got started? Yeah. And how do we fix

15
00:00:38,094 --> 00:00:40,172
it? We turned it off and we turned

16
00:00:40,172 --> 00:00:42,024
it back on again. There you go. The...

17
00:00:42,264 --> 00:00:44,180
When doubt. Is there an advice there, or

18
00:00:44,180 --> 00:00:47,293
anything we can when technology tends to appreciate

19
00:00:47,293 --> 00:00:49,289
that. Does it work for human beings? It

20
00:00:49,289 --> 00:00:50,886
does that's what they did with my heart

21
00:00:50,886 --> 00:00:52,818
when it would work. They said we'll stop

22
00:00:52,818 --> 00:00:54,976
it and start at the again cardio version.

23
00:00:55,295 --> 00:00:57,213
What's the worst that could happen? Yeah. It

24
00:00:57,213 --> 00:00:59,370
doesn't start again. But that it did work

25
00:00:59,370 --> 00:00:59,930
first time.

26
00:01:01,539 --> 00:01:02,256
Yeah. Okay.

27
00:01:04,009 --> 00:01:06,161
Yeah. Plumbing computers. So good when they work.

28
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,803
Yeah. Way this thing works 99 percent of

29
00:01:08,803 --> 00:01:09,780
the time. But

30
00:01:11,269 --> 00:01:13,257
when they don't... It's the right fa, Ai.

31
00:01:13,416 --> 00:01:15,166
But, what we're talking about today Sean on

32
00:01:15,166 --> 00:01:15,962
truth and lies,

33
00:01:16,534 --> 00:01:18,555
Yeah. I'd I've I've had so many

34
00:01:19,814 --> 00:01:20,295
people.

35
00:01:22,135 --> 00:01:23,415
Collectively and individually.

36
00:01:23,988 --> 00:01:26,400
Talking about the the fact that

37
00:01:26,776 --> 00:01:29,325
we've just had the election. And also told

38
00:01:29,325 --> 00:01:31,237
about the election in France, it seems to

39
00:01:31,237 --> 00:01:32,352
kicks a lot of people here.

40
00:01:33,723 --> 00:01:35,880
But people saying they're all effing liars,

41
00:01:36,919 --> 00:01:38,437
and they promise all this stuff, and they

42
00:01:38,437 --> 00:01:39,555
won't deliver anyway.

43
00:01:40,129 --> 00:01:42,522
And and Kia Would come out and said

44
00:01:42,522 --> 00:01:44,436
they were gonna build so many houses in,

45
00:01:45,233 --> 00:01:48,025
whatever time. Yep. And then everybody, the I

46
00:01:48,025 --> 00:01:48,663
spoken to.

47
00:01:50,111 --> 00:01:52,096
I can't find anybody that is gonna yeah,

48
00:01:52,255 --> 00:01:53,764
That's good idea. They're saying well it's all

49
00:01:53,764 --> 00:01:55,987
bloody lies because they won't do it. And

50
00:01:55,987 --> 00:01:58,687
then and then when they do, they've got

51
00:01:58,687 --> 00:01:59,060
this

52
00:01:59,498 --> 00:02:02,311
and releasing plots to build them. They're gonna

53
00:02:02,370 --> 00:02:05,161
release all the lovely green lands and and

54
00:02:05,161 --> 00:02:06,836
all the brown land that be just left.

55
00:02:07,075 --> 00:02:09,645
You know, there was... Excuse me while. Coffee

56
00:02:09,645 --> 00:02:11,164
machine switches off. Yeah.

57
00:02:12,205 --> 00:02:12,705

59
00:02:15,004 --> 00:02:16,419

63
00:02:24,033 --> 00:02:26,507
my little perspective on. Yeah. How, I do

64
00:02:26,507 --> 00:02:27,784
my best to tell the truth at all

65
00:02:27,784 --> 00:02:28,423

77
00:02:51,085 --> 00:02:52,751
A bit more simple. And I think it's

78
00:02:52,751 --> 00:02:54,497
probably, you know, 678 years. We've been doing

79
00:02:54,497 --> 00:02:55,711
this. We we keep

hoping for

82
00:02:59,512 --> 00:03:00,945
peace and quiet in our lives for a

83
00:03:00,945 --> 00:03:03,015
long time. But... Yeah. It doesn't come. Does

No. 1 1 set of issues up another

86
00:03:07,729 --> 00:03:09,904
And then you you go and get elected

87
00:03:09,962 --> 00:03:10,462

88
00:03:11,557 --> 00:03:12,217

91
00:03:15,705 --> 00:03:17,435
for a couple of years, and then then

92
00:03:17,713 --> 00:03:18,906
then we can chill out and like, oh,

93
00:03:19,144 --> 00:03:21,212

94
00:03:21,610 --> 00:03:21,769
Okay.

95
00:03:23,836 --> 00:03:26,239
Anyway, but, yeah, Clearly before we start, you

96
00:03:26,239 --> 00:03:27,436
posted something into your Facebook.

97
00:03:28,713 --> 00:03:31,028
Oh, in the week I saw about an

98
00:03:31,028 --> 00:03:34,460
anniversary Percy pig. Yeah. Interesting because and 6

99
00:03:34,460 --> 00:03:34,914
of

100
00:03:35,750 --> 00:03:36,069
July,

101
00:03:36,626 --> 00:03:37,422
2 years ago,

102
00:03:38,377 --> 00:03:40,447
I had the mitral valve in my heart

103
00:03:40,447 --> 00:03:41,561
replaced, which is all lost of fun.

104
00:03:43,169 --> 00:03:46,201
And if it wasn't percy pig contributing that

105
00:03:46,201 --> 00:03:48,356
valve, I wouldn't be here. Nope. And that

106
00:03:48,356 --> 00:03:50,032
was really weird because I I was veggie

107
00:03:50,032 --> 00:03:50,591
at the time.

108
00:03:52,277 --> 00:03:54,130
And it was really odd to make that

109
00:03:54,266 --> 00:03:56,175
decision to agree to have that vow.

110
00:03:56,812 --> 00:03:57,766
Vegetarian. Right? Yeah.

111
00:03:58,578 --> 00:04:00,890
But yeah. Well, you're not ingesting it. Are

112
00:04:00,890 --> 00:04:00,970
you?

113
00:04:01,927 --> 00:04:04,798
But you're still... It's... I mean, Percy sell

114
00:04:04,798 --> 00:04:06,313
to give up his life to give me

115
00:04:06,313 --> 00:04:09,592
the valves. Yeah. I mean, yeah. Vegetarians not

116
00:04:09,592 --> 00:04:12,057
have, like, blood transfusion or do they go?

117
00:04:12,296 --> 00:04:14,340
Some some will be really? Well They were

118
00:04:14,459 --> 00:04:16,699
haven't been. I mean, I ended up I

119
00:04:16,699 --> 00:04:18,379
to have 6 units of blood and so

120
00:04:18,620 --> 00:04:21,500
Was I had no pigs blood. No people.

