It was a pleasure to be joined by Alexander Tschugguel to better understand the Covid tyranny currently being implemented in Austria. Austria was the first country in Europe to make the vaccine mandatory and Alexander has found himself in the front line against this new totalitarianism. Austrians who do not comply with the new law will face fines of 3600 euros which, if they do not pay, can land them in jail for up to one year. Proud Austrians are rising up with daily demonstrations all across their country. Will it be enough?Alexander Tschugguel is a well-known Austrian Catholic, Conservative and pro-life activist, he is famous for having tipped into the Tiber a series of “Pachamama” statuettes that had been on display in a nearby church during the Amazon Synod and for his many actions in defense of traditional Catholic teaching. More recently, he has also become one of the leading figures of opposition against covid lockdown measures and forced vaccination policies in Austria and is taking a stand against totalitarianism in his country. Alexander is the president of the St. Boniface Institute, a Vienna based Catholic think tank, which he founded in 2019. It was created as a platform to support the fight for the traditional Catholic faith and to defend that faith whenever and wherever necessary.

Monday Dec 13, 2021
Monday Dec 13, 2021
This episode Richard Taylor (RichPolitics) joins us to look at the hypocrisy and double standards in The Conservative Party. On a day when PM Boris Johnson has been trying to see just how much BS the British public will take. While the Tories are tanking in the polls (because of absolute tory incompetence, not Labour brilliance), they are continuing to punish the British people with ever increasing controls and outlandish scare stories.While they party.....we suffer.
Richard Taylor is a proud Welshman, passionate campaigner, activist and political commentator. He is also the presenter of a non politically correct weekly broadcast on the latest news and political views in Wales and the U.K broadcast every Wednesday & Friday at 6PM on Rich Politics on YouTube. Richard has had an incredible transformation from career criminal to pastor to political commentator, he ran as candidate in Blaenau Gwent for the Brexit party in 2019 and even hosted his own BBC TV show called ‘To Catch A Thief’ which gave homeowners tips on home security.

Great to have Alan D Miller join Hearts of Oak to discuss the success of the Together Declaration that has gained 150,000 signatures. Alan has spearheaded this appeal to common sense to call on the government to stop the lockdowns and covid passport restrictions that are damaging business and livelihoods. He has had considerable success in getting MP's on board who are opposing further lockdowns and increased restrictions and has also been on numerous media outlets getting the message out that lockdowns are destructive and have to end.Alan D Miller has spent his life launching projects that many say are not possible, from Acid House Parties to co-creating London’s business cultural centre, The Old Truman Brewery. But the COVID ‘pandemic’ and the infringements on our freedoms has brought his biggest challenge to date, co-founding, launching and tirelessly campaigning for The Night Time Industries Association, Open For All and the Together Declaration who all reject vaccine passports or any similar form of medical certification in the United Kingdom and demand a free, fair and open society for ourselves, our friends and our families. Alan has enjoyed a career that has involved creative collaborations, pushing boundaries, striving as an entrepreneur and lobbying locally, nationally and internationally. He has partners in TV and film in London and New York and is a regular contributor and writer on many media platforms.

In May 2021 the Government published the draft Online Safety Bill which aims to safeguard young people and clamp down on online abuse while protecting freedom of speech. As often happens, legislation that is introduced to address one concern opens up a Pandora's box in other issues. In this case the supposed desire to protect people online will lead to a draconian clampdown on free speech. To cause offence is now criminal, online discussion and debate can easily be misunderstood as communication is reduced down to text without any other personal engagement or context. Carl Benjamin joins Hearts of Oak to ask the question......Will this bill end freedom of speech online?Carl Benjamin is a British free-speech activist who came to prominence through his YouTube pseudonym Sargon of Akkad. An outspoken critic of identity politics, Benjamin is a champion of English Liberalism, pushing back against the ideological subversion of the liberal society.Carl began his YouTube career in 2013, amassing nearly one million subscribers and over half a billion views before being shadowbanned in 2019 by YouTube and Google for wrong think!
