[0:00]Uh I want to play you a little clip from uh Rupert Lowe where he's basically saying what I've heard from from many people, that London is dying. Have a listen, Myron.
[0:10]I think London actually is is quietly dying. I I I mean when I was young and I was in London during the the 80s, London was booming, and everybody wanted to be in London because it was, it was free, it was entrepreneurial.
[0:27]And Myron, I was there in the '80s and that's exactly what it was all about. But uh Myron, is London dying and why?
[0:38]Yeah, well, I think I agree with Rupert Lowe, London is dying. I mean, London is the capital city of Britain. It should be the crown jewel representative of Britain. But I think it's primarily dying and sorry to say the old cliche is is mass immigration.
[0:52]I mean, London is 30% white British.
[0:58]Now, people might say, why are you focusing on ethnicity, but the white British is is a marker, is a reference point for culture. And when you have mass immigration, you at this level and you have the white demographic declining, you effectively have a cultural apartheid that develops.
[1:17]You don't get a melting pot where everyone comes together as one cohesive society. You have one part of London dominated by one ethnic group, another part dominated by another ethnic group. And so what happens is you have a low trust divisive society.
[1:28]So I think that's primarily the reason why London is dying. Added to that, there's about half a million illegal immigrants in the black economy working around in some way, at least that number.
[1:38]And so you put that all together combined with things like social housing. Half of social housing has been attributed that's government housing attributed to people who are um where the lead has been born from another had been born abroad.
[1:52]So effectively, what you you have is that that London has in some way being almost extra-ted away from from Britain itself. And then there's there's high crime.
[2:00]80,000 phones stolen uh last year, knife crime soaring as well. A pint of beer is uh around 8 pounds, which I think is about 16 Australian dollars. You piece this all together, and this is why London is dying.
[2:16]And and you might say, why is Sadiq Khan always getting elected? Why is he still ruling over London? Well, I'll say the answer to that is it's because whenever he gets pushed in a corner about all these issues, he plays a diversity card. He plays a race card or the Islamophobia card.
[2:30]And that plays to the demographic of London and that's something that Trump bought out um earlier, that when a demographic changes, eventually you elect a leader who supports the demographic change and it's not really representative of what I would say Britain should be. James.
[2:45]Myron, I really want to dive deeper into this question. And we're going to talk, you know, about some of the really hideous cases and accusations against some people in migrant hostels and places like that that have really made the headlines. But more broadly, there's a bigger issue here.
[2:59]And this is, you know, the progressive left, not just in Britain, but in Europe and in America and in Australia.
[3:07]They have been told by their constituency for years, if not decades, please do something about migration. And yet, if they did that, they'd all be in power. They could do whatever progressive stuff they'd have a huge mandate to do other progressive leftie, you know, stuff economically or whatever. Why can't the left get it through their skull that this is what the people actually want? What is so threatening to them about the people who actually live in their countries that they want to have somebody else come in?
[3:40]Well, I think it's some of it is complacency, some of it is about economics. I think uh Thatcher was a great Prime Minister, for example, but what Thatcher did was she made conservatism all about free market economics and and not about culture.
[3:56]And so that got lost. Tony Blair then carried on the mantle and he effectively said, do you know what, we want cheap labor and it and we've become a drug addicted economy addicted to cheap foreign labor. So that's the first thing that happens with the with the treasury coming in.
[4:09]The the second thing is, I think that the left don't want to admit something some underlying truth and you touched upon this earlier in your earlier discussion, which is that not all cultures are the same. And, you know, Donald Trump recently brought up this idea of of targeting the Somali community.
[4:26]Now, you may disagree with some of the rhetoric that he used, but the main thrust of his point was, when you're dealing with a national situation with border control, you have to discriminate country by country based on cultural norms.
[4:39]If you have a country like Afghanistan or Sudan or Iraq, which normalizes child marriage, is it a good idea to bring in young or allow young tens of thousands of young men to come into your country and freely roam around?
