Unaffordable housing, immigration, over population, climate crisis lies, outsourcing of jobs to foreign countries, wasting of taxpayers money, giving away taxpayers money to other countries, getting rid of manufacturing, incompetent MPs, - all major factors that no leaders want to get a grip on.
We do not have any leaders capable of ever making a difference, for to become a politician you must lie cheat and only be doing it for your own personal gain. not the qualities of a good person,
Just my opinion, but I think overpopulation is a brain child of the "climate change" narrative. It's true that we try to pack way too many people in too small an area, but the Earth itself is not over populated. There is so much uninhabited land, poor and non-use/managment of resources, and we are always looking at the problem from what we see in overcrowded areas under the management of corrupt people. We are over-run by basic stupidity & selfishness, then on top of that, we are ruled by those who hate humanity and want the Planet for themselves alone, so they are unwilling to use solutions that would benefit everyone. They see mankind as being like themselves - unruly, unmanageable and uncompromising, so in that context the unmanageable numbers of people are "over populated' because they can't control them, and most are under rogue &/or selfish governments like China, North Korea & Russia, who, like India, don't give a hoot about their climate change agenda. In fact, almost none of the non-white nations care about any claims of climate catastrophe.
Well, if what they are saying is true, it's that the leader CANT get a grip on it. The civil service has hamstrung the whole system. The civil service needs removing or declawing.

I was once a person who would always follow the political process and current politics. For about 10 to 15 years now my belief has been challenged in any political party. It becomes obvious that all of them have no interest whatsoever in any of the important issues that affects the average family. Policies are now about making the rich richer. I can’t remember the last time any current government made a change for the benefit of the people who actually pay their wages. Taxes increase, infrastructure gets worse, education is terrible and governments make shocking decisions. I have no trust in government from any level. 😮
It's not the politicians. The electorate DEMAND that they are lied to. They do not vote for politicians who tell the truth. Many countries have been living beyond their means (ie gov't expenditure exceeds income) for over a decade. Any political party that said 'We need to do less. We will offer fewer services, a slimmer health service, no more free-this and free -that' would be wiped out. So far the only electorate which has 'seen the light' is Argentina.

The greatest evolution of the climate change religion here in Australia has been and continues to be driven by local governments (public service). This ideology has taken the place of traditional western religions within our communities where there may have been a vacuum of common traditional community purpose. It is understandable then that a ‘new’ activism, one which on face value requires no single adherence to a religion or anything other than ‘a common cause’ should emerge.
Climate change is a non issue designed to use up lots of time and money for no guaranteed result. It allows politicians to appear to care [about the planet] while not solving actual real time problems. A colossal waste of time and money….
It's not free to tourists unless it's an emergency. Even Brits have to pay if they have been out of the country more than 6 months. Why it's free to immigrants even before they receive right to remain is baffling.
@@adoremus4014 Yes, but there are many foreigners in British hospitals being treated at huge expense, and when the NHS managers try to get them to pay the bills, they say they can't afford it! Many of them don't have any money at all. But we can't just stop treating them, because that would be against their human rights. So in reality many of them are getting it for free. There was a programme about this on BBC radio about 5 years ago. (Surprised they broadcast it to be honest).
@@ajs41 The rules changed in October 2017. Some countries have reciprocal healthcare agreements with the UK so the treatment is free. But non-urgent treatment now requires signing a 'Undertaking to Pay', otherwise they are denied treatment until they can pay. If the treatment is urgent, legally the NHS has to offer it free of charge if they cannot pay.
😂 Australia is becoming a woke left wing, we won't be far behind, but economy wise we are better because China buy iron/coal from Australia,but now they re switch to African core , just wait until it happens
Lets not kid ourselves here, any normal country would have no problem simply building more houses. Immigrants are the straw that broke the camels back. Ask yourself why old people have temper tantrums when an high density housing is built nearby them, and that should answer your question. Were right now paying for the older generations retirement.
Sounds familiar……. they upped immigration coming out of the pandemic into Australia and now rent and house prices are outrageous. Not fair for the people here nor the people coming here.

