Yeah, I mean, you said that, you know, fair enough, that they can also bring up to, in one case you seem to know about, there are about 14 family members with them as well, which I don't think this scheme was designed for
0:11
And it's led to people in certain towns in Britain now clocking why their local council was so keen to develop housing for Afghans
0:21
But this is a betrayal, isn't it? This is a lie. And this is why people kick off, Bob, isn't it
0:28
It is why people kick off. And as I say, Patrick, I mean, look, Afghan war is now receding into history
0:36
And, you know, I think Trump's behaviour was not great over the Afghan war because he pulled out at very short notice blaming Biden
0:42
So we had a moral duty to some of the people who served with us. But we also increasingly government and the system has a responsibility above all to the British people
0:52
and there is a very clear sense, and I see it all the time and so do you
0:57
that the British people are fed up with a system that seems to prioritise others
1:02
So if you're an Afghan, the system will work for you. If you're an illegal immigrant, the system will work for you
1:06
If you're the Mauritian government, the system will give you £35 billion
1:10
If you a developing world country who spouts out some nonsense on climate change the system will hand over billion But if you a law citizen and you live in a number of towns in this country where you know you got very poor community relations
1:25
or you've had grooming gangs, the system hasn't wanted to listen for 10, 20 years
1:30
I understand that. And actually, I feel people's anger. Yeah, just so sorry
1:33
I think it was Biden that pulled out of Afghanistan, wasn't it? It wasn't Trump
1:37
Yeah, but it was the Trump deal. OK, I see what you mean. Just sorry, very quickly, Bob
1:42
on this now, you know, it's all very well and good saying, you know
1:46
OK, all right, people feel betrayed and all of that. But I mean
1:50
the idea that the government might have secretly flown in like a sex offender
1:55
and plonked them in someone's area. I mean, were these people even vetted properly? Some weren't, some weren't
2:02
is my gut feeling, and it's quite clear that, like you, I've been reading the fact
2:06
there were some people who we gave a very firm no to because of
2:10
those sorts of reasons and are now in anyway and you can pretty much guarantee oh look i wish all
2:15
these people who serve with us are deeply honorable and actually become good british citizens like you
2:20
i worry that quite a few won't uh and quite a few have you know a either an afghan or you know a
2:26
pashtun culture which has a very different set of sexual and moral and ethical mores than what is
2:32
acceptable in this country and uh that's why people are angry and i feel that anger