121
00:04:21,660 --> 00:04:22,060
It could've have been.

122
00:04:23,112 --> 00:04:24,410
And put in

123
00:04:24,867 --> 00:04:27,419
and had to have the new valve. Yeah.

124
00:04:28,696 --> 00:04:29,196
And

125
00:04:30,291 --> 00:04:32,125
my blood count was so low.

126
00:04:32,698 --> 00:04:35,567
That I ended up eating meat again, and

127
00:04:35,567 --> 00:04:37,319
it's... I to get what your iron levels

128
00:04:37,319 --> 00:04:40,285
are for or good goodness no. And I...

129
00:04:40,525 --> 00:04:41,965
I'm at a point at the moment where

130
00:04:42,045 --> 00:04:44,444
I'm, especially with the anniversary of Percy day.

131
00:04:44,764 --> 00:04:47,405
Yep. I'm thinking, should I go back to

132
00:04:47,405 --> 00:04:48,845
being veggie again? I do it.

133
00:04:49,578 --> 00:04:51,646
I'm, I'm going through those kind of internal

134
00:04:51,646 --> 00:04:53,476
conflicts. At least you're here with us to

135
00:04:53,476 --> 00:04:55,385
have those kind of your to go through

136
00:04:55,385 --> 00:04:55,862
all that stuff.

137
00:04:56,514 --> 00:04:58,584
Yeah. I thought I'd be with Percy. Where

138
00:04:58,584 --> 00:04:58,823
the person.

139
00:05:00,655 --> 00:05:02,885
Yeah chatting out with him. Yeah. I wonder

140
00:05:02,885 --> 00:05:04,159
what percy he's up to. But, yeah. No

141
00:05:04,159 --> 00:05:06,561
1 consistently here. 2 years since the operation,

00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:28,113
gist of your part you have your blog

183
00:06:28,113 --> 00:06:29,647
post. It's just for the

184
00:06:30,198 --> 00:06:31,894
where we seem to be at a point

185
00:06:32,032 --> 00:06:32,851
in our,

186
00:06:33,707 --> 00:06:34,207
our

187
00:06:34,664 --> 00:06:38,892
social life. Mh. Where nobody believes anything anybody

188
00:06:38,892 --> 00:06:41,610
says anymore. And like these politicians come out

189
00:06:41,610 --> 00:06:42,722
and say what they say.

190
00:06:43,358 --> 00:06:43,858
And

191
00:06:44,787 --> 00:06:47,273
a few people will follow them because they're

192
00:06:47,329 --> 00:06:47,829
followers

193
00:06:48,139 --> 00:06:50,132
Yep. But the majority of people present whether

194
00:06:50,132 --> 00:06:52,046
they're all liars on there. So they just

195
00:06:52,046 --> 00:06:54,279
lie. You know. But then when you you

196
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:55,555
get into it with them, they then say,

197
00:06:55,635 --> 00:06:57,403
well, you know, like, the managers of the

198
00:06:57,403 --> 00:06:59,572
same, you know, where I work and

199
00:06:59,946 --> 00:07:01,932
you. Yeah. What, the people do. You okay?

200
00:07:02,170 --> 00:07:04,872
Yeah. And all, or you got politics. You've

201
00:07:04,872 --> 00:07:07,056
got business, You got social media,

202
00:07:07,590 --> 00:07:10,056
and it's... And and the attitude since being

203
00:07:10,056 --> 00:07:11,329
loved everyone's just for a bullshit.

204
00:07:12,522 --> 00:07:14,290
You know, And they say you can't believe.

205
00:07:14,450 --> 00:07:15,726
You know I was gonna say anything else

206
00:07:15,805 --> 00:07:17,719
Yeah. And you can't believe it. I don't

207
00:07:17,719 --> 00:07:20,191
know. We, you know, Our green party counselor.

208
00:07:20,351 --> 00:07:21,807
For those that don't know and

209
00:07:22,518 --> 00:07:24,032
we did a lot of campaigning price of

210
00:07:24,032 --> 00:07:26,421
the election in Be, and the new constituency

211
00:07:26,421 --> 00:07:27,616
of Broken head where we thought we had

212
00:07:27,616 --> 00:07:29,448
a semi decent chance of making a dent.

213
00:07:29,687 --> 00:07:30,961
You know. We came a strong second, by

214
00:07:30,961 --> 00:07:31,280
the way,

215
00:07:32,254 --> 00:07:34,814
greens, which is pretty cool. Exciting. Good.

216
00:07:35,935 --> 00:07:37,295
But, yeah. You know, when you're out and

217
00:07:37,295 --> 00:07:37,795
about

218
00:07:38,415 --> 00:07:40,588
local politics and national politics a bit different

219
00:07:40,588 --> 00:07:42,525
because... Yeah. Yeah. Your local counselor

220
00:07:43,223 --> 00:07:45,139
should be a bit more hands are and

221
00:07:45,139 --> 00:07:46,656
a bit more, you know, you, you know,

222
00:07:46,735 --> 00:07:48,572
every little hedge in every little pavement that

223
00:07:48,572 --> 00:07:49,584
needs fix it. And

224
00:07:51,215 --> 00:07:52,886
I feel like local counsel has perhaps have

225
00:07:52,886 --> 00:07:53,386
a

226
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,386
slightly better reputation in terms of, you know,

227
00:07:56,719 --> 00:07:57,993
trying to be out there and help in

228
00:07:57,993 --> 00:07:59,985
where I think can. Not all, but that's

229
00:07:59,985 --> 00:08:01,259
certainly we try and do. But, you know,

230
00:08:01,578 --> 00:08:03,113
They'll there'll be people that

231
00:08:03,649 --> 00:08:04,445
dislike me. And in fact,

232
00:08:06,854 --> 00:08:08,454
when I got elected, so we got a

233
00:08:08,454 --> 00:08:10,294
very good in my ward, we were the

234
00:08:10,294 --> 00:08:10,794
highest,

235
00:08:11,654 --> 00:08:13,415
polling candidates across all the world.

236
00:08:14,388 --> 00:08:16,535
But even that, I think it was 45

237
00:08:16,535 --> 00:08:17,194
percent turnout

238
00:08:17,648 --> 00:08:19,954
on for the local election of people that

239
00:08:19,954 --> 00:08:20,614
could vote,

240
00:08:21,465 --> 00:08:23,313
less than half did. And then of the

241
00:08:23,313 --> 00:08:24,031
people that did vote,

242
00:08:24,989 --> 00:08:25,888
maybe only

243
00:08:26,426 --> 00:08:29,060
30, 40 percent voted for for us or

244
00:08:29,060 --> 00:08:31,350
50 percent. So, like, a quarter of the

245
00:08:31,788 --> 00:08:33,779
people who can vote in Bev,

246
00:08:34,416 --> 00:08:36,726
Did vote for us Mh for me, which

247
00:08:36,726 --> 00:08:37,226
isn't

248
00:08:37,682 --> 00:08:38,797
twin... It's not massive visit.

