National decline occurs when institutions systematically fail to serve public interests, characterized by bureaucratic bloat, media consolidation, welfare dependency, and the erosion of civic responsibility, where government bodies grow larger and less accountable while the wealth-creating private sector bears increasing burdens to sustain unsustainable public spending.

WHO DESTROYED BRITAIN? Betrayed, Buggered & Bled Dry!Ajouté :
Godfrey Bloom meanwhile is here with Godfrey. Very good morning to you, sir.
Good morning, Mike. Very nice to see you.
>> Sorry to keep you waiting. I watched with some interest. We played a little bit of it actually in the last 15 minutes or so. Your your your last I'm going to say rant. It doesn't sound doesn't quite do it justice cuz it's far more measured than that. But but your speech about what it is that we tell our children and grandchildren about why we lost the United Kingdom. It's a fascinating question to ask and it's a it's an interesting answer as well.
Uh yes.
It is going to be difficult to explain.
Um how is it that all these things are happening and and we sort of stare like rabbits in the headlights, don't we?
Yeah.
>> Um So, the first question they will ask is how is it that we could stop Philip of Spain? How could we stop the Kaiser? How could we stop Hitler? How could we stop Napoleon from landing on our shores? And these fellows come in a thousand a week in little rubber boats. Uh and we put them in and we put them in hotels and give them preferential health care so on and so forth.
Now, quite obviously, this is something Mike I know that I've mentioned before to you. The thing that really is extraordinary is this is obviously quite deliberate. This business about all the gangs and we've got to smash the gangs and all is absolutely nonsense.
>> Right. We are encouraging these people to come in on in massive numbers by giving them all these freebie weeble wobbles and the rest of the world looks on in horror and says, "Why Why would you do this?"
>> Yeah. And so it goes on and the complete waste of taxpayer's money on all sorts of things just as you've been talking about King Charles going to um going to America. Trump, as you know, got rid of US aid, which was a hugely expensive and fraudulent organization and wasteful. And he actually closed it down and all sorts of people were on the take on that.
>> Yeah. On both sides of the pond. I think I'm right in saying that Rory Stewart's wife was doing pretty nicely.
>> I was about to mention poor old Rory Stewart's wife had to go and get real job because she was working with some kind of Afghan charity or other which was being funded by American taxpayers.
How dreadful. And of course, we also know that Gordon Brown had his tad in the till as well. Uh Uh and so this thing goes absolutely deep and he cut he stopped it. Now, the Foreign Office is actually paying for these some of these organizations in some in some states um which have closed down. They're actually subsidizing it because there are so many people on the inside on the take that they don't want to stop it. And how many other Mrs. Rory Stewarts are there, one wonders. Um This disregard, Mike, for public money which I think probably started to turn in the 1950s. I'm an old geezer now, but I do remember as a young man in the school debating society. I wasn't a geek incidentally. I was in the school rugby team as well, so don't put me down for it.
Um so, all this kind of thing. But public money was considered to be, you know, important how we spent it and especially at local government level because things like council My father was quite a senior counselor in London in the interest of the Conservative Party, but they weren't paid. They weren't paid anything. They didn't get any It was pro bono publico, as it were. And they were citizens in the main who were good citizens trying to contribute on both sides on both sides, Labour and Conservative. Only two sides in those days.
This has been lost.
And you can't seem to have any form of inquiry into it.
Everything the civil service does is is seems to me to be either corrupt or negligent.
And we find out that our judiciary, the CPS, all these things were at university members of the Fabian Society and some are which of course is a closet socialist hopelessly unfit for public office. I mean, that should be an immediate immediate trigger to say no, you cannot hold public office if you are member of a closet political movement behind the scenes which Fabianism is.
>> Yeah. Nobody seems to be getting a grip of it. This is what I said in my my clip is what people are going to say in generations to come, "How did this happen?" And I'd imagine if they'd had if they'd had social media in in the year 600 AD, people people Romans in Constantinople as it then was would be saying, "How the bloody hell did we lose the empire?"
