The Sceptic | Episode 82: How Britain Became an ‘Island of Strangers’ and the Security Risks of Net Zero

In Episode 82 of the Sceptic, guest host David Shipley speaks to Dr Ben Jones, Director of Case Management at the Free Speech Union and author of Island of Strangers, on how 30 years of mass migration and hyper-diversity have transformed Britain into a fragmented “society of societies”, eroded free speech, fuelled cancel culture and created the conditions for two-tier policing and rising unrest.

And for our premium subscribers, David speaks to Dr Gwythian Prins, Emeritus Professor at the London School of Economics and convenor of the Hartwell Group, on the fatal technical, economic and security flaws of Net Zero, why climate models are fundamentally broken, the impossibility of a renewables transition and how this green madness weakens Britain in a dangerous world.