[4:52]Is that a, is that a logical thing to do? So, in my opinion, culture has been relegated, um below economics, but I think culture should be above economics and even at the level of national security. And I think that's where the the left has gone horribly, horribly wrong. Rita.
[5:10]Myron, there was a very high profile case that just concluded in the UK, two Afghan nationals, asylum seekers who were convicted for raping a teenage girl and was the evidence in the trial and and the commentary from one of the defense lawyers which was really interesting about those cultural differences.
[5:37]And um then we've got people who come here, who are not used to women having equal rights.
[5:46]This sort of thing is almost inevitable. Tell me about that case. There was some footage that was released that was pretty harrowing and there were fears that that footage could spark riots.
[5:59]Yeah, I mean, these were two Afghan apparently children, um who actually targeted a lone girl who'd managed to get separated from her friends. Um she appealed for help, um unfortunately, she didn't get the help, uh tragically, and she was raped as you as you said.
[6:16]And I I would just add that this is a daily occurrence where we are having illegal migrants who've been housed in taxpayer hotels, taxpayer funded hotels, who are allowed to roam the streets from the countries I just mentioned, Afghanistan, Sudan, Eritrea, and so on.
[6:33]They are allowed to roam the streets. And what's what's happening is, um on a daily occurrence, we're having some form of rape, murder or sexual assault.
[6:40]And under any normal circumstance, you would be calling a national state emergency.
[6:47]But labor, the labor government are largely silent on this whole issue, even though it's happening on a daily basis. So there is an element of absolute helplessness, a sense of despair, a sense of frustration and rage, because every crime committed by an illegal migrant has the fingerprints of Kier Starmer and the Labor government.
[7:06]You can't compare these crimes with ordinary crimes committed by British citizens. You know, and Afghans, for example, are three to four times more likely, if not, um and by the sense of migration control actually says it's 22 times more likely to commit sexual assault than the average Brit.
[7:22]So this is a massive disproportion and we are allowing these people into our country who shouldn't be here. They should be detained or and they should be deported.
[7:30]The last thing they should be doing is allowed to be roam free on the streets. And that is what has happened every single day. We have we we're getting these incidents come forward.
[7:39]Um Myron, I also wanted to ask you a little bit more of what uh Rupert Lowe spoke about with London and the problem with London, and I suspect it's the same in other major cities.
[7:49]But all these insane climate regulations and so on. So Rupert Lowe specifically pointed to London having like a 20K uh blanket speed limit. There's all those U-les kind of emissions zones, where if you had this type of car, you can't drive.
[8:00]Uh there's the regulation. I know last time I drove in London, it was just a horror show. I couldn't, it was just a nightmare. And this has led to small little rural shopping centers and that closing down. Uh you're not getting the small businesses. Uh does he have a point with that?
[8:18]Is is is the climate uh cult if you like, really starting to damage places like London?
[8:29]I mean, Sadiq Khan has introduced these ultra ultra emission zones, ultra low emission zones, where he's really put like really, um you have to pay, you have to pay extortion amounts for if you if you're running a business and you're trying to like get around London in a big van, your construction and so on. All of these things you it just makes it completely unviable.
[8:48]So you combine that with also, I would say trains, um are are not often very late. You have what we often have strikes, the unions are very powerful, especially under Labor these days. So all of these things combined means that London is somehow paralyzed.
[9:04]Um and there like I said, there is this sense, Rupert put it quite quite succinctly that there is a sense that we are dying. We are losing faith in ourselves.
[9:14]We are losing faith in public services, the ability that everything is broken, nothing seems to work. That is the mood combined with a fragmented low trust society, this escalates and amplifies the whole situation. But definitely, Sadiq Khan, whether it's diversity, and it's also climate change. Those are the two classic things that Labor keep banging on about and Sadiq Khan is no different.
[9:33]Myron, Senthil Nathan, always great to chat to you and you stay up late to chat to us, which is great. Thank you so much. You've been a big part of the success of this year outsiders and we look forward to seeing you next year and have a very Merry Christmas there in London.
