That's the ultimate cross-dressing, it seems to me.

I grew up in an era out on the streets protesting about US wars.

Now the US trying to stop the war in Europe.

And the people who would once have been demonstrating with me, alongside me, are the ones demanding that the war should continue.

So the Labour Party, and indeed all of European social democracy, and social democracy in the US in the form of the Democratic Party, have cross-dressed.

They believe that a woman can have a penis, that a man can have a cervix, that I am somehow a phobe or an ist.

If I say I don't want my daughters changing for the swimming baths alongside a man, a fully formed biological male, that makes me a phobe, an ist, to be denounced and blackguarded and blacklisted, shadow banned.

We are truly living in a nightmare.

in the Western world as a whole, I believe, but in Western Europe in particular, where all that is solid has melted into air and all that was sacred is now routinely profaned.

And I rage against it.

You know, I want nothing from anybody.

and nothing that matters to me can be taken away by anybody.

So I'm a free man in that sense, and I intend to use that freedom to speak my truth.

I think any attempt to stop me is doomed because there are many, many people ready to pick up my microphone should they ever be able to prise it away.

God bless you.

Well, you know, there's an old First World War truism.

We're here because we're here.

And ultimately, we'll be here to guard the graves of those that were here because they were here.

It's partly that they have dug themselves, I don't want to get Shakespearean, but they are steeped in blood so far that it is a genuine question whether it's bloodier to go on or to go o'er.

And they have spent so many hundreds of billions of euros, pounds, dollars of their people's money in a forlorn charge of the Light Brigade that it's fatal for them politically to admit that they were wrong.
