Really enjoyed this podcast. But it left me feeling slightly flat. The multi-cult experiment has been an utter disaster - it wasn’t wanted by the people in the first place, and it isn’t wanted now (other than by big business, some elites, and of course the immigrant communities themselves). What a cluster.
Being a South African, especially an expat abroad is a competitive advantage now. As a private investor in particular, the current direction of the West is just so clearly exactly what has happened with the ANC and it has greatly influenced my investing strategy. The West is in a state of war with itself and I allocate capital accordingly. An Australian emigrant friend was telling me how much Australia has
deteriorated. He sounded exactly like a South African expat. It was scary, and the penny dropped in my mind.
Morning Dominic and Alex, thanks for your time and energy and thoughts. It is my honour to disagree on elements of the debate. I have dropped my brother and sister-in-law, who lives in Hants, this note as they are considering a move back to SA, where I now live overlooking the Bushmans River in the Eastern Cape province after 17 years of living in Dorset, England and my emigration back with my English wife in Nov 2019. 'Howzit, have a listen in to this. I like Dominic Frisby a lot, but the first half hour is strewn with apocryphal clutching from 6-10 years ago, and only gets to the point at around 39min and only for 5 mins before becoming opinion and insight that is not backed up with anything sound. I am not sure who Alex, the co-host, was at a wedding with where it all turned to race, but I do not recognise that as a norm at all. I am biased, so maybe missing something. Nevertheless, the clip discusses the UK and the West and its movement towards something which sounds reasonable albeit negative as it is inferred as decline - a South Africanisation - which may be the signal, with the SA reference as a handy but ultimately flawed metaphor. There is no woke in SA - the Rhodes must fall imbeciles were swiftly shut down by society here. When Zuma was imprisoned his supporters went on a rampage through Kwazulu-Natal province, which was swiftly shut down by society - a rainbow nation holding hands in a firm position against such thuggery. SA was one of the worst shut-down nations on earth for 6 weeks, and the booze and tobacco bans were brought in by Jacob Zuma's ex-wife and acolyte par excellence, Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma, was an affront to society - as well as a boon for NDZ and her acolytes - obvs - who traded for months on the black market at huge financial gain, but once the first winter here was done, SA was almost as free as Sweden thereafter, SA never closed its airports and always accepted her people back from outlandishly locked down nanny states, including GB, no 10-day quarantine at exorbitant cost, et al. With a weak government without the nous or funds to survey its populace, and notwithstanding the 5 mins highlighting SA's current dis-ease of long-term corruption and the effect that has had in widening - not narrowing - economic inequality, the Republic is IMHO the freest, least nanny state on earth. There was a saying in SA in the early 1990s, just before the first free and fair elections in 1994 - and midway through the Zuma years 2016-2019: PACK FOR PERTH. ED: One could also pack for London, the US, Canada, and Europe, natuurlik. During and after Covid, that became, in my mind at least, UNPACK FOR PERTH. Perhaps that might be a siren call to PACK FOR THE CAPE. For those with an entrepreneurial spirit and some capital stored away and a frontiersman-gene in their DNA, there can only be one place that can offer a temperate to tropical climate and the diversity of people and language and culture and scenery and landscape and history and food and drink - celebrated here by all South Africans; Madiba's miracle lives on my Anglo-Saxon friends - where the Constitution disallows special interest groups like woke and LGBT+ as the individual comes before the group and if not everybody is accorded the same rights under the law, then nobody is accorded any rights and there is no law. That place is Mzanzi, the South: South Africa. A flawed country in a flawed world which welcomes its own people, and visitors alike, into its embrace as it continues to transition from what is was before spanning since 1652, to what it can become.'

Happy New Year, Dominic and family, wishing you all the best. In response to this video clip, and in response to Terrence in-thread, which is a pre-Covid clip I think, thankfully the clowns in Parliament, especially the rabble rousers clad in their red berets, the champagne socialists of the EFF, resemble the electorate in the same way an elephant shrew resembles the African elephant. it is a great pity that policy is seldom discussed in the house, and it falls upon the private sector and independent thinkers, business leaders, and entrepreneurs to drive such. As much as it galls me, I would much prefer a country that did not lock its citizens down for 2020 and 2021 - and did not police with force the masking of, and the free movement of its people - apart isolated incidents in those first 6 weeks of March & April 2020 - even if the dross in the parliament buildings in Pretoria resort to playground name calling in piques of undignified anger. Other than Sweden I am lost to find a another country on earth that did not willing destroy its economy and imprison their people via diktat from a highly compromised executive for two years where I might conceivable pack for. Nevertheless, as disclosed, I am biased even if I consider myself broadly pragmatic and realistic. I look forward, Dominic, to listening in to your content through 2023 as I find it extremely interesting and helpful, and look forward to further debate on such interesting matters. Go well, best wishes, IB.
Even if every single last one of these migrants 'assimilated' themselves into our nation (which is impossible by the way) I still wouldn't want them here.
Every people deserve to have their own homeland and be amongst their own kind.

Agree that the 4th estate especially has failed us, after all, it should have been their job to keep the other institutions in check
Thanks for an interesting talk. Sadly you are wrong about NI Belfast Agreement working.

Thanks Ian. Good to have another, more informed perspective!

Thanks Ian. Good point that out of date!
Based on that video, I’d say it is time to “pack for Perth” to borrow a phrase from Ian.
Thank god i work in the construction industry. Not experienced this yet but if i did I would confront this ideology.
Even if every single last one of these migrants 'assimilated' themselves into our nation (which is impossible by the way) I still wouldn't want them here.
Every people deserve to have their own homeland and be amongst their own kind.
Homogeneity is diversity.
