Nick Dixon and Toby Young Talk About Rishi’s Poor Start to the Election Campaign, Starmer’s Attempt to Bore His Way to Victory and Farage’s Muslim Remarks
Welcome to the Weekly Sceptic episode 89
This week, in a General Election special, Nick and Toby talk about:
- Why Rishi Sunak called a summer election, surprising everyone, including his Cabinet
- Whether a ‘Presidential’ election, with the focus on the Prime Minister rather than the Conservative Party’s record in government, is Rishi’s best hope of limiting the damage
- Why the Conservatives have rejected a ‘Devil Eyes’ election strategy and decided to emphasise Keir Starmer’s weak leadership instead
- Plus everyone’s favourite section, Peak Woke, and premium content on Based, which this week includes:
- Nigel Farage’s controversial exchange with Trevor Phillips about British Muslims and the BBC describing his Dover speech as ‘inflammatory’
- The relaunch of Loaded and whether it’s actually a bit feminist
- And the 70 year-old in a Suffolk village who chased some young hooligans down the street after they damaged her back gate (no pun intended)

Farage has more common sense in his little finger than all of the Labservativegreen excuses for politicians put together!
Reform is the only tangible change available, even it its only leading a viable opposition of some sort
Watching the unpleasant exchange between Nigel and the Fulani Muslim Trevor Phillips made me realise that it’s pointless for Patriots to debate with Traitors. As English Patriot Nick Griffin found during that infamous Question Time “debate”, in which he was shouted down by a raging rent-a-mob, gnashing their teeth and barely restrained from physically assaulting him on live television.
Then there are the ever-shrill, domineering, hostile feminist news presenters continually interrupting, with voices like breaking glass, to prevent Patriots from finishing any sentence at all. The audience can learn nothing from these interviews and debates.
Since the Patriot’s crucial arguments are always engulfed by the Slimy Amoeba of Communism which allows no real debate, I would much rather hear two Patriots discussing things in an interview.
Oh no, not again! News said Nigel is again talking about doing a deal with the Tories, and that they owe him.
In other words, dragging the Reform Party back into the farcical Tory Party, like a kind of sacrificial scapegoat, in order to get his knighthood.
Poor Richard Tice must be tearing his hair out in despair at Nigel’s antics.
I much preferred the weekly sceptic when it included items from Will Jones and Chris Morrison.
I must say it’s also a bit much to be asked to contribute to the Weekly Sceptic as well as being a paid subscriber to the Daily Sceptic.
The DS is Toby’s baby, the WS is Nick’s baby – at least, that’s how I understand it. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to participate in an exchange of some sort. If not money then what?
I agree re the content with Will Jones, it’s lacking something with him gone.
Driftwood by Travis feels like the perfect song for Starmer. It’s dull, its popularity can only be due to a lack of inspiring alternatives, and it’s all about being directionless, hollow and of no use.
“Sunak’s poor start to the election campaign”
I don’t care if he walks on bloody water, why would anyone vote for the fake conservatives? Lockdown Chancellor.
There was me thinking I was listening to two guys chew the fat, but what I was listening to, however, was a party political broadcast for the uni-party. The message of the broadcast? You MUST vote. Can you see it yet?
They are absolutely right. Why spoil your vote or refuse to vote when that is just lamely handing victory to Starmer the Kneeler?
You don’t have to agree with every policy a political party has in order to vote for them. And when you read the Reform Party policies, what they are offering is a refreshing change from the Uniparty.
Reform is not perfect, but no one is, and voting for them is better than just giving up and handing your vote to The Kneeler.
Your vote supports a system that can only exist because of your vote. You only have the illusion of choice, and your vote serves a single purpose – to legitimise a system who’s sole purpose is to delegimise you.
The Swiss have used voting in referendums to great effect in order to enforce the democratic will of the Swiss people.
What is your suggested alternative?
