No Such Thing as 'Institutional Racism'. Boris vs Parliament. Ramadan Lights in London.

As we mark Emma Webb's final appearance as host of #NCFNewspeak (she will return as an occasional guest), she, Peter Whittle & Philip Kiszely discuss: * Baroness Casey's report into the Metropolitan Police claims the force is "Institutionally Racist". Whilst there are clearly many bad apples in police uniform, can that be truly said of a force that has embraced woke ideology? * Boris Johnson appeared before the House of Commons Privileges Committee this week to explain whether he lied to Parliament over Downing Street parties during the pandemic. What are we to make of his appearance and of others like Piers Morgan who have now admitted they were wrong. * Ramadan lights have been erected in London's West End to celebrate the Muslim festival. --------------- SUBSCRIBE: If you are enjoying the show, please subscribe to our channel on YouTube (click the Subscribe Button underneath the video and then Click on the Bell icon next to it to make sure you Receive All Notifications) AUDIO: If you prefer Audio you can subscribe on itunes or Soundcloud.

On today's #NCFNewspeak, NCF Director Peter Whittle and Senior Fellows Rafe Heydel-Mankoo and Philip Kiszely discuss: * The BBC has caved in to Lineker and the institutional elite.

Does Britain Face a Permanent Left-Wing Future? Youth No Longer Become Right Wing with Age.

On today's episode of #NCFDeprogrammed, hosts Harrison Pitt and Poppy Coburn are joined by special guest Prof. Eric Kaufmann, Professor of Politics at Birkbeck College. Prof. Kaufmann discusses his fascinating Policy Exchange report examining the demographics and political beliefs of contemporary British youth. He explains why British youth are more left wing than ever and why, unlike previous generations, they are unlikely to become more right wing with age. He, Poppy and Harrison discuss the consequences this will have for Britain, both culturally and politically, as well as in areas such as freedom of speech etc. ------------------ SUBSCRIBE: If you are enjoying the show, please subscribe to our channel on YouTube (click the Subscribe Button underneath the video and then Click on the Bell icon next to it to make sure you Receive All Notifications) AUDIO: If you prefer Audio you can subscribe on itunes or Soundcloud.

"Women's Liberation" Has Left Women in a Hell of Their Own Making

Our guest on this week's #SWYSI is author & Unherd columnist Mary Harrington, author of the new book: Feminism Against Progress. Harrington argues that the industrial-era faith in progress is turning against all but a tiny elite of women. Women’s liberation was less the result of human moral progress than an effect of the material consequences of the Industrial Revolution. We’ve now left the industrial era for the age of AI, biotech and all-pervasive computing. As a result, technology is liberating us from natural limits and embodied sex differences. Although this shift benefits a small class of successful professional women, it also makes it easier to commodify women’s bodies, human intimacy and female reproductive abilities. This is a stark warning against a dystopian future whereby poor women become little more than convenient sources of body parts to be harvested and wombs to be rented by the rich. Progress has now stopped benefiting the majority of women, and only a feminism that is sceptical of it can truly defend female interests in the 21st century.

Britain's Populist Revolt has Changed Politics Forever. A Political Realignment of People vs Elites

Prof. Matthew Goodwin returns to the #SWYSI sofa to discuss his new book, "Values, Voice and Virtue: The New British Politics", a theory for the origins of our ongoing political instability: "What has caused the recent seismic changes in British politics, including Brexit and a series of populist revolts against the elite? Why did so many people want to overturn the status quo? Where have the Left gone wrong? And what deeper trends are driving these changes? "British politics is coming apart. A country once known for its stability has recently experienced a series of shocking upheavals. Matthew Goodwin, acclaimed political scientist and co-author of National Populism, shows that the reason is not economic hardship, personalities or dark money. It is a far wider political realignment that will be with us for years to come. An increasingly liberalised, globalised ruling class has lost touch with millions, who found their values ignored, their voices unheard and their virtue denied. Now, this new alliance of voters is set to determine Britain's fate."

Police act like Britain is an Islamic State. No One is Required to "Respect" Islam or the Quran.

On this week's #NCFNewspeak, NCF Director Peter Whittle and Senior Fellows Philip Kiszely and Rafe Heydel-Mankoo discuss: * Four Wakefield schools are suspended and faced police investigation and consultation with Muslim so-called "community leaders" after a copy of the Quran was damaged "without malicious intent". * Sex education classes in the Isle of Man are suspended after reports that a drag queen had been teaching school children as young as 11 that there were 73 genders and also taught them about sex change operations etc. * Why are there such extreme reactions from radical trans activists and the left when someone mistakenly but innocently misgenders someone? ------------------- SUBSCRIBE: If you are enjoying the show, please subscribe to our channel on YouTube (click the Subscribe Button underneath the video and then Click on the Bell icon next to it to make sure you Receive All Notifications) AUDIO: If you prefer Audio you can subscribe on itunes or Soundcloud.

We Teach Traditional Values & a Classical British Education Rooted in Christianity.

On this week's #SWYSI we are joined by Tom & Hayley Bowen, founders of the new King Alfred School in Dudley, Britain's first modern Christian classical school. The King Alfred School offers a classical British education that celebrates Britain's history, heritage & heroes, as well as its Christian values. The school rejects the "progressive" teaching that is ubiquitous in contemporary education, opting for the sort of schooling Winston Churchill and Isaac Newton would have received.

Britain's Woke Revolution Seeks to Demoralise Society & Refashion it Around Radical Year 0 Ideology

On this week's #NCFNewspeak, host Emma Webb is joined by NCF Senior Fellows Philip Kiszely and Rafe Heydel-Mankoo to discuss: * Roald Dahl's classic books are sanitized by "sensitivity readers" to "protect" today's children. * The Metropolitan Police give credence to the spurious claims of the far left as they dub the Cenotaph and statues of heroes such as Sir Winston Churchill "contentious" in a secret list of statues that may be attacked by far left. * Bye bye Begum! Shamima Begum loses her appeal to have her UK citizenship restored. But what about the hundreds of other security risks who live in this country despite having fought in Syria? ------------------ SUBSCRIBE: If you are enjoying the show, please subscribe to our channel on YouTube (click the Subscribe Button underneath the video and then Click on the Bell icon next to it to make sure you Receive All Notifications) AUDIO: If you prefer Audio you can subscribe on itunes or Soundcloud.

Anti-White Bigotry is Embedded in Britain and is the Last Permissible form of Racism
