--> 00:01:33,890 wood and strings and being a musician 22 00:01:28,250 --> 00:01:33,890 brings with it a number of challenges 23 00:01:34,220 --> 00:01:45,689 one of which is the musicians artists 24 00:01:40,380 --> 00:01:51,299 and creative people generally and I know 25 00:01:45,689 --> 00:01:59,119 Hastings is rich with all of these have 26 00:01:51,299 --> 00:02:04,020 one way or another a

00:02:21,959 a therapist is something that I can 33 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:29,160 heartily recommend everybody should have 34 00:02:21,959 --> 00:02:35,220 one unfortunately access to mental 35 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:37,770 health support to treatment and to the 36 00:02:35,220 --> 00:02:42,989 help that people sometimes need to get 37 00:02:37,770 --> 00:02:48,810 over what is very often a bump is simply 38 00:02:42,989 --> 00:02:51,239 not there and I had my personal 39 00:02:48,810 --> 00:02:55,700 experience with was very much I had a 40 00:02:51,239 --> 00:02:59,030 bad year or a couple of eight years and 41 00:02:55,700 --> 00:03:05,760 came through the end of my two bad years 42 00:02:59,030 --> 00:03:08,700 my Anna's horribly feeling kind of flat 43 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:14,880 and empty and you know with with really 44 00:03:08,700 --> 00:03:18,000 no impetus and I seemed to be spending 45 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:22,200 far more time ranting about things on 46 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:25,260 Facebook and Twitter and doing nothing 47 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:28,680 about it and I'm sure we all know that 48 00:03:25,260 --> 00:03:30,570 feeling you know the frustration you 49 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:33,390 feel when you read something or see 50 00:03:30,570 --> 00:03:34,410 something and you need to get that out 51 00:03:33,390 --> 00:03:37,470 and we do it when they're with our 52 00:03:34,410 --> 00:03:40,890 thumbs we don't talk we don't we just 53 00:03:37,470 --> 00:03:42,269 rant on facebook twitter social media 54 00:03:40,890 --> 00:03:44,579 and that's what I was doing and I was 55 00:03:42,269 --> 00:03:49,890 just kind of driving myself down into a 56 00:03:44,579 --> 00:03:54,299 deeper hole and it was actually my GP 57 00:03:49,890 --> 00:03:56,370 who said to me David you know and you 58 00:03:54,299 --> 00:03:59,280 keep telling me this you keep telling me 59 00:03:56,370 --> 00:04:01,140 that you're frustrated and you're but 60 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:05,190 you why don't you do something about it 61 00:04:01,140 --> 00:04:07,530 instead of just talking about it and as 62 00:04:05,190 --> 00:04:10,470 I go through and I'm not going to take 63 00:04:07,530 --> 00:04:13,680 as long as George did I have not quite 64 00:04:10,470 --> 00:04:15,720 as much to say I think George has many 65 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:20,760 many more years experience at this than 66 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:21,930 I do but I I was waiting for somebody 67 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:27,449 else to do it 68 00:04:21,930 --> 00:04:30,870 and we can't do that it if we want 69 00:04:27,449 --> 00:04:36,389 things to change the only people who are 70 00:04:30,870 --> 00:04:42,270 going to do that for us is us no 71 00:04:36,389 --> 00:04:47,610 government no no politician or very few 72 00:04:42,270 --> 00:04:51,000 politicians George is an exception will 73 00:04:47,610 --> 00:04:54,630 do it for us we have to do it for 74 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:56,130 ourselves and this is why I am standing 75 00:04:54,630 --> 00:05:01,440 here tonight I never thought I would be 76 00:04:56,130 --> 00:05:05,550 I i will probably now alienate everybody 77 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:09,599 in the room by saying that in 1979 i was 78 00:05:05,550 --> 00:05:22,280 living in jeddah in saudi arabia and by 79 00:05:09,599 --> 00:05:27,150 proxy I voted for Margaret Thatcher so 80 00:05:22,280 --> 00:05:31,370 you can blame me and however having 81 00:05:27,150 --> 00:05:31,370 learned the error of my ways and 82 00:05:34,669 --> 00:05:38,150 that's

