  HOW I THINK WE FIX BRITAIN'S BROKEN ECONOMIC MODEL! 20.08.2026 7p

  Mass migration, welfare dependency, employment taxes and inadequate training are interconnected problems. In the final episode, I set out how Britain could begin fixing the system — reducing reliance on imported labour, reforming welfare, encouraging employers to hire British workers and putting skills and training back at the heart of the economy.

  Rachel Reeves and the killer Jobs Tax! 20.08.2026 7p

  With Britain’s labour market already under pressure, Rachel Reeves increased employers’ National Insurance and made hiring more expensive. I examine why taxing employment risks fewer vacancies, weaker opportunities for young people and even greater dependence on welfare.

  The Great Welfare Contradiction! 20.08.2026 7p

  Britain supposedly needs hundreds of thousands of overseas workers, yet millions of working-age people remain economically inactive. How can we have labour shortages, mass immigration and a soaring welfare bill at the same time? I explore one of the biggest contradictions in the British economy.

  Brexit - did we really take back control? 20.08.2026 6p

  Brexit promised to give Britain control of its borders — and it did. So why did non-EU migration subsequently surge? I look at how Britain replaced its reliance on EU labour with workers from further afield and ask whether this is remotely what millions of Leave voters thought they were voting for.

  Where did all the British Jobs go? 20.08.2026 8p

  Britain has added millions of jobs over the past decade, but who actually got them? I examine the extraordinary growth in non-EU employment, the relative weakness of employment growth among British nationals, and ask whether our economy is really delivering for the people already living here.

  Britain's George Floyd moment? 19.08.2026 19p

  Is Britain witnessing the creation of a new political martyr? Following the death of Professor Jason Arday and a huge Trafalgar Square vigil, I examine how legitimate questions about his academic record risk being recast as evidence of racism. I ask whether compassion for a tragic death should ever require us to abandon scrutiny, overlook uncomfortable facts, or rewrite somebody’s story. And I consider the bigger question: did academia itself help create the very circumstances it now condemns? Join my Substack for exclusive insights and stories—subscribe here. Love the podcast?

  REFORMING the Welfare State 18.08.2026 28p

  Reform UK has unveiled plans to cut more than £50 billion from the working-age welfare bill by 2030. In this podcast, I look at how Britain’s welfare state grew from a safety net into a vast system of dependency, why health and disability claims have surged, and whether Reform’s proposals on PIP, citizenship, community work and getting people back into employment offer the radical reset Britain now needs.

  The tragedy of Jason Arday and Institutional cowardice 17.08.2026 23p

  The death of Professor Jason Arday raises more questions that it answers and we need to forensically pursue this. Join my Substack for exclusive insights and stories—subscribe here. Love the podcast? Support the show and buy me a coffee at davidvance.net—your support keeps the episodes coming.

  The Islamic Republic of Britain! 15.08.2026 24p

  Benjamin Netanyahu’s “Islamic Republic of Britain” jibe caused outrage — but does it raise a question worth asking? I look beyond the headline to Britain’s changing demographics, the rise of religious politics, failures of assimilation and, above all, whether Britain still has the confidence to defend its own culture, freedoms and identity Join my Substack for exclusive insights and stories—subscribe here.

  The LESSONS from Clacton 14.08.2026 22p

  Nigel Farage has won Clacton — and increased his share of the vote dramatically. But the real story is bigger than one by-election. In this podcast, I look at why Reform now poses a genuine threat to Britain’s Labour-Conservative duopoly, why the attacks on Farage are intensifying, and what Clacton may tell us about the road to 2029.

  Ann Widdecombe's fina journey and what it means for us all! 13.08.2026 20p

  A reflective look at Ann Widdecombe’s funeral, the life behind the politics, and what remains when the arguments finally fall silent. I consider faith, conviction, mortality, friendship and the importance of finding a safe haven from the noise of public life. Join my Substack for exclusive insights and stories—subscribe here.

  From the Boats to your Postcode! 12.08.2026 17p

  230 migrants crammed onto a single inflatable — so much for the “small boats” crisis! I look at why the boats are getting bigger, Andy Burnham’s extraordinary suggestion that more communities should “play their part”, and Angela Rayner’s focus on women and children. Is Labour actually stopping illegal migration — or simply preparing to spread its consequences around Britain? Join my Substack for exclusive insights and stories—subscribe here. Love the podcast?

  THE FARAGE CONNECTION — WHAT DID THE AUTHORITIES MISS? 11.08.2026 12p

  Nigel Farage says an alleged incendiary attack on his home is “directly linked” to the Ann Widdecombe murder investigation. So what did the authorities know, what did they miss — and could warning signs have been overlooked? I examine the disturbing questions now emerging from this extraordinary case.

  Will the NEW IRA drive the migrants out of Ireland? 10.08.2026 20p

  Is the New IRA really planning to drive migrants out of Ireland — or are we watching an extraordinary claim become “fact” through repetition? I examine the evidence, the role of anonymous intelligence sources, and why legitimate concerns about mass immigration must never be conflated with terrorism.

  Professor Fantasy's 7UP adventure! 09.08.2026 18p

  Jason Arday’s extraordinary Seven Up claim raises a much bigger question: how do remarkable personal stories become accepted as fact without proper scrutiny? I look beyond the controversy to examine university culture, institutional credibility and what happens when an irresistible biography finally collides with the evidence.

  Ann Widdecombe - when an OLD File matters! 08.08.2026 15p

  An old police file connected to Ann Widdecombe has suddenly been reopened — and counter-terrorism officers are now looking at what may have been missed in 2025. I look beyond the headlines at why the past can take on a very different meaning after a murder, the intriguing Farage parallel, and the crucial difference between asking legitimate questions and jumping to conclusions. The evidence hasn’t necessarily changed. The context has. Join my Substack for exclusive insights and stories—subscribe here. Love the podcast?

  What EXACTLY does it mean to be BRITISH? 07.08.2026 19p

  What actually makes someone British? Is it simply a shared set of liberal values, or something deeper—history, culture, continuity and the people themselves? In this episode, I examine the viral clash between Julia Hartley-Brewer and Charlie Downes and ask whether Britain can survive as the same nation if its historic people and identity disappear.

  Ceuta wasn't just a CRISIS, it was also a WARNING! 06.08.2026 13p

  Ceuta wasn’t just a MAJOR border incident. It was a warning. In this episode, I look beyond the headlines to explore what the crisis reveals about Europe’s immigration policies, national sovereignty, border security and Spain’s political direction under Pedro Sánchez. Is Ceuta an isolated event—or a TRAGIC glimpse of Europe’s future? Join me as we unpack the bigger picture! Join my Substack for exclusive insights and stories—subscribe here. Love the podcast?

  Without PUBLIC DEBATE, the UK will fall! 05.08.2026 9p

  When did Britain reach the point where a debate needed police lines and road closures? In this episode, I explore what the Oxford Union debate on Islam reveals about the state of free speech, public discourse and our growing reluctance to confront difficult ideas. Whatever your views on the motion, this conversation is really about something much bigger—the future of open debate in Britain. Join my Substack for exclusive insights and stories—subscribe here.

  WHY the Right always snatches defeat from the jaws of victory! 04.08.2026 11p

  Why does the British Right so often fall out just as victory comes into sight? In this episode, I explore Farage–Lowe exchanges, what they reveal about the state of the Right, and why history suggests division—not Labour—could be its biggest obstacle. A timely conversation about leadership, coalitions and the price of political infighting. Join my Substack for exclusive insights and stories—subscribe here. Love the podcast?
