The Sceptic | Episode 53: Starmer’s Bizarre Bid to Brand Reform Racist, the Real Danger Posed by Labour’s Digital ID and the True Cost of Net Zero

  • Tom Jones, writer and conservative councillor, on the Labour Party conference and Keir Starmer’s bizarre attempts to smear reform as racist over its new immigration policy
  • Andrew Orlowski, business columnist at the Daily Telegraph, on the real problem with the Government’s Britcard digital ID scheme
  • And for our premium subscribers, Laurie speaks to Kathryn Porter, energy consultant and commentator, for a deep dive on just how much Net Zero is costing us, why Ed Miliband’s claims about renewables are so laughable and how the Green Crusade is putting us at risk of blackouts this winter
