"This Piano Is A CCP Free Zone" | Brendan Kavanagh Speaks Out Against China With Winnie The Pooh

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ม.ค. 2024
- A recent viral video featuring the piano-playing artist Brendan Kavanagh has become a prime example of the Streisand Effect, where attempts to suppress information or art only serve to amplify its reach.
Brendan Kavanagh, a British pianist with 2.2 million followers on TH-cam @DrKBoogieWoogie was live-streaming a public performance of his piano riffs when the group of Chinese nationals was incidentally captured in the background. The Chinese nationals asked him not to record them, insisting he did not have the right to share their images online.
The Piano was roped off and closed to the public before being reopened today when Brendan Kavanagh returned to play and made an impassioned speech.
Brendan Kavanagh explains to the assembled crowd that he is holding Winnie the Pooh because the beloved character "has been banned by the CCP.. this shows the power of the arts to undermine authoritarianism."
He said today's performance was "a blow for artistic freedom" and the piano at St Pancras had become "a CCP little pink freezone."

That CCP women proclaimed in the Little Red Book that they were not wrong and they did not lose (meaning they won). She said the British police were on their side and now Brendan is not allowed to play that piano anymore because "he had violated the rules". She also said the British police were helping them to get Brendan to delete those footage they demanded.

As a Chinese, I hope the whole world is CCP free.
Amen
China would be catholic - true catholic if not for CCP and the masonery jews
Good luck to you
I hope your gonna be safe and happy for all your life
me too
Me too. Glad to see you guys!
As a Hong Konger, I stand with you , thank you so much for supporting free speech. 🎤 ❤
Stay strong! Never forget what they did to our home.
Stay in the UK & live like the natives !
As a Hong kong citizen you just lost a lot of social credit.
Yeah! We finally got a speech!
Stand strong Hong Kong. From a Singaporean Chinese
All this could have been avoided if they'd just minded their own business, but then we wouldn't have seen them for what they are. Like the man says "The camera never lies". Respect to you Brendan
What upset me most about the interaction with the communists was that the police officer was willing to comply with the chinese. Shame on her for not upholding a free society.
Yes. This needs to be investigated.
Sadly it shows little sign of stopping because the world wants the CCP's money.
I was angry when the cops took their side! I would expect that more in the states than GB.
Sadly, in much of the US there could never be a piano in a public place, for public use. It would get destroyed in less than a day.
We can't have nice things here anymore.
They’ve booked him a place in a reeducation camp.
@@LazyIRanchnah Sadly UK police is completely woooed by wokeness. Completely afraid to be caught in a shitstorm of criticism (or rather Maosim)
It's not racist, we are just making fun of a certain Chinese person's fragile ego.
That's true, also saying that this is racist is like saying all the caricatures of Trump are racist. It's just not.
Fragile it is then.
The "Chinese race" isn't a thing anyways, is it?
hmm I think it is. a lot of the asian countries are distinctly different @@diggie9598
No, it's racist against authoritarians. :P
Someone from a country with no right to privacy is roaring for her privacy to be protected. How ridiculous!
Thank your for your voice for Taiwan.
I am from mainland China, I support Dr K and anyone who values democracy and freedom.
Take it you have moved?
@@mgiles5507 I also have mainland friends who don’t support their government. They just don’t voice it on social media
@@PavlovVRGameplay They are not even connected in the same internet, I think.
Be careful my friend, hopefully your government don’t identify you from your TH-cam channel they may place you in a camp
Do u think this is really about Democracy? Shame on you
Imagine being so afraid of a stuffed bear that you have to ban it. 🙄
