Cross-post from Thinking Class
Last week I appeared on the new Thinking Class Podcast, hosted by John Gillam. John has only started his podcast recently but has already interviewed high-status people like Ed West, Frank Furedi, Rakib Ehsan, Tomiwa Owolade and now me. One of these things is not like the other... We talked about motivations for public service, the decline of conservatism in British political class, whether Gen-Z might possess a reactionary streak, what people mean when they talk about 'the blob', why developing a policy of Anglo-futurism would be a good thing, why a policy of mass immigration is destructive, and why Tim Martin deserves his knighthood. Enjoy! -
Tom Jones

Tom is concerned with winning back a conservative Britain fit for the 21st Century and engages is a commentator and critic of social policy, culture, and the political class.

In this episode, we talk about his motivations for public service, the decline of conservatism in British political class, whether Gen-Z might possess a reactionary streak, what people mean when they talk about 'the blob', why developing a policy of Anglo-futurism would be a good thing, the power of vernacular architecture, why a policy of mass immigration is destructive, and why Tim Martin of Wetherspoons fame deserves a knighthood.