>> Yeah. Exactly right because there seems to be no limit now on the amount of money that government bodies, whether they be local or national, can get their hands on. I mean, the amount of money that runs through Sadiq Khan's office, for example, which enables him to not only have something like, you know, 65 different members of his own staff doing all sorts of jobs that nobody's ever heard of and that they don't seem in any way accountable for. You know, the night czar whose job seemingly seemed to be going around being a DJ at various events for which she was paid a handsome sum of something like 149,000 pounds a year. You know, he's got this net zero czar who travels around the world going to, you know, climate conferences who's paid about 250,000 a year. Nobody knows what this guy does.
And nobody and one of the things I would say which has been a kind of contributing factor to how this all happened is the supplicants of the media who have seemingly ceased to be in any way curious about anything.
You know, they they care about a story for about 24 hours and they move on. You know, only now are we being told that the police are about to go to Downing Street to ask a few questions about whether anybody knows what happened to Boris Johnson's phone. You know, months later than they should have been. And I've been banging on about this for ages, but nobody else seems to care. And you think, "Well, what's the point of of all of these journalists hanging around asking no questions whatsoever?" You know, Robert Peston finally gets to interview the Prime Minister over in the Middle East and he asks him, you know, who his favorite leader is on WhatsApp and what they talk about when they have their little chats. And it turns out he's the Prime Minister of Finland. All information which is of no use to us whatsoever. Sorry, I've had a rant of my own now.
You're you're absolutely right. And of course, the trouble is these people in the main are very highly paid by the government either directly or indirectly.
These people are highly paid and he who pays the piper, of course, calls the tune and it was ever thus.
Uh and you look at your political correspondence and on mainstream media. Look at Laura Kuenssberg. Bloody useless. Can you remember the last time Laura Kuenssberg ever asked a relevant bloody question?
[clears throat] Well, she wouldn't, would she? She's on 300 grand a year and the bits and pieces and the index linked pensions. She's not going to rock any boats and I'll give you another name as well which should be really bubbled up by by mainstream media. Andrew Bailey.
Yeah. The governor of the Bank of England is a Fabian. Yeah. But he's also useless. He's also the man who said that he couldn't Yeah, but he also said he couldn't control the inflation rate. It's literally his job. That's your job, mate.
It really is quite extraordinary and of course, as you Nobody knows better than you, Mike. Nobody knows better than you.
The complete and total failure of legacy media. Yeah. And I include what used to be what would be regarded years ago as definitive newspapers. You know, the the Daily Telegraph would be the prime example. Now, it just prints and and supports CIA press releases. It doesn't delve down into anything.
In the days of going back to which is my subject really, which is military strategy in which I'm trained.
These people don't seem to Do you remember John Keegan and and Claire Hollingworth? Do that. These people were international experts. So, if you wanted to know what was going on in the Ukraine or you wanted to know what was going on in the Middle East, they could tell you in some detail of the military situation. People like on other channels, we've got Alistair Crooke and people like that. Retired diplomats, a very high standard of people. Yeah. We don't have people like that now. We don't have that.
And there's no diplomacy, there's no expertise.
And so consequently, 80% of the population 80% of the electorate are probably doing odd jobs elsewhere, you know, doing the ironing or you know, polishing the car, listening to the radio, listening to the BBC.
A legacy media who are totally and utterly misinformed. And you will hear you will hear all the time, Mike, people who are spinning the line. You know, they're perfectly good people in the pub who will come out with sentences which straight out of the CIA or MI6 or Mossad. Or the BBC, frankly, because it's all the same stuff, isn't it? I mean, you said something very pertinent in your in your monologue [snorts] earlier which we played as I say about Ukraine. You know, it's not very fashionable to have a go at Ukraine. You know, everybody knows there's a reason why people are regarded in Ukraine as quite corrupt. It's because they are, right?
The fact that we continue to give them billions and billions of pounds that we don't have while neglecting our own defenses which we also don't have is baffling. And you point out and I you don't even have to go to Monaco. One of the things Godfrey that I'm just reminding other people that you say is that you go to Monaco, there's Lamborghini after Ferrari after Rolls-Royce after you know, G Class Mercedes all driving around with Ukrainian plates on. You don't have to go to anywhere other than London to see that. Every time I go over to Marylebone and around the back of Selfridges there where I go on a fairly regular basis, there are G Class Mercedes, there are big Ferraris, big Lamborghinis, 4 by 4s with Ukrainian plates. And they're all brand new cars. And you think, "Where do they get the money from? And who are these people?" They're buying up London is what they're doing.
