UK Column News - 2nd Feburary 2026

0:00Tyler Reddick here from 2311 Racing. Victory Lane? Yeah, it's even better with Chumba by my side. Race to chumpacaceno.com, let's Chumba. No purchase necessary, VTW Group, voidware prohibited by law, CTNCs, 21 Plus, sponsored by Chumba Casino. Good afternoon. Today is Monday, the 2nd of February, 2026, just after 1 o'clock. Welcome to UK Column Use. I'm your host, Brian Gerasch, delighted to have been rooving with me at the studio. We're especially pleased to have Vanessa Bealee joining us today from Lebanon, so welcome, Vanessa. Now, much going on in the world, and as always, UK Column is going to dive in as deeply as we can, but hopefully in some different directions from other news channels. Today, we're going to be having a look at the Epstein story and the bearing of bad news.

1:01Vanessa's going to be reporting about what's happening inside it, Ron. Then you're having a look at machinations of modern Britain. We're also going to be having a little look, a brief look at Nigel Frage's reform, which is allegedly setting up a Jewish alliance. Ben is going to be on the subject of corporate state capture. Vanessa will be looking at Mossad connections with Iran, and we're going to be ending with extremism and the great replacement. So if we get started today, essentially, we're going to have a look at what's happening in the world, and even the BBC's having problems, as you'll see from a little clip in a minute. But let's kick off with perhaps a surprising image of the twin towers under attack, a few seconds before they started collapsing. And why have we brought this up on screen today? Well, this was the caption really that goes with it,

2:03a good day to bury bad news. And if you don't know what this story is about, it goes back to 20, sorry, 2009. And what was happening was that in 2001, a Labour aid Joe Moore was facing criticism after she said the attacks on the towers were a good day to bury bad news that was coming out of the Labour party. So let's just take this into the present time. We think at the moment we're seeing not only a good day, but a good period to bury the Epstein story under, of course, the dark clouds of a coming war with Iran. So just have a think about that, which is leading which, are they connected? We'll see in today's news. Or is the Epstein story being used as a distraction for something else? Absolutely. Well, first of all, let's kick off with a very soft BBC report.

3:04Let's see what they'd say about Epstein. Some bits starting to come out, particularly more kind of exchanges involving Andrew Mountbatten-Winzer, former Prince Andrew, of course, and his association with Jeffrey Epstein. And indeed, Gilley Maxwell, who's serving 20 years in prison for her, part in Epstein's crimes. We're also seeing some references to the former ambassador to Washington, Peter Mandelson, again sort of his relationship, which he's expressed regret over a number of times. And indeed, over which he lost his job here in Washington, when he was a cabinet minister back in 2009. Some Democrats in Congress, while in particular on the oversight committee who's been looking at this, are very unhappy with the amount of documents, even though there's huge amounts that are being released. They say a lot's being held back, justice departments say what they're holding back is stuff that would be, within Fringe People's Privacy,

4:07medical reports, things like child pornography, and images, other distressing images. And indeed, even with those with holdings, you do still have to sort of sign an age verification thing to get into the documents themselves, suggesting there is, you know, adult material in here. So in my mind, a pretty soft report from the BBC, but the key theme is it's Andy and Mandelson. These are the key people involved in this. There's no real look into the deeper structure of what's actually got on or while this information has taken so long to come out. Now, let's just contrast the BBC's software report there with this story of abuse. This is the finethy story, which the UK column has reported. And whilst the finethy abuse story, based up in Scotland, potentially with tens of thousands of little girls being abused, largely unreported. A couple of minor reports from the BBC,

5:08even though this particular abuse case seems to have links up to the highest echelons of the Scottish state and establishment. And we might ask a question here, is what is the link between the abuse of children and people in power? Well, of course, it's compromising material, compromise, and the ability to blackmail people to get them to do what a state or its powers want them to actually do. Now, David Scott and his conclusions in this article said that the connections around the finethy house abuse means influence, power, authority, and access. And he pointed out that the memories and testimonies emerging from the finethy girls so far provide evidence that those in power and authority in Scotland had access, terrible and brutish access to the tens of thousands of little glass-weagen girls who pass through finethy. But despite those numbers, the BBC hasn't reported,

6:10and we may well ask why, is it to protect the state? Now, in contrast to Donna Hughes' initial opening video from the BBC, let's just have a look at the report that came in from Todd Blanche, the US Deputy Attorney General as he talked about the release of information. Once again, Donald Trump's presidency is being dominated not by his policies in the White House, but what he did many years ago with Jeffrey Epstein. Today, a fresh tranche of millions of new documents were released by the Department of Justice. Today, we are producing more than three million pages, including more than 2,000 videos and 180,000 images. So it all sounds good, but the reality is it's taken a very long time to drag this information out of the American state. And even so, this is only roughly 50% of the documents that's actually helped.

