I never understand people sitting in their houses (that were once built) complaining about other houses being built for people to live in now. How ridiculous 😅
I wouldn’t say it’s ridiculous as such. It is understandable if you’re one of those that thinks “I’m ok so pull the ladder up Jack.”
I’ve got mine. The foundational principle of the conservative mentality.
every village, throughout history, has been new at some time.. its absurd to try and stop it.
It all went down hill after humans decided a home was anything more than a safe shelter from the elements and wild beasts. The powerful (wealthy) turned them into cathedrals of self satisfaction, paid for by the taxes gleaned from the powerless and then slavery. Could go on, but board with my inner voice😂
Lol I like that
Why are Israeli athletes not being banned anywhere???
If Russian athletes can't participate..than neither can Israeli athletes! The Olympic Games were created to stop/truce wars...
I can't reply. I've been shadowbanned 😪
@@brianferguson7840 they were too busy training and not participating in war, that’s why 🤭
Nigel,Nigel, Nigel I live in a village just outside Wallingford, we do not an immigration problem here, just alot of Reform voter's 😂.

JAMES!!!! Y'ALL made it! It's the dawn of a new age there in Britain! Congrats!
Not quite a “new age.” But it’s fair to say it’s on a better path.

People don't complain about the homes being built round by me. They complain that they forget to upgrade the existing road infrastructure or build the green spaces and schools to go with them.
Immigration already stood at 3000 people per year in 1953, rose to 46,800 by 1956 and yet further to 136,400 by 1961.
Life continued and the country boomed.
The fact that Farage (and so many of the recently departed Tories) has managed to convince people that current levels are unprecedented, unsustainable and unmanageable only goes to show what dishonest spiv he truly is.
The choice is clear; maintain a responsible, organized and ethical immigration system in order to further develop the country and it's economy, or wither on a diet of half-truths, lies and fear mongering from populists such as Farage.
But lies and twisted truths are easier to believe for a lot of the world. The lesser or uneducated are easier to fool. Which is why Trump goes down so well and why he loves them…
@@TheDom277 Unfortunately you're absolutely correct.
@@dameonwalker8994 Ok my comments been deleted… Rather odd.
I wish I was wrong in what I said. That would mean the world was in a better place…
The problem is: the UK doesn't build anything. HS2 is just the latest victim. UK doesn't build houses, hospitals, schools, trains, and so on. People are upset because rents are rising, nobody can buy homes, schools and hospitals are full, train is sh**. They blame it on immigrants, because everything is just full of people. Build stuff!! This is not limited to the UK, but also France, Germany.
I found it funny they went to Spain to question expats in their vote as they were allowed to vote outside the country for the first time, and these EXPATS were talking about how immigrants are ruining Britain so the voted reform from their villa’s in SPAIN. Us Brits aren’t the brightest bunch when it comes to politics and law.

I suppose worrying about new buildings in the area must be infinitely more worrying than feeding the kids, heating your home etc etc
@1953mr
Of course, if you've never had to worry about feeding your kids or paying the bills, even if 20% vat on Tarquin's school fees don't bother you. Then some affordable housing "IS A CAUSE FOR PARANOID PANIC"😂
How's the re-join the EU campaign going?

As the most damaged country in the world in terms of bio-diversity with the potential collapse of eco-systems, it strikes me that the (1) The million + empty properties and (2). Brown field sites first and foremost need to be explored as an option. Just considering the water situation in isolation - these new towns if built, will need to be supported by new sewage systems and plants being modernised to accommodate the increase in effluents. Otherwise, river pollution will continue to be an issue. Yeah on the point of is it such a big deal - a new estate? I think most people just get on with it and accept it, but that still means eco-systems suffer and if you're aware of that and care, that's of some concern.
But your concept of "biodiversity" doesn't seem to extend to the deliberate and hugely irresponsible effect of introducing large populations of non indigenous competing invasive foreign species that have a massively disproportionate detrimental impact on the native ecosystem does it?🤔.....because the type of moral standards you get only ever comes in multipack format
Build a new town on the Drax Estate
This is the best thing about my favorite news presenter (not sure that’s an accurate description of James, I live in America) is how he talks about how he actually loves his England and how he wants to make it better for more people.
Brilliant.
Green Belt was defined to provide the "lungs" of towns and cities.
Why shouldn't the focus be on building houses on so-called "brown field" sites.
It has been done on part of Ford's plant a Dagenham. Yes, there are pollution problems with some "brown field" sites but by no means is it a problem with all "brown field" sites.
There are also issues with building houses in areas without adequate sewage facilities and to make sure that the new builds do not damage the flood plains.
Yeah I think a lot of people have stretched the term to mean whatever they want it to mean. So they can then pretend that any development at all is an infringement upon 'the green belt'. If a farmer wants to sell their land to a housing developer, then it simply isn't a green belt.
Why is there a dalek in the thumbnail?
Because of one of the unhinged headlines.
Due to the Unhinged Headline at 55:15
(and then there was that other bit that Henry Riley was reporting about from the PopCon conference at 2 2:22:35 where they speaker was making Doctor Who references).
Because the Daleks are awesome and like you it made me click on the video.
Slagging farmers of for not selling their land, how low do you go?
Redrow are buying up lots of farm land around me - Chester West - a semi rural area. Houses are £350k+, and it has devastated wildlife, caused severe flooding, and increased traffic 100fold! Not to mention ruined the beautiful landscape.

