- Author Douglas Murray reacts to a fiery exchange between Guyana’s President Irfaan Ali and a BBC journalist in which the President hit back after being questioned about his country’s carbon emissions.
The President hit out at BBC’s Stephen Sackur after being asked if the country planned to extract oil and gas along its coast.
"It’s a telling exchange for several reasons, but the most important is the presumption that underlies the BBC interview is questioned," Mr Murray told Sky News host Rita Panahi.
“The presumption that we, with our COP Climate Summit, all know what’s best, and you have to just get on board with it.
“You have to fly to the COP Summit, do your duty and fly back and do what you’re told - and here is something that completely breaks that narrative - I was delighted to see it.
“And delighted to see somebody standing up to this and the hectoring and the bullying way of going about things.”
Typical BBC combination of ignorance and arrogance
Privileged F wits.
AKA marxism.
Liars BBC propaganda.
He's no Marxist just an arrogant tit. You are just as ill informed as he is. I'm behind the 70% who doesn't you or him. Now fuck off.
it's called .... Smugnerance
This BBC host is an absolute fool! Obviously never did his homework. God bless Guyana & it's fierce leader.
Not really fierce, just honest and putting an idiot in his place.
It’s the ‘Hard Talk’ bloke Steven Sakur. It’s his brief to be hard. Also predictable and annoying. This is a President he’s talking to! Typical BBC.
@@barbaracleverly9058 I bet if Steven would interview President Biden he wouldn't do the hard talk, he'd ask him about his favourite ice cream.
Should imprison to see if he is a spy
@@barbaracleverly9058can’t stand the arrogant guy
Proud to be living in the next to Guyana, Suriname. Respect to pres Ali.
Stephen Sackur will need to be treated for PTSD after that bruising interview. 😂
Stephen Sackur will be swimming in cash after that interview, you f00ls don’t realize that the primary objective is to conduct a highly entertaining interview.It’s unbelievable how shallow-minded the majority of you are!
Well done gentleman from Guyana, don't sit and listen to BBC bull***t.
The leader of Guyana is a racist.
The Guyana president hasn’t done anything remarkable , he has only given Sackur much more attention than he already had, and by so doing, has enriched Sackur and the media agency he works for. How shallow-minded could you be not to understand that the primary objective is to conduct an entertaining interview that will get millions of views on UA-cam?
Well done President Irfaan Alit who stuck up for his country against a very condescending interviewer.
Agreed!
Do you have a link where we. An see his lecture
He's like that with everyone.
@@johndoe-vc1weunless they have the same political beliefs as him and the BBC. Reminds me of James O’Brien. Very intolerant of different opinions.
@@nickgodfrey1148 James of LBC you mean. Yeah, similar style
If same oil reserve is found in near British coast what will Britain do?
Oil was found in the north sea off the north coast of Britain in the early 1960's, it's called the "north sea oil fields" the British have been extracting oil from it since the 1960's to the tune of forty two billion barrels so far and has reserves under the north sea that will last for another thirty five years. The arrogance, ignorance, and hypocrisy of this reporter is astounding.
Rita and Doughlas Murray combination is the best in the media channel. Their view on things are so on point and accurate. My favourite news channel is SKY NEWS AUSTRALIA for this reason. Keep it up with your honest reporting. Douglas Murray is a slayyer as always. One of the finest thinkers and debaters of our time.
Murray is great debater unless you tell him to debate norman finkelstein. He was scared of Norman.
@@ab-cm2ic
Because he is paid by IDF and can't argue with scholars on their speciality and profession
Stephen Sackur himself uses no fossil fuels.
Jumping off the terrace of his posh flat in Kensington, he flew to Guyana first class on a giant gust of his own sanctimony.
You are good with words, which is nice to see.
The BBC all over. They love to lecture and 'hold people to account'. 🙄
Ha ha, that was brilliant 👍
@dixonpinfold2582 - Your proposition seems entirely plausible.
