Journalist and researcher Charlotte Gill joins The Winston Marshall Show for a blistering exposé on government waste, academic absurdity, and the taxpayer-funded empire of ideological nonsense.
Gill reveals how billions of pounds are being siphoned into bizarre research projects through UKRI and its academic arms – the AHRC and ESRC. From “gay pig masculinities” to “Green inclusion”. Gill has uncovered an astonishing archive of publicly funded work that seems more like parody than policy.
We discuss how Britain’s universities became captured by radical ideology under the guise of scholarship. Gill warns that without scrutiny, these institutions will keep draining public money into activism masquerading as research.
All this – gay p*rn studies, postmodern pseudoscience, and the quiet bureaucracies turning academia into a taxpayer-funded circus…
In this interview, we discuss the biggest government scandal you’ve never heard of – how vast amounts of public money is funnelled into ideological vanity projects, bloated quangos, and politically motivated initiatives, all while essential public services struggle.
Charlotte exposes the deep state networks, shadowy funding structures, and NGOs that operate behind the scenes to reshape British politics without voter consent.
We also discuss the Left’s strategic control over institutions, the rise of DOGE UK, and why politicians refuse to tackle wasteful spending.