We are reading from the same script in the uk. My current wage would’ve been seen as a great wage about 4 years ago, now it’s barely enough to survive on.
Immigration rn makes me mad. Its so wierd how so many people are from ONE SPECIFIC REGION from ONE SPECIFIC COUNTRY. And their not even the smart Indians either. Their all from Punjab, not any of the places the smart indians from.
If we want to have a society of less children we need to commit to that and make it work. There are many positives to having a smaller population too. What's not helpful is importing foreign cultures to breed for us and then complaining when they don't think like us. We are just cutting our own throats.
If people started to have fewer children & we stopped importing labour from abroad we would have an increased aging population being supported by a decreasing workforce/tax payers.
@@normanlazarus1836 yes l'm sure countries like Switzerland, Cleland, Scandinavia, Singapore they are all doing it very tough with their low populations.
I qualified as a nurse in 1977. Working 43 yrs in healthcare mostly in emergency care but i did community and ward work. During that time i became really good at assessing people. What i found without exception was the most selfish patients and sometimes staff were those that never had children. I think its common knowledge in healthcare. So not having children does impact on our society in more ways than them just being tax payers. But Konstantin is right my son and his finance want children but housing and child care isnt affordable . Hopefully it will change for them but none of us are confident it will. Ive had 3 children i worked i studied and run a home during this time. You dont get Xmas off necessarily in healthcare. My children sre resilient and hardworking wonderful human beings now with their own families. Stop the victimhood
Stopping the victimhood will require re-education, or educating a new generation into an attitude of responsibility, rather than the opressor/oppressed dynamic, which is now the context in which everything lives, in the minds of the current generation.

The role of politician is never to be honest from the historical books to current academia go read what they teach for politics then you will understand why they will never be honest and honest politicians are not politicians they're called problem solvers Only problem solvers are honest as honesty and self reflection is requirement to solve many problems Role of politicians is to manage people aka society with deceits and power the usual Machiavellian mantra
Mean age of Australians; 38. Europeans; 44. Mean distance from Australia to the Asian mainland; 4,000 miles. Europe from Africa? 8! Average salary of Doctors in Australia; $100,000; Doctors in Europe? 50-80,000. Population density in Europe; 468 people per mi2. Australia ? 3. It is not a fair comparison to compare a relatively young, vibrant unencumbered nation with illegal immigration with a youngish population to an aged, mature continent being flooded with illegal uncontrolable immigration and suffering the drain of highly-educated specialists to other areas of the World, and let's not even go onto the linguisitic and social arguments and challenges. Europe? Yes, we are in the s**t, but let's see Australia in 20-30 years, where they might themselves in the same boat.
Some points you make are irrelevant. For instance, population density. Australia is basically an archipelago of dense urbanisation, where 99% of land is a desert devoid of humans. It might as well be an ocean in demographic terms. More than 75% of people live in the biggest ten cities. There isn't really muchnof a rural or semi rural Australia, like that can be found in Europe. If you look at the habitable parts (where people are able to live, because there is water) of Australia, they are much closer to those of Europe. Also, immigration to Australia accounts for most of the difference in mean age between the two continents.

Who voted for Klaus Swab? All these people are out of our control but governments have handed power. Labour about to make it worse.
I like the part where he said about being a parent drives you to become a better person and that entire segment. Ive had no idea about that untill 2 years ago when I became a parent and this is a first time Ive ever heard of this, because this is how I feel since a year ago
Thanks again gents! I guess I'm old school now, but what a great approach you have to discussing the issues that matter. A listener can listen, learn and formulate, or begin to forrmulate an opinion. So difficult to get informative media discussion nowadays that's not clouded by emotion or agenda. The government should support families - it doesn't, and neither do the feministic impositions on family. A lot of young men (at least and maybe young women perhaps) nowadays are reluctant to embark on these relationships that end in acrimonious splits. Current Australian family laws don't encourage long term relationships - too much at risk. I don't mind saying either (at risk of being shouted down by someone), feminisim tends to dimish the role of males in parenting - speaking about maturing, postive male role models are essential for good healthy child development. There are many good fathers (male parents) out there that don't fit the feminist mold, but do a great job! Feminism undermines procreation and the legitmacy of family.
I’m Swedish and migrated to AUS 11 years ago. Takes time to get know Australia, it’s not what you think it is at a quick glance but I do think it’s one of the best options in the western world despite the housing crisis.
Imo its the US. But its hard to immigrate there. Australia is cucked. Listening to people like Friendly Jordies is kinda insane, cus the sheer corruption makes America look good. Especially the conservative corruption.
@6:00 Konstantin says that reform basically need to be as boring as Tories. I disagree. Political parties should have real people in them and not polished turds.
Yep, it's the basics of common sense, simple logic and reason that are being undermined. It's not the "big" stuff, like "climate change" or LGBTQ+-/*^$%#@ wanting to mutilate our kids, but the loss of basic honor, decency, and agreement on what should be obvious to everyone.
I am so impressed with Konstantin and his common sense approach to things. He really seems to look at all sides without prejudice. He and Jordan Peterson are my favorite intellects.
For some. All I’m gonna say is there’s a reason why we need so many immigrants to look after the Quiet and Boomer generation in their twilight years. It looks like their lovely kiddies aren’t so reciprocal when it comes on to taking on that “new level ” responsibility of caring for their parents. So perspective please.
It’s mind boggling, 500,000 lost troops on the Russian side. Now, these are two seemingly smart individuals. Where the f do they actually get their figures, one wonders ??

