    If this doesn't derail this Labour party
  • 00:00:02
    and put enormous pressure on Kia Starama
  • 00:00:04
    to do something about it, I don't know
  • 00:00:06
    what will. What follows is quite
  • 00:00:09
    possibly the most disgusting exchange I
  • 00:00:13
    have ever heard from a member of
  • 00:00:15
    parliament. And not just a member of
  • 00:00:17
    parliament, but from the leader of the
  • 00:00:19
    House of Commons, Lucy Pal. Now, I will
  • 00:00:23
    have to jump around a little bit for the
  • 00:00:25
    first few seconds of this video because
  • 00:00:27
    YouTube algorithm doesn't like certain
  • 00:00:29
    phrases within the first few seconds or
  • 00:00:31
    so. So, I will jump around to say I do
  • 00:00:34
    like publishing to the YouTube platform,
  • 00:00:36
    but I do respect that within the first
  • 00:00:38
    30 seconds or so, it doesn't like
  • 00:00:39
    certain phrases being used. That said,
  • 00:00:42
    we should be over 30 seconds or so by
  • 00:00:44
    now. So, this exchange was uh flagged up
  • 00:00:47
    to me when Rupert Low and uh Robert
  • 00:00:51
    Generick commented on this and it was a
  • 00:00:55
    clip from the any questions
  • 00:00:59
    segment and I will play it to you.
  • 00:01:02
    There's there's no other way to get this
  • 00:01:04
    across to you than to play it to you and
  • 00:01:07
    then I'll show you her response on it
  • 00:01:09
    and you can let me know what you think
  • 00:01:10
    in the comments below. I've already told
  • 00:01:13
    you what I think about it.
  • 00:01:14
    Listen to this.
  • 00:01:18
    I I I don't know whe you saw the
  • 00:01:20
    documentary on Channel 4 about rape
  • 00:01:22
    gangs over We want to We want to blow
  • 00:01:24
    that little trumpet now, do we? Yeah.
  • 00:01:26
    There there is a real issue. Let's get
  • 00:01:28
    that dog whistle out, shall we? Where
  • 00:01:32
    can you believe that? Now, if you're not
  • 00:01:36
    familiar with the term, uh, forgive me
  • 00:01:38
    with great respect. If you're not
  • 00:01:39
    familiar with the term dog whistle is
  • 00:01:42
    something that they say to endear
  • 00:01:45
    themselves to the electorate which is
  • 00:01:47
    not likely to garner a lot of opposition
  • 00:01:49
    from uh the opposing parties but it's
  • 00:01:52
    likely to garner some support from their
  • 00:01:54
    their voters and their electorate. So,
  • 00:01:57
    just to
  • 00:01:59
    clarify, she is saying that bringing up
  • 00:02:02
    this
  • 00:02:03
    issue that you've heard them talk about
  • 00:02:05
    here is a dog whistle. Listen to that
  • 00:02:09
    again. I I I couldn't quite believe what
  • 00:02:12
    I heard when I first heard it. I had to
  • 00:02:14
    play it again. I'm playing it for you
  • 00:02:15
    now again so you can hear it again. Then
  • 00:02:17
    I had to check the comments and then I
  • 00:02:19
    had to check whether she'd responded to
  • 00:02:20
    it, addressed it because she got
  • 00:02:22
    absolutely slated in the comments
  • 00:02:25
    underneath this. So let's listen to it
  • 00:02:28
    again. So there's no ambiguity, crystal
  • 00:02:30
    clear, word for word what she said.
  • 00:02:32
    Listen to this.
  • 00:02:35
    I I I don't know whe you saw the
  • 00:02:37
    documentary on Channel 4 about rape
  • 00:02:40
    gangs over. Oh, we want to we want to
  • 00:02:41
    blow that little trumpet now, do we?
  • 00:02:43
    Yeah. There there is a real issue. Let's
  • 00:02:46
    get that dog whistle out, shall we?
  • 00:02:48
    Where count? Look. Now, she did respond
  • 00:02:51
    to that. Her post is here and she says
  • 00:02:55
    as follows. Let me zoom in a little bit
  • 00:02:57
    so you can read a little bit more
  • 00:02:58
    clearly. You can see exactly what she
  • 00:03:00
    said and let me know what you think
  • 00:03:02
    about it in the comments below. She
  • 00:03:03
    said, "In the heat of a discussion on
  • 00:03:05
    any questions, I would like to clarify
  • 00:03:08
    that I regard the issues of
  • 00:03:11
    exploitation and grooming with the
  • 00:03:13
    utmost seriousness.
