It's quite significant.
Chris, can I just ask you about, I'm always fascinated by the Labour Party and its anti-Semitic views and particularly the Corbynistas.
Presumably that all goes back to the fact that Jewish people tend to be more successful in business.
They tend to control a lot of the wealth traditionally, throughout history actually.
Is it just resentment that
Yeah, indeed, indeed.
I mean, I have to say I've always had a really simplistic view on racism.
I really genuinely could never understand how anybody could look down on somebody else because of the colour of their skin, where they come from, whatever.
I mean, my own very simplistic approach to life is racism.
It is, I guess, going back to what you quoted me on about doing to others, you would have wanted others to do unto you.
I judge people by how they behave, how they treat me, how they behave generally.
That's how I would judge somebody.
But it's amazing.
And I hear it increasingly in this country as well.
A lot of what I would regard as sensible people pass these comments about, oh, we have way too many foreigners in the country.
Etc.
And I suppose one justification for that is the fact that what's happening in the housing market and that, you know, there is a view that foreigners have taken our houses, they're taking our jobs, whatever.
But I just do not understand racism, actually.
Full stop.
Chris, moving on to the interview that Tucker Carlson did with the New York Times, a long interview.
