Who Funds the Left-Wing Blob? – With Charlotte Gill

Welcome to episode 16 of the Sceptic! On the show this week, host Laurie Wastell speaks to the following Daily Sceptic contributors:

Charlotte Gill, journalist, author of the Woke Waste substack and the Daily Sceptic’s newest columnist, on the Labour MPs involved in the Left-wing activist group, Hope Not Hate.

Freddie Attenborough, Director of Digital Communications at the Free Speech Union, on the Irish Government’s U-turn on its draconian hate-speech bill.

David Turver, Daily Sceptic regular and author of the Eigen Values substack, on Ed Miliband’s green cronyism.

And for our premium subscribers, Laurie speaks to freelance writer and confidence mentor Joanna Gray, on the difficulties of navigating the culture war – and how we can disagree with the woke warriors in our lives without starting a flaming row.
