David Starkey is absolutely right when he says that names of those responsible must be made public and they must be held accountable, just as Soldiers and Post Office managers have!
Post office is a kick the can charade... only the lawyers get rich ...
homework ! let’s become moderators of society just like we had for exams at school
It is hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who pay no price for being wrong. - Thomas Sowell
I've never disagreed with anything he said and this is especially true.
It is hard to imagine a more stupid or more dangerous way of making decisions than by putting those decisions in the hands of people who get richly rewarded for being completely wrong over and over and over. - CK
American, but often in the UK....the real problems began under Cameron. Aside from the Iraq War (not a small thing), times were good under Blair and Brown. Cameron and Brexit, not New Labour, are the cause of the current problems.
@@MichaelCorner-l7o If you remember, there was much talk back then, about the wide swings of the economic cycles. This was referred to as ‘Boom - Bust cycles’ which New Labour wanted to end. The man in the street enjoyed the benefits of the Boom part of the cycle which happened as normal. Blair then got rid of the Boom part of the cycle. I blame much on the LSE which teaches a warped, ideological and erroneous form of PPE. At best, Blair can be called a well intentioned fool as virtually everything he’s done has made things worse than before.
It is equally stupid and dangerous to put complex issues in the hands of the general public in a referendum when they have no idea of what they are voting for and the consequences.
The evil that was perpetrated on David’s career in an attempt to silence him, has had the incredible benefit in that his wisdom now reaches the ordinary people who are usually denied such wisdom in our daily lives. Thanks Dave !!
Starkey just nailed it! Brillant.
Agreed, but why is he wasting his time with the lost cause of the Tory party?
Terrific stuff from David Starkey, as always. He is very intelligent and very interesting.
The opposite of Diversity is... Unity.
Look at all the nation's who left the empire and became independent...almost all chose a national motto with "unity" as a component...not one chose "diversity". Examples include :Tanzania (freedom and unity), Nigeria (unity and faith, peace and progress)....etc
@@golfbulldog Kenya: ... May we dwell in *unity*, peace and liberty ...
@@frankyyaggabot6222 yes, one can track a South to North pattern of unity through these nations. Zambia has a good one : "one Zambia, one nation" emphasises unity rather than multiculturalism. South Africa had a series of mottos, moving from "Union is strength" to "unity is strength" (some irony for an apartheid state 😄) and now, after translation, has "diverse people unite" which literally shows that diversity is subordinate to unity.
Botswana is an outlier and has the word "Pula" as a motto which apparently means "Rain"...
Zimbabwe gets us back on form with "Unity, work, freedom".
No, the opposite of diversity is being homogeneous, which would naturally bring unity, as it did prior to the mess of mass immigration.
I'm bathing in David's rhetoric, truths and wisdom.

I wish I had been taught History at uni by him. Went to London though 😢 Gower street Liberals
I, like a great many other people, am a great admirer of Dr Starkey. His knowledge of our history and constituion is second to none, and his ability to explain is erudition itself. Unfortunately for the Tories, but fortunately for the patriots and conservatives amongst us, I believe the fate of the Conservative Party is irretrievable lost. 14 years of complete let down is more than enough for me. Can we ever trust them again whosoever becomes leader? Now there is a "new kid on the block" in the form of the Reform Party (the real popular conservatives), we don't need to!
I Love Dr Starkey! I wish he would come to the states and give talks!
I like how he uses other Countries like here in America and our system to address the British or UK system. Like how he talks about not having a Federal or British Union district or having a separate English Parliament from the UK's. Its like DC becoming a State and keeping Congress as there State Legislator.
Starkey, ...... absolutely terrible man. A person who truly hates Britain and wants to turn it back to Victorian times and values. Oddly,....a historian who has never learned anything from history! Like you, chases.williams 6025, I would love for him to go to the United States ........and stay there for ever. This entity is a total embarrassment to the United Kingdom!! Every time he opens his mouth, complete trash falls out. Please keep him!

Big love to our cousins over the pond.
No point paying attention to the bloke who doesn't understand ellipses.

Brilliant! This should be widely heard.

Excelled as usual.. David is correct, so glad we have his knowledge..been listening to David since 1990..
Brilliant
Sharia law was first introduced in 1982 unofficially. Then officially endorsed in 2008. Conservatives introduced Sharia bonds in 2013. Was any of it debated in parliament?
Just like Toledo the gates were opened from the inside
Got '08/'13..1982 ? Please
@@Jaymark-gk4li 1982 was when the first Sharia councils formed in the UK. Coinciding with the Falklands Conflict, and so hardly was noticed. I would need to search back to where I found the info.
