Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to Tuesday's episode of Trending. Say what you want about Prime Minister Sakir Starmer. He's the only Prime Minister in my lifetime to have united the country. That's no mean feat. He's just united it against himself. Starmer faces crunch cabinet meeting as Home Secretary joins ministers pushing for resignation timetable. Looks like Zippy's toast. Folks, it's been a long time coming, but you know, anything can happen. Keir Starmer is gearing up to face his cabinet soon as he fights to stay on as Prime Minister. I mean, the wagons have been circling Starmer for a while. Let's have it right. I think a lot of people are probably of the opinion that he's the worst Prime Minister, certainly in recent times. I mean, I mean, Tony Blair's got to be up there, right? But there's still people out there that like Tony, that blows my mind. But there are. But when you think of Sakir Starmer as a dreadful Prime Minister, which I imagine most people probably do, even Labour voters would see him as that, it kind of depends how you look at it. So if you look at it as a citizen of the United Kingdom, if you look at it in the same way that I would, and I'm sure all of you at home would, and other people would, you know, how is the country changing for the better for me? It's not, it's getting worse. You've got less money in your pocket, less freedoms because the freedom of speech thing is just escalated even more. It's just got worse. So on that level, you go, well, he's the worst prime minister then. Yeah, but he's not working for you, and he's not working for me. We're not the ones that he's serving. So actually, as I've said a few times, he's having a weldie because his job is to destroy the country, and he's doing great. He is doing great. Um, Starmer is on the brink, his party um is in open revolt, and his own cabinet is split on whether he should go. There's no loyalty in politics. Of course there isn't. So you get a politician that says something yesterday because it served them to say it yesterday, and they supported someone yesterday because it served them to support them yesterday, whereas today, no, it doesn't really serve them very well. So they will change their rhetoric, they will change their view, and they will just flip and turn on people. That's what they do. You get a gaggle of narcissistic sociopaths in a room, sort of that's that's sort of going to happen, isn't it? So it shouldn't be a surprise. Um, and over the last couple of days, it's it's got more and more obvious that actually all those allies that he had have now turned on him. Now, I understand it's all theatre, it's all nonsense, it's all popcorn ingesting crap politics. I get it. The reason why I think it's significant to cover it, even though I can't say that, the reason I think it's significant to cover it is because what it will show if they get rid of Starmer or if he pulls another play, which I'll come to in a second, then what that means is one of two things. Either he's done his job, he served his purpose, he's done everything he was supposed to do, he's destroyed everything he was supposed to destroy, therefore, off you go, exit stage left, we'll bring in the next one who will then take it to the next level and destroy the next thing or whatever. That's one option. The other option is that he hasn't served his purpose just yet, but his level of popularity is so low that actually they think, well, actually, we we ain't gonna be able to get him to get the next few things on his little to-do list through because everything's a contract between the people and the establishment. We have to agree to, we have to allow everything. It's a numbers game. Look how many people there are compared to politicians and the elite class, the Epstein class. The the simple mathematics show where the power really is. So they need to get us to agree to it. So that's why that's where someone like Trump comes in to try and hoodwink. That's where other people come in to try and hoodwink. That's the whole point. If they didn't have to try and fool us into accepting stuff, they wouldn't bother. They just do it. So maybe that's part of this. That actually Starmer's popularity is even lower than they suspected it would be at this point. And actually, no, he's not gonna be able to get RST on the alphabet list in. So we're actually gonna we're gonna have to bring in someone earlier. That could be part of it. Um, Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood, she's the one that wants everyone to be watched by the state. She wants a panoptagon where the eyes of the state are on the people at all times. She's a nice person. Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood has uh joined other ministers calling for Starmer to set out a timetable to go. A week on Tuesday. At least 72 Labour MPs have now urged him to resign immediately or draw up a timetable. The reason is, because as I say, politicians are all narcissistic sociopaths, they have they've looked at the um recent uh local election results, the battering that they've got, and thought, well, I'm gonna lose my job at the next election then. Because they only care about themselves. I'm going to lose my job. So we need to get rid of this dude. But fundamentally, as I've said a bunch of times before, I think they want a reform government. I think that's what they want. Because I think the UK is is America in 2016 where they pulled the play with Trump, where people were sick and