Summary

Businessman, former MEP, and leader of Advance UK Ben Habib joins The Peter Mccormack Show to deliver a blistering critique of Britain's political and constitutional decline. In this discussion, Ben exposes how Tony Blair's reforms, the Human Rights Act, and decades of globalist policies have eroded British sovereignty, weakened our borders, and crippled our economy. We discuss the collapse of public trust, the migration crisis, EU entanglements, judicial overreach, and why Keir Starmer's Labour government poses an existential threat to Britain's future. Ben reveals Advance UK's plan to rebuild the nation from the ground up: secure our borders, return power to Parliament, revive our economy, and defend British values.

0:25.6	Well, I mean, people are voting with their feet. They're leaving the United Kingdom.
0:29.6	Because we've got to restore the United Kingdom's very existence. And it's going to be a very painful process. You're absolutely right to call it a revolution. It's a revolution against the global order.
0:39.3	It's not the criminals you should be protecting.
