UnHerd's Freddie Sayers sits down with Jonathan Sumption to discuss Shamima Begum's citizenship case.
Read the accompanying article: https://unherd.com/watch-listen/the-case-for-shamima-begum/
Listen to the podcast: https://plnk.to/unherd?to=page
On Friday, February 23rd, the UK's Court of Appeal rejected the case of Shamima Begum to have her British citizenship reinstated. The 15 year old schoolgirl had run away in 2015 to join the Islamic State and marry a jihadi. In 2019, the Home Secretary revoked her British citizenship, on the grounds that she had a Bangladeshi passport, and she’s been fighting to return home since then.
Is this new ruling a victory for national security, or a wound to the legal premise of liberty?
Former Supreme Court justice Lord Jonathan Sumption, one of the great legal minds of his generation, joined UnHerd's Freddie Sayers...

Listen to the podcast: https://plnk.to/unherd?to=page
Tucker Carlson’s recent trip to Moscow, where he filmed an interview with President Putin, seems to have turned into more of a promotional tour. New videos of ornate metro stations and functional supermarkets have been offered by Carlson’s channel as proof of Western decline and Russian superiority.
Is Carlson really suggesting that the Kremlin regime that this week allegedly assassinated vocal critic Alexei Navalny would be preferable to the Western democratic system?

This week, Vladimir Putin's government announced a new round of sanctions on British individuals. Where most have focused on politicians and military leaders, this list was the first to focus on cultural figures.
It was accompanied with a statement that claimed the Kremlin was sanctioning “Russophobic British representatives” for “trying to discredit the constitutional system and socio-political processes in our country” and “pushing the Zelenskyy regime to continue the bloodshed” in Ukraine. They wrote that "the so-called brain trusts operating [in] British educational institutions make a significant contribution to the subversive work of London in the Russian direction" and that academics including Abulafia "bore responsibility for crimes against civilians...

Will 2024 be the year of a Third World War? As Russia’s war in Ukraine grinds on, the Middle East threatens to erupt, and China intensifies its military pressure on Taiwan, a global conflict seems all but inevitable.
How strange, then, that Britain’s Armed Forces are unprepared to defend their country. Over the past month, an increasing number of military insiders have been sounding the alarm, warning that, if we are to survive, we may have no choice but to enlist a “citizen army”.
The truth, however, is even more concerning.

Katharine Birbalsingh is the founder and head teacher of Michaela Community School, a free school in London. Since opening in 2014 Michaela has become a lightning rod for the culture war around education, and Birbalsingh has replaced the “student-centred” approach of modern teaching with a no-tolerance code of behaviour.
And as it turns out, “the strictest school in Britain” seems to work. Michaela is rated by Ofsted as “outstanding” and rivals the top-ranking private schools in England for exam results. But this week, it was announced that Birbalsingh would have to defend Michaela’s ethos at the High Court, after she banned prayer at ...

At the start of the war, Oleksiy Arestovych was the spokesman for President Zelenskyy and one of the most recognisable faces on Ukrainian TV. His nightly briefings on the status of the war earned him the nickname the ‘therapist-in-chief’ and at one point his approval ratings were second only to the President. Since then, he has become a fierce critic of the Zelenskyy administration and has left the country to avoid multiple prosecutions. Now he plans to run for president against Zelenskyy at the next election.
In his first Western media interview since his fall-out with the Government, he spoke from the United States to Freddie Sayers.

Late last night, the US and Britain launched attacks on Houthi military targets in Yemen, after weeks of warning the Iranian-backed rebels to stop attacking commercial ships. Under the cover of darkness, the US-led strikes hit more than 60 targets in 16 different locations, which resulted in at least five deaths (with a further six wounded).
Western powers have since tried to downplay concerns that the conflict in the Middle East is escalating. Earlier today, Pentagon officials claimed that the strikes were part of an effort to “de-escalate tensions and restore stability in the Red Sea”. But with the Houthis vowing retaliation, is the situ...

San Francisco, for decades known around the world for its jazz, free love and beat poetry, has in recent years become notorious for a different reason. Tent encampments on its streets and open-air drug markets have become a reference point for the consequences of ultra-progressive policies.
Florence Read and Freddie Sayers took a film crew (and an armed security guard) into the Tenderloin district to find out the truth for themselves. This special report includes remarkable interviews with city supervisor Dean Preston and Michael Shellenberger, author of San Fransicko, as well as drug users, locals and activists across the West.
Their report dives into the ideological and practical battles at the heart of the story, and asks whether San Francisco today could be a harbinger of things to come across the Western world.

Above the fireplace at the UnHerd club sits an original commission by the artist J.G. Fox. It’s called ‘The Political Herds’ and is a contemporary take on Victorian watercolours that sketched out crowds like the Corpus Christi Day parade in great detail.
It is based upon J. G. Fox’s earlier work ‘The Political Landscape’, which was displayed at the London Art Biennale 2023, and won the International Confederation of Art Critics Award.
He has replaced the historical figures with beautifully done sketches of today’s manifold political herds and micro-groupings — the kinds that UnHerd tries to understand and document every day but not join — in stunning detail. It’s witty, attractive and something that our members never fail to linger over and enjoy.

The pro-Palestine protest in central London this weekend was very nearly cancelled before it began. Falling on Armistice Day, some supporters of Israel dubbed it a ‘hate march’ of Hamas sympathisers. Once it was clear that the march would go ahead, and with record attendance expected, UnHerd decided to see what the reality was on the ground.

UnHerd's Flo Read meets Nick Bostrom.
In the last year, artificial intelligence has progressed from a science-fiction fantasy to an impending reality. We can see its power in everything from online gadgets to whispers of a new, “post-singularity” tech frontier — as well as in renewed fears of an AI takeover.
One intellectual who anticipated this decades ago is Nick Bostrom, a Swedish philosopher at the University of Oxford and director of its Future of Humanity Institute. He joined UnHerd’s Florence Read to discuss extinction, the risk of government surveillance and how to use AI for the benefit of humanity.

Since its closure was announced last July, Gids — the Gender Identity Development Service at the world-renowned Tavistock and Portman Trust — has become synonymous with mismanagement and medical scandal.
It was supposed to be a haven for young people experiencing gender-related distress. Instead, following a string of complaints by whistle-blowers, an “inadequate” rating by the Care Quality Commission, a high-profile judicial review and, finally, a damning independent review, it was deemed unsafe.
In its place, two new regional hubs were set to open, with several more centres to follow. For Gids's long-standing critics, concerned about the distress its tumult was having on children, this came as a huge relief.
The story, however, does not end here.

Professor Tim Spector was one of the “winners” of the Covid era: his ZOE symptom tracker app accrued millions of users during the pandemic.
Now he has pivoted back to his true passion, gut health, and taken many of his followers with him. Endorsed by celebrities such as Davina McCall and Carrie Johnson, the new version of the ZOE app promises a personalised nutrition plan and comes with a glucose blood monitor usually used by diabetics. It is proving hugely popular, with over 100,000 subscribers paying up to £600 in their first year — and a further 300,000 on the waiting list.
It boasts all the hallmarks of a scientific endeavour, with endorsements by world-leading experts and numerous studies. But how convincing are its claims?
Deborah Cohen, Newsnight’s former Health Editor, and Margaret McCartney, a GP, undertook a forensic investigation for UnHerd and found that ZO...