  • 00:03:16
    I'm sorry if this was unclear. I was
  • 00:03:19
    challenging the political point scoring
  • 00:03:20
    around it, not the issue itself. She
  • 00:03:22
    says, "As a constituency MP, I've dealt
  • 00:03:25
    with horrendous cases. This government's
  • 00:03:26
    acting to get to the truth, blahy blah."
  • 00:03:29
    Now, quite frankly, to even say that she
  • 00:03:33
    was challenging it as political point
  • 00:03:35
    scoring is in and of itself political
  • 00:03:38
    point scoring. It is quite possibly the
  • 00:03:40
    most disgusting, disgraceful, and
  • 00:03:43
    disrespectful comments I have ever heard
  • 00:03:46
    from an MP ever. And I've we've
  • 00:03:49
    obviously heard a lot of things from a
  • 00:03:50
    lot of people. This I I I really I am
  • 00:03:54
    stuck for words, which is unusual for
  • 00:03:55
    me. I'm absolutely stuck for words. But
  • 00:03:58
    let me know what you think below. Now,
  • 00:04:00
    she obviously got absolutely slated in
  • 00:04:04
    the comment thread on X here and in the
  • 00:04:06
    response to her own, which I'll come
  • 00:04:08
    back to in a minute. Uh, really
  • 00:04:11
    exceptionally poor from Pal. This she
  • 00:04:14
    should absolutely resign. This is a
  • 00:04:16
    disgraceful position for her to hold and
  • 00:04:18
    so disrespectful to the thousands of
  • 00:04:20
    victims of these grooming gangs. Shame
  • 00:04:22
    on her. Lucy, you stand at the helm of
  • 00:04:24
    Britain's House of Commons. Yet you spit
  • 00:04:27
    on the cries of Britain's daughters,
  • 00:04:29
    dismissing their torment as dog
  • 00:04:31
    whistles, while predators prowl
  • 00:04:34
    unchecked. You are not a leader. You are
  • 00:04:36
    the polished mouthpiece of cowardice,
  • 00:04:39
    shielding yourself behind party lines
  • 00:04:41
    while British girls are sacrificed on
  • 00:04:42
    the altar of political correctness. You
  • 00:04:44
    owe this nation more than an apology.
  • 00:04:46
    You owe it your surrender, your
  • 00:04:47
    resignation, and your silence. Britain
  • 00:04:50
    does not need caretakers who cower. It
  • 00:04:52
    needs lions who protect their pride.
  • 00:04:54
    step down or be swept aside. The age of
  • 00:04:56
    the meek is over. Uh absolutely torn to
  • 00:05:00
    pieces in this comment thread here. You
  • 00:05:03
    can find it and go and read some more
  • 00:05:05
    yourself. But equally in the comments
  • 00:05:07
    responding to her own post here, Robert
  • 00:05:10
    Low at top of the thread here, when you
  • 00:05:12
    told people what you really thought,
  • 00:05:14
    they listened. Yes, it was absolutely
  • 00:05:17
    crystal clear what she thought there. In
  • 00:05:20
    my opinion, you understand from
  • 00:05:22
    listening to it, she treated that as
  • 00:05:24
    though it was just political point
  • 00:05:26
    scoring. I mean, she admitted as much
  • 00:05:27
    here. She said, "I was challenging the
  • 00:05:28
    political point scoring." She's still at
  • 00:05:30
    it. She is still saying that it was
  • 00:05:32
    political point scoring. She is still
  • 00:05:35
    saying in her supposed apology
  • 00:05:37
    clarification post here, she is still
  • 00:05:40
    saying that it was political point
  • 00:05:42
    scoring. She said word for word I was
  • 00:05:45
    challenging the political point scoring
  • 00:05:47
    around it, not the issue itself, but it
  • 00:05:50
    wasn't I mean I you can't hear the full
  • 00:05:52
    thing in the little clip that I've just
  • 00:05:53
    played you, but it was a discussion.
  • 00:05:56
    They were there to discuss, ask
  • 00:05:58
    questions, and that was her response.
  • 00:06:01
    Absolutely sarcastic, disrespectful, and
  • 00:06:03
    downright disgusting. And that wasn't
  • 00:06:06
    the only comment either. Dog whistle is
  • 00:06:09
    the word you used for someone raising
  • 00:06:10
    enormously significant and important
  • 00:06:12
    issue that you then directly try to
  • 00:06:15
    trivialize and caricature the person and
  • 00:06:18
    the point raised. The public sees this
  • 00:06:20
    contempt for what it is. Those gangs and
  • 00:06:22
    those complicit, not dog whistle. Basil
  • 00:06:26
    the great known for some controversial
  • 00:06:27
    posts but unclear. Listen to your own
  • 00:06:30
    words. I hope you don't resign. I hope
  • 00:06:33
    karma is forced to sack you. Appalling
  • 00:06:35
    beyond belief. And that raises a very
  • 00:06:37
    interesting point here. This is
  • 00:06:40
    absolutely the sort of thing that an MP
  • 00:06:43
    should be dismissed from the party for.
