#098 - Katie Lam - The CONSERVATIVE Fightback: Borders, Belief & BRITAIN
Katie Lam, a Conservative parliamentary candidate and former senior civil servant, joins The Peter McCormack Show to deliver a critique of Britain's cultural decay, political cowardice and the institutional failures undermining national trust. From grooming gangs and immigration to women's safety and the collapse of political consensus, Lam calls for a bold new conservatism rooted in honesty, dignity and real public service. We discuss how the Left abandoned fairness, how the Right lost courage, and why Britain needs a cultural revival not just another election cycle.

#097 - Josh Simons - Why Politicians Must Stop Lying
Labour MP Josh Simons joins The Peter McCormack Show for a frank discussion on Britain's broken system and his mission to fix it from within. As founder of the Labour Growth Group, Simons challenges his own party's orthodoxy on tax and the "win-win" rhetoric of the political establishment. He lays out a vision to put working-class people back at the heart of politics , rebuild our broken institutions , and radically rethink education for the age of AI. This is a blueprint for a different kind of Labour party and a look at how a new generation of politician is tackling the UK's decline.

#096 - Samuel Kullmann - Why Switzerland Works and Britain Doesn't
Swiss politician Samuel Kullmann joins The Peter McCormack Show for a deep dive into Switzerland's unique model of governance and why it offers a powerful alternative to Britain's broken system. Kullmann breaks down the power of direct democracy, the importance of decentralised government, and how a nation run by part-time politicians with real-world skin in the game avoids the corruption and incompetence plaguing Westminster. Drawing a sharp contrast, he compares the stable, prosperous, citizen-led approach of Switzerland with the top-down, bureaucratic failure that is driving the UK's decline and wealth exodus. This is a lesson in how real democracy works, a blueprint for political accountability, and a vision of a future where power truly belongs to the people.

#095 - David Starkey - Why Britain is Broken and How We Recover Liberty
Historian David Starkey returns to The Peter McCormack Show for a blistering historical analysis of why modern Britain is broken. Starkey unleashes on the 'neophilia' of the Blair years, the catastrophe of incorporating universal human rights into English law, and the failure of modern conservatism to defend the nation's unique heritage. Drawing a line from the French Revolution to today, he contrasts the organic, bottom-up wisdom of English individualism with the top-down, bureaucratic model of continental Europe. This is a lesson in the ideas that underpin true liberty, the importance of historical continuity, and the urgent need to recover the values that once made Britain exceptional.

#094 - Max Winga - The 5-Year Countdown to AI Extinction
Max Winga, an AI safety advocate from Control AI, joins The Peter McCormack Show for a sobering look at the existential risk posed by artificial intelligence. In this episode, Max reveals how the reckless race for superintelligence, a profound lack of enforceable safety measures, and the apathy of global governance are putting humanity on a potential path to extinction. We explore the chilling capabilities of emerging AI, the concept of a runaway "intelligence explosion," why top AI researchers are sounding the alarm, and what happens when we can no longer control our own creations.

#093 - Kathryn Porter - NUCLEAR is the Answer, NET ZERO is the Problem
Kathryn Porter, energy analyst and founder of Watt-Logic, joins The Peter McCormack Show for a data-driven takedown of the UK's broken energy system. In this episode, Kathryn exposes how Net Zero ideology, civil service incompetence, and corporate rent-seeking have driven up bills, destabilised the grid and betrayed the public. We dive into the real cost of wind, the myth of "cheap renewables," the politics behind energy policy and why nuclear and gas remain the only viable paths forward. This is a forensic, clear-eyed look at the UK's energy crisis and what needs to happen to fix it.

#092 - Alex Phillips - Labour's COLLAPSE, WOKE Economics & Women's SAFETY
Alex Phillips joins The Peter McCormack Show for a raw and wide-ranging discussion on the breakdown of safety, honesty, and leadership in modern Britain. A former Brexit Party MEP and fearless media commentator, Phillips pulls no punches on Labour's collapse, the rise of woke economics, and the growing failure to protect women and working-class communities. We examine political cowardice, mass migration, cultural instability and the daily erosion of public trust. From the broken justice system to collapsing schools and rising crime, Alex makes the case that Britain's elite have abandoned their responsibilities and that only radical honesty can rebuild what's been lost.

#090 - Lord Monckton - The NET ZERO Scam, Reform's Rise & Thatcher's Legacy
Christopher Monckton is a former advisor to Margaret Thatcher, a mathematician, a climate skeptic and a fierce critic of state overreach. In this interview, Lord Monckton tears into Britain's deep state, the climate cult, and the moral collapse of Western politics. We talk about the real cost of Net Zero, the true roots of liberty, and how institutional rot, from the courts to the civil service, has sabotaged the country. Monckton dives into Thatcher's forgotten legacy, the economic philosophy behind small government and why love, not control, must sit at the heart of politics.

