The UK is experiencing a once-in-a-century political realigment, overwhelmingly because the British people feel betrayed after decades of of mass-migration. The New Culture Forum has released a searing anthology of essays on the immigration crisis in the UK, and how it can be reversed. Will discusses the new publication with historian, broadcaster, and Senior Fellow at the New Culture Forum, Rafe Heydel-Mankoo. Follow Will Kingston and Fire at Will on social media here.

According to former leader of the Conservative Party, Sir Iain Duncan Smith, China's rise mirrors the rise of Nazi Germany in the 1930s. He is one of the few MPs willing to confront the China threat. Note this episode was cut short as Sir Iain had to attend to Parliamentary business. He will be back on the show! Follow Will Kingston and Fire at Will on social media here.

The UK is in stasis, and much of that can be attributed to the tyranny of the lawyers. Every attempt at reform is stymied by a complicated web of laws, not to mention that nebulous demi-religon, 'international law'. Will is joined by political commentator and barrister Steven Barrett to discuss how the UK became a country beholden to pointless legislation, and how it can be wound back.

The old rules of UK politics no longer apply. A two-and-a-half party system has become a five party system, and no one is quite sure what comes next. The only certainty is we are facing an unprecedented and tumultous era, and nothing (including revolution) is off the table. To discuss this 'great realignment', Will is joined by political commentator and podcast host for the New Culture Forum, Emma Trimble.  Follow Will Kingston and Fire at Will on social media here.

If there is any glimmer of hope in the UK (and it is a faint one), it is that a new government in 2029 may just be able to reverse the catastrophic economic, demographic and cultural trends that the country is enduring. In order to do so, they'll have to navigate the treacherous world of the Westminster Civil Service. No one understands that world better than the former Former Chief of Staff to the Chancellor of the Exchequer and former Chief of Staff to the Chairman of the Conservative Party, James Price.

Many Australians don't appreciate how extraordinary the Australian story is. A penal colony, that became a democracy, that became arguably the greatest Western liberal democracy in the world. On the contrary, the prevailing sentiment is a black armband view of the past. Former Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott has sought to change that with his new book, 'Australia: A History'.  Will and Tony discuss themes that run through the Australian story, and reflect on whether the country is still living up to the ideals upon which it was built.

The UK conservative political class have not led the public discourse. Instead, they have been dragged, sometimes kicking and screaming, to sensible policies on issues such as immigration by independent media and prominent social media figures. In other words, 'the online right'. There are few more influential voices on the online right than political commentator Connor Tomlinson.  Will and Connor freewheel on (among other things) how the public discourse has changed in the post-MSM age, immigration, the economy, the differences between Australian and British politics, and whether Reform are really capable of solving the country's problems.

Right-wing political parties are facing identity crises across the Anglosphere. Reform is pushing the Conservatives to the brink of extinction, and Trump has remade the Republicans. However, the challenge may be most acute for the Australian Liberal Party, who are trying to work out what whey should stand for after a crushing election defeat earlier in the year. To discuss the future of the Liberal Party, and Australia, Will is joined by the Federal MP for Canning, Andrew Hastie.  Follow Will Kingston and Fire at Will on social media here.

A surprising shift is taking place in the gender and sexual identities of young people. Since 2023 both trans and queer identification have dropped sharply within Generation Z. A medical miracle, or proof that the trans movement was a social contagion all along? To discuss this shift, along with the broader movements in the culture wars, Will is joined by Professor of Politics at the University of Buckingham, and the Director for The Centre for Heterodox Social Science, Eric Kaufmann.

Most historical revolutions are sudden and violent. Since 1997, the UK has experienced a 'slow-burn revolution', which has completely changed the country economically, demographically, culturally and administratively. Historian David Starkey joins Will to explain how it happened, and to consider whether the disastrous consequences of the Blairite revolution can be reversed.

The war in Gaza has revealed some ugly realities of life in modern Britain: antisemitism, the failures of multiculturalism, and sectarian violence to name but a few. Whilst the war may (hopefully) be coming to an end, the problems at home remain. Has the multicultural melting pot melted? Will is joined by author of the new book, ‘The Melted Pot: Diversity, Antisemitism, and the Limits of Tolerance’, Harry Saul Markham. Follow Will Kingston and Fire at Will on social media here.

The UK and US have long cherished a ‘special relationship’. However, the countries appear to be diverging down different paths; economically, culturally, and spiritually. There are more than a few Brits who look across the pond with envy as the US ascends, and the UK continues to be stuck in a deep malaise.  How do the countries compare today, and what does the American political establishment really think about the United Kingdom in 2025? Will is joined by the host of the The Late Show Live on GB News, broadcast from Washington DC, Ben Leo. Follow Will Kingston and Fire at Will on social media here. Read The Spectator Australia here.

Charlie Kirk's assassination has sparked a global conversation. We have been forced to grapple with issues of free speech, political violence, the changing faces of the right and the left, faith, and the future of western civilisation itself. Will discussed all of these pressing topics with the host of The Rubin Report, Dave Rubin. Following his sold-out run alongside tour with Jordan Peterson, Dave will be returning to Australia this October for three exclusive, can’t-miss shows in Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane. Tickets are available here.  Melbourne – October 18 Sydney – October 21 Brisbane – October 27Follow Will Kingston and Fire at Will on social media here. Read The Spectator Australia here.

Heresy is any belief or theory that is strongly at variance with established beliefs or customs. It has never been more important to encourage heretical conversations, and embrace heretical thinkers.  There are few more important heretical thinkers in UK independent media than the host of the Heretics podcast, Andrew Gold. Will and Andrew discuss the rise in political violence across the West, Islam, mass-migration, Liz Truss revisionism, and the likelihood of civil war in the UK.
