In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with historian and writer Ed West for a wide-ranging conversation on Islam, Christianity, and the civilisational history shaping Britain, Europe, and the modern West.
We begin with the Battle of Tours in 732, and examine whether Christian resistance prevented Europe from becoming Muslim, before tracing the rapid expansion of Islam across the Middle East, North Africa, and Iberia. Ed explains the role of warfare, taxation, and power in religious conversion, and challenges modern myths about a peaceful Islamic golden age.
The discussion moves through the Crusades, Britain’s historical relationship with Islam, Barbary piracy, and Christian slavery, before turning to the decline of Christianity in the Middle East, and the radicalisation of Islam in Western diaspora communities.
We also debate whether Britain and America are Christian or Judeo-Christian societies, exploring the biblical foundations of English law, the influence of the Old Testament, and why this question has returned amid modern political and cultural conflict.
A sharp historical conversation about religion, war, identity, and what the past reveals about the present.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with historian and bestselling author Giles Milton for a deep historical conversation about the Second World War, the alliance with Stalin, and the decisions that shaped the post-war world.
We explore how Winston Churchill came to ally with Joseph Stalin after Hitler’s invasion of the Soviet Union, despite viewing communism as a murderous and authoritarian system. Giles explains the extraordinary political reversal of 1941, the moral compromises involved, and why Churchill saw the alliance as a necessary pact with the devil.
The discussion moves through the Nazi-Soviet Pact, Lend-Lease, the meetings at Tehran, Yalta, and Potsdam, and the immense role American industrial power played in defeating Hitler. We examine how Stalin manipulated his allies, outmanoeuvred Roosevelt, and secured control of Eastern Europe, laying the foundations for the Cold War.
We also discuss the betrayal of Poland, the division of Germany, the origins of the Iron Curtain, and Churchill’s secret plans to confront the Soviet Union after the war, revealing how fragile the wartime alliance truly was.
A fascinating conversation about power, war, pragmatism, and how the alliance that defeated Nazism reshaped the world that followed.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with activist and self-described decolonisation campaigner Xavier Soylash for a confrontational interview on radical identity politics, gender ideology, communism, and the future of Britain.
We examine claims that the Union Jack is a symbol of fascism worse than the Nazi flag, the rejection of biological sex, and the argument that borders, nationhood, and private property are colonial constructs that must be abolished. This conversation follows the logic of modern progressive ideology taken to its most extreme conclusions.
Soylash defends Marxism, Lenin, Stalin, and Mao, dismisses historical death tolls as Western propaganda, and argues that communism has never truly been tried because the left has never gone far enough. We debate decolonisation, gender identity, radical inclusivity, and whether ideology has replaced evidence, history, and common sense.
The discussion also covers Ukraine, the Azov Battalion, COVID boosters, mass migration, open borders, polyamory, and cousin marriage, revealing the worldview driving the most radical elements of today’s political left.
A tense and revealing interview that exposes how far identity politics has gone and asks whether radical progressivism ultimately collapses under the weight of its own contradictions.

Journalist and podcaster Andrew Gold joins The Winston Marshall Show for a revealing conversation on cults, cancel culture, and the psychology of belief in the modern age.
Gold draws on his investigations into extremist movements, online radicalisation, and high control groups to explain why so many people are drawn to rigid ideologies that promise meaning, belonging, and moral certainty. He outlines how cult dynamics now operate through social media, identity politics, and activist movements that punish dissent and reward conformity.
They discuss cancel culture as a modern shaming ritual, the fear driving self censorship in media and academia, and why journalists are increasingly pressured to abandon truth in favour of ideological safety. Gold also reflects on his own experiences being targeted for asking the wrong questions and platforming the wrong people.
All this cult psychology, belief systems, cancel culture, moral panic, and why so many people are desperate for certainty in a chaotic world.

Former Security Minister and Conservative MP Tom Tugendhat joins The Winston Marshall Show for a stark warning about China’s growing threat to Britain and the West’s failure to confront it.
Tugendhat explains why China is not just an economic competitor but a systemic challenger attempting to reorder the global system around Beijing. From economic espionage and intellectual property theft to the infiltration of British universities and critical infrastructure, he lays out how the Chinese Communist Party is exploiting Western openness to hollow out our future.
They discuss the proposed Chinese “super embassy” next to the Tower of London, the intimidation of dissidents on British soil, and why Chinese law obliges all companies and citizens to cooperate with state intelligence. Tugendhat also exposes Britain’s dangerous dependency on Chinese supply chains, rare earths, technology and manufacturing, and why this poses a direct threat to jobs, free speech and national security.
The conversation widens to foreign ownership of British infrastructure, the failures of past governments, and how decades of economic mismanagement have left the UK vulnerable to hostile powers.
All this China Britain relations economic espionage national security Chinese influence academia infrastructure dependency and the uncomfortable question of whether Britain is prepared to defend itself in a changing world.

