Connor Tomlinson joins John for a compelling examination of Britain's fractured politics and its loss of cultural self-belief. Tomlinson offers a frank account of how mass immigration and rising Islamist separatism are reshaping the social fabric of Britain. Difficult but necessary questions are examined concerning integration, national cohesion, and whether the country still has the confidence to uphold its own cultural inheritance. Despite the challenges, Tomlinson insists that renewal is still possible if Britain can rediscover the confidence to enforce its laws, protect its institutions, and expect newcomers to adopt its cultural values. This conversation is a call to restore order, confidence, and a shared sense of direction for Britain's future.Connor Tomlinson is a British political commentator, writer, and policy researcher known for his work on immigration, identity, environmental policy, and the cultural challenges facing the UK. A regular contributor to GB News, TalkTV, The Lotus Eaters, and a writer for Courage Media.

Allen covers positive developments like EDF’s 261 MW Serra das Almas wind farm in Brazil, Ørsted’s offshore progress in the US, and Shell’s hydrogen deal in Germany. Then the troubling stories: a Nordex technical manager caught mining cryptocurrency inside turbines, and the discovery of asbestos in Goldwind turbine brake pads across multiple Australian wind farms.

Others… well… you’ll see. Let’s start with the good news. In Brazil… EDF power solutions just powered up the Serra das Almas wind farm. Two hundred sixty-one megawatts. Fifty-eight Danish Vestas turbines spinning in Bahia state. Six hundred thousand homes… now running on wind. Up in the United States… Ørsted is making waves with two offshore wind projects. Revolution Wind and Sunrise Wind. Cable installation is underway. Offshore substations are being commissioned. By next year… more than sixteen hundred megawatts will be flowing into Connecticut… Rhode Island… and New York. Over in Germany… Shell is turning wind into hydrogen. They’ve signed a five-year power deal with Nordsee One. Starting in two thousand twenty-seven… offshore wind will feed a one hundred megawatt electrolyzer. Clean electricity making clean fuel. To power everything from trucks to chemical plants. But now… the other stories. In the Netherlands… a technical manager at Nordex wind farms thought he’d found the perfect side hustle. He had the keys. He had the access. He had giant wind turbines spinning out free electricity twenty-four hours a day. And he had a plan. Between August and November of two thousand twenty-two… the man installed three cryptocurrency mining rigs at the Gieterveen wind farm. He plugged them straight into a Nordex router. Inside a substation. Then he drove to Waardpolder. Another wind farm. He climbed inside the turbines. And he hid two Helium network nodes. Connected them to Nordex’s internal network. Month after month… while the turbines spun… his crypto wallet grew. Nobody noticed. Why would they? He was the technical manager. He belonged there. But then… Nordex got hit with something much worse. A ransomware attack. The Conti cybercrime crew. The company was scrambling. Investigating their networks. Looking for breaches. That’s when they found his mining rigs. The courts heard the case earlier this month. The prosecutor was not amused. This wasn’t just theft. This was a man who’d been trusted with critical infrastructure. Giant turbines. Automated systems. Industrial networks. The prosecutor wanted two hundred forty hours of community service. But the judges saw something else. A first-time offender. A man suffering from depression and burnout. Someone who admitted everything. They cut the sentence in half. One hundred twenty hours. Plus four thousand one hundred fifty-five euros in damages. About forty-four hundred dollars. And if he doesn’t pay? Fifty-one days in custody. If he doesn’t complete his community service? Sixty days in jail. The court made one thing crystal clear. He’d shown no concern for the potential disruption to the turbines. No concern for the company’s trust. No concern… that he was running a side business… inside critical infrastructure. But here’s the story that’s really stopped the industry cold. In Tasmania… at the Cattle Hill wind farm… inspectors made a disturbing discovery. Asbestos. In the brake pads. Inside the turbine tower lifts. Now… Tasmania is just the beginning. The turbines were built by Goldwind… And Goldwind supplies turbines to wind farms all across Australia. New South Wales. Victoria. Queensland. WorkSafe Victoria and SafeWork NSW confirmed Friday… asbestos has been found at multiple wind farm sites. White Rock. Gullen Range. Biala. Clarke Creek. Moorabool. Stockyard Hill. The brake pads were imported into Australia. Importing asbestos has been illegal there… since two thousand three. Beijing Energy International says the risk is extremely low. Access to affected turbines is restricted. They’re working with regulators. Testing is underway. But here’s what everyone’s thinking… Last week… asbestos was found in colored sand products from China. Schools shut down. Childcare centers closed. In the Australian Capital Territory. Queensland. South Australia. Now it’s wind turbines. So the wind industry had quite a week. Clean power spinning up in Brazil. Offshore cables going down in America. Hydrogen flowing in Germany. Cryptocurrency crimes in the Netherlands. And asbestos… hiding inside turbines… from China. And that's the wind industry news for the 24th of November 2025. Join us tomorrow for the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast.
IWP Ep95 The Viticultural Pavilion at the 1894 Midwinter Fair. Historical Episode Today we're going to talk about the Viticultural Palace at the 1894 Midwinter Fair held in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. Last year I did a series of episodes on the California Wine Association, and this episode could be the prequel to that series. My thesis here is that the fair was the last time in Pre Prohibition wine that everyone worked together peacefully. For the first decades of the California Wine Industry many were focussed on just making it work. Importing, recognizing and categorizing grapes, planting vineyards, learning how to make wine and learning how to sell that wine. Information was disseminated and the different groups worked together, more or less at least. There will always be some personality clashes but even then, everyone was pulling in the same direction. The Midwinter Fair would be the last hurrah though. Follow the podcast at www.instagram.com/indiewinepodcast or email indiewinepodcast@gmail.com with questions, comments or feedback.