7:10Now, is this all causing a problem? Yes, let's have a look at Laura Kuhnsberg talking about the issues of Epstein and what it means. Here we are on day two of trying to unravel this latest, enormous information that has burst out of the Epstein files on the other side of the Atlantic, and also a troubling allegation made by an American lawyer and an interview with the BBC that there is a second woman who has said she was trafficked but not to the UK for a sexual encounter with the former Prince Andrew. So, again, this has been another whirlwind of news where Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted pedophile, has been making headlines and making life very awkward and embarrassing for lots of other powerful people. On this Sunday's newscast. Hello, it's Pavley in the studio. It's Lauren Studio. And it's Henry at home. And in a few minutes, we will hear a length from Professor John Buu who we had on the TV this morning, but who's going to talk to us, I think, hopefully, in a very helpful way about all the bewildering things

8:13that are happening in the world. And he was the chief foreign policy adviser to Kiyostama, to Rishi Sunak, also to Boris Johnson. So, it's stand by for that because he's a really fascinating guy. And the Fleet Street night in historian Max Hastings was on Radio 4 with me saying, the thing we're all talking about, the Epstein files, is a circus, it's a freak show, because there is so much going on in the world that we should be talking about more. So, the odd Ben is just a freak show. He might embarrass a few people. Epstein might embarrass a few people high up in the US government. And we should ignore it. It's a difficult one, isn't it? Because which is covering which? Vanessa, let's bring you in, because, of course, whilst we now have this much of information about Epstein, what is certainly happening is another war unfolding in Iran. Maybe there's connections over to you. Yeah, I mean, it is very interesting that these files,

9:13although they were destined to be released, a suddenly released now, as Trump is building up his big, beautiful amada on the seaboarders with Iran. And so, basically, my report today, I've been speaking to a number of people inside Iran. The first video is Dr. Satirah Sadiqi, who's an assistant professor at Tehran University. And just through this section, it's fine if people think, well, this can also be propaganda. But I think my point is, why aren't these perspectives just as in Syria they were disappeared? Why are these perspectives never taken into account or never presented to you for you to draw your own conclusions by the likes of the BBC? So let's just hear Satirah basically speaking about life in Iran under these constant attacks by Israel and by... We have tested our resistance.

10:14We have always come out of it, but it's very painful. And it has an impact on the society. Sometimes, at some point, it becomes very not only just traumatizing, but also very exhausting. I've heard this from a lot of Iranians. Why don't they just leave us alone? Let us live the life that we have. It's never going to happen. We know it's never going to happen. We're not going to get a break from any of the various specific Russians that's sometimes at sanctions, it's assassinations, it's terrorist groups being armed. It's hijacking protests and turning them into healing sprees, like what we have seen. Sometimes it's direct actions, like what we saw in the 12-day war, but we never take... When we never get a break from all the oppression, but yeah, an oppression.

11:18And this I have to say is the view of the huge majority of Iranians in Iran when one actually looks at their social media or actual Iranian media, not media that is effectively produced by Mossad, the CIA and the MI6. Then I want to look at this article by Jonathan Kirk, a very renowned journalist based in Occupied Palestine. This was written a few days ago. The BBC pushes the case for an illegal war in Iran with even bigger lies than trumps, which is a pretty big claim. But let's have a look at what he says in the text of the article itself. So it's diplomatic correspondent Caroline Hawley starts by credulously amplifying a fantastical death toll of tens of thousands of dead from recent protests in Iran. Figures provided by regime opponents. Contrast that with the BBC's constant two years of caution and downplaying of the numbers killed in Gaza by Israel.

12:18The idea that in a few days, Iranian security forces managed to kill as many Iranians as Israel has managed to kill Palestinians in Gaza from the prolonged carpet bombing and leveling of the tiny enclave as well as the starvation of its population, beggars belief. The figures sound patently ridiculous because they are patently ridiculous. And then I want to just show this report, which was about two weeks ago. I think it was on the 10th of January, just as the protests that hijacked the genuine labor movement in Iran that had been ongoing peacefully since the first of January. It gathered violence and the rioters joined the protests on around the, I think it was the 8th of January. So let's just play how the BBC are reporting on this. Irfan Sultani's family say he scheduled to be executed by the authorities in Iran sometime tomorrow. He's 26 and the decision is apparently final.

13:21There's no appeal. We don't know the charges, but if the death sentence is carried out, it's believed it may be the first following Iran's brutal crackdown on anti-government dissent after more than two weeks of nationwide street protests. Human rights organizations are warning his case could signal the start of mass executions targeting demonstrators. So I mean, totally alarmist and unsubstantiated claims there from Iranian media, Iran's judiciary rejects the fabricated news by hostile media about the death penalty for the rioter Irfan Sultani. Let's have a quick look at the BBC headlines on a Google search around the same time. You can basically see there they are not dropping this story. Trump warns a very strong action if Iran executes protesters. Trump vows very strong action, et cetera, et cetera.

14:21So you would assume this was a feta-complete that Irfan Sultani is about to be executed. And in fact, at that point he should have already been executed. And then let's have a look at what happened in the last 24 hours. While Iranian protestor Irfan Sultani was released on bail, reports say quite extraordinary that the BBC will add this to raise doubt over the story, which is helpably true, whereas when they're reporting on amplified numbers of deaths at the hands of the Iranian government, of course, there's no doubt over that. Then I just want to basically play another section from my conversation with Satura, where she talks about the level of violence coming from the rioters themselves. He said that he could still smell blood from all the hours that he spent in the hospital treating wounded people

15:21and that they were stabbed and some of them, like the attackers twist a knife inside the body, poking out parts, it's very graphic, it's very violent. And he was like, I don't know if Iran, I mean, I can't believe that Iranians can do this to their own, you know, the flow of Iranians. It's just impossible. It's very, it's very strange. And I think I don't know how that's possible. Part of it, because there are videos of these attackers using drugs before starting the attack, because I don't think a normal person can do that. And there is also, I mean, this is also something that has happened before in other countries. So yeah, the pictures are very violent. They have killed police officers or besieged forces and then after killing them, they have chopped the bodies,

