Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?

1.533 - 18.409 Rupert Lowe

Adam, what's your point? The future looks bright. My handshake is better than anything I ever signed.

0

18.429 - 19.57 Patrick Bet-David

It's right here. You are a one-on-one?

0

19.71 - 26.196 Rupert Lowe

My son's right there. I don't think I've ever said this before.

0

28.038 - 30.24 Patrick Bet-David

Rupert Lowe, it's great to have you on the podcast.

0

30.997 - 33.26 Rupert Lowe

I'm honored to be on your show, Patrick.

33.54 - 35.683 Patrick Bet-David

The honor is truly mine.

Chapter 2: How did Keir Starmer's resignation impact UK politics?

35.743 - 53.125 Patrick Bet-David

You know, when I saw the disturbing report that you wrote that went viral all over X, I don't know how many views it got, hundreds of millions of views. And then I had to go through this report and read it and read the stories of Chloe and Sebastian and others and the solutions and the stats.

0

53.226 - 71.567 Patrick Bet-David

And then hear how many people on the market reacted to it negatively, calling it baloney, bogus, which we'll get into that as well. I love the fact that you put that together because not a lot of people want to risk doing that. So I applaud you for doing that. And so I definitely want to cover this, the inquiry that we have here.

0

71.647 - 96.822 Patrick Bet-David

But before doing so, today, if I'm not mistaken, as a member of the parliament yourself in Britain, today is the 10-year anniversary of the Brexit referendum that happened 10 years ago. And UK voted 51-9 to 48-1. And since then, you've had 10 different prime ministers, seven different prime ministers in 10 years. Keir Starmer just resigned a couple of days ago.

0

Chapter 3: What are the findings of the Rape Gang Inquiry report?

97.002 - 108.405 Patrick Bet-David

I think when you and I were speaking on Sunday, the next day he resigns. So why do you think, one, he resigned? And why has UK had seven different prime ministers the last 10 years?

0

109.752 - 127.423 Rupert Lowe

Well, as I think we discussed briefly when we spoke, which was an enjoyable call on Sunday evening, it's indicative of a sort of historical, what I call heavyweight country that is in decline.

0

127.994 - 148.669 Rupert Lowe

And I think where it's gone wrong is that Parliament, which basically is supposed to be populated by 650 MPs who represent the people, they are supposed to be omnipotent and they are supposed to effectively protect the interests of the British people and the British nation.

0

149.155 - 178.15 Rupert Lowe

But you have to lay the blame, I think, for what is happening at the door, arguably of Tony Blair largely and his changes to our constitution and his introduction of various acts and laws which undermined our constitution, which as you know, had served us extremely well and delivered probably the highest trust society on earth with the best functioning parliament judiciary

0

178.636 - 208.278 Rupert Lowe

civil service where you had a vocational civil service that was basically required to deliver, and it was in its DNA to deliver. Obviously, a lot of the stuff emanated from empire, from the fact that we as a small nation were administering a very large percentage of the globe. But I think what's happening in this, and you often see this throughout history, is great nations wax and wane.

208.318 - 238.76 Rupert Lowe

And I think we are slowly waning. And in answer to your question, I don't think we now have this functioning civil service. I think the Tony Blair's changes to our constitution, the introduction of the Human Rights Act, the introduction of a Supreme Court, which basically is now a quango and no longer reports to the Lord Chancellor, who basically was accountable for appointments in the past.

238.78 - 259.939 Rupert Lowe

Also the Equality Act, which I think has damaged the relationship between people on the ground by basically turning turning it into a sort of legal fest and enriching idle parasitic lawyers at the expense of the rest of the population. So I think Tony Blair has a lot to blame for, and I think he can see that himself.

261 - 279.737 Rupert Lowe

And recently, the old fox came out himself trying to almost distance himself from his own reforms. So in answer to your question, I do think to have seven prime ministers or seven CEOs of a corporation, whatever it is, that is not

Chapter 4: How has the public reacted to the Rape Gang Inquiry report?

