Thanks Matt, for speaking up for us. It must feel like being thrown into a snake pit. We are very grateful.

Good work, Matt. I caught a clip – you said something true (sorry, “racist”) and Fiona Bruce nearly short-circuited while the Guardian-intern audience gasped and clutched their pearls. Brilliant stuff. Keep going – the vast majority of the country’s with you, even when the BBC dials up the gaslighting to 11.

Ps. I’m new here – refreshing to see people waking up after years of this nonsense. I cover the same ground, do subscribe 🙏

I think she means your joke about ‘true, sorry racist’.

Welcome to our sane, honest and truthful ‘community’ - awful expression. And I agree, I think there are plenty of people here who would enjoy your excellent substack.

You certainly stood your ground with the wokerati and stood up for us. I suspect there were strategic “plants” in audience with rehearsed questions . Well done for holding your patience - many thanks.

Matt, I don’t have a tv licence so only see clips on X but you were “bloody brilliant”. Lisa Nandy’s face was a picture and the grifter on the far right was way out of her depth despite her Soros training. Keep it up. Fight the good fight.

As an aside, I bought my poppy today and had a chat to the lady. We’re about to get the Crowborough illegals visiting our town. People are changing behaviours already. Her 19 yo granddaughter has been forbidden to take the bus as it’s now deemed too dangerous. It’s grim out there.

Great work Matt, very well argued. Thanks so much for making the point for the silent majority in this country of ours.

Impressive. Question Time is a bear pit for anyone right of centre and no doubt Matt's invitiation to Bradford was in the expectation of a particularly hostile audience. Except they were not as bad as usual, a testimony to Matt's fact driven and articulate speaking. Notwthstanding his conviction it can't have been a pleasant experience. The clips were a pleasure to watch just for the facial expressions of the muppet on the end who was unsettled that reality was intruding on her fantasy view of the country and immigration.

The question on everyone's mind is will Matt stand for parliament? Will Reform give him a good seat? He will have an army of supporters travelling to help with canvassing and promotion in whatever constituency he stands in - if he does. He may feel that Parliament is not really much of a platform but it would add to his growing influence. We need MPs grounded in reality. He would be a good one surely.

Of course he’ll stand as a Reform candidate. Matt is a potential Home Secretary or Justice Secretary at least. Our other friend Liam Halligan is a future Treasury Minister assuming Tice is Chancellor.

If Matt should decide to stand as an MP (and Reform form the next government) then I think Matt should be Education Secretary; whilst not as high profile as some other offices not only is this one of the most vital roles to ensure that the next generations of young adults, ultimate leaders, academics, police, judiciary are de-wokeified (!), but it is Matt’s ultimate sweet spot. And after Birdshit Philipson (!) leaves the post, there will be so much to rebuild. On the other hand he may not stand !

Yes, he would be a fantastic MP and has the knowledge and determination to sort out the scandal of our education system with Reform in power.

I understand his reluctance to join Reform. It kind of emphasises that principles are more important than party loyalty. It leaves him free to publicly disagree with Farage if that becomes necessary. I, too, make support conditional. It's why I stopped voting Conservative. Badenoch may persuade me otherwise, but clearly hasn't yet remoulded her party.

In a way, it's a shame it isn't easier to appoint non-MPs as ministers, because I agree that Matt's articulacy and wisdom are invaluable, and all too rare.

I had to stop watching after 20 minutes Matt. Not because you were losing the argument. Quite the opposite. But you couldn’t win and the hand picked audience wouldn’t listen to you because people like us are evil to them and their indoctrination. I apologise to not being there for you at least virtually but I find the experience so depressing.

Then I ask myself why things are like this. Is it because of indoctrinated beliefs from organisations like the Fabian Society? Starmer has been a member all his life and they seem to have told him what to do like a robot as he doesn’t seem to have any beliefs and is unable to think. The Fabians have learned how to use the law against the people and it’s essential you and Nigel are strong on changing this. Sadly QT proved to me that too many of our society are totally incapable of thinking for themselves.

I fear you are right, but live in hope. And the Fabian Society are far more dangerous than the fabled EDL.

The Martyr's avatar

Yes Fabianism is far more dangerous as you say. It’s a cult or religion and our PM just accepts that everything Fabian is automatically true. Because of its apparent gentle innocence Fabianism has been allowed to infiltrate all aspects of our lives. The previous wolf in sheep’s clothing tells us all we need to know as does the slow but sure tortoise which has replaced it. I would like to see the British media ask every politician whether they are Fabians, Freemasons or any semi-secret societies so the public begins to understand what they’re dealing with.

I can only underscore the last comment.!!

You’re the future Prime Minister Matt…, -and you behave appropriately.

I was nervous for you. It felt that you were deliberately put into a panel / area that was an absolute tinder box with panellists that had to be handled so delicately and you handled SOOOO well.!

Masterclass Matt.

I picked up QT this morning on catchup. I'm sorry, but I managed to watch only 20 or so mins. It was actually making me anxious ... and I'm no wilting wallflower!