16:21they have set them on fire. It's something that I've not even, I had not even heard. And... This is something I'm also hearing from other people that the rioters themselves had been given a capsicone prior to the violence escalating. And of course, that was very similar to what happened previously in Syria. Then another BBC headline more recently, we all know someone who was killed, Iran protesters, tell BBC of brutal crackdown. And you remember last week we talked about the human rights activists in Iran that are not in Iran. They're funded by the CIA and they're based in Fairfax, Virginia. And then finally, I just want to play another section with Dr. Seterosadiki, where she talks about the claim by a number of media outlets and social media outlets backed by again, the more sad CIA and MI6, talking about the number of dead

17:23and basing it on a tag on one of the body bags that had the number on it of around 11,000. So let's hear her explanation. Then like a number tag on one of the body bags, which was like, I don't remember the exact number, but it was probably 11,000 or 12,000 something. I think 11,000 something. And then people were saying that, oh, see, in two days, they have killed 11,000 people. When in fact, and they got the head of the forensic to talk about it on TV. And they showed all the documents from the beginning of the Persian New Year. The Persian New Year started from 21st of March. So not everyone that comes to the more goes for the forensic and autopsy, because I mean, people who have died of natural causes don't need that and they come from hospitals and they directly are going to get prepared for the burial. But the bodies that need autopsy and the forensic analysis

18:28go to this particular section. And he was explaining that they put tag numbers from the beginning of the Persian New Year to the end. And normally during the year, about 15,000 bodies are referred to the forensics in Tehran. So the number that you were seeing was in the 10th month of the Persian calendar. So 11,000 had started. It was like after 10 months. Again, none of those contacts will ever be given to you or even investigated by the likes of the BBC. Vanessa, very true. But we're starting to see through the smoke and mirrors now and many people in our chat box today simply saying that BBC is scrabbling now to hold on to its reputation worldwide because it's getting easier and easier to see this blatant manipulation of politics of the news

19:30in order to do the bidding of the political masters and the pay masters of the BBC. We'll talk about this a lot more in UK column extra after the news. But just moving on, Ben, if the Iranians and other countries overseas are not safe and not least from Western bombing, are we safe here in UK or is something at work under the surface? That's a very good question. And when we talk about exporting democracy, what does that actually mean? What does that look like? So we're gonna look at the state of modern Britain through the lens of the Gordon and Denton Bio-Election, which is upcoming and specifically, the candidates of the four main political parties. I've not included the Lib Dems in that. I think a description of Maine. So we're gonna look at the Tories, Labour, Greens and Reform and who they're putting up and a bit of commentary on that. And then also towards the end of a bit of an examination as to what's going on behind the scenes. So we'll kick things off with the Tories who are kind of an also ram,

20:31which is remarkable given that they're in power until 18 months ago. Yeah, you know, most successful political party in the whole of history, I think. And they just put up Charlotte Cadden if we can get Charlotte up on screen. She was a police officer for 30 years in Manchester and for the Met and she set up and shared the police sex equality and equity network to challenge workplace discrimination based on sex. Classic Tories, they never changed, they really don't. She's also interested in the trustee of a charity called Sex Matters, which is founded by Maya Forstata, who is a member of British Friends of Israel, which is a recurring thing, which will come back to her in a moment. Before we do though, let's have a little look at Angelique Stodia, the Labour Party candidate. You do brilliant and exciting. And I want to thank everyone who came to the first things. I am a proud Mancunian woman. I have walked the streets of this constituency.

21:32This is about Manchester. Manchester is a city united. We are rejecting division. I am so looking forward to going out on the doorstep and winning this for Labour. Yeah. So what is this for Manchester? Well, she has got a little bit of an accent, I think. I could pick it up. You probably wouldn't, because you're the real deal. Well, you can't. You said we have a norther there, Brian. From North, anyway. She was not, well, I don't know how much of North where I was in there. She's Greek, so I don't know. Not many English people in British politics these days, anyway. And also, more importantly, putting that aside, she's got a very interesting professional background. So as well as being a Manchester City councillor and has been since 2012, she's also a stakeholder engagement and communication expert at Arup, who are a World Economic Forum strategic partner and heavily involved in the 15-minute cities,

22:33initiatives, the energy and transportation, transition that we've been forced into, the remodeling well, destruction and rebuilding of our city centres. And our societies? Absolutely, yes. You know, physical infrastructure is an expression of us as a people, ultimately. And Arup is absolutely involved in bulldozing that getting rid of it, engaging in these public-private partnerships. And then the question has to be, a labour really for working people. Do we ever think that they were? Certainly not in the past few years, anyway. No, well, I certainly don't think they are. I mean, Blair started it, didn't he? Yeah. With new labour, that is where the massive attack on the society communities in this country started. Indeed, indeed it did. But luckily, we do have some real working-class people in the mix, so let's have a little listen to Hannah Spencer from the Green Party. So I just found out that

23:36the far right are organising a little protest near me, this Sunday, at a hotel, and they've decided to do it at half past four, which feels a little bit odd considering them last first to be patriotic and all that, that they're chosen to do it when the lionesses are in the Euro's final. So I will be not attending myself because I'm definitely going to be in a pub in England. She's the real deal, isn't she? Then there's a lot of patriots. Dear idea. Yeah, and apparently she's a plasterer as well. And as you could tell from the plaster, the plastering that she was attempting to do, but it doesn't quite past the sniff test, actually, and a bunch of people have looked at this up on up on X and past coming on the work. And this one from an account saying, number one conclusion for that is if she can't plaster,