249
00:08:39,434 --> 00:08:41,842
But, I mean, yeah. So who knows what

250
00:08:41,842 --> 00:08:43,358
our reputation is a lot of people won't

251
00:08:43,358 --> 00:08:44,098
even know,

252
00:08:44,555 --> 00:08:45,593
that I exist. And,

253
00:08:46,152 --> 00:08:47,988
we were... I was away for the general

254
00:08:47,988 --> 00:08:50,789
election result night I was working down in

255
00:08:50,789 --> 00:08:52,717
exeter. So I was in a pub

256
00:08:53,090 --> 00:08:54,702
watching the exit poll

257
00:08:55,154 --> 00:08:57,297
with a load of academics just doing some

258
00:08:57,297 --> 00:08:57,774
work with them.

259
00:08:59,061 --> 00:09:00,995
So we went to the pub? And someone

260
00:09:01,291 --> 00:09:02,827
of our group went to the

261
00:09:03,601 --> 00:09:04,261
the bar

262
00:09:04,637 --> 00:09:05,911
staff and said, can you put the tele

263
00:09:05,911 --> 00:09:07,186
on so we can watch the big result?

264
00:09:07,759 --> 00:09:08,259
Or

265
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,959
and but there was 2 or 3 members

266
00:09:10,959 --> 00:09:13,039
of the bar stuff and none of them

267
00:09:13,039 --> 00:09:14,720
knew what we were talking about, Like, what

268
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,733
you mean? What results? And they were like,

269
00:09:17,133 --> 00:09:18,571
oh, we said up with the election, you

270
00:09:18,571 --> 00:09:20,409
know, a big the exit paul in 10

271
00:09:20,409 --> 00:09:22,326
minutes, and they were like, oh, is that

272
00:09:22,326 --> 00:09:22,566
today?

273
00:09:24,738 --> 00:09:27,216
Crazy Like, what what planet you living on

274
00:09:27,216 --> 00:09:28,814
and part of that is it's funny, but

275
00:09:28,814 --> 00:09:29,474
it's also,

276
00:09:30,332 --> 00:09:30,492
you know,

277
00:09:31,291 --> 00:09:32,670
maybe they don't have a hype

278
00:09:33,544 --> 00:09:35,142
reputation of politicians. But if you don't even

279
00:09:35,142 --> 00:09:37,380
know there's a woman election on. What right

280
00:09:37,380 --> 00:09:38,759
do you do we have to

281
00:09:39,138 --> 00:09:41,716
complain about, you know, the lack of trust

282
00:09:41,775 --> 00:09:43,865
because off off people don't even know it's

283
00:09:43,865 --> 00:09:44,843
going up. And

284
00:09:45,221 --> 00:09:47,693
it's crackers. Crazy. So we got some work

285
00:09:47,693 --> 00:09:49,925
to do don't we? Yeah. To rebuild trust.

286
00:09:50,244 --> 00:09:50,404
Yeah.

287
00:09:52,014 --> 00:09:54,511
But but the idea about, and,

288
00:09:55,210 --> 00:09:57,287
if you're a young person, and you're brought

289
00:09:57,287 --> 00:09:58,965
up in a world the where you're told.

290
00:09:59,776 --> 00:10:03,190
That you can't actually believe anything anybody says.

291
00:10:03,508 --> 00:10:05,652
Mh. You know, what does that mean for

292
00:10:05,652 --> 00:10:08,193
teachers for... I mean, obviously, politicians.

293
00:10:08,922 --> 00:10:11,542
But do you assume everybody appears on the

294
00:10:11,542 --> 00:10:14,242
screen he's just talking Bullshit or... Yeah. I

295
00:10:14,242 --> 00:10:15,750
hope not because that's quite a poisonous thing

296
00:10:15,750 --> 00:10:17,338
isn't it that can well it has been

297
00:10:17,338 --> 00:10:19,420
working way through society for a for a

298
00:10:19,420 --> 00:10:20,057
while and,

299
00:10:20,932 --> 00:10:21,648
it's not healthy.

300
00:10:22,205 --> 00:10:25,069
But what we've had some stunning examples. Someone,

301
00:10:25,228 --> 00:10:27,472
obviously, you got the putin's and people like

302
00:10:27,472 --> 00:10:29,940
that. But with Donald Trump. And it's like

303
00:10:29,940 --> 00:10:32,488
all the legal technicalities around him. Yeah. And

304
00:10:32,488 --> 00:10:35,330
then what we we had Bo ourselves and

305
00:10:35,528 --> 00:10:37,748
all those interesting and things about party game

306
00:10:37,748 --> 00:10:40,048
and stuff like that. Yep. And and when

307
00:10:40,048 --> 00:10:42,268
you're in a situation where someone at that

308
00:10:42,268 --> 00:10:42,744
level,

309
00:10:43,473 --> 00:10:46,258
and we'll create a rule that you've gotta

310
00:10:46,258 --> 00:10:49,121
follow. Yeah. And they'll do exactly the opposite.

311
00:10:49,678 --> 00:10:49,917
You know,

312
00:10:50,568 --> 00:10:52,720
Can you believe people? Can you trust people?

313
00:10:53,916 --> 00:10:54,234
I know.

314
00:10:55,031 --> 00:10:57,263
We're living in times where we're talking about

315
00:10:57,263 --> 00:10:58,081
change and

316
00:10:58,711 --> 00:10:59,905
Yeah. For a lot of this stuff and

317
00:10:59,905 --> 00:11:02,531
people don't react well to change all that

318
00:11:02,531 --> 00:11:04,919
well often. And I guess, the tricky part

319
00:11:04,919 --> 00:11:06,829
that we have now thinking environment is that

320
00:11:06,829 --> 00:11:08,513
we have to make a lot of change

321
00:11:08,513 --> 00:11:09,147
very quickly.

322
00:11:10,417 --> 00:11:13,297
Massive scale, you know, population level stuff. So

323
00:11:13,352 --> 00:11:16,074
but the problem that we have is that

324
00:11:16,304 --> 00:11:18,636
if we can't trust the people

325
00:11:19,091 --> 00:11:20,286
that are telling these things.

326
00:11:20,844 --> 00:11:22,357
How do we know what to do? Yeah.

327
00:11:22,915 --> 00:11:24,906
Especially if you're a younger person?