😂😂😂😂😂 brilliant
Bravo to the President. More world leaders need to learn from him & stand up for truth.
Douglas Murray, a voice of reason and sanity in an ever growing crazy world.
Absolute clown.
lmao that slimy bastard thrives on his people's ignorance
respect for President Irfan Ali. I am a proud as Carribean that we have Him as a leader
The smugness of this BBC journalist looking above his glasses at the president while he lectured him. The response by the president couldn't have been more perfect.
That retard from BBC did not recover from the roughing up… no James Bond style repartee!
Yes his body language was condescending to say the least.
Bbc are appalling
I really hate this stance. Looking over his glasses, legs crossed over in a haughty manner... reminds me of grammar school when I was called to be discipled by the headmaster. (which was often).
It's the guy from hardtalk. It's not supposed to be some Tucker Carlson Putin dick sucking style interview
Stephen Sackur, a BBC arrogant mouthpiece. Awful.
Or as I used to call him, when he was a regular BBC journalist: Stephen Sackur Shit.
Just another Paxman pretend tough guy clone wannabe.
He's nasty
Stephen Sucker
Irfaan Ali put him in his place. Great stuff. I grew up in Guyanamy dad being Guyanese. Great job Mr. Ali.
Well done Guyana it is your time !
Well done Mr President.
Well said Mr President. Putting that arrogant p...person in his place. 👏👏👏⭐♥️
That was a completely accurate reaction from the PM of Guyana - I do not hear the BBC interviewing the British PM or the Norwegian PM in that critical manner when those countries decide to open up new areas to drill for oil in the North Sea.
he's our President
Mr President - I salute you !
Love Douglas Murray for telling it like it is, and for being unafraid of telling the truth! 👍
Hahahahahaha you love him for something he never does? Weird flex dingleberry.
That was so great of the president getting the upstart told - And climate challenge is over hyped to the max.
Its good to see strong leaders put their country first.
How dare an interviewer ask a president what gives him the right to make decisions for his country?
That journalist is an arrogant, condescending racist. That’s why he dared.
ikr lol then they are the same ones that cry 'muh democracy'
Especially since Ali qualification is ????.Ali even qualified to be president????.😅
@@gujapattieseebarran4262 do you know his educational Background?
@@gujapattieseebarran4262He was elected by the majority. Same system as in your country.
Bollox to the climate cult and ‘well done’ president of Guyana!
All the tree's we are told we will be growing will thank the president for all the extra nutrient gas to help them grow strong ... we need more Co2, not less!!!
The President slapped this fool's arse
Hmmmmm, the blowing up of the nordtream pipeline was the single greatest release of co2 ever. Not a peep from the climate cultists.
Exactly 💯
Because it didn't support the narrative and agenda of the climate cultists
Good comments from Douglas Murray on challenging the western agenda about Climate change and the UN Happiness Index! My family live in Sweden, and when I talk to them 'happiness' is not how they are viewing their country! And as for the President of Guyana, what a warrior for truth and defending the developing world perspective!!!! Definitely need to hear more of their voices!!!
Well done, Guyana President 😂
🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱✝️🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
Wheat a simp you are 😂
Murray supports his best friend Israel now that they have bombed his own citizens?
Anyone want to actually here what the guy who put the guy in Guyana actually said after he proclaimed that he was going to lecture the presenter?
What is he trying to say????
Stephen “Interuptathon” Sackur had his sorry liberal arse handed to him.
😅
But his career within the BBC is absolutely secure.
The frustrating/sad issue is that Mr. Sackur will not for a single moment reflect upon the merits of the President's words.
He will harrumph and grumble about an upstart backwater getting uppity with his "betters".
The BBC is chock FULL of sanctimonious troglodytes like Sackur.
Love the Guyans President response
Douglas Murray is one of my favourite journalist/author who speaks without fear or favour , common sense and factual.
Why don't these crybabies I mean "activist" go tell China about carbon emissions?..
You mean the China of 1.4 billion? The same China that leads the world on sustainable public transport greening solar energy and environmental cleanup? That China? Now you know why.