tired of politics. Doesn't matter if it's the Tories, doesn't matter if it's Labour, doesn't matter if it's Greens or Lib, they're all bastards, right? It's probably a bit early to say bastards, but I've said it now, so do you know what I mean? It's done. Um, they're all the same. So I'm done with politics. And we saw that in the in the amount of people voting in the elections. It's just dropping and dropping. People aren't bothering. Well, that mirrors completely what was going on in the United States around 2014, 2015, maybe slightly earlier, where people were done. George W. Bush, Barack Obama, they said change, they still bombed the Middle East, whatever, nothing changes. I've got less money in my pocket and less freedoms. So people stopped caring about voting. Doesn't matter who you vote for, government gets in. Uni Party, all that stuff was was common, um commonly being verbalised by by the population. So then here comes Trump. He's different. Is he? What the the billionaire that was bailed out by the Rothschild family. He's different, is he? Oh, he's different. Okay. So he comes, Epstein's best mate's different. All right. So he comes in, hoodwinks the masses in in that he's different. He's an outsider. And so people support that, less so now, but people supported that. And what it meant it, what it did is it got people back into politics, it got back people back voting again, got people back into the pantomime, and they allowed him, because he's an outsider of his drain in the swamp to go and do a bunch of stuff that they would never have allowed Obama, Biden, whoever. They looked the MAGA looked the other way on a bunch of stuff that they'd have been going, Oi, if it was the other side. But no, he's an outsider. So they're trying to pull the same thing here with reform. It's a new party, it's different. It's not, it's a load of ex-Tories, but okay, whatever. It's different. It's not different. But what they hope, I think, is that if they get reform in, that will placate the more, dare I say, free-thinking people, the people that revolted against the COVID nonsense, the people that have a problem with mass immigration and all that stuff, they want to hoodwink them in so you can get reform in, and reform will bring in everything that Labour would have brought in, everything because they're all the same team, your digital IDs, all that stuff, your cashless society, the lot, the 15-minute cities, but they know that Starmer won't get that through the door. People won't have it. They ate him. And the Tories are a waste of space. So they've got reform. And reform have come out and said they're against digital ID, haven't they? Yeah, they're against digital ID. And they don't like the COVID stuff and the they don't like the um 15 minute cities and the universal basic income and mass immigration. They don't like any of that. They vocalized that, haven't they? We'll vote for them. And watch them come in and do everything that Labour would have done, but with a different colour rosette on. And people will uh not all people, but some people will allow them to get away with it because it's our team. And it will be it'll be different. No, it's not digital ID, it's different. It's it's the reforms version. Yeah, same thing, mate. As Alan Partridge would say, they've rebadged it, you fool. Um late last night, number 10 replaced six ministerial aides, um, the lowest rung of government, who quit earlier in the evening. Pressure's been uh building on the Prime Minister after Labour's disastrous performance. It was a battering, to be fair, in last week's elections, but he's vowed to prove the doubters wrong. He says he won't walk away. We'll see what happens there. Um now, this is where it gets interesting, I think. I know it's theatre, don't come at me, I know it's theatre, I know it's nonsense, but unfortunately, this theatre affects our day-to-day lives, doesn't it? You know what I mean? That's that's the annoying part of it. Um but do they replace him? So they bring in someone else. They they, you know, we start to hear more about the Ukrainian rent boys, and Starmer is forced to step aside, so they bring in someone else within Labour to try and, you know, get those few more things uh through the door before reform or whatever. Or do they get Starmer to follow through with a threat? So I was I was reading some stuff last night that was suggesting that Starmer, because again, he's a narcissist, he quite likes being prime minister, he doesn't want to go. And so he is obviously well aware that the reason these um MPs who only care about themselves are revolting, they are revolting, are revolting is because they're frightened that they will lose their their role as an MP at the next election, they'll get battered. Now the next election is a few years away, but they are looking down the line, thinking if they're we're we're getting smashed in these local elections, I'm gonna lose my seat. I don't want that. Expenses. So that's why they want rid of Starmer. So Starmer, I was reading, can potentially or will potentially threaten to call a snap general election. That'll call their bluff. Because what that'll do is he's basically gonna say, support me, or I'll call a snap general election. Which it translated means support me or I will basically bring this ship down, I'll sink it, and I'll take you with me. So that would be an interesting thing to see what happens over the next. I was gonna say 24 hours to four this could be going on in the next couple