#089 - Raja Miah - How Politicians BETRAYED Grooming Gang Victims
Raja Miah is a whistleblower and campaigner who has spent over six years exposing the cover-up of grooming gangs across Britain. In this episode, he lays out the full scope of a national scandal: children raped and trafficked, the perpetrators protected by politicians, police and the media. All in the name of protecting votes. We discuss the damning findings of the Casey review, the cowardice of Keir Starmer, the complicity of Labour MPs, and the role of the BBC in suppressing the truth. Raja explains how new Islamophobia laws threaten free speech and why this isn't over because victims are still coming forward, and the state is still failing them.

#088 - Assisted Dying, Abortion Reform and Medical Ethics w/ Calum Miller & James Bogle
Dr. Calum Miller, NHS doctor and bioethics researcher, joins James Bogle, a barrister and legal expert in end-of-life cases, to discuss two of the most divisive issues in modern politics: assisted suicide and abortion. Drawing on decades of experience in medicine and law, they reveal how Britain's latest legislation undermines the Hippocratic Oath, endangers vulnerable patients, and reflects a deeper erosion of our moral and legal foundations. We explore the NHS pressures behind these changes, disturbing real-world examples from Canada and Europe, and why public debate on life and death is being shut down.

Historian and broadcaster David Starkey delivers an honest critique of modern Britain's decline—from constitutional vandalism to the death of democratic accountability.

Starkey makes the case for restoring tradition, courage, and a politics rooted in freedom.

In this interview, Rupert challenges mainstream narratives, question the failures of Net Zero messaging, and explore why conservatives should take the lead on climate preparedness. From threats to national security and food supply to the economic costs of inaction, Rupert lays out a case for tackling climate change that doesn't rely on ideology—but on common sense.

We explore the root causes of Britain's decline: broken economic thinking, a bloated and overreaching state, uncontrolled immigration, and the collapse of cultural confidence. Nick breaks down the dangers of Labour's tax-and-spend agenda, the betrayal of conservative values, and the urgent need for radical change. He argues that only by restoring true conservative principles, economic resilience, and national self-belief can Britain avoid irreversible decline and rebuild a freer, stronger society.

We explore how money printing distorts markets, fuels inequality, and erodes personal freedom. Joe breaks down the hidden consequences of fiat currency—rising housing costs, corporate capture of vital industries, and the silent theft of wealth through inflation. He argues that only by separating money from state control—and embracing a decentralised alternative—can we restore economic sanity and create a freer, fairer world. Joe's excellent video, "What's the Problem?", is available to watch here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtFOxNbmD38

In this interview, Catherine explains why Britain is stuck in economic decline, how Net Zero is strangling industry, and why Labour's growth promises are disconnected from reality. We discuss the damage caused by stamp duty, VAT, and employment law, the failure of political leadership across parties, and why the UK is driving away the very businesses it needs to survive. Catherine argues that only radical reform—cutting bad regulation, slashing energy costs, and restoring economic sanity—can save Britain from permanent decline.

In this interview, John lays out why Britain has stopped growing, how the tax burden has hit a post-war high, and why throwing more money at failing systems is making things worse. We explore the rising cost of living, the impact of over-regulation on small businesses, and how poorly designed taxes like inheritance tax and stamp duty are crippling opportunity and ambition. John argues that political reform, economic discipline, and a simpler tax code are the only way to reverse the UK's stagnation and unlock real growth for working people.

In this interview, Matthew breaks down why Europe can no longer rely on the United States, the dangers of monetary expansion, and how authoritarianism is rising across the West. We discuss the Ukraine war, the myth of neutrality in global politics, and how inflation and asset bubbles have quietly hollowed out the middle class. Matthew explains why Bitcoin may be the only true escape hatch, how power is shifting from West to East, and what history teaches us about debt, sovereignty, and economic collapse.

He gained national attention after being investigated by police for a tweet and went on to challenge and defeat. In this interview, Harry breaks down how UK police forces have become ideological enforcers, recording "non-crime hate incidents" and knocking on doors to "check people's thinking." We explore how woke ideology has captured British institutions, why free speech is under attack from all sides, and how the criminal justice system has been weaponised against ordinary people.

#063 - Steven Barrett - Two-Tier Justice and the Collapse of British Law

We discuss the rise of a two-tier justice system, the explosion of "law inflation," and how vague, unreadable rules are being used to censor speech, shield the powerful, and trap ordinary people. Steven explains why British civil justice is no longer accessible to most citizens, how legal bureaucracy has replaced common sense, and why the UK's constitutional structure is now in crisis.

#062 - Raja Miah - The Rape Gangs Cover Up by Police, Politicians & the Media
Raja Miah is a former government advisor, political campaigner, and whistleblower who exposed one of the UK's most disturbing and underreported scandals—the systematic gang rape of children across multiple towns, and the political cover-up that protected the perpetrators. In this interview, Raja lays out in forensic detail how politicians, police, and civil servants collaborated to bury the truth, protect votes, and maintain power at the expense of vulnerable children. We discuss the media's complicity, the role of postal vote fraud, the deliberate use of racial and religious fear to silence critics, and why the grooming gangs remain active today.
