00:00:00REALISTIC ABOUT IT. YOU KNOW, IT'S. I THRASHED THE GUY OUT OF
00:00:04SIGHT WHEN I STOOD AGAINST HIM IN, IN 2019. IT'S HELPFUL TO
00:00:06HAVE AN OPPONENT WHO'S, WHO'S A
00:00:08LUNATIC. OKAY. UH, I'M JUST
00:00:11SAYING, YOU KNOW, STRATEGICALLY, JUST A PIECE OF ADVICE. IF YOU'RE GOING INTO POLITICS,
00:00:14PICK YOUR OPPONENTS CAREFULLY. AND LEFT WING LOONIES ARE VERY
00:00:17GOOD OPPONENTS. UM, BUT THE
00:00:22PROBLEM IS THAT LOTS OF YOUNG
00:00:24PEOPLE DON'T REMEMBER SOCIALISM. YOU'RE SO YOUNG.
00:00:28NOW, WHO WHO REMEMBERS THE COLD
00:00:31WAR? WHO, YOU KNOW, WHO REMEMBERS THE SOVIET UNION? OH, RIGHT. DO YOU REMEMBER THE
00:00:35SOVIET UNION? YOU DON'T. IT'S
00:00:40UNBELIEVABLE. RIGHT? HERE WE ARE WITH THESE BRILLIANT YOUNG THRUSTERS. AND THEY DON'T
00:00:43REMEMBER THE SOVIET UNION. UH,
00:00:45BUT. SO WE RELY ON YOU AND YOUR POWERS OF IMAGINATION AND LOGIC
00:00:49AND REASON TO PROTECT YOUR GENERATION AND FUTURE
00:00:53GENERATIONS FROM THE SAME APPALLING MISTAKES. AND SO I DO
00:00:57WORRY ABOUT IT. I DO, I DO THINK THERE'S, I DO THINK A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE BEING MISLED AND
00:01:01GOING MORE AND MORE LEFT WING.
00:01:03AND, YOU KNOW, YOU'VE GOT TO.
00:01:07AND THAT'S WHY THIS ORGANIZATION IS SO VITAL. YOU'VE GOT TO BE VIGILANT. YOU'VE GOT TO BE
00:01:10STRONG. COMMUNISM LEADS TO DISASTER. SOCIALISM LEADS TO
00:01:14DISASTER. THERE'S NEVER BEEN A
00:01:15LABOR GOVERNMENT IN THE UK THAT
00:01:19HAS LEFT OFFICE WITH UNEMPLOYMENT LOWER THAN IT WHEN IT CAME IN. IT ALWAYS GOES UP
00:01:21AND THEY ALWAYS BANKRUPT THE COUNTRY. >> WE ARE GOING TO LEAVE THIS AT