  • 00:06:46
    Is absolutely something that they should
  • 00:06:48
    be fired for. And again, a comment
  • 00:06:50
    pulling on this clarification. I'm sorry
  • 00:06:53
    if this was unclear is fundamentally
  • 00:06:54
    different to I'm sorry for what I said.
  • 00:06:57
    You're pinning the blame on people
  • 00:06:58
    misunderstanding you when your tone and
  • 00:07:00
    the content of what you said was quite
  • 00:07:02
    clear. Someone else. We all heard what
  • 00:07:04
    you said and it was very clear what you
  • 00:07:05
    think. Resign someone else. You must
  • 00:07:07
    think we are deaf or stupid or you're
  • 00:07:10
    unaware that radio is recorded. We heard
  • 00:07:12
    you loud and clear, including the
  • 00:07:13
    context. Your sneering dismissiveness
  • 00:07:16
    belittling the issue was a shameful
  • 00:07:18
    disgrace. It typifies Labour's attitude
  • 00:07:20
    to these gangs down the decades. Resign
  • 00:07:24
    someone else. You were crystal clear.
  • 00:07:26
    Your instinctive reaction was
  • 00:07:28
    dismissive, filled with contempt. I
  • 00:07:30
    suspect you were being more honest with
  • 00:07:32
    your words in that moment than you are
  • 00:07:34
    now in this post. And even as I sit here
  • 00:07:35
    now, you know, I was going to record
  • 00:07:37
    this now and send it out tomorrow
  • 00:07:38
    morning. Um, I'm changing my mind as we
  • 00:07:41
    speak. I think I might just p publish
  • 00:07:42
    this straight away, but even as I sit
  • 00:07:44
    here, I now see a letter from Rert Low.
  • 00:07:46
    Dear leader of the House, I'm writing to
  • 00:07:48
    express my deep concern at your recent
  • 00:07:50
    remarks during a media appearance in
  • 00:07:52
    which you responded to a question about
  • 00:07:53
    the rape gang scandal with the phrase,
  • 00:07:56
    "You want to blow that little trumpet
  • 00:07:58
    and let's get that dog whistle out."
  • 00:08:00
    Your comments are deeply, deeply
  • 00:08:01
    offensive. They diminish and mock the
  • 00:08:03
    genuine and justified outrage felt by
  • 00:08:06
    millions of British people. Your words
  • 00:08:08
    trivialize one of the most shameful
  • 00:08:10
    festering scandals in British history.
  • 00:08:12
    The industrial and torture of young
  • 00:08:15
    workingclass white girls by
  • 00:08:17
    predominantly Pakistani men in towns and
  • 00:08:19
    cities across the country. This was not
  • 00:08:21
    a conspiracy theory. It was a documented
  • 00:08:23
    systemic failure of the state to protect
  • 00:08:25
    vulnerable white girls. It continues
  • 00:08:27
    today. To reduce this issue to a dog
  • 00:08:29
    whistle is abhorrent and insulting. It
  • 00:08:32
    is not a trumpet to be blown. It is a
  • 00:08:34
    national disgrace that demands
  • 00:08:36
    accountability, not such pathetic
  • 00:08:38
    deflection. I urge you to do the right
  • 00:08:40
    thing. Issue an urgent public apology
  • 00:08:42
    for your remarks. Dismissing this
  • 00:08:44
    tragedy with such flippant language is
  • 00:08:46
    reprehensible. Now, as I said at the
  • 00:08:47
    outset of this video, if this doesn't
  • 00:08:49
    result in her resignation or Kia Starmer
  • 00:08:52
    sacking her for those comments, this
  • 00:08:54
    could absolutely be the thing that
  • 00:08:56
    derails this Labor party. As I say, let
  • 00:08:59
    me know what you think in the comments
  • 00:09:00
    below. Apologies for the late evening
  • 00:09:02
    video, but I had to put this out. Let me
  • 00:09:04
    know what you think. Please do subscribe
  • 00:09:06
    to my channel here for brutally honest.
  • 00:09:07
    I told you I would be brutally honest
  • 00:09:09
    about what I think. Do subscribe for
  • 00:09:11
    that. And thank you for watching.