I felt the majority of the audience were biased, as was the panel, with you as the voice of reason. As far as Fiona Bruce.... 🤦‍♀️

I like to keep an open mind and will watch shows that I know will contain views that don't relate to mine but the brain-washing and overt anti-Reform or anti-right sentiment was palpable... even through the camera lens.

When Lisa Nandy started talking about "what she meant as the far-right" when an audience member questioned her slur, being "the bussed-in nazis", I was driven to laughing at her utter temerity and politician-slick, blantant lying and a*se-covering.

You speak for more moderate people than they will ever admit that they are kept awake at night by.

Keep on truckin', we're right with you.

Ex Prince Andrew’s behaviour is a great way for the Left to hope people will forget the grooming gangs scandal. The more news about him the less space for a far worse cover up.

True. He’s being used as a scapegoat and Charles just wants that wretched house. Charles cares nothing for our poor little girls. He’s too fond of his Muslim brothers. It’s a worse scandal than anything Andrew did or didn’t do.

What a BBC stitch up. Bradford, which was abandoned by the majority British population long ago, and a panel full of liberlefties. Question Time epitomises how the graduate cosmopolitan class manipulates the media. The establishment urgently needs to be replaced.

I thought the BBC did a brilliant job with the QT audience; I can’t imagine how far afield they had to go to get so many pro-Labour, pro-immigration participants from one of the most forgotten, segregated, deprived cities which has experienced the worst of the Pakistani grooming gang culture. I cannot imagine that audience represented much of the indigenous community.

The Luxury Belief System that "Diversity is our strength" has been relentlessly pushed now in our media, culture and education system for decades.

A generation brainwashed to sellout their own people, nation and civilisation.

The post 1945 Liberal paradigm across ALL of the West has been a disaster.

Both the Left and the centre Right post 1945 have failed to conserve ANYTHING.

Post 1945 Liberal, Capitalism (now Oligarchy) has been like an acid on our family life, borders, culture, civilisation and it has also outsourced our manufacturing and industrial base.

The Martyr's avatar

Much of the problems you rightly cite are attributable to Fabianism. Luxury erroneous beliefs which cannot be challenged. That’s how they work and why Starmer has no beliefs of his own to fall back on and why he is unable to speak without reading a prepared script. His words and thoughts are not his own. Blair was also a Fabian but was slightly less wedded as he is a staunch Roman Catholic whereas true Fabians are atheist.

Staunch Roman Catholic? Not admitted until after he had ceased to be PM. And what about his lying, cheating, selling our country down the river - is that what a "staunch Roman Catholic" should/would do?

Edit: or maybe he just thinks he can say a couple of Hail Marys and be absolved for the above and for all the killing he was responsible for.

The Martyr's avatar

Fair points. He’s a scumbag and a liar of course and has been exposed and denigrated by almost everyone. However it’s hard not to see Starmer as fundamentally more dangerous as Blair wasn’t the zealot Fabian that Starmer clearly is. Blair had his faith which strict Fabianism denies given its atheist beliefs. Starmer won’t divert from what he’s told to even risk giving his own thoughts.

Blair’s “faith” didn’t stop him cheating, lying, killing and watering the seeds of destruction for this country. The reason Starmer can steamroll ahead with his Fabian instructions is because Blair had already paved the path for him. Without Blair before him Starmer could (edit: NOT) be as dangerous or do what he is doing, and obviously intends to do.

For me the Left are just useful idiots for the current regime.

It is ultimately the Bankers / international finance capitalism that is driving the open borders Globalisation project and the post 1945 Liberal paradigm (across ALL of the West/ Global American Empire)

E.g Immigration = importing cheap labour/ wages suppressed.

Feminism = women I'm the work place/ both parents working/ wages suppressed

Ect.

The biggest con perpetrated upon us by the banks was when they began taking both incomes of a couple into consideration for mortgage borrowing, instead of the main earner, because all it did was inflate the price of houses! Brilliant!

I completely agree, on the basis of many things I've read. But do you know of a (relatively short) paper that sets out the hows, whys and wherefores of this?

My husband believes that it is largely universal "incompetence" by governments etc. I don't know what to show him - I've tried artices on the Kalergi plan. He sees it but doesn't think that all that's happening is necessarily related or directed by any source.

Absolutely hate the left leaning Question Time but forced myself to watch it last night to see what they would throw at you. Couldn't believe how many times Lisa Nandy looked at Fiona Bruce almost begging her to stop you speaking. You were absolutely brilliant Matt (as usual) and I loved how you turned the discussion from the Royalty problems into the Grooming Gangs, thought Bruce was going to have a panic attack! Well done Matt, thank you for speaking the truth.

Thanks Matt for your energy in saying it as it is. Fiona Bruce just loves to jump on you and shut you down. It’s quite comical. All with a fixed smile on her face and her carefully plucked android Dr Spock eyebrows 🤮