@Hellish2050 cheers its what I'd thought tbh..but yes, slipped it in , 🍻
@@Jaymark-gk4li I can't post links but if you do a search for "sharia councils uk 1982" you get this: "The Islamic Sharia Council (ISC) was established in 1982 to help Muslims in the UK deal with personal matters, such as marriage, divorce, and inheritance, using Islamic family law. The ISC is a registered charity and is not a formal court of law. It only deals with the Islamic Nikah marriage ceremony, not civil marriage contracts." That sounds tolerable, but if you look into Nikah Halala based on Koan 2:230 you can see haw disgusting these practices really are. The BBC did a documentary about it.
I would absolutely love to have a glass of wine with this man.
Would you kiss his ring? 😂
Me too...he is a national treasure with a brilliant historical/political mind. Sadly a dying breed.
his brain is what I Seek..❤😊

You're obsessed with rings, every comment ..... bizarre.
Maybe 'the lady doth protest too much' 😆
@@charliekane135 prove it
Spot on David, glad we have an historian,with Common sense & wisdom.
We used to have the intellectual elite in parliament. The problem today across all parties is that we have incapable people. Boris, Starmer, Sunak, Truss etc. Look at Labour's front bench! This week I held my head in my hands, Badenoch and Jenrick!! How awful. Surely in this country we can find one, just one capable leader.
It's corrupt people who act contrary to the interests of the people across all parties.
David quite likes Jenrick - or at least what he is saying these days.
Everything you speak about is very interesting. Please continue to voice this out.
The uk people loosing out to generations of deceitful politicians. Things have to change.
We need the Magna Carta restoring and updated.
You enjoy having Norman barons ruling over you and turning your family into serfs?
Yes but Dr Starkey is the only person i would trust to undertake it.
Have you read the Magna carta?
Common Law perhaps, a reset yes indeed.
And the English Bill of Rights, and others.
I don’t think the people who are new to this country would like that. It’s their country now.
I was so, so very tired of the Conservatives (who did nothing conservative in their 14 years) and almost relieved when Labour won the last elections...
But when I look at them now, I can't but wonder what is wrong with these people... what kind of authoritarian spirit do you have to have to suggest banning smoking in outside areas?
It might sound like a small, insignificant topic overall, but it shows you the direction of travel.
Labour do not trust that you make your own decisions. They want you to do what they think is right for you.
This is as anti-Western as it gets.
As Thatcher said so many years ago: "Socialists don't like ordinary people choosing, for they might not choose Socialism."
Socialists also like to control our money, they take it and give us back pocket money. Dreadful party, I’d never vote Labour, it’s a form of communism. Controllers. I hate them.
As always, sir, a brilliant talk.
Brilliant, just what i wanted to hear. Now go to it, just as David said, know your stuff be armed with knowledge and conviction. These have been woefully missing in the past 24 years. Finally stand up to the blob.
There can be no constitutional restoration without a social realignment.
Otherwise past mistakes will be repeated.
Yeah Starkey missed that point by quite a bit. It's all great to point out what Blair did to the inner workings of the state, but he was just formalizing the change in social attitudes that had already been implemented during the Thatcher era and before. Unless you go after the cause, changing the shape of the government isn't going to do anything.
what is needed is for these evil mps and officials to be held to account for all the grief and suffering they bring to the world...
This is also what went wrong with the Post Office scandal. All through the PO Inquiry witnesses explain how responsible their jobs were and how diligently they carried out their duties but they where never responsible for any of the things that went wrong.
I love David no B's and has fountain of knowledge well spoken wisdom
Dr Starkeys modest proposal for a great constitutiional reform act is gaining traction thankfully, the Parliamentary Leviathan should be unbound from the snares of Tony Blairs revolution and Gulliver like, stand upright once again. Meanwhile we should cast off the Laputian insanity of rule by experts who would have us extract sunbeams from cucumbers (carbon capture net zero) rather than keeping warm and keeping the lights on, and other Utopian follies. Bravo Dr Starkey.
Well said! we want our country back! People need to be educated in the English Constitution. Graham Moore of The English Constitution Party is an expert on the Constitution.
Superb talk, Sir David. Sharp, educated and inspirational. Well done.
I think it is time to heed the words of Thomas Jefferson - ‘a little rebellion now and then is a good thing’. The government has us bending over …. And we’re thanking them for it?! Sheer madness!
Yes, the MPs work for us the electorate, a manifesto is a promiss not a sound byte, and by breaking their word they should be sidelined, the have lied.
They should be prosecuted not just sidelined. These people only understand genuine consequences. The punishment for going against the people to aid billionaires and the US needs to be jail time
Technically they represent your interests, which may or may not be want you actually want.
Parliaments should be held regularly meaning every 3 years there must be elections. 5 years gives politicians too long to push changes that the people hate without being ousted.
David I love the way you articulate the truth - thank you 😍
Wonderful man - Dr David S
"The Rwandan Welshman".
Showed his comment to the UK, like many other newcomers to the British isles.
Unless the Tories fundamentally change - Reform is the only way forward.
Very right about the buildings there not inspiring to be in...in the past we had wooden carvings and stained glass etc
Re Patricia Hewitt's total failure with the GP's contract, I met the bloke from the BMA who was leading the negotiation. Hewitt made the offer and my blokey asked if the BMA's side could retire and discuss it, which Hewitt and her team agreed. They went into the adjoining room and my blokey immediately said, 'bite their arms off'. So they sat there for some time and then wandered back in and make a big show for reluctantly accept the offer.
I heard that as well. The BMA gave the DoH a wish list and were expecting to get less than half of it. New Labour just caved in and signed it off. The BMA couldn’t believe their luck. And, once they knew they could behave like that and get away with it, that has emboldened them ever since to hold us to ransom.
The great restoration has got to start somewhere. It starts with understanding where we are and why. Then an image of a plan can take shape. To restate Starkey, we must learn our history, from there we can get a clear image of where we need to go. Our history is not nostalgia, it is the roots of the country and the foundation of the future. Our history is the result of a political enterprise of the day. History framed in a political context, provides clarity for the contemporary political environment.
Absolutely fantastic! David Starkey gets to the root of all the problems we are facing now. Without understanding what they are, politicians will carry on making decisions upon a failing system imposed by Blair that destroyed everything that gave the UK strength.
It's always such a pleasure to listen to this highly intelligent historian with the deep understanding of politics throughout the ages. Awesome. Thank you for having such a treasure as a guest.
Dr Starkey it was Benjamin Franklin that said if you exchange freedom for security you deserve neither.
David has verbalised what I have believed. Recent governments have set the UK on a path of sectarianism in its future. Similar to what happen in Northern Ireland. Or if the projections of ethnic composition are correct, possibly a worse situation more akin to Sri Lanka.
A bit late perhaps, but opinion,ë David Starkey would make a first class Conservative leader
Britain needs a leader, not a career politician....
What knowledge, and wisdom, a treat to listen to thank you David .PLEASE KEEP IT UP
David Starkey's huge knowledge and powers of analysis are mind blowing.
We need more profound thinkers like him to lead the way!
More men that talk about the importance of learning and rethinking things.
I have recently noticed on the government's website that the petition section has been deactivated. The public can no longer start petitions to present to the government.
Read Eisenhower’s Farewell speech from 1961. He saw it coming then, and warned us against it. We failed to believe him.
Never knew about Eisenhower farewell speech 1961. I’ll find it - sounds like it might align with my core beliefs. If so I’ll print it off and pin it at work. People at work live conservative lives but vote for politicians diametrically opposed to these coworkers values. I don’t understand it😢
@@hildaburken4805 You can find it on UA-cam. He talks about being overtaken by a technocratic elite. Prescient, almost.
Mr Starkey putting words to what most people already understood, in a most eloquent manner.
Share X 10 to get this out there.
I fully agree about the GP night time service as the father of four children trying to get a doctor's appointment after very evaluated the contract was Virtually impossible
Awsome,starky is brilliant
Honour, Integrity, Vision, Responsibility, Accountability & above all Belief in the Nation. ... All are conspicuous by their absence!
David is a hero!!!❤😮
Awesome!
I hope conservative Central Office is listening to this and recording it.
We need the same thing here in Canada.
Rational, logical, sensible and reasonable.....Starkey.
A new written constitution and bill of rights is something I've thought we've needed for a long time
Thank you Dr Starkey for your absolutely brilliant informative video
A brilliant man ! Great
On the campaign: 'Let Our Children once again be Freeborn in a Free Country'.
Brillent keep up the good work
Very smart thinking forum there.
The Conservative Party just conserves Labour’s policies🤦🏻♂️
People paid to find a problem will never turn around and say there isn't one.
A new English Settlement please.
The Westminster system, the Windsors, and the Church of England have all failed.
