‘We are deeply compromised’ Britain’s National Security Crisis with Lord Walney & MP Tom Tugendhat

In this episode of The Brink, we sit down with Lord Walney (John Woodcock) and MP Tom Tugendhat, former Security Minister, for a deep dive into Britain’s growing national security crisis. From Russian assassination plots and Chinese espionage to Iranian influence and homegrown extremism, this conversation exposes the threats the UK can no longer afford to ignore.

We discuss how Britain’s institutions have become “deeply compromised,” why successive governments have failed to act on intelligence warnings, and the urgent need to ban organisations like the Muslim Brotherhood and IRGC. This conversation explains how economic interests, political cowardice, and cultural fear have left Britain open to infiltration from hostile powers and how this weakness is being exploited on the streets through protests, intimidation, and radicalisation.

We also examine the failures of policing, the role of the media, and the question of whether Britain still takes national security seriously.

This is a sobering and essential conversation about the threats facing modern Britain and what it will take to defend the country before it’s too late.
