In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with moral philosopher and theologian Lord Nigel Biggar for a rigorous conversation on slavery, reparations, British history, and the moral limits of historical guilt.

We examine growing demands for reparations from Britain, including calls from CARICOM, the African Union, and the Church of England, and ask whether modern Britons can justly be held responsible for crimes committed centuries ago. Biggar explains why slavery was a universal historical practice, why Britain was among the first nations to abolish it, and how the anti slavery movement became one of the first mass human rights campaigns in history.

The discussion explores the Atlantic slave trade, African and Arab slavery, Britain’s role in abolition, the West Africa Squadron, and the immense financial and human cost Britain paid to suppress slavery worldwide. We also debate whether present day inequalities can be causally traced to historic slavery, and whether reparations clarify or distort moral responsibility.

We turn to faith, history, and national memory, examining how Britain should teach slavery, abolition, and empire, and whether movements like reparations and Black History Month promote reconciliation or deepen division.

A serious and searching conversation about history, justice, responsibility, and how nations should reckon with the past without surrendering to permanent guilt.

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.