24:37that lump is never going on the wall. The plaster is completely dried out. It's no use. She also can't board out. So the boards on the wall behind they looked like they were done by a child. And actually, this whole thing looks like it's PR. Staged. Completely staged. Yes, this is a trick. And it's a trick designed to appeal to a certain type of person. And that's likely the non-working class and middle classes who perhaps idealise the concept of the working class hero but are repulsed by the actual working class. I think that's probably a very good assessment of Mrs. Spencer, Hannah Spencer, Green Party candidate. And then finally, we're going to spend a bit more time focusing on this because this is a biggie, actually, is the reform candidate announced by Nigel Farage, who are going to call Comrade Goodwin to Matt Goodwin. And when I saw this announced last week, it immediately made me think of this quote from Lenin,

25:39the best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves. And that is because Matt Goodwin is many things. He's a university professor. He was a big time substacker through the COVID period. I had a suspiciously large amount of money to spend on doing polling, I noticed. He was doing polling all the time and getting a huge audience on substack. And then about 18 months ago, he was elevated onto GB news. On Friday nights, a P-time show given a huge platform to lead the national conversation from the patriotic right for GB news, which was quite confusing because just 15 years ago, he was writing reports like this. Right response, understanding and countering populistic extremism in Europe. And you can see that there's a caution sign and the sign goes round to the right. So they're urging caution about people going round to the right. Really interesting. This is from Chatham House. And in the introduction from Robin Nibblet,

26:41the director of Chatham House, it says in recent years, populistic extremist parties have achieved notable breakthroughs in national and local elections across the European Union. Their rise poses a growing challenge to European societies, to mainstream political parties, and to the process of European integration itself. So in 2011, that's peak UKIP time, right? Absolutely. Right. So which would have been Nigel Farage? So you've got Goodwin essentially writing against Farage and the patriotic right. And then 15 years later, he turns up and he's being announced as a parliamentary candidate by Farage. Very confusing, right? Well, we say, I know why you say that. Very confusing, unless it is to lead Farage's reform in a very different direction to the place that most members think it's heading. Right. Exactly. Yeah, this is planned manipulation of the political system. Indeed, it is. I think that would certainly be my conclusion as well.

27:45Goodwin goes on to say, in his opening remarks in the report, and we'll provide a link to this by the way. You should go and read it. My assessment was that it sounded like it was being written from the perspective of someone in a position of imperial authority, looking down on the population and thinking about how to maneuver the different parts against each other. That was the sense I got on a first read here. And Goodwin here says, populist extremist parties peps present one of the most pressing challenges to European democracies. These parties share two cool features. They fiercely oppose immigration and rising ethnic and cultural diversity, which is what I think most reform supporters think reform is there to do. And then he goes on to say, and they pursue a populist anti-establishment strategy, which they certainly doing, Farage positions himself as the ultimate anti-establishment figure when he's really not tall. He's totally insider. The attacks, mainstream parties, and he's ambivalent, if not hostile towards liberal representative democracy. So that's what this report is set out to understand.

28:47And it was backed by this guy, Daniel Sacks, I'll come back to in a moment, but I'll just read the quote, which is that at a time when European societies are becoming increasingly diverse and prejudiced and hostility towards that diversity or growing, building new foundations for social cohesion will be a profound challenge for European citizens and mainstream political parties alike. It is my hope that this project can contribute to that important task. Sacks funded it and also provided close guidance and collaboration to the creation of the report that Goodwin actually thanks him for personally in the opening remarks. And the name Daniel Sacks for certainly regular viewers will be very familiar. I've spoken about him a lot, maybe less so recently, but he is a Swedish businessman, closely linked into Cham House as a senior advisor and the Council on Foreign Relations. He's also the investment chief at the Open Society Foundation. So he actually makes all of the investment decisions on behalf of George Soros, previously now Alex,

29:48Alex Soros, sorry, George Soros's son. He's also a young global leader of the World Economic Forum and he's also linked into the builder bird group via Marcus Wallenburg, who he's a close advisor to via Wallenburg investment. And he's also got his own foundation, very busy guy, very powerful man, Mr. Daniel Sacks. And the Daniel Sacks foundation focuses on what it calls funded activism. And we talked a lot about Apelitsky and Apelitsky Foundation, which he helped to establish and they are actively involved in retraining and reframing politicians and civil servants in over 170 countries, but they are partnered with the cabinet office and the UK government is essentially the test case, the laboratory for everything they're doing. And he also is involved in something called Multitudes Foundation, which I spoke about about 18 months ago and I'll put a link in the show notes to the reports. You can go and watch that back. And Multitudes Foundation, in its own words, provides political change makers in Europe with financial resources, strategic advice, practical support,

30:50and a community of practice to break through existing power structures. And it's specifically focused on supporting new immigrants into Europe, the so-called new Europeans that we were talking about last week. And with the new Europeans comes and impose new political agenda and a new nation state agenda. This is coming in very quickly. Well, destruction of the nation state and its replacement with a global neo-Marxist, technocratic dictatorship. That's global cities. Absolutely, it's what we're heading towards. And that is who Farage has put front and center in this biolection coming up at the end of the month, which does make the question, are they controlled opposition, which then begs the next question, which is if they are controlled opposition, who are they controlled by? Let's have a little listen to this clip. I want a national unifying politics which puts Britain first, not Pakistan, not Gaza, not any other foreign policy thing, Britain first.