How about someone tell the activists that carbon dioxide is possibly the most important part of the atmosphere and nobody knows what the amount of carbon dioxide has been over time. When the industrial revolution ostensibly started, humans hadn't,t discovered what they called Fixed Air yet. How could they have the parts per million measurements of something they didn't know existed before the time that the climate alarmists claim that human industry has radically and catastrophically altered
Then we have an ice again and lock it all up xD
Because they are probably paid by them.
Thank God for Douglas Murray! Honestly! These self righteous prigs who know NOTHING are so tiresome!
Thank God also for the president of Guyana who directly rebuffs the virtue signalling, groundless statement.
But they seem to have all the power over policy.
Douglas Murray is a lying scumbag grifter. Imbecile.
Weird seeing anything about my country in the news. We get up to absolutely nothing.
This is a good lesson for the other BBc journalists
Good for Guyana.
It was beautiful! Good for the Guyana 🇬🇾 President!
Just booked a holiday to Guyana, land of the truth!
let me know how that goes. hope you are not gay
Taking my family there next month for holidays!! I'm sure you'll have a great trip
Ali is a racist piece of 💩💩💩💩... Come and see what his government administration is doing to Hebrew and Africans... Over 95% of contracts given by the government, go to the friends, family and favourite Indian people...
Also, the accident rate is very high and a lot of pickpockets are around because we have over 50% of us living in poverty in an oil rich nation with a 27.5% growth rate, while the neo-colonizers (Europeans) direct Ali...
@piggler-pn7xq what is Gay?
Well done Australia. You have never needed to feel guilty...you're a grand nation and be proud of it...
The others can take a long walk of a short pier...and into the smiling shark infested waters...
Sorry about the BBC reporter...he got out of the looney bin...
Steven Sucker. Thank you Mr President. Douglas Murray - i’ve recently read his books , “The madness of crowds” and “The war on the west”. Brilliant man. He brings so many things to light that we all should become aware of. Strongly recommended reading him.
Ive been to Guyana and let me tell you that BBC Host wouldn't dare shoot his mouth off there 😅
tell us more?
@@IceKube9 Let's just say they don't take any prisoners there and there's enough jungle on the other side of the river to hide a million let alone 1
The guy was 100% right. What right do other countries tell them what to do .
Especially when the UK has destroyed and consumed the vast majority of its primeval forests. For you to reach the Nottingham forest, starting off from the city of Nottingham, you need to drive for more than 1 h. That's how small the Nottingham forest has become throughout the centuries. And this superbly arrogant BBC nobody, dares to lecture others about Nature preservation...
Pomposity vs. Pragmatic thought, and application of objectivity, and reason. God Bless the people of Ghana, and their future prosperity!
Guyana's people have suffered enough, I'm happy for my Caribbean brothers and sisters there!
Defund the rotten Beeb!
The B.B.C. ha..ha.
Totally roasted by the Guyana president.
It was wonderful to witness 👏👏👏
no more licence fees , no more , it's a legal crime .
Bullies... that's what they are Bullies. Thank you Douglas Murray for all you do to get the truth out there. God bless you all. ❤❤❤
As someone from the Caribbean it brings me joy seeing this
😂 He look for it! Wrong region to come an talk kaka.
Caribbean peeps ain't have time for Fkery in such scenarios, as we go come back an lambast your arse wid de truth, you can take it or leave it. Caribbean peeps are definitely a special breed of humans, very concious ppl.
Why does this bring you joy? What is it about being from the Caribbean that makes seeing this somehow enabled you to fulfill your heart's happiness? Did I miss something?
Also, why would 18 people give this a thumbs up? For instance, I think that as a person from Guyana watching this might bring put their homeland and president in the spotlight and instill a sense of pride and dignity in comparison to the once mighty British Empire.....