US president Donald Trump has announced that Hungary will not have to face sanctions for importing Russian oil, following a White House meeting with Hungary's right-wing prime minister Viktor Orban.It comes after the US effectively blacklisted two of Russia's largest oil companies last month, threatening sanctions on those who buy from them.Also in the programme: 10 years after the Paris climate change conference agreed to limit global warming, we'll analyse what has been achieved by the agreement; we'll look at how Tunisian opposition leaders are supporting each other by going on hunger strike; and we'll hear from the woman who took up golf in her 50s and just hit three holes in one in a month.[Photo shows U.S. President Donald Trump hosts a bilateral lunch with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban and Vice President JD Vance, at the White House in Washington DC on 7 November 2025.

We speak to Latvia's Foreign Minister Baiba Braže about the EU's drone readiness, Russia sanctions, hybrid warfare and the issue of migrant pushbacks.
An online reaction to our series in the Winnipeg Sun on homeless encampment mayhem and failed government policies has raised an important question for Episode 54- are governments actually bringing homeless people into Winnipeg?Part 1- A recap of recent Sun columns and podcasts, and a reflection on the 15 years since our last broadcast on 92.9 KICK-FM.Part 2- A source with access to the Homeless Individuals and Families Information System (HIFIS) says that asylum/refugee claimants coming to Canada are "entitled to not only whatever benefits they may receive being refugees, but then all the benefits entitled to homeless as well." "Between October 2024 and April of this year we doubled our active case files from 5.5k to 11k... these people are entered and processed mostly by End Homelessness Winnipeg themselves or agencies that support new comers."Episode 54 will make you wonder- why haven't we heard from corporate broadcasters funded by the Liberal government about how homeless aboriginal and other Canadians are left waiting for assistance on riverbanks, while foreign nationals allowed into our country by the Liberal government cut in line ahead of them? We certainly never heard about it from the recently-departed homelessness czar of the NDP, Tessa Blaikie Whitecloud.*******On November 14th Marty Gold is going to compete in the biggest wrestling match in Canada - the CWE 50 Man Rumble To Remember!Presented by Canadian Wrestling's Elite, the event at the Ukrainian Labour Temple offers a great reward to the last man standing- a CWE Championship match at the February supercard.A limited number of discounted tickets are available for listeners of the podcast and for readers of our columns in the Sun – email martygoldlive@gmail.com for more details and see Marty in action!
Cotton, Cameos, and Cashmere: The Accessories of Revolutionary Style. The Graces made cotton, previously worn by lower classes, the most fashionable and revolutionary fabric, often importing high-quality white muslin from India. Painters like David were fascinated by how the thin fabric revealed women's bodies, making the women appear artful and allowing them to move freely. When big skirts disappeared, the need to carry belongings led to the invention of the handbag as we know it, which instantly became the "it accessory." Other vital accessories included flat laced shoes and cashmere shawls. The long, rectangular cashmere shawls, first sent by Napoleon from Cairo to Josephine, were draped seductively around the slim dresses, becoming highly desirable for decades. Josephine (Rose) also invented the tiara by adapting Italian cameos to headbands. Juliet's rigorous all-white look became a powerful rallying symbol for the purity of revolutionary principles. 1805 Josephine