328
00:11:25,639 --> 00:11:27,395
And someone saying, you know, we need to

329
00:11:27,395 --> 00:11:29,390
do this to say at the planet is

330
00:11:29,390 --> 00:11:30,588
the device in the back of your head

331
00:11:30,588 --> 00:11:32,264
thinking and us know, bubbles. I wonder know

332
00:11:32,264 --> 00:11:33,302
what they're gonna get out of it.

333
00:11:34,514 --> 00:11:37,055
And I mean, that's the problem. Mh. And

334
00:11:37,055 --> 00:11:38,722
and it's like, if you think about it,

335
00:11:39,675 --> 00:11:41,740
add all the public figures around.

336
00:11:42,629 --> 00:11:44,460
Who would you say? Well, yes, there were

337
00:11:44,460 --> 00:11:46,132
really trustworthy for only person. They're a good

338
00:11:46,132 --> 00:11:47,326
person. You could trust them?

339
00:11:48,043 --> 00:11:49,874
And I think that's quite hard at the

340
00:11:49,874 --> 00:11:50,272
moment.

341
00:11:51,004 --> 00:11:51,723
It it's tricky.

342
00:11:52,361 --> 00:11:54,357
I think it's probably overstated. You know, most

343
00:11:54,357 --> 00:11:56,672
folks that I meet within the council are

344
00:11:56,672 --> 00:11:58,109
pretty good on the whole. I've just had

345
00:11:58,109 --> 00:11:58,929
an email

346
00:11:59,706 --> 00:12:00,446
about some

347
00:12:00,757 --> 00:12:02,343
Tory who's trying to kick up a fuss

348
00:12:02,343 --> 00:12:03,295
about a cycle lane,

349
00:12:04,405 --> 00:12:05,381
so which is

350
00:12:06,625 --> 00:12:09,497
frustrating me somewhat. I need to formulated good

351
00:12:09,497 --> 00:12:09,894
response to that.

352
00:12:11,404 --> 00:12:12,993
Sorry to... But, you know, but I know

353
00:12:12,993 --> 00:12:15,377
it's pop very popular to Bash on tori

354
00:12:15,377 --> 00:12:17,379
now about geez, meant they're so annoying. Some

355
00:12:17,379 --> 00:12:18,200
of them. Yeah.

356
00:12:21,460 --> 00:12:23,379
Can you trust anything that they say. But

357
00:12:23,379 --> 00:12:25,139
that's all can I start it you say?

358
00:12:25,713 --> 00:12:27,707
Well for because we're rid of the tory

359
00:12:27,707 --> 00:12:28,744
now aren't we, you know, and that was

360
00:12:28,744 --> 00:12:31,376
a big part of the election for a

361
00:12:31,376 --> 00:12:32,573
lot of people when I was doing knocking,

362
00:12:32,732 --> 00:12:34,168
they just wanted to rid the tory, you

363
00:12:34,168 --> 00:12:36,251
know, whatever it took because like him or

364
00:12:36,251 --> 00:12:36,331
not.

365
00:12:37,521 --> 00:12:39,346
I think people just wanted a change. And

366
00:12:39,346 --> 00:12:41,170
in fact, that was the labour party. Name

367
00:12:41,250 --> 00:12:42,678
Motto was near a change.

368
00:12:44,122 --> 00:12:45,952
But it's changed gonna be enough because... Yeah.

369
00:12:46,191 --> 00:12:47,782
Okay. It's not just enough to get rid

370
00:12:47,782 --> 00:12:49,453
of someone else. You've gotta have your own

371
00:12:49,453 --> 00:12:50,089
vision in your own.

372
00:12:51,697 --> 00:12:53,930
And a lot of frustration for left leaning

373
00:12:53,930 --> 00:12:55,844
folks the that the green party has been

374
00:12:55,844 --> 00:12:56,902
pulling in is that

375
00:12:58,077 --> 00:13:01,119
the labor message wasn't strong enough. And they're

376
00:13:01,119 --> 00:13:03,181
not gonna be delivering. They're not honest enough

377
00:13:03,181 --> 00:13:05,561
about the environment. They're not delivering enough change

378
00:13:05,561 --> 00:13:08,037
in terms of social justice and But but

379
00:13:08,037 --> 00:13:10,423
it... If you look at the processes going

380
00:13:10,423 --> 00:13:12,491
across the world where the world is moving

381
00:13:12,491 --> 00:13:15,133
towards the right. Yeah. Yeah. Which is the

382
00:13:15,133 --> 00:13:17,289
kind of fascist thing that happened before the

383
00:13:17,289 --> 00:13:19,284
war. Yeah. Heard about that. Yeah. Yeah

384
00:13:20,083 --> 00:13:20,583
And

385
00:13:21,041 --> 00:13:22,477
when when when I look at,

386
00:13:24,088 --> 00:13:26,019
I don't know whether it was Far ar

387
00:13:26,075 --> 00:13:28,538
lot that did for the conservatives. He would

388
00:13:28,538 --> 00:13:31,732
claim it is. And his his voice saying

389
00:13:31,732 --> 00:13:33,803
we're gonna come out of the labour party

390
00:13:33,803 --> 00:13:34,121
next.

391
00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:34,918
Now,

392
00:13:36,112 --> 00:13:38,899
if people believe raj because he makes a

393
00:13:38,899 --> 00:13:39,616
lot of noise.

394
00:13:40,188 --> 00:13:42,494
And could be more plausible than the others

395
00:13:42,494 --> 00:13:43,630
people like Kia

396
00:13:44,005 --> 00:13:46,867
required wouldn't Mh in their presentation. You know,

397
00:13:46,946 --> 00:13:49,093
does that mean that people will go with

398
00:13:49,093 --> 00:13:49,411
hours.

399
00:13:49,904 --> 00:13:52,065
Yeah. So we move further to the right.

400
00:13:53,024 --> 00:13:55,585
And and then Yeah. That creates the conflict.

401
00:13:55,745 --> 00:13:57,504
That creates wars to me.

402
00:13:58,318 --> 00:13:59,673
Historically when I look at it. Yeah.

403
00:14:00,550 --> 00:14:01,666
There's a show I need. I think it's

404
00:14:01,666 --> 00:14:03,339
only... I I play at the moment about

405
00:14:03,339 --> 00:14:05,173
the rise of the Nazis, and it's focusing

406
00:14:05,173 --> 00:14:07,416
it's focusing on that. 20 years before World

407
00:14:07,416 --> 00:14:10,197
or 2 kicked off period. I've been told

408
00:14:10,197 --> 00:14:11,787
to watch it because it's quite pre in

409
00:14:11,787 --> 00:14:13,058
terms of where we are at the moment.

