Melanie, I'm a Christian from South Carolina. Throughout the interview, I found myself repeating, "That's it! Well said. Exactly!" Thank you for being a courageous, intelligent, and principled person of genuine character, wrapped in a lovely manner of communicating. You are a godsend. All the best.
Truth doesn't have an "anti-truth". There is truth that frankly never changes, only perhaps our perception of it, and lies that can change at the whim of the teller. Like you Stan, I find it refreshing to hear the truth and clearly it clangs like a bell in the wilderness of msm miasma.
Stan Eby, just need to agree with you. Melanie Philips has soothed my intellect in a world of madness for years, in her newspaper columns and books. Good to learn she’s heard in South Carolina.
This woman has been a great journalist and a warrior for truth for many decades. What a pleasure to listen to her clear-sightedness. Thanks for inviting her.

I live in France. Last year I was invited to the annual village meal. I'm the only Englishman in the village but many neighbours came to me and commiserated about the Queen's passing. Three of the local women actually cried. They understand that the late Queen stood for something and her passing marked an unwelcome change in this world.
Same here in Canada. We have the same head of state as the UK, so the Queen was here as well - but her importance to many people was greater than being a figurehead or someone to put on stamps and cash. She stood for something bigger than the institution of Monarchy, something bigger than government itself. She came from an era where Class distinctions still existed, and could form a person to put duty first and self second. We have lost that entirely. Now we live in a world where only money seems to matter, and the only interests people are encouraged to pursue are selfish ones.
@@jhb1493, I've often wondered how the 14 other Realms view the monarchy. Don't you see them as a British, therefore foreign, Royal Family with no real connection to Canada?
The French are very polite to foreigners who live in their village, especially when they still show signs of medieval thinking. It’s a bit like pampering a small child.😊
The age of unreason so clearly explained. Thank you Melanie. This age is no accident. This is spiritual warfare. It is such a blessing to hear you speak of what is my experience of life at present. God bless you Melanie. I shall watch this again and again and share it with those people whom I hope will receive it. Wonderful that I came across this. Amen.
"The coronation was a deeply religious ceremony yet we live in a post religious society". This line sums up the entire problem of Britain today. You cannot detach Christianity from a culture that was formed out of nothing but Christianity.
Melanie Phillips is an excellent writer. I loved her book "All Must Have Prizes" from the late 1990s about the dumbing down of education in the UK. She's a national treasure ! This was a great discussion with John Anderson, I think Melanie is right to be concerned about King Charles and his belief in global government. She articulates so well what many decent people are thinking.

At about 8:00, Melanie speaks of the way the nation of America is hurt when a President is or does something dreadful, the way the people are hurt in our identity-that is what I’ve been feeling! I feel that there are so many of us who care about our communities and the world community…and I want to cry out to them, “This is not who we are! Not what we wanted to be!” I love her words about the monarchy, the “old Britain”. How often in my long life I wanted to live in Britain and become a citizen because of these old values…the ones I learned from C.S. Lewis and from Tolkien….not as the popular fantasy romances, but because of the great values and ideals embodied in their philosophies. These men and others like them intentionally used their writings to combat the nihilism and hopelessness around the wreckage of the World Wars and bring courage and hope back to our minds. The servant-leadership and hopefulness of the Queen, as you said, and her unswerving loyalty to her people, were similarly significant. Thank you, John and Melanie, for this encouraging conversation. And thank you, Britain and the entire UK, for your own idealism and example. I know I’m not expressing this the best, but thank you nonetheless.
That is such a naive view. The only thing the queen was about was the survival of Monarchy. She went along with a lot of evil! She also raised horrible children.
Thank you Melanie, everything you have said is absolutely true and makes sense. As you said there are no leaders who have the courage to stand up to reason, to morality. I am so sad to see what has happened to Britain, it is changing so quickly, that we the normal people are left flabasted about the critical culture wars etc. Thank you for your input.
Such a sensible woman and journalist with common sense which is so lacking today in the media. Bravo for her! Great interviewer as well who lets his guest talk.
