In a comedic skit, a man playing an out-of-touch right-wing political recruiter enters a pub and attempts to recruit the British Asian owner. He uses a series of condescending compliments, flawed statistics, and patronizing arguments about her background and women's safety. The pub owner and her niece calmly and sarcastically dismantle his arguments, highlighting his hypocrisy and ignorance, before ultimately telling him to leave.

Wow. If this isn't just a great example of an immigrant success story. Yes. I risked my life crossing the m one from Birmingham many years ago. Really? It's worse than I thought. Anyway, did you know that more and more people from your background are voting for our party? And what background is that, Nen? Asians. British Asians. British people of Asian extraction. I never know what the politically correct term is anymore. Probably not the one with the word extraction in it. Noted. You know, in many ways, I'm actually more of a minority than you are. Really? Yeah. Asian population of The UK, 8%. Private school population of The UK, just 7%. That's not really how statistics work. Well, in politics, all that matters is that seven is fewer than eight. Is he bothering you, auntie? Auntie? Wow. Is this a family run business? No. She's not actually my it takes a lot more than that to no actually my it takes a lot more than that to bother me, darling. I'm, what What are you actually doing here? Well, I I I'm glad you asked. We need you. And I need you to order something, Ollie. Hear me out. I'm willing to bet that you agree with me way more than you think you do. How much? It makes me feel like I haven't wasted the last two minutes of my life. Okay. Politics aside, I think we can agree that women don't feel safe in our streets. That's true. And it is our duty as men to protect them. From who? Well, from, the dangerous people. The men? Not all men. No. But it is always men. Good. Let's not bring gender into this. This. No, but it's okay to bring ethnicity into it. Look. I own a pub. I have to listen to people's opinions better I like them or not. That doesn't mean that I'm going to join any particular political party. Don't see us as a political party. We're just a group on the side of common sense. Common sense would have told you not to come in here and open with immigrant success story. See, that is one of the big issues today. You just can't say anything anymore. And what's stopped you so far? We are just trying to give ordinary people a voice. Ordinary? Ordinary people. You know, teachers, barristers, venture capitalists, the backbone of British society. Tier not sure. Ordinary means what you think it does. Let me just leave you, a leaflet, and one for your niece. How about you? Just leave.