The cost of child care in the UK for one pre-school child is between £800 & £1000+ per calendar month. Both parents have to work to have an acceptable standard of living or become part of the non-working community that draws from the welfare state. Stay at home Mum's, or Dad's, who used to bring up the kids are a thing of the past unless you're very wealthy. Simply put, it's very expensive having children.
All round gerat conversation, as it usually is with Konstantin, just one caveat about the Ukraine negotiation point, the deal and concessions made have to be ones that Ukraine agrees to, the negotiations can’t be about Ukraine without Ukraine and although I fully agree that the current administration isn’t doing nearly enough, given Trumps track record with Ukraine and his supporter base I can’t imagine he would be particularly motivated to either get a good deal for Ukraine or to provide the “support with everything” option
"having a conversation" assumes people are still reasonable - use logic. Since the war on intelligence waged by "common core" education, that has all changed.
Fantastic video! I have incurred so much losses trading on my own....I trade well on demo but I think the real market is manipulated.... Can anyone help me out or at least tell me what I'm doing wrong??
Investing with an expert is the best strategy for beginners and busy investors, as most failures and losses in investment usually happen when you invest without proper guidance. I'm speaking from experience.
I have immense respect for John, who is definitely one of the good guys, but his assertion that Russia has lost 500.000 men is almost certainly false. The attrition rate is 10 to 1 on average, so if true would mean Ukrainian losses exceed 5 million - really? The best estimate from Douglas Macgregor ( the real expert, not given to Hyperbole ) is 550,000 Ukrainian dead and over One Million wounded. Russian losses, although heavy, are roughly one tenth of that. How can they both be duped by such a massive propaganda lie.........
illegal immigration, often under the disguise of asylum, messed up legal migration. outrageous real estate prices. bad job prospects outside of cities, riddiculous rents / house(flat) prices in cities. a society but especially political class and police force AFRAID to be perceived as racist for holding foreigners to the same standards as they hold locals to. we're reaching the collapsing point of many many pyramid schemes (social security, especially rents/pensions, real estate, education cost, especially the unnecessary academisation and many more) the perspectives are bad .. the entrance cost are insane .. OFC people are hesitant to start a family
Couldn’t agree more on the subject of not being completely mature as a human (sorry that’s a bit clumsy, can’t remember how you worded it), but I had my kids late in life, and that was my experience. It was a revelation that I would not have been able to explain to my younger self, let alone anyone else, nor would have appreciated someone telling me… without the experience, I’m not sure it can be told.
I love these conversations so much between the two of you. They are always so full of great ideas and wisdom. I too, think it is so important to sell the idea of family and children to young people- these are the things that give life meaning. But we have to make sure they can afford a house and afford to have children. At the moment the governments of the west seem to have everything upside down. They don't seem to care about the public at all.
Yes and John as someone who was high up in the lofty seat of power, what do we do about all this?? We know where the problems are but nothing changes. Just more consultant reviews and royal commissions.
As a French regular visitor to Britain for the last 40+ years, I've always found Britain much poorer and with a much older infrastructure than France. Further the cost of accommodation and transport has always been skyhigh. To be fair, I also think lower class people pay far less tax than in France
As a former resident of France I disagree vehemently with your statement. People are taxed to the hilt in France, your infrastructure isn't that good, bus services are non existent outside of Paris, your only good roads are very expensive TOLL roads . I never felt that France was richer than UK, just more socialist generally.
The truth about manufacturing and nation security is that the wealthy won't allow our politicians to do anything that will cost them money in either taxes or moving manufacturing back to higher cost centers.
Britain has the sixth biggest economy in the world. No. The City of London has the sixth biggest economy in the world and it has a very poor country attached to it.
Amen. The last 2 minutes of his speech were the highlight of my youtubé experience in last few years. What a remarkable guy that is.

