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.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with Lady Frederick Windsor, Sophie Winkleman, to discuss the dark side of smartphones, social media, and educational technology.

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.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sat down with Hillel Neuer, Executive Director of UN Watch, to expose the corruption and hypocrisy within the United Nations and how it has become one of the world’s biggest enablers of antisemitism and terror.

From the Soviet Union’s 1975 campaign declaring “Zionism is racism” to today’s Hamas apologists like Francesca Albanese, Neuer reveals how the UN was captured by authoritarian regimes and weaponised against Israel. He details how organisations like UNRWA have been infiltrated by Hamas operatives, turning schools and aid programmes into fronts for jihad — all funded by Western taxpayers.

Neuer explains why the so-called “rules-based international order” never truly existed, how the Human Rights Council became a haven for dictatorships, and why Britain and Europe continue to bankroll organisations that indoctrinate children to hate.

A shocking and essential conversation on the UN’s betrayal of its founding principles, the persistence of antisemitism in international institutions, and the urgent need for moral courage and reform in the West.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with author and host of Maiden Mother Matriarch podcast, Louise Perry. We delve into confronting some of the most pressing cultural and political divides in the West today, particularly in Britain.

We unpack the rise of gender polarisation, exploring why young women are shifting sharply leftwards while young men drift right. Louise explains how class, marriage, and maternal instincts shape political identity, and why progressive ideologies around immigration, transgenderism, and abortion have often harmed the very women they claim to protect.

From the Pakistani grooming gangs scandal and elites’ betrayal of Britain, Louise exposes uncomfortable truths about class contempt, cultural fear, and why working-class women are bearing the brunt of progressive experiments.

We also discuss the legacy of the post-war consensus, fears of fascism, and how politics has taken on a new quasi-religious dimension for younger generations.

This fearless conversation explores women, class, progressivism, immigration, and the dangerous myths shaping our future.
