The 1939 Mosley speech at Earls Court was an antisemitic, fascist, anti-parliament speech framed as a call for peace with Nazi Germany and for authoritarian national renewal. Karp quoting it in an interview isn’t evidence of sympathy; it fits his reputation for provocation rather than any shared ideology. The speech itself is a clear example of populist authoritarian rhetoric built on grievance, elite conspiracy, and rejection of liberal democracy.
Fascinating that Karp reportedly recited part of the speech to Mosley’s grandson, did some tai chi, left without a goodbye, and then hired him to run Palantir’s UK operation.
The speech text is online, but I’m hesitant to link it directly given sensitivities around perceived extremist material and online moderation in the UK.

I'm british, fuck that. Read it here:

Also I'd recomend reading it, rather than getting a summary. because you need to see the banality of what he's asking for, and how tame (sadly) it is compared to currently pricks like Jenrick and Farage are asking for now.

recited from memory Again, at best its deeply weird, ungenerously its a power play, at worst is someone who's fascinated by fascism.