@@thesilkpainter I was sad that I did not discover him many many years ago. I lived from the age of 10, for 31 years between Tanganyika and South Africa where I got my degree, after which I became interested in Economics while working in many countries, and eventually came across this Afro-American professor that covers many fields. Any thinker will appreciate his texts.
Everyone currently wants to be a victim. You have “so called” Irish Americans claiming their ancestors were slaves as well which is insulting to the real slaves from the past. They may have been indentured servants, but that applied to all poor European immigrants who needed passage they could not afford.
Melanie. I’m part of the silent “majority” and o totally agree with your opinions, based on facts and not ideology. Thank you so much for your clarity and your courage. I hope our leaders listen to you.
I’m from North America, and I’d like to Thank you Melanie for putting into context the plight of Israel in regards to Iran and Palestine. It was in simple terms, and comprehensible..
Melanie Phillips- why didn’t i know about her? Wisdom and knowledge she has been able to discuss all aspects of every problem and every institution and people and foreign policy issues. She is so right on !
I would like to mention that Israel was not a beacon of democratic freedom in respect of dealing with covid-19. Instead Sweden was, which I would not have expected at all.
I was so shocked to see Israel line up so fast and by the millions to take that unknown jab (which we know now.). I thought “did you not learn ANYTHING?”
Thank you Melanie, exactly my thoughts and understanding of many of the issues discussed. You have made the issues, more clear for me, especially regarding Israel and Palestine. I for one am definitely standing up for my objectionable truth. From Perth, Australia, born in Italy and Christian.
It's so strange, i am definitely a democrat (not a liberal or a progressive), but i completely agree that truth is censored and people who speak the truth are oppressed.
The US Democratic Party is dead. Destroyed by embracing the radical Left. The same way as the Australian Labor party has been destroyed. You don’t have to be a Republican but you can’t be a Democrat and claim to not be a radical leftist. Simply look at Biden’s policies and administration
On slavery. I'm white, English, and my ancestors were slaves, They were called serfs, which ammounts to the same thing. They had to work on their lords land. They were not allowed to leave their village, A whipping post in the middle of that village etc. etc. If that's not slavery, i don't know what is!
I am a big fan of Melanie. She is such a clear and wise thinker. Her voice is so overlooked and I believe at our peril. Please keep speaking Truth into the darkness. It is the only way we will see our way forward.
She's an exceptional intellectual with common sense and spiritual message. All with such rationality and clarity that anyone can understand and relate to
Have followed Melanie's writing and opinions for years and she is always balanced and factual. One of the best interviews in recent times. Difficult questions answered with rationality and reason.
Thank you for this brilliant and absorbing conversation. Melanie Phillips’ ability to minutely analyse and describe our modern predicament is awesome. Her defence of Reason, and the flight from it, would also explain why so many youngsters seem nowadays to be suffering from mental illness, I suspect.
Wonderful conversation and one which invites return. Ms Phillips is a first rate speaker who only ever utters reasoned, truthful discourse. 'Truth has become a right wing concept' - where do we go from that?
I thank the God of Israel for this Lady. He has used her eloquent insight into the spirit of the age, to warn the world of the impending danger to mankind. Thank you sincerely for the love of your nation, and the nations of the world. Speaking truth to lies, and shouldering the insult. The Lord bless you, and continue to give you His wisdom.