Today, it still is the best option compared to the other rising manufacturing companies like Vietnam, India, and Thailand. Compared to America, manufacturing in China is still the best option even factoring in the transit costs and 3PL costs. However, in the far future, China might not be the country to manufacture from.

Sådan her kan utilfredshed altså også se ud: Som tusinder og atter tusinder af små levende prikker, der – filmet fra luften af en drone – langsomt bevæger sig gennem Londons gader. 150.000 mennesker. Klemt tæt sammen og på vej gennem byen. Som en tyktflydende væske med britiske og engelske flag i hænderne. ”Send them home”, bliver der råbt. “Protect our kids” og “We want our country back”. Mens dronen flyver hen over byens tage, ser man menneskemængden fylde en lang gade fra husmur til husmur. Ligesom den næste gade. Og den næste igen; nogle steder breder den sig ud i de tilstødende gader, og hvor der er pladser, svulmer den op og fylder pludselig det hele. Det er meget utilfredshed samlet på ét sted. Men hvad demonstrerer de egentlig imod? Er det indvandringen? Islam? Eller tømmermændene oven på Brexit? Det spørger vi Politikens Europa-korrespondent Martin Bjørck om i dagens 'Du lytter til Politiken'.

I'm sure you've seen the news...At the outset, the recent announcement of the "America by Design" initiative and the new "National Design Studio" is quite exciting. It's a huge spotlight on our field.But it also feels a bit strange, doesn't it? Because it wasn't so long ago that the US government had 18F, an entire organization dedicated to improving the user experience of its services. And then, in early 2025, it was deemed "non-essential" and unceremoniously "deleted".One of the people right in the middle of it all was our guest, Ron Bronson. As the Head of Design at 18F, he was at the forefront of applying service design within the complexities of government. So, you can imagine that when Ron sat down with me for the conversation, it wasn't just a walk in the park. We dove into some juicy questions that challenge the very core of our practice. Is service design too opaque and stuck in its own craft? What if we reframed our work as a form of “design as repair”? Why might AI actually be the biggest blessing for service design yet? I can assure you, this is a conversation that will get you out of your comfort zone in the best way possible. So, if you're ready to be challenged with some fresh perspectives, make sure you tune in to this one.Even though we tackle some pretty huge topics in the episode, Ron brings it all back to a simple, powerful idea right at the end of the conversation. Can you take a guess? (Hint: it's about zooming in, not out ).Enjoy the episode and keep making a positive impact!Be well,~ Marc--- [ 1.