Former investment banker and ESG “whistleblower” Desiree Fixler joins The Winston Marshall Show to expose what she says is one of the biggest financial scams of the modern era.
Fixler explains how she helped build the ESG and stakeholder capitalism framework from inside Wall Street before discovering it was being used to mislead investors, overcharge consumers, and rebrand powerful elites after the financial crash. Drawing on her time as Chief Sustainability Officer at Deutsche Bank’s trillion dollar asset manager, she reveals how ESG labels were slapped onto funds with no evidence, no data, and no accountability.
She describes how ESG became mandatory through regulation, how net zero and DEI targets distorted corporate decision making, and why trillions were diverted into unprofitable green projects while energy prices soared. Fixler recounts blowing the whistle internally, being fired, smeared, and forced to rebuild her life from scratch before US and German authorities later confirmed widespread ESG fraud
We discuss Klaus Schwab, the World Economic Forum, stakeholder capitalism versus shareholder capitalism, the role of consultants and regulators, and why Fixler believes ESG has undermined growth, trust, and democracy across the West.
A rare inside account of how ESG really worked, who profited, and why the whole system is now beginning to collapse.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Glenn Beck, the legendary broadcaster and author, for one of his most powerful interviews yet, a deep exploration into the rise of antisemitism, the collapse of faith in the West, and the eerie historical parallels between Weimar Germany and America today.
Beck warns that what we’re witnessing, from the “Christ is King” movement to the mainstreaming of old Nazi-style conspiracies, is not new, but the latest cycle of an ancient hatred that always returns when a society loses its moral and spiritual anchor. He traces the pattern from the transgender experiments of 1920s Berlin to today’s ideological confusion, arguing that both moments reveal what happens when truth and individual conscience give way to collectivism.
We discuss the purity tests dividing modern Christianity, the attempt to erase the “Judeo” from Judeo-Christian values, and why defending Israel’s right to exist is not just a political stance, but a civilizational one. Beck calls on believers of all faiths to reject hatred, defend truth, and stand with the Jewish people before history repeats itself.
This is a profound and prophetic conversation about faith, evil, and what happens when the West forgets its soul.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I’m joined by Josh Hammer, conservative commentator and author of Israel and Civilisation, for a detailed breakdown of the chaos consuming the American right after the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
Hammer, a close friend of Kirk’s, explains how his murder has exposed deep fractures in the conservative movement, from figures like Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, and Nick Fuentes to mainstream Christian Zionists and pro-Israel conservatives. He describes Charlie Kirk as “the glue that held the movement together,” arguing that without him, the American right is now entering a dangerous new phase of ideological civil war.
We discuss the rise of anti-Israel sentiment among young conservatives, the spread of conspiracy theories blaming “Jewish influence” for foreign policy, and how these narratives are being legitimised by populist commentators. Hammer traces how old-school nationalism has turned nihilistic, how figures once aligned with MAGA now flirt with antisemitism, and what this all means for the future of Western conservatism.
The collapse of unity after Kirk’s death, the conservative civil war over Israel, and the dangerous resurgence of antisemitism inside America’s political right.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Dinesh D’Souza, one of America’s most influential conservative thinkers and filmmakers, for a powerful conversation on radical Islam, liberal democracy, and the new movement to rewrite World War II history.
D’Souza breaks down the recent Islamist terror attacks in America, the “red-green alliance” between the far-left and radical Islam, and how Western freedoms are now being weaponised to undermine the very democracies that protect them. He warns that liberalism’s own tolerance has become its Achilles’ heel, a paradox that threatens to unravel the moral fabric of the West.
We also explore the rise of World War II revisionism on the American right from Tucker Carlson to Nick Fuentes and D’Souza’s inside account of how Pat Buchanan’s ideas about Churchill, Hitler, and the “decline of the West” gave birth to this disturbing new ideology. Drawing on his time in the Reagan White House, D’Souza reflects on the philosophical roots of American conservatism, the tension between liberty and order, and how inflation and cultural decay are eroding the civilisation the Founders built.
All this plus Islamist radicalisation, the fall of assimilation, liberal democracy’s blind spots, and the dangerous rewriting of history now shaping America’s right.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Bob of Speakers' Corner, one of Britain’s most recognisable street preachers and Christian debaters, for a provocative conversation about faith, free speech, and the future of Britain’s identity.
Bob recounts how a Muslim once tried to convert him to Islam, an encounter that instead led him to Christianity and set him on a mission to defend the faith at London’s Hyde Park, one of the last true bastions of free speech in the UK. He discusses the rise of Islamist intimidation at Speakers' Corner, from stabbings and arson attacks to police indifference and media silence, and why he believes Britain is now a post-free speech country.
We explore Bob’s vision of a Christian nation, his critique of liberal secularism, and his warning against both Islamism and ethno-nationalism, which he sees as twin dangers to the soul of Britain. He argues that only a return to Judeo-Christian values, the foundation of British law and morality, can rescue the country from cultural decay.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Sir Richard Evans, Britain’s leading historian of Nazi Germany and the chief expert witness in the landmark David Irving v. Deborah Lipstadt trial: a case that exposed the methods and motives behind Holocaust denial.
Eighty years on from the end of World War Two, Evans warns that we are entering a new age of historical falsification, where the Holocaust is downplayed, Churchill is recast as the villain, and Hitler is bizarrely rehabilitated by a new generation of so-called “revisionists.”
We discuss the rise of online pseudo-historians and the viral spread of Nazi revisionism, and why figures like Nick Fuentes, Norman Finkelstein, and Daryl Cooper are reviving narratives once pioneered by Irving. Evans explains how this distortion of history threatens not only truth itself but the moral foundations of the West.
The rebirth of Holocaust denial, the war on truth, and the dangerous rewriting of our collective memory.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with journalist Emily Schrader to unpack the growing ideological fracture inside the American right over Israel, Gaza, and US foreign aid.
Schrader explains how debates over Israel have become the new battleground from Megyn Kelly to JD Vance, Dave Smith, and the rising “groyper” movement. She explores how online algorithms, anti-establishment anger, and a resurgence of antisemitic tropes are reshaping right-wing politics in ways no one seems able to control.
We examine the clash between “America First” isolationists and traditional pro-Israel conservatives, the spread of dual loyalty rhetoric and AIPAC narratives, and why younger conservatives are being pulled toward extremist figures like Nick Fuentes. Schrader also sets out why Israel’s struggle with Iran, Hamas, and Hezbollah matters directly to American security, and how states like Qatar and Iran stand to benefit when the American right turns against Israel.
This episode looks at the new conservative realignment, the rise of groyper ideology, the political implications for JD Vance, and what this shift means for the future direction of the American right.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Ryan Williams, the Scottish musician, former Netflix contestant, and outspoken critic of Islam whose return to Britain has ignited an international media storm.
After being detained under anti-terror laws at Heathrow and de-banked, Ryan tells his story for the first time from being banned by Virgin Atlantic to having his phones and laptop seized under Schedule 7 of the Terrorism Act. He explains how his criticism of Islam, first aired on Australian television, made him one of the most controversial voices in Britain’s free speech debate.
We explore Britain’s shrinking tolerance for dissent, the blurred line between hate speech legislation and political persecution, and the question of what free expression really means in a nation that once prided itself on liberty. Ryan reflects on the personal cost he has paid, including family estrangement, financial blacklisting, and constant threats, and why he continues to speak out despite the consequences.
This episode dives into his arrest, de-banking, the Islamophobia dispute, the state of free speech in Britain, and the future of Western liberty in an age defined by fear.

