Neil to BBC uh and Co Joe Coburn 24 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:55,199 recently had to apologize for some of 25 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:58,359 the sloppiest journalism I've ever seen 26 00:00:55,199 --> 00:01:01,680 on the BBC what's happening to Global uh 27 00:00:58,359 --> 00:01:03,000 editorial standards and why is RT RT 28 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,479 seems to be leading the way at this 29 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:09,119 point well quite and it's no accident 30 00:01:05,479 --> 00:01:11,280 the RT is uh is rapidly becoming one of 31 00:01:09,119 --> 00:01:15,200 the world's greatest news sources the 32 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:18,119 more uh ordure that's heaped upon it by 33 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:20,799 Western journalists uh the faster its 34 00:01:18,119 --> 00:01:22,479 audience grows and in several languages 35 00:01:20,799 --> 00:01:24,840 Dr Johnson the great English man of 36 00:01:22,479 --> 00:01:27,119 letters said there's no dictatorship 37 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:29,520 more Grim than the dictatorship of the 38 00:01:27,119 --> 00:01:31,040 prevailing Orthodoxy and what we're 39 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:34,079 seeing now now is the prevailing 40 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:37,280 Orthodoxy falling apart that explains 41 00:01:34,079 --> 00:01:40,159 the worldwide appetite for your take on 42 00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:42,479 things to a slightly lesser degree the 43 00:01:40,159 --> 00:01:45,040 appetite for my take on matters 44 00:01:42,479 --> 00:01:47,040 political and the proliferation of 45 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:49,320 alternative media let's talk about 46 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:51,119 prevailing Orthodoxy for a second uh you 47 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:54,240 had me up in Bradford West talking to 48 00:01:51,119 --> 00:01:57,159 your constituent say it's it's a it's 49 00:01:54,240 --> 00:02:01,000 it's primarily Muslim constituency and 50 00:01:57,159 --> 00:02:02,880 um had a great time speaking speak about 51 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:05,520 banking system and fraud in the banking 52 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:07,920 system and of course I'm getting into 53 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:09,640 cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin and we 54 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:12,319 talked a little bit about this it seems 55 00:02:09,640 --> 00:02:15,080 to me that if the labor movement failed 56 00:02:12,319 --> 00:02:16,280 and monetarism failed as now widely 57 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,720 understood people are saying Central 58 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:20,400 Bank era is over it failed we're 59 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,959 entering into a period of crypto and one 60 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,720 of the easiest ways to use 61 00:02:21,959 --> 00:02:25,640 cryptocurrency in Bitcoin and startcoin 62 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:28,080 that we use at start join is in the 63 00:02:25,640 --> 00:02:29,640 remittance Market my my question to you 64 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:32,920 and we we talked about a little bit up 65 00:02:29,640 --> 00:02:35,599 there in Bradford West but isn't Bitcoin 66 00:02:32,920 --> 00:02:37,640 a an ingenious way to improve people's 67 00:02:35,599 --> 00:02:39,159 Financial lot in life all over this 68 00:02:37,640 --> 00:02:40,480 country especially in the remittance 69 00:02:39,159 --> 00:02:42,800 Market because the cost of sending 70 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:44,120 remittances back to various countries 71 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,680 people are coming here and working and 72 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:50,200 sending it back is is virtually zero and 73 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:51,599 as you as an MP in the House of Commons 74 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,480 are you looking at this is this 75 00:02:51,599 --> 00:02:54,120 something you can take to your 76 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:57,120 constituents what do you think I'm 77 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:59,840 grateful to you for teaching me about 78 00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:03,120 this and the first time you tried to I 79 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:05,519 fell asleep because it was over my head 80 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:08,400 I had never heard of Bitcoin when you 81 00:03:05,519 --> 00:03:11,000 came on my then radio show uh talking 82 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:13,480 about it but little by little I've come 83 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:16,200 to realize that you are right and you 84 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:19,440 are nowhere more right than on the issue 85 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:23,440 of remittances 40% of my constituents 86 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:26,720 almost 38% of my constituents are people 87 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:29,319 of South Asian extraction almost every 88 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:32,120 one of them is regularly sending money 89 00:03:29,319 --> 00:03:35,319 back to their own families uh back in 90 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:38,040 the subcontinent or to pay bills for 91 00:03:35,319 --> 00:03:40,159 property they have and so on and they're 92 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:43,280 paying through the nose in order to do 93 00:03:40,159 --> 00:03:47,000 so uh if they're doing it top dollar 94 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:48,760 they're doing it in very uh exploitative 95 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:51,080 uh channels or if they're doing it 96 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:53,120 Bottom Dollar sometimes the guy on the 97 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:55,760 money exchange just shuts the doors and 98 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:58,280 runs away and they lose all their money 99 00:03:55,760 --> 00:04:00,319 but your idea it's not just yours of 100 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:04,239 course but you've popularized it 101 00:04:00,319 --> 00:04:08,439 of transferring at zero cost uh by 102 00:04:04,239 --> 00:04:11,879 Bitcoin uh is so obvious even I have now 103 00:04:08,439 --> 00:04:15,280 begun to see it so I'm actually prizing 104 00:04:11,879