Here's his show from last week… No, It's Not 'America First' to Import 600,000 SPIES | 8/26/25 (7:09-7:56, 14:14-29:50) https://www.podbean.com/ea/dir-8bbvi-2732e521 First, I love the Steve Deace Show for many reasons, but the ignorant takes (in the literal, not name-calling, sense) on China is not one of them: “Half a million Chinese spies getting into top universities.” “Importing 600,000 Chinese Communists. . . to preserve (financially) [our already communist and subsidized] universities?” “Less than 1,000 (US students in China)*, because apparently they care more about their institutions and culture than we do.” “How ‘bout: we don't take any Chicoms, and we make [American universities] take and train [our] students instead, and tell them they are going to lose all taxpayer funding and subsidies if they don't.” “[Make American universities great again], instead of depots for Chinese Communists.” *False: http://en.moe.gov.cn/news/press_releases/201904/t20190418_378586.html Now, before I explain more, it's worth noting in agreement that opening the door to so many foreign students is probably bad for America, just not for some of the more common reasons given (ie, Chinese students are all spies). So, are Chinese students spies? Listen to the podcast for my answers... One final quote from Steve Deace: “I cannot imagine there is a single listener or viewer to this program anywhere in America who thinks if we follow through on this, that it would be a net positive for the country. . . 0.0.” In response, here was my (unsuccessful) submission via Twitter/X to the show's Buy, Sell, or Hold segment the following day: “In the long run, the lesser number of Chinese Christian students who study in the US (some in places like NSA in Moscow, ID), will have a greater impact than the larger number of "normie" Chinese students who are blackmailed into being pro-CCP hacks.” What say you?

Here's his show from last week… No, It's Not 'America First' to Import 600,000 SPIES | 8/26/25 (7:09-7:56, 14:14-29:50) https://www.podbean.com/ea/dir-8bbvi-2732e521 First, I love the Steve Deace Show for many reasons, but the ignorant takes (in the literal, not name-calling, sense) on China is not one of them: “Half a million Chinese spies getting into top universities.” “Importing 600,000 Chinese Communists. . . to preserve (financially) [our already communist and subsidized] universities?” “Less than 1,000 (US students in China)*, because apparently they care more about their institutions and culture than we do.” “How ‘bout: we don't take any Chicoms, and we make [American universities] take and train [our] students instead, and tell them they are going to lose all taxpayer funding and subsidies if they don't.” “[Make American universities great again], instead of depots for Chinese Communists.” *False: http://en.moe.gov.cn/news/press_releases/201904/t20190418_378586.html Now, before I explain more, it's worth noting in agreement that opening the door to so many foreign students is probably bad for America, just not for some of the more common reasons given (ie, Chinese students are all spies). So, are Chinese students spies? Listen to the podcast for my answers... One final quote from Steve Deace: “I cannot imagine there is a single listener or viewer to this program anywhere in America who thinks if we follow through on this, that it would be a net positive for the country. . . 0.0.” In response, here was my (unsuccessful) submission via Twitter/X to the show's Buy, Sell, or Hold segment the following day: “In the long run, the lesser number of Chinese Christian students who study in the US (some in places like NSA in Moscow, ID), will have a greater impact than the larger number of "normie" Chinese students who are blackmailed into being pro-CCP hacks.” What say you?

Episode 4708: Trump Heads To Alaska For Putin Summit; Importing The Destruction Of America's Graduates
We are back folks... we had a break and we address that first up in the show. That leads us to the crux of the episode. Importing a boat from another country to Australia can be a daunting task. The topic alone brings up a stack of opinions from those that have either never done it or have their own reason for doing it a certain way. On this episode we talk about doing it yourself and we also quote the actual costs of doing it as recently as this year. We also talk about trolling motors and the advantages of dealing with a pro like Troy from Minn Repairs This show is presented by Power Pole, Beast Brushes, Kettafly, Nervous Water and Flats Craft

