In the Latest Weekly Sceptic, Nick Dixon and Toby Young Talk About the Olympic Opening Ceremony, Big Tech’s Memory-Holing of the Trump Assassination Attempt and Suella’s Withdrawal
Welcome to the Weekly Sceptic episode 98
This week Nick and Toby talk about:
- The Olympic opening ceremony and why the world’s biggest religion was mocked, in spite of artistic director Thomas Jolly wanting to make it ‘inclusive’.
- Why Suella Braverman isn’t standing in the Conservative leadership election and whether Kemi is the Tories’ best hope (Toby thinks so).
- The violent incident at Manchester Airport last week and whether the police officer at the centre of it was justified in his use of force.
- Tommy Robinson’s recent difficulties and the difficulty in deciding whether he‘s a free speech hero or a free speech grifter.
- And premium content on www.basedmedia.org, which includes:
- The attempt by Big Tech and the MSM to memory-hole the assassination attempt on Trump and whether their mendacious tactics are likely to get Kamala Harris elected.
- Kamala’s attack on J.D. Vance for being ‘wierd’ and J.D.’s response.
- Everyone’s favourite section Peak Woke, in which Nick is unimpressed by a South African woman’s request for asylum on the grounds that she wants to continue her polygamous marriage in England and Toby regrets the RAF deciding to drop the name ‘Crusader’ from Squadron 14.
- And in the Based Department, it’s a toss up between Donald Trump and J.D Vance.

What is the point of Suella running for leader? There is no point. The conservatives don’t want to be conservative anymore. They just want to be like all the other supermarkets selling all the same stuff. ——Net Zero, Diversity, Mass Immigration, Gender Crap, Wokery, etc etc. Suella isn’t selling any of that and we don’t want to buy any of it.
I reckon she will join Reform, especially if the Tories elect a “centrist” (left wing) leader
