Shamima Begone

Welcome to The Weekly Sceptic - episode 26…The boys discuss Jacob Rees-Mogg’s GB News debut, Rishi’s Northern Ireland deal and the prominent brexiteers’ reaction to it. Nick and Toby discuss the ‘desecration’ of the Quran by pupils at a Wakefield school and whether, because of multiculturalism, Britain now has unofficial blasphemy laws. Shamima Begum makes a return to the news and Nick and Toby discuss people’s varying reactions (as well as their own) to her wishing to return. Scott Adams has been completely cancelled and the boys go into detail regarding whether it was justified, whether Adams is on the spectrum (and then, of course, inevitably they discuss whether they themselves are on the spectrum).  This week's sponsor is Thor Holt and you can find him here: https://thorholt.substack.com/  https://www.thorholt.com/ or https://www.linkedin.com/in/thorholt/ or on his Telegram channel at @thor_holt (visit https://belle-epoque.co.uk/ for Thor’s meet up).
