| 0:00.0 | I'm John Batchel, Gregory Copley, Defense in Foreign Affairs, a subject of the king. Gregory is a native |
| 0:22.9 | Australian that makes him subject of King Charles III, as all the residents of England and Wales and |
| 0:30.1 | Scotland and Northern Ireland, as well as New Zealand and Canada, are subject of the king. Therefore, |
| 0:36.1 | the king is a person who can reach in and solve some of |
| 0:39.3 | the crises that are coming up daily in the news headlines. I read the English media because |
| 0:45.0 | it's much more romantically melodrama than American media, which tends to be righteous and |
| 0:51.3 | prosecutorial, whereas the English enjoy the weakness of men and women in Parliament. |
| 0:56.6 | So do I, when I catch on to their game. |

| 1:28.5 | Gregory, my understanding of labor, in addition to spelling it with the U, is that it's associated |
| 1:33.5 | with the English working class. |
| 1:35.5 | However, at the same time, they're keen on taxing all directions, which isn't popular. |
| 1:41.7 | They're keen on communal decisions for whole cities. In other words, |
| 1:47.4 | the word comes from the top, which you can and can't do with your own house or with your |
| 1:51.1 | own property or with your own street. And they don't especially tell me that they have a growth |