410
00:14:13,217 --> 00:14:13,535
So... Yeah,

411
00:14:15,299 --> 00:14:16,838
you know, I'm not 1 of those kinda

412
00:14:16,977 --> 00:14:20,652
necessarily jumping on the Kia awful bandwagon. You

413
00:14:20,652 --> 00:14:22,270
know, He had a tactic. He worked

414
00:14:22,663 --> 00:14:24,810
can hopefully, you can stabilize things with his

415
00:14:24,810 --> 00:14:26,242
team. I think I think it it is

416
00:14:26,242 --> 00:14:28,390
down to everything that you set up at

417
00:14:28,390 --> 00:14:30,298
this point. Fabulous It's okay. What you're gonna

418
00:14:30,298 --> 00:14:32,777
do now. Yeah. I actually seeing what happens.

419
00:14:32,936 --> 00:14:34,684
And I only know that over time. Yeah.

420
00:14:34,843 --> 00:14:36,353
It's been felt quite interesting in the first

421
00:14:36,353 --> 00:14:38,260
few days since and the put appointments made

422
00:14:38,260 --> 00:14:40,182
in messaging that's been sent out. From my

423
00:14:40,182 --> 00:14:41,534
point of view, it's been okay. That's quite

424
00:14:41,534 --> 00:14:43,760
cool. Yeah. At least it seems sort of,

425
00:14:45,748 --> 00:14:47,736
like, the grown ups are in charge in

426
00:14:47,736 --> 00:14:49,486
some way. And Mh really interested that.

427
00:14:50,138 --> 00:14:50,457
Appointment.

428
00:14:51,174 --> 00:14:53,805
The prisons minister, mister Tim is it, the

429
00:14:53,805 --> 00:14:55,558
the businessman who owns Tim,

430
00:14:56,037 --> 00:14:57,312
you know, Cobb isn't and lung.

431
00:14:58,842 --> 00:15:00,996
He's... I don't... I didn't... Wasn't aware prior

432
00:15:00,996 --> 00:15:02,351
to it, but he's got quite an interesting

433
00:15:02,351 --> 00:15:04,266
in prison service and how we...

434
00:15:04,984 --> 00:15:06,999
I think that they actually Tim

435
00:15:07,376 --> 00:15:07,876
provide

436
00:15:09,385 --> 00:15:11,858
working, experiencing things for people coming out present?

437
00:15:12,177 --> 00:15:13,692
Yeah. I think they do a lot of

438
00:15:13,692 --> 00:15:14,591
that kind of

439
00:15:15,128 --> 00:15:16,962
some stuff. So he's talking a lot about

440
00:15:16,962 --> 00:15:17,680
he has in the past.

441
00:15:18,493 --> 00:15:19,927
About how he wants to reduce the pressure

442
00:15:19,927 --> 00:15:22,318
on the prisons by having fewer prisoners, you

443
00:15:22,318 --> 00:15:25,266
know, and not being so obsessed with punishments.

444
00:15:25,918 --> 00:15:26,474
And, you know,

445
00:15:27,188 --> 00:15:29,331
retribution against people over. It it interesting because

446
00:15:29,490 --> 00:15:31,553
I I worked in both the prison service

447
00:15:31,553 --> 00:15:34,092
and high security forensic psychiatry.

448
00:15:34,904 --> 00:15:37,141
And the amount of times, I would be

449
00:15:37,141 --> 00:15:40,018
in the prisons, and and the people that

450
00:15:40,018 --> 00:15:42,095
were in there inmates. Many of them were

451
00:15:42,095 --> 00:15:42,595
really

452
00:15:42,908 --> 00:15:43,408
psychiatric

453
00:15:43,863 --> 00:15:45,454
associations. There should have been in hospital not

454
00:15:45,454 --> 00:15:47,363
in prison. Yeah. I can't remember the proportion

455
00:15:47,363 --> 00:15:48,954
be. I think that's why he said roughly,

456
00:15:49,192 --> 00:15:50,957
a third people, are are in prison need

457
00:15:50,957 --> 00:15:53,024
to be in prison. You know? Another. Another

458
00:15:53,024 --> 00:15:55,489
nerds. Yeah. Need to be in some sort

459
00:15:55,489 --> 00:15:57,715
of health care, and then it third probably

460
00:15:57,715 --> 00:15:58,749
don't need to be in prison, and they

461
00:15:58,749 --> 00:16:00,837
can be out in society, you know, keep,

462
00:16:01,236 --> 00:16:03,551
being kept an eye on and Yeah. You

463
00:16:03,551 --> 00:16:05,387
know. But they're allowed to live with their

464
00:16:05,387 --> 00:16:07,224
kids and their families and their, Yeah. They're

465
00:16:07,224 --> 00:16:08,820
kept an eye on them looked after. A

466
00:16:08,820 --> 00:16:11,644
bit more. But but the amount of therapeutic

467
00:16:12,099 --> 00:16:14,487
need for people and prisons is huge. It's

468
00:16:14,487 --> 00:16:16,715
just not that. Mh. You know, and to

469
00:16:16,715 --> 00:16:19,117
be banged up, that 1 of the places

470
00:16:19,197 --> 00:16:20,791
I was, and they would bang the prisoners

471
00:16:20,791 --> 00:16:23,101
up for 23 hours a day. Mh. You

472
00:16:23,101 --> 00:16:25,093
know, they were allowed out to empty their

473
00:16:25,093 --> 00:16:25,730
toilet pots.

474
00:16:26,383 --> 00:16:28,237
And they were allowed out for an hour's

475
00:16:28,454 --> 00:16:30,526
exercise and to get their food. But I

476
00:16:30,526 --> 00:16:31,345
mean, effectively,

477
00:16:31,801 --> 00:16:33,647
that was it. Yeah. I guess that kind

478
00:16:33,647 --> 00:16:35,076
of... It was talk... I heard it talk

479
00:16:35,076 --> 00:16:36,983
about that culture of punishment in the Uk

480
00:16:36,983 --> 00:16:38,253
and how we're... We're a bit of obsessed

481
00:16:38,253 --> 00:16:40,477
on aren't we... You know the closest to

482
00:16:40,477 --> 00:16:42,965
countries too about. Punishing people that do wrong,

483
00:16:43,125 --> 00:16:46,164
whether that's children being, you know, smack or

484
00:16:46,965 --> 00:16:49,538
or people that have, you know, committed crime

485
00:16:49,538 --> 00:16:51,852
being sent jail, you know, and serving their

486
00:16:51,852 --> 00:16:55,364
time rather than sometimes children don't respond well

487
00:16:55,364 --> 00:16:56,721
to being in hit a a lot of

488
00:16:56,721 --> 00:16:57,040
the time.

489
00:16:58,091 --> 00:17:00,719
Sometimes people that, I don't know, could stolen

490
00:17:00,719 --> 00:17:02,789
something, the the the best thing isn't for

491
00:17:02,789 --> 00:17:03,983
them to go to jail. You're gonna make

492
00:17:03,983 --> 00:17:05,416
it you're gonna make the problem worse, You

493
00:17:05,416 --> 00:17:07,578
know? I I think that the question that

494
00:17:07,578 --> 00:17:08,555
we don't ask,

495
00:17:10,042 --> 00:17:11,949
and we don't ask for lots of of

496
00:17:11,949 --> 00:17:14,744
reasons, but it's like, when someone does something,

497
00:17:14,903 --> 00:17:16,569
We look at what they've done and we're...

