Hi, it's Fraser here, Deputy Editor of Spiked. Before we get into this week's episode of the Brendan O'Neill Show,

0:05.9

I just wanted to let you know about a very exciting event that Spiked is hosting. On the 27th of February,

0:12.6

Spiked will be celebrating our 25th birthday. And to mark the occasion, we'll be hosting a party in Central London for all of the people who make our work possible. That's the

0:21.7

with Nazis and associates of Nazis. But I just