"Having the deeper discussions mainstream media won't provide."
Founded in 2006, the NCF is one of Britain's leading conservative think tanks. Our mission is to challenge the cultural orthodoxies dominant in our institutions, public life and wider culture.
So What You're Saying Is... (#SWYSI) is our weekly interview programme, NewSpeak is our weekly "in-house" discussion show, and CounterCulture is our panel discussion with experts and significant figures from the political, cultural and academic worlds.
Our goal is to provide what the MSM won't: a platform for leading voices & experts from politics, culture, academia etc. to engage in calm, constructive and enlightening discussions on the most critical issues of today.

Our Parasitic New Elite Despises the Working Class. Culture Wars & The Decline of the West.
On today's #NCFWhittle we are joined once again by Professor Doug Stokes, Professor of International Relations at the University of Exeter, and author of the new book "Against Decolonisation: Campus Culture Wars & The Decline of the West".
Following the killing of George Floyd in 2020, a moral panic gripped the US and UK. To atone for an alleged history of racism, statues were torn down and symbols of national identity attacked. Across universities, fringe theories became the new orthodoxy, with a cadre of activists backed by university technocrats adopting a binary worldview of moral certainty, sin and deconstructive redemption through Western self-erasure.
In his hard-hitting book, Prof. Stokes surveys these developments for the first time. He unpacks and challenges the theories and arguments deployed by ‘decolonisers’ in a university system now characterised by garbled leadership and illiberal groupthink. The desire to question the West’s sense of itself, deconstruct its narratives and overthrow its institutional order is an impulse that, ironically, was underpinned by a more confident and assured Western hegemony, which is now waning and under great strain. If its light continues to dim, who or what will carry the torch for human freedom and progress?

ULEZ: Punishing the Poor. Time for Notting Hill Carnival to End? Is Britain a Christian Nation?
On today's #NCFNewspeak, NCF Director Peter Whittle and Senior Fellow Rafe Heydel-Mankoo are once again joined by Amy Gallagher of Stand Up To Woke to discuss:
* A major survey of Anglican clergy finds that a majority of clergy believe Britain is no longer a Christian country and want the Church to abandon traditional teaching and adopt modern social trends.
* Sadiq Khan's ULEZ -- is it a war on cars and the poor?

Sadiq Khan's Anti-White Agenda. Should UK Restore Death Penalty / Capital Punishment?
On this week's episode of #NCFNewspeak, NCF Director Peter Whittle & Senior Fellow Rafe Heydel-Mankoo are joined by special guest Amy Gallagher of Stand Up to Woke. Topics discussed:
* Following nurse Lucy Letby's conviction for murdering babies under her care, should she receive the death penalty? Is it time to bring back capital punishment to Britain?