German since the Hanovers.. Reinstate the English Monarch🏴
I would double like this if I could. fantastic.
Dr David Starkey nails it to the mast of HMS Britannia. A peaceful mutiny of refusal to give consent, comply and of holding politicians to account!
Many people are and have been conservative. Whatever you say about Reform, in particular with illegal immigration, many conservatives are continuing to support Reform
Politicians come and go, a bureaucracy is forever
Thanks to Starkey, I'm going to fill my bookcase with British, Dutch and New Zealand history (and more), the three nationalities of my daughter. I am going to pull together her family history. I grew up reading all about these topics, but I had no idea how much the education system has changed. I want my daughter to know her history and her identity, and not leave her to the mercy of schools which have so sadly isolated the last couple of generations from their own history. To know the history of your identity is to be proud if who you are and where you come from. And hopefully, to withstand the infiltration of self-hating westerners, as well as other bad actors trying to implode our societies from the inside out.
Britain needs a Christian revivaĺ❤
Our upper crust being bent as a 9 bob note is the root of most problems, but sure carry on.
Sold us out to Usury.
the middle class are the working classes real enemy & has been since the dawn of the victorian era.
The English Constitution is the solution (or Scottish for the Scots). Let's have a full Restoration.
ENGLISH Constitution is under English Common LAW🏴
🏴is under Roman LAW.
A royal confederation maybe
Good practical points on ministerial and government accountability in the House etc.
Wonderful sense of humour which assists to imbibe statements made
Why no question on The Reform party?
Very good
Diversity and unity reflect the whole fractal complexity we find in creativity and consistency. Substance and opportunity.
The modern issue is that an overdrive to realise diversity destabilises any unity. If it becomes too wide a discrepancy to balance, there will be no attempt. Divisions by land will replace the ineffective shoreline. Defending against fanatic industrialists comes from preserving a substance, a way of life that is not to be disturbed by their influences from abroad
The confusions of integration are laid bare in expectations. Integration begins when incomers assimilate. Hostility arises when it is the islanders asked to adjust to immigrants needs. Things a migrant should consider before leaving the homeland that sustains them.
In some way immigration is being paid for. Someone is giving migrants enough means to begin moving.
We need Starkey for PM, I think,. Restore our Constitution.
Another single issue committee that comes to mind is the IPCC.
I've only watched five and half minutes of this! And the words spoken by this guy is the most f'n common sense i've heard in a long time!! i've waited for to long to hear these words spoken out loud in a main stream arena. Well Done you!
I shall come back to this and enjoy the rest of common sense after my tea! 😊
VOTE REFORM
I was wrong: I voted Labour for decades, until I realised why I love David Starkey.
David should run for Prime Minister hed have my vote if I lived in the UK
Great to listen to
Nurse, the screens!!!
Haha. I’ve been saying exactly this for years! Begone Cromwell! Let the party begin again, this time in earnest!
Amen to that!
Cromwell was a far better leader than bumbling Starmer, he looks like a court jester but not as funny as
Dr S, we need you in no.10.
Great stuff i need to convice my son
make this man the advisor to the next conservative PM
UNFORTUNATELY I DON'T BELIEVE WE'RE READY TO DO WHAT'S NECESSARY AND REMOVE THE PSYCHOPATHS IN CHARGE FROM POWER PERMANENTLY..... THAT MUST HAPPEN BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE
I feel so sorry for David Starkey. He has had to live in such a mind numbingly stupid world. I’m only 27 & am already bored to tears. He must have the patience of a saint.
As someone who is not a smoker and doesn't want to be exposed to second hand smoking against my own will, I regard smoking as others imposing harmful substances on me. We should allow places to ban smoking on and around their premisesl
David Starkey should be the new party leaders Merlin.
Regardless of his intelligence and his lifetime of honours he's got something that IQ and money can't buy.
Common sense
A rare thing in this day and age.😊
The Jolly Heretic has been listening to David and has uploaded a vid giving his own talk on this subject.
One thing I dislike is centralised political parties which decide candidates for constituencies. Local Labour and Conservative clubs used to contribute funds and have more choice in candidates. Local participation in politics was also encouraged by omission of party affiliation in voting forms. This meant more door to door canvassing and local enthusiastic supporters advertising "vote Labour vote Wilson" in their windows and gardens. (Substitute party and candidate as appropriate). 51:46
Mr Starkey points with his finger and says 'you' as he seems to condemn The Good Friday Agreement.
He should be, doctor sir David. No chance of that in starmars' Britain.