The most meager participation in a UK general election was a mere 57.2% in the year 1918. This momentous election came in the wake of the Great War and the passage of the Representation of the People Act of 1918, a pivotal reform that greatly expanded the electorate, enfranchising women over the age of 30 and all men over the age of 21. One wonders if they shall bestow the privilege of voting upon all the migrants in this forthcoming election.
Maybe because they gave their okay for free choice of allies to Ukraine when parting? And Ukraine surrendered their nuclear weapons to Russia for the guarantee of it's independence?
@theartfuldodger8609 You live in a make-believe world to think this way. The US threatened a nuclear holocaust when Russia placed their missles in Cuba. Great powers have a say in most everything having to do with their sphere of influence. They prove this by their resolve and willingness to fight for it. I could pretend "a dictator next door" doesn't have a say, then act surprised or outraged after they carry out exactly what he said he would do, but I'd only look like the idiot like those who do. You're an unserious person with limited surface level thinking at your disposal.
While job sharing undoubtedly leads to a reduction in efficiency at times the public service isnt the reason the uk has no jobs and privately owned services.
I often compared massmigration with what is John Maynard Keynes contribution to macro economics "Keynesianism". Large funds from taxmoney funneled into infrastructure projects. Now the same money goes to migrants and infrastructure is neglected and rewards are infinitsmal. It spells catastrophy
Americas a country of immigrants, which explains why it doesn't have many social services. You cant have mass immigration while allowing immigrants to have social services. Only heterogeneous countries should have social services.
Canada is printing a lot if money to accommodate mass migration. Our economy is shrinking. Young people can't afford to have a family. Net Zero except all the newcomers will get cars and want to live in a heated home.😢
One of the biggest problems in the UK is housing costs, caused by lack of supply/over demand. Part of the solution will be to build a lot more accommodation. This would bring house prices down. Unfortunately, many people on the housing ladder see their homes/rental properties as investments and will not want the house prices to drop - these owners will include civil servants and politicians. So they will talk about building more housing but will not build enough for supply to exceed demand, thus keeping housing costs up. High housing costs increase living costs which push workers to demand higher wages which also increases living costs, reduces international competitiveness and pushes up the average market price of accommodation, i.e. house prices, making it even more difficult to find a job with a liveable wage. Building enough homes is possible but not without cost for many. So even if immigration was stopped overnight, future generations will have to keep paying - at least until the boomers all depart their homes.
Fair points about ministerial accountability but do the levels of government really manage/create the country and economic growth and international relations ?
"Being a parent drives you to be a better person". If your drive to become a better person is dictated by the fact that you now have a stake in the future, are you a better person or are you just protecting your self interests?
How will you be a better parent with less resources…. while other parents have more… so relatively your child won’t be able to compete ( multiple languages, music lessons, speech lessons, tutoring, you get the point). Being a parent is like being an employee. Of course there is the moral responsibility, but there is also of the responsibility of not letting Timmy eat whatever he wants when he is young so he has good self regulation patterns.
@@emupudding30"Isn't self interest what everyone does?" Yes, and that's my point. Parents are pursuing their self interest. They are not better people, they are just like everybody else.
These are long term trends, all dating back to 1920's Deindustrialization, deskilling both social and technical, ever accelerating demographic change and social stress
Nothing to do with no significant wage increases with higher productivity levels which generated huge increases in wealth since trickle down economics was a thing. All that wealth conveniently hoovered up by the wealthiest 1% who are now pushing fascism onto all of us because they've reached their limit of greed under the present system. Who needs a middle class? The future is certainly somebody's but definitely not ours. As John likes to point out the experts have had it too good for too long. This is a post truth world after all and John is here to never be required to prove it.

Before you would’ve felt close to your parents and spoke to them about how to become a better person in life and don’t get me wrong all the people sometimes still give questionable advice especially around parenting but we used to have large communities with big support networks so there was always someone in your village or area who you knew was good at something who you could speak to

In this current unstable markets, It is advisable to diversify while retaining 70-80% in secure investments. looking at your budget, you should consider financial advisory.
I think you're better off with majority investment in S&P500 and uprising equities cos they always outperform. Also speaking with an advisor can help with pointers. I've been in contact with one I reached through commentaries here, she has been really helpful.
impressive gains! how can I get your advlsor please, if you dont mind me asking? I could really use a help as of now
Melissa Elise Robinson " is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran an online search on her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.
Another excellent interview. Thanks from NZ.

