A moment on GB and Dan, Dan came out and issued what was clearly to me a hostage statement
written for him by a PR person at GB, very, very offended by your remarks in retrospect.
That's not Dan.
There's zero chance that was written by Dan.
He was trying to save his skin, I think, there.
I don't think it's going to work.
I expect that he's going to be fired probably today.
You released a text message in response between the two of you laughing about it after the
fact to prove Dan wasn't really offended and you didn't really appreciate the pile on.
Can things be okay between the two of you, do you think?
I want healing there because I think you're on the same side.
I speak to Dan every day.
He also told me that this is what he was going to do and I went, don't do it, Dan.
Don't do the hostage tweet.
It's a silly thing to do.
And I said, you can also apologize without throwing me under the bus.
More importantly and interestingly for him is that he's vulnerable, right?
He's not tough.
I've learned to be tough.
I've been taught to be tough by the circumstances I've experienced in life.
Dan isn't tough.
He's a brave guy, but he's not a tough guy.
And he has experienced the stuff that he's been forced to do to kind of apologize and
capitulate to this appeasement mob that GB News has become is really sad for him.
But I speak to him every single day.
I go, listen, man, this is going to emancipate you.
We're going to find a place and he's going to do everything he can to save his skin.
But when he phoned me up and he said, I've got to send this tweet and I've got to apologize
and I'm going to throw you under the bus.
I said, listen, and without being homophobic, Dan, you're a gay guy.
You don't have two children to feed.
I do.
So I have an extra level of stuff that I've got to deal with that you don't have to deal
with.
And I am loyal to you.
I was loyal to you when the byline times came out after you.
I was loyal to you and I'm loyal to my friends.
And I try and be one of these people in life who walks the walk as well as talking the
talk.
And sometimes I talk the talk way too much, but at least I walk the walk.
And I really I have huge compassion for Dan.
I love him.
I think he's a courageous, courageous reporter.
I think to come out in the British media landscape and do what he's done is incredible.
And I think that the treatment he's going to get possibly is is a mistake for him because
you don't, if they're going to walk you to the guillotine and cut your head off, you
should do so with your head held high.
You shouldn't do so groveling and begging for them not to kill you.
And I think that's his one mistake.
But I speak to him every day and I love him.
I like, you know, I'm commanded to love people, right?
So I love him.
I have no beef with Dan.
I have much more beef with the people above who are using him as a weapon and who are
using, you know, and who want to take over the British media landscape.
I'm very, very, very curious about people like Paul Marshall and where they come from
and stuff like that, you know, but Dan is a truly good guy.
They've lost their mission.
I mean, Roger Ailes, when you got in trouble at Fox, he had your back.
He would stand up to anybody.
He would never let the outside, especially not leftists, come in and decapitate his staff.
That just wasn't what he would do.
He would throw himself in the line of fire and he would take the bullets for you.
This is one of the reasons why so many people feel such deep affection for him, including
yours truly.
You know, it's all documented in any event.
Now what?
Because I heard you say on the show and elsewhere, you're starting to wonder whether you can
stay in Great Britain.
Like you're, you're starting to get like a little scared about what your future looks
like there.
Can you expand on that?
Well, I am scared of this country.
I took a very strong stand during COVID lockdowns.
I announced every Friday night that I was having a party for everyone who wanted to
come, which may or may not be irresponsible, but that's what I thought might as well be
honest.
Um, I've noticed a real ramping up in the rhetoric against me, you know, in this situation
now I'm facing a conspiracy charge, you know, and conspiracy is serious.
So, uh, I, for me, what I'm going to do is I'm going to go and walk up a mountain with
the person who backs me and who wants my voice in the conversation and we're going to discuss
Yeah.
And I think that the conversation I'm going to have is have we lost and is this country
now an airport hotel for migrants where they, where the local people are impoverished, unable
to support their own families and migrants, uh, put in hotels or in really lovely, beautiful
hotels.
Where the local people are treated like SH1T.
And so I will walk up a mountain tomorrow with him because that's, he lives near a mountain
and we, we walk this mountain frequently together and we will work out whether we've lost and
we will come back down from the mountain and work out whether we lost.
Because I don't think what I think is so fascinating about the American response to this is like
yeehaw, fuck them.
You know, it's like, good for you, say your stuff.
But in the UK, we basically, I've said this before and I will say it again.
We are not a democratic, secular, liberal democracy.
We are a country attached to a socialist healthcare system, which takes £170 billion a year to
fund.
And that is without subsidy, 70% of the UK tax burden.
So I pay my taxes and I am not, I can't get an appointment to see a national health service
doctor.
I watch people die on waiting lists.
We have the record.
We have 7.9 million people waiting on waiting lists in the belief that the socialist system
will save them.
It won't.
So I'm wondering and worrying whether the UK has fallen totally.
And I would like to explore the idea of what exists outside of it, you know, and, but you
know, I can't because of my bail conditions, innit?
Right.
You would, you would, if you weren't going to be in prison, you're not going to get be
in prison.
I would like to recommend the United States to you.
We're not quite where you guys are.
We do have the beautiful first amendment, which sadly many young people want to get
rid of and don't believe in.
But the vast majority of Americans still do, though it's not what it used to be.
You can still say what you want over here.
The cancellation war is losing.
They are losing.
Okay.
It's happening.
Autumn's settling in.
The Christmas decorations have already made their appearance in corner after corner.
I don't know about your neighborhood, but I've already seen them.