As conservatives, we champion secure borders, the rule of law, and an America First agenda that prioritizes our citizens. But putting America first isn’t just about policy, it’s also about investment and capital. This may surprise you, but foreign investment can help us secure our nation. The right type of foreign investment. The EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program is working and working very well. It’s a system that channels foreign wealth into U.S. businesses: creating jobs and boosting our economy without costing taxpayers anything. Like most programs in D.C. the program is now the center of controversy. Fake news, misinformation, and sensationalistic rhetoric is now being spread about the EB-5 visas. It may come as no surprise, but do NOT believe what you hear. The system is a win for Americans. We get wealthy, freedom-loving foreigners who are willing to invest in American businesses in return for the ability to come and live here. Which means instead of importing poverty to America, like the previous administration, we import entrepreneurs who will help America grow and prosper. Congress established the EB-5 visa program in 1990. It’s designed as a fast track to permanent residency for foreigners who invest significant capital in U.S. businesses. Those businesses must create at least 10 full-time jobs for American workers. The EB-5 program fuels the growth of small business in America. And small business is at the heart of our economy. I have seen firsthand, EB-5 investment in poor rural areas in America as well as inner city areas that are both plagued with unemployment. The investors often put up at least $800,000 dollars or more often in places few Americans are willing to invest in. The entrepreneur seeking a residency in America gets no guarantees except the shot at receiving a green card, provided they meet the strict requirements. What critics refuse to tell you is that this program has already pumped billions into our economy, generating tens of thousands of jobs, all while maintaining a pristine record of investor integrity. As a business owner I see how the program turns foreign capital into American opportunity. Between 2008 and 2021, EB-5 generated $37.4 billion in foreign direct investment, funding projects like hotels, infrastructure, and real estate developments. These aren’t pie-in-the-sky schemes; they’re concrete contributions to American communities that need it most. The EB-5 program employs a rigorous application process because we want to ensure we are only inviting in pro-America, pro-freedom investors. Applicants must follow strict protocol: proving their funds are lawful, undergoing extensive background checks, and sustaining their investment for years. If EB-5 visa holders don’t live up to requirements, their visas are revoked. The program’s track record speaks for itself. I can’t find any evidence of EB-5 visa holders being convicted of crimes or causing problems in America. In 2005, government investigators found fraud on behalf of program operators not the investors. Those responsible were arrested and prosecuted. In 2022, Congress refined the EB-5 visa system leading to better oversight and vetting of potential investors. As a result, program compliance rates are now reaching all time highs. This isn’t a wide-open floodgate to America either. The EB-5 program has an annual allocation of fewer than 10,000 visas. In 2024 we saw that many foreigners use the Biden era CBP One app to enter America each day! Unlike other visa programs, it doesn’t displace American workers; it creates jobs for them—over 1.7 million between 2016-2019 alone. These are American jobs created with foreign money, that could have been spent elsewhere. The EB-5 visa program is self-funded, with zero cost to the taxpayer. It’s a model of what immigration policy should be: selective, merit-based, and America-first. Under President Trump’s leadership, the program was strengthened, with investment thresholds raised in 2019 to ensure only serious investors qualify. The 2022 reforms added more transparency and accountability. The program proves, we can have secure borders and economic growth. We don’t have to choose. EB-5 visa holders are investors, not freeloaders. They don’t drain our government services, they create a tax base to help pay for those services. These are America-loving investors who want to build America with us. The EB-5 program proves it’s possible to uphold conservative principles while harnessing global wealth for American prosperity. Congress should expand this program, maximize its potential, and send a clear message: America is open for business, not for open borders.