@@whatacrazyride1658 nothing brings me greater happiness than watching a fellow Guyanese fish slap an arrogant beeb reporter! now time to celebrate with some rum !! are you jealous? cheers! :)
@@user-vj4hs3li8d Well, what I certainly missed at the time I asked these questions was the actual interview where the "fish slapping" took place, but what I might still be missing is whether Guyanese Guys would consider themselves Caribbean? In other words, I saw the excitement about a video clip that actually cut the content of the President, awkwardly, and your statement of rooting on a fellow Guyanese fish slapping an Arrogant " Beeb" seems a little more explanatory to me, regardless of my not knowing what a Beeb is. This brings me to my point, I have now watched the whole video which was hard for me to find on UA-cam, and that Hard Talk Announcer was what I would perceive as worse than a Beeb, and your countryman and president seemed to hold just about the right tone for his style of arrogant and loaded interview. What was readily apparent was the sophistication that the presenter attempted to display was met forcefully in a way that was consistent, nuanced, and sophisticated in its full presentation and not an act. He has a perfect way of making this kind of presenter look like such a fool with his calm repetition of what he already explained, that left me focused on just how pathetic this guy's hard talk was, because the response showed his growing impatience and refusal to accept a perfectly reasonable answer several times in a row which is a baby's way of argument. His refusal to throw Exxon or the previous regime under the bus emotionally when given the charged questions, showed a guy who is at the top of his game who will be able to renegotiate because of his steady hand. Bravo, your guy let the presenter make a fool out of himself and deftly let Venezuela know that if they decide to get aggressive that they will have a fight on their hands from a strategic and calm under pressure leader who has done the backend lining up of allies. So, I am not jealous, but I am impressed.
Glad to know that someone like Douglas Murray exists. He let's it out with such clarity. Thanks for making him speak.
Everyone should react exactly as this President did….bravo
Well said Mr President. What COP/BBC arrogance!
My applause to the pres. of Guyana!
Temperatures have always gone up and down, I'm old enough recall the warnings about an impending ice age!!
If you drill down to philosophical fundamentals you’ll find that the issue is not that temperatures go up and down, it’s that humans allegedly cause them to go up and down in addition to nature. The idea is that if nature does it it’s fine. If humans do it it’s evil. They believe human impact is evil. Hence why they refer to Net Zero.
Nobody is that old.
@@whatacrazyride1658yes we are
Likewise, and also the warning that the earth would be flooded as a precursor to to the new ice age, all of which were predicted to happen in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Still hasn’t happened. Then along comes a teenage schoolgirl from Sweden and castigates the adult population of the planet,and Academia falls to its knees in worship of the new messiah of climate knowledge and hence the world’s obsession with a myth.
It's funny when the lefty sheep say we should trust the science. I look at the repeated failure of their predictions over the decades as proof the scientists have NFI!
As a Guyanese, I'm proud of president Ali.
Guyana's rain forest is larger than England and Scotland combined? Really?
Yes
Guyana guy did a Master Class in: "Your lane is all Talk. We walk the Walk."
That exchange reminded me of Bukele's confrontation with an MSM goon a while back.👍
Let's start using our coal reserves again in the UK to get back to cheaper, plentiful energy.
No let's nationalise energy full stop it is absolute ripp off
@@robertbest4398 Please lets NOT! Can you give me an example of a single publicly owned or managed institution or company that actually works well. If the public sector had been running supermarkets during the pandemic, the entire country would have starved to death!!
@@Alok-fg8dd bullshit energy needs to be affordable nationalised the only way mr
Let’s not use coal thanks it’s toxic to burn
@@robertbest4398 obviously a labour voter!
Well done Mr Irfaan we are no poppet to other country
Let him go and question the queen
You rock, Douglas Murray!
Steven Sakur made an idiot of himself
I beg to differ, It's very clear the BBC interviewer was infact already an idiot before the interview commenced.
In terms of subject matter knowledge the BBC guy was totally illprepared.
In terms of getting his arse handed to him on a plate, it was a simple case of that old but wise saying,
Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.
He didn't have to try hard!😂
What's new?