Just a note, my wife is an immigrant from asia

Food producing farm land shouldn't be used when non arable land is nearby. That said housing must be built and compromises are probably a necessity.
The Danny Dyer clip never gets old! 😆😆😆
Does anyone think of chiswick outside of doctor Donna? I’m American, but I live in Worcester, MA where basically all of our cities and towns are very British sounding/spelling the rest of the country can never properly pronounce 😅
I live near Worcester and I gotta say that I think James should head back to Worcester Parkway station. It is just around the corner from a whole load of new builds.
I also guessed Hogwarts lol
Correct me if I am wrong, didn't the England cricket team go and play a tour of South Africa,or a friendly 3 day test ? This was in the height of the Apartheid regime. I remember some of the England team,the ICC and the British 😢 government saying politics should not get in the way or prevent sports men and women competing ?

I thought the oddest headline today was from Caitlin Moran and the story about releasing 40000 criminals early because there is lack of room in jail was a little frightning.
Are we cancelling all russians now, father?
22:42 also isnt there like a shed load of houses in london and the like that are currently unoccupied because they are efficacy being used as wealth store by rich people?
23:38 council flats? nursing homes? apartments? with their children ?
Why are people not having more kids. It could, not be that, standards of living have fallen so fast that the children are expected to have a lower lifestyle than their parents. Man in his best wisdom, can solve the problem by finding a band aid. In 25 to 30 years the same complaints will surface. Indoor plumbing and electricity will no longer excite that generstion. No more land space will be available. The new deal will be war? 1:13:47

Regarding whether Russian tennis players should play in Wimbledon. I feel that they should. After all, in the UK we say that we have been victimized by a government that has ruined lives. We say that our callous leaders have not listened to us and done things that we will never agree to. We can visit and participate in the Olympics if they were presumably held in Afghanistan, Iraq, Northern Ireland and South Africa. Why can we not separate Russians from the Russian government as we so easily separate ourselves from our own government?
And what about banning Israeli athletes ?
@@MyPortsmouth The argument I am making is that if we should hold ourselves to the same standards as Russian and indeed, Israeli citizens. In other words, in my opinion we shouldn't be banning anyone otherwise half the worlds countries wouldn't be allowed to show up to the Olympics
I feel embarrassed that I voted out.
For me it was because I blamed Osborn and Cameron for my Dad's death. Austerity crashed into the health services and because his cancer was missed and only found two weeks before he died even though he was under a overworked consultant. Corridors full of trolleys with people on them wating to be seen in A E. 14.May 2016 ,I hold Cameron responsible, sorry that's why I voted out.
22:14 i would say that in 1951 there was a lot less city and a lot more land ... and also that a lot of those houses would probably be built on the site of former houses that have be leveled by bombing during ww2 and as such they wouldn't be green field development also that there were a lot less people and a lot more land
As a teacher I think banning phones is ridiculous; we complain that we don't have technology for the kids and when every kid walks in with the latest technology, we tell them to switch them off. There are so many apps and web sites that kids can use as learning tools but it requires strict rules and discipline so its easier to say, OK turn them off, no leave them out of the building. We adults use our phones for work and instead of teaching children the discipline of mobile phones, we make them more desirable - crazy
My mom is a foreign language teacher (in Poland) and she uses phones all the time, even for homework. It doesn't actually take any discipline or new rules. Do kids in UK just do whatever during class?

If the boats were stopped we wouldn't need any news houses
The ‘stop the boats’ campaign started in Australia and the asylum seekers ended up either in detention or hotels. You can tackle the illegal traffickers making money from it but you can’t stop desperate asylum seekers.
Friends. Eton is not "the most famous school in the world". Outside of your island and its chatter, nobody knows it exists. You need to stop thinking you're the center of the Earth, it's not healthy.

Harvard.
@@paraicmchugh5468 A University not a school or is there a school Ive never heard of except in disguise perhaps
In the UK school means 18 and under, we would refer to Harvard as a university.
@@weareallbornmad410 Ah. I would say that school would at least colloquially be used as a catch-all term for places of learning but therein lies the beauty and frustration of language, I guess.

39:24 were there any "terrorists" potentially operating out of it at the time ? :P
No because Ukraine are a country fighting a war of defence and Hamas are a terror cult trying to destroy a nation
15M minimum need to be repatriated, then you won’t need “ new towns “ in our beautiful country.
It’s just counting.
We keep being told the birth rate is low .
Why do we need new towns if that is the case ?
Who are these homes for I wonder?
We have an aging population, and we need workers to run the economy. We have shortages in all kinds of important professionals, and this will only get worse as our population gets older and moves out of the workforce and becomes reliant on the state. This is why we need immigrants. We need people to run the economy so that the country can function.
I worked in planning in a small Scottish island for 16 yrs 18 yrs ago. When I left I thought there wld not be much new housebuilding going on after that. How wrong I was! New houses everywhere but population not increasing. Youngsters nowadays want their own homes and not live with mum and dad. That has a lot to do with it.
It’s rained every day since Peerage Keith Rodders Stammer has been in charge
So no water shortage but lots more sewage going into little english waterways. Imagine little engkand might have first summer in years where there r no water pipe bans.

Oh they will. Tories will further divide themselves into oblivion. Farage's vanity, sense of entitlement, massive ego and extremely shady characters in his 5 man band of undesirables will almost certainly result in an implosion of his toxic party. They will make abysmal constituency MPs. Serves Clacton right for voting.

Thanks Existentialism for the Labour result and the immediate tone of professionalism, commitment and service to the nation. HOWEVER, regarding OBrien, on LBC, I still can’t listen to the man. Not one hint of humour or humility. Sarcastic and smug when engaging with callers. There’s something not quite right. As an atheist, maybe it’s my lack of trust in believers or is there a whiff of double standards and hypocrisy, I can’t put my finger on. Anyway Go Sir Kier and your great team!!
