@O R Y X Welcome back. Yes, that's exactly what happened.

Just found and subscribed, thoroughly enjoyed the conversation and how you allowed the brilliant Starkey to talk rather than interrupt continuously like some hosts feel the need to do. Great work 👍

Great job guys! This was awesome.

@Annabel Lee Yes, Dr David Starkey has been cancelled by the BBC because he has his own views and he refuses to parrot Marxist dogma.

He shouldn't be given any platform to spew his racism! BBC made the right decision.

@@bikazful But you have got to hear all sides: if you do not, then how do you know that what you oppose is wrong and what you support is right?

How is he racist?

You lucky man.

@@richardhall4830 I'll ask!!

Richard Hall me too! Can I come and listen? 🤩

You do a good job! I've sometimes looked at Dr Starkey's hair and thought how well cut it was - you've managed to make it look like quite a full head of hair. All I talk with my hairdresser about is holidays, and local village gossip!

That is really neat. I would love to be there listening to him. But alas I live way to far away.

Same here.

@Delta Fox I, for one, would not care to marry someone who is " prefect ".

I’m old and I’m loving it. Best time of my life!

Is anyone afraid of growing old? That's the first I have heard about it. Im afraid of the consequences of ageing, but not of being old per se.

@Max Raider I would classify Starkey as a member of the intellectual class, but I consider the Blue Checkmarks on Twitter to merely be the chattering class/the Twatterati.

@Max Raider I fully concur.

Absolutely. The past seems to be in danger of being eradicated in the name of political correctness and diversity. Dictators rewrite history. I saw David Lammy refer to the last war as the European Project. I doubt that the millions who died around the world saw it that way. He is the sort of idiot we don't need. My solicitor puts it well. To know where we are going we have to know where we have been. We are supposed to learn from the past, to respect it but not be bound by it.

100%

@@censorshipbites7545 Superb! :D

I highly recommend his documentaries on the old British royal families. You'll never want another voice handling these topics again. Pure delight!

A Tudor Expert..PROFESSOR Starkey now resigned!

Hes on youtube, series called Monarchy. Look it up. He knows his stuff.

@chris andrewes true, but if you could really grasp the gargantuan size of the nation and how expensive it is to travel then youd understand it. Education in usa is propagandised due to usa origins and the desire to disassociate with Europe for obvious and good reason. My husband is American, I live here. I've dispelled a lot of myths for him about Europe and England and he's seen it for himself since he's traveled to Europe since meeting me. I traveled to usa since meeting him. We are lucky to have so many cultures on the doorstep of uk. Usa isn't. They are 4000 miles away. A trip to Europe costs a bomb. There is an infinite number of places to visit within the usa. You could visit a different state every year and be middle aged before you cross the border. It took me some time to get my head around the vastness that is usa. They are also taught that usa is the best and the first for technology, luxury, everything. So many genuinely believe that nowhere else comes close. I've lost count of the number of people whove asked me if its better here. My response is always the same... Its as good as ... in different ways. What you lose in one comfort you gain in another. One saud "it must be a culture shock" i said, not even slightly, ive been to africa and Egypt, THAT is a culture shock, this isnt. He laughed but im not sure he knew what I meant. And why would he? He's never seen anything like that. Our view is shaped by experience. My husband has developed a keen interest in the world. I've developed a keen interest and a loyalty to usa. I didnt expect that. But I love it here. I love the wide open space. And people aren't as ignorant as you may think. Some are, but britain has its own share. Nowhere has the monopoly on ignorance.

Australia is nearly as big and a lot further way and we're not ignorant about Europe.

Hello, I just discovered these three men. What you say about interrupting is so true. I am so fed up of the TV talk shows in France, they all talk together, and now, I am obliged to seek english talk shows n youtube and even radios (discovered TIMES radio, which I listen every morning now, since a week. I tried BBC 4, they had a special on the poor black boy killed by whites in Mississippi. And thanks to David Starkey, he said on his interview on Harry and the decline of western civilisation, that BBC had become woke. How sad.

@Marco Tee Yes, I exactly.

@Mr Lopez Haha. Funny, but so true.

