Why SAS Soldier Ant Middleton Quit The UK

You left for Dubai recently? Yep. Why? I've always. People say, and you left, you know, you moved out of Dubai. You say you're a patriot. Yeah. You're a hypocrite. And I'm like, no, I'm the opposite of a hypocrite. I've always been brought up by my parents to respect one's culture and to respect the, the laws of the land. And if I didn't, then probably don't go to that country or visit it once and never revisit it. That's what they said to me. If you don't respect the culture and you don't respect the layout of the land, I. E. The law and order, then don't go to that country. And it made sense to me. If I didn't like a certain culture then I'd visit it. And I go, oh, it's not for me, I'm not going to visit there again. If I didn't like the way their law and order was, then I wouldn't go there. It got to a point where I didn't like or respect the culture or lack thereof in the uk this whole multiculturalism, you know, this fairy tale doesn't exist. It's not real. Multiculturalism isn't even a word, you know, it's made up. It doesn't exist. Yes we are, we've got a diverse cultured society but this multiculturalism all in one. So I didn't agree with the culture and I certainly didn't agree with the layout of the lands I moved two years ago. Okay, so this is when all the two tiering before, after the two tiering came in. Two tiering system. Yeah. I could see it changing. I just thought to myself, I don't agree with the culture and I don't agree with the layout of the land. Guess what I'm doing? I'm taking myself out of it. So when people say, oh, aren't you a hypocrite? No, no, I'm the opposite of a hypocrite. I'm actioning what, what my values and morals and beliefs are by moving to Dubai where it's safe yet my children car, you know, just me in moving and working around the world like I do, knowing that my children, Dubai, they can go to the mall. My daughter can stay out till midnight 1 o'. Clock. My son can stay out till, you know, quite late as well. He's in his late teens and I've got zero concerns that anything is going to happen to them. Even someone's going to shout at them. Zero. Let alone if someone's going to stab them, if someone's going to get drunk and have a fight with them that I know will never, never happen. So talk about me going around being able to provide and protect my family in a way that I am fully efficient at what I do. Therefore, putting bread on the table, putting a roof over their head. It allows me to focus on what I do best. Protect and provide. Then you've got the, the cleanliness. It is clean. You know, talk about walking the streets. They say, used to say that London streets were paved in gold. That's what they used to say. Right. And these are the things that I take in and I go, I'm going to make London streets paved in gold once again. These are things that are going through my head because that's what they used to say, go to London. The streets are paved in gold. The energy, the motivation to go into London. I felt it when I walked on the golden streets of London. That is so gone. But I feel that in Dubai, I walk on golden streets. I walk in. In a society, a multicultured, and I don't like to use that word, but a melting pot of diverse cultures, and it works in Dubai. Do you know why it works in Dubai? You respect their culture. Because I respect their culture, but also I respect their law and order. Okay. This is a huge thing. And this is why I say it's about law and order and culture. I respect their culture. Wow. I can go to church if I want. Out there. I can practice my religion, my faith, if I want to. I can, you know, I can go and have a pint. You know, even though we're in an Islamic country where, you know, they don't drink alcohol, but as long as I'm in a hotel or I'm in a place, I can't do it on the streets. Of course, but I wouldn't want to. That's. If that's your. Your, your rules. I'm not drinking on the streets. I'll drink in a, in a. In a confined space where I'm happy with that. Yeah. Then I'll go and do what I need to do. Not that I drink much. I love that during Ramadan, it's half days at school. Doesn't matter whether you go to a British school, American school, an Australian school. In Dubai, you will have half day in Ramadan. You will respect that, that religious holiday? Of course. Five times a day, I hear the call to prayer. Absolutely, of course. I mean, I've got no problem with that. It's actually very soothing and relaxing. I actually like the call to pray, you know, but if you, if you go in and start complaining about that, guess what's going to happen to you? Kick you out. You're gone, mate. You are gone. Okay? And this is where people go, wow. Actually this is a very, very clean society. It's a very safe society. It's a thriving society. And what I love about it as well, because I learn from different cultures, it's a diverse cultured society where everyone goes about their business. But the law and order aspect and the respect for their overruling culture, which is Islam. Yeah. You step outside of that umbrella into the rain, you're going to get wet. Guess what? When you're wet, they're going to turf you out. And it works. And this is what I want to bring to London. So when I'm in Dubai, my family is safe there, I'm happy there, I'm learning and I'm taking in everything that I see that is super positive there, that works, that I want to implement in London. And this is why I talk about our British cultured umbrella. Our British cultured umbrella, intertwined with our law and order is fair. It's just, it works. It's worked up to 20 odd years ago, until we had this whole multicultural sort of narrative. And the thing about the multicultural narrative, they've brought this in and they spent billions and billions and billions on it. And now that they see it failing, they cannot afford to, to watch it or see it fail. So they're turning blind eyes to stuff. They are literally sacrificing British children and British citizens lives in order to still make this work when it's, when it's drastically failed. And I say to people, if we are of all cultures, we say we're multicultural countries. I keep hearing that drives you mad. If we are of all cultures, that means we are cultureless, right? And when we're cultureless, guess what? We've got no identity, we've got no purpose and we've got no belonging. Then what does that filter into the whole process? Confusion, frustration, anger and violence. We can reinstall our law and order and our British cultured umbrella which makes the world go round. I love going to Nepal, I love their culture. I'm in a tuk tuk and they're flying me around the streets. I'm nearly dying. Every roundabout and every turn of the corner and I'm just, I'm buzzing. I go to, I go to Australia, they're all laid back, you know, they finish work, they're surfing on the beach. You know, the kids aren't doing their homework until they get back in. You know, they're surfing first. You know, I love Dubai. I love their culture. Because actually, you know, you go around Dubai and you see, you know, even with their grand. They're beautiful locations. You know, you go around. I embrace their culture. I love when I arrive in Dubai. You arrive in Dubai and the first thing you do, you go through immigration. They're all smart as guards. They're there, they got their candor on. You know, you've arrived in the uae, they're there, all the police officers bang. Local Emiratis, you know, you. You know, I love. They're clean, Their candor is up. Whiter than white. They are sparkling and a sen of pride. You know, they're proud to be Emiratis, they're proud of their culture. I love that. And I think more power to you, because I learned from that, you know, and that's what's severely lacking and what's severely gone wrong in the uk. And like I said, because of that lack of culture, that lack of identity, we have teetered into. Into aggression and violence, and it's just a slippery slope from here. So we need to get a grip of it. And this is why I want to run for mayor of London, because I want to capture our capital city and make it. Make it. Yes. It's a diverse society. Cultural society. I love that. I love. I live in one. I live in Dubai. Right. It works if you get it right, but we don't. Do not have that. That cultured umbrella, British cultural umbrella, which gives you protection and loads of benefits, but also protects you from walking into the rain with our law and order. Sam.
