ask questions. Sometimes they get a bit shy, 506 0:45:51 --> 0:45:54 Alexander. Maybe it's your British accent. 507 0:45:56 --> 0:45:58 They're not shy. Come on, Sebastian. 508 0:45:59 --> 0:46:02 Good evening, Alexander, and great to see you again. 509 0:46:02 --> 0:46:03 Great to see you. 510 0:46:03 --> 0:46:08 We actually just finished a two hour live stream with Aaron Matty, and here we are again. 511 0:46:10 --> 0:46:18 I just like to follow up on Jerry's on Jerry's comments a while ago, that, you know, Alexander 512 0:46:18 --> 0:46:25 and Alex did not follow up on COVID. We actually did, but we did not do it on YouTube because of 513 0:46:26 --> 0:46:33 reasons of the logarithms. But we did have Dr. Thomas Binger as well as Dr. Peter McCullar on 514 0:46:33 --> 0:46:42 Rumble, as well as on Locals.com, where we are primarily doing the work. And so they tried, 515 0:46:42 --> 0:46:49 we tried to circumvent YouTube. And when it comes to expertise, and the word has fallen quite a 516 0:46:49 --> 0:46:55 few times, Alexander always started off his, you know, when this Ukraine thing started, 517 0:46:55 --> 0:47:02 the SNO started. I'm not a military expert. I do remember that so very well. But he has actually, 518 0:47:03 --> 0:47:09 he was very, very interested in the whole topic of what was happening in Ukraine, what was happening 519 0:47:10 --> 0:47:15 all around the world, not only Ukraine, because there are multiple conflict zones in the world. 520 0:47:15 --> 0:47:22 And the knowledge that he has gained over the years, even because I was or am a military 521 0:47:22 --> 0:47:28 person, I had to tip my hat off to Alexander because he was a very, very, very, very, very 522 0:47:29 --> 0:47:34 I'm a military person. I had to tip my hat off to Alexander because he has seen things and 523 0:47:34 --> 0:47:39 predicted outcomes. And Alex as well, because both of them are the Durand, they work as a team. 524 0:47:40 --> 0:47:45 And these things have actually come through. And his knowledge towards the Russian diplomacy, 525 0:47:45 --> 0:47:53 the language, exceptional. And really, that is the coming back to the expertise, Jerry, 526 0:47:53 --> 0:48:01 it is a matter of fighting the war, but choosing your battles correctly and carefully. 527 0:48:01 --> 0:48:06 And that's what we're all doing. I mean, it's here, the international doctors, we call it ethics. 528 0:48:06 --> 0:48:13 It's the Durand for geopolitics. Everyone is fighting the battle that they can fight 529 0:48:13 --> 0:48:20 and trying to win it. But Alexander, I would like to ask you, don't you find it paradox, 530 0:48:20 --> 0:48:30 maybe even cynical that we in the free world, which we know as the West, that we live in, 531 0:48:30 --> 0:48:37 that we're slowly, this freedom is slowly dying out while simultaneously, we have the eastern world, 532 0:48:37 --> 0:48:43 which used to be dictated by communism. They were subjugated by the communists, that they are 533 0:48:43 --> 0:48:53 actually heroine, the old values of faith, freedom of speech, humanity, family, religion, 534 0:48:53 --> 0:48:59 everything that West had, we're losing while the communist, ex communist states are losing. 535 0:48:59 --> 0:49:06 Where do you think this is going to end? And do you see any hope for the rest of the Western 536 0:49:06 --> 0:49:11 world to regain these old values? These are enormous questions, if I could say. 537 0:49:12 --> 0:49:19 But why have the eastern states, why people have the people in the east held on to these things 538 0:49:19 --> 0:49:29 more? Because I think they have done, by the way, I mean, if you follow Russian debate, it is actually 539 0:49:29 --> 0:49:35 surprisingly open, much more so in some respects than it is in the West. Well, I'm going to suggest 540 0:49:35 --> 0:49:41 partly it is because they have experienced totalitarianism, and they're more sensitive 541 0:49:41 --> 0:49:52 to what it is than maybe we are. And they are perhaps more sensitive to the misuse of language 542 0:49:52 --> 0:50:00 than we are. There was, in Soviet times, there was this expression that you, that officials, that 543 0:50:01 --> 0:50:07 politicians use what was called is opium language from ESOP, by the way, in other words, 544 0:50:07 --> 0:50:18 languages is always elusive and elliptical. And this is something that the Russians have known 545 0:50:18 --> 0:50:25 about. And it makes them particularly not just sensitive to it, but on their guard against it, 546 0:50:26 --> 0:50:33 in a way that we are we perhaps are not. And of course, it also means, and this is an important 547 0:50:33 --> 0:50:40 difference in speech, particularly when people talk about politics, I don't just mean politicians, 548 0:50:40 --> 0:50:46 I mean, people at every level of society, is that when Russians talk about politics, they don't talk 549 0:50:46 --> 0:50:54 in cliches. Whereas in the West, to a great extent, now we do talk in cliches, when we talk about 550 0:50:54 --> 0:51:01 politics. And that is an important difference, because of course, cliches are stultifying. 551 0:51:02 --> 0:51:11 They are a shortcut to avoid thinking about things. And they mean that language is not 552 0:51:11 --> 0:51:16 straightforward. I'm going to say something further, that if you're talking about Russia, 553 0:51:17 --> 0:51:24 and you're familiar with Russian literature, there has always been a certain tendency in Russia 554 0:51:24 --> 0:51:31 towards being straightforward, towards straightforward speech. And with the end 555 0:51:32 --> 0:51:36 of the Soviet period, this is this appears to be coming back. 556 0:51:38 --> 0:51:45 And maybe maybe just another follow up on the science. You know, we were subjugated, 557 0:51:45 --> 0:51:52 it started with the COVID. And of course, it was follow the science and the hubris of one particular 558 0:51:52 --> 0:52:01 person, who we all know quite well, Anthony Fauci, you know, I am the science. I think that is one of 559 0:52:01 --> 0:52:10 the reasons why I actually joined this group also, because we have all the experts here. And you can 560 0:52:10 --> 0:52:17 connect, you can literally connect. We just recently had Richard Jeffs on here on this group. 561 0:52:17 --> 0:52:23 And he connected all of this pretty much, the different wars, Charles always says, he didn't 562 0:52:23 --> 0:52:28 say this evening, strangely enough, Charles, that we're fighting a war with seven different, 563 0:52:28 --> 0:52:34 I think it's seven different battlefields. Well, I did say it. Well, that was different. 564 0:52:34 --> 0:52:40 And one of those battlefields is geopolitics, or one of them is medicine. And the other one is 565 0:52:40 --> 0:52:47 fascism, of course. And Jeff, Richard, Richard Jeffs puts it very, very well, he connected it 566 0:52:47 --> 0:52:53 all to the secret societies. Now, with WEF is one of them, the World Economic Forum, we see the 567 0:52:53 --> 0:52:57 moving this, you know, this tentacle, this, this, I don't even want to call it an octopus, because 568 0:52:57 --> 0:53:05 octopus only has eight arms. This is much, much larger than that. But maybe Charles would like to 569 0:53:05 --> 0:53:11 even expound on that, you know, what these 12 different battlefields are. Well, I'd be very, 570 0:53:11 --> 0:53:16 very interested to hear. I'll get to quickly before Charles, if Charles does want to speak, 571 0:53:16 --> 0:53:22 I just get to say quickly, very, very quickly, that I absolutely do think there's been a change 572 0:53:22 --> 0:53:31 in the world in the West, since as I said, that I remember, which is that suddenly one does sense 573 0:53:31 --> 0:53:38 that an awful lot of things are going on, which one doesn't know about, that an awful lot of 574 0:53:38 --> 0:53:47 decisions are made that are not being discussed, that things happen, which don't just happen, 575 0:53:47 --> 0:53:52 somebody's obviously made the decisions about them. Now, that wasn't true. And I don't think 576 0:53:52 --> 0:54:00 I'm idealizing, but it wasn't true, you know, before. And it's, it's been developing and 577 0:54:00 --> 0:54:05 accelerating in ways that I'm not going to pretend I fully understand. But anyway, 578 0:54:06 --> 0:54:12 if you want to say something, Charles, if you want to, I do. So thank you. Thank you, Sebastian. Yes, 579 0:54:12 --> 0:54:19 I call this, you know, World War Three, what is this World War Three, or many people have come to 580 0:54:19 --> 0:54:23 this group out of Canada, that World War Two is ongoing, you know, the Nazis never surrendered. 581 0:54:23 --> 0:54:29 And that so this could be World War Three, or ongoing World War Two. And I call this the war 582 0:54:29 --> 0:54:35 against government overreach and one, and the one world government agenda. So that's the war. So 583 0:54:35 --> 0:54:42 what what have we identified as the war? And the 12 battlefronts, I have them in four groups of three 584 0:54:42 --> 0:54:49 in priority order. And as you listen to these just quickly, I'll just I'm not going to expand on I'll 585 0:54:49 --> 0:54:53 just run through them. But you said something, Alexander, Sebastian, you as well, Stephen, 586 0:54:53 --> 0:55:00 remember, we've talked about this, each one of us, when you go to a war, a real normal war, 587 0:55:00 --> 0:55:06 you can't fight every battlefront, you make a decision, you get posted somewhere, or you go, 588 0:55:06 --> 0:55:12 hey, I want to do this bit. In fact, I was watching a, I was watching a film, you know, 589 0:55:13 --> 0:55:18 like boxes become sergeants to become drill sergeants to train new recruits into a building 590 0:55:18 --> 0:55:24 army. So the question for each one of us is, what role are you going to play? Now, you can be on one 591 0:55:24 --> 0:55:32 of these battlefronts. But there are also people who need to be in the background doing fundraising, 592 0:55:32 --> 0:55:41 doing developing resources, it capabilities. And think about a war, there are people who are 593 0:55:41 --> 0:55:47 here handling the logistics of food, of feeding the troops. That's a crucial element in a war. So 594 0:55:47 --> 0:55:55 the 12 legal case, the top three legal cases, harnessing the power of the people to fight back 595 0:55:55 --> 0:55:59 against government, and then the information battle to get the truth to the people. They're 596 0:55:59 --> 0:56:05 the first three. The next three battlefronts are politically influencing existing parties, 597 0:56:05 --> 0:56:13 we're all part of that. Number five, creating new political parties. Number six, the spiritual 598 0:56:13 --> 0:56:17 battle that we're in, which is the battle of good and evil. Right? So that's, that's a big element 599 0:56:17 --> 0:56:24 of this. Number seven, scientific medical debates. This is, you know, that's such a distraction. I 600 0:56:24 --> 0:56:29 I give it as an example of having a debate on the quality of the deck chairs, sorry, 601 0:56:29 --> 0:56:34 the quality of the timber of the deck chairs on the Titanic. While the Titanic's going down, 602 0:56:34 --> 0:56:40 we're having a bullshit debate about a virus. So number seven is the scientific medical debate. 603 0:56:40 --> 0:56:46 Number eight is in business, Alexander, you and I as lawyers, restore the checks and balances in 604 0:56:46 --> 0:56:54 existing constitutional systems, we don't need to tear down all existing systems. From 1215, 605 0:56:54 --> 0:57:01 the Magna Carta came, you know, we've got buddy, 800 plus years of, of experience. Number nine, 606 0:57:01 --> 0:57:07 opposing the new world order agenda and the great reset. Number 10, proper, fair and lawful global 607 0:57:07 --> 0:57:14 financial system. Number 11, opposing any social credit system. And number 12, opposing the human 608 0:57:14 --> 0:57:22 augmentation agenda, particularly of Singularity University. So those 12. And then it helps me 609 0:57:22 --> 0:57:26 keep a framework. And so that people come sometimes come on this course and say, we're 610 0:57:26 --> 0:57:30 not doing anything. There's amazing work being at Dave Colum, who's going to ask a question in a 611 0:57:30 --> 0:57:36 moment. The work that he does is extraordinary and sharing a whole new way of looking at, 612 0:57:36 --> 0:57:41 at life. You know, that's what he's doing. And then Anders, he's going to talk about him and Mark 613 0:57:41 --> 0:57:48 Steele, they're talking about a deep understanding of 5g and electromagnetic frequencies. So the one 614 0:57:48 --> 0:57:53 question, so they're the 12 battlefronts, I'll happily send those, I'll post them here so that 615 0:57:53 --> 0:57:56 it helps us to understand. Now, the question I have for you before we go to Dave, 616 0:57:58 --> 0:58:03 my father was Hungarian, my parents were Hungarian. And, and I'm in organic farming, 617 0:58:03 --> 0:58:10 not because I need to save the planet, but because I need to save me. In other words, I knew from 618 0:58:10 --> 0:58:14 1965, when I went to my first naturopath, and there are naturopaths on this call, 619 0:58:15 --> 0:58:22 that, that the medical system is literally fucked. I knew that in 1965, I went to this naturopath, 620 0:58:22 --> 0:58:28 I don't have a doctor, I'm 72. I don't, I've never been to a hospital for ill health, because I knew 621 0:58:29 --> 0:58:36 what I ate created my body. There's another saying, I've said, it's said that you are what you eat. 622 0:58:36 --> 0:58:43 That's partly true. It's more accurate to say you are what you don't eliminate. And most people are 623 0:58:43 --> 0:58:50 literally full of shit. That's why they're unhealthy. Now, quality food is like, I can't 624 0:58:50 --> 0:58:56 stress enough, Stephen, you know, the community, we should be promoting every meeting here, get 625 0:58:56 --> 0:59:03 your food supplies in place. Jerry, get your Dublin flute, the Irish food supplies, have secret ways 626 0:59:03 --> 0:59:11 that you can survive for a year without the system. Now, one question, the Ukraine, my dad, 627 0:59:13 --> 0:59:18 always said to me that the Ukraine land is so fecund, one of my favorite words in the English 628 0:59:18 --> 0:59:28 language, that literally, the Ukraine could feed 8 billion people alone. What's your information on 629 0:59:28 --> 0:59:34 the quality of the soil of the Ukraine? I cannot, I cannot, I cannot give a number, but that it is 630 0:59:34 --> 0:59:42 extremely fertile, that it is extremely fecund is absolutely true. It was not particularly, 631 0:59:42 --> 0:59:49 well managed in the past, but potentially, if it was, and it could be, then it would be, 632 0:59:49 --> 0:59:58 it would be exactly as you said, it is, it's the so called Black Earth zones are enormously important 633 0:59:58 --> 1:00:06 in potential agricultural terms. And this is undoubtedly a major aspect of the conflict, 634 1:00:06 --> 1:00:14 because it's seen by some people, you know, the Black Earth zones have been seen by some people as 635 1:00:14 --> 1:00:21 an important asset, which people are fighting over. We've heard an awful lot about the mineral 636 1:00:21 --> 1:00:26 worth, wealth of Ukraine, which is probably overstated, by the way, the agricultural, 637 1:00:26 --> 1:00:33 potential agricultural wealth of Ukraine is not. By the way, this has a very, very long history. 