written I'm like to see Norman Baker do 123 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:48,390 that one so politics and hastings and 124 00:09:42,420 --> 00:09:50,880 rye I in my business background before I 125 00:09:48,390 --> 00:09:57,840 became a hippie I know I don't have hair 126 00:09:50,880 --> 00:10:00,030 but you know what I mean I studied and I 127 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:02,690 read a lot of books and actually I made 128 00:10:00,030 --> 00:10:07,730 a lot of money for a lot of other people 129 00:10:02,690 --> 00:10:14,130 working in marketing advertising and 130 00:10:07,730 --> 00:10:18,840 part of this part of this learning 131 00:10:14,130 --> 00:10:20,190 process gave me the opportunity to read 132 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:25,220 quite a lot of stuff that I wouldn't 133 00:10:20,190 --> 00:10:28,020 otherwise probably have read and among 134 00:10:25,220 --> 00:10:30,950 the you know Sunzu and the art of war 135 00:10:28,020 --> 00:10:33,960 and the 80s was a big thing where 136 00:10:30,950 --> 00:10:35,850 everybody went into the the Oriental way 137 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,620 of doing business and it was a Japanese 138 00:10:35,850 --> 00:10:39,810 book called miamor by miyamoto musashi 139 00:10:37,620 --> 00:10:44,520 called the book of five rings gorinna 140 00:10:39,810 --> 00:10:49,430 show which was all about combat and all 141 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:51,690 about how business could take the 142 00:10:49,430 --> 00:10:56,190 principles of the martial arts 143 00:10:51,690 --> 00:11:00,600 effectively and turn them into a way of 144 00:10:56,190 --> 00:11:01,300 doing business and one of the most 145 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,690 important 146 00:11:01,300 --> 00:11:08,050 things I learned from this was that the 147 00:11:04,690 --> 00:11:11,019 way to defeat your enemy is to use the 148 00:11:08,050 --> 00:11:13,420 same tools as your enemy but to use them 149 00:11:11,019 --> 00:11:15,430 better there is a Japanese phrase which 150 00:11:13,420 --> 00:11:20,050 which encapsulates this I can't remember 151 00:11:15,430 --> 00:11:22,870 it but this taking the tools of your 152 00:11:20,050 --> 00:11:26,440 enemy or of your competitor if you like 153 00:11:22,870 --> 00:11:30,490 and in in terms of enemy I mean the 154 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:36,010 Tories and possibly the Labour Party but 155 00:11:30,490 --> 00:11:40,060 certainly Mr Farage taking the tools of 156 00:11:36,010 --> 00:11:44,079 big business the way that big business 157 00:11:40,060 --> 00:11:46,570 works and turning them against big 158 00:11:44,079 --> 00:11:51,339 business and I'm talking about something 159 00:11:46,570 --> 00:11:57,010 called non the profit imagine if you 160 00:11:51,339 --> 00:12:01,510 would the idea of Facebook or JP Morgan 161 00:11:57,010 --> 00:12:05,399 the bank or Google operating as a 162 00:12:01,510 --> 00:12:08,970 non-profit now Mark Zuckerberg 163 00:12:05,399 --> 00:12:12,810 personally took eight billion dollars 164 00:12:08,970 --> 00:12:15,880 personally out of Facebook last year and 165 00:12:12,810 --> 00:12:17,709 he's not alone there are there are many 166 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:19,480 many many people who take this kind of 167 00:12:17,709 --> 00:12:20,529 money out of businesses but they also 168 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:23,110 leave an awful lot of money in 169 00:12:20,529 --> 00:12:25,480 businesses facebook I think made 34 170 00:12:23,110 --> 00:12:29,589 billion dollars altogether and imagine 171 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:33,610 that 34 billion dollars being used not 172 00:12:29,589 --> 00:12:40,630 to pay for Learjets and apartments and 173 00:12:33,610 --> 00:12:43,870 whatever but to pay for people to bring 174 00:12:40,630 --> 00:12:50,399 them up to a level where they have a 175 00:12:43,870 --> 00:12:54,730 sustainable enjoyable life not slaves 176 00:12:50,399 --> 00:12:57,880 which we currently are not downtrodden 177 00:12:54,730 --> 00:13:01,649 workers but people who can have 178 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:04,390 self-respect people who can enjoy their 179 00:13:01,649 --> 00:13:06,940 daily life without worrying about a 180 00:13:04,390 --> 00:13:10,550 knock on the door from a bailiff or from 181 00:13:06,940 --> 00:13:14,320 a policeman for not paying your TV 182 00:13:10,550 --> 00:13:16,790 and I know George's is a protest 183 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,740 George's is a protest but there are 184 00:13:16,790 --> 00:13:21,980 people who can't bloody afford a TV 185 00:13:18,740 --> 00:13:25,339 licence and when they get the knock on 186 00:13:21,980 --> 00:13:27,140 the door the 178 quid or whatever it is 187 00:13:25,339 --> 00:13:29,510 that the television licence costs 188 00:13:27,140 --> 00:13:31,790 suddenly becomes a thousand pounds and 189 