The Sceptic | Episode 71: David Shipley on How Labour Just Admitted That Multiculturalism is Dead. Plus: Killer Carbon Pipelines

In Episode 71 of the Sceptic, host Laurie Wastell and journalist David Shipley discuss the Labour Government’s bizarre, draconian and at times comical new social cohesion strategy, “Protecting What Matters” – and the grim truth it reveals about multicultural Britain.

And for our premium subscribers, Laurie speaks to Chris Morrison, the Daily Sceptic’s Environment Editor, on the Government’s mad plans to build carbon capture pipelines that could end up suffocating us in our beds.

A couple of notes about the proposed carbon dioxide transport etc.

Enhanced levels of it are often used deliberately in greenhouses to increase the production of crops being grown, often being done by using exhaust gas from gas fired air heating equipment.

When it comes to the snag of leakage, does anyone know if they would use added compounds to allow them to be detected, as they do for methane? In those systems they use methanethiol (mercaptan). Unless you never had a gas leak, you will be familiar with that. Of course, if they did that, it would be a useless product. Who would want to use it in a greenhouse, e.g.?

It seems to me that the whole concept of Net Zero is essential flawed. Maybe it will become a historic item eventually, maybe a few generations on; who knows.

There is NO way to build all that is needed for the renewable energy nonsense other than by using fossil fuels. China is building solar panels and turbines like crazy. All made with fossil fuels.

Check out Richard Lyon Substack, he’s ace on just how insane it is…

For goodness sake Laurie, did you really just say that CO2 was 20% of the atmosphere? That’s the approx proportion of Oxygen (~21%).

I’m glad Chris corrected you (0.04%), but if you want to argue against this please make sure you understand the basics.

It is nonsense that multiculturalism is dead. The problem is one particular culture that is being exploited by the extreme Far Left to destabilise the country and that culture exploiting the extreme Far Left to also destabilise the country for their own agendas.

The issue is dealt with very ably in this article:

Anglophobia: Radical Islamism, Far-Left Subversion, and the failed legacy of EU Migration policy

An extract:

“Politicians have a non-negotiable duty to prioritise the defence of Britain’s longstanding character and way of life. This is not a rejection of all diversity. Britain has successfully absorbed many waves of immigrants over centuries — from earlier European groups to those from Africa, the Caribbean, Ireland, Jewish communities, and others — who integrated fully, enriched the nation, and became part of its story. Even the Royal Family reflects diverse roots. Britain has long been a blend of influences stretching back thousands of years.

The core problem is not skin colour, nor immigration in general, nor every Muslim individual or community. It is a specific ideology — radical Islamism — that explicitly rejects integration and assimilation and instead seeks to impose its own supremacist framework, often backed by coercion, intimidation, or violence. While not every adherent supports extremism, a significant portion remains silent, complicit, or passively enabling when violent actors emerge, and the broader agenda is to override British customs, laws, and norms, with threats of force lurking in the background.”