31:50Not Israel? Well, not Israel. The media has just been talking about Israel and the idea for the last four or five days. That's what they talk about. You wouldn't think that high streets in this country are on the, you know, are on the way down or public services are doing well or people are struggling with their bills. I hear so much about Israel. Is that a fair point? Well, my personal view is Israel is a very close ally. Well, until recently, it was a very close ally of the United Kingdom, which you look after are allies. New question. Well, I reckon there's a lot of questions to be asked because this is becoming more and more obvious that there is a hidden hand interfering in UK politics, which is ultimately breaking down the whole of our constitutional and political structure and it's not going to end well for anybody in this country, wherever they've come from, whatever color. Absolutely, two final points or actually one final point, two slides on reform, which I just need to draw people's attention to, which relates to this guy, James Orr, who is a senior advisor to Nigel Farage.

32:51He's a professor at the University of Cambridge, a trustee of the Royal Discrete and Legacy Foundation. And he was very excited because he got to host Peter Teal at Cambridge for his anti-Christ lecture series. And this is what he's going on behind the scenes before, alongside all the other stuff that we just talked about. So we can be spending more time being nice to people and sorting people out at a kind human level. We're on to the anti-Christ. We'll save more discussion on that for UK column extra. Okay, thank you, thank you, Ben. Now, let's just say once again to our audience, wherever you are in the world, wherever you are in UK, huge thank you to everybody that's supporting us. We do need your financial support, not only to do what we're doing, but also to grow. And if we bring the magic button up on the screen, if you haven't visited the UK column website, you'll find a huge amount of material there, not only the news archives, but also many, many written articles and interviews.

33:52This is 20 years worth of material for you. It's a huge database. And if you join us as a member monthly or annual paid membership, you are part of the team. You're helping us not only do what we do, but to grow. And we're up against some monsters, the billion pounds of the BBC. If you want to challenge this corrupt mainstream media system that we've got in this country, then please support the UK column. Now, coming up tonight at 7 p.m., we've got German warfare. And he's having a look at the Twin Towers, an amazing coincidence. We started off with Twin Towers. But this lady who's husband died in Twin Towers. And the line here is the official story is a lie. So that should be very interesting. And tomorrow at 1 p.m., we've got Charles Mallett, interviewing Magda Taylor, having a look at the historical rise of vaccinations.

34:54And this is a very, very interesting subject. If you've never been there before, encourage you to have a look at that interview. Now, let's come back to Epstein. And just have a little look at in more detail around Epstein and what's happened and how it's been reported. And I'm going to jump straight in here with the BBC report. This was from yesterday. Second Epstein victim claims she was sent to the UK for sex with Andrew. The lawyer says, so Epstein, as far as the BBC's concerned, is Andrew. And they were very excited of photographs like this, which was Andrew over the prostrated body of a woman. At one point he's touching her abdomen, but there's no idea what the context of this is where it was taken. But I'm going to put this caption over the top of this that as more and more comes out in the Epstein case about Andrew, we are told to believe that nobody knew

35:57his police security team had no idea what was going on. So 15, the counter-terrorist branch had no idea. MI5, MI6, even the FBI and the CIA, nobody knew. Now, this is simply not credible. This is a mirror of what happened with Jimmy Savile where it was obvious that many, many people in the establishment absolutely did know what was going on. So Epstein, there is no doubt that what has happened is now being covered up in order to protect very powerful people in high places and high political places, both in the States and in UK. And of course, if we don't get the lid off this, there is no justice, either for the victims or for anybody else living in the world we do. And when we start to see connections between Epstein and Israel and a power base for fomenting wars in the world,

37:02more money for the global military machine, this is something that needs to be exposed and stopped as soon as possible. So a lot of work to be done and it's no good looking to the BBC because they don't want to investigate. Now, if we look at other reports, CBS news here, this is back from July 2025. Just give you a summary on screen. They're saying that the Justice Department and the FBI review finds no client list, perhaps, in nor evidence that he blackmailed prominent figures. And it concluded that Epstein did actually commit suicide. So this is a common line by the worldwide mainstream press. Nothing to see. It's all a bit of a storm in a teacup. We should ignore it when the reality is this is a trail that leads to depravity and corruption at the highest level of politics. Now, contrast CBS news with international business times here.

38:05This is a report from the 31st of July last year. X CIA agent explains why Epstein, maybe a secret Israeli agent and why the list will never be released. Now, part of the list has been released, but we know that's only 50%. And if we stamp this, the former CIA man, Kiryaku says in his mind the reason that nothing important is really being released is compromising material. This is the sort of image. This is the images or the scenes which allow people to be blackmailed to do the bidding of higher powers. So if that was the international business times, we can also have a look at MSN here. And here's the headline, evidence of Epstein's ties to Israeli intelligence grow. This is an opinion piece. But pulling out a little bit of it, the first paragraph here is talking

39:07about a very capable Iranian group called Handala. And what it's saying in this paragraph is that their work and reports were published and certainly seemed to hold credibility. And they reinforced this by saying that numerous independent media outlets, including reason, all sorts intelligent, grey zone, declassified and drop site were doing further analysis on the back of this and the trail was certainly pointing towards Israel. Now this article itself in MSN also highlights the fact that other sites were pooing this and anybody who was daring to point a finger at Israel or Mossad was being charged online with appalling behavior or it was something to do with Hitler and the Nazi party and apologizing for those terrible regimes.

