I'm not going to see my country, my home be denigrated in this way. I want to push back through the ballot box. And to me, that's the only viable, alternative, plausible way forward. It's not to say that I think these people are wrong to be highlighting these issues. But I think if you're serious about bringing about change, changing things, changing policy, changing government.

I think the ballot box is the way forward. I don't think Britain has the same culture as France, Italy, and other countries whereby street protest is embraced or supported. I think we have a very distinctive political culture in this country, which social scientists have talked about from the 50s onward. We have a civic culture.

We're very skeptical of anything that might look like it's aggressive, anything that might look like it's challenging the rule of law. And I think ultimately, it's about what approach do you think is really the most viable way to bring about change?

I mean... Let me just put it a different way. I think path dependency really matters in politics. I think where you start determines your eventual destination. So if you start...

with a movement that's very combative, provocative, that is associated with, you know, rightly or wrongly, it was associated with drinking and conflict and fighting with cops and whatever, it's just going to be very difficult for you to change the public perception, right? From where you start basically determines your eventual destination.

Now, what I'm interested in, I'm interested in movements that are winning 30, 40% of the national vote, as in, I want to get things done. I want to do what Trump's doing in the U.S., I want to come in and say, right, we're slashing the state. We're getting rid of DEI. We're ending mass uncontrolled immigration. We're going to have a serious strategy for integration, right?

We're going to push back on net zero. I'm interested in that. I'm not interested in a purity spiral over on the corner here as to, you know, who's been talking about this issue for the longest period of time. I respect people who are ahead of the curve on issues like that, but I'm ultimately interested in how do you actually save a country? What's the most viable way of doing that?