279.717 - 308.155 Rupert Lowe

a sign of a healthy country or economy. And I like continuity in the businesses I run. I value continuity. I value loyalty. I value commitment to that company or that cause. And we certainly haven't got that. We've got the disintegration of the two party system, which has let us down. Boris let us down in 2019 when he won an 80 seat majority and failed to deliver the reforms that are needed

0

308.573 - 327.308 Rupert Lowe

And we've really gone from one disaster to another. And Parliament, as I say, has been undermined. So we need to get Parliament back. We need to, in my view, reverse devolution, which I thought was been a terrible plan, which I think was part of the attempt to break up

0

327.659 - 351.405 Rupert Lowe

the most proud sovereign nation in Europe by the EU, which again, as you probably know, the foundations of the EU is actually founded on a monopoly called the European Coal and Steel Community. So its genesis was a monopoly. And it was basically created by a bunch of largely Gramscian Marxists who I think realized they had to destroy the nation state

0

351.385 - 370.087 Rupert Lowe

if they were to create this European superpower that they've always intended to create. But obviously, in the vote in 2016, which you just alluded to, the British people threw a spanner in the works, and that has caused a lot of trouble.

0

371.128 - 382.328 Rupert Lowe

But suffice to say that despite the fact the British people are supposed to be the bosses, and they gave an instruction to the people who are serving them to deliver Brexit, It hasn't happened.

383.229 - 400.461 Rupert Lowe

And we haven't had the proper Brexit because Europe fears what would happen if Britain truly reformed itself, got rid of this welfare economy and actually started to create wealth and to follow some form of Austrian school economic model.

Chapter 5: What historical factors contributed to the current political climate in the UK?

400.441 - 427.088 Rupert Lowe

which deregulated and genuinely invested long-term, encouraged the private sector, not the state, all the things that are necessary to create wealth. But Europe is petrified of that, Patrick. Because Europe is a sclerotic, dying, monopolistic sort of block of countries who, as I say, are founded on a sort of socialist principle rather than a capitalist principle.

0

427.128 - 443.931 Patrick Bet-David

Let me ask you, how much of it is they're avoiding touching or addressing issues that the people actually want because they're trying to, you know, they're afraid of the minority few that are too loud? What are they afraid of? What are they afraid of doing?

0

445.582 - 470.998 Rupert Lowe

Well, as I say, I think it's been a plan to arguably stop a further war in Europe, which hasn't been successful because we've had further wars in Europe since the genesis of the UND. We have one now that's been going on for longer in Ukraine than the First and Second World War put together, if you take the incursion into the Donbass and Luhansk and Crimea in 2014.

0

470.978 - 492.45 Rupert Lowe

So look, I think they're totally misguided. I personally like the concept of competing nation states who have a proud history, who have an accountable parliament and accountable government. and who put the interests of their people at the top of the agenda, which I have to applaud the people leading the US now.

0

492.47 - 507.111 Rupert Lowe

I think you've been through some dark times and some of the malaise that we have, we've imported from you. And I think when you see what happened with USAID and you see what had to be done when Joe Biden left office,

507.361 - 537.858 Rupert Lowe

You can understand how the tentacles of what I call wokery and DEI and all the sort of cancerous sort of malign philosophies that have permeated both UN parts and have taken massive hold here in our civil service, in our government and in almost all of our big corporates. So you've seen the demise of the family business and you've seen the rise of faceless shareholders through pension funds.

538.799 - 557.663 Rupert Lowe

And very often, a bit like in the US, I think the big corporations, the management team, very often own a very small percentage of the business. So it's much less accountable than a than a business is owned by a family where people can go and talk to the people who own it and whose interests are entirely aligned with the workforce.

558.404 - 581.005 Rupert Lowe

So I look, I think many things have gone wrong and maybe again, we should talk about central banks and we can talk about quantitative easing and dishonest things like that, which I think have distorted the sort of Protestant ethic, which used to run deep through the US and the UK. But that's a bigger subject to talk about.

Chapter 6: What role did Tony Blair play in the UK's political decline?

581.065 - 612.192 Rupert Lowe

But in the short term, I lay the blame firmly at Tony Blair's door. And we've got to now, in my view, win an election before 29 and install a group of sensible people with experience who are going to instigate a plan to reverse a lot of this malign legislation and a lot of this damaging philosophy, which is, I think, part of the Anglo-Saxon world now.

0

612.728 - 634.521 Patrick Bet-David

So that's fair. I say we start off with this report, okay? And let's just start off there. So this report you release, the rape gang inquiry, it's all over the place. It got 50 million plus views when you released it yourself just on your Twitter account, not accounting all the other people that shared it. Many different content creators reacted to it. Nothing from BBC.

0

635.462 - 662.31 Patrick Bet-David

And it highlights the devastating 250,000 people kids that were violated in a most brutal, the more stories you read through this, it's just kind of very difficult to read it. You literally are in pain as you're going through this. So one, how long did it take to put this report together? And two, what has the reaction been from the public, specifically people in UK to this report?

