“They’re saying the same about . People voted for , the polling is saying that whatever you’re saying about your own personal opinions of and reform, it’s not affecting the electorate.

Matthewson replied: “They want better news and they want a different direction. It doesn’t stop the truth from being the case though, Martin. I mean in America, look at what we’ve seen.

“That is why the red ball is going turquoise, because people are sick of being called far right just for holding perfectly normal mainstream opinions, and that’s what’s happening,” as Matthewson replied: “I’m not calling people in the red wall far right at all, and calling people who are politicians who are far right who say far right things.”

“But if you despise multiculturalism, if your main direction right now politically in the world that we live in is trans people, gay people, their rights, the rights of women…”
Daubney cut in as he raged: “It’s taking too much oxygen out of the room, it’s a tiny percentile of the of the population. People care about food on the table, they care about border control.”
Matthewson scoffed: “Oh great, so what we’re happy to allow a tax on people because they’re a small minority but you can have better prices of eggs if trans people get persecuted.”
Daubney hit back: “It’s absolutely not persecuted, they’re just not allowed to go into women’s changing rooms, plays sport.”
As Matthewson tried to make a point about transgender ideology, Daubney cut in and responded: “James, we got off on a good footing and we shall part friends. I’m being told we have to move on.”