Britain is at a breaking point, and on this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Rob Bates, founder of the Centre for Migration Control, for a forensic breakdown of Shabana Mahmood’s new asylum and immigration reforms.
We dig into what these proposals really mean: from 20-year settlement routes, the so-called “jewellery clause,” and Labour’s attempt to reframe illegal Channel crossings as an acceptable path to refugee status to the ballooning cost of asylum hotels, the collapse of border enforcement, and how Britain ended up spending billions housing people the state has lost track of.
Rob exposes the shocking scale of visa overstayers, the true size of the illegal migrant population, and why the small boats crisis is only the visible tip of a much larger system failure. We explore the data wars, crime figures, FOI revelations, nationality vs. country-of-birth disputes, and the politicised fight over who gets to define the truth.
We also get into the deeper structural rot: the ECHR bottleneck, the Modern Slavery Act being gamed, human rights loopholes exploited by foreign offenders, and how gangs, trafficking networks, and the black-market economy have embedded themselves into Britain’s immigration system.
All this, small boat crossings, overstayers, asylum hotels, the £16 billion bill, ECHR constraints, crime data controversies, and the political revolt inside Labour in a conversation cutting through the spin to what’s really happening at Britain’s borders.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Allison Pearson, journalist and columnist at The Telegraph, for a revealing conversation about the collapse of Britain’s asylum system, media bias, and the cultural denial gripping the political class.
Allison exposes how caseworkers are being forced to grant asylum to known sex offenders and violent men, including those on the sex offenders register, due to loopholes in Britain’s asylum laws. Drawing on her bombshell reporting, she explains how hundreds of thousands of illegal migrants have vanished into the system, how Home Office staff are incentivised to approve asylum claims without vetting, and how police and terror checks were suspended to meet political targets.
We discuss the BBC’s censorship and bias, the moral blindness of Britain’s ruling elites, and what Allison calls the nation’s “suicidal empathy” — a refusal to protect its own people out of fear of being called racist. From asylum hotels and rising community tensions to the far-centrism of the establishment, this is an unflinching look at how Britain lost control of its borders and what it will take to reclaim them.

