KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Since GB news was launched, Nigel has already seen the changes it has brought to the broadcasting landscape. Many channels and programming is duplicating the GB formats and introducing more talk shows and opinion pieces.
- Broadcasters have a big responsibility and if they get things right then they can create enormous ripples that change what happens in our country and in the world.
- Nigel has been a sensible environmentalist all his life. He doesn’t understand what the goal of net-zero emissions is when all we are doing in the UK as a country is exporting our emissions and actually creating more pollution. It creates a whole host of other problems and isn’t actually any better for the planet. We have the resources to be self-sufficient for energy but we aren’t, he asks why?
- The ramifications of Covid on society is hard to measure but we also can’t ignore the huge impact Covid restrictions have had on the countries mental health, education and children’s development. Nigel believes when we look back on this we will see that lockdowns and restrictions actually did more harm than good.
- Nigel’s treatment by other MEPs and in Brussels was very negative. After his 2016 speech it became even worse and he even got refused service in restaurant and cafes.
- It isn’t easy to ignore criticism and not care about everyone’s opinion but Nigel got to a point in 2014 where this is what he had to learn to do. Now he doesn’t even take an interest in others opinions about him, they are just that, their opinions and not his.
- Nigel believes there needs to be a Brexit 2.0. he thinks we need to leave the European Call to Human Rights to help with the large scale immigration still happening.
- The power and control big media and tech companies have now frightens Nigel. He is worried about the cancel culture we are seeing and the restriction on free speech. He can only hope that some of the challengers coming out will help disrupt these industries and allow everyone to have free will and communication, on all topics.
- The answer to labour and skill shortages isn’t immigration. Nigel states that opening the dialogue with young people and a reorientation towards them acquiring skills and trades rather than degrees could be the solution. It’s incredibly difficult to run something like an engineering company right now just on English skill sets.
