Paul Mason reacts to news of Labour's defeat in the 2019 election
| 00:00 - 00:03 | Paul, the exit poll is out. It shows a massive majority for the Tories. |
| 00:04 - 00:05 | The red wall has crumbled. The Nazis broke through. |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | Even Bolsover has gone blue. |
| 00:08 - 00:12 | Seats Labour has held since their creation have elected Tory MPs. |
| 00:12 - 00:15 | Our losses are twice as bad in the most working-class areas. |
| 00:17 - 00:19 | The poll must be wrong. |
| 00:19 - 00:21 | The working classes support Remain. |
| 00:24 - 00:26 | Paul... |
| 00:27 - 00:28 | Actually... |
| 00:31 - 00:33 | Actually two-thirds of the working class voted to Leave. |
| 00:34 - 00:36 | It was the most class-correlated vote in decades. |
| 00:53 - 00:58 | Everyone out except Ash Sarkar, Owen Jones and Aaron Bastani. |
| 01:13 - 01:15 | How the fuck could this happen? |
| 01:15 - 01:17 | The voters are fucking racists! |
| 01:18 - 01:23 | Selfish old bastards fucking over the young! |
| 01:25 - 01:28 | I had a perfect strategy for victory! |
| 01:29 - 01:31 | I told Labour to back Remain! |
| 01:31 - 01:34 | They should have fucking listened to me! |
| 01:34 - 01:37 | But they dithered and delayed and fucked everything up! |
| 01:37 - 01:40 | And now we lost to the LibDems! |
| 01:40 - 01:42 | But Paul, we lost to the Tories... |
| 01:42 - 01:46 | The fucking LibDems! "Bollocks to Brexit" should have been OUR slogan! |
| 01:46 - 01:48 | The LibDems only got 11 seats! |
| 01:48 - 01:52 | Yes, because the fucking voters are fucking racists! |
| 01:53 - 01:54 | Worse than Nazis! |
| 01:56 - 01:57 | Owen, you said your Guardian column |
| 01:57 - 02:00 | would convince Leave voters to support us. |
| 02:00 - 02:03 | Do none of these shits listen to Novara radio? |
| 02:04 - 02:08 | Or read my New Statesman column? |
| 02:08 - 02:13 | How can calling people fascists for three years not convince them to vote for us? |
| 02:14 - 02:16 | We needed those fascists to support us |
| 02:17 - 02:21 | to prevent a fascist takeover! |
| 02:27 - 02:29 | I guess we underestimated |
| 02:30 - 02:34 | the sheer stupidity of the masses. |
| 02:34 - 02:36 | They just don't deserve Fully Automated Luxury Communism. |
| 02:41 - 02:42 | Corbyn's fucked. |
| 02:43 - 02:47 | Now we'll have a one-party racist state where gays and Muslims are rounded up and shot |
| 02:48 - 02:53 | Katie Hopkins will be made home secretary |
| 02:54 - 02:56 | Nick Griffin the fucking foreign minister |
| 02:56 - 02:59 | and Tommy Robinson minister for equalities! |
| 03:00 - 03:02 | Why didn't they listen to me? The tribune of the northern working class? |
| 03:04 - 03:07 | Don't worry, the nurse will come to take him away soon. |
| 03:14 - 03:16 | I suppose I could write another New Statesman column. |
| 03:19 - 03:23 | Tell Labour what to do next. |
| 03:25 - 03:26 | Give them the benefit of my wisdom. |
| 03:31 - 03:33 | We can rebuild the left around me. |
| 03:40 - 03:46 | We just need to cull the North, the Midlands and Wales. |
| 03:46 - 03:49 | That way we can save them from fascism. |
| 03:53 - 03:56 | Bring me my laptop. |