498
00:17:16,807 --> 00:17:18,632
We we react to that rather than looking

499
00:17:18,632 --> 00:17:20,457
at why did they do it? Yeah.

500
00:17:21,189 --> 00:17:23,343
What was it that led them doing that

501
00:17:23,343 --> 00:17:24,301
thing. Absolutely.

502
00:17:25,498 --> 00:17:28,073
And I'm not suggesting that we find excuses

503
00:17:28,131 --> 00:17:28,690
for people.

504
00:17:29,262 --> 00:17:31,750
But we might find reasons, which help us

505
00:17:31,806 --> 00:17:32,681
solve the problem.

506
00:17:33,237 --> 00:17:34,691
Hope so. Hopefully, we'll get

507
00:17:35,145 --> 00:17:37,132
about, you know, some deeper level of thinking.

508
00:17:37,450 --> 00:17:37,950
And

509
00:17:38,579 --> 00:17:40,655
we're we're a strange little Island down for

510
00:17:40,655 --> 00:17:41,852
of fascinating people.

511
00:17:43,369 --> 00:17:43,848
And we'll see.

512
00:17:44,647 --> 00:17:45,844
But, yeah. Go back to the kind of

513
00:17:45,844 --> 00:17:48,101
mandate thing about my own story, but

514
00:17:48,574 --> 00:17:51,211
I mean Ke And his team and men

515
00:17:51,211 --> 00:17:51,691
and women,

516
00:17:52,490 --> 00:17:55,366
were, I think they got 36 percent of

517
00:17:55,366 --> 00:17:58,491
the votes and they but stick got 60

518
00:17:58,491 --> 00:17:59,842
percent of the seats. Thanks to our.

519
00:18:01,033 --> 00:18:02,623
Which, I mean, I'll be few and if

520
00:18:02,702 --> 00:18:04,212
I was a well, a green party.

521
00:18:05,102 --> 00:18:06,614
We got 8 percent of the vote, and

522
00:18:06,614 --> 00:18:08,842
we got, like, 1 percent of seats. So...

523
00:18:09,001 --> 00:18:11,149
And... But it's even more pre pronounced for

524
00:18:11,149 --> 00:18:12,079
reform who got

525
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,140
14, 15 percent and 5 seats. So

526
00:18:16,599 --> 00:18:18,940
Of... Our voting system and

527
00:18:19,414 --> 00:18:21,330
how we distribute the power is a bit...

528
00:18:21,649 --> 00:18:23,485
Did do you think that the first pass

529
00:18:23,485 --> 00:18:25,799
to post system doesn't work. Oh, and it

530
00:18:25,799 --> 00:18:26,858
should be proportionate

531
00:18:27,556 --> 00:18:29,721
representation mean, it works for for a certain.

532
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,426
Do they delivers strong governments? Doesn't it a

533
00:18:32,426 --> 00:18:34,257
lot of the time. Mh. But, no. It's

534
00:18:34,257 --> 00:18:36,100
not fair. And I think we're 1 of

535
00:18:36,100 --> 00:18:37,948
the only countries in the world that still

536
00:18:38,082 --> 00:18:40,381
stick cling onto to it. But we're won

537
00:18:40,381 --> 00:18:42,466
the only countries in the world that has

538
00:18:42,997 --> 00:18:45,327
seats that opposite each other in parliament and...

539
00:18:45,487 --> 00:18:47,405
Yeah. Most places are a whole show. Yeah.

540
00:18:47,645 --> 00:18:49,883
No. I think we needed fundamental restructure of

541
00:18:49,883 --> 00:18:51,641
and of that. And you wonder how that

542
00:18:51,641 --> 00:18:52,621
would impact on

543
00:18:53,652 --> 00:18:54,391
the public's

544
00:18:54,766 --> 00:18:57,867
perception of power and, you know, trust in

545
00:18:57,867 --> 00:18:58,822
poll in politicians.

546
00:18:59,458 --> 00:19:00,810
I don't. I mean, plenty of other the

547
00:19:00,810 --> 00:19:01,788
countries have

548
00:19:02,575 --> 00:19:04,188
that, you know, a proportional

549
00:19:04,642 --> 00:19:07,185
system, but there's dis still hate politicians and

550
00:19:07,185 --> 00:19:08,162
politics and

551
00:19:08,616 --> 00:19:10,445
I I can remember going around the houses

552
00:19:10,445 --> 00:19:10,945
parliament

553
00:19:11,493 --> 00:19:11,993
and

554
00:19:12,527 --> 00:19:14,834
when I the answer. And it was the

555
00:19:14,834 --> 00:19:16,584
the red lines in front of each of

556
00:19:16,584 --> 00:19:18,254
the seats and saying to the the guy.

557
00:19:18,493 --> 00:19:20,576
What what those? And he said, those are

558
00:19:20,576 --> 00:19:22,587
the lines where you're not allowed to cross

559
00:19:23,042 --> 00:19:26,304
to separate the 2 2 boxes. So why

560
00:19:26,304 --> 00:19:28,783
do you separate Those lines are 2 so

561
00:19:28,783 --> 00:19:31,246
lengths apart. Oh yeah. So they couldn't kill

562
00:19:31,246 --> 00:19:32,994
each other. They run now to go that.

563
00:19:33,232 --> 00:19:33,470
Yeah.

564
00:19:34,757 --> 00:19:36,052
Which is a real kind of

565
00:19:36,586 --> 00:19:38,654
confrontation parliament. Isn't it... It is... Yeah.

566
00:19:40,006 --> 00:19:41,597
Yep. But we are where we are aren't

567
00:19:41,597 --> 00:19:43,124
me, but... I mean, is there hope you

568
00:19:43,124 --> 00:19:44,400
think in the coming years? Or do you

569
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:46,075
think can you see things just spiraling more

570
00:19:46,075 --> 00:19:48,229
and more out control? Or... I... What 1

571
00:19:48,229 --> 00:19:50,302
of my fears is that we go back

572
00:19:50,302 --> 00:19:52,536
into a third world war kind of scenario,

573
00:19:52,695 --> 00:19:54,378
which could be quite devastating.

574
00:19:55,171 --> 00:19:57,393
Yes. I would have thought so. Yeah. Because

575
00:19:57,393 --> 00:19:59,401
what... You know, if you forget the people

576
00:19:59,536 --> 00:20:01,147
and think of it of the weapons,

577
00:20:01,774 --> 00:20:04,406
and people pressing buttons. Mh. You know, what

578
00:20:04,406 --> 00:20:06,958
would be that far towards may be sane,

579
00:20:07,517 --> 00:20:09,989
but it may be a huge reduction in

580
00:20:09,989 --> 00:20:10,866
the population?