It really is quite extraordinary that nobody asks the questions, but of course, we know, I think I haven't drilled right down on it because I don't have a sort of research staff on on some of these matters that I have elsewhere.
But we certainly know, do we not, that nobody really is drilling down on this kind of thing to find out exactly where it all starts. And we know, do we not, that I think I'm right in saying that only six or seven major international organizations own nearly all legacy media in some form.
Yes, I think that's about right. And the problem is is that that is a failing sort of structure as well because what's happening is that in America for example, you know, the leading lights of the media are now independent. You know, the main broadcasting networks are all dying. Nobody watches them anymore.
Cable TV had already kind of put paid to most of the the big CBS, ABC, NBC kind of evening news programs and all of that is gone.
And it hasn't happened here yet, but I think it will eventually. You know, because again the BBC license fee is being talked about all the time now. I don't think it's going to last. You know, nobody really watches mainstream TV for for the time that they would like you to watch it. And so I think things are changing and I maybe we are the great white hope if you like since we're not allowed to say that anywhere else you can say it here of of you know, the the future of the media.
Yes, it is it is it is sad and and of course there aren't many advantages being an old geezer like me, but one of the small advantages is that I can remember how it was. And my my PA was much younger than me when I was in when I was in the city and when I was in Parliament at European Parliament would say to me, ah, she said, "God, is I you not looking at this perhaps through rose-tinted spectacles?" Yeah. And I would say, "Well, that's the sort of thing that youngsters often say to oldies and and I understand why they say that, but I can give you facts. Uh you know, in the 1950s old ladies went dashed out for their pensions. Yeah. Uh you know, you a woman could walk the streets in the main in the main in perfect safety coming home from you know, a pub or a club. They can't do that now in the big cities. Um so no, it it it it's different and it's much much worse and it's getting even worse. Yeah. So I'm not looking at it through the past through rose-colored spectacles cuz I remember how it was.
And if you see the clips Mike, I think there's a clip there's somebody running something on the just showing the pictures of how it was in the 1950s or 60s. You know, the seaside Yeah. seaside and I think I said this last time rape up 800% in Bournemouth. Yeah. I mean you I can remember when Bournemouth you you'd just snigger a little bit if people went to Bournemouth for their holidays cuz it was so safe and so staid and so boring, but rather nice with it.
>> It was.
When people families drove a a moggy a moggy woody a Morris 1000 woody estate thing with a family and the dog in it and all the rest of it. It was better. IT WAS MUCH MUCH BETTER and I wish to God I could go back to it.
Exactly right. And all of this nonsense that you get from the lefties now that oh, you're talking absolute rubbish. You know, London's never been greater. It's never been so running in the marathon yesterday. You know, they pretty much have to shut down the entire city in order to run an event which is a very middle-class largely white event apart from the magnificent runners from Kenya at the front of it winning it all, you know.
But at the end of the day, you know, people are mostly running through London to get away from something. You know, either you know, a marauding gang of youths who want to beat them up and steal their watch or um they're robbers running away from shops having shoplifted loads of stuff that nobody stopped them doing. That's the only people you see running most of the time in London, you know, not the sort of you know, the closed-off marathon types. But you're absolutely right. Bournemouth was a sort of haven for old people, wasn't it? It was like you wouldn't go there. I remember going my one of my first ever trips as a youngster when I was 17, I took my girlfriend uh to [snorts] a bed and breakfast in Torquay. And everybody was laughing at me going, "What, Torquay?" And I went on the bus. It was a National Coach cuz I didn't have money to get on a train, you know. Um and it was a magnificent sort of you know, um relatively um interesting weekend shall we say for a 17-year-old. Um you couldn't really do that now because the prices are prodigious. You can't go anywhere unless you've got bucket loads of money. You certainly could I mean you might be able to get a coach now, but you couldn't get a train partly because either wouldn't be running or because it would cost you about 100 quid to get there and back. You know, and we the latest thing that's really annoyed me is this ability that people on Universal Credit have got to go to places like the Tower of London for a pound a head which apparently is okay if you're not working, but if you're working, it's 100 quid to take a family of four. It's outrageous.