This week on the Mark Levin Show, open borders, radicalized college campuses, and biased media drive cultural decay in the U.S. Unvetted immigration from conflict zones, homegrown terrorism fueled by media misrepresentation, and Marxist indoctrination in universities are key issues. A Marxist allegedly killed two people in D.C. weeks ago and now an Egyptian illegal immigrant allegedly tried to kill people protesting Hamas in Boulder, Colorado, with Molotov cocktails. Biden's policies worsened these problems, and outlets like CNN and the New York Times spread Hamas propaganda, such as false claims of Israeli attacks. The United States is among the most religiously tolerant nations, with the Constitution ensuring freedoms for all, regardless of beliefs. Faith acts as a moral foundation, moderating behavior and fostering societal civility, even influencing non-believers through surrounding values. Christianity does not seek political control, in contrast to political Islam, which aims for centralized authority over society and government. Without an enlightenment embracing individual liberty, Islam's dominant establishment often supports Islamism, which clashes with Western values. Importing such ideologies into the U.S. may lead to resistance against assimilation, as seen in parts of Europe and emerging in America. An Egyptian national, illegally in the U.S. after overstaying a tourist visa, allegedly attacked Jewish Americans, including a Holocaust survivor, in Boulder, Colorado. The Biden administration's lax vetting and work permit issuance enabled this incident. How many people do we have like this in America? Mark contrasts Alexander Hamilton's vision of a strong central government with Jefferson and Madison's preference for limited federal power and strong state authority. Hamilton's ideas, like a lifelong executive and senators, were rejected by most framers, who favored state-centric governance, as Madison emphasized in Federalist 45. Hamilton's support for implied powers (Federalist 33) appeals to modern advocates of activist government. Elon Musk's push for spending cuts right now is nonsensical. Tax cuts are urgently needed to boost the economy and help Republicans maintain control during the midterms. Yes, spending is out of control but addressing it all at once is challenging. The Convention of States movement is a vital, under-discussed solution to institutionally fix congressional dysfunction, with frustration over Musk and others' lack of support or mention of this critical initiative for long-term conservative fiscal reform. Democrats are misrepresenting the bill's effects, exaggerating economic harm, and overlooking their own $2 trillion Inflation Reduction Act. Also, a nuclear deal proposal offered to Iran was rejected by Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The deal required Iran to stop uranium enrichment. Iran's firm rejection may lead to consequences from President Trump if their stance continues. A Chinese couple were charged with smuggling a biological pathogen into the U.S. Communist China is trying to poison us and kill our crops. This is what happens when you have open borders and democrats. Meanwhile, Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs vetoed a bill limiting Chinese land ownership near military bases. Some Democrats are special pleaders for the enemy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
On Monday's Mark Levin Show, open borders, radicalized college campuses, and biased media drive cultural decay in the U.S. Unvetted immigration from conflict zones, homegrown terrorism fueled by media misrepresentation, and Marxist indoctrination in universities are key issues. A Marxist allegedly killed two people in D.C. weeks ago and now an Egyptian illegal immigrant allegedly tried to kill people protesting Hamas in Boulder, Colorado, with Molotov cocktails. Biden's policies worsened these problems, and outlets like CNN and the New York Times spread Hamas propaganda, such as false claims of Israeli attacks. Later, colleges and universities have been destroyed by Islamists, Marxists, and foreign influences like Qatar, Iran, and Hamas, with Jews being targeted in a manner reminiscent of the 1930s. These groups, supported by the Democrat Party, media, and courts, are anti-American and aim to collapse the system. Also, President Trump forcefully posted about Iran – “The AUTOPEN should have stopped Iran a long time ago from “enriching.” Under our potential Agreement — WE WILL NOT ALLOW ANY ENRICHMENT OF URANIUM!” He may have posted this as a response to leakers claiming there's a deal that allows Iran to enrich uranium. These leaks might come from the fifth column isolationists or Iranian sympathizers within the administration aiming to undermine Trump. Afterward, the United States is among the most religiously tolerant nations, with the Constitution ensuring freedoms for all, regardless of beliefs. Faith acts as a moral foundation, moderating behavior and fostering societal civility, even influencing non-believers through surrounding values. Christianity does not seek political control, in contrast to political Islam, which aims for centralized authority over society and government. Without an enlightenment embracing individual liberty, Islam's dominant establishment often supports Islamism, which clashes with Western values. Importing such ideologies into the U.S. may lead to resistance against assimilation, as seen in parts of Europe and emerging in America. In Addition, George Washington University's Program on Extremism details how Hamas established early ties with Iran through meetings led by Mousa Abu Marzook, a key Hamas figure, while he was a student in the U.S. in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Marzook, who later became Deputy Chief of Hamas's Political Bureau, orchestrated these connections from American soil. These ties, formalized during a 1991 Tehran meeting, laid the groundwork for Iran's long-term backing of Hamas, including advanced knowledge of Hamas's October 7, 2023, attack on Israel. Can you imagine what's going on today? Finally, Steve Moore calls in and highlights the economy's strong performance in the second quarter, citing a Federal Reserve estimate of 4.6% GDP growth, a significant rebound from the negative 0.2% in the first quarter under Biden. He notes low inflation at under 2.5%, compared to Biden's average of 6%, and emphasizes rising personal income and consumer spending. Moore credits these improvements to the early days of Trump's presidency, countering media predictions of economic collapse. He also stresses the urgency of making Trump's tax cuts permanent to avoid a historic tax increase, which Moore says would cost the average family $2,500 annually. Learn more about your ad choices.