00:13:29,510 --> 00:13:34,579 then they have a bailiff coming to get 190 00:13:31,790 --> 00:13:39,320 the thousand pounds and it becomes 6,000 191 00:13:34,579 --> 00:13:45,290 pounds and they're on benefits this is 192 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:50,930 wrong and there is enough business in 193 00:13:45,290 --> 00:13:54,649 this country to sustain a large number 194 00:13:50,930 --> 00:13:58,490 of nonprofit organizations and this is 195 00:13:54,649 --> 00:14:01,910 what i plan to do here in this town in 196 00:13:58,490 --> 00:14:06,290 this region in hastings and rye i have 197 00:14:01,910 --> 00:14:08,029 so far secured investment for the first 198 00:14:06,290 --> 00:14:10,670 of these or the first two of these 199 00:14:08,029 --> 00:14:17,350 operations because they're quite closely 200 00:14:10,670 --> 00:14:20,029 linked once these are running smoothly 201 00:14:17,350 --> 00:14:26,079 they will be businesses which employ 202 00:14:20,029 --> 00:14:31,630 local people doing local jobs producing 203 00:14:26,079 --> 00:14:35,510 goods services those people will be paid 204 00:14:31,630 --> 00:14:38,240 not the minimum wage and not the living 205 00:14:35,510 --> 00:14:41,720 wage because the business model allows 206 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:45,079 for everybody in that organization to 207 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:47,390 earn the living wage plus ten percent so 208 00:14:45,079 --> 00:14:50,870 10 pounds 20 an hour this is perfectly 209 00:14:47,390 --> 00:14:55,520 achievable in absolutely every business 210 00:14:50,870 --> 00:14:57,470 in this country and it's achievable by 211 00:14:55,520 --> 00:15:00,470 reducing the level of profits that get 212 00:14:57,470 --> 00:15:02,959 taken out of business if you have a 213 00:15:00,470 --> 00:15:05,350 number of imagine JP Morgan is a 214 00:15:02,959 --> 00:15:05,350 nonprofit 215 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:12,880 no just really imagine imagine jpmorgan 216 00:15:09,710 --> 00:15:17,900 the investment bank as a nonprofit 217 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:23,810 organization what could you do with 46 218 00:15:17,900 --> 00:15:27,490 billion dollars you could change the 219 00:15:23,810 --> 00:15:33,830 world according to Oxfam it will take 20 220 00:15:27,490 --> 00:15:37,850 9.1 million a billion to bring every 221 00:15:33,830 --> 00:15:40,460 person in the world out of poverty that 222 00:15:37,850 --> 00:15:44,090 that's an annual figure now if you 223 00:15:40,460 --> 00:15:49,060 imagine somebody who lives in no rural 224 00:15:44,090 --> 00:15:52,610 Lahore they live on a dollar a day a 225 00:15:49,060 --> 00:15:56,600 dollar a day and that is the minimum 226 00:15:52,610 --> 00:15:59,630 wage for that area here we have whatever 227 00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:02,090 it is six pounds 20 or something that is 228 00:15:59,630 --> 00:16:04,400 our subsistence level minimum wage 229 00:16:02,090 --> 00:16:10,100 introduced strangely enough by Tony 230 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:14,390 Blair the man who merged capitalism with 231 00:16:10,100 --> 00:16:17,990 socialism to produce more rich left 232 00:16:14,390 --> 00:16:19,940 wings champagne socialists I the only 233 00:16:17,990 --> 00:16:21,980 socialist thing that he did was to 234 00:16:19,940 --> 00:16:25,340 introduce a minimum minimum wage but he 235 00:16:21,980 --> 00:16:28,970 made it so low that it's untenable for 236 00:16:25,340 --> 00:16:33,590 anybody to live on what I want to do 237 00:16:28,970 --> 00:16:36,470 here is to build a series of nonprofit 238 00:16:33,590 --> 00:16:40,670 organizations covering services which 239 00:16:36,470 --> 00:16:44,560 people can use locally providing jobs 240 00:16:40,670 --> 00:16:48,890 for people locally with sustainable 241 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:52,670 incomes no zero hour contracts because 242 00:16:48,890 --> 00:16:54,980 they suck zero-hour contract is is worth 243 00:16:52,670 --> 00:16:59,420 nothing not even worth the paper it's 244 00:16:54,980 --> 00:17:01,940 not written on the whole purpose of what 245 00:16:59,420 --> 00:17:05,870 I'm trying to do is to take the 246 00:17:01,940 --> 00:17:10,160 principles of capitalism if you like and 247 00:17:05,870 --> 00:17:13,010 turn them back on capitalism to say okay 248 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:16,490 we may never have a competitor for 249 00:17:13,010 --> 00:17:19,160 Google in Hastings because they are a 250 00:17:16,490 --> 00:17:19,600 monstrous worldwide global conglomerate 251 