The fact that Guyana dared to nationalise their oil instead of the mistake done by Nigeria where they invited BP and chevron
AND the Chinese as well...
Fantastic reply
This was beautifully done!!mad props to the Guyanese President...
N I'm a Trini 😂😂
I just wish we had politicians half as smart as this guy from Guyana, its sad to see the BBC hire idiots like this nowadays such an ego.
Rita, you’re the best!
Great choice of guest as well.
Well said, Bravo!
That's how we in the west indies do it. We don't take that foolish from no one. Tell it to Dubai UAE etc. they won't dear.
Wow, way to go Mr. President! Keep it up!
Absolutely proud of the Guyanese president. Perfect response. Tell ‘em to shove it!
We have a similar governor-general in Canada. Good thing they don't do much.
The Wikipedia 'context disclaimer' given at the apex of the comments section:
_"Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. Human activities have been the main driver of climate change, primarily due to the burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas."_
Well, crikey. I didn't know we were that important, what with us only being around for about 150,000 years and barely being a tiny sliver of an inconsequential blip on a planet that still hasn't even noticed we're here.
Good job some chaps have worked out that there's a way to make incredibly gullible people give them enormous amounts of money to make their own lives luxuriously wonderful at the expense of everyone else, otherwise we'd all be doomed.
Because there's absolutely no way that this unpredictable lump of rock tumbling through the cosmos since the beginning of time could have possibly experienced tumultuous climate changes for *_14 BILLION YEARS_* before our particular species of slimy liars, cheats and thieves crawled out of the stinking swamps and decided that paying money was the only way to save us all.
Oh, wait... Isn't that religion?
God... Climate change...
Bunch of Cults.
If you compress the entire history of planet earth into a single year, the human species appears at around 15 minutes to midnight on December 31st (I'm presuming that's all hominids, not just H. sapiens). The agricultural revolution occurs at around 4 seconds to midnight and the industrial revolution at 2 seconds to midnight. How arrogant are the people who ascribe to humanity the power to totally upset global climate systems in that tiny span of time.
OMG! You said it so well...and I love it! Sadly, there are people who believe that humans are causing "climate change".
So brilliant. Sick of journalists who don't do their research & don't prepare before interviews. Using aggression & repetition to cover ignorance. Pathetic
Instead of lecturing the uk govt on ..high taxes ..corrupt govt ..low wages for the general public ..many many things
The Guyana president hit the nail on the head
And I think the President of Guyana might lecture Douglas on why homosexuality is frowned upon in many countries, and indeed, why in some countries homosexual acts are treated as criminal acts.
Good man. BBC is ridiculous.
The Guyana President Rips the hypocrisy a new one. There is more to that clip. OMG Prez very smart.
I love this man, as an American who supports all American projects , EXXON is our big one.. and fact that Exxon is raking it in thanks to this gentleman, all Americans must owe this man our gratitude.
Exxon getting nearly 90% of the profit, this is Our oil, if u dig it it's yours!!
Does that give you the right to deny the people of Guyana the same life as people of the UK
Just for that, I'm going to Guyana on vacation just to get the clean ocean breeze of common sense.
They are the only English speaking country in south America
Good for you 👍 😊
It’s been on TripAdvisor’s world’s best kept secret travel destination. Don’t forget to check out the tallest clear drop waterfall found in Guyana. Kaiteur Falls. One of the world’s natural wonders.
I live there don't believe what a politician says. It's always what they do. There's no clean air here. It's totally opposite. Very dirty
Guyana President 👍👍👍👍👍👍 🥇
The man is fierce a real son of Guyana. I am now a US citizen but I was born in Guyana. Happy for the Guyanese President leadership. Thank God for USA defense of little Guyana against Venezuelan also over oil.
Konstantin Kisin said it best; "You can't keep these people poor forever."
so Britain gets to pump out co2 for the last 200 years and reap the benefits of industry, and when a tiny country gets a windfall and wants to do the same all of a sudden its bad?
Not to mention that Britain used to be covered in forests right up until the late middle ages.
