My screen-recorder accidentally recorded the webcam microphone audio while getting the clip of the speech.
See if you can spot (listen out for) the moment I realised that Boris Johnson's plan was to install Tory puppets across the country in the name of "regional devolution".
This is the footage I couldn't fit in...
Because we have an unfair voting system, people who vote progressive their whole lives end up associating the bad things the Tories have done to them with the party they voted for.
And that leads to crazy statements like this!

Boris Johnson says the problem in Africa is that we're not in charge anymore...
Priti Patel says taking a knee is wrong...
They produce a Race Report that talks about the benefits of slavery...
Then act like they're fighting racism along with us.
I no longer have any problem calling all 357 Tory MPs fascists because...
Fascism involves the forceful suppression of opposition and EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM just voted for police to arrest protesters who shout too loudly. #PoliceCrackdownBill#PolicingBill
Tory MP David Davis said the #PoliceCrackdownBill "actually does pose a grave threat to the fundamental right of protest" then voted for it!
Tory MP Jonathan Djanogly said the #PolicingBill would "reduce public safety" by encouraging the police to use force against peaceful protesters... THEN VOTED FOR IT!
I'm watching Parliament discuss the #PolicingBill.
Thread:
MP @HarrietHarman calls for curb-crawling (form of sexual harassment) to be made into a specific offence, with the potential penalty of losing one's driver's license. #PolicingBill
Shadow Home Office Minister @LabourSJ is an absolute rockstar on this.
And demands removal of the clauses which criminalise being #NoisyAndAnnoying at protests.
I'll probably wake up to a bunch of angry replies so, as I've said MANY times:
The public, BOTH remainers and Leavers alike, on average, did not understand UK-EU relations well enough to be given that question.
Even I didn't understand the Northern Ireland dimension until 2018.
The above tweet is being quoted by people choosing to take the last sentence in isolation and pretend I wasn't OBVIOUSLY saying that despite being more qualified on EU law than 99% of Britain, there were still aspects of UK-EU relations I was ignorant of.