How are we going to fight a war on wind and solar? We just had a holiday off grid in a solar powered cottage with battery storage. You couldn't use 2 appliances at once. We are sleep walking into a nightmare.
If your idea of a 'nightmare' is not being able to use two appliances at once, then you have not known real hardship.

Hopefully ideology will face reality at some point. How worse off we will be when that happens is anyone's guess. It's crazy that things have got as far as they have
Young people in the UK really need to think of moving somewhere that you can make and keep your money. You and your children will never be able to get ahead. You were able to beat the Nazis but, you'll never beat the civil service. Move.

I am approaching 80, left the UK 30 years ago. Had a house but no future, no job, thanks to Thatcher who did not want engineers but economy/finance type accountants with MBA. Now I have houses, money, sun all year where the surrounding countries appreciated redbrick BSc, world-beating MSc and wide experience, rewarded in like manner. Yes, move if you can the writing is on the wall; current and impending times will leave an indelible and irreversible decline on your futures.

The UK never beat the Nazis, Stalin did...
Where do we go? This is our home. We have nowhere else.
The greatest evolution of the climate change religion here in Australia has been and continues to be driven by local governments (public service). This ideology has taken the place of traditional western religions within our communities where there may have been a vacuum of common traditional community purpose.
It is understandable then that a ‘new’ activism, one which on face value requires no single adherence to a religion or anything other than ‘a common cause’ should emerge.
Climate change is a non issue designed to use up lots of time and money for no guaranteed result. It allows politicians to appear to care [about the planet] while not solving actual real time problems. A colossal waste of time and money….
For a former politician Mr Anderson isn't half a good listener. I enjoy all his conversations but those he has with Mr Kissin are especially valuable.
I don't understand why the NHS is free to foreigners, even tourists!
It's not free to tourists unless it's an emergency. Even Brits have to pay if they have been out of the country more than 6 months. Why it's free to immigrants even before they receive right to remain is baffling.
@@adoremus4014 Yes, but there are many foreigners in British hospitals being treated at huge expense, and when the NHS managers try to get them to pay the bills, they say they can't afford it! Many of them don't have any money at all. But we can't just stop treating them, because that would be against their human rights. So in reality many of them are getting it for free. There was a programme about this on BBC radio about 5 years ago. (Surprised they broadcast it to be honest).
@@ajs41 The rules changed in October 2017. Some countries have reciprocal healthcare agreements with the UK so the treatment is free. But non-urgent treatment now requires signing a 'Undertaking to Pay', otherwise they are denied treatment until they can pay. If the treatment is urgent, legally the NHS has to offer it free of charge if they cannot pay.
Konstantin doesn't think Australia is as woke as GB or US???? My God, he's way off there!
😂 Australia is becoming a woke left wing, we won't be far behind, but economy wise we are better because China buy iron/coal from Australia,but now they re switch to African core , just wait until it happens
Konstantin and John are brilliant together. Always insightful and engaging and you can tell the common admiration between the two.
Konstantin, who knows little about climate science or economics, has exceptional finesse in making his audience believe he knows much about both
Listened to Konstantin for years, but he's on fire here - I wish guys like this were in politics in their droves
He's a climate denier, and works as a mouthpiece for the Russian government.
How refreshing to hear conversations with two adults where they let each other speak without interruption. Great intellectual discussion!
We have plenty of houses in the UK, we just have mass immigration filling them up.
Lets not kid ourselves here, any normal country would have no problem simply building more houses.
Immigrants are the straw that broke the camels back.
Ask yourself why old people have temper tantrums when an high density housing is built nearby them, and that should answer your question.
Were right now paying for the older generations retirement.
Sounds familiar……. they upped immigration coming out of the pandemic into Australia and now rent and house prices are outrageous. Not fair for the people here nor the people coming here.
Immigration Austerity. Wages are suppressed and housing and public services are overwhelmed.
You have very high expectations from your government? Don't

