  • Bishops in the Bubble
    Jan 24 2025

    Church of England revs with a difference Tom Pelham, Daniel French, and Jamie Franklin sit down to talk about the big stories in church and state. This time involving many stories of bishops and church leaders who are committed to the progressive socialist ideologies that characterise left-wing politics. Stories involve:

    • Woke Episcopal Bishop Mariann Budd attacks Trump at inauguration service.
    • "Faith leaders" including the Bishop of Norwich say back the Climate and Nature Bill (surprise, surprise!)
    • Leader of Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches (FIEC) goes full progressive over Islamic rape gangs.

    All that and much much more as ever!

  • The Neo-Marxists are Coming for the Kids! with David Kurten
    Jan 16 2025

    Church of England vicar Jamie Franklin sits down with Heritage Party founder and leader David Kurten who speaks about why he is so concerned about the Labour Government's Schools and Wellbeing Bill which will fundamentally change the nature of the relationship between children and the state. Also discussed:
    - The Climate and Nature Bill which would amount to a land grab of 30% of the countryside in the name of environmentalism and climate activism.
    - Agenda 2030 and the globalists' plan to destroy agriculture, cultivate lab-based meat, and end private transport.
    - Why only a specifically Christian political movement can change any of this.
    - And more besides.