Six minutes in, Melanie's claims about the British Monarchy should all be made in the past-tense. This is how things were, up until the election of JOHNSON (as with so much else). That single man epitomises what Melanie has to say about our view of the modern politician; and he accounts - in his person - for why we no longer respect politicians and their 'class'. He managed to politicise the Monarchy, too; enrolling the frail elderly Sovereign Lady Elizabeth II had become, in all of his covid shams: not least those wretched injected products (which are, strangely, no longer available trough the new 'our' NHS). When it comes to "this rather troubled Country" (30:00) the ordinary INDIGENOUS Briton is not "troubled", except that s/he sees the land which is her/his ancestral homeland, and birthright, under attack from Globalist-Communists like JOHNSON and Parliament. This is why BREXIT was not honoured (except as a lie to ensure JOHNSON got himself elected!). There are NO 'patriots' in Parliament (with one or two noble exceptions): and this is our trouble. Fortunately, I am seventy-one, and in poor health: so I will not see the Globalist-Communist 'Utopia' which is on its way. For, like all versions of Marxism/Communism, there will only be two 'classes': those individuals who are ENTITLED to rule (including technocrats), and the 'serfs'; whose task will be to serve the upper class. All those who disagree with this system will - if history teaches anything - have been eliminated. The 'royal' family have always know on which side their bread is buttered; and so they will do whatever it takes to keep 'The Firm' afloat (the House of Hanover-Saxe-Coburg-Gotha-Battenburg-'Windsor').
Re Israel: So communities which have been in a majority for over a thousand years (Arabs) are to be kicked out by a distant colonial power on the say so of a religious text written thousands of years ago. So very rational !
6/12/2023 - thank you so much for putting into words our thoughts! My husband and I are Christians, and live in a blue state. We are so concerned for our grandchildren and the state of our nation! The world is in turmoil and your wisdom was like an island of sanity. I immediately ordered your biography, and read it so I could know my newly found friend better! Thank you John for your brilliant and thoughtful interviews. We appreciate you so much for giving voice to our concerns!!
Thankyou so much for your work im so glad that inteligent people are now thinking they might be the problem !! University is the brain drain God bless us all
Thank you both for your work. Melanie has lived a life of purpose. I thank God for speaking into her heart and mind. My heart wants to find others to share this with.
What a remarkable woman with such intelligence, clarity and thorough understanding of history and current events, yet with such deep-seated values. Such a fascinating interview. Thank you!
As a 50-year-old born and bred Catholic Englishman, I found the ceremony extremely beautiful and emotional. I say emotional because I felt like I was mourning, not only the death of possibly the best embodiment of what I deem to be the human embodiment of what is to be British in a Monarch, but also religion, truth and morality because all of those things seem to have been completely remove especially from politics and contemporary British culture. This country is not Great Britain anymore its just England, sadly.
Charles' known very close associations with the World Economic Forum, the climate issues,etc. needs to be talked about and examined publicly . I frankly have little trust in the man.
If only Melanie could be PM! So perfectly put. Cannot be said better. There’s a mourning for the passing of a very British culture. Right wing can be simply just old fashioned but precisely TRUE!
Truth matters. Agree. Knowing the truth correctly is important. Teaching of truth is more important. Religious manipulation of truth is most important.
The higher you go up the ladder, you find irrational people... It's the results of the theories of deconstruction from French philosophers Michel Foucault and Jacques Derrida. An age of unreason indeed, and also of emotionalism
I find it troubling that our King is so politically active, and, not least, that he is involved with the WEF. This to me prevents him from being able to be 'above the fray'. It is not so much what he does in public as what he does behind the scenes. It could cost him his kingship. Melanie, I want you to know that each morning I spend about 10 minutes praying for Israel and have done so since 2012. I believed it was God who commanded me to do this after reading a book. You have given me some specific 'fodder' to pray about rather than in general terms. If He has told me to pray in this way, I am certain He has commanded others.
Although I was born in the 1950s it was not until later that I realised why our Queen was held in such esteem. For instance even as a Princess ,in wartime there she was seen working at repairs of army vehicles and setting an example to young women at that time how they too could help the war effort , like the land army or despatch riders. As a Queen she upheld relations with leaders abroad. The Royal Family are the custodians of the character of English people.
Go Melanie! You are wonderful. I was a great admirer of the Queen too. Her presence was always felt in our lives . Like Tim Taylor, I say a special thanks for presenting the facts and truth about Jewish people and Israel. Please continue your fantastic work and tell the world to wake up! Thank you too, John Anderson
Absolutely loved this interview. Melanie Phillips is so good to listen to and John should be congratulated for his great skill in again getting the best out of those whom he interviews.