Konstantin continues to impress. Doing civilisationally vital work.
In Canada the economy is terrible under Trudeau, all they talk about is building more houses and sending the rest of our tax dollars to the Ukraine. I feel poorer than I have ever felt and I am in my sixties
We are reading from the same script in the uk. My current wage would’ve been seen as a great wage about 4 years ago, now it’s barely enough to survive on.
Immigration rn makes me mad.
Its so wierd how so many people are from ONE SPECIFIC REGION from ONE SPECIFIC COUNTRY.
And their not even the smart Indians either. Their all from Punjab, not any of the places the smart indians from.
If we want to have a society of less children we need to commit to that and make it work. There are many positives to having a smaller population too. What's not helpful is importing foreign cultures to breed for us and then complaining when they don't think like us. We are just cutting our own throats.
It's called Magic dirt theory.
If people started to have fewer children & we stopped importing labour from abroad we would have an increased aging population being supported by a decreasing workforce/tax payers.
@@normanlazarus1836 yes l'm sure countries like Switzerland, Cleland, Scandinavia, Singapore they are all doing it very tough with their low populations.
@@mayormccheese6171 I have no problem with having a smaller population, I just want the demographics to support it.
lol
I qualified as a nurse in 1977. Working 43 yrs in healthcare mostly in emergency care but i did community and ward work. During that time i became really good at assessing people. What i found without exception was the most selfish patients and sometimes staff were those that never had children. I think its common knowledge in healthcare. So not having children does impact on our society in more ways than them just being tax payers. But Konstantin is right my son and his finance want children but housing and child care isnt affordable . Hopefully it will change for them but none of us are confident it will. Ive had 3 children i worked i studied and run a home during this time. You dont get Xmas off necessarily in healthcare. My children sre resilient and hardworking wonderful human beings now with their own families. Stop the victimhood
Stopping the victimhood will require re-education, or educating a new generation into an attitude of responsibility, rather than the opressor/oppressed dynamic, which is now the context in which everything lives, in the minds of the current generation.
Honesty is the best policy, learn it now Politicians, regain the trust of the people, and don't be afraid of the media or social media because truth is the goal not fakery.
Woke/DEI/Left/Femminist: won't us to believe man can have babies, man in women sports, woman can be man... this is the first lie... if you believe this lie, you believe anything the Democrat far left will tell you.
Who's going to tell you?
The role of politician is never to be honest from the historical books to current academia go read what they teach for politics then you will understand why they will never be honest and honest politicians are not politicians they're called problem solvers
Only problem solvers are honest as honesty and self reflection is requirement to solve many problems
Role of politicians is to manage people aka society with deceits and power the usual Machiavellian mantra
The electorate demands dishonesty. Many politicians know the truth, but the voters back those who tell the most plausible lies.
Mean age of Australians; 38. Europeans; 44.
Mean distance from Australia to the Asian mainland; 4,000 miles. Europe from Africa? 8!
Average salary of Doctors in Australia; $100,000; Doctors in Europe? 50-80,000.
Population density in Europe; 468 people per mi2. Australia ? 3.
It is not a fair comparison to compare a relatively young, vibrant unencumbered nation with illegal immigration with a youngish population to an aged, mature continent being flooded with illegal uncontrolable immigration and suffering the drain of highly-educated specialists to other areas of the World, and let's not even go onto the linguisitic and social arguments and challenges.
Europe? Yes, we are in the s**t, but let's see Australia in 20-30 years, where they might themselves in the same boat.
Some points you make are irrelevant. For instance, population density. Australia is basically an archipelago of dense urbanisation, where 99% of land is a desert devoid of humans. It might as well be an ocean in demographic terms. More than 75% of people live in the biggest ten cities. There isn't really muchnof a rural or semi rural Australia, like that can be found in Europe. If you look at the habitable parts (where people are able to live, because there is water) of Australia, they are much closer to those of Europe. Also, immigration to Australia accounts for most of the difference in mean age between the two continents.
i do work on a laptop so always need something to be wittering, I get sick & tired of most of it, but John & Konstantin is not an e.g. Always interesting & good entertainment. Plus, love John's choice of music. Thanks, so - more please.
Our countries are not controlled by elected politicians, they're run by outsourced unelected bureaucrats, supranational organisations and the central banks using the bond markets. Civil service, B of England, quangos, EU, WEF, WHO etc What's the point in voting when control is with people we can't control.....who voted for Ursula Von De Leyon? Who voted for Andrew Bailey? Who voted for Klaus Swab? All these people are out of our control but governments have handed power. Labour about to make it worse.

