James. Well, Liz, I mean, looking at Britain and looking at Australia, how far away is your impression that we are here in Australia from, you know, suffering or seeing now we're seeing the real rebellion of people in in the United Kingdom, the massive patriotic marches, the flag movement, all of these things to protest and say we're, you know, we want to preserve the Britain that we know and love. We want it back. How far away are we, do you think, in Australia from that?

And in Britain is reform. Would you go and do something with the reform party? So in Britain it's feeling existential. It is feeling existential about whether or not our country remains like it is or falls apart. That is how bad it is. And people have given up on the main political parties. So Conservatives and Labor are now both about 16% in the polls each. and reform is on 34%. So there has been a complete So when I see what's happening here, I think that's where Britain was a few years ago, frankly, that people still have some kind of faith in the main political parties. That has now been lost in Britain because neither party has stood up to the globalist blob. and I talked about what happened to me as prime minister, but those forces are very powerful. They're very dominant in Britain and we are seeing now a popular uprising against them. It's a and our economy is in serious trouble. We're probably headed for an IMF bailout uh where we are. So things are very very bad in Britain, worse than they are in Australia. But I think that is a galvanizing force.

Can I reiterate? Would you work with reform? Would you re get back into politics? I've technically That's a yes. And that's fine. So, yeah, that's right. I'll take a yes anytime. You heard it here first. I've only been out of politics one year and I don't feel like I've really left politics. I spent all my time talking about politics. But my point about Nigel Farage who is you know he's the bookie's favorite to be next prime minister in Britain. If it is the case that he ends up in number 10 and the system doesn't change if the bureaucrats remain the cha the same if all the Blairite laws stay in place the human rights act equality act nothing will change. So what my obsession is is how do we achieve a counterrevolution in Britain because the left have you know had a revolution. The Marxists have taken over the judiciary, the civil service, the police with uh wokery with net zero zealatry with uh Islamism and that is what we need to take back. So we don't just need foot soldiers in parliament. We need foot soldiers to actually take on the bureaucracy and have a con have a have a movement have a movement that is actually going to overturn what's happened.

Well, Liz, just I see myself as on the front line of the counter revolution exactly exactly what role I will take. You know, we will see. We will see. Very very quickly, does do conservatives need to then say getting out of all of these international agreements, including refugee agreements, this is the way to get this happening? Yes. Because the left the left have used this as a tool for the last 50 years. You know, it was Harold Wilson, a prime minister in Britain you may or may not have heard of, who first allowed Brits to appeal directly to the European Court of Human Rights. It was in the 1960s. So this is they've been planning this for a long time and we've been asleep at the wheel and we've been accommodating them and saying, "Oh yes, we're concerned about human rights. Oh yes, we're concerned about equality. Oh yes, we're concerned about these environmental issues. Meanwhile, they've just been taking ground. So yes, we do. These agreements are not fit for purpose. Mhm. The asylum agreements, the refugee agreements, the human rights agreements, none of them are fit for purpose. Please trust and they've been they they basically they have been tools that the left has used against us. So the left has weaponized lawfare. They've weaponized human rights and now they're even killing people. I mean that is how bad it has got.

Liz Truss, we got to leave it there. I'll just remind you that it was on Outsiders at Cpek in 2019 that we told Nigel Farage he would be the next prime minister of Britain. They're just saying that was only ago. We're always on the money. Liz, you weren't you weren't technically right, were you? He wasn't the next prime minister. There you go. We'll see you again soon. Thank you so much. That's fantastic. Please trust.