638 1:00:33 --> 1:00:43 Again, I'm an Athenian, just to say in ancient Athens, Athens imported its food from what is 639 1:00:43 --> 1:00:51 now Ukraine. The grain ships came to Greece to Athens from Ukraine. And the way we in which 640 1:00:51 --> 1:00:56 Athens lost its war with Sparta was that the Spartans were able to blockade the ships and 641 1:00:56 --> 1:01:03 prevent the food from Ukraine, what is what we now call Ukraine reaching Athens. So this is a very, 642 1:01:03 --> 1:01:11 it's got a very, very long history. I should say that the Black Earth area is in the south of Ukraine. 643 1:01:13 --> 1:01:20 It's been the most bitterly fought over area. And more and more of it is passing under Russian control. 644 1:01:20 --> 1:01:28 Thank you. That's the most helpful and I will spend some, you know, being provoked to ask this 645 1:01:28 --> 1:01:31 question reminds me I'll spend some more time understanding that. But that's a beautiful example. 646 1:01:31 --> 1:01:36 Beware of the resources that God gives you because there'll be lots of fighting over it. Now talking 647 1:01:36 --> 1:01:43 about Sparta before we go to Dave Colum, Jerry, my favorite form of poetry is limericks. And I'm 648 1:01:44 --> 1:01:49 forced, Stephen, to burst into poetry. Since Alexander mentioned Spartan and it goes like this, 649 1:01:49 --> 1:01:56 there once was a fellow from Sparta who was a really magnificent fatter on the strength of 650 1:01:56 --> 1:02:04 one being he could fart God save the Queen and Beethoven's moonlight sonata. He could vary with 651 1:02:04 --> 1:02:10 proper persuasion his fart to suit any occasion. He could fart like a fluke, like fart like a flute, 652 1:02:10 --> 1:02:16 like a lark, like a lute, this highly far-tistic Caucasian. And it goes off another 13 verses that 653 1:02:16 --> 1:02:21 I could recite for you here by memory, but I won't. But anyway, thank you for the reference to 654 1:02:21 --> 1:02:27 Sparta. Thank you very much, Charles. And you won't recite them to us, Charles, because of your 655 1:02:27 --> 1:02:34 perceived respect for our sensibilities. That's right. I don't want to offend anybody. Respect 656 1:02:34 --> 1:02:40 for our perceived. Yes, no doubt we'll hear them all in Dublin in a couple of weeks. Wonderful. 657 1:02:40 --> 1:02:44 Yeah. All right. Dave Colum, what's what's what I asked you this question. What's the origin of 658 1:02:44 --> 1:02:54 Colum? Scottish, I think. I think it lost a mick. I think it lost the mick along the way. 659 1:02:54 --> 1:03:01 So I think we're probably from the Highlands somewhere. That's my guess. I actually trace 660 1:03:01 --> 1:03:06 my roots back through 23andMe to an inbred tribe in the Neander Valley. 661 1:03:09 --> 1:03:14 So Alexander, Dave is a professor of chemistry at the Library League University. So if you've got 662 1:03:14 --> 1:03:19 anything that's mystified you since you were at school about chemistry, you can ask him now. 663 1:03:19 --> 1:03:24 Well, I can. I mean, I should say that chemistry was appallingly badly taught at my school. 664 1:03:25 --> 1:03:30 We were given a lesson in the periodic table at about the age of 11, and then we were put 665 1:03:30 --> 1:03:34 in front of bunsen burners and we were doing all kinds of things, experiments, which were 666 1:03:34 --> 1:03:41 completely meaningless. So theoretical knowledge of chemistry was never provided. And that meant 667 1:03:41 --> 1:03:47 that the framework of how to understand chemistry was never there. By the way, I just wanted to say 668 1:03:47 --> 1:03:54 something about experts if people don't mind. I've come to have an opinion about experts, 669 1:03:55 --> 1:04:03 which is that experts, real experts, are not afraid of debate. It comes back to free speech issues. 670 1:04:04 --> 1:04:15 If somebody who calls him or herself an expert is trying to suppress views alternative to themselves, 671 1:04:15 --> 1:04:17 then they are not experts. 672 1:04:22 --> 1:04:24 So there weren't many experts in the Covid times then? 673 1:04:24 --> 1:04:32 No, there were not. And that is something that was exposed. And it is a very, very, 674 1:04:32 --> 1:04:39 very disturbing fact because clearly the people who were dictating the policy and who were telling 675 1:04:39 --> 1:04:44 us that they were the experts, firstly, they were not experts, but they were in positions of 676 1:04:44 --> 1:04:51 extraordinary power. It hasn't been officially exposed, Alexander, and that's the problem, 677 1:04:51 --> 1:04:57 because we need to hold these people to account. But I think people kind of knew that what they 678 1:04:57 --> 1:05:02 were experiencing was wrong, but they couldn't put a finger on it as to what was wrong. 679 1:05:02 --> 1:05:03 They weren't well. 680 1:05:05 --> 1:05:05 Yes, okay. 681 1:05:05 --> 1:05:11 I think this is going to be one of the great challenges of the Trump administration, if I 682 1:05:11 --> 1:05:18 can say. I mean, a point has been made that, you know, you mustn't expect perfection from what the 683 1:05:18 --> 1:05:23 new administration has done. I think it's done an awful lot, actually, in three weeks' time, far 684 1:05:23 --> 1:05:31 more than I would have expected. But this will be one of its great tests. I mean, it really needs to 685 1:05:31 --> 1:05:40 actually open the files, open the doors, get us to understand what really happened and to hold those 686 1:05:40 --> 1:05:43 who did do those things to account properly. 687 1:05:43 --> 1:05:48 Absolutely. There are very few who do understand what happened, though, I find, Alexander. But I 688 1:05:48 --> 1:05:53 think the people who are most likely to get there are people like you, who have their minds constantly 689 1:05:53 --> 1:05:59 open, are willing to hear other ideas and to test and to talk to people, essentially. And that's how 690 1:05:59 --> 1:06:06 human beings solve their problems. And I think that things have to get worse, arguably, before 691 1:06:06 --> 1:06:12 they get better. And it's not all to do with logic. You know, we think we have to be incredibly 692 1:06:12 --> 1:06:19 logical. You said yourself, you'd observe changes, but you couldn't actually work out what the changes 693 1:06:19 --> 1:06:26 were. You couldn't actually see the red line or whatever. And I agree. I think that human beings 694 1:06:26 --> 1:06:33 have this amazing capacity to get together, work out what happened, don't actually have to articulate 695 1:06:33 --> 1:06:39 it, but they kind of feel it. And then they move together to make things better when they had become 696 1:06:39 --> 1:06:45 terrible, such as, well, for example, in the United States. So people are saying, oh, you know, the UK 697 1:06:45 --> 1:06:51 is finished and Australia is finished and New Zealand's finished and USA is OK now. But three 698 1:06:51 --> 1:06:58 weeks ago, they weren't OK. You know, America was lost for four years. And that was a source of great 699 1:06:58 --> 1:07:05 discomfort to me. Absolutely. To me, to me also, by the way. OK, let's keep moving. 700 1:07:06 --> 1:07:14 Dave, so our favourite chemistry teacher here, Alexander. By the way, one of Dave's salutary 701 1:07:14 --> 1:07:22 comments that he makes in his annual review is that someone said of Dave Colin that he could 702 1:07:22 --> 1:07:29 make a proctology exam lecture interesting. So there you are. And then proceeded to describe 703 1:07:29 --> 1:07:37 getting my prostate taken out. A couple of things. One is your description of chemistry. It hasn't 704 1:07:37 --> 1:07:46 changed. You described it to a T. The Ukraine story that you have spelled a lot of ink over, 705 1:07:47 --> 1:07:54 what's so strange about it to me is that the truth seems to be in plain sight in the sense that 706 1:07:54 --> 1:08:01 the written records there, I'm ultimately a pro-Putin guy at this point saying, look, 707 1:08:02 --> 1:08:07 he played the best hand he had at that point. NATO was the problem. And it didn't take a huge 708 1:08:07 --> 1:08:15 amount of work to figure that out. What caught my eye actually was the mention of the screep 709 1:08:15 --> 1:08:24 holes poisoning in the bio. And years ago, when that happened, I dug into that. And the first thing 710 1:08:25 --> 1:08:30 that I noticed was that the claim that it was uniquely Russian technology was the most 711 1:08:30 --> 1:08:35 outlandish claim on the planet. And so I went out on Twitter and said, they're lying. 712 1:08:36 --> 1:08:43 And next thing I knew, I was doing weekly George Galloway interviews and Al Jazeera. 713 1:08:44 --> 1:08:48 I've done a ton of Russian Today interviews. So they could call me anytime they want to yank 714 1:08:48 --> 1:08:56 to say something bad about something. But it turned out that the organic chemistry behind the 715 1:08:56 --> 1:09:04 screep hole nerve gas was so simple that I actually put it on an exam in my course and said, 716 1:09:04 --> 1:09:11 design a synthesis. And they all got full credit. The question I have for you is what the hell was 717 1:09:11 --> 1:09:17 that all about? My conclusion is that it probably came from port and downs. And it did not look like 718 1:09:17 --> 1:09:22 it came from the Russians. And people would say, well, if not the Russians, then who? And the 719 1:09:22 --> 1:09:26 answer is anyone on the planet who wanted to make it look like it came from the Russians. 720 1:09:26 --> 1:09:30 So what's your take on that? Well, I think that's probably right. I mean, the difficulty with the 721 1:09:30 --> 1:09:37 script case is that that was a corrupted investigation from the very first moment. 722 1:09:37 --> 1:09:43 The then Prime Minister, Theresa May, got up in the House of Commons. This is almost as soon as 723 1:09:43 --> 1:09:51 the script was found unwell. This is before any proper investigation had been launched. 724 1:09:51 --> 1:09:57 And she said, it is highly likely, those are the famous words, that the Russian government, 725 1:09:57 --> 1:10:04 that the Russian authorities were involved. Now, I mean, when I worked in the Royal Courts of 726 1:10:04 --> 1:10:10 Justice, I've had dealings with the police. I know how the police work. I know how senior 727 1:10:10 --> 1:10:16 police officers work. The Prime Minister comes up and says that in the House of Commons on the basis 728 1:10:16 --> 1:10:21 of so-called intelligence information, which, of course, we've never seen. The police are going 729 1:10:21 --> 1:10:26 to take that as a steer, and that's going to shape their entire investigation from that moment 730 1:10:26 --> 1:10:35 going forward. And that was precisely what happened. Every part of the investigation was clearly 731 1:10:38 --> 1:10:46 took place with the objective of reaching what was already a pre-decided outcome. 732 1:10:46 --> 1:10:52 So in that kind of spirit, you can't assume that anything is true. And there hasn't been 733 1:10:53 --> 1:10:59 actual investigation of the Skripal case. It's not being conducted. I mean, I know about it. By the 734 1:10:59 --> 1:11:05 way, one thing I do know about is investigations. I used to have to review many, many investigations 735 1:11:05 --> 1:11:12 when I was at the High Court. You can't say that there's been an investigation. You can't say that 736 1:11:12 --> 1:11:23 the real leads that exist have been followed through. You don't know how this event came about. 737 1:11:23 --> 1:11:30 You don't even know exactly what did actually happen. What was the events that took place? 