Welcome to the Weekly Sceptic episode 90
This week:
In a week full of political news, Nick and Toby talk about:
- Nigel Farage’s decision to stand in Clacton and become the leader of Reform
- The many reasons Farage’s shock announcement is bad news for Rishi Sunak, including the risk that he’ll now have to contend with the Reform leader in a televised debate
- Whether Reform can replace the Tories as the leading party of the Right by 2029
- They then look across the pond to discuss Trump’s conviction and ask what it is, exactly, he’s been found guilty of?
- And premium content on www.basedmedia.org, which includes:
- A bumper week for ‘far Right’ smears, what with Tommy Robinson’s protest march, the knife attack by an Islamist at an anti-Muslim rally in Germany, and Jess Phillips’s attempt to cancel Liz Truss for appearing on Lotus Eaters
- Peak woke, or, rather, Peak Pride, as they must learn to call it this month
- What Toby intends to say to Owen Jones if they’re ever on Question Time together
- And in the Based Department the bar-owner in Idaho who’s declared June to be ‘Heterosexual Awareness Month’

It seems that Drumpf’s conviction and sentencing on July 11th, only a few days after Britain’s election, will not damage his Republican candidacy, so he may well announce his Vice-Presidential running mate soon after that.
And it turns out that there may be a very interesting reason that Nigel nearly destroyed the Reform Party to go to the States to help Drumpf win the election. The surprise Vice-President choice may be Candace Owens, whose Reform Party backer husband George Farmer (both now converted to the Catholicism/Maryolatry of Melania Drumpf), said he won’t mind being “First Husband” if Candace wants to become President of the United States.
Gordon… Blinking… Bennett.
Will Farage win, or, will the ConLabLib coalition maintain the status quo by deploying tactical voting?
Yes, Clacton is the hinge of fate. Here’s how:
