It's completely ridiculous to ask Shabana Mahmood, will white people be treated equally under the law, right?
It's ridiculous.
And the fact that people, that that's become normal in politics and J.D.
Vance's tweets have become normal and that there is this incredible thing going on now.
If you point out what Lowe said or what
Farage said, the first thing you get back is, oh, well, you know, it's exactly the same as George Floyd.
George Floyd said he couldn't breathe.
And Henry Novak said he couldn't breathe.
So it's George Floyd, right?
George Floyd said he couldn't breathe when he was literally being murdered by a police officer.
It's a completely different case.
He was being murdered by a police officer.
He was saying to the police officer who was strangling him, I can't breathe.
That is a very, very important difference.
Again, people point out that
Keir Starmer took the knee, and that Keir Starmer said, I think at the time, that he felt shocked and angered by George Floyd's death.
But that is not the equivalent of Farage saying, I suggest the rest of us respond with pure cold rage.
There's all these false equivalences.
Okay, enough from me.
Very good.