0

663.32 - 682.037 Rupert Lowe

Well, let's go back to the start, Patrick. So the genesis of this report, it emanates originally from the fact that the government, the state, who has been, and particularly the Labour Party here, have been complicit in this because it is, as you can see, linked to

0

682.017 - 707.173 Rupert Lowe

the block Muslim vote, which effectively through the postal voting system here, which needs to be reformed, Labour were able to win large tracts of particularly the inner cities by attracting the Muslim vote. That Muslim vote is now migrating and it's going more to vote for Muslim independence. And it's following a similar path to Lebanon, which used to be a Christian country.

707.653 - 708.775 Rupert Lowe

It's now a Muslim country.

Chapter 7: How do grooming gangs operate in the UK?

710.256 - 724.073 Rupert Lowe

But look, the government refused to have a statutory inquiry. And by a statutory inquiry, I mean an inquiry where they can use the power of the law to force people to come to a statutory inquiry and they can force them to give testimony.

0

725.065 - 750.195 Rupert Lowe

but as this goes to the root of the entire establishment and as it's been going on for probably 30, possibly 40, possibly even 50 years, as you can see from our report on an increasing scale, because if you don't deal with evil, it flourishes. Uh, and that that's what the law is there for, to actually stop these evil happenings taking place. Now,

0

750.918 - 776.776 Rupert Lowe

We couldn't get the government to have this report. They tried to claim that the rape gangs were happening in small silos in places like Bradford and Oldham and Rochdale and Rotherham. But we know that not to be the case. And at the time, I was a reform MP. I was sitting alongside Nigel Farage, who promised that if they didn't have a statutory inquiry, reform would have their own inquiry.

0

777.117 - 794.361 Rupert Lowe

I was actually in the chamber. You can see a picture of me sitting next to him when he announced it. He then politically assassinated or tried to politically assassinate me. He hasn't achieved that and kicked me out of his party for whatever reason. You'll have to ask him the reasons for that. But it was I was well, I wasn't expecting it.

0

795.483 - 812.996 Rupert Lowe

And ostensibly, they claimed I had threatened people in meetings and I had bullied people in my office and I had I had early onset dementia and false witness statements were made. My firearms were taken away from me, my shotguns. I like to shoot in the UK.

Chapter 8: What solutions does Rupert Lowe propose for addressing these issues?

813.817 - 844.009 Rupert Lowe

And I'm a law-abiding citizen, so they booted me out of the party. And once we dealt with all the issues that were palpably false, I set up a movement called Restore Britain. And we, with my team, decided that if... Farage having promised it and taken all of the sort of applause and plaudits from the media, he then failed to deliver it. So we thought, well, we will deliver it.

0

844.43 - 867.214 Rupert Lowe

So this has taken about 15 months, probably. It's been done with a fantastic team, you know, led by Sammy Woodhouse, who's actually a victim herself and does have a child by her rapist. And she is an incredibly strong and very able woman.

0

868.456 - 892.456 Rupert Lowe

Marlon West, who's now standing for Restore Britain as the mayor of Manchester, now that Andy Burnham looks like he's going to be crowned as prime minister without having been through a general election. And none of us know what his policies are, but it looks like he's going to be installed as the next ghost busting Labour prime minister, which I suspect will end in tears. So we decided to do it.

0

892.556 - 918.699 Rupert Lowe

So we had to basically do all the research and we had to use Sami's experience and we had to have safeguarding experts because when you undertake something like this, you know, the psychosomatic effects of dragging up these evils from the past can have a profound mental effect on people. So we had to make sure we had all the safeguards there. We produce the witness bundles.

0

919.06 - 929.275 Patrick Bet-David

Would you mind going through, assume the audience has no idea what's in this report. Assume the audience has no idea what the $250,000 is.

930.296 - 934.482 Rupert Lowe

By the way, Patrick, we think $250,000 is a very conservative figure.

934.622 - 942.013 Patrick Bet-David

I saw that number. Maybe walk us through, for somebody that's not read the report, what's in the report? What are the findings?

943.225 - 966.162 Rupert Lowe

Well, because of Sammy Woodhouse's experience and because of the experience of places up north where you'd had largely Islamic settlement in places like Bradford, in Leeds, in Rotherham, in Rochdale, all across a lot, largely in a lot of the northern cities, but this is happening across Britain in almost everywhere.

966.142 - 987.971 Rupert Lowe

But we thought we'd look at not only the victims, but we'd also try and analyse the reasons why this happened and how it happened and how it wasn't dealt with by the authorities. So we knew from Sammy that this had happened to her, it had happened to many other people, and that was what took some time.