It's more insidious than that. The CCP is not afraid of WTP, their leader was compared to WTP, which he was offended by, so he ordered any and all images of WTP banned. Imagine that for just a moment..... A single man in charge gets offended by something so innocuous as being compared to one of the most beloved children's characters in a fictional series of books and movies that he bans the images altogether in the entire country! One man has unlimited power in the authoritarian regime of the CCP. I can only imagine the outrage if the President of the United States suddenly had that much unchecked power to outlaw something he simply did not like. The concept is frightening to me and antithetical to the idea of freedom.
😂 That puts a humorous spin on it. Quite true.
How I can get it ? I’m in Australia
Dictators are often gormless, spineless cowards. Putler reportedly fears Dobby the house elf from Harry Potter because it looks like him, and has banned any comparison between him and Dobby.
Imagine being so afraid of K-pop that you have to ban it. 🙄
As a Portuguese, I salute Brendan!! For his response to the CCP authoritarianism. In the West, we have something they don't have: Freedom!! And the Right to Free Speech, as we think, and as the way we want to live and want to work. Something, they are not able to do in China, what so ever !!!
I wouldn't say we have freedom anymore in the West (but yeah, it's worse there in China).
We have so much freedom the ministers are free to steal whatever they want.
Keep standing up for freedom!
That CCP woman and 🤡🤡🤡🤡 must be fired from any British-paying job
👍
STOP TOUCHING HER !!! 😂😂😂
@@danielnguyen2399 YOU ARE NOT THE SAME AGE!!!
DO NOT SHOOT
The Chinese guy brutally harassed Brandon in public, he should be called out and take responsibility somewhere in British police station.
Good man. Taiwan and Hong Kong are in awful situations. You are a hero for your handling of the whole situation.
The same in Macao, that nobody acknowleges
No coincidence with Covid origins and the timing of what was happening in Hong Kong.
Britain is better?
Funny how this channel don’t say much about Palestine suffering under Israel
FREE TIBET!
Thanks!
This is our VOICE!!
A HongKonger from Canada
100% support
Well done Mr Brendan! That's the way to stand for free speech 👍👍
I'm so glad I believe in free speech and freedom of expression. Something that "rebellious" black people keep on abiding!
*Dr. Brendan
Standing by your side!!!!
Go Brendan!!!!!!!!!
Dr. K we stand by and with you against authoritarian regimes, like the CCP.
Bravo. As a Chinese good to see someone making a stand against the thugs of the CCP.
You are not Chinese
@@tforaodg chiNese is people in china = CCP member
粉红走到哪里，反共阵地就开到哪里，粉红们要加油了
Same here, I am a Singapore Chinese and i make a stand against these CCP Chi-na !!!
Free Tibet
Free Inner Mongolia
Free Xinjiang/East Turkistan
Free Northern Vietnam
Free Manchuria
Free Hong Kong
Free Jimmy Lai
Free the good people of China
Free TH-cam
And keep Taiwan and Indo Pacific region Free
Free from the evils of the CCP Chinese Criminal Party
Taking the piss, how very British of you. Love it.
He is completely right on this. As a hobbyist artist, I can tell you that art will always bring freedom. Art is not optional for humans, and it's what tears down totalitarian control, because it shares ideals and inspiration across cities, borders, ethnicities, peoples and nations. If you want freedom, support your local artists!
The pianist and the piano who stood up for Democracy.
Thank you Mr. Kavanagh. I am Chinese, born in Hong Kong, emigrated to the US, and therefore still free to speak out. Bravo to you and other artists !!!
Welcome to America!
You are a Hongkonger then😊😊👍👍
@@user-ew8vi9yu7d wish nothing but the best to you all!
bullshit
@@diaosibuku 😂😂
Brendan your a breath of fresh air 😄 brilliant, keep up your brave inspiring music, love ot
Beautiful 👍. Thank you Dr. K🌹
Your stance against that Chinese group and the police officer a few days ago showed great strength of character, composure and resilience in the situation. You were perfectly within your rights to be doing what you were doing and the Chinese were completely in the wrong; the incompetent, idiotic police officer did nothing other than compound the injustice!