It has been claimed that China has pumped out more co2 in the last eight or ten years than Britain has since the industrial revolution.
Which created an increase in living standards, which they don't want for a lot of other countries.
What a guy, I wish our leaders had the balls he has , to say and do exactly what is needed.
Douglas as always, tells it like it is 👏
The exchange was so typical... How dare a small country be successful and potentially not need the "help" or resources from the bigger nations...
Well done Guyana
Absolutely brilliant exchange well done Guyana 👏👏
Not only is Douglas Murray a great pleasure to listen to because of his accurate outlook on this inceasingly disturbing world, but his eloquence and command of the English language has been hard to come across in the last 50 years . In this respect he reminds me of the great Enoch Powell
I agree, Douglas is actually a pleasure to listen to because he is intelligent.
Because you don’t know any better. We were ruled under the monarchy for decades. We know what is best for our country.

well said gyana💖💖
I love you Rita 😇
After researching my family history for the last two years, I never realised how hard life was for my parents and grandparents. Two world wars, losing close family, real rationing for years, having to pay for the doctor to visit, high infant mortality rates,no television, no phone, reading by candles, nits in the hair, no real air travel for the masses, polio,the list of hardships goes on and on. I'd say to the young people of today be thankful for your parents giving you a life to live. What you make of it is up to you.
My 86 year old father tells me that the only good thing about the good old days is that they are gone, he tells me stories about growing up in outback towns, living in tin shacks, scorching heat, rarely fruit to eat, few sweets, lots of kids dying from diphtheria, everyone terrified of things like tetanus and Syphilis and old men drinking themselves to death because life had become unbearable . No phones, doctors that couldn’t be afforded for most, my grandfather worked putting in fence posts until he was 72 and just went home and died one night, his youngest child was raised by the orphanage because all the other children in the family were struggling to keep themselves alive and couldn’t care for a small child, there was no welfare, only charity provided by the church, things are much better now . I hope it doesn’t regress.
I need these people to understand that no one is saying you’re responsible for what your forefathers did, but acknowledge that you benefit from and continue to uphold the same system your forefathers built that disenfranchises others to this day. No one seems to like to talk about that.
I am here cracking up as a Carribbean of African descent this President is on point..🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣This is a great day in history.Are my eyes fooling me??????????..Look at the sufferring they've caused as a result of " Colonization."......Absolutely beautiful
Can't understand WHY CARBO DIOXIDE is so DANGEROUS.
TREES NEED CO2 in order to survive!!
It is dangerous because it is impossible to stop carbon emissions on a planet where all life is carbon-based. It is dangerous because the people of the world who are trying to keep their grip on power by any means necessary must have catastrophic enemies and disasters in order to maintain the splits between us that enable them to appear powerful and needed.. Instead of a Paris climate Accord, and a who, and gain of function research, and nuclear armed enemies,and communist activists would all probably look a lot different to us., and the leaders at he forefront of these a tual dangerous things would just look silly to us in their goofy outfits. And their outrageous pomp and circumstance. You have to confuse while you split the people and preoccupy their heads with nonsense that is hard to correct quickly and effectively without already agreeing in advance have a conversation , and a deep one that you don't want to evoke so publically in that it could feel like a rebuke. So, if you want reply to someone who is pushing for escalation literally, then by all means , I could
Reply to all who are out there making ridiculous claims that appear to point at, climate and CO2, ask them how they measure the average temperature of the Earth for a day? Then ask them how long has this method been used and what is the confidence level that your measurements over time are accurate enough to make the ohhhhn yeah
The whole thing is bullshit the earth will change regardless, the only thing I don't like is mass deforestation for mono crops as it's destroying bio diversity and throwing the natural cycle out of sync
But apart from that climate change thing is bullshit and is an agenda which probably going to add to some social credit and carbon tax to control your movement
Coastlines haven’t changed. That’s why elites. By beachfront property
The elites hope that not everyone is as smart as you, smart people are difficult to control!
