So what made you come all the way from Lukashia?
24
So I am an RAF veteran.
25
I served 12 years in the Royal Air Force.
26
And I'm being told that I'm racist.
27
Because I'm attending this event.
28
No, I'm proud.
29
I'm proud of my flag.
30
So at the end of the day,
31
this lady is a proud lady of this country.
32
Love it, love it, love it.
33
For England, for us.
34
No matter what kind of...
35
It doesn't matter, it's about being British.
36
It's about being British.
37
But the media try and make it about colour.
38
Yeah, exactly.
39
It's not about colour, it's about culture.
40
It's about culture and the culture in this country is not conducive.
41
What it is is about the media twisting things to narrow the noise.
42
I'm a Christian and I tell you what,
43
this is a Christian country and that's it.
44
Come on, love that.
45
So, what's this United Kingdom about?
46
Sorry this is Shohab, come on Shohab.
47
So Shohab, Shohab, Shohab.
48
Much love, much love.
49
You're good, yeah?
50
I'm good, I'm happy.
51
We are fighting for this country.
52
I'm holding the gold star.
53
The far right and the right here.
54
Absolutely.
55
So if I may ask,
56
why are you here today?
57
So I'm here today because I am the veteran and I am proud of the UK,
58
I'm proud of being British.
59
My parents came across in the 60s and they worked,
60
they contributed, they paid tax,
61
they bought and we grew up here.
62
I was born here and grew up here.
63
Yes, it wasn't easy.
64
It was tough.
65
But we weren't given free anything.
66
My parents weren't given a free house and everything.
67
They had to work for it and they had to assimilate into this country.
68
And we did lovingly, willingly.
69
So, what do you think the media gets wrong about this rally?
70
Because what they're trying to do is trying to make law-abiding,
71
tax-paying citizens of the UK look as if they're racist against the people that are coming into this country.
72
That's not the case.
73
The people of this country aren't racist.
74
There are a few, don't get me wrong,
75
you'll always find a few.
76
But look around you.
77
There's grandparents, there's women, there's children, there's granddads grandads you know these aren't racists these are people
78
that are sick to death of having to fight for the things
79
that they are they are entitled to yeah I'm a veteran there's veterans on the streets
80
that need there's veterans on the streets that need homes yeah
81
that are fought for this country
82
that need homes yet they're being bypassed by the government to
83
allow people in why why I'm from my life where please you yeah
84
and the thing is we are being precision
85
or being fast yeah we're black
86
or whether you're right it doesn't fucking matter with the government ignore
87
and we are not far right we don't care about where
88

89

91

92
Don the armour.
93

95
Keir Star was a wanker,
96
he didn't give a fuck about his people.
97
And he just twists everything.
98
One more question.
99
For those that are scared of this rally,
100
because I've seen it on quite a few posts around,
101
saying boycott it, saying a voice in areas,
102
but for those that are scared of this,
103
what message do you have for that?
104
Well, I just say just come along because you'll see
105
that there are beautiful people here The people here are here for a reason
106
because they love their country They love their culture
107

109
If your roots are from another nation and you come here
110
and contribute it doesn't matter you should be proud of being black and white Wherever you're from Everyone's from somewhere else nowadays,
111

Colour doesn't It doesn't matter,
149
we are one and I'm here to represent England and to represent my ethnicity to say that the Indians support the British.
150
Okay, if I'm going to say,
151
what do you think the media gets wrong about this?
152
About this gathering?
153
They think that it's just for our right,
154
they think that it's not for ethnic people and I think that they have mislead the public.
155
We need to say the truth and that's why I've come today to be a representation of the ethnic minority or majority.
156
But to say that we are here and we are representing British.
157
British is values, it is principles, it is Christianity.
158
And this is what Britain and being British means.
159
It's to value, integrate and to be part of,
160
you know, we need to grow back the British culture and I'm here to represent that.
161
What would you say to people that are scared of this rally?

205
So for people that are not here today that are scared of this gathering, right?

Why practice speaking with this video?
Engaging with this video featuring diverse voices at a rally in Britain offers an excellent context for english speaking practice. The lively interactions among speakers illustrate real-life conversational dynamics, capturing a variety of accents and cultural backgrounds. This can help learners understand how English is used in different contexts, from formal to informal.
When you practice speaking along with this kind of content, you not only improve your fluency but also gain confidence in discussing complex societal topics. This interaction reflects authentic English usage, which can be beneficial for learners aspiring to make meaningful conversations. Utilizing a shadowing app will allow you to mimic the speakers, enhancing your pronunciation and intonation in a realistic setting.
Grammar & Expressions in Context
In this video, several key structures and expressions can enhance your understanding and usage of English:
- "I’ve got a far right fuck here." - This informal phrase shows how to assert belief or presence. Note the casual language that can be common in spoken English.
- "I am proud." - A strong declaration that strengthens identity. Use of the simple present tense here is important in expressing ongoing feelings.
- "It’s about being British." - This phrase emphasizes identity and belonging. Pay attention to the preposition "about," which connects thoughts or topics.
- "It doesn’t matter." - A phrase often used to dismiss negativity. The expression is commonly used when emphasizing that something shouldn't be a concern.
Practicing these structures through repetition and shadow speech will help solidify these important expressions in your speaking repertoire.
Common Pronunciation Traps
As you engage with the content in this video, be aware of certain pronunciation challenges:
- "RAF" (Royal Air Force) - Ensure you pronounce each letter clearly, as well as the full term when expanded, which may sound different in rapid conversation.
- "Proud" and "Culture" - Pay attention to the vowel sounds and the strength of the consonants at the beginning and end of these words. Practicing these on a shadowing site will reinforce proper pronunciation.
- "Christian" - This word can be mispronounced due to its syllable stress. Make sure to emphasize the first syllable correctly: 'CHRIS-tian.'
Improving your english pronunciation requires practice, and repeating these phrases while shadowing the speakers will help you sound more natural in conversations.
What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