581
00:20:11,839 --> 00:20:13,753
I don't know. I don't know. I yeah.

582
00:20:13,913 --> 00:20:15,827
That should been a of very scary thought,

583
00:20:15,986 --> 00:20:18,060
but, I mean, But I I think that

584
00:20:18,060 --> 00:20:18,879
the more

585
00:20:19,257 --> 00:20:21,011
that people can tell the truth.

586
00:20:21,664 --> 00:20:23,744
And the more than people can believe that

587
00:20:23,744 --> 00:20:25,924
they're telling the truth then the more sanity

588
00:20:25,984 --> 00:20:27,025
we're gonna have. Yeah.

589
00:20:27,664 --> 00:20:29,640
And it... And that's the thing is that

590
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,680
I I suppose the issue is we talk

591
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:33,599
about wires and the wide lies and all

592
00:20:33,599 --> 00:20:35,140
round kinds up. But it's like,

593
00:20:35,519 --> 00:20:35,839
you know,

594
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,532
individually, are we all honest And if we're

595
00:20:39,532 --> 00:20:41,606
dishonest, are we dishonest because,

596
00:20:42,164 --> 00:20:44,238
we're trying to be nice to people? Yep.

597
00:20:44,557 --> 00:20:46,710
You know, it's like when your wife comes

598
00:20:46,710 --> 00:20:48,385
down and says, what my bum look like

599
00:20:48,385 --> 00:20:49,991
and the this. Do you say it looks

600
00:20:49,991 --> 00:20:51,818
like it's gonna bought out the sun? Or

601
00:20:51,818 --> 00:20:54,282
do you say it looks absolute fabulous Okay?

602
00:20:54,441 --> 00:20:55,394
You know, what what do you say?

603
00:20:56,364 --> 00:20:58,039
Yeah. We've done... We have... I'll trying to

604
00:20:58,039 --> 00:20:59,794
link to some old shows where we've talked

605
00:20:59,794 --> 00:21:01,869
about truth and lies and Yeah. And from

606
00:21:01,869 --> 00:21:03,305
a more bike. Yeah.

607
00:21:04,432 --> 00:21:05,781
Relationship point of view that kind of. But,

608
00:21:05,861 --> 00:21:05,940
yeah,

609
00:21:06,972 --> 00:21:08,559
and I've talked as well about how it's

610
00:21:08,559 --> 00:21:10,623
been fascinating in watching my kids grow older

611
00:21:10,623 --> 00:21:11,075
and

612
00:21:11,835 --> 00:21:13,694
how early in life they

613
00:21:14,075 --> 00:21:16,075
they kind of realize that you that you

614
00:21:16,075 --> 00:21:17,994
can tell little white lies to try and

615
00:21:17,994 --> 00:21:19,514
get away with something or to get your

616
00:21:19,514 --> 00:21:20,609
own way or

617
00:21:21,126 --> 00:21:22,103
you know, got

618
00:21:23,112 --> 00:21:24,780
my kids have got friends that live close

619
00:21:24,780 --> 00:21:26,607
by, so you can see that sometimes they

620
00:21:26,607 --> 00:21:28,434
try and play parents off each other in

621
00:21:28,434 --> 00:21:29,125
terms of

622
00:21:30,198 --> 00:21:31,470
can I start? Can I sleep over a

623
00:21:31,470 --> 00:21:33,775
thing goes tonight? His mom said it alright,

624
00:21:34,013 --> 00:21:35,229
and then... But

625
00:21:35,842 --> 00:21:37,788
she actually hasn't maybe. But

626
00:21:38,163 --> 00:21:40,231
they we say that. Okay. If it's alright

627
00:21:40,231 --> 00:21:41,504
with them, tell them it's fine with us,

628
00:21:41,583 --> 00:21:42,617
and then they go back to the other

629
00:21:42,617 --> 00:21:45,337
parent and say, ed Edge mom, dad says

630
00:21:45,337 --> 00:21:47,167
it's fine to sleep over. Can we stay

631
00:21:47,167 --> 00:21:48,042
over tonight? And then...

632
00:21:49,314 --> 00:21:51,477
Yeah. And then he texted the pair iranian

633
00:21:51,477 --> 00:21:53,568
like, hang on They just... They've just completely

634
00:21:53,704 --> 00:21:54,204
done

635
00:21:54,738 --> 00:21:55,295
fair plate.

636
00:21:57,045 --> 00:21:59,528
But, yeah, kids kids learn stuff fairly early

637
00:21:59,528 --> 00:22:01,360
on. Don't think? But is that what we're

638
00:22:01,360 --> 00:22:03,272
talking about? Who are they learning it from?

639
00:22:03,590 --> 00:22:05,263
They've learning it from their friends? Okay? They're

640
00:22:05,263 --> 00:22:07,197
gonna learn it from? And

641
00:22:07,508 --> 00:22:08,304
their parents.

642
00:22:08,781 --> 00:22:10,373
Are they gonna learn it sort of siblings?

643
00:22:10,611 --> 00:22:12,601
Are they gonna learn it from the media?

644
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:14,908
Yeah. You know? Yeah. But they get lessons

645
00:22:14,908 --> 00:22:16,522
of being caught out as well on

646
00:22:16,911 --> 00:22:19,290
I think there was 1 when My son

647
00:22:19,290 --> 00:22:21,352
had just started to be... We've given him

648
00:22:21,352 --> 00:22:22,542
a bit more freedom to go out on

649
00:22:22,542 --> 00:22:24,779
his bike and, you know, it's be a

650
00:22:24,779 --> 00:22:26,937
bit further afield, and we'd asked him where

651
00:22:26,937 --> 00:22:27,677
he'd been

652
00:22:28,216 --> 00:22:29,335
because we were a bit suspicious.

653
00:22:30,613 --> 00:22:32,132
And he said. I've just been around it.

654
00:22:32,371 --> 00:22:33,650
So it's so his house not far.

655
00:22:34,944 --> 00:22:36,622
And my mom had been out in her

656
00:22:36,622 --> 00:22:39,100
car and seen, like, him quite far from

657
00:22:39,100 --> 00:22:41,497
home, busted, you know, I was quite proud

658
00:22:41,497 --> 00:22:42,776
of him actually because he was being God.