Fully agree and that police officer should be publicly warned
They are our protectors and our public servants they should be protecting Britain
Not bowing down incase someone pulls a nasty race card
Cos they are scared !
Defund that officer
To be fair, that doozy copper was unaware that Newton Ling bloke was a COMMIE SPY with a gun who was acting as MINDER for HIGH LEVEL COMMIE SPIES.
UK Police don't seem to understand their job is to protect British citizens not everything and everyone non British.
@@amethystfeathers7324 UK Polices seem scared of their own shadow🤣
As a Chinese I appreciate you Sir for standing up for freedom of speech 🎤
Amen
China would be catholic - true catholic if not for CCP and the masonery jews
Good on you
I hope you live free and happy for a long time
Thank you sir!!!🎉🎉👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👏👏👏
Hurray Dr. K, a real hero against CCP, thank you so much for what you have done to demonstrate the real value of freedom/liberty to CCP! As a Taiwanese, I acclaim such a historical movement of free expression with music and dance as well in a hilarious way against the current authoritorianism in the world. May democracy and liberty live for good!
Not a clash of cultures, it was authoritarianism trying to force a free society person to behave as they have to, disgusting
AKA: a clash of cultures.
@@indifferentadvocate1737 more a clash of ideologies
@@hoyes127an ideology is just explicit articulation of a culture’s values and principles.
Free society?
Agree, the CCP has power in mainland China, but as Hong Kong and Taiwan show, they can’t claim to be a universally accepted part of Chinese culture.. not to mention the people in mainland China who don’t support CCP. Chinese culture is ancient, CCP is a recent blip on the radar, and it won’t last.
This man is giving the CCP his " FINGER " as a gift 🤣
Realistically the CCP isn't as much of a threat to us as woke authoritarianism is. It's political correctness that is destroying our country, not china
100%......good for Brendan
So glad you are speaking up for yourself, for England and artistic freedom!
Thanks Brendan, and good to see you having fun and also making everyone listening to you happy and enjoying every moment of it.
Thank you Brenden for standing up against the communist party 🙏🏻
The piano has been released from police custody after several days interrogation. The right to free speech is something we need to fight for everyday. Until someone takes it away you do not realise what you are losing. I had the pleasure of meeting a couple who had left Hong Kong for the UK and they told me that the best thing about the UK was the freedom to say what you wanted. To most people in the UK that seems a small thing, until it is removed. Well done Brendan for fighting for freedom.
Well, the piano was a key witness in the situation!!
Why was the piano even locked up???? Were those in authority (London/Police/the Station) afraid of the evil Chinese government?? (clarification: Chinese are not evil...I married one!)
Do not overestimate the freedom of speech in UK. People are in prison for "malicious communication"
well said @charleswillcock3235, absolutely imporant is the free speech, we all saw in europe during pandamic time, how important that was und in several cases, people got job trouble, when they say the truth, so , thumbs up for the guy on the piano, greetings from Germany
The piano was released after remaining silent. It was just getting used to the young man who played Bohemian Rhapsody. 😅😅😅
HERE HERE! cheers to freedom lovers around the world!
Thanks Brendan for standing up to the CCP! I’m from Hong Kong, and so proud that you’re supporting us!!❤❤🥹
bullshit, bringing in politics cliche into a normal fight
@@diaosibuku What's a politics cliché? :D
@@ZerosiiniFIN Agree, doesn’t seem to make much sense!
I lived over in Hong Kong for a while and I was made to feel so welcome. I stand with Hong Kong and Taiwan and free speech as well as the freedom of the arts
Free Tibet
Free Inner Mongolia
Free Xinjiang/East Turkistan
Free Northern Vietnam
Free Manchuria
Free Hong Kong
Free Jimmy Lai
Free the good people of China
And keep Taiwan and Indo Pacific region Free