Age of reason ended there. Feminism take over of education in Australia a prime example. Results plummet.

That's why I hate LibArts. LibAtrs should be "utterly" defunded. We used to cure all mental ilnesses with a hard physical labor. Now we pay these idiot. And the pattern is very simple, it's a big government. It's all about the money, and all the roads lead to Rome. All revolutions were started by the same rich idiots. They are all LibArts Burgeoisie from Marx to Hitler. As Aristotle in 350BC on Politics & Preserving Tyranny basically said: Women & SoyBoys prefer Tyrants, & Tyrants love Immigrants because they can't Compete with the Tyrants. As Lenin said (the Big Lebowski reference): Find out who benifits, and follow the money!! Outsource their jobs & they will run to build the wall. Or just send them to work!!!

That would get on my nerves if it were anyone else but Starkey. even though I don't agree with all of his nuances of history I learn so much!

All brits of every class or gender should admire David.. such a beautiful soul. Insight and intellect. What a treasure.

Actually at the time of Rousseau there wasn’t as clear a delineation between France and Switzerland as there is now. Also Geneva was very independent at that time. Again, as for Burke, at that time Ireland wasn’t an autonomous state. It was run from British Parliament so it was, even before the official Union, was very much a part of British society and culture. Also please understand the contexts when Starkey is talking about what are seemingly contradictory comments. This highlights a limit in your thinking methodology. You’re thinking in too absolutist/black and white terms.

No, he just gets paid too much.

@@bestdjaf7499 In his own words, not enough.

About 10 years or so ago he was referred to as the rudest man in Britain in some newspaper articles. It's his way. He can't and won't change. :)

J C good job providing an example that arrogance and ignorance aren’t qualities confined to American culture. You sound like a tool homie.

I always had great history teachers which helped my love of it and is tucked it a uni. Sadly don’t have a job related to history now.

Dead Grubber - Correct! I had a history teacher just like him and it was, and remains, my favourite subject.

Thankfully my Father was my history teacher from a very young age. He's obsessed with the American Civil War, but has always been more than happy to discuss and argue over other points in history with me. Granted it helped that he bought me games like Age of Empires that became a favourite of mine from 4 years old and onwards, all of the Total War series (that has some fascinating descriptions of all the units, and piqued my interest enough as a young teen to read Wikipedia entries on specific battles or regiments, tactics etc.), and he was always buying me age appropriate books on history and the world like the 100 things you should know about castles, 100 things you should know about birds etc. right up to full on biographies of Napoleon or books on ancient Rome, Sparta, Athens etc.. I say this because all my teachers knew absolutely nothing about history or were so unenthusiastic, that I would have loathed it had I not had the best teacher a boy could've had growing up, my Dad!

I find him boring.

@Delta Fox I think the critic is an artist because they need enough perspective to comment creatively and knowledgeably on the work of others. Starkey is very imaginative but he did not catch the invalid premise that woke culture arose from the left. It may have been planted and cultivated in the rich soil of leftist diversity but did not arise naturally from grass roots thinking and politics, which arises from common sense, majority rule, and consideration for the unfortunate