738 1:11:30 --> 1:11:34 And by the way, what you've said about the fact that, you know, was it Novichok, 739 1:11:35 --> 1:11:40 you know, that this is not a unique Russian technology. There was an earlier case, 740 1:11:40 --> 1:11:46 the Litvinenko case, which was a man who was poisoned with polonium. And again, it's not 741 1:11:46 --> 1:11:57 widely known, but during the public inquiry that was set up to the absolute dismay and astonishment 742 1:11:57 --> 1:12:07 of the judge who was chairing the inquiry, the government's expert witness came forward and said, 743 1:12:07 --> 1:12:14 no, it's not true that polonium, whatever it was, which is the chemical that was used against 744 1:12:14 --> 1:12:22 Litvinenko, that that only originates in Russia. Nor is it particularly difficult to find, nor is 745 1:12:22 --> 1:12:28 it particularly expensive. It could have been produced in Britain. That's what she said. 746 1:12:28 --> 1:12:36 And you could, if you read the inquiry reports, you could almost see, you know, the judges, 747 1:12:36 --> 1:12:41 because the judge again had a preconceived idea of where the investigation was going. 748 1:12:41 --> 1:12:49 You could almost see his jaw drop. And he mentioned it in his final findings, his final findings, 749 1:12:50 --> 1:12:54 what the experts said, that he just ignored it and just went back and said, you know, 750 1:12:54 --> 1:12:59 because it's polonium, that must mean it was the Russian authorities that were involved. 751 1:12:59 --> 1:13:06 Because polonium, the polonium was the only real evidence that it was the Russians. And it's the 752 1:13:06 --> 1:13:10 same with the Scripils. The only real evidence that it's the Russians is the fact that it was 753 1:13:10 --> 1:13:18 supposed to be Norbichok. If you take that away, then the whole case that's constructed starts to 754 1:13:18 --> 1:13:28 look threadbare. Well, even Porton Downe, guys at the end said, said, no, it's not necessarily 755 1:13:28 --> 1:13:35 the Russians. The polonium one told me that the only thing you know for sure is it was probably 756 1:13:35 --> 1:13:43 a state actor, right? It wasn't just wasn't food poisoning from eating shellfish. Yeah. And that 757 1:13:43 --> 1:13:48 was, was that 2017ish? Was it about then? It was a bit earlier than that. It was a bit, 758 1:13:48 --> 1:13:54 but I think the inquiry was about that time. So the other thing is there's actually photographic 759 1:13:54 --> 1:14:02 evidence that the two Ruskies who supposedly did it, that the photos were frauds. And so the whole 760 1:14:02 --> 1:14:08 case fell apart. We're not very good at that stuff anymore. As Peter Thiel once said, and then 761 1:14:09 --> 1:14:14 when they failed to shoot Trump, he says, it's really pathetic. We can't even whack anyone anymore. 762 1:14:15 --> 1:14:21 So Dave and Alexander, what was the point, you know, from Britain's point of view, was that to 763 1:14:21 --> 1:14:27 kind of prime the public to be anti-Russian so that when the time came, they could unleash the 764 1:14:27 --> 1:14:34 Ukraine war? Which, again, this is where one just doesn't have the whole motivations. I mean, already 765 1:14:35 --> 1:14:41 speaking from Britain, already you could see that relations between Britain and Russia were 766 1:14:41 --> 1:14:50 deteriorating rapidly. What exactly made the British authorities so antagonistic to the Russians at 767 1:14:50 --> 1:14:57 that particular time? As I said, it's still not clear to me. There's so much going on, but certainly 768 1:14:57 --> 1:15:05 the whole Skripal affair did play a very important role in poisoning attitudes 769 1:15:05 --> 1:15:09 in Britain against Russia. Just like the Russian case. 770 1:15:09 --> 1:15:19 Was the intent in America to influence the UK, one of its allies, you know, to prepare for, 771 1:15:20 --> 1:15:26 I don't know, so I'm thinking of the North Stream pipeline explosions. We've got someone in this 772 1:15:26 --> 1:15:33 group called Professor Hans Benjamin Braun. Braun. Braun. He's a professor of theoretical 773 1:15:33 --> 1:15:38 physics and he did an investigation of his own into the North Stream pipeline explosions and 774 1:15:38 --> 1:15:49 concluded by 11 different ways that it was a thermonuclear explosion in the centre of Europe. 775 1:15:49 --> 1:15:54 And guess what? Germany didn't notice and neither did Sweden. Sweden had detected, 776 1:15:55 --> 1:15:58 they were the first in the world to detect, well partly because of where they were, 777 1:15:58 --> 1:16:06 the Chernobyl explosion, but they didn't tell the world about the thermonuclear explosion in 778 1:16:06 --> 1:16:15 the centre of Europe. And I think Hans Benjamin Braun was correct because he distributed all 779 1:16:15 --> 1:16:20 his evidence to the United Nations and to nations around the world. Nobody came back to him. 780 1:16:21 --> 1:16:26 No, of course not. As they wouldn't. Which of course, I mean, not even to say presumably 781 1:16:26 --> 1:16:32 that he's wrong. But if that did happen and it's happened in Truss's time in those three weeks, 782 1:16:33 --> 1:16:36 so was that the reason she was brought in as Prime Minister for three weeks? 783 1:16:37 --> 1:16:41 Let's keep moving. Lots of contemplation but great questions. Dave, are you done? 784 1:16:44 --> 1:16:49 Oh, you're muted, David. Yeah, he's okay. Righto. Now, the 785 1:16:51 --> 1:16:56 question I have from Dagmar, who's not feeling well, and Dagmar Alexander is a lawyer in Germany 786 1:16:57 --> 1:17:02 closely involved in the Ryan and Fulmi case. Her question is, before we get to Anders, 787 1:17:03 --> 1:17:08 do you see the possibility of the monarchy disappearing in England and Europe? 788 1:17:09 --> 1:17:14 She says, I see the monarchy as an important element of the collective Stockholm syndrome 789 1:17:14 --> 1:17:20 in Europe. I hope that Diana's sons would set this process in motion when they 790 1:17:20 --> 1:17:23 realized that their mother had been liquidated by the firm. 791 1:17:26 --> 1:17:37 The monarchy in Britain as an institution is very, very bound up with the whole structure of the 792 1:17:37 --> 1:17:43 British state. Bear in mind that we don't have a written document which we can call a constitution. 793 1:17:43 --> 1:17:50 We have all kinds of legal theories in Britain and conventions and structures, all of which 794 1:17:50 --> 1:17:58 ultimately originate with the monarchy. So, simply as an administrative act, 795 1:18:00 --> 1:18:04 doing away with the monarchy would be a challenge. I mean, it has been done before. It was done in 796 1:18:04 --> 1:18:10 the 1640s, but it would be a difficult thing to do. And I think that the inclination of the British 797 1:18:10 --> 1:18:15 establishment will be to cling on to it as much as they possibly can and for as long as they 798 1:18:15 --> 1:18:24 possibly can. One of the great changes that has happened in Britain in my lifetime is you have 799 1:18:24 --> 1:18:34 seen support for the monarchy amongst the people drain away. In the 1960s, when I came to Britain, 800 1:18:34 --> 1:18:42 the monarchy was an act, the monarch, the monarchy was an actively popular institution. 801 1:18:42 --> 1:18:51 I mean, people supported it. It was very much part of their sense of British identity. The Queen was 802 1:18:52 --> 1:19:01 very highly respected when it was her silver jubilee in 1977. It was massively celebrated 803 1:19:01 --> 1:19:12 by the people. Today, the monarchy is treated with indifference by most people. And you saw the 804 1:19:12 --> 1:19:20 difference in the coronation. So, if you go back and look at the film of the coronation in 1953, 805 1:19:21 --> 1:19:27 when the former Queen was crowned, you see that this was a huge national event involving the 806 1:19:27 --> 1:19:32 people of Britain. When you look at the coronation of her son, King Charles III, 807 1:19:33 --> 1:19:40 it passed by almost unnoticed. Hardly anybody really particularly cared. I think it's going 808 1:19:40 --> 1:19:46 to be very difficult to sustain the monarchy for all the enormous institutional problems 809 1:19:47 --> 1:19:53 in the event that there is that kind of indifference to it. Eventually, people will say, 810 1:19:54 --> 1:20:03 why do we need it? What is it for? So, I think probably it is quietly slipping away. 811 1:20:04 --> 1:20:08 And then what about Europe? The stock exchange? Do you think that's a good thing? 812 1:20:09 --> 1:20:15 I am not sure, to be honest. I'm going to say this. I think that the monarchy, 813 1:20:15 --> 1:20:23 as it used to be, was a part of the constitutional legal and cultural landscape 814 1:20:24 --> 1:20:32 of a Britain that I remembered and which I loved. I should say that. I mean, the Britain I came to 815 1:20:32 --> 1:20:40 was a country that I loved and felt very connected to. So, though I am not particularly, you know, 816 1:20:40 --> 1:20:47 royalist or anything of that kind, seeing the whole structure gradually come apart, 817 1:20:49 --> 1:20:52 I find it very unsettling and I do wonder what will come. 818 1:20:53 --> 1:20:59 So, Alexander, is that the intention to actually create that unsettling feeling, 819 1:20:59 --> 1:21:04 unsettled feeling in British people? Was that the intention? And in particular, 820 1:21:04 --> 1:21:11 I was a bit disturbed about the way that, you know, when the Queen was alive, she was much 821 1:21:11 --> 1:21:19 admired, you know, even in the latter years of her reign, people had nice things to say about it, 822 1:21:19 --> 1:21:24 if only because she'd been there for so long. You know, most people, in fact, almost all people in 823 1:21:24 --> 1:21:31 the UK in the end, had never known anything else, you know, as far as the monarch was concerned. 824 1:21:32 --> 1:21:39 And so, it just so happened that her son, Prince Charles III, or King Charles III, as he's known 825 1:21:39 --> 1:21:46 now, he was a very, very poor substitute for the Queen. And the Queen is never mentioned now. 826 1:21:46 --> 1:21:52 I've never had a monarch die in my lifetime before, so I don't know what, there's nothing to compare 827 1:21:52 --> 1:21:58 with. But it just seems very odd that she was much revered when she was alive. But now, nobody ever 828 1:21:58 --> 1:22:03 talks about her. Well, this is absolutely true. I mean, when Victoria died, and when King George 829 1:22:03 --> 1:22:11 V died, monarchs who had been popular and very revered in the country, the fact that, you know, 830 1:22:11 --> 1:22:17 their shadow lingered for a very long time, people remembered them and took them very seriously. 831 1:22:18 --> 1:22:24 I guess it's good to make an observation about the Queen. I think one of the great qualities that the 832 1:22:24 --> 1:22:31 Queen had was that she never changed. Even as Britain changed around her, 833 1:22:34 --> 1:22:40 the Queen herself did not. Charles, can you mute this guy, Deli, or whatever his name is? 834 1:22:40 --> 1:22:51 Yeah, keep going, keep going. Yes. And that meant that she remained, she was some sort of connection 835 1:22:52 --> 1:23:01 to the Britain of the past. And I think people valued that. And that partly explained the enormous 836 1:23:01 --> 1:23:10 respect and affection that people felt for her. There is nothing like that that's just passed over 837 1:23:10 --> 1:23:16 to the present King. And the fact that we don't talk about her, and that the British establishment 838 1:23:16 --> 1:23:21 is no longer interested in talking about her is perhaps a sign that they don't want us to think 839 1:23:21 --> 1:23:27 much about our past. So is this about taking people's identity away from them? Yeah, I think 840 1:23:27 --> 1:23:31 it is probably. Come on, let's keep, we've got lots of questions. Stephen, save that question up. 841 1:23:31 --> 1:23:35 That's, but you know, you're in the midst of it, Stephen, so I don't know whether we, 842 1:23:36 --> 1:23:40 leave that, leave that to the end. But it's an important question as lawyers, the constitutional 843 1:23:40 --> 1:23:45 framework for the UK. Yeah. You know, in same Australia, we don't have a, we don't have a 844 1:23:45 --> 1:23:52 constitution. Sorry, Australia has a constitution, but no Bill of Rights as such. Now, Anders, 845 1:23:53 --> 1:23:57 I've said, Stephen, I've said to Anders, he's got some great information that he should do a 846 1:23:57 --> 1:24:03 presentation due for another update, but he's going to keep this one short. And Anders, please, 847 1:24:03 --> 1:24:08 what he's been doing his research on will be useful for us to see, Stephen. So he'll be able to. 848 1:24:09 --> 1:24:15 So I saw in the chat that Anders had written that Robert O. Young, who's been a guest for us, 849 1:24:16 --> 1:24:21 he's just been sentenced to prison, but you didn't say how many years, Anders, you said for years, 850 1:24:21 --> 1:24:34 but wasn't. Yeah, so the details are that he was, it was a jury of 12, and it was three accounts, 851 1:24:35 --> 1:24:45 and he got convicted for all three. And let's say by technicality, a felony is from one year 852 1:24:46 --> 1:24:48 and above, and this is three felonies. 853 1:24:51 --> 1:24:57 So yeah, well, why are you talking so cryptically? Just tell us how long was the sentence? 854 1:24:57 --> 1:25:03 Well, the sentencing of how long is not, it's not done. 855 1:25:05 --> 1:25:11 Yes, he's been convicted, Stephen, of three felonies. Sentencing is not done. 856 1:25:11 --> 1:25:13 No, I'd like to know what he was found guilty of. 857 1:25:15 --> 1:25:20 I don't want to go into it, but let's say it's in the chat, the details. 858 1:25:20 --> 1:25:22 In the chat, there's an article, Stephen, someone's posted. 859 1:25:22 --> 1:25:24 Is it about COVID? 