Sorry Dr Starkey I'm still voting Reform as I fully agree with what you say however I doubt its this party that will do any of it, what you say is not a revelation has been widely know by these people but they chose to be Blairites, closet Marxists/socialists, woke liberals and just general misanthropes and cant be trusted, their manifestos like labours are not worth the paper they are printed on and the sly political games they play are infuriating and very telling of their quality as people and their moral bankruptcy. Of course it would be a whole other paragraph to mention the widespread corruption that both parties seem to indulge themselves in while writing laws to make it legal so they can just laugh at the public. Put bluntly Dr Starkey a political party can only piss in folks pockets and tell them that its raining for so long and I think their time is up, and labours is coming to an end all in good time. Sorry if it seems as I am ranting but this is how I feel and I have nothing against you.
The party known as the Conservatives in the U. K. is not conservative . If we did have a genuinely conservative party then maybe we would not be in our present difficulties .
Dr. Starkey always impresses me with his wisdom, knowledge, clarity and honesty. I feel the UK is in a profound mess and we need people like him, if not in office but at least as advocates.
Same here. Switched to Reform from the Tories at the election after voting for them all my life. I won't be switching back. Cannot trust the Tories now whoever they elect as leader. Vote Reform at every opportunity 🇬🇧
The conservatives have to say WHY they made mistakes not what the mistakes they made. The whole country can say what they did wrong but just could not understand why, when it was so obvious.
REFORM SHOULD ALLOW DAVID STARKEY TO AUTHOR A GREAT REPEAL BILL AND PUT IT IN THEIR CONTRACT. YES I AM SHOUTING. BRITAIN *HAS* TO DE-BLAIR BEFORE PARLIAMENT IS REDUCED TO AN INCONSEQUENTIAL TALKING SHOP.
@@SamRoberts-ng3pu Although I respect Dr Starkey his nostalgia for the Tories and it's history is preventing him from facing reality and accepting Reform is the true Conservative Party.
UK needs to convince the people to abandon socialism. The idea that austerity is when the government doesn't have enough of your money. The idea that healthcare is free, that housing is the government's responsibility, the idea that everyone should get " universal credits." Censorship, state media, Net Zero, DEI, the War and Poor Party need to go. A new Great Remonstance is needed.
I will never vote Conservative again util they introduce ALL of Sir David Starkey's recommendations. All Blaire's disgraceful modifications to our constitution need to be removed. Reform do not have the experience to do it and the rest of the parties do not have the will.
The right has to unite behind one party. At the moment we are divided and leaderless. I agree with everything Sir David says I've been waiting for years to hear someone say it. There is choice for the Conservative Party. Is it a party of constitutional freedom or is it another perceived branch of the authoritarian uni-party? At the moment it is not clear.
Can we have an honest and critical discussion on Islam? After every jihad attack "nothing to do with peaceful Islam" or "a perversion of a peaceful religion" etc. Labour and Conservative PMs have failed to face the truth. Failed to be honest.
Not only ideologically driven, but scared witless now. They will depend on the Muslim vote who will eventually install a Muslim majority government. The orchestrated influx continues aided and abetted by Labour, Lib Dems, many Tories, Greens and SNP.
Vote Reform UK and bring in a total change of governance in our lovely country that is being degraded by the three main parties of Liebour and liberal Dumercrats and Conn servatives its time to join Reform UK and Reform UK to freedom of corruption and lies of the three main parties, hopefully you all will have a change of mind. 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴👍
Vote Reform if you want an actual reformed country, and no I don't want conservative with a small c which is basically saying Labour but in blue, I want conservative with a big and loud C
Yes the definition of insanity is repeating the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. The Torys have had plenty of chances and completely betrayed us. It's unforgivable what they have done. I will never forget it.
I've finally understood what Prof. Starkey meant when he said that Blair/Brown had re-engineered democracy to protect minorities from the majority. He meant that under law, minorities would have privileges that the wider population would be denied. Two Tier Kier is using the system which New Labour installed in our constitution with the Equalities Act. This Act does the opposite of what it claims: it makes all men unequal before the law. Gordon Brown did not trust democracy to deliver his plan for a socialist utopia, so he created the conditions which would deliver a socialist government by the back door, which could not be removed. It’s a form of political sublimation. Socialism always fails, but in our parliamentary system we could eject those who created the failure, but now we can’t. Now we have all the trappings of Soviet socialism within the quangos of the civil service by stealth. So we are seeing all the convolutions of a socialism/statism overlayed on a population that hasn’t agreed to it and still believe that their vote counts. Instead of creating their utopia, they’ve instead created a form of apartheid which they can only manage by the use of force by putting anyone in prison who aligns with what amounts to state created tribalism. Essentially it’s already falling apart and I’d fully expect for the degree of statism to get increasingly worse as it becomes apparent to everyone that force is now the only currency on the table.
Great analysis. Chimes perfectly with my own conclusions. I've also recently discovered the work of Thomas Sowell. He's well worth seeking out if you're not aware of him.
Would you mind putting that in quotations and referencing your source - that would be the polite thing to have done. I’m happy to see my words copied and pasted, it would be nice to have them recognised.
