Podcast appearances and mentions of paul embery

In this explosive Heretics interview, left-wing trade unionist Paul Embery delivers a scathing critique of Britain's political class, Keir Starmer, wokeness, multiculturalism, mass immigration and the modern Left. From Labour's abandonment of the working class to the Lebanon-isation of Britain, Embery unpacks the deep cultural and political crisis facing the UK. "No other country trashes its own history like Britain." "The Labour Party is now run by social activists and student radicals." "We promoted a hard multiculturalism that is now fracturing the country." #PaulEmbery #BritishPolitics #CultureWar  Support my guest by going to http://paulembery.com  Get his book, Despised: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Despised-Modern-Loathes-Working-Class/dp/1509539999  Follow him on X: https://x.com/PaulEmbery    Join the 30k heretics on my mailing list: https://andrewgoldheretics.com  Check out my new documentary channel: https://youtube.com/@andrewgoldinvestigates  Andrew on X: https://twitter.com/andrewgold_ok   Insta: https://www.instagram.com/andrewgold_ok Heretics YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@andrewgoldheretics Chapters: 0:00 Paul Embery Highlights 0:55 Is the UK Just An Airport? 3:55 Elites & Liberal Progressivism 6:45 JD Vance - Elites vs Ordinary People 7:55 Conspiracy Theories About Kate Middleton 9:40 Epstein's Island & Hunter Biden's Laptop 12:25 What Happened to the Left? 15:25 The Best Example of Leftist Contempt 20:20 Will What Happened to Lebanon Happen to Us? 23:55 Cultural Enrichment 26:55 Tommy Robinson 30:55 Delivery Man Kicking Fella on the Floor 33:55 Japan Example 37:55 National Identity & Making Parliament Artists More Diverse 40:55 Prince Harry the Worst Example 43:55 Harry & Meghan Criticism 47:20 Owen Jones 48:55 Problem with Queers for Palestine 51:55 What We Can Learn From Trump 55:10 A Heretic Paul Admires Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, my guest is Paul Embery, a British author, political commentator, firefighter, and trade union activist for the London Fire Brigade. Embery is a columnist for publications like Unherd, HuffPo, the BBC, and serves as a guest host for The Political Correction segment of GB News.In 2020, Embery published his best selling book, Despised: Why the Modern Left Loathes the Working Class. It was this illuminating and controversial book that inspired me to reach out and invite him on the show. Drawing on his background as a lifelong liberal who grew up in the blue collar town of Dagenham, Embery writes passionately about the disconnect between the traditional working-class values of his upbringing vs. globalization and the new wave of identity politics that now dominates the Labour Party.  During our chat, we discussed the many parallels between Britain's Labour Party, and America's Democratic Party. The similarities are stunning, to say the least. I hope you enjoy Paul's insight and candor as much as I did.Watch Episode:True Thirty is a reader-supported publication.

In our Books worth Reading series, Ratnaguna talks to Advayacitta about Paul Embery's book: Despised. See video version

Publishing is one of the industries worst-affected by wokery. Staffed by young, left-leaning university graduates, most publishing houses have adopted draconian policies on who and what they will and won't publish. As a result, many top notch authors have found themselves essentially blacklisted, their worthy manuscripts rejected. Whilst international titans such as JK Rowling and Jordan Peterson are too big to cancel, many less well-known authors have struggled to get their works to the public. Until now. Our guest on this week's #SWYSI is George Owers, editorial director of Forum, an imprint of Swift Press that will focus on publishing books that question contemporary orthodoxies. Forum's first title is Woke Racism: How a New Religion has Betrayed Black America by the New York Times columnist John McWhorter. It will be followed in June by Reopening Muslim Minds: A Return to Freedom, Reason, and Tolerance by Mustafa Akyol. Books already acquired for 2023 include Mary Harrington's Feminism Against Progress, Rakib Ehsan's Beyond Grievance: What the Left Gets Wrong about Ethnic Minorities, and psychology professor Luke Conway's Liberal Bullies: Why the Left has an Authoritarianism Problem and How to Fix It. In his previous position at Polity Press, Mr. Owers commissioned and edited books including Despised by Paul Embery, The Case Against the Sexual Revolution by Louise Perry, and The Dignity of Labour by Jon Cruddas. He has a PhD in the history of political thought and was the youngest Cambridge city councillor ever elected.

Kate Andrews is joined by writer and political activist Paul Embery; journalist Ayesha Hazarika; Tory MP Iain Duncan Smith; security expert Elisabeth Braw, resident fellow at the American Enterprise Institute; Spectator contributor Matthew Lynn; and a team of Spectator journalists. We discuss Labour's weekend in Brighton and whether Keir Starmer is taking the party in the right direction, how Britain can be better prepared for crises and why Ursula von der Leyen was the real winner of the recent German elections.

Engelske Labour er i krise, og den krisa ser ikke ut til å avta med det første. En av hovedårsakene er at partiet har beveget seg bort fra det som var dets viktigste base: arbeiderklassen.  Her er det uendelig mye å lære for våre egne politikere. England er ofte fremtiden vår. (Slagordene under pågående valgkamp tyder vel egentlig på et de har lært en del av England allerede.)Jeg ble veldig glad da fagforeningsmannen, brannmannen, forfatteren og kommentatorene Paul Embery sa ja til å ta en prat med meg om dette. Det er en fascinerende historie. Og Embery har fått rett i sine spådommer om det meste de siste årene. Slike bør man lytte til. Og jeg finner folk som Embery å være mer relevante og interessante på dette området enn både akademikere og politikere flest. Hans bok heter Despised. Ikke overraskende sikter tittelen til hvordan arbeiderklassen blir sett på av en sjokkerende stor del av sitt gamle parti.  Vi fikk en time omtrent. Jeg skulle gjerne hatt to til, ettersom temaet er stort og vanskelig å tømme.Vi måtte snu oss fort rundt for å tidene våre til å passe. Så her er det hjemmestudio på begge to, med påfølgende lydkvalitet. Jeg beklager dette. Men det er jo noe podcastlyttere bør være vant til nå etter over et år med coronaopptak. 

Listeners may recall Peter Mandelson, the veteran UK Cabinet Secretary appointed EU Commissioner for Trade in the late 2000s upon helping orchestrate Labour's social-liberal pivot as one of Tony Blair's “spin doctors”. Mandelson's incarnation of the party's notorious “Third Way” didn't just owe to his Europhile credentials and support for Blairite programs. By racking up a string of landslide victories in the northeastern constituency of Hartlepool, his career showcased Labour's potential to press ahead with market-based and socially progressive reforms whilst retaining its historic foothold in working-class communities. Fast forward to May 6th this year, and the party's gradual loss of its core electorate in the intervening decade was nowhere in better display than in the by-election that saw the Tories flip the Hartlepool seat with a voting share 23 points larger. The political realignment underway in British politics is often chalked up to Brexit and Jeremy Corbyn's radical neo-socialism. Yet its contours are in fact proving deeper and more lasting, as voters get to weigh Boris Johnson's promises to level up the North-South divide against Keir Starmer's declared reversion to centrist politics. Beyond local variations, the trajectory for the working-class vote is one of unprecedented disaffection with Labour. This week's episode gauges the causes, extent and nuances of this trend with Paul Embery and Nick Timothy.