860 1:25:26 --> 1:25:30 It is about him claiming he's a medical doctor and that he's treated patients, and 861 1:25:31 --> 1:25:35 this is, let's say, yeah, not legal. 862 1:25:37 --> 1:25:40 Yeah, but he was outspoken during COVID times. 863 1:25:41 --> 1:25:46 Technically, it's not about that, but you know, we don't really know. 864 1:25:46 --> 1:25:49 Well, yeah, okay. 865 1:25:49 --> 1:25:52 Okay, yeah. 866 1:25:52 --> 1:25:54 All right, Anders, your question. 867 1:25:55 --> 1:26:02 I have been working very closely with Robert, so just first of January this year, we finally 868 1:26:02 --> 1:26:09 published our, my research, which is written together with him, which is going into 869 1:26:10 --> 1:26:19 the combination of both the historic, let's say, EMR, electromagnetic radiation as a 870 1:26:19 --> 1:26:28 historical factor, as well as the historical vaccinations, about 130 years or so. 871 1:26:29 --> 1:26:35 So this was done, and I started a new study, which is into fertility, 872 1:26:36 --> 1:26:45 which I am now into, and I have done a lot of progress in that, and I've been really 873 1:26:46 --> 1:26:55 shocked to see that the fertility decrease is accelerating, becoming worse in 2024, 874 1:26:56 --> 1:26:59 while the excess mortality is slowing down. 875 1:26:59 --> 1:27:08 So, and I can see the trend line, let's say the excess mortality started in 2020 prior 876 1:27:08 --> 1:27:17 to the JABs, and it was not going up a lot in 2021, but let's say with the third shot in 22, 877 1:27:17 --> 1:27:25 it accelerated. So there are two strong correlations to the increased amount of 5G 878 1:27:25 --> 1:27:33 radiation, as well as, let's say, the third shot, and it is a huge variation in the cities 879 1:27:33 --> 1:27:35 where you have high 5G. 880 1:27:35 --> 1:27:37 Anders, I don't want you to do your presentation now. 881 1:27:38 --> 1:27:39 Okay, so. 882 1:27:39 --> 1:27:44 So this is my finding, so this is huge, so to me, I just want to say that it looks like 883 1:27:45 --> 1:27:50 it's a much worse situation with the reduction in fertility than those who have been killed by the 884 1:27:50 --> 1:27:52 JAB so far. 885 1:27:52 --> 1:28:03 Hmm. I hear about this, about the problems with fertility. It is a much under discussed subject, 886 1:28:03 --> 1:28:09 in my opinion. You just get the odd article appearing from time to time talking about this, 887 1:28:09 --> 1:28:14 but people are not really talking about this or addressing it or discussing why it's happening, 888 1:28:14 --> 1:28:20 and there doesn't seem to be any real explanation that I'm aware of as to why it is happening. 889 1:28:20 --> 1:28:21 I can't say more. 890 1:28:21 --> 1:28:26 No, the explanation, the explanation, I'm not a medical doctor, I'm a kind of expert in 891 1:28:26 --> 1:28:35 computer analysis, but let's say what appears to be strong theories is that we know that this 892 1:28:36 --> 1:28:43 lipid nanoparticle with all the nanotech was going into the test and ovaries, that's a fact, 893 1:28:43 --> 1:28:52 it's measured. Second, the radiation goes to the same places and you are radiated with, let's say, 894 1:28:52 --> 1:28:59 high frequencies with high energy, higher energy in the big cities, so you are likely to have 895 1:28:59 --> 1:29:06 big problems with, let's say, the creation of new life because there will be a lot of DNA 896 1:29:07 --> 1:29:10 problems because of the radiation, high radiation. 897 1:29:10 --> 1:29:18 Mm-hmm. Well, again, I'm not sure that I can add very much to this. All I will say is this, 898 1:29:18 --> 1:29:27 this is clearly a big major issue. It is very under-reported to the point that one wonders why 899 1:29:27 --> 1:29:34 it is as under-reported as it is. You would have thought that this would be something that people 900 1:29:34 --> 1:29:38 would, that, you know, that authorities would be concerned about. They seem to be completely 901 1:29:38 --> 1:29:46 unconcerned about it. And that, you know, that in itself begs many questions as to why. But that's 902 1:29:46 --> 1:29:54 really all I can say. I mean, it's not, it's something I've heard about. I don't think I'm 903 1:29:54 --> 1:30:02 able to comment more about it than that. Okay, thank you, Anders. So Anders is going to do a 904 1:30:02 --> 1:30:07 presentation, everybody, because his research is wonderful and gives us useful tools and will be 905 1:30:07 --> 1:30:15 useful for the lawyers in cases to come. I'll remind everybody of the film called Witness 906 1:30:15 --> 1:30:21 Statement. I'll put the link in again that Gerry Brady has been part of putting together, which is 907 1:30:21 --> 1:30:26 designed to be spread all around the world. Some of you have already done so. And it is a two and 908 1:30:26 --> 1:30:32 a half hour documentary on evidence for police and investigative authorities for the decades to come 909 1:30:32 --> 1:30:39 about the evidence of what happened during the COVID attacks. Now, I wanted to share something 910 1:30:39 --> 1:30:46 with you before we go to Sebastian again. And I'm going to share my screen. Some of you remember 911 1:30:46 --> 1:30:57 what life was like in January 2020. And I've been a fan for some 12 years of John Rappapour. 912 1:30:57 --> 1:31:05 And this is what he shared for those is a wonderful, his substack is fantastic. But 913 1:31:06 --> 1:31:16 this is on the 10th. So this is this email that I got was on the 22nd of January 2020, everybody, 914 1:31:17 --> 1:31:23 is the new deadly China virus, a covert operation, new virus in China, watch out, 915 1:31:24 --> 1:31:29 new virus in China, watch out, spreading animals to humans, pandemic coming up, obey medical 916 1:31:29 --> 1:31:34 authorities, all hands on deck, centered in Wuhan, the city of 11 million. Will they quarantine and 917 1:31:34 --> 1:31:39 shut down Hong Kong? Travellers with the virus getting through to Europe and America? What's the 918 1:31:39 --> 1:31:46 name of the virus? 2019 in COVID-2 or in COVID-2? What? Thank God the Chinese are under a tight 919 1:31:46 --> 1:31:51 dictatorship. They can crack down and quarantine anybody on a whim. If your body temperature is 920 1:31:51 --> 1:31:57 elevated on the chest, they stop you? Wow, we may need that in the USA as long as they don't stop me. 921 1:31:57 --> 1:32:03 Impeachment? Forget that. It's the virus. There you are. In the 19 years of this website, the one 922 1:32:03 --> 1:32:08 story I've researched and covered more than any other is the deadly virus hustle, SARS, 923 1:32:08 --> 1:32:15 swine flu, Ebola. Now we have a new one. And on it goes. So it was interesting. I've collected all 924 1:32:15 --> 1:32:20 my emails from Rappapour. He's a wonderful investigative journalist. I recommend him 925 1:32:20 --> 1:32:24 for all of you to get his sub stack. But I'll just bring into your attention what was happening 926 1:32:25 --> 1:32:30 then. Do we know which state Robert O. Young was convicted in? 927 1:32:34 --> 1:32:42 No. Someone will put it in the chat. Stephen, the full article is in the chat somewhere. San Diego. 928 1:32:42 --> 1:32:51 San Diego. California. No, it's California. Yeah, that's California state. That is California. 929 1:32:53 --> 1:33:05 Yep. Jesus. No. Yeah, OK. Sebastian, the question was asked a while ago about the black earth or 930 1:33:05 --> 1:33:10 topsoil, which is in Ukraine. Why this is so important? I think Alexander can also 931 1:33:10 --> 1:33:15 expound on this topic from a historic point of view. But I'd like to mention that there were 932 1:33:15 --> 1:33:23 rumors that in 2014, 2015, Bill Gates was buying up a tremendous amount of farmland globally, 933 1:33:24 --> 1:33:33 even in Russia. And he tried to get farmland in Ukraine. I think it was after the arms revolution. 934 1:33:34 --> 1:33:39 And it is because the topsoil is the most fertile soil. It is one of the most fertile soils 935 1:33:39 --> 1:33:47 in the world. And this happens to be, as Alexander said, it is in the south of Ukraine, 936 1:33:47 --> 1:33:55 where the four states have been incorporated into Russia, as well as Crimea. And on that point, 937 1:33:55 --> 1:34:02 Crimea is an extremely important geopolitical and strategic point of the world, which has been 938 1:34:02 --> 1:34:09 fought by the British since 1854, the Battle of Crimea, of which a movie was made, 939 1:34:10 --> 1:34:15 The Charge of the Light Brigade. And I pass on to Alexander here because this is of significant 940 1:34:15 --> 1:34:21 importance that he might like to speak about. What about Crimea, about the Crimean issue? I mean, 941 1:34:21 --> 1:34:30 the British, one has to say this clearly. I mean, most British people have only folk memories of the 942 1:34:30 --> 1:34:36 Crimean War. And of course, there's a famous poem by Tennyson about the Charge of the Light Brigade. 943 1:34:36 --> 1:34:42 And there's been films about this and that kind of thing. But the British establishment, parts of it, 944 1:34:42 --> 1:34:49 at least, seem to have never given up on this issue. And the idea about Crimea, if you look at 945 1:34:49 --> 1:34:59 Crimea in terms of the Black Sea, it sort of dominates naval movements on the Black Sea. And 946 1:34:59 --> 1:35:07 it also means that because of the Black Sea, because of the various big rivers open in the 947 1:35:07 --> 1:35:16 Black Sea, the Dnieper, the Dniester, the Danube, this is all part of some great geopolitical play. 948 1:35:16 --> 1:35:22 And there's been talk that the British want bases of the Black Sea and specifically in Crimea. 949 1:35:23 --> 1:35:30 And it's a fact that in 2014, the Americans, after the change of power in Kiev, after the Maidan coup, 950 1:35:30 --> 1:35:36 actually did send people to Crimea to sort of think about opening a base there. Of course, 951 1:35:36 --> 1:35:45 the Russians, Crimea is not just a naval base and a place that's important in those respects. 952 1:35:45 --> 1:35:50 But of course, it's very much a part of their history as well. So it's understandable perhaps 953 1:35:50 --> 1:35:58 that they would resist this. I have to say, I still find this fixation that some people in London 954 1:35:58 --> 1:36:08 have with Crimea very, very strange that people should cling on to ideas and geopolitical ideas 955 1:36:08 --> 1:36:19 of the 1850s in the modern world. It is part, in my opinion, of the unhealthy obsession that we have 956 1:36:19 --> 1:36:26 in Britain about Russia, which has never fully gone away and reasserts itself every so often, 957 1:36:26 --> 1:36:38 and which we now have in acute form. Quickly, on the subject of Crimea, just to also add, 958 1:36:38 --> 1:36:43 by the way, that all these names, these Greek names that you see, Sevastopol, Simferopol, 959 1:36:44 --> 1:36:54 Odessa, all of that, they have no actual Greek origin. They were chosen by Catherine the Great 960 1:36:54 --> 1:37:02 and Potemkin, her chief minister. So Sevastopol means the city of the empress, 961 1:37:02 --> 1:37:07 and the empress in question is, of course, Catherine the Great. And there was never any 962 1:37:07 --> 1:37:13 ancient Greek city by that name, and there was never any ancient Greek city by the name of Odessa 963 1:37:13 --> 1:37:20 either. That is a name that was also picked by them, and it clearly refers to Odysseus, the 964 1:37:20 --> 1:37:28 Greek hero, the ancient Greek hero. Brilliant. Thank you, Alexander. And Sebastian, Tom the Rodman man. 965 1:37:28 --> 1:37:38 Hi there. So I listen to both Alex's a couple times a week usually, and really appreciate it, 966 1:37:38 --> 1:37:47 and I appreciate Alex from CRETE. He apparently has a lot of IT ability, and he does a lot of work 967 1:37:48 --> 1:37:54 with all the channels and so forth. But I was talking to a friend last night who's actually 968 1:37:54 --> 1:38:02 on this call who's very good on history, and he went over the vilification of Putin starting in the 969 1:38:03 --> 1:38:12 right after he got installed. I guess initially he was greeted by Bush, and it was a positive thing. 970 1:38:12 --> 1:38:23 It was a positive thing. But I think what I'm concerned about is, or what I wanted to get across 971 1:38:23 --> 1:38:31 is that I first sort of became aware of, I certainly was impacted by Vietnam, but in the 90s I was not 972 1:38:31 --> 1:38:39 awake. And then over the 90s I think I woke up, and I think TWA flight 800 was something that 973 1:38:39 --> 1:38:47 woke me up, and then certainly 9-11 and so forth. But I wanted to just mention a few points. One 974 1:38:47 --> 1:38:57 thing Eric sees in Russia, he's brought up that there are drones going upwards of 1200 miles into 975 1:38:57 --> 1:39:05 Russia, and that somewhere between 8 and 10 percent of the oil refineries have been disabled 976 1:39:05 --> 1:39:11 periodically, and then they get rebuilt. And that this story is just not, this is another theme I 977 1:39:11 --> 1:39:20 have, what do we, what are we to focus on? We're focusing on Gaza. I was at a demonstration last 978 1:39:20 --> 1:39:28 night out in the cold about that issue. It's very important to me. But the number of dead per day 979 1:39:28 --> 1:39:37 in the Ukraine far exceeds the deaths in Gaza. So the American people have been just as duped as, 980 1:39:39 --> 1:39:45 well, I know this is a contentious issue, but there's a vilification of the Palestinians, 981 1:39:46 --> 1:39:52 and I contend that, you know, the Israelis have been fooled. There's some people, 982 1:39:53 --> 1:39:58 another comment you might address is the stratification of wealth within Israel. 