PM Boris Johnson no.10 Party Revelations & ‘Apology’ 😳

So Boris Johnson has apologized, and I've gone through some highs and lows of emotion on this, and I wasn't going to speak out about this, but at first I was angry, then I thought he's a human being and who am I to judge, and then I saw his apology. So I'm going to read you his apology word for word. Apology. Um, I remember someone saying to me once, if someone apologizes to you and then they justify all the reasons that they did the thing, that's not an apology. So I'm going to read that apology in a moment. First off, I'd love your thoughts in the comments about Boris and the Number 10 party and what you think should happen. So for me, at first I was pissed. One rule for us, i.e., impingement on our freedom, lockdowns, and inability to trade, to see our families, to do business, you know, our freedom disrupted. Also, um, our ability to earn and work and live disrupted. Now, if this was for the greater good of humanity and our health and well-being, then you go, okay, okay. So at first, when I heard about the one rule for us, another rule for them, I was upset. There was a lot of fearmongering and threats, and, you know, threats to be arrested, and that you had to stay in, and that it would be immoral to spread it around, etc. You know, blah blah blah. Anyway, I spoke to Nigel Farage yesterday. I interviewed him. I don't know if you saw. Let me know in the comments if you saw that interview. If you didn't, you need to go and find it because it went wild. And Nigel Farage said to me, you know, he's known Boris Johnson for years, his whole political career, and Nigel Farage said, well, he's a liar. I don't even think he knows that he lies. He just lies. That's just what he does. And he does it with almost a cheeky smirk that he doesn't even really think that's a thing. He just lies. Now, I don't know that. I don't know Boris Johnson, but that's what Nigel Farage said. Getting lots of comments about that. You can see that on my Facebook page. So look, I guess I kind of assume that most politicians tell fibs, and I try not to judge that too much because I think all human beings tell fibs. And I know everyone's done it, and everyone has selfish interest and motive and yada yada yada. But you know, when it comes to our freedom, our liberty, our health, our well-being, and our ability to earn and trade and do business, That's a different thing. Do the right thing. And I wasn't even judging about whether the decisions were right or wrong, because I don't think we'll know for a few years. Although I don't think enough modeling of the consequences of a lockdown and the consequences of vaccines— I don't think enough of that modeling has been done. But anyway, I then thought, wait a minute, he's a human being. Did you pop out in lockdown? You don't have to comment, I don't want to incriminate you, but I bet most people popped out for a walk in lockdown. I bet most people probably— I don't know. And I thought, we're all human, and Boris is human, and we must expect our prime ministers and politicians to be human. Is it right to call for his head? Should we burn him at the stake? Should we slice him off? Or really, is this the final straw? Because, you know, are there many other falsehoods beneath all this? But it's really easy to judge people. I don't know Boris Johnson. I don't— I'm not in politics. I tried to think, you know what, come on, be balanced, be open, be fair. I wouldn't want people to judge me who don't know me. And then I read the apology and I was like, what? Wow. I'm going to let you decide, right? So let me know in the comments what you think. About this apology, and I'm going to read it word for word. I'm going to read the apology word for word. I can't join anyone in the live at this moment in time because I'm going to read the apology word for word. I would encourage you please to share this around, um, because I think, look, we've got to take a stand and we've got to start, um, sharing what we think is, is right and wrong in the world. I think we've got to hold our government and our politicians more to account. I spoke to Nigel Farage yesterday, like I said, and he thinks that the government And most of the politicians pretty much look down on small business, but small business pays their wages, it pays the entire public sector. Yet this— how much support has there been for small business through this? VAT is still 20%, that hasn't gone down. Corp tax has gone up by about a third. Income tax is 45% plus. Apparently dividend tax is going up. National Insurance went up. Business rates are still there. So small business, the 5 to 6 million small businesses that fund the entire public sector are being looked down upon. Oh, you weren't from Eton, we disdain you, you are scum, we won't support you. The country is going to die unless they support the small business. Economic dark black ages. And I'm not just, you know, fearmongering. I've never seen anything like this in my entire business career. I've been in business 16 years. This could be worse than the 2008 crash. They need to support small businesses. Anyway, I'll