40:10And it got into more and more speculation with a very defensive position for the Jewish community and Israel. So it's very clear that the worldwide media and Israel in particular desperate, desperate to deflect attention from Epstein and the scale of the abuse is going around him and also the nature of very powerful people connected with him. I'll just end this little comment on the media with this man, J. Caspian King, who was mentioned at the MSN article and he's quoted as saying on planet Epstein everything that happens, the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the war in Gaza, the suppression of speech for the Trump administration, proves the countries run by blackmail, Peter Filia and Phil T2 Israel. So this is nothing to see, it's all a load of nonsense, it's all fluff.

41:11And of course, as we started the news today, this is a key part of what we are seeing, the BBC and others trying to do is dismiss Epstein, it's a bit of froth when in fact it represents the heart of corruption and the abuse of women and children are part of that. Now, happily we have got senators speaking out about this back in July 2025. We are the Republican Senator Thomas Massey saying that the US public needs to know. He wasn't messing around, he was saying if the executive branch won't release phase two of the Epstein files, we will. Americans deserve transparency in the victims, deserve justice. This is the header for his ex account. And if we come up to date, he's recently posted this, which says that within hours of the Epstein file release a super PAC funded by Israel, Israel first billionaires Miriam Adelson

42:11and Paul Singh and John Paulson, who himself appears in Epstein's black book, brought another $800,000 of TV ads against me, to which we asked the question, why should this be if there's nothing to see and what Epstein was involved in. But here in the UK, back in 2014, the UK column was warning about the penetration of Israel into the very heart of government. And this was the network around the Cabinet Office and Francis Ward in office of that time, showing that Israeli Defense Force Unit 800 was going to be linked in with a group of leading digital organizations both in UK and Israel and that universities in UK were going to be linked to universities in Israel. And there was going to be a substantial increase in the sharing of sensitive, not only cyber,

43:12but government security information within Israel. None of this, of course, debated in the House. And if I add to this and going back to about the same period, UK column unleashed this network when Malcolm Riffkin shared the intelligence and security committee and declared conservative friend of Israel was sat for being involved with corruption amongst some corporations. But at the time, he was interfacing with Foreign Secretary William Hague, declared conservative friend of Israel and Prime Minister David Cameron, conservative friend of Israel, but also the Prime Minister, who said that his belief in Israel is unshakable. And he's proud of the key role that conservative friends of Israel plays within our party. So do we live simply in UK, or we actually in a dual state with Israel, certainly appears to us, it's the latter, but of course none of this declared in Parliament.

44:14Now, the BBC, not investigating these areas, but BBC getting very, very excited that the Epstein files have released brought links into, sorry, to the Norwegian court and royalty. So his headline, rape tropics, Norway's raw family in unwelcome glare of the public, the blond gentleman on screen is Marius Borg, who he be. And he's facing 38 charges, including the rape of four women. He's not actually a member of the Norwegian raw family, but he's very close to it. It's a step, some relationship. But what the BBC got excited about was emails indicating the Crown Princess Mede Murray had actually been staying at Epstein's House in Palm Beach. So the BBC, very, very excited by this.

45:16And that's what they're going to focus on. They're not going to look into the compromise issue and people in high places and politics being manipulated. So we just come back to that MSN article, evidence of Epstein's ties to Israeli intelligence growing. And we ask a question, what sort of compromising material would Epstein's handlers want? And there's only one answer to that, and it's deviant sex and preferably child abuse because those two things give ultimate and total control over an individual. So would he be doing this in order to control politicians and influence American and British foreign policy? The answer is yes, and that is how we would do it. Vanessa, let's bring you back on screen with us because I've set the scene. Many people deeply concerned about Epstein's relationships. Israel is somewhere there in the background.

46:18I don't know what you'd like to say about this. Well, I would disagree there in the background. I would say they're very much center stage and front of stage right now as they should be, of course. And I'm going to stick with the Israel theme with who is behind the recent riots. And of course, who is basically driving for war against Iran or at least regime change in Iran? Now, the other day it was interesting. I think it was yesterday. This came up in my feed on X. So it sort of drew my attention to it. Let's just have a look at this. So he's basically saying, this is Casey Bab. I have no idea who he is. He's basically reiterating support for the Iranian rioters. And at the end, he says, your fight is my fight. So this sort of piqued my curiosity. So I went to his profile page on X, which revealed this.

47:20Now, if you can just keep it on the screen while I just run through the organizations that he admits to being involved in. So first of all, it's the MacDonald Laurier Institute, but he heads up a promised land project, which I'm sure doesn't take any sort of enormous intelligence or intellectual capability to figure out what that is related to. And then basically the INSS, which is the National Security Studies Institution in Tel Aviv, Israel. He's also connected to Russia. He's an advisor to data doctors. Now, what does that mean? Doctors against racism and anti-semitism. Guess what? Now, that refers me again back to the campaign for anti-semitism that, of course, is targeting British doctors in the NHS for daring to protest genocide. I wonder if a similar organization to Doro is going to suddenly appear in the UK might be something to look out for.