983 1:39:59 --> 1:40:07 Is it true that there's a class struggle there, and that, you know, so I'm hitting all these points. 984 1:40:09 --> 1:40:18 Yeah, if you could, I'll try to wrap it up here. What do you think, is Trump going to, is the body 985 1:40:18 --> 1:40:28 count under Trump going to be less than Biden in the long run? And then your comments on the political 986 1:40:28 --> 1:40:35 capital that was spent by Trump in this press conference with Netanyahu, and do you have any 987 1:40:35 --> 1:40:41 additional analysis on that? Well, I've discussed all of these things. Can I simply say, first of 988 1:40:41 --> 1:40:46 all, that you're absolutely correct about one thing. There is a huge amount of vilification and 989 1:40:47 --> 1:40:53 media manipulation and distortion and propaganda. That is true of all wars, but the extent to which 990 1:40:53 --> 1:41:02 it has been happening in recent years has been astonishing. And it often is directed in conditions 991 1:41:02 --> 1:41:08 where there hasn't been a war. I mean, in theory, at least, I mean, we are not at war with Russia, 992 1:41:08 --> 1:41:15 and yet we behave all the time as if we are. We talk about Russian leaders and Russian political 993 1:41:15 --> 1:41:22 objectives as if we were actually at war with them. Now, I think people are starting to rebel 994 1:41:22 --> 1:41:30 against this in the United States, definitely, in Germany, to some extent, less so in Britain. 995 1:41:31 --> 1:41:38 I think if we're talking about the Middle East, about the conflict in Gaza, about the situation on 996 1:41:38 --> 1:41:47 the Palestinian territories, then I think here, the degree of pushback that there is from people 997 1:41:47 --> 1:41:58 about what is going on is much greater. People have learnt to be critical about the official 998 1:41:58 --> 1:42:04 views from a very, very much earlier point than they have been about Ukraine. Ukraine is still 999 1:42:04 --> 1:42:10 an early story. It's only been something that people have been watching and listening and 1000 1:42:10 --> 1:42:19 following about for about 10 years. Russia, it's perhaps longer, it goes back further. But 1001 1:42:20 --> 1:42:25 the issue of the war in Ukraine, as I said, people are only just now beginning to learn about it. 1002 1:42:26 --> 1:42:35 The war in Gaza, because it's been ongoing for, what, 80 years now, 70 years now, 1003 1:42:36 --> 1:42:40 a lot more people have become critical and an awful lot more people have become 1004 1:42:42 --> 1:42:48 much better informed about what is going on. Now, very quickly, just to touch on a few quick points, 1005 1:42:48 --> 1:42:54 the drone strikes that the Ukrainians do, I myself think that they are mostly performative. Yes, 1006 1:42:54 --> 1:43:00 they do do some damage. I think that they don't do any significant damage. If you look at the 1007 1:43:00 --> 1:43:06 overall economic numbers that are coming out of Russia, they are not affected by these drone 1008 1:43:06 --> 1:43:12 strikes. I think these are little pinprick things that Mr. Zelensky and his people do, 1009 1:43:12 --> 1:43:17 because they want to show that Ukraine is hitting back Russia in some way. So that's what I wanted 1010 1:43:17 --> 1:43:26 to say about those. Now, about the issue of these comments of Trump, there are two views here. 1011 1:43:26 --> 1:43:33 My own view is that Trump has no intention of deporting millions of people from Gaza. I think 1012 1:43:33 --> 1:43:41 he did understand that there is a potential political crisis in Israel, because this ceasefire 1013 1:43:41 --> 1:43:48 had been established in Gaza and that the Israeli government and Netanyahu himself 1014 1:43:48 --> 1:43:54 had not achieved the objective of destroying Hamas, which they told the Israeli people that 1015 1:43:54 --> 1:44:03 they would. I think Trump does not want to see Netanyahu go for all sorts of reasons. He prefers 1016 1:44:03 --> 1:44:11 the devil. He knows who is Netanyahu. So I think very unwisely and very foolishly he made these 1017 1:44:11 --> 1:44:19 extraordinary comments about Gaza, which he's now doubled down on, as he tends to do, in order 1018 1:44:20 --> 1:44:28 mostly to help Netanyahu. And I think that is probably all there was to it from Trump's 1019 1:44:28 --> 1:44:38 perspective. I think that in terms of the effect in Israel, in Gaza, in the wider Middle East, 1020 1:44:38 --> 1:44:45 and across the world, I think they were very, very bad comments. I think that they've been very badly 1021 1:44:45 --> 1:44:56 received. I think many people, myself being one of them, feel that they normalize deportations, 1022 1:44:56 --> 1:45:02 mass deportations of people, and appear to legitimize them. And I think Trump should not 1023 1:45:02 --> 1:45:12 have said what he did. Those are my views. Okay, one follow-up. Thank you. There's one 1024 1:45:12 --> 1:45:19 demonstration in the U.S. that I'm aware of against the Ukraine war, and Jill Stein was there. There was 1025 1:45:21 --> 1:45:28 the woman from Code Pink, Medea, was there, but they were not allowed to come to the front stage 1026 1:45:28 --> 1:45:36 because their respective organizations would not allow them to endorse that event. And it was the 1027 1:45:36 --> 1:45:41 People's Party. We also have somebody on this call who knows about the People's Party and the 1028 1:45:41 --> 1:45:50 corruption, how it's a paper party here. But I attended a local rally on that, and I was punished 1029 1:45:50 --> 1:45:54 by the party that I was in. I was expelled from that party. 1030 1:45:56 --> 1:46:03 Again, the body count in that is higher than Gaza, but there's no activity. Is there any 1031 1:46:03 --> 1:46:07 activity that you know of on the street against that war in Europe? 1032 1:46:07 --> 1:46:10 Because we're not seeing much here in the United States. It's just... 1033 1:46:10 --> 1:46:19 Well, there is very little, and in Britain there is none. I mean, there's been no anti-Ukraine war 1034 1:46:19 --> 1:46:24 protests in London, for example, that I'm aware of. I mean, just to say, there were a few at the 1035 1:46:24 --> 1:46:30 beginning, but of course they weren't anti-war protests. They were pro-Ukraine protests, which 1036 1:46:30 --> 1:46:35 ultimately meant pro-war protests. But those were right at the beginning. All that's melted away, 1037 1:46:36 --> 1:46:42 but it has not become a topic that people are mobilized around. And partly it is because 1038 1:46:42 --> 1:46:47 people are very, very intimidated. People are still very frightened. If you come out and talk 1039 1:46:48 --> 1:46:55 and speak out against the war, you're immediately classified as a Putin enabler or a Putin spokesman 1040 1:46:55 --> 1:47:03 or a Putin propagandist, and people are frightened of that. So we haven't yet reached that point 1041 1:47:04 --> 1:47:11 where protests have become possible. And can I just say the fact that you were expelled from your 1042 1:47:11 --> 1:47:19 party, the fact that Jill Stein was unable to speak, all of this is terrible. One should not 1043 1:47:20 --> 1:47:30 overlook how shocking it is that people are being prevented, in effect, from speaking out at public 1044 1:47:30 --> 1:47:39 meetings or attending public meetings. Again, once upon a time in Britain and the United States 1045 1:47:39 --> 1:47:46 and Canada and Australia and all sorts of places, it was absolutely possible to do this. We had a 1046 1:47:46 --> 1:47:51 place in London called Speaker's Corner in Hyde Park where people used to come and they used to 1047 1:47:51 --> 1:47:57 tip speaker. If you go to Speaker's Corner today, by the way, you will find it empty. 1048 1:47:57 --> 1:48:02 There is no one there anymore. I've been there many times. It's not far from where I live, 1049 1:48:02 --> 1:48:10 but it is now deserted. That whole free speech thing has died and it is terrible. 1050 1:48:10 --> 1:48:19 Now, there is not, however, the active persecution yet of people who speak out 1051 1:48:19 --> 1:48:24 against the war in Ukraine, as I do, that there is a people who speak out against what's been 1052 1:48:24 --> 1:48:34 going on in Gaza. Here there has been. I'm in touch with some people in Britain who have been 1053 1:48:34 --> 1:48:41 called in by the police, who have been detained for many hours, who have been questioned under 1054 1:48:41 --> 1:48:49 the Terrorism Act, which is an appalling act, by the way, absolutely awful act, the Terrorism Act, 1055 1:48:49 --> 1:48:54 you know, on the basis that they're giving support to a terrorist organization, in other words, 1056 1:48:54 --> 1:49:00 to Hamas, which I can say definitely that they are not. And they've been kept in custody for 1057 1:49:00 --> 1:49:07 periods of up to 96 hours without access to their lawyers and without ability to contact their 1058 1:49:07 --> 1:49:13 families. Now, I should say that I have been giving advice to one or two of these people, 1059 1:49:13 --> 1:49:19 not legal advice, but I've been arranging for lawyers to see them. One of them is a man called 1060 1:49:19 --> 1:49:25 Richard Medhurst. There have been others. I don't want to name who they are because obviously there 1061 1:49:25 --> 1:49:31 are confidentiality issues, but nothing like that yet about the conflict in Ukraine. And hopefully 1062 1:49:31 --> 1:49:39 there never will be. Thank you, Tom. Thank you, Alexander. Excellent. Alexander, 96 hours detention 1063 1:49:39 --> 1:49:44 in the UK without charges is illegal, isn't it? Absolutely. Absolutely. And I know that it's 1064 1:49:44 --> 1:49:52 happened. Denying a person access to a lawyer in that time is illegal. Preventing them from 1065 1:49:52 --> 1:50:01 talking to their families is illegal. Isolating them. And yet it is being done. I know that for 1066 1:50:01 --> 1:50:08 a fact. When did things change? When did Speaker's Corner die? I don't know. It's one of those 1067 1:50:09 --> 1:50:19 unnerving things that you go there and you suddenly notice that there isn't anyone there. 1068 1:50:19 --> 1:50:27 And then you go there again and again. And you realize that at some points recently, 1069 1:50:27 --> 1:50:33 but you can't exactly put your finger as to when it happened. This place, which used to be so 1070 1:50:33 --> 1:50:40 important, has ceased to function as it once did. I don't know. You won't find anybody to talk about 1071 1:50:40 --> 1:50:48 it. Nobody will discuss it. None of those things. So many things like that have disappeared from the 1072 1:50:48 --> 1:50:55 UK. Come on. Come on. We've got hands up, Stephen. Come on. We're running. We're going to run. You're 1073 1:50:55 --> 1:50:59 going to last. Stephen is the last. Every time I try to speak, Charles, I didn't get my 15 minutes. 1074 1:51:00 --> 1:51:05 And you close down every time. I'm trying to save you the last 15 minutes, Stephen. 1075 1:51:06 --> 1:51:14 Right. Well, that doesn't happen. With lovingly. At quarter past 10, your time, Stephen, it's all 1076 1:51:14 --> 1:51:21 yours for 15 minutes to grill Alexander. Well, we'll see. Yeah. Yeah. You'll have no problem. 1077 1:51:21 --> 1:51:23 Yeah, but then I can't think of the question. So I'm just. 1078 1:51:23 --> 1:51:32 Yeah, that's fair. Yevgeny, here we go. Yeah, thank you very much. First of all, I want to say 1079 1:51:32 --> 1:51:40 that as a psychiatrist from time to time, I attend Alexander's blog on YouTube as a psychotherapeutic, 1080 1:51:40 --> 1:51:48 you know, room. Thank you. So, um, Yevgeny, can I just explain who you are? So, uh, Yevgeny is a British, 1081 1:51:49 --> 1:51:57 uh, trained, trained in the UK as a doctor. So he's a British trained doctor and psychiatrist. 1082 1:51:57 --> 1:52:04 He was born in the Soviet Union. He knows the classics. He can talk about books forever. 1083 1:52:04 --> 1:52:10 And he was so he knows about totalitarianism as well because of where he was born. And, um, 1084 1:52:11 --> 1:52:19 and also very bravely and courageously, he's kind of accepted that he had to give up his 1085 1:52:20 --> 1:52:27 career in medicine, as did I, because of what was happening in 2020 and just said what he needed to 1086 1:52:27 --> 1:52:35 say and took the consequences. I actually deregistered myself and the license myself 1087 1:52:36 --> 1:52:42 in 2021 because I needed to speak out. Um, but Yevgeny didn't do that. He didn't play ball with 1088 1:52:42 --> 1:52:48 them. He paid the price and they recently took him out. Is that right? No, no, no, 1089 1:52:48 --> 1:52:59 it's completely wrong. I am winning. The thing is that it's a long, it's a long story. Just in one 1090 1:52:59 --> 1:53:05 sentence in 2019, I whistle-blowed about mistreatment of the patients in psychiatric 1091 1:53:05 --> 1:53:11 hospital in Scotland. So I was dismissed. Uh, there was fabricated case against me against 1092 1:53:11 --> 1:53:18 GMC, which was ongoing like for three years. So the results of these things, so I won employment 1093 1:53:18 --> 1:53:24 with, you know, I won the case in the GMC, in the GMC without lawyer, by the way. So, and, uh, several 1094 1:53:24 --> 1:53:31 times the Scottish DNA tries to like, to destroy my further advancement in the program. So eventually 1095 1:53:31 --> 1:53:38 I won, uh, the, in the dinner that I continue my training. So the, the stuff is going on, by the way, 1096 1:53:38 --> 1:53:43 I'm working in the hospital just beside the children's hospitals called Sky House, 1097 1:53:43 --> 1:53:51 which yesterday was in the BBC investigation about abuse of the young patients in the, in the ward 1098 1:53:51 --> 1:53:58 by the nursing staff. Okay. So just, I want to say that I'm attending your YouTube as a sort of 1099 1:53:58 --> 1:54:07 psychotherapeutic couch to relax toxic, you know, lying propaganda, which just goes from every corner. 