It’s simple. We know what a Conservative Party ought to stand for but you have to implement those policies. Whether you will get the chance to try is uncertain the electorate have been so badly let down.
@13:07 I'd like for the Conservatives become a footnote in history as they seem to have missed the message of the last few elections. IMO, the message has been loud and clear, "LISTEN TO US from the bottom of the heap". All the panel members seem to either come from or belong to the upper middle class who know what's best for us little worker bees - in that I also include David Starkey, he certainly doesn't belong to us lower classes any more. At the moment (Oct 24), there are only 5 people in Parliament representing the Great Unwashed like me and thee - and that's Reform UK and I don't think the Tories have the wherewithal to enable them to connect to any other community, certainly the little worker bees up and down the country.
Wondered about the wonderful Dr David Starkey being on question time. Thought it was the BBC. So grateful it's not. My worry is that the opposition to Labour is not strong due to Reform but I do support the Reform MPs.
Need to hear David's thoughts on Homeland. Reform is a dog whistle to maintain the status quo ala UKIP. The nationalist right is rising and David giving some thoughts on Homeland and Patriotic Alternative would be helpful.
"...welfare should be provided at subsistence levels for a temporary period..." I agree. Although I'm barely surviving at the moment, and I'm not receiving welfare, people shouldn't expect long term handouts from the government. Short term handouts at minimum levels so one can eat, wash and sleep. Hopefully the recipient is pounding the pavement or learning a trade.
I've got a slogan. "Only meritocracy to the top." Unadulterated meritocracy is the only way we win. No more academic snobbery, because the evidence clearly shows highly educated box tickers have failed spectacularly.
Living in terror Under this despicable man, the slid into tyranny has begun ✋️ his master plan, and his crimes against humanity to all vulnerable groups, i have long-term mental problems, a shadow of my former self, underweight, still having nightmares, waking up COLD! shivering in a pool of my own sweat, then wasked out for days
one of the things which bears being said by conservatives is "a vast proportion & possibly the most important part of the nation's wellbeing arises out of the determination, moral choices, self discipline & creativity of its people, not from government".
For the life of me and don't know how anyone could vote for labour or Tory. The hatred I have for labour though has put me in the position that I will shun anyone who voted for labour. I take it personally that they have destroyed my country.
How do you implement this using the Conservative Party given the control of the one nationers. The one nationers, even if they lost control would vote against key elements of your proposed measures. It simply can't be done with them in place and you can't remove them. So Reform is the only vehicle.
Basically...LOOK AFTER the working people..look at how much an average house with say 2 bedrooms is NOW (in2024!) in the South East of England... £250000 PLUS!
I have the greatest respect for David’s intellect, but shall never agree with his views on REFORM. After 14 years of truly awful ‘conservative’ incompetence, and a devastating 100 days or so of the worst so-called ‘government’ in recent memory, apparently lead by the worst alleged ‘prime minister’ in British history, there is no other realistic alternative. REFORM must be the choice from now on, at both local and national elections; ‘labour’ must never, ever be elected to Westminster again - ever. 👍🇬🇧👍🇮🇱👍🇬🇧👍🇮🇱👍🇬🇧👍
With respect unless we bring in legislation to abandon many of R laws we R finished but if R country with its 1/000 year island history is 2 go down let us fight 4 it lets not leave it 4 others come on let's fight back
Spot on. There is no mechanism to get rid of this current government. Even the King cannot do it without the permission of the Prime Minister due to our crappy constitutional laws. Thank you muchly for confirming I have understood correctly.
The working man/ woman wants basic pay rights...for example Only £1500 can be GIVEN in a tax year to siblings or others...THIS has NOT CHANGED since 1982! When one could BUY flat for £10000! Stamp Duty..£250000...what can one BUY say in Norfolf..for that price NOW (in 2024)? Wages..blue colour workers are earning (if in GOODemployment) £40-45k plus) but STILL unable to save.. Tax threshold NEEDS to be raised...to above £20000 I left the British Army in 2010 and had a max payout on my pension on AFPS75 (Armed Forces Pension 1975) of £48500 (give or take) and I am stating this because I am justifying my comment...with inflation of average 3% for 15 years..that payout is now nearly £79000..people's earnings are NOT being matched..EVEN IFVones parents have a house to give you..they have to live 7 years!! Then one has to pay death duty..or pay tax on a property over and above what ones parents paid (when they paid a mortgage..on a wage they had (ALREADY) paid tax on anyway...
I've always thought "the pursuit of happiness" is such a pathetic, self-defeating goal to set as a national priority, One might as well proclaim: "Let's amuse ourselves to death". But the quip about decadence, it's also been attributed to Oscar Wilde.
Bitcoin takes back control and decentralises it. You need to spend time researching Bitcoin to understand how it's got so big and how it will be the reforming measure of all human values in the future.
I'm pleasantly surprised that this was not the biased, Left-wing, BBC version of Question Time. Of course, Dr. Starkey has better things to do with his time.