659
00:22:42,936 --> 00:22:43,675
He was looking

660
00:22:44,229 --> 00:22:45,828
stopped across the road and all that. But

661
00:22:45,828 --> 00:22:47,905
he can't much further than than he was

662
00:22:47,905 --> 00:22:49,743
allowed to. And we were we busted rumble

663
00:22:49,743 --> 00:22:51,102
them, and it was fun and then kinda

664
00:22:51,102 --> 00:22:51,602
watching

665
00:22:52,061 --> 00:22:53,440
she realized we knew

666
00:22:53,832 --> 00:22:55,974
where he'd been spotted and him trying to

667
00:22:55,974 --> 00:22:57,323
backtrack and get out of it. You know,

668
00:22:57,481 --> 00:22:57,981
sometimes

669
00:22:58,592 --> 00:22:59,488
politicians are

670
00:23:00,258 --> 00:23:02,022
grown up get caught out. Don't they we

671
00:23:02,022 --> 00:23:03,931
can, tell him little white lies, and then

672
00:23:03,931 --> 00:23:05,147
it's fascinating watching

673
00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,612
the kinda of lies and unravel and,

674
00:23:08,163 --> 00:23:08,961
I was just doing this

675
00:23:09,599 --> 00:23:11,832
Didn't mean to us. So... Yeah. Yeah. We

676
00:23:11,832 --> 00:23:14,943
learn the consequences doing. Yeah. It and it's

677
00:23:14,943 --> 00:23:16,936
interesting for me having worked in the Middle

678
00:23:17,016 --> 00:23:17,256
East.

679
00:23:18,787 --> 00:23:21,340
And the example always was. I heard it

680
00:23:21,340 --> 00:23:23,973
said those times. You could leave your phone

681
00:23:23,973 --> 00:23:25,010
on the park bench.

682
00:23:26,142 --> 00:23:27,657
And come back in 2 hours, and it

683
00:23:27,657 --> 00:23:29,970
would still be there because the people didn't

684
00:23:29,970 --> 00:23:30,289
seal.

685
00:23:30,927 --> 00:23:31,427
And

686
00:23:32,522 --> 00:23:34,696
terms of, like, that level honesty

687
00:23:35,326 --> 00:23:36,837
what they would say is the reason they

688
00:23:36,837 --> 00:23:38,506
didn't steal was that if they didn't, they

689
00:23:38,506 --> 00:23:40,335
got caught, they get their hand cut off.

690
00:23:40,573 --> 00:23:43,290
Yeah. Therefore they didn't do it. Lots a

691
00:23:43,290 --> 00:23:45,379
different kind of, yeah, punishment

692
00:23:46,309 --> 00:23:49,009
around it. Okay. But but but that that

693
00:23:49,009 --> 00:23:51,313
idea about, you know, you you you were

694
00:23:51,313 --> 00:23:53,477
saying earlier on about how we can be

695
00:23:53,477 --> 00:23:54,994
quite strict about things.

696
00:23:55,712 --> 00:23:58,606
Is it that if you have that strict

697
00:23:58,745 --> 00:24:01,790
that people do comply? Yeah. Know noble that's

698
00:24:01,790 --> 00:24:03,303
again as matt as a fair... That's an

699
00:24:03,303 --> 00:24:06,010
awful fourteenth and even contemplate like. That's another

700
00:24:06,010 --> 00:24:07,364
way of doing it. And, you know, it's

701
00:24:07,364 --> 00:24:08,718
1 way of getting results, I guess, isn't

702
00:24:08,718 --> 00:24:10,568
it, But Yeah. It'd be interesting to see

703
00:24:10,568 --> 00:24:11,607
if we go down that roots in the

704
00:24:11,846 --> 00:24:13,205
Uk. It doesn't look like it at the

705
00:24:13,205 --> 00:24:15,043
moment at least, but maybe Yeah. Who knows

706
00:24:15,043 --> 00:24:15,842
what the future holds.

707
00:24:16,641 --> 00:24:17,141
Of

708
00:24:17,933 --> 00:24:19,365
Okay. You've you got anything to sum up

709
00:24:19,365 --> 00:24:20,717
with then? Or do you wanna... No. No.

710
00:24:20,876 --> 00:24:22,944
I mean, I I think that, 1 thing

711
00:24:22,944 --> 00:24:24,670
that we're gonna know about

712
00:24:25,348 --> 00:24:27,502
our current set of politicians, or there any

713
00:24:27,502 --> 00:24:30,055
different any the others is that let's see

714
00:24:30,055 --> 00:24:31,730
whether they are people of their word.

715
00:24:32,383 --> 00:24:34,136
And they actually do what they say. Yeah.

716
00:24:34,295 --> 00:24:35,570
I've been seeing a lot of interviews with

717
00:24:35,570 --> 00:24:37,004
the fresh batch, A lot of them are...

718
00:24:37,402 --> 00:24:39,409
Yeah. I think there's about 300 brand new

719
00:24:39,648 --> 00:24:41,720
Mps or something like that. Yeah. Way more

720
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:43,336
than usual. So there's a lot of old

721
00:24:43,792 --> 00:24:45,785
experience gone actually, which is interesting, and then

722
00:24:45,785 --> 00:24:47,082
there's a lot of fresh faced

723
00:24:47,951 --> 00:24:50,020
folks that hopefully, will bring new ideas and

724
00:24:50,020 --> 00:24:50,657
energy. Mh.

725
00:24:51,214 --> 00:24:52,965
And it'll be interesting to see how they've

726
00:24:52,965 --> 00:24:55,288
built up against the system, which is you

727
00:24:55,288 --> 00:24:57,273
know, from experiences a local council that can

728
00:24:57,273 --> 00:24:59,417
be quite frustrating. Yep. Because you come up

729
00:24:59,417 --> 00:25:01,403
against these rules and these... I we can't

730
00:25:01,403 --> 00:25:03,150
do that yet. Oh, no. We not gonna

731
00:25:03,150 --> 00:25:05,152
take years to do that any night. What?

732
00:25:06,504 --> 00:25:08,095
Hopefully, they can break through some of that

733
00:25:08,095 --> 00:25:10,083
and, you, push things on. So I wish

734
00:25:10,083 --> 00:25:12,410
them well. Yeah. Those and I think that

735
00:25:12,410 --> 00:25:14,410
the other thing is maybe we need some

736
00:25:14,410 --> 00:25:15,789
listen to ourselves

737
00:25:16,490 --> 00:25:18,410
and be honest with ourselves. Yep.

738
00:25:19,463 --> 00:25:20,597
And my my

739
00:25:21,762 --> 00:25:23,585
results for the week is is going read

740
00:25:23,585 --> 00:25:26,439
19 84. This is Joel Joel well. Yep.

741
00:25:27,169 --> 00:25:27,890
Classic. Yeah.

742
00:25:28,849 --> 00:25:30,529
And I think that does tell us a

743
00:25:30,529 --> 00:25:33,569
lot about us now. Yep. Mh Mh. I'll

744
00:25:33,569 --> 00:25:35,329
over read up for a long time. So

745
00:25:35,409 --> 00:25:36,049

746
00:25:37,183 --> 00:25:38,061