come back to that because I am doing a bit of a campaign to support small businesses. Please hit the share button. Do you think Boris should resign? Do you think it's just a human error? It was only apparently 25 minutes out in the garden. Do you think it's, you know, a bit unfair to try and slam Boris, or do you think that's the thin end of the wedge? And because, you know, there's not much truth going on, it seems in this instance and arena, maybe, you know, there's a lot more. So anyway, at first I was angry. Double standards, not giving us enough support. One rule for you, one rule for us. All these PMs busted— not the— all the politicians busted here, there, and everywhere, snogging and doing all sorts of driving to different locations when we're stuck in. Some people, their family died and they couldn't even see them. Some people died of cancer and they couldn't even go to hospital. So I can understand why people were angry, and I was angry for that and those people. And I was angry because my ability to trade and run a business and support my 250 people on my payroll across construction and my staff and my outsourcers, that was completely, um, threatened. Uh, there's no honoring of how much, um, tax revenue these small businesses generate for the economy, most of it. So it pissed me off. But then I thought, he's a human being, we're all human, I've made mistakes, I'm sure you have, I'm sure most people popped out for a cheeky on lockdown. Come on, it's not enough to cut his head off as PM. Listen to this apology. Are you ready? Are you ready? Hit the share button, I want everyone to see this. Have you listened to the apology? Have you read the apology word for word? Oh, by the way, a load of people are saying Rob for PM. No chance. I am a supporter of business, of entrepreneurship. Of economy. And I just think that your ability to do that if you're a politician gets completely ruined and you get distracted. I am never going to run for PM. Well, they never say never, but anyway, here's the apology. Hit the share button. Right, Mr. Speaker, I want to apologize. I know that millions of people across this country have made extraordinary sacrifices over the last 18 months. I know the anguish that they have been through, unable to mourn their relatives, unable to live their lives as they want or do the things that they love. And I know the rage they feel with me and with the government I lead when they think that Downing Street itself, the rules are not being properly followed by the people who make the rules. And though I cannot anticipate the conclusions of the inquiry, I learned enough to know that there were things we simply did not get right, and I must take responsibility. Number 10 is a big department with the garden as an extension of the office, which has been in constant use because of the role of fresh air in stopping the virus. I'll continue before I say anything. And when I went into that garden just after 6 on the 20th of May 2020 to thank the groups of staff before going back into my office 25 minutes later to conclude my working, I believed implicitly that this was a work event. But, Mr Speaker, with hindsight, I should have sent everyone back inside. I should have found some other way to thank them, and I should have recognized that even if it could be said technically to fall within the guidance, there would be millions and millions of people who simply would not see it that way. People who suffered terribly, people who were forbidden from meeting loved ones at all, inside or outside. And to them, and to this House of Commons, I offer my heartfelt apologies. And all I ask is that Sue Gray be allowed to complete her inquiry into that day and several others so that the full facts can be established. And I will of course come back to this House to make a statement. To me, that's not an apology. What do you think? Is that an apology? That's not an apology. That is saying— that's not an apology. Let me know what you think. It's an excuse, it's a justification, it's a toning and diluting down of what actually happened. So here's the deal. I didn't even want to comment about it. Let's get on with our lives. Then I thought, wait a minute, I'm mad about this because if it's one rule for you and one rule for us, that's not right. And also, if this is the thin end of the wedge and this has been going on everywhere and we're being lied to, we need to step out. And by the way, when I step out and say these things, I risk— I risk getting deplatformed, canceled, etc. So I take a risk. But I, you know, should we do what's right or should we do what's easy? Hit the share button. Should we do what's right or should we do what's easy? Um, now look, I can— I'm not a perfect human being. I've made mistakes. We all make mistakes. So you know, one little, um, one little thing, kind of not really that bothered. However, if it's not an apology, it's a justification, or even a reason— not even an excuse, a reason— doesn't feel genuine to me. Doesn't feel like therefore we're going to be fed the truth. And when that goes on, when also our freedom is impinged, our choice is