1100 1:54:09 --> 1:54:14 You see how the propaganda is working. Somebody mentioned Skripals today. So they were poisoned, 1101 1:54:14 --> 1:54:22 I think, uh, was it like 2018, fourth of March on Sunday. On this day, I arrived in the, at the 1102 1:54:22 --> 1:54:27 ski resort in Highlands, like for skiing from mountains. So the next day, somebody is asking 1103 1:54:27 --> 1:54:35 me in the lounge area, Yevgeny, why did you poison Skripals? Do you know? It's crazy. Then another 1104 1:54:35 --> 1:54:40 thing about, I previously mentioned about the totalitarian thing. We should be very careful with 1105 1:54:40 --> 1:54:48 adjectives and looks look into the essence of the things. And they say every state is totalitarian. 1106 1:54:48 --> 1:54:55 It's just the, um, the, the sometimes the totalitarian regime, which controls actually 1107 1:54:55 --> 1:55:01 every citizen by laws, educations, their culture, and allows them some autonomy. It can camouflage, 1108 1:55:01 --> 1:55:06 we can say in the in democratic procedures, like elections or freedom of speech, like this 1109 1:55:06 --> 1:55:13 corner in the, in the, in the, uh, in the Hyde Park. It doesn't matter. You can make a speech in your 1110 1:55:13 --> 1:55:18 toilet. Nobody will hear you. It's in, if you're influential and if your voice is heard by millions, 1111 1:55:18 --> 1:55:24 you'll be destroyed. So every state is totalitarian. But now we can see that in the West, 1112 1:55:24 --> 1:55:30 this totally, we can say also the state just shows it real face. It's an apparatus of coercion. 1113 1:55:30 --> 1:55:36 And all this COVID story just shows that it was a disaster of population, almost in all countries 1114 1:55:36 --> 1:55:41 apart, maybe from Belarus, you know, and it shows that people will listen to the government 1115 1:55:41 --> 1:55:45 and they will listen to the advice. They will explain stay at home. And if the government tells 1116 1:55:45 --> 1:55:50 them Russia is your enemy, go and attack Russian embassy, they will do it in London, like with this 1117 1:55:50 --> 1:55:59 protests. So most of the population there, we can see it's like the research. So I want just quick 1118 1:55:59 --> 1:56:03 comment about fertility. There are a lot of factors about fertility, but this is like, I'll tell you 1119 1:56:03 --> 1:56:11 one factor. Consumption of antidepressants of new generations, so-called SSRIs, serotonin selective 1120 1:56:11 --> 1:56:20 inhibitors of like, of this stuff, known to cause loss of libido, permanent sexual dysfunction. 1121 1:56:20 --> 1:56:25 And there is even some rich search, I don't recall either in Canada or in the States, where 1122 1:56:26 --> 1:56:33 they found out that the loss of fertility of the fish in the river, in the rivers, corresponds 1123 1:56:33 --> 1:56:41 to the level of byproducts of antidepressants, which go like through the system of the people 1124 1:56:41 --> 1:56:47 into the sewage system. So it's one of the factors that definitely there is yetrogenic 1125 1:56:47 --> 1:56:55 artificial effect on fertility potentially. And my questions will be, and also I want to say that 1126 1:56:56 --> 1:57:04 many people need to learn from Alexander, analytical skills. It's not enough analytical skills. 1127 1:57:04 --> 1:57:09 He got like systemic knowledge in certain areas where he can see the patterns and he can draw 1128 1:57:09 --> 1:57:16 parallels. But these days people just make very simple conclusions and they talk about like the 1129 1:57:16 --> 1:57:22 leaders. The main thing is the groups, who are the groups of powers. My question will be one of them, 1130 1:57:22 --> 1:57:28 so I want to ask two questions. One of them about sort of world government. And the second one, 1131 1:57:28 --> 1:57:36 what does he think is the Soviet, we can say, Soviet socialist regime of economics? Is it 1132 1:57:36 --> 1:57:43 an alternative to capitalistic regime? So the first one will be about government. In our circle, 1133 1:57:43 --> 1:57:49 for example, the group for the patients in the UK, some people believe that, oh, there is a world 1134 1:57:49 --> 1:57:54 government which controls like everything. So it coordinates these campaigns. And they're saying, 1135 1:57:54 --> 1:57:59 it's impossible. There are a lot of groups of power even within one country. But there are certain 1136 1:57:59 --> 1:58:05 institutions of like world institutions of coordination of the actions where from different 1137 1:58:05 --> 1:58:10 countries, different groups, they gather somewhere through open structures, through closed structures, 1138 1:58:10 --> 1:58:18 and they sort of agree about plan of action. What do you think, Alexander? Do we have world 1139 1:58:18 --> 1:58:22 government or not? Well, I don't think we have exactly a world government in the sense of a 1140 1:58:22 --> 1:58:28 structured group of people who sit together and have a meeting and say, you know, this is what we 1141 1:58:28 --> 1:58:33 got to do in, you know, Peru or whatever it is. I mean, I don't think that is that is exactly what 1142 1:58:33 --> 1:58:46 we have. What we have is a community of people from, you know, decision makers, policy makers, 1143 1:58:46 --> 1:58:57 power makers, people of that kind, relatively small, which comes together, forms a kind of 1144 1:58:57 --> 1:59:05 consensus and which tries to shape events. And I think this is what happens. And I think it is very 1145 1:59:05 --> 1:59:11 powerful. And it absolutely does exist. And I think anybody who thinks that it doesn't just simply 1146 1:59:12 --> 1:59:17 So, of course, they do have their various institutions, places where they meet. You know, 1147 1:59:17 --> 1:59:24 we've heard about the WEF and all of that. And, you know, I'm not saying that that isn't important, 1148 1:59:24 --> 1:59:32 but it isn't just in these places that these people meet. They meet all the time. They meet in every 1149 1:59:32 --> 1:59:42 sort of place that you can find. And they come together. In order to be a part of this community, 1150 1:59:43 --> 1:59:51 you have to have certain views that are shared by the community as a whole. Obviously, you have 1151 1:59:52 --> 1:59:59 power and you have access to power and you apply it. So I think that it's not exactly a world 1152 1:59:59 --> 2:00:06 government, but it is a world ruling class, if I can put it like that. Now, you asked another 1153 2:00:06 --> 2:00:14 question, which is about Soviet Union economics. But could you say that again, actually, because it 1154 2:00:14 --> 2:00:22 sounded interesting. Yeah, I just want to clarify the second question. So to simplify things, 1155 2:00:22 --> 2:00:30 then we can say capitalistic West and to parallel to this system, social political system in the 1156 2:00:30 --> 2:00:37 West, capitalistic system was running, we can say the project, the Soviet project of the Soviet Union, 1157 2:00:37 --> 2:00:43 socialist state, although some people say, use the term like communist, but let's say that's like 1158 2:00:43 --> 2:00:50 the Soviet regime or regime of Eastern Europe was a block like countries. And there were a lot of 1159 2:00:50 --> 2:00:55 similarities in the way they were still sort of market, they were still money, they still sort of 1160 2:00:55 --> 2:01:00 some sort of exploitation. And it was industrial mode of production, with only difference that, 1161 2:01:01 --> 2:01:08 as I see it from what I like witnessed, we have the system where in the Soviets, there is no 1162 2:01:08 --> 2:01:14 private property of production in and you don't have land, you don't have factories to produce 1163 2:01:14 --> 2:01:20 significant wealth in the society. And the system is not working for profit, it just 1164 2:01:20 --> 2:01:26 to satisfy the needs. In the West, it's we can say, mixed system, but most of the stuff is 1165 2:01:26 --> 2:01:32 is a private interest. The huge major corporations, they're looking for profit, they want you to buy 1166 2:01:32 --> 2:01:39 the car like every year or to change your mobile like every, every model. So and the thing is that 1167 2:01:39 --> 2:01:46 the capitalistic regime or system try to reinvent itself, it goes into crises and goes 1168 2:01:46 --> 2:01:54 in new. So we sort of new crisis where they're trying sort of to maybe to moderate consumption 1169 2:01:54 --> 2:01:59 with the stories about global warming, that we should like leave minimalistic style of life. 1170 2:01:59 --> 2:02:05 And capitalism will try to survive. In this case, we see the new waves of near colonial, 1171 2:02:05 --> 2:02:10 we can say wars. What I see in Ukraine, it's actually near colonial war. So what do you think 1172 2:02:11 --> 2:02:17 what we look in the future as a model of like social political regime? Is it some sort of new 1173 2:02:17 --> 2:02:26 vegetarian type of capitalism or it should be some sort of more humanitarian faced Soviet regime? 1174 2:02:26 --> 2:02:32 So what's this is a very, very, very good question. And again, it's if it was easy to answer this 1175 2:02:32 --> 2:02:39 question like this, it would be I there's all sorts of people who are trying to look for 1176 2:02:40 --> 2:02:49 an economic system or at least a social economic system that will be juster and better structured 1177 2:02:49 --> 2:02:58 than the one we have today. I think the thing to say about this is that I am not able to set out 1178 2:02:58 --> 2:03:04 the model for a different system. I do believe that the socialist system that existed in the 1179 2:03:04 --> 2:03:12 Soviet Union was different in fundamental ways from the one that functioned in the West. And 1180 2:03:13 --> 2:03:18 it's important to say also, because this is something that some people have difficulty 1181 2:03:18 --> 2:03:25 accepting that that socialist system did actually function, it worked. I mean, it may not have 1182 2:03:26 --> 2:03:32 provided an abundance of consumer goods and that kind of thing. But if you're talking it is purely 1183 2:03:32 --> 2:03:42 in economic terms, it actually was a functional system. Now, what we are going to head to 1184 2:03:42 --> 2:03:53 in the future, I don't know, I am somebody who strongly wants to believe in democracy, 1185 2:03:53 --> 2:04:01 in human freedom, in human choice, those kinds of things. I would like to believe that the system 1186 2:04:01 --> 2:04:10 that will eventually evolve will satisfy those things which I do believe I do want to believe 1187 2:04:10 --> 2:04:17 are intrinsic to humankind and what I want to say. I want to wrap this straight away. 1188 2:04:17 --> 2:04:23 How the democracy is possible if the people who are in power keeps the power. We know 1189 2:04:23 --> 2:04:30 there were democracies since ancient Athens, where they were choosing their generals. And in 1190 2:04:30 --> 2:04:37 Rome, there was a system of elections as well. They were bribing with food. So the thing is that 1191 2:04:37 --> 2:04:48 the people who are still in power, they will hold this power. If you win the elections, 1192 2:04:48 --> 2:04:54 like as a communist or socialist and try to do some reforms, they will remove you from power. 1193 2:04:54 --> 2:05:00 An example of Chile, so he started moderate reforms, he won elections and the result, 1194 2:05:01 --> 2:05:08 he is butchered and a significant chunk of the population is butchered as well. So in this case, 1195 2:05:08 --> 2:05:14 yeah, there were democracies. That's for again to sustain this camouflage of the apparatus of 1196 2:05:14 --> 2:05:22 coercion. Right. Well, what I was going to say was that is what I would like to see happen. 1197 2:05:22 --> 2:05:31 I am not sure that it will happen. I mean, there is a very strong trend towards a more technocratic, 1198 2:05:31 --> 2:05:38 more controlled system. And I you know, it's entirely possible that we will see that we were 1199 2:05:38 --> 2:05:42 talking about the fact that there is a world ruling class, it could be that it could be organized 1200 2:05:42 --> 2:05:49 around them, or it could be something different with different structures that you know, I can't 1201 2:05:49 --> 2:05:57 imagine. But I am I don't know how it will be. I would like it to be a more democratic system. 1202 2:05:57 --> 2:06:04 I am not saying necessarily that it will be. Now I'm going to suggest that I don't know whether 1203 2:06:04 --> 2:06:09 you're familiar with this, but there was a writer, an American writer in the early 20th century called 1204 2:06:09 --> 2:06:17 Michels. And by the way, he eventually became a fascist and ended up in Italy in the 1920s. 1205 2:06:17 --> 2:06:27 But he was a very profound and incisive writer and a political thinker. And he said that behind 1206 2:06:27 --> 2:06:38 every political system, there is an oligarchy. And he coined the expression the iron law of oligarchy, 1207 2:06:38 --> 2:06:46 that every system ultimately devolves into that. Now I would like to believe that Michels is wrong. 1208 2:06:47 --> 2:06:52 But always, I ask myself, whether perhaps he might have been right. 1209 2:06:53 --> 2:06:58 We're going to move on. Jordan Peterson would agree with that, Evgeny. And Alexander, what you 1210 2:06:58 --> 2:07:04 just said, all right, that that there are certain people that always gravitate, make everybody equal 1211 2:07:04 --> 2:07:09 tomorrow. And within three years, the people who were at the top before will be at the top again. 