Laugh and learn!
The brilliant Robert Newman comes to grips with the wars and politics of the last hundred years - but rather than adhering to the history we were fed at school, places oil at the center stage of all the cause of all commotion.
ARRON
in thatone field alone but thn again in the 70’s they said we only had enoughboik to last 20 years . so go figure
“New oil field in Mexico”
from BBC, 2006: deep-water oil field discovered “believed to contain 10bn barrels of crude”
Annual global consumption is a little over 30 billion barrels. So this new field won’t last 1800 years. Not even close.
Ah I remember Rob from the Mary whitehouse experience. Great to see he’s doing something worthwhile, and still being hilariously funny too.
do the math. of coursecwe’ve been told we’re almost out in twenty years, for the last 40. if you looked the Field just discovered in MexiCo alone. plus all the methane gas Naturally found around the world plus and plus what wc can Mable. this pals as way ahead act to mention rnss. is war fields, Alaska the as & a whole planet of UN Searched ocean billon, in me than alone would be l,ooo times more than the oil were used. Soya 1,800 years
Well, in answer to your question, I fear for us humans, especially my sister’s children. They may grow up in a world of utter chaos because unfettered use of oil and gas is like pyramid schemes, and given my employment background, I can’t see the petro-energy supply lasting their lifetime (unless there is a significant change in its use).
However, I still wonder why you suggest that the oil will last another 1800 years at today’s consumption rate. It is far higher than any I’ve seen elsewhere
keep aw AT from my lifestyle. It’s my energy to use as I See ft. Frayed fur it not Yos. So mind your own affairs.
ok then tell me what your real
totally unbiased opinion is of Course that will never happen you’re inheritably biased to say way less to keep the myth of Supply & Demand in Focus!!!
1,800 years?? Can you cite any sources that agree with your figure. I previously worked in Oil & Gas exploration, and your figure seems a little…optimistic.

American Imperialism learned from British Imperialism, which makes sense since America was spawned from a British colony.
British satire at it’s best. This man is brilliant. He shows how Social darwinism with a dash imperialistic capitalism is the foundation of the west. Sad but true.
The average houses use 30 Kwh a day when it could easily be 6kwh. Electric cars available for less than $10,000 and are being built by people all the time which can cover 80% of all journeys.
Its not solutions that are lacking.
Its you! Change your habits. Enviroman will show you.
has no relevance to reality. comedy is being used to distract you from critical thinking. Peak oil is a myth that has been used every 10-20 years totally played out. we have enought to last almost 1,800 years @ todays consumption rate only using known reserve. get the facts straight. displays a blatant hatred for the very things that make the modern life they enjoy possible. It does not take more calories to produce food than the calories produced. things get better with time not worse.
Hello from the birth place of the modern oil industry aaaannnndddd the cancer capitol of the U S! But hey, that’s just a lucky coinky dink, right? RIGHT!?!?
right ok a fair few english know it and it is easier to put a point like this forward on T.V over here… but you go out tonight and ask people if they know or more inportantly care.. i can tell you now not a lot if any people will.. some of us know whats happening and has happend over here and so do some in america… ie bill hicks..
yeah but the British know it, while the Americans are still asleep.
the point was britain is as bad .. douche
haha.. good stuff!! America could learn a lot from Britain.
To understand anything about British policy East of the Bosphorus you must first understand, good fucking lucking luck, India. The British may have conquered India, but India ended up controlling the British.
no problem!
This should be front page YouTube every day, most viewed ever. This guy is in my ‘dream dinner party guest list’.
Thank you whenthesumis for pointing me in the direction of more gold, you filthy pirate you :p
there is a torrent file with robert newman’s “apocalypso now” show on mp3, which is essentially the same as this show. i think if you search “political satire” you will find it.
Wake up people why close your eyes…the truth with a few laughs very informative!
Peace be upon you
great to see rob back as was a big mary whitehouse and newman and baddiel fan back in the day, Baddiel may have gone on to a more publicized success story (three lions song: eugh) but Rob is my fave and programmes like this need to be viewed by a younger audience, i particularly agree with the world war 1 point he made i never once got a valid explanation for the start of that war, thank you for finally answering that question