More people should strive to be more like Dr K. He stood for his own rights and freedom and shed more light to people around the world the oppressive and bullying tactics of the CCP.
Like you 👍I totally agree with you ❤
Agreed and on top of this, a very good reason to give the conservatives another term, labour will not be strong enough to stand up to China.
100% agree. We need more of this in the UK. Its a shame it has got to this point before someone stands up
He’s just trying to get more clicks!
its ok, hes a nice person with nicely instilled liberty values. He doesnt like to live in a world where people cant say things lest they offend another one and end up jailed. Or dead. Good day.@@eternalsunshine6839
Thx❤ from Taiwan
Well done Brendan Kavanagh. I adore your attitude and your piano playing.
Huge thanks to you Brendan standing up against the oppressive communist rule.
This is turning into a propaganda site against China . China had nothing to do with this .
Unbelievable, they thought they were going to bully some random musician. Now they know Dr. K, the legend.
@@sndkfnsknlfdsklnsdk1070 They barked on the wrong tree.
Dr. K, as a Hong Konger, I would like to thank you for flighting against the CCP. Keep up the good work on defending freedom.
El no ataco

fight, not flight😂
Liberty for Hong Kong
Freedom for Hong Kong!!
Long live Britain. Time to hit back. Stop buying Chinese rubbish and get more Boogie Woogie. Brendan is a star.
Well done
Chinese living in Britain supports you 100% ❤❤
You are great people! I lived in China 11 years, married one, her family is now with us in America, and I lived in Britain 2 years 15 years ago and loved how on every street corner I could find Chinese people and hear Mandarin, my favorite language!
Thanks from Holland for your supporting en great respons, ik think that that is the way it worcks. Embrase the freedom en live and let Live.
Hey I would like to order 2 x Nr 16, 1 x Nr 122b without soy sprouts, 1 x 205 with extra ginger, please thank you very much
This is something I never thought I’d say in 2024. I’m glad the piano got out of jail.
Thank you, Dr, K.
I am a Hongkonger and would like to express my gratitude for your efforts in fighting for our freedom ❤
不走上街头就没有政治。香港精英都是语言天才，请像钢琴家一样，大胆在英国街头向西人传递真相和诉求

I have a guy from Hong Kong working for me in my team. The stories he has told me about the Chinese since the handing back of Hong Kong are quite harrowing. He is so glad to be in England.
Well done Brendan, you have a lot of us on your side.
Oh if you had known what they did to their people, you believed there’re evils walking in the world.
Cuanta algunas
Stand with Freedom, thank you Brendan!!!
Well Done Brendan K....!!!
Thank you Brendan Kavanagh for standing up to the CCP and the miserable "Little Pinks". This is a good example of the fact that even if you're not potlical, you'll still come into conflict with them at some point in some way if you're from the free world. We're literally worlds apart.
Whoever imagined that Winnie the Pooh would become an anti-communist symbol? 😮
Chinese people themselves made the connection between WTP and the look on Xi Jiping face.
If you have a cake and you put 2 sticks on it to make it look like a tank, you will also get banned as well like certain famous Chinese streamers.
That streamer said "My competition set this up".
I wanted it to be Cookie Monster...but oh well, can't win them all. :)
I knew this years ago but wow. This is going to get more crazier.
*Boogie Woogie* meets *Winnie the Pooh*
I’m 100% supporting
Well Done
Thank you Dr K for the wakeup call to the rest of Britain and the rest of civilized world. You are a blessed soul.
I agree
England needs to discipline the police officers that immediately sided with the CCP against their own citizens. Shameful
Was the Rochester report not a wakeup call?
The piano is now the weapon of choice to defend freedom of speech!
Not really. Communists and fascists play music too. Freedom to make music is different from freedom to speak your mind without fear of punishment.
Speaking your mind takes alot more courage.
It used to be that "the pen is stronger than the sword" now it's "The Piano(music) is stronger than the CPP 50c army's voice"
Imagine pianos are now under a ban list in china for politic reasons now.
@@11tea82 They'd never have genuinely open public pianos. They'd post party members to be official players playing propaganda all day.
This is all about control of the spirit of music.
Free HongKong, Free Uyghur, Free Neimungu, Free Tibetan and Free Taiwan!! God bless people who suppressed by CCCP
支持您的做法民主社會就是有言論自由，歡迎您來台灣表演，我們也在保護台灣民主自由，不被中國侵略搶奪。因為中國一直說台灣是中國領土。來台灣體驗最美的風景就是人。