Thank you for this worthwhile conversation much appreciated
Brilliant duo, these two!!! ❤
Thanks again gents! I guess I'm old school now, but what a great approach you have to discussing the issues that matter. A listener can listen, learn and formulate, or begin to forrmulate an opinion. So difficult to get informative media discussion nowadays that's not clouded by emotion or agenda. The government should support families - it doesn't, and neither do the feministic impositions on family. A lot of young men (at least and maybe young women perhaps) nowadays are reluctant to embark on these relationships that end in acrimonious splits. Current Australian family laws don't encourage long term relationships - too much at risk. I don't mind saying either (at risk of being shouted down by someone), feminisim tends to dimish the role of males in parenting - speaking about maturing, postive male role models are essential for good healthy child development. There are many good fathers (male parents) out there that don't fit the feminist mold, but do a great job! Feminism undermines procreation and the legitmacy of family.
Always good to see you two chat...

Having children takes you to a new level of responsibility
For some. All I’m gonna say is there’s a reason why we need so many immigrants to look after the Quiet and Boomer generation in their twilight years. It looks like their lovely kiddies aren’t so reciprocal when it comes on to taking on that “new level ” responsibility of caring for their parents. So perspective please.

The cost of child care in the UK for one pre-school child is between £800 & £1000+ per calendar month. Both parents have to work to have an acceptable standard of living or become part of the non-working community that draws from the welfare state. Stay at home Mum's, or Dad's, who used to bring up the kids are a thing of the past unless you're very wealthy. Simply put, it's very expensive having children.
All round gerat conversation, as it usually is with Konstantin, just one caveat about the Ukraine negotiation point, the deal and concessions made have to be ones that Ukraine agrees to, the negotiations can’t be about Ukraine without Ukraine and although I fully agree that the current administration isn’t doing nearly enough, given Trumps track record with Ukraine and his supporter base I can’t imagine he would be particularly motivated to either get a good deal for Ukraine or to provide the “support with everything” option
Good topics and interesting discussion. Starting points for conversations we need to have as societies.
"having a conversation" assumes people are still reasonable - use logic. Since the war on intelligence waged by "common core" education, that has all changed.
A brilliant interview thank you

I have immense respect for John, who is definitely one of the good guys, but his assertion that Russia has lost 500.000 men is almost certainly false. The attrition rate is 10 to 1 on average, so if true would mean Ukrainian losses exceed 5 million - really? The best estimate from Douglas Macgregor ( the real expert, not given to Hyperbole ) is 550,000 Ukrainian dead and over One Million wounded. Russian losses, although heavy, are roughly one tenth of that. How can they both be duped by such a massive propaganda lie.........
illegal immigration, often under the disguise of asylum, messed up legal migration. outrageous real estate prices. bad job prospects outside of cities, riddiculous rents / house(flat) prices in cities. a society but especially political class and police force AFRAID to be perceived as racist for holding foreigners to the same standards as they hold locals to. we're reaching the collapsing point of many many pyramid schemes (social security, especially rents/pensions, real estate, education cost, especially the unnecessary academisation and many more)
the perspectives are bad .. the entrance cost are insane .. OFC people are hesitant to start a family
"they make you feel good, they run around, they're cute. but apart from that they don't really do anything of value UNTIL THEY'RE FORTY nowadays"
' The decline in religiosity ' LOL .
Couldn’t agree more on the subject of not being completely mature as a human (sorry that’s a bit clumsy, can’t remember how you worded it), but I had my kids late in life, and that was my experience. It was a revelation that I would not have been able to explain to my younger self, let alone anyone else, nor would have appreciated someone telling me… without the experience, I’m not sure it can be told.
Excellent chat!
Acoustics and echo are an issue for listening. Good conversation.
I love these conversations so much between the two of you. They are always so full of great ideas and wisdom. I too, think it is so important to sell the idea of family and children to young people- these are the things that give life meaning. But we have to make sure they can afford a house and afford to have children. At the moment the governments of the west seem to have everything upside down. They don't seem to care about the public at all.
A great interview.
Yes and John as someone who was high up in the lofty seat of power, what do we do about all this?? We know where the problems are but nothing changes. Just more consultant reviews and royal commissions.
As a French regular visitor to Britain for the last 40+ years, I've always found Britain much poorer and with a much older infrastructure than France. Further the cost of accommodation and transport has always been skyhigh. To be fair, I also think lower class people pay far less tax than in France
If the 'lower class' in the UK paid any more fkin tax they wouldn't have any wages left...
That may be because French prices are higher...
Stayed with a French family and was shocked by the level of tax in France that they told me about.
As a former resident of France I disagree vehemently with your statement. People are taxed to the hilt in France, your infrastructure isn't that good, bus services are non existent outside of Paris, your only good roads are very expensive TOLL roads . I never felt that France was richer than UK, just more socialist generally.