It's extraordinary, isn't it? It's extraordinary that the one people that the one people that are persecuted by the government and it's not just this government. The people that get up in the morning and go to work. Your artisan butcher, your chippy, your sparky and so on and so forth.
Uh and your whole social fabric. I'm talking to you today Mike from Cockermouth uh because I'm climbing the fells uh this week at the northern fells and going on to the southern lakes for the second week finally at the fell. Now Cockermouth is fantastic because it's it is actually like stepping back in time.
Mhm.
>> [clears throat] >> There are no illegals in hotels or anything like that. It's absolutely charming. Everybody says if you walk your dog down the river which I do every morning before we go off everybody says good morning with a smile. It's really really nice.
Very little litter. Very little litter.
And it's just a very pleasant place to be and I tell you something else when I've been speaking to people as I walk down the riverbank, I'm hearing lots of London accents. Really? I'm hearing lots of I stop and talk and I say to them, "Now then, you're all from further south." And they're all saying, "Yeah, they're escaping to Cockermouth because it's like and I tell you again because it is simply like being back in 1958-59."
Mhm. Yes.
>> Very little crime. Very little litter and just very very nice place to be.
Yes, but of course the cognoscenti of this country will say that that's because you're a racist because you just don't like diversity. You just don't like having people in your home city like whether it's London or whether it's Birmingham or whether it's Manchester.
You don't like it because you don't see people like you anymore. Well, it's partly true. Yes, it is because you know, we all grew up I grew up in London in the 60s and 70s. It was already full of people from different countries, but it wasn't like it is now. You know, my parents used to take us out every Friday to a different nationality restaurant by way of a sort of education of cuisine of the world.
We weren't rich, but you could go to a Polish restaurant one week, an Indian restaurant the next week, an Italian restaurant the next week. All of that was great, you know.
But it's not like that now. London has become pretty unlivable in I would say partly because there's too many people.
There's actually bizarrely I don't know if you know this, but a figure came out the other day there's more unemployed people now in London than there are in any other parts of the country because so many people have come from abroad and are now work at living on benefits. We hear from Greggs that for the first time in parts of London Greggs are now putting all of their food behind a counter because so much of it keeps getting stolen.
Yes, but these people but if you go back to in the to the 50s and 60s, a lot of the people came here with a high regard for being here, wanting to be here, wanting to integrate. Who could say now you know, it's nothing to do with the color of your skin. Who could say that most of the Sikh population living in this country aren't welcome. They nearly all work. They're hard workers and they're nice people. And I had a regimental association with a Sikh association. I've been to Amritsar at their invitation. They're very nice people indeed. And I they must be welcome. And of course the West Indians that came in the 50s and 60s were God-fearing people, Baptists and they came to work driving the buses and bits and pieces.
>> Right. Welcome surely welcome. I don't have a problem. But I explained when I was speaking to the Oxford Union 10 years ago, I said, "Welcome, but not masses of people who don't speak English, don't want to integrate and don't like us and have a completely different attitude to women." Right. I think it's disgraceful in this country that women can't go home from the pub in a big city without fear of some of these monsters who came here illegally and not and withstanding a significant number who came here legally to do what? To do what? What are they contributing? And if you and I go out with the boys if we're allowed out by the misses every now and again for a night on the toot uh it's absolute fun. If you don't put your 20 or 30 quid into the kitty, you don't get a beer Mike. Yeah. So these people have got to learn how it is. And talk about litter. Some of these people who come from all sorts of weird places have no concept of litter. And if you look in the Peak District and see some of the big cities around there at the Peak District like Manchester and stuff uh they go to a beauty spot. And this is something you mention any local newspaper if you look them up now will say they go and they leave all their kit they just get up and walk away from a beauty spot. Uh you know, in Dunstable >> that because they use parts of the beauty spot as a toilet as well which I'm afraid is also true because I've heard that from many people that I know in all sorts of parts of of London in the southeast and never mind in big cities around around the north of England. But this is the problem is that we've got a culture now in this country which is a culture which has come here from elsewhere which is that they don't want to do any work because they can't they don't have to.
