Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is the Fitsy and Whip with Kate Richie podcast.
Huge March fits if you saw this in the UK
over the weekend and anti immigration march of.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
One hundred thousand people.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
Took to the streets to say reunite the UK, look
after London, look after the United's Kingdom.

Speaker 3 (00:20):
Very very similar to the march that we had here,
wasn't it?

Speaker 1 (00:24):
H Yeah, quite similar. A lot of Union jack flags,
a lot of campaigning to say that London in and
England is not the country and city it used to be.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
And they're fighting back.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
What was interesting when I went on to read about it,
I looked at the numbers of the march, like the
drone footage of the city, and the amount of people
was extraordinary, Like the turnout was huge, the streets were
completely flooded. And then I thought, I'll have a look
what the people are saying. So I jumped on the
comments and all the comments were, go, Aunt Middleton was

(01:01):
at Middleton. What's that Middleton got to do with this?
It was like, we'll vote for you, Aunt Middleton.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
I thought.

Speaker 1 (01:12):
I wasn't sure if he was trying to kick roxy
Ja Sinko off the show. I wasn't sure if.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
Manu had decided to leave early, I didn't know.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Whether they'd confused the topic and they were commenting on
something else.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
Interesting.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
For the celebrities to get through that challenge from one
end of the march to.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
The other, through a hundred thousand people while you're carrying
a log, it's going to be and then you've got
to jump out. You got to jump out into a
royal fountain from a helicopter.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
Roxy's probab out after thirty seconds she's recorded hermez, this
is unbelievable. Anyway.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
Then I found that out that one man had stepped
up to say, I will be the next Lord Mayor
of London.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
I will fix this and Middleton. This is not a game.
This is not a game. This would be good. He
wants to be Lord me. Why do celebrities do this?

Speaker 1 (02:07):
I mean, there was a very successful celebrity that did this.
His name was Arnold Schwartzenegger. He led a beautiful campaign
and became a very well respected governor of California. This
is this is not out of the realm of possibility
at Middleton. You can imagine him walking, you know, as
people walk into leadership meetings.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
He would just be yelling. He would just be you know,
letting loose on whatever's going laugh.

Speaker 3 (02:39):
Oh no, work, No he can't. I mean, how does
he find the time? Isn't he hasn't He just finished
doing Australia's Amazing Race.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
He's yelling, don't at you. He's furious this morning.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
So I lookul, I would like to think that he
could conduct a normal style of meeting without yelling at people.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
We have eyes and ears everywhere.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
That's a warning. That is a warning. So if anyone
tries to throw him out of.

Speaker 3 (03:11):
Office, that could be his tagline as as Mayor of London.
We have eyes and ears everywhere.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
But it would have to be written in capital letters
on the T shirt because he does nothing but yell.
