Nick Dixon and Toby Young Talk About Will Wragg’s “Bravery” Sending Fellow MPs’ Phone Numbers to a Sexting Blackmailer, Angela Rayner’s Tax Lies and the Tories’ Latest Poster Fail

by Will Jones
10 April 2024 7:00 AM

Welcome to the Weekly Sceptic episode 83 (recorded live at the Hippodrome).

This week:

  • Will Wragg is praised for being “brave” by Jeremy Hunt after sending intimate photos to a spear phisher and then, when blackmailed, handing over fellow MPs’ phone numbers
  • The Tories issue a poster with the dubious claim that the U.K. is the second most powerful country in the world and prove this by including photos of an American jet and a Swiss ship
  • Angela Rayner is caught telling porkies to avoid capital gains tax and David Lammy’s attempts to defend her make things exponentially worse
  • Toby is described in the Telegraph as a “Right-wing hate figure” in a surprisingly positive article
  • Plus everyone’s favourite section, Peak Woke, and premium content which this week includes:
    • The Rock announces he won’t be endorsing either Presidential candidate because he’s too famous and doesn’t want to influence the result
    • No Labels folds its tent, thereby giving Biden a much-needed boost
    • And in the Based Department, Nick nominates Angela Rayner’s cushion for proving she was lying about the house she sold being her primary residence.