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:23,230 and now 252 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:27,419 own pretty much everything but what we 253 00:17:23,230 --> 00:17:31,120 can have here is smaller sustainable 254 00:17:27,419 --> 00:17:34,090 organizations which provide jobs which 255 00:17:31,120 --> 00:17:39,150 provide incomes which allow people to 256 00:17:34,090 --> 00:17:41,500 have the self-respect from going to work 257 00:17:39,150 --> 00:17:43,120 you apparently get self-respect from 258 00:17:41,500 --> 00:17:46,110 going to work on earning five pounds an 259 00:17:43,120 --> 00:17:48,940 hour I'm not sure how that's possible 260 00:17:46,110 --> 00:17:52,630 where is the self-respect in being paid 261 00:17:48,940 --> 00:17:53,830 five pounds an hour it you don't want to 262 00:17:52,630 --> 00:17:56,830 go to work you don't want to get up in 263 00:17:53,830 --> 00:18:01,240 the morning let alone go to work people 264 00:17:56,830 --> 00:18:03,970 need everybody needs an opportunity to 265 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:06,970 be able to lift themselves out of the 266 00:18:03,970 --> 00:18:10,960 situation that they are in and to 267 00:18:06,970 --> 00:18:14,799 improve things and as I said change is 268 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:19,000 inevitable but if you look for that 269 00:18:14,799 --> 00:18:22,030 change within the Tory party the Labour 270 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:25,080 Party or any major party you won't get 271 00:18:22,030 --> 00:18:28,150 it because they want business as usual 272 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:32,100 that's all they want they want business 273 00:18:28,150 --> 00:18:34,480 as usual a return to traditional values 274 00:18:32,100 --> 00:18:36,429 yes so let's open some bloody work 275 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:39,460 houses and go back to Victorian times 276 00:18:36,429 --> 00:18:43,570 because that's where we're going and if 277 00:18:39,460 --> 00:18:46,570 we as a group of people do not stand up 278 00:18:43,570 --> 00:18:48,100 and say okay we're not having this you 279 00:18:46,570 --> 00:18:52,120 might do it in Westminster but you're 280 00:18:48,100 --> 00:18:54,039 not doing it in my bloody town keep it 281 00:18:52,120 --> 00:18:56,740 in Westminster go and argue about who's 282 00:18:54,039 --> 00:18:59,950 got the biggest nose or whose thi is the 283 00:18:56,740 --> 00:19:02,020 nicest or who messed up the National 284 00:18:59,950 --> 00:19:04,000 Health Service they spend so much time 285 00:19:02,020 --> 00:19:05,260 talking about who messed up the National 286 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,450 Health Service they don't have any time 287 00:19:05,260 --> 00:19:09,520 left do anything about sorting out the 288 00:19:07,450 --> 00:19:11,140 National Health Service all they're 289 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:15,210 doing is pointing fingers and blaming 290 00:19:11,140 --> 00:19:21,610 each other so I want to take a 291 00:19:15,210 --> 00:19:24,039 capitalist approach making money yeah 292 00:19:21,610 --> 00:19:27,309 nothing wrong with making money but 293 00:19:24,039 --> 00:19:29,950 making money not to go in my pocket and 294 00:19:27,309 --> 00:19:32,679 not to go in shareholders pockets 295 00:19:29,950 --> 00:19:33,430 because the shareholders of the 296 00:19:32,679 --> 00:19:36,690 nonprofit 297 00:19:33,430 --> 00:19:39,580 other people work for the nonprofit and 298 00:19:36,690 --> 00:19:41,980 my intention with certainly with the 299 00:19:39,580 --> 00:19:43,320 first organization that I will be 300 00:19:41,980 --> 00:19:50,110 launching and it's a music-related 301 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:53,430 organization my intention is that no 302 00:19:50,110 --> 00:19:57,190 employee where the director or otherwise 303 00:19:53,430 --> 00:19:59,320 will earn more than the national average 304 00:19:57,190 --> 00:20:02,740 wage which is currently twenty-six and a 305 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:05,310 half thousand pounds and everybody even 306 00:20:02,740 --> 00:20:08,310 the cleaner will learn ten pounds 20 now 307 00:20:05,310 --> 00:20:13,170 this is my vision not just for one 308 00:20:08,310 --> 00:20:13,170 organization but for many organizations 309 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:25,270 and and you are the people that can help 310 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:28,210 to make this happen you really really 311 00:20:25,270 --> 00:20:29,950 are I am amazed three months ago there 312
