  • #057 - Dr Lawrence Newport - The Collapse of Law and Order
    Mar 11 2025

    Dr. Lawrence Newport is a legal academic, researcher, and political commentator, known for his work on law, crime, and justice reform. He is also the co-founder of Looking for Growth, a movement focused on revitalising the UK’s economy, reducing bureaucracy, and restoring law and order.

    In this interview we discuss why Britain is in managed decline and how bureaucracy, crime, and political cowardice are destroying the nation. He exposes the failures in policing, justice, and infrastructure that have led to rising crime, economic stagnation, and growing public disillusionment. From shoplifting epidemics to the housing crisis and energy failures, Newport explains why the government’s refusal to take bold action is crippling the country. He reveals shocking insights into why sentencing is softer, why criminals operate with impunity, and why the UK is failing to build its way out of decline.

  • #056 - Firas Modad - How Trump Is Reshaping the World
    Mar 6 2025

    Firas Modad is a political analyst and geopolitical strategist, specializing in the intersection of power, governance, and societal change. His work explores how oligarchs, elites, and state institutions shape policy, influence public perception, and manipulate global narratives.

    In this interview, we explore the real power behind governments, the rise of populist uprisings, and why Western democracy may be failing. Modad explains how oligarchs exert control over elected officials, how free speech is being systematically dismantled, and why welfare policies can often corrupt rather than support society. We also dive into Trump’s political genius, Putin’s grip on Russia, and the collapse of Western values, offering a raw and unfiltered discussion on the forces reshaping the world today.

  • #055 - Shanker Singham - How to Fix the UK Economy
    Mar 4 2025

    Shanker Singham is a leading trade economist, competition lawyer, and policy expert, known for advising governments on free markets, regulatory reform, and trade policy, and playing a key role in shaping post-Brexit economic strategies for the UK.

    In this interview, we discuss the government decisions over the past 25 years have crippled growth, increased debt, and left everyday people struggling. Singham discusses GDP per capita decline, regulatory capture, taxation failures, and why the UK is falling behind the US and even Poland. We also discuss how entrenched elites manipulate policies for their own gain, how over-regulation kills competition, and how Brexit’s economic potential is being squandered.