A cat amongst the pigeons. This should be worth watching for once! I’m pleasantly surprised, this wasn’t the usual left wing version of QT! Thank goodness! I can watch without throwing my slippers at the TV.
Don’t just look to correct the New Labour constitutional changes, start to argue the moral case for capitalism as individual freedom, not purely as an engine to ‘lift all boats’ . As long as capitalism is shackled to the needs of the poor, the moral argument will always be one by the socialists. As long as selfishness is regarded as bad, collectivism will always triumph.
For saying he is meant to be a historian, Starkey is such a completely and utterly stupid and ignorant man. Listen to his comments objectively, they are completely vacuous.
You really are missing the whole point here aren't you! Starkey never debates anybody, all he ever does is spout his mindless rubbish without ever justifying it. But at meetings like this, he doesn't have to justify anything does he! . Look at the panel here at the POP CON conference, all the other speakers are completely of a like mind, as are all the audience! Listen to what the panelists say,.......they all agree with each other, ......there is NO DEBATE. The Pop Con lot are about as far right as you can get in the Tory Party, i.e. somewhere to the right of poor old Lizzie Truss! They are all simply a bunch of right wing extremists who live in the same echo chamber! I'd just love to see Starkey in a debate with seasoned journalists, or modern historians, or anyone with a basic common sense. It's Starkey who would be 'floored' with his unsubstantiated gibberish!
@@ManofTruth999 “Modern historians”? You mean people who think Britain has been a multicultural country for hundreds of year? It’s only a matter of time before they try to credit the Space X Starship breakthrough to multiculturalism.
@@ManofTruth999 the only way out of the utter disaster that is facing this country under two tier Starmer is a right wing government. The Tories have tried being a mish mash of left of center and soft right and it failed. But as usual the socialists will run out of money and the Conservatives will have to clean up the mess. It will be history repeating itself just as it has done so many times before. My point is that as you accused him of spouting mindless rubbish why don't you debate him and prove it. I'm sure he won't mind.
@@ManofTruth999 You cannot understand Starkey because you are thick. There is nothing to challenge in what he said - he is simlly pointing out reality and historical truth - and no woke modern historian could ever come close to challenging Starkey. Now take your grotesque racism and your vile leftist filth elsewhere.
Tories will do nothing for young generations. Triple lock needs to go. We also need more incentives for having kids. Focus of the party shound not be boomer pandering
Britain has the lowest pensions in Europe. Blame the central banks and their fetish for printing money and pumping asset prices for the reason you can’t afford a house.
It’s not. The UK has one of the worst state pensions in the world. The boomers suffered rationing and rebuilt Britain after WW2 for the next generations. You.

As long as capitalism is shackled to the needs of the poor, the moral argument will always be one by the socialists. As long as selfishness is regarded as bad, collectivism will always triumph.
Diversity of everything but opinion that's our tax funded BBC for you 😑
She doesn't seem up to the job....
Same old bs from the con
For saying he is meant to be a historian, Starkey is such a completely and utterly stupid and ignorant man. Listen to his comments objectively, they are completely vacuous.
You could always debate him and prove your point but I think you're going to get a kicking.
You really are missing the whole point here aren't you! Starkey never debates anybody, all he ever does is spout his mindless rubbish without ever justifying it. But at meetings like this, he doesn't have to justify anything does he! . Look at the panel here at the POP CON conference, all the other speakers are completely of a like mind, as are all the audience! Listen to what the panelists say,.......they all agree with each other, ......there is NO DEBATE. The Pop Con lot are about as far right as you can get in the Tory Party, i.e. somewhere to the right of poor old Lizzie Truss! They are all simply a bunch of right wing extremists who live in the same echo chamber! I'd just love to see Starkey in a debate with seasoned journalists, or modern historians, or anyone with a basic common sense. It's Starkey who would be 'floored' with his unsubstantiated gibberish!

“Modern historians”? You mean people who think Britain has been a multicultural country for hundreds of year? It’s only a matter of time before they try to credit the Space X Starship breakthrough to multiculturalism.
@@ManofTruth999 the only way out of the utter disaster that is facing this country under two tier Starmer is a right wing government. The Tories have tried being a mish mash of left of center and soft right and it failed. But as usual the socialists will run out of money and the Conservatives will have to clean up the mess. It will be history repeating itself just as it has done so many times before. My point is that as you accused him of spouting mindless rubbish why don't you debate him and prove it. I'm sure he won't mind.
@@ManofTruth999 You cannot understand Starkey because you are thick. There is nothing to challenge in what he said - he is simlly pointing out reality and historical truth - and no woke modern historian could ever come close to challenging Starkey.
Now take your grotesque racism and your vile leftist filth elsewhere.
Tories will do nothing for young generations.
Triple lock needs to go.
We also need more incentives for having kids.
Focus of the party shound not be boomer pandering
Britain has the lowest pensions in Europe.
Blame the central banks and their fetish for printing money and pumping asset prices for the reason you can’t afford a house.
It’s not. The UK has one of the worst state pensions in the world. The boomers suffered rationing and rebuilt Britain after WW2 for the next generations. You.