1212 2:07:09 --> 2:07:15 So we've got two more questions and then Stephen for the last 15 minutes. So thank you, Evgeny. 1213 2:07:15 --> 2:07:20 Good to see you, Mark, then Sebastian and then Stephen. Thanks for that. Alexander, you live in 1214 2:07:20 --> 2:07:28 London. I suggest, have you heard of a weapon system called neural strike? No, tell me about it. 1215 2:07:29 --> 2:07:37 Well, I haven't heard about it. It was a CCP. There was a whistleblower in the PLA who brought 1216 2:07:37 --> 2:07:42 this to the attention of the world. I was looking for the electronic assault weapon and I found it 1217 2:07:42 --> 2:07:48 situated in what the Transport for London call a camera. You've actually got an 1218 2:07:48 --> 2:07:54 electronic assault weapons program being deployed right across London, part of the low emission zone 1219 2:07:54 --> 2:08:01 and deployment. Right. So if you're in London, just have a look on top of the traffic lights, 1220 2:08:01 --> 2:08:06 you'll get a bit of a surprise. There's a lot of very heavy duty hardware on there. A lot of it's 1221 2:08:06 --> 2:08:14 rad hardened, which tells me this is very disturbing. OK. Can you just say, just set the name again? 1222 2:08:15 --> 2:08:21 Neural strike, neural strike. What happened? I've invested, you know, the Blade Runners have been 1223 2:08:21 --> 2:08:26 chopping quite a few of these things down. I was concerned that it didn't look anything like an 1224 2:08:26 --> 2:08:35 NPR camera, supposedly for license plate recognition. It looks very, very militaristic, obviously on 1225 2:08:35 --> 2:08:42 in detailed inspection. I found that's exactly what it was. It's got a piece of hardware in it, 1226 2:08:43 --> 2:08:49 which was built by Thales. However, this was partnered with the Huawei 1227 2:08:50 --> 2:08:55 technology company. Basically, most telecommunications are militarized anyway, 1228 2:08:55 --> 2:09:01 but this is a military piece of hardware. It's a laser guidance weapon system, 1229 2:09:01 --> 2:09:05 abandoned international law for blinding people. And that's what they've deployed right across 1230 2:09:05 --> 2:09:12 London. So unbelievable. Why has this not been talked about more? I mean, I mean, I'm asking a 1231 2:09:12 --> 2:09:17 rhetorical question, but I would nonetheless ask you to because I haven't heard of it. So tell me 1232 2:09:17 --> 2:09:22 why I haven't heard about it. I mean, is it who is doing this? Who is installing these things? 1233 2:09:22 --> 2:09:25 I mean, I'm sorry, I'm asking the question. I'm asking questions that. 1234 2:09:27 --> 2:09:32 The company is called Siemens. But if you look inside, you'll see it's these international defense, 1235 2:09:32 --> 2:09:39 large defense contractors, Thales. It has a operating platform called Azure. Azure was a 1236 2:09:39 --> 2:09:48 5G weapons operating platform built with Microsoft Lockheed Martin, Thales. And it's what drives the 1237 2:09:48 --> 2:09:54 whole thing. But it's been driven with a with a piece of hardware. It's a product called Jamalto. 1238 2:09:55 --> 2:10:01 It's built in China. It's a high speed modem. So it basically controls the whole 1239 2:10:01 --> 2:10:06 electronic assault weapon system. So if you're in and around central London, just have a look on 1240 2:10:06 --> 2:10:12 top of your traffic lights, get a bit of a shock. Yeah, the biometric sensors. Yeah, the biometric 1241 2:10:12 --> 2:10:17 sensors to track people who unfortunately took the, you know, the COVID-19 injection. 1242 2:10:17 --> 2:10:22 Well, Mark, can I just say, I mean, it is absolutely terrible that this thing has been installed in the 1243 2:10:22 --> 2:10:27 way that you say, and that it's not been talked about. As far as I'm aware, there's been no public 1244 2:10:27 --> 2:10:33 debate about it. No information. The media doesn't write about it. There's been no discussion 1245 2:10:33 --> 2:10:38 in parliament. I mean, it's absolutely terrible. You know, once upon a time, and again, I'm sorry 1246 2:10:38 --> 2:10:46 if I'm being a little bit, you know, nostalgic and historicist here. Way back in the 19th century, 1247 2:10:46 --> 2:10:53 there was a debate about imposing licensing on pubs. It's a fact, you know, restrictions on when 1248 2:10:53 --> 2:11:02 people can drink. And there was opposition to this in parliament. And a parliamentarian, 1249 2:11:02 --> 2:11:09 who was actually a bishop, actually said, I would rather see England free than England sober. 1250 2:11:10 --> 2:11:16 So that was the English tradition. I mean, there was always this, obviously, people, you know, 1251 2:11:16 --> 2:11:23 did do regulations, but there was always this pushback against things. Now, there's nothing. 1252 2:11:24 --> 2:11:29 It's able to install these things right across London, apparently, and there's no public debate. 1253 2:11:30 --> 2:11:35 The newspapers don't write about it. The Guardian, which used to write about things like this from a 1254 2:11:35 --> 2:11:40 sort of leftist point of view, because that's what they did. And the Daily Telegraph, which used to 1255 2:11:40 --> 2:11:44 write about these things from a right-wing libertarian point of view, because that's what 1256 2:11:44 --> 2:11:49 they did. They haven't said anything about this. Nobody, you're the first person who's told me 1257 2:11:49 --> 2:11:54 about this. I will certainly look out for these things. Do you actually have a question to me? 1258 2:11:54 --> 2:11:59 Because I've been asking all the questions. Well, it's a question to be fair was to ask if 1259 2:11:59 --> 2:12:05 you knew anything about it. No, I don't. I don't. And I'm absolutely appalled that I don't, actually. 1260 2:12:05 --> 2:12:10 But I will certainly find out about it. And I will contact, I will speak to a few people I know who 1261 2:12:10 --> 2:12:16 would know more about this than, well, obviously, I would certainly know more about me about it than 1262 2:12:16 --> 2:12:22 I do. Because I've been doing nothing about it. Well, TfL, I don't mean it's just a camera, but I've 1263 2:12:22 --> 2:12:28 actually investigated, I have looked inside it, and I do have some of the bits from it. So I can 1264 2:12:28 --> 2:12:36 definitely tell you what it actually is. I should say that to people who don't know, I think London 1265 2:12:36 --> 2:12:42 has more cameras all over the place than pretty much any city in the world. I mean, they've 1266 2:12:42 --> 2:12:47 proliferated to an unbelievable degree. And it's all supposed to be to control traffic. 1267 2:12:47 --> 2:12:53 But that's what it's masquerading for. It's called fusion technology. And you can actually 1268 2:12:53 --> 2:12:58 look down to the nanoscale. So it can actually interrogate the bio metrics of the person. 1269 2:12:59 --> 2:13:04 Right. Right. Well, thank you, Mike. Alexander, they're controlling human beings. 1270 2:13:04 --> 2:13:07 Well, there you go. Yeah. A lot of plant. 1271 2:13:07 --> 2:13:09 The Emperor has no clothes. No. 1272 2:13:10 --> 2:13:13 Just like the eye in America. Yeah. 1273 2:13:13 --> 2:13:17 Yeah. Thanks. Thanks for Alexander. Thank you. Thank you, Mark. 1274 2:13:23 --> 2:13:30 Sebastian. Steven, thanks. I just wanted to mention, I don't know if anyone has 1275 2:13:30 --> 2:13:34 heard about this, but Richard Medhurst was recently arrested in Austria. 1276 2:13:34 --> 2:13:38 I know I have heard about him. He's in touch with me, by the way. 1277 2:13:39 --> 2:13:43 Exactly. I actually contacted him and asked him if he would join us also. 1278 2:13:44 --> 2:13:48 Who has been arrested in Austria? He's a journalist. He's a British journalist. 1279 2:13:50 --> 2:13:52 Based in Vienna. What's his name? 1280 2:13:53 --> 2:13:55 Richard Medhurst. Oh, I know him. Yes, of course. Yeah. 1281 2:13:57 --> 2:14:03 So I didn't know if you were all aware of that. And Alexander, I actually have asked Mark to join 1282 2:14:03 --> 2:14:08 us also on the Durant to speak about this topic because I do think it's very, very important. 1283 2:14:08 --> 2:14:11 That's all I really had to say. So thanks. 1284 2:14:11 --> 2:14:17 You were super short, Sebastian. Well done. All right, Steven, your time, 1285 2:14:17 --> 2:14:22 as I say in the classics, your time has come. Put your video on so we can see your smiley face. 1286 2:14:22 --> 2:14:26 But now I can't remember the questions, but I'll have a go. I can think of more. 1287 2:14:27 --> 2:14:33 So I think one thing that's very surprising to me, Alexander, I think you're very curious as well. 1288 2:14:33 --> 2:14:41 It doesn't take much to arouse your curiosity. I'm pretty curious. I am even at the expense of my 1289 2:14:41 --> 2:14:46 own propaganda, if you like, or my own ideas. I want to explore things to find out what the truth 1290 2:14:46 --> 2:14:53 is. So we had a guest recently who said that the most important things in his opinion were 1291 2:14:54 --> 2:15:00 searching for the truth and courage. So you could put it the way Charles did with 12 different, 1292 2:15:01 --> 2:15:08 you know, battlefronts. But I think the easier way to describe it to people is, 1293 2:15:08 --> 2:15:13 you know, we need to seek the truth and we need to be courageous at this time. And, 1294 2:15:15 --> 2:15:20 and if you if you're not courageous, then you're letting down your own family and your children. 1295 2:15:20 --> 2:15:26 And your grandchildren, if you've got grandchildren. So I think people need to understand 1296 2:15:26 --> 2:15:33 that they have a responsibility to the society in which they live, and not to just constantly 1297 2:15:33 --> 2:15:39 thinking constantly thinking about themselves, and maybe their family, if they're lucky. 1298 2:15:40 --> 2:15:47 It seems that many parents are quite happy to delegate the education system to the children. 1299 2:15:47 --> 2:15:56 Happy to delegate the education so called of their children to the state, and not contribute, 1300 2:15:56 --> 2:16:00 not help the teachers not show any interest. Oh, sorry, I've switched it off instead of 1301 2:16:02 --> 2:16:10 so just trying to get my video. So I just wonder, so I do think I made a few points, 1302 2:16:10 --> 2:16:12 I don't know if you remember them, but it doesn't matter. 1303 2:16:13 --> 2:16:19 No, no, I can't. I can't remember. Carry on. I should say I can I can see a picture, 1304 2:16:19 --> 2:16:24 but I can't see you. That's all we can see your interrogation lights, David, but not your face. 1305 2:16:25 --> 2:16:34 So, yeah, there we are. So I, and so I do think that if we get everything else right, 1306 2:16:35 --> 2:16:42 and we don't address how our children are educated or miseducated, then we will lose the war. 1307 2:16:43 --> 2:16:50 We have to get the education of our children right. Now, you could argue, as I said earlier, 1308 2:16:50 --> 2:16:56 you know, that there's a kind of human beings that find their way eventually, but, you know, 1309 2:16:56 --> 2:17:03 maybe so the Soviet Union, for example, arguably found its way in 1989, but many would disagree. 1310 2:17:03 --> 2:17:14 And it took them from 1917 to 1989 to correct that. So, you know, yes, you know, maybe things 1311 2:17:14 --> 2:17:20 will balance out in the long run, and human beings will find a way. But most human beings want to 1312 2:17:20 --> 2:17:28 kind of enjoy their lives. And so it'd be very good to avoid things before they actually happen, 1313 2:17:28 --> 2:17:33 which are very difficult once they've happened to correct. So I just wonder whether you can 1314 2:17:33 --> 2:17:39 speak generally on some of the things I've just mentioned. I think I think what you have discussed 1315 2:17:39 --> 2:17:46 is the fact that, you know, going back to our first discussion about the fact that we are social 1316 2:17:46 --> 2:17:53 beings, that we are part of the community of Politea, we need to be active and to play an 1317 2:17:53 --> 2:18:03 active role in that, and to work constantly on this, and obviously to have that responsibility 1318 2:18:03 --> 2:18:08 to our children. And I think this is absolutely true. Now, I have just become a parent over the 1319 2:18:08 --> 2:18:15 last three years, my children, my two oldest children are now starting what's called preschool 1320 2:18:15 --> 2:18:21 in England. And one of the things I've discovered, and which we all parents are discovering, 1321 2:18:22 --> 2:18:29 is that we are not left alone as parents. We are constantly under pressure now from the school 1322 2:18:29 --> 2:18:39 system to basically control our children in the way that they want us to control. So if any parents 1323 2:18:39 --> 2:18:46 will confirm this, by the way, I mean, they might not see it in exactly my perspective. But 1324 2:18:46 --> 2:18:52 in terms of upbringing of children, it's very much the school now, 1325 2:18:53 --> 2:19:01 which is of course, an institution of, you know, the wider state, which is pushing constantly upon 1326 2:19:01 --> 2:19:10 you to do various things to make sure that they, you know, take particular lessons, that they are 1327 2:19:11 --> 2:19:17 brought up in a certain way, that they exercise certain forms of speech and behaviour, 1328 2:19:17 --> 2:19:20 and you know, all this business of, you know, comfort zones and all of that. 1329 2:19:22 --> 2:19:29 I had never imagined the extent to which it happens. And bear in mind, I'm talking about 1330 2:19:29 --> 2:19:38 two little girls who are three. Yeah. So, I'm just changing the subject a little bit, but not much. 1331 2:19:39 --> 2:19:43 Do you think Sweden is a pilot study for totalitarianism? 