Since the start of 2025 the presence of Pakistani 'grooming gangs' operating across the United Kingdom has dominated online discourse and parliamentary debate. We discuss the nature of these 'gangs', provide a cultural analysis of why they existed, and consider the scale of the political cover-up by the Labour Party, police, and local authorities. Plus, the key divide in feminism on the issue, the Left’s sentiment that they own feminism because their project is a claim to liberating all humanity, Jimmy Savile, islamophobia as conceptually tied to imperialism or a useless term, and the Left’s delusion that ethnic minorities are universally aligned with them.

Dr. Ally Louks, a scholar at Cambridge University, created a frenzy online after posing for a selfie with her PhD thesis entitled 'Olfactory Ethics: The Politics of Smell in Modern and Contemporary Prose’. Her tweet went viral, with over 120 million views to date. We discuss the backlash and why we think her English Literature PhD caused such a furore. Including... anti-intellectualism, envy, knowledge as something possession of a particular sex, the crisis in the American academy, and the history of conservatives in literature. Plus, what dealing with academic charlatans is like, what PhDs actually are, and why men sometimes hate something a woman does precisely because it’s excellent.

We respond to Labour MP Pat McFadden's suggestion that anyone wanting to be euthanised should pay for it themselves. We talk package deals, budget deaths, and spectacular deluxe send offs involving planes and assassination-style takedowns. We wonder how the bureaucracy around death will work? What will the safeguards be? Can there be safeguards around death?

Jen’s outlines her dark theory about why Kim Leadbeater is so interested in promoting death and Hannah explains euthanasia as a phenomenological understanding of Satan in cultural form. Plus, vapid progressivism, intersectional car crashes, consequences for the ‘euthanasia defence’, the unintelligibility of MPs to the general public and the unintelligibility of the general public to MPs, middle-class people’s denial around the state, and liberalisms obsession with the individual and the individual as the only point of analysis for the liberal.