What a remarkable woman with such intelligence, clarity and thorough understanding of history and current events, yet with such deep-seated values. Such a fascinating interview. Thank you!
Thank you Melanie for speaking the truth.
A wise woman - always great to listen to - thank you
As a 50-year-old born and bred Catholic Englishman, I found the ceremony extremely beautiful and emotional. I say emotional because I felt like I was mourning, not only the death of possibly the best embodiment of what I deem to be the human embodiment of what is to be British in a Monarch, but also religion, truth and morality because all of those things seem to have been completely remove especially from politics and contemporary British culture. This country is not Great Britain anymore its just England, sadly.
Excellent conversation.I agree with every word she spoke.
Charles' known very close associations with the World Economic Forum, the climate issues,etc. needs to be talked about and examined publicly .
I frankly have little trust in the man.
We live in hope.Everyone makes mistakes...and he lives in a bubble.
Lets hope its those advising him...
You are 100% right.
@@cryptosheets3162seriously?! What Charles has said and done is not “a little mistake.” Look it up for yourself. You obviously don’t know.
Listened as I worked... Agree across all points with Melanie Phillips.
Totally agree. ..I look at people like Boris , Rishi, Cameron etc...grim, right?
If only Melanie could be PM! So perfectly put. Cannot be said better. There’s a mourning for the passing of a very British culture. Right wing can be simply just old fashioned but precisely TRUE!
Spread the word folks. Truth matters or we are NOTHING
Truth matters. Agree. Knowing the truth correctly is important. Teaching of truth is more important. Religious manipulation of truth is most important.
A pleasure to listen to this conversation. Thank you.
Melanie Phillips, Camille Paglia - there's not enough of them
Arguably the two greatest female minds of our age. One left; one right.
Well said, Melanie Phillips. Sad that Britain is doomed.
As is the USA 😔
Brilliant woman, great interview.
I LOVE Melanie Phillips
She's a living icon & intellectual.
The higher you go up the ladder, you find irrational people... It's the results of the theories of deconstruction from French philosophers Michel Foucault and Jacques Derrida. An age of unreason indeed, and also of emotionalism
With the benefit of a little hindsight. One of the best interviews on UA-cam right now!
John you are the best. Your interviews are riveting . I could listen to you all day.I learn so much.Keep doing them.
MS Philips is wonderful in her clarity!
I find it troubling that our King is so politically active, and, not least, that he is involved with the WEF. This to me prevents him from being able to be 'above the fray'. It is not so much what he does in public as what he does behind the scenes. It could cost him his kingship.
Melanie, I want you to know that each morning I spend about 10 minutes praying for Israel and have done so since 2012. I believed it was God who commanded me to do this after reading a book. You have given me some specific 'fodder' to pray about rather than in general terms. If He has told me to pray in this way, I am certain He has commanded others.
Well done. More people need to be educated on who Charles really is and how he has sold his soul many times over to the highest bidder.
Although I was born in the 1950s it was not until later that I realised why our Queen was held in such esteem. For instance even as a Princess ,in wartime there she was seen working at repairs of army vehicles and setting an example to young women at that time how they too could help the war effort , like the land army or despatch riders. As a Queen she upheld relations with leaders abroad. The Royal Family are the custodians of the character of English people.
Listening from Lisboa. Portugal. Great jornalism and polítical and social analysis.
Go Melanie! You are wonderful. I was a great admirer of the Queen too. Her presence was always felt in our lives . Like Tim Taylor, I say a special thanks for presenting the facts and truth about Jewish people and Israel. Please continue your fantastic work and tell the world to wake up! Thank you too, John Anderson
Enjoyed the dicussion so much. Very enlightening. Interviewer John Anderson is always so calm, patient and polite, real gentleman.
Its a delight hearing two very insightful and principled people.🙂
Absolutely loved this interview. Melanie Phillips is so good to listen to and John should be congratulated for his great skill in again getting the best out of those whom he interviews.
Thank you so much Melanie Philips for telling the world the truth about o