of hours because this whole thing's um kicking off. But what that would do if he does do that, and they call the bluff, and he does call a snap general election, that brings reform in now, doesn't it? Let's have it right, and then we get Trump Mark II. Brilliant, Mega, make England great again. There's no originality. Um, like I said, do they replace him? And do they replace him with someone like Andy Burnham? Nice guy. Now, he's the name that's being touted massively as a successor to Sakir Starmer. He's made no secret about the fact that he he wants to be Prime Minister. He's got an ego the size of Big Ben, to be fair. And he's currently serving as the mayor of Manchester, doing a horrible job, obviously, because that's what they do. But it's said that three Labour MPs are willing to essentially fall on their sword and give up their seat to allow him to mount a leadership challenge against Sakir Starmer. Now, at the moment, there's 72 MPs. Once that gets to 81 MPs, he can evoke a leadership challenge. And he would potentially win it. So who's Andy Burnham? But he was an MP before and he served in um in Tony Blair's cabinet. He voted for and supported the Iraq War, which led to the death of over a million Iraqis. Nice guy. It's gone well then. He helped privatize the NHS or large swathes of the NHS when he was health secretary under Tony Blair. So again, nice guy. He connects into Peter Mandelson through various lobby groups and think tanks. Again, nice guy. Um he was a Labour friend of Israel, Kwelve Sapriz, and all campaign managers and stuff around him when he was doing his various pushes for leadership and stuff in the past, all connect into the Israel lobby. Nice guy. Um and he said, should he this was before when he was running to be leader of the Labour Party, should he become leader, his first trip abroad, his first foreign trip would be to Israel. It's a slither of land you can drive round in a day. But it's connected into everything, isn't it? And also with this Iran ceasefire hanging by a thread, or on life support, I think was the terminology used by Donald Trump last night, having someone like Andy Burnham, who is an Israel first and has previously voted and supported the toppling of Saddam Hussein and the war in Iraq and all the fake WMD nonsense, maybe he's gonna be brought in, and we'll see a little bit of an about turn in terms of Britain's involvement with Iran joining the war. That wouldn't surprise me either. So it's an interesting little wow. And I've I've in terms of Andy Burnham as well, like just finally, I've told you this story before, um, so forgive me if you've heard me rambling on about it, but he's like I said, the mayor of Manchester, whose whole stiek when he came in was sorting Manchester's homelessness problem. Have you been to Manchester? Um, they're not hotels on street corners, that's just where people live. And so having come in as mayor of Manchester with the whole, you know, I'm gonna sort the homelessness problem, he's doing that rather than not doing that. My dad had a uh a book release in Manchester, it was supposed to be at Manchester United Stadium that was uh pulled by Manchester United because they bottled it because um the the pro-Israel snowflakes cried about it, and that's what they do, and um and so on these um events, the money from these events was being donated to different charities. So there was a charity in London, we did an event in London, a charity in Edinburgh, and there was an event in Edinburgh and a charity in Manchester. Now, the charity in Manchester was a homelessness charity because, despite Andy Burnham, he's got a big homeless problem in Manchester. And so my brother had talked to this um charity, they were one amazing. Thank you so much for the donation, this would be great. Anyway, the charity then contacts my brother and says, Oh, we can't accept the donation. Sorry, seems odd. I think the homeless guy wants it, but alright. Didn't really go into any great detail, but that was that. So we went out onto the streets. My my niece and nephew, my sister's kids went out and they were just handing the cash out to homeless people on the street. And um, anyway, so sometime later, don't think it was that long later, a few months later, the same homeless guy, charity guy, contacts my brother again to say, sorry, basically, that they were advised by Andy Burnham to not take the money from us, to not be associated with us, and that he would see them alright. I understand you need the money for the homeless people, but don't take the money. They're bad guys. I vote for the Iraq War, I'm a good guy, but they're bad guys, and I'll see you all right. Well, guess what? You'll be surprised to know he didn't see them all right. He ghosted them. And so the charity guy contacted my brother, apologized, and said, Yeah, basically, we were told to not take the money because it would be bad for us, and we'd be sorted out by Andy Burnham, and then he ghosted us. He's gonna be a cool prime minister, isn't he? What a load of nonsense it all is.
SPEAKER_01Don't mention the reptiles, Dave. Even less is said about the Grey Pope, which some believe to be the true ruling power in the Vatican. Humans emitting a macadress. All of them had political signals. I've never seen it before. This is the ultimate suicide cult. What if the symbols around us every day aren't just ornamental? We lost a thousand years of history. What if their instruction?
SPEAKER_00That state of awareness is not manipulatable.
