About this episode

Jack Hadfield discusses Britain's anti-immigration protests and the significance of hydrocarbons in the world.

Jack Hadfield on his time covering the frontlines of Britain’s anti-immigration protests. Plus: why hydrocarbons make the world go round. In Episode 75 of the Sceptic, host Laurie Wastell speaks to independent journalist Jack Hadfield, on the history and development of Britain’s grassroots anti-immigration protest movement, from football lads of the English Defence League, to the mass unrest after Southport and the Pink Ladies of Epping. Plus: the phoniness of ‘antifa’. And Chris Morrison, the Daily Sceptic’s Environment Editor, on why the Iran oil crisis shows how the world can’t do without hydrocarbons; the dreary woke turn of the BBC and why we don’t have to love David Attenborough; and a bombshell finding in the Antarctic ice that shatters green myths about CO2 and global temperatures.