CCP is still a big threat all over the world. We need more people like you to stand up for freedom ! Thank you.
Almost all countries have deals with CCP.Even many yt advertisements are from China. The British government is the largest CCP partner. Look at the assets of British parliamentarians in China.😂
Seems the only thing he is standing up for is his TH-cam channel and his crappy piano playing
@@Johnny424-vk6qe if you were to touch a musical instrument you would crumble to dust.
It’ll collapse under its own weight soon contrary to what western “experts” think we idolize and fear them cause our elites want to be like them
Love it stand for your rights or lose them! Thank you Brendan love from Sweden ❤
Yeah. You make this piano never be the tool of CCP propaganda overseas. Thank you so much.
I just hope and pray that if an Asian, or even a beloved Chinese immigrant/visitor plays, they won't be hated by being assumed part of the CCP...most are not!!!
Well said! Stand for the freedom of speech, stand for Taiwan and Hong Kong
Then Free Snowden and Assange. Free Gaza and Okinawa. USA runs the biggest prison in the world and torture camps in Guantanamo Bay
nonsense
I am so happy to see you got enormeous respect and support from chinese people. Go on protesting K, ,you are my hero.
what an eye opener, thanks man! i just subscribed ❤
Not all heroes wear capes... Some just want to play piano.
Sincerely, thank you for not bending the knee to the commies, sir. You are a shining example of how people in a free society need to respond to this commie nonsense.

My father had the same ability. Always good fun to hear.
I love it!
What a hero 🤣 freedom of speech and expression is brilliant really talented person love it 🇬🇧
Thank you for standing up to Hong Kong and Taiwan. I can’t wait for your crossover with Namewee in the foreseeable future. We got suppressed and suffocated for so long that this is like a breathe of fresh air.
Get out CCP !!
This is the British Culture I remembered from long ago !
The warrior spirit is making a comeback.
As A Taiwanese, Totally Agree with YOU!
So well said, right on, you nailed this. Bravo you are a hero world wide.
Thank you Dr. K. for fighting for free speech, and helping us to discover the Newton's 4th law, "Don't touch her."
Always on your side. Glory to UK, glory to Hong Kong, glory to Tibet, glory to Xinjiang, glory to freedom.
Wow, just wow!

As a Hong Konger, I really envy you having such right of free expression

Those mainlanders
We should never of left you guys. If you were a British protectorate they wouldn't dream of it. And you'd be able to say what you like
That is why we, none of us, can take Freedom for granted. We must always stand up for what is a God-given right. ✝️🙏☘️🇮🇪🇺🇸🌎
It wasn't that long ago that you had the same free expression.
👏👏 it starts somewhere.. i commend you sir. To play music in public is a great example of Freedom.
Thanks Dr K, I love you, bravo speech.
Great speech Brendan! As a mainland Chinese I'm so glad to see someone from western country stand up and speak against the dictatorship and insolence of CCP and Xi jinping, whose name is even unspeakable in China here.

If you're in China right now, you must be using a VPN, right?
Well somebody remind me, in Harry Potter movie, what happens if somebody say lord Voldemort ‘ name?😂
@@pchound5962 We're doing something illegal😂
This is why so many are wanting the Chinese coming to the USA to not be allowed to purchase land here, due to their views and the illegal wrong doings they are doing here. It is becoming a State issue with the Government in Oklahoma, Texas, and many other states. It is a shame that we peoples can’t live together and respect that there are so many diverse beliefs and ways. This is what causes prejudice amongst all peoples . So sad that the past is still a part of our reality, seems it will never change, other than through Devine intervention. 😟😔
Amazing musical skills...I vote for pooh, the piano and Dr. K.