Our disaster Trudeau is running once a descent country into the ground

Until roughly the late 2000s, Canada’s identity was rooted largely in the idea that we were a poorer but more conscientious sidekick to America. Our whole multilateral (and occasionally pacifistic) shtick on the world stage, not to mention our system of cultural subsidies, was based on the conceit that our relative smallness and poverty compared to the United States masked some kind of well-hidden reserve of moral superiority. It was an insecure, passive-aggressive posture that often expressed itself as peevish anti-Americanism. But at the very least, it acted as a binding agent for an English-speaking Canadian intellectual establishment whose common culture otherwise was confined to hockey, cold weather and universal health care. # But during the Obama years, all of this was thrown into confusion, because the housing-loan crisis smashed America without much affecting Canada. Suddenly, we were no longer the poor cousin. At almost exactly the same time, Barack Obama’s election in the United States, coupled with Stephen Harper’s rise in Canada, reversed the left-right political valence that had powered Canadians’ sense of moral superiority since the early years of the Cold War. Suddenly, we were the bad guys, and the whole organizing principle of Canadian intellectual life began to collapse. Into this vacuum came Idle No More, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, the MMIWG report, the Indigenous backlash to Canada 150 - and Trudeau, whose political instincts are rooted in the confessional, self-lacerating spirit of political correctness that began to infect campus life at McGill University (and elsewhere) in the late 1980s and early ’90s. Twenty years ago, we bashed America. In 2020, we bash us. # These things move in cycles, and it is possible that in a few years we may be facing the opposite problem: a populist counter-revolt that leads to a real culture of nativism and xenophobia in Canada. But given the blurring of social justice and environmentalism into a de facto religious movement, it’s also possible to imagine that in my lifetime, B.C. will elect a hyper-progressive provincial government that truly does subordinate itself to some kind of as-yet-undefined overarching system of Indigenous spiritual or moral leadership. Even parts of Ontario and Atlantic Canada could succumb to this sort of phenomenon, with only Quebec, I think, being completely immune. # Ironically, many Indigenous people would themselves be horrified by such an economically regressive development, as they have just now gotten a seat at the table when it comes to pursing their just share of Canadian economic spoils. But recent developments show clearly that the Canadian left honours Indigenous people more as noble-savage protest mascots than as flesh-and-blood humans with real economic needs. # If there’s a ray of hope, it lies in the next generation of leaders, who will be today’s immigrants from China, India, Philippines, Syria and a hundred other places. These are people whose families came to Canada for a better life. And that better life did not include marching through the streets, ululating fidelity to Gaia and self-flagellating with barbed-wire dream-catchers. It wasn’t their grandparents who ran the residential schools, after all, and few of them are stained with the Canadian Mark of Cain. These are the people who will finally put a punctuation mark at the end of the mania for weeping contrition that’s taken hold of this country. They are the ones who will stand up and say, “there was a time for apologies, but that time is over.” # Trudeau and the people around him are clearly not capable of doing this. Nor is the aging crew of guilt-addled old-stock Canadians clinging to leadership in Canadian media and arts. If they’re looking for a way to demonstrate their “allyship” with both Indigenous people and new Canadian immigrants alike, the best option might be to simply pack up shop, let a new generation take over and retire to that great unspoiled Canadian wilderness whose sanctity they have long purported to protect. - Jonathan Kay

@@znerolz It was right at the beginning.

Agree 100%. I liked Starkey as classical historian , when he presented his history programs, but hated his polemic wrt to Brexit. However, I am so glad I watched this. He clearly was having fun, and his wicked sense of humor came through. He has no respect for sacred cows. I also totally concur with the notion that we have replaced one dogma with another, i.o.w in the absence of one religion, we will find another. Despite being raised in Catholic Irish schools, I have never been blessed with a faith in the hereafter. My legacy will be what I do and who I positively affect in this lifetime. I respect your comments in totality.

Yep, and fleeced Engels for money. Lazy cadger

Than you didn't read his works... Read it again

spector969 he’s a very cunning linguist.

I'm quite glad someone caught that and managed to squeeze it by the youtube censors. Brilliant.

Delta Fox I don’t understand your issue. You’re saying her got away with saying it because he’s a ‘homosexual’? So, you are happy with KZfaq censorship? I actually had a friend who was a post-op, REGRETTED it greatly, lamented their folly and lives with such a ‘vagina’. I’m rather more concerned with a comment from someone that can not appreciate humour, tugs on the apron strings on censorship, and implies, rather in a slightly homophobic and anti-intellectual way, that he ‘got away with it’ because he put on his Oscar Wilde hat and wasn’t sat near gotcha Stasi journalists, and that he really ought to be open to being ‘clubbed to death’ for joke. That’s awfully creepy.

@Delta Fox I thought Cul-Du-Sac was a fitting analogy for a non biologically functioning orifice.

Blue pills wrapped in red pills.

No they were a blue pill . In other words grow a pair.

Typical buffoonery by this bluffing old windbag. Nothing new about him getting it wrong.

I agree with Starkey generally, but like most people, and I include myself, he failed to understand the seriousness of this disease. We shall all be a lot less smug about it in future.