They have as many kids as they want to have and they get paid by the state to do so.
They don't wish to integrate. They don't wish to speak English, but they live here and enjoy the fruits of the of the national kind of you know, handout brigade if you like. And why wouldn't they?
Sooner or later, I think the burden on people who work and I'm talking about in the wealth creating sector. Let's be very clear about it. You're not in the wealth create you might be a very worthy individual, but if you're not in the private sector, you're not in the wealth creating sector. Somebody needs to get up, go to work and their tax needs to be raised from a profit-making situation of the wealth creating sector pay for all the things that we seem to like. The man at the town hall and the man in Whitehall and the civil service don't create anything. They don't create anything. And that's the problem. And there are millions of the buggers.
Millions and millions and millions of them.
Uh and we can't go on sustaining this.
And the National Health is a classic example if you want a classic example.
1.2 million people work for the National Health Service less than half of whom have any medical qualification whatsoever. Not radiographers, nurses, doctors, anything like that. What the hell DO THEY ALL DO? WELL, exactly right. Well, they're certainly not making the service any better, are they?
Cuz it's getting worse and worse and worse. And more and more people are now having to go private even though they can't afford to because they simply need to get themselves fixed up. It's absolutely shocking. I mean, is there anything Here's here's here's a challenge for Is there anything that's actually working at all in this country that you can point to? I once had Mel Stride on um when he was in government and I said, "Can you point me to any government department that actually does what it's supposed to do?" And of course, he was then head of the Work and Pensions Department. He said, "Well, the Work and Pensions Department obviously Clearly, it doesn't work because there are too many people um who are getting paid not to work, unfortunately. Too many people on welfare. Too many people encouraged not to work." Um I can't think of one thing in this country that actually works properly.
Uh neither can I, and I've made that point on many occasions. There is no There is no public sector that is efficient. Uh and this is the kind of problem that we have, and they control everything, and their remit is growing all the time. Uh so, I would counsel people, and certainly your viewers, Mike, um that to just have a look. It doesn't It's quite easily Googled. Have a look at Beveridge, the Beveridge report in 1943, about what welfare was supposed to be.
It was a safety net for the unfortunate through no fault of their own being lifted up uh by a state by the subscription of a stamp, you know, a national insurance stamp.
>> Yes.
Which of course is completely notional.
And that was the idea. Against it myself, we had friendly societies who used to do that sort of thing and didn't put up with the the nonsense that we get today. But look at Beveridge. We are In 1953, uh we drifted away under a socialist government, and we drifted away from the uh relationship between people who contributed and people who benefited then. It's gone. And that went to 1953, it's come one, come all. It's come one, come all. Uh and it's got The trouble is has it got to completely and totally and utterly collapse before we do anything about it? I think the answer is yes.
It's got to simply collapse. Yeah. Well, it's well on the way. I don't think uh you'd say it's closer to uh to midnight uh than it is to dawn, if you like, uh in that sense. But Godfrey, listen.
Great to talk to you, as ever. Uh lots of people very much enthused by what you're saying, and very much in agreement with it as well. So, so if you if you'd like to, we'd very much like to have you on regularly uh if we can um to continue our conversations because we need to keep an eye on these buggers, as you say.
Delighted. Delighted. Delighted.
Excellent. And what's the name of your YouTube channel, people are asking, in case they can go and find it?
>> case, just godfreybloom.uk.
Godfreybloom.uk.
Lots of good stuff in it, and you don't have to pay anything. I won't ask you for any money.
>> [laughter] >> Excellent stuff. Good to see you. Uh and enjoy uh the the the the the the Peak District and the Lake District and all the rest of it. Oh, that's beautiful.
Well played. Uh Godfrey Bloom checking in there from Cockermouth. What a great name.
Uh as most of you know, my work is very heavily independently research-based. Uh and I get my information from all over the world. It would help if you press the subscribe button and the little bell next to it because the more subscribers I have, uh the more likely it is that international independent research institutes will share their material with me. It's most helpful, and then of course, I'll automatically share it with you.
Uh so, surprise won't cost you anything.
Uh thank you very much.