48:23He's also a former advisor to two defense ministers in Canada, and apparently his views are his own. So I just took this screenshot from one of many that I found online to demonstrate exactly who thought the KC-Bab is. If we just have a look at this next screenshot. So this is from one of his many affiliated websites for the love of Zion thought KC-Bab. Zionism is not conquest apparently, despite two years of intensified genocide in Gaza and in the West Bank. It's the greatest indigenous success story in human history. Well, there's an awful lot there that we can probably talk about in action, but of course I would contest that. And then if you have any remaining doubt about who is behind these riots, who's pushing for the destabilization in Iran, let's hear from Mr Netanyahu. This was on the 10th of January. So the rioters were in place from the 8th until the 10th.

49:25So here he's coming in when Iran had managed to shut down the internet and actually shut down Stalin funnily enough as soon as they did that, the riots actually stopped, the violence stopped. So let's hear, he's obviously now trying to push them back onto the streets. There is nowhere in the Middle East, Israel cannot reach. There's nowhere we will not go to protect our people and protect our country. With every passing moment, the regime is bringing you the noble Persian people closer to the abyss. The vast majority of Iranians know their regime doesn't care a wit about them. If it did care, if it cared about you, it would stop wasting billions of dollars on feudal wars across the Middle East. It would start improving your lives. Imagine if all the vast money the regime wasted on nuclear weapons and foreign wars were invested in your children's education

50:26and improving your health care. Now that's a very important point actually because people may not be aware that education in Iran is free and health care is free. I wonder if that can be said about the state of Israel. But this is complete projection, of course, from Netanyahu because who is starting the wars in the Middle East, who is creating destabilization? Again, we can talk more about this in extra. And this is a video that I highly recommend that people watch. I've also included in the show notes an interview that I did with Iranian. Actually, he has a master's in AI and robotic. Sorry, could I just have that on the screen? Thank you. And basically, he also confirms the fact that even Mossad-Frasi accounts, Persian accounts are talking about their involvement quite openly

51:28in the riots in Iran. I recommend this video. It will be in the show notes. It's two hours long, but it goes into huge depth about Israel's backing of the protests, what really happened in Iran riots or protests. And then finally, if you think it's all Israel, no, it isn't, but this is Mike Pompeo, the former Secretary of State under Trump's first administration, talking to, I think it's Channel 13 on Israeli TV, about the U.S. involvement alongside Israel. So let's just play this. President Trump said, help is in the way. Iranian went to the street, but help didn't come. Do you think till now, the Trump administration lost an opportunity for a regime change during this uprising? No, I don't think so. That by the way, help did come. Well, that's okay. You may not see it all.

52:29We may not know about it all, but I'm very confident that the United States is actively trying to do all that it can to support the Iranian people. Well, I don't think there's very much ambiguity about that. Funnily enough, not reported by the BBC, of course. Of course. Thank you for that, Vanessa. Well, let's just end this little section, which is on Friday. I had several people contact me asking about the facts that reform UK had apparently set up a Jewish alliance group. Now, I did quite a bit of work over the weekend and trying to track down the sources for this and the key sources the Jewish news. And they had had line here, Nigel Farage's reform party is launching Jewish alliance and friends of Israel groups. Now, my question was, the question to myself, was this information true? I couldn't find any direct sources on the Jewish news.

53:29I couldn't find other sources on the internet. And it appears that the Jewish news is the only news source running this story. Now, that is a credible source itself. They have a good reputation for accuracy of reports in some areas at least. However, we couldn't find anything else that supported it. And we did a check before we started the news today and we couldn't find reform talking about it. So is this something where there was a leak of information reform and it's going to happen? Or is this something that the press is trying to wind up in order to force reform to do it? We'll see whether we can get more information. But what we can tell you is in the background, Mr. Tyce has been helping run a heart some minds clearly aimed at the Jewish community. So he's been visiting UK's Jewish security trusts and organization which functions as a private Jewish security organization alongside the UK's police intelligence

54:33and counter terrorism units. So we'll just leave that as declared. What is reform up to? We're not too sure at the moment, but we'll stay on the case. And Ben, I think that brings us back to you. Indeed it does, yes. Last week, Brian mentioned on two occasions, I think, the Institute for Government event where an announcement was made about the transformation of the centre of government, the civil service and the ambition to move fast and fix things. That's what they were talking about. So we heard about the civil service, the political component to this. Let's have a little listen to Alexander Ayasad from the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change talking about the private sector's response. Head to the eye, we believe Britain has a unique opportunity to reimagine with public services around a new model. Personalised preventative always on.

55:34I've just attended a speech by Darren Jones, Chief Secretary to the Prime Minister, and I'm delighted to say his seems to agree with us. He spoke powerfully about the need to replace the legacy state and build a new consensus for what government does and how it does it. To drive this scale of reform, it is absolutely central at the civil service as the right skills, the right people and the right processes to deliver this change. The Chief Secretary announced a number of changes to training, performance management and hiring, all of which we welcome. What matters now is that these pieces connect to a genuinely radical program of change to create a civil service that can serve the British people well. Change and more change. Oh, nothing but change. From the bottom up, they're going to fix the foundations. Well, I think the foundations are probably okay. They're going to switch them out anyway because they don't like them. And they're going to move to a personalised preventative

56:34and always on state. That's what they're pushing towards. Personalised means they know each of us at an individual level and that's all predicated on the use of a digital ID system. Preventative means they're going to intervene with you before you do something that they don't like and always on means it's always on. And then this is the penopticon that we've been talking about over the past couple of weeks. And it's a surprise, surprise that the policy agenda lines up with what Tony Blair Institute would recommend because Blair has been driving this agenda for the past 25 years, right? Who would have thought it? That guy is fascinating. Alexander, I said, let's bring him on screen quickly. I've spoken about him previously fascinating individual. Like who are you, I said? You know, you supplies to many of these policy people here out of nowhere, they're very powerful. And if you say, who exactly are they? And what do they believe in? Do they believe in UK as a national state? Yeah.

