4:32Heydel-Mankoo calls for replacing the Refugee Convention with arrangements to accommodate refugees within their continent of origin.

Cheap labour or investment in machines? Rafe Heydel-Mankoo makes that choice central to John Anderson Media's most-watched new upload, which reached about 193,000 views.

In "Why BOTH Major Parties Secretly Wanted Mass Immigration | Rafe Heydel-Mankoo", the historian and broadcaster argues that Britain's major parties supported immigration for different reasons: electoral advantage for Labour and corporate demand for cheaper labour for the Conservatives. Those are his explanations of their motives. He proposes greater investment in AI, robotics and automation as an alternative response to labour shortages.

Anderson brings the conversation to helping developing countries build stronger legal and political institutions. Heydel-Mankoo then calls for replacing the Refugee Convention with arrangements to accommodate refugees within their continent of origin, moving the excerpt from economic incentives to proposed policy.

The channel posted 12 uploads altogether. Dan Schueftan's extended interview, "No Apologies: Why Israel Doesn't Need Your Approval To Defend Itself | Dan Schueftan", drew the next-largest new audience. His arguments about Israel's security, Turkey and national solidarity also supplied shorter excerpts: three Schueftan uploads currently account for the channel's strongest daily viewing momentum.

Subscribers increased modestly, by about 2,000 over the week, although today's channel-wide viewing is roughly a quarter of its usual daily level. Nearby political channels had very different weeks: Hawk's Podcasts and Dan Wootton Outspoken drew substantial weekly audiences, while Andrew Klavan was quieter. For Anderson, the week's viewing stretched from British immigration policy to Schueftan's case for Israel's regional security strategy.