The echo in the room is terrible. Use proper microphones next time.
The most meager participation in a UK general election was a mere 57.2% in the year 1918.
This momentous election came in the wake of the Great War and the passage of the Representation of the People Act of 1918, a pivotal reform that greatly expanded the electorate, enfranchising women over the age of 30 and all men over the age of 21.
One wonders if they shall bestow the privilege of voting upon all the migrants in this forthcoming election.

Why would Russia accept NATO membership for Ukraine?
Why should a dictator next door have veto power over a sovereign democracy's political choices?
Ukraine is not sovereign it will always be part of soviet bloc. Estonia etc should keep shut lest they are hit next. Nato is all hot sir
Maybe because they gave their okay for free choice of allies to Ukraine when parting? And Ukraine surrendered their nuclear weapons to Russia for the guarantee of it's independence?
@theartfuldodger8609 You live in a make-believe world to think this way. The US threatened a nuclear holocaust when Russia placed their missles in Cuba. Great powers have a say in most everything having to do with their sphere of influence. They prove this by their resolve and willingness to fight for it.

I often compared massmigration with what is John Maynard Keynes contribution to macro economics "Keynesianism".
Large funds from taxmoney funneled into infrastructure projects.
Now the same money goes to migrants and infrastructure is neglected and rewards are infinitsmal.
It spells catastrophy
Americas a country of immigrants, which explains why it doesn't have many social services.
You cant have mass immigration while allowing immigrants to have social services.
Only heterogeneous countries should have social services.
Check your economics textbook, immigrants are a net gain to the economy and outweigh their cost.
Canada is printing a lot if money to accommodate mass migration. Our economy is shrinking. Young people can't afford to have a family. Net Zero except all the newcomers will get cars and want to live in a heated home.😢
Wow ministers expected to be in charge of their departments! Wouldn't that be nice in the UK.
One of the biggest problems in the UK is housing costs, caused by lack of supply/over demand. Part of the solution will be to build a lot more accommodation. This would bring house prices down. Unfortunately, many people on the housing ladder see their homes/rental properties as investments and will not want the house prices to drop - these owners will include civil servants and politicians. So they will talk about building more housing but will not build enough for supply to exceed demand, thus keeping housing costs up.
High housing costs increase living costs which push workers to demand higher wages which also increases living costs, reduces international competitiveness and pushes up the average market price of accommodation, i.e. house prices, making it even more difficult to find a job with a liveable wage.
Building enough homes is possible but not without cost for many. So even if immigration was stopped overnight, future generations will have to keep paying - at least until the boomers all depart their homes.
Fair points about ministerial accountability but do the levels of government really manage/create the country and economic growth and international relations ?
"Being a parent drives you to be a better person".
If your drive to become a better person is dictated by the fact that you now have a stake in the future, are you a better person or are you just protecting your self interests?
Isn't self interest what everyone does?
How will you be a better parent with less resources…. while other parents have more… so relatively your child won’t be able to compete ( multiple languages, music lessons, speech lessons, tutoring, you get the point).
Being a parent is like being an employee. Of course there is the moral responsibility, but there is also of the responsibility of not letting Timmy eat whatever he wants when he is young so he has good self regulation patterns.
@@emupudding30"Isn't self interest what everyone does?"
Yes, and that's my point. Parents are pursuing their self interest. They are not better people, they are just like everybody else.
These are long term trends, all dating back to 1920's
Deindustrialization, deskilling both social and technical, ever accelerating demographic change and social stress
Nothing to do with no significant wage increases with higher productivity levels which generated huge increases in wealth since trickle down economics was a thing.
All that wealth conveniently hoovered up by the wealthiest 1% who are now pushing fascism onto all of us because they've reached their limit of greed under the present system.

I think it’s important to note that I think the breakdown of community and the family structure has led to therapy being such a successful industry.
I absolutely agree there is certain therapy that is needed and can be a beneficial tool. But if I think about a lot of the therapies it’s been advertised at the moment it’s basically a a friend to vent your worries too. Before you would’ve felt close to your parents and spoke to them about how to become a better person in life and don’t get me wrong all the people sometimes still give questionable advice especially around parenting but we used to have large communities with big support networks so there was always someone in your village or area who you knew was good at something who you could speak to