Sophie, who went viral for her powerful speech at the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship, exposes how screens are rewiring children’s brains, destroying attention spans, and fuelling an epidemic of anxiety, self-harm, and gender confusion. From toddlers swiping before they can speak to schools replacing books with tablets, she warns that we are raising a generation addicted to dopamine and detached from reality.
We explore how EdTech has infiltrated classrooms, how Big Tech is monetising childhood, and why governments and charities have failed to act. Sophie argues that “Big Tech in a school uniform” is not education; it is a billion-dollar experiment on our children.
All this, from the smartphone crisis and the dangers of EdTech to the moral blindness of modern parenting, and why returning to books and real teachers may be the only way to save our children’s minds.
The interview was recorded on: 23rd September 2025

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Father Benedict Kiely, founder of Nasarean.org and one of the world’s leading voices on the persecution of Christians.
We discuss the genocide unfolding in Nigeria, where thousands of Christians are being murdered each year by Islamist militias while Western governments and media look away. Father Kiely exposes how the massacre of Christians is dismissed as “climate change” violence, a lie repeated by politicians and journalists unwilling to name Islamist extremism.
From ISIS’s resurgence across Africa and the Middle East to the silent persecution of Christians in Iraq under Iranian-backed militias, Kiely lays bare a pattern of denial stretching from Abuja to Washington. He explains how Christianity faces extinction in its ancient homelands, the failure of the West’s moral leadership, and why Europe’s collapse of faith has left it powerless to confront evil.
We also explore stories of hope, the revival of Christianity in post-communist Albania, the endurance of believers speaking Aramaic in Iraq, and why, despite centuries of persecution, faith refuses to die.
All this: Nigeria’s genocide, Islamist expansion, the silence of the West, and the rebirth of Christianity where it was once crushed.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with investigative journalist Zak Garner-Purkis for a shocking exposé on the London grooming gang cover-up that Sadiq Khan denied for years — and the Metropolitan Police’s sudden admission that they are now reviewing 9,000 potential cases of group-based child sexual exploitation across the capital.
Zak explains how his investigation uncovered official reports personally read and signed off by Sadiq Khan containing evidence of grooming gang victims — evidence that was ignored, downplayed, and hidden in plain sight. He reveals how political correctness, bureaucratic definitions, and media cowardice allowed predators to operate with impunity in London while authorities claimed the problem didn’t exist.
We discuss the failures of the Met, the political motivations behind the cover-up, and why survivors have been made invisible by those meant to protect them. Zak also shares his reporting from the French migrant camps, exposing how criminal networks traffic people across the Channel and why Britain’s border crisis and child exploitation scandal are deeply connected — symptoms of a nation unwilling to confront uncomfortable truths.
All this — London’s hidden grooming gangs, Sadiq Khan’s denials, the Met Police’s reversal, and Britain’s moral collapse.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Robert Midgley, journalist and spokesperson for the Friends of British Overseas Territories, to expose what could be Keir Starmer’s greatest political scandal yet — the quiet handover of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius.
We unpack how this shocking deal — costing British taxpayers up to £47 billion — effectively gives away sovereign UK territory in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Robert reveals how the Labour government, under pressure from international legal activists like Philippe Sands, has undermined British sovereignty and endangered one of America’s most strategic military bases, Diego Garcia.
From allegations of corruption and hacked negotiations in Mauritius to the Chinese Communist Party’s interest in the region, we examine how Britain’s political and legal elite have allowed foreign powers to dictate national policy under the banner of “decolonisation.”
We also explore the untold story of the Chagossian people — forcibly removed by the British government in the 1960s, yet still overwhelmingly pro-British today, despite decades of betrayal.
All this — the Chagos scandal, the billions in taxpayer money, China’s growing influence, and how Starmer’s Labour is sleepwalking Britain into surrendering its sovereignty.

This is my recent speech from Lugano Plan ₿ Forum where I discussed the escalating free speech crisis across Europe. I explore how Switzerland’s famed neutrality is challenged by new authoritarian trends, exemplified by the prosecution of Emmanuel Brunischolz for a social media post, and draw parallels with Germany’s raids on online speech, French digital censorship, and Britain’s growing crackdown on jokes, memes, and even silent prayer. I also delve into historical precedents of European censorship, from blasphemy laws to the Inquisition, and highlight why Bitcoin and cryptography represent crucial new frontiers in the ongoing fight for liberty. Whether you care about digital rights, liberty, or decentralisation, this talk underscores the urgent need to protect every remaining territory of freedom in the face of modern censorship.