1332 2:19:44 --> 2:19:50 I don't know enough about Sweden to be able to say, perhaps. I've never been there, by the way. 1333 2:19:50 --> 2:19:55 I've never been to Sweden. My parents used to love Sweden. They used to go there in the 60s 1334 2:19:55 --> 2:20:01 in its social democratic heyday. Targa Erlander was the Prime Minister at that time, and they loved 1335 2:20:01 --> 2:20:08 it. And for them, this was the ideal. But then they were very much old guard leftists. It would 1336 2:20:08 --> 2:20:14 appeal to them. I don't know what Sweden is really like, but maybe it is. So, in 1969, a book was 1337 2:20:14 --> 2:20:20 written by a British guy, I think, called Roland Hunford. It was called The New Totalitarians. 1338 2:20:20 --> 2:20:27 When I went to Sweden in the 80s, my wife is Swedish, I became aware of this book, and I 1339 2:20:27 --> 2:20:35 was fascinated by it. And there was another book called, the book's title was called, it was called 1340 2:20:35 --> 2:20:42 A Clean, Well-Lighted Place. And after five years of living in Sweden, that resonated with me. I knew 1341 2:20:42 --> 2:20:48 what it meant. But I couldn't articulate what it meant, if you understand me. But I recognised the 1342 2:20:48 --> 2:20:54 title, and I've remembered it to this day. Very interesting, isn't it, how human beings operate. 1343 2:20:54 --> 2:21:00 So, a clean, well-lighted place. The thing about Sweden, which is very unusual, is that the 1344 2:21:00 --> 2:21:07 population of Sweden believes its government. That's why it didn't need a lockdown. 1345 2:21:08 --> 2:21:16 And I think that there are suspicions in my mind that Sweden was a pilot study in totalitarianism. 1346 2:21:18 --> 2:21:24 I mean, that is very interesting. And again, as I said, I've never been there, so I don't 1347 2:21:24 --> 2:21:31 know very much about it. But a population that believes its government is a deluded population, 1348 2:21:31 --> 2:21:38 by definition. Completely lost. Completely lost. I couldn't put my finger on it when I was there. 1349 2:21:38 --> 2:21:44 I really couldn't. But I felt as though I was on a mission there. I couldn't understand the place. 1350 2:21:44 --> 2:21:47 I was trying to understand it. Because without understanding the country in which you live, 1351 2:21:47 --> 2:21:53 or the society in which you live, you're very vulnerable. So I need, I think, this is why 1352 2:21:53 --> 2:21:58 foreigners grow and they go to a different country. So I think the best education is 1353 2:21:58 --> 2:22:02 actually moving to a different country and surviving in that country, especially when 1354 2:22:02 --> 2:22:08 it's totally new to you. It's a really steep learning curve. And essentially, you know, 1355 2:22:08 --> 2:22:12 you might go back to your own country because you failed in that new country, because you don't 1356 2:22:12 --> 2:22:21 understand it. And so, I think, so, I think, I just try to think of what's the most important 1357 2:22:21 --> 2:22:25 thing to talk about. In my mind, I think the most important thing to talk about 1358 2:22:26 --> 2:22:32 is what's happened in the last, since 2020 in particular. It seems to me that governments 1359 2:22:32 --> 2:22:38 all around the world thought it was okay to psychologically damage, to psychologically attack 1360 2:22:39 --> 2:22:43 their own populations. They forgot that they were the servants of the people. 1361 2:22:43 --> 2:22:49 Your children and all children need to learn at school the relationship between the individual 1362 2:22:49 --> 2:22:57 and the state. You know, what is the aim? We are not servants of the state. In Sweden, 1363 2:22:58 --> 2:23:06 there's something called knäckebröd, which is a special hard bread. It has big holes on one side. 1364 2:23:06 --> 2:23:11 This is simplifying maybe, you know, there may be other differences. But to me, as a bloke, 1365 2:23:12 --> 2:23:19 it's had big holes on one side and small holes on the other side. And I was told by one of my 1366 2:23:19 --> 2:23:25 friends, my Swedish friends, who came from the Swedish-Finnish border and was very influenced by 1367 2:23:25 --> 2:23:32 Finland. And of course, Finland had been in the Winter War with Russia. So, they knew about 1368 2:23:32 --> 2:23:42 suffering. He told me that Swedish children learned at school, sorry, at Dargis, it was called. It 1369 2:23:42 --> 2:23:48 was a kind of place for the children to be deposited while the mothers went out to work. 1370 2:23:50 --> 2:24:01 You know, in the feminism wave, should we say. And so, they learned at Dargis how to butter 1371 2:24:01 --> 2:24:07 the knäckebröd. So, when I was saying to my wife and to my Swedish friends, you know, 1372 2:24:07 --> 2:24:13 this knäckebröd, what do I do with this? Oh, all the Swedes knew. And they all had the same story 1373 2:24:14 --> 2:24:20 because they'd learned about it in Dargis, not from their parents, but from Dargis. So, 1374 2:24:20 --> 2:24:30 the parents left everything to Dargis when I was there in the 80s. So, I'm mentioning all this. 1375 2:24:30 --> 2:24:34 I wonder whether you can see a pattern which we need to get into the curriculum of every... 1376 2:24:34 --> 2:24:44 Well, I think that I am seeing this already in the school that my children are attending, 1377 2:24:44 --> 2:24:49 which is that they are expected to behave in a certain way. I don't mean that, you know, 1378 2:24:49 --> 2:24:56 I'm not talking about them not being disruptive or, you know, anything of that kind. But 1379 2:24:56 --> 2:25:06 their speech is now being monitored in the school which they go to. And ultimately, of course, 1380 2:25:06 --> 2:25:10 through the speech, their thought in a way that would have been completely inconceivable 1381 2:25:10 --> 2:25:16 when I was at school. I do think there's going to be a pushback against this as well, by the way, 1382 2:25:16 --> 2:25:20 in England. I think that we are a different society. 1383 2:25:20 --> 2:25:22 You do or you don't, Alexander? 1384 2:25:22 --> 2:25:27 I think we do. I think we will. I think we are a different society in Sweden. I think that there 1385 2:25:27 --> 2:25:33 is a more, well, if you like, a more anarchic spirit still. 1386 2:25:33 --> 2:25:35 Well, you say that, Alexander, but I'm... 1387 2:25:35 --> 2:25:37 You know what I was going to say. Yeah. 1388 2:25:37 --> 2:25:44 No, you say that, but I'm despairing because I see the similarities increasing rather than decreasing. 1389 2:25:44 --> 2:25:50 Well, as I mentioned at the start of the program, that with every single year that has passed, 1390 2:25:50 --> 2:25:59 since I first came to England in 1968, I've seen liberty, if you like, gradually erode away. 1391 2:26:02 --> 2:26:07 When I say that I think that there will be a backlash against it and all that, you know, 1392 2:26:07 --> 2:26:13 I'm not going to pretend or I don't pretend to myself. That is what I want to see. And of course, 1393 2:26:13 --> 2:26:19 what I want to see is what I hope I will see. But, you know, I might be disappointed. 1394 2:26:19 --> 2:26:24 But, Alexander, so, you know, you mentioned your children. You've got children and you need to 1395 2:26:24 --> 2:26:29 educate them. So how are you going to educate them in a state education system? Because I think you're 1396 2:26:29 --> 2:26:36 going to have a big shock. Well, probably. I mean, I should say that, I mean, I play a very active role 1397 2:26:36 --> 2:26:42 in the life of my children. I mean, I read books to them. I tell them stories. I have my own ideas. 1398 2:26:42 --> 2:26:48 My wife is the same. So I think that we do have that influence over our children. 1399 2:26:49 --> 2:26:58 And obviously, that is something which I think we will fight to preserve and retain. But I can 1400 2:26:58 --> 2:27:04 already foresee that we're going to have problems going forward. I don't want to discuss this in too 1401 2:27:04 --> 2:27:10 much detail because I can't speak for her. But my wife has already had many issues at university, 1402 2:27:10 --> 2:27:18 for example. I mean, she's found it very difficult to express certain opinions, not just about Russia, 1403 2:27:18 --> 2:27:28 but just general opinions about things without encountering not just criticism, but pressure. 1404 2:27:30 --> 2:27:38 Well, almost, absolutely. For some members of the academic and managerial body. 1405 2:27:38 --> 2:27:46 So, I understand you. So not the students so far. Interestingly. Yeah, I don't want to pry, 1406 2:27:46 --> 2:27:51 Alexander. Is she British or is she foreign? She's absolutely British. I mean, her mother was German, 1407 2:27:51 --> 2:27:57 but she was brought up in Britain. She is absolutely British in every other respect. 1408 2:27:57 --> 2:28:02 Yes, her mother was German. That's the German connection I have, if you like, but she's very British. 1409 2:28:03 --> 2:28:08 Interesting. But both you and she have a foot in two countries, essentially. 1410 2:28:10 --> 2:28:15 And the same with the Afghani. It really is a magnificent education, I think. Just actually 1411 2:28:15 --> 2:28:24 having knowledge of two countries is enough. But anyway, I just want to ask you, Alexander, 1412 2:28:24 --> 2:28:30 after the last four years and what we're seeing now in America, what are the big lessons in your 1413 2:28:30 --> 2:28:35 view? You know, you might, you know, in a perfect world, you might like more time to think about. 1414 2:28:36 --> 2:28:42 But off the top of your head, what can you see now, the two or three most important things that we 1415 2:28:42 --> 2:28:49 need to understand about what has happened since 2020? And I think it was treason, by the way, 1416 2:28:49 --> 2:28:55 worldwide treason. Yeah, I think the first and most important thing to take away is the government's 1417 2:28:55 --> 2:29:00 lie. All governments lie. I mean, either way, I've said this many times, I said this on my 1418 2:29:00 --> 2:29:06 programs, all governments lie. And one should not assume that what you're being told by any government 1419 2:29:06 --> 2:29:14 is true. That is the first thing. That is the first thing that anybody who wants to be an active and 1420 2:29:15 --> 2:29:22 effective citizen should remember. And the second is that there is always an impulse 1421 2:29:22 --> 2:29:32 within government, society, the state to try to control and to try to extend control. 1422 2:29:32 --> 2:29:36 As somebody who worked inside state bureaucracies and have seen them from the inside, 1423 2:29:36 --> 2:29:44 I can absolutely say that. And the other things, the other side, the positive sides, is to remember 1424 2:29:44 --> 2:29:53 the importance of human autonomy, human dignity, human independence, the right of free speech, 1425 2:29:54 --> 2:30:03 those sort of things, because that is what enables us to hold back and to resist these pressures that 1426 2:30:03 --> 2:30:09 are always going to be there. Absolutely. Thank you so much, Alexander, for coming to speak to us. 1427 2:30:09 --> 2:30:14 Thank you very much. Thank you. Beautifully said. Thank you, Alexander. Thank you, Sebastian, 1428 2:30:14 --> 2:30:18 for your role. Stephen, well done for organizing. Thank you, everybody, for your contributions. 1429 2:30:18 --> 2:30:24 Don't forget to save the chat. And we'll be back again. And on we go in our fight for truth, 1430 2:30:24 --> 2:30:31 justice, freedom, ethics and health. And Alexander, as John Cleese would say, 1431 2:30:32 --> 2:30:38 I think it was John Cleese, you're a very naughty boy, because you've sat here for two and a half 1432 2:30:38 --> 2:30:43 hours and you have not even had to go to the toilet once, which clearly means you're not drinking 1433 2:30:43 --> 2:30:48 enough water. So get more water into you. All right, everybody. Thank you very much. Thank you, 1434 2:30:48 --> 2:30:52 everyone. Thank you, Alexander. And Alexander, I think one thing that I would say to people is 1435 2:30:52 --> 2:30:59 they need to be learned to be awkward. Yeah, absolutely. When you need to stand up and defend 1436 2:30:59 --> 2:31:04 yourself and your family. Absolutely. So few people are prepared to do that these days. 1437 2:31:04 --> 2:31:09 What do you say, Jocheny? Just a quick question. The books on the top shelf beside the medallion 1438 2:31:09 --> 2:31:15 of Alexander, Alexanderos Megalos. Yeah, is it Alexander the Great? Alexander the Great. That 1439 2:31:15 --> 2:31:20 was a present, by the way. So on the top shelf, all these books, like the similar, on the top shelf, 1440 2:31:20 --> 2:31:25 the small books, what is this? The small books, they're some of the Greek classics. 1441 2:31:25 --> 2:31:32 Ah, I was trying to guess all the time and just. They're from the American Loeb edition of the 1442 2:31:32 --> 2:31:39 Greek. Loeb library. Loeb library. Yes, thank you. And further to what Charles just said, Alexander, 1443 2:31:39 --> 2:31:45 I would say that you're a naughty boy because you don't put forward the views that the state 1444 2:31:45 --> 2:31:51 would like you to put forward. Oh, yeah. Yes. Very naughty boy. So, Sebastian, so you, Stephen, 1445 2:31:51 --> 2:31:57 so all of us here. All right, everybody, stay naughty, stay awkward. Bye, everybody. Thank you. 1446 2:31:57 --> 2:32:09 Thank you very much. Very good. Thank you so much. Thank you.