taken away, you know, more and more evidence coming out that the lockdowns and all the other Mandates probably aren't required, yet there's still massive fearmongering. All the business that was robbed of the small business community in December and January, their best month ever usually, you know, hairdressers, gyms, pubs, clubs, bars, restaurants, travels, robbed of vast amounts of money. Then Rishi comes in and says, don't worry, we'll give you £6,000. And I thought, oh nice, I thought that's a good start. And then everyone was saying in my Facebook videos, £6,000 don't cover even 3 or 4 days. So a token gesture, just to, you know, PR maybe. Um, and then VAT's still really high, corp tax has, um, gone up, income tax is really high, National Insurance has gone up, dividend tax is going up. So we're like, we're getting screwed every which way now. And then I thought, wait a minute, he's a human being. Come on, I'm a human being. Don't judge until you know. It's really 'Come on, you know, we all make mistakes. I have too.' But then when I read that apology, I thought, 'No, that's not an apology. That's not an apology.' And, um, let me know what you think. Let me know what you think about this ongoing saga. Um, what— why am I commenting on this stuff? I'm an entrepreneur. I want to help start and scale up businesses, get better financial education and knowledge. I want to help them become successful entrepreneurs, create multiple streams of recurring income, build businesses that that matter, make a difference, and change the world. That's why I'm commenting on all this stuff, because the ability for businesses to do that is being, um, frustrated, restricted, impinged. Can you trade freely now with the taxes higher than they were? Not lower, higher. With virtually no grants and support now like there were in lockdown 1.0, and trade being shut down, travel restrictions, mandates for going into retail departments and restaurants and bars and pubs and gyms and clubs. That's why I'm making all these comments, because if we do not support the small business, stand up for the small business, if you want to support the small business, of which there's 5 to 6 million, of which that generates more than 90% of the revenue for the entire economy, of which it pays all the salaries of all the politicians, We must support the small business. It's freaking vital. If you agree with me, hit the share button. Step 1. Step 2, tag in a small business. I've done a lot of these videos. Many of them have got tens or hundreds of thousands of views. I've had thousands of small business owners comment. Look, if I petition and get a zillion signatures and write to my MP, shit, nothing's gonna happen. Nothing's gonna happen. But maybe if enough of us crack on and, you know, share this and support small businesses. So step 1, hit the share button. Step 2, tag in a small business. Step 3, share your small business in this live. How would you like to promote your products and services? What kind of business do you need? Because I'd like as many of you as possible to gain business from my content. So that's why I'm sharing this. Thanks for tuning in. Quick summary: Boris has apologised. I've read it word for word. You can go back on the live and listen. Is it really an apology? Doesn't seem like it to me. Nigel Farage says he's a professional liar. That's what Nigel Farage says, not me. That's what Nigel Farage said. I'd love to interview Boris. I'll reach out. Not sure that's going to happen. At first I was angry. All the support that small business isn't getting. And then I thought, wait a minute, he's a human being. We've all made mistakes. Come on, let's Let's give him a bit of leeway. Probably the hardest thing to navigate. How could we have navigated a lockdown if we were in politics? Probably the hardest thing ever. Probably the hardest reign ever in the last 100 years. Forgive the guy. Who am I to judge? You know, blah, blah, blah. And then I read the apology, and it wasn't an apology, and it wound me up again. And here we are. Hit the share button, tag in your small business, tag in another small business, and let's make a difference together. Um, Isaac has said, how can I still not be angry? Well, it— like I said, that, that, um, not-apology apology wound me up again. All right, we need to support the small business. We need tax breaks. We need delays of paying tax. We need reduction in taxes. We need subsidies and support. And when I say we, I mean the 5 to 6 million small businesses that drive the whole economy. They need to not be looked down upon, forgotten, um, ignored. Because so many small business owners have been hurt, maybe irrevocably, in this lockdown. And many people are saying it was a sledgehammer used to crack a nut. Hit the share button, let me know your thoughts in the comments. Let's get the discussion going. Thanks for tuning in. And remember, if you don't risk anything, you risk everything. And on my page, my Facebook page, by the way, on my Facebook page is the interview I did yesterday, yesterday with Nigel Farage, my highest viewed on-live video I've ever done. There you go.