57:34It's clear they don't and this man has a special feature. He certainly does, yeah. And he's very young. So I think he's probably early 30s. And he's in and out of top level policy conversations in the UK, in Washington, in different busy Europe, probably I would imagine in Ukraine. And he actually, if we can get that back on screen, we can see from his ex profile, although he's changed this recently, I will just blow this up so we can see it. At the bottom right hand side there, it says he's a citizen of nowhere. How can you be a citizen of nowhere? You're a free floating globalist. You don't align with any state. You go wherever you're going to be paid and feel comfortable. I guess so. And I think he's telling us that he's Jewish, like there's a six point in style there as well. So it would appear so. But I asked him that on one of his LinkedIn posts, I said, Alexander, you've said you're a citizen of nowhere. So why are you dictating British policy? Obviously he didn't reply to that,

58:35but I think it's quite a good question. So anyway, what was he referring to? So he's actually been, as I said, defining policy, this was last week and asked this report from the Blair Institute Public Service Reform and the age of AI. So this is about transformative reform. Using AI as a multiplier, which means making the state a lot more powerful, ultimately, all predicated on the digital ID system that will allow them to govern with foresight. So they'll be able to make projections into the future and deliver interventions. Obviously, all of which are presented as about care and health and all that kind of thing. But actually, it's not. It's about manipulation and control absolutely across the board. And they were going to get the population to build this. So this would be built from the bottom up, which is how these things are always built. And obviously we have to pay for the creation of this penopticon. And it is about replacing the foundations of our society. They're saying that the foundations are currently are crumbling. We've got to replace them completely

59:37and create a new set of public services that are going to be delivering against all of these criteria. And actually, this isn't in the future. This is happening right now. I talked about this other report that they issued back at the end of 2024 about tackling behavior, the behavior challenge in England schools since controlling the minds of your children. And the fact that they've actually in the London borough of Barking and Dagonham, they always use the central London boroughs as laboratories for building these new systems. Barking and Dagonham has been absolutely decimated over the past 25 years with the closure of the Ford plant and waves and waves of mass immigration. And they've built this thing called a one-view system for case management. And that synthesizes more than 80 data streams, 30 million records a month from loads of different places. And it uses that information to give practitioners a single view of children and their families so that they can look out for you. And this already exists, right?

1:00:38So this will then be part of this always on preventative personalized state. And that's all going to be built by partners to people like the Blair Foundation, like Oracle Google, whoever else it might be, right? And that is the carve-up that is not going to happen, has already happened in the back end of the British system. And it is just a feeding frenzy for private sector interests. And one of which jumped out of me over the weekend, I had a few people send me this example of PWC of all people. We've got absolutely no business building websites, but they've got given four million pounds to build an AI training website, which apparently links to lots of fake courses, and based on some anecdotal assessment by someone who knows quite a lot about this stuff, apparently could have been built for about a thousand pounds. The PWC got paid four million. And this is... That's part of the course. It is absolutely, yeah. And this is what's happening inside government. OK.

1:01:38Well, my comment on that is when they talk about the foundations of our society crumbling. No, no, no. The foundations have been deliberately destroyed, peace by peace. It was once they started to destroy the foundations and the chaos then came into play in UK. That's when they could call for the rewiring of the complete structure. So overseas, we've got people being attacked politically, we've got people being destroyed physically with bombing and missiles and everything else that the West is providing. But here inside UK and other Western countries, our society is being destroyed from the inside, hollowed out. And minds are being attacked. The attack is on our minds. No, you've got one video before we actually close, Ben, if you want to play it. Because this video for me shows people being played off against each other. Well, absolutely, a very big way. Because they want a compliant population who are going to vote all of this stuff through, ideally.

1:02:40And we've heard a lot of talk over the past few years about this idea of the Great Replacement, which is a supposed vicious right wing conspiracy theory. But actually, it seems to be something that's happening on a daily basis. And we've got a little video clip here from Irene Montero, who is the former Spanish Minister of Equality talking about the Great Replacement. It's in Spanish with subtitles, but we'll summarize after we've washed the clip. Or change the law so that they can vote, of course. Ojalá, theory of the Replacement. Ojalá, we can save mistakes and mistakes in this country. With great people, with great workers. Of course, I want there to be a replacement. A replacement of mistakes, a replacement of racists,

1:03:40a replacement of dividers. And that we can do it with the workers of this country. The skin color has to be black, black, brown, with all the workers of this country. People of workers of the world, unites black, Chinese, brown, all the colors of the rainbow, come to Spain so that we can replace the fascists and the native population, basically. They celebrate it. That was Irene Montero, as I said, the former Spanish Minister of Equality, who was actually part of a coalition government as recently as 2023, celebrating this supposed conspiracy theory. Incredible and very dangerous. We must end today's news there. I will say UK Column Extra, we'll be going into subjects we've covered today in more detail. So if you're a member of UK Column, you can join us for that. But to close off the news, Ben, thank you very much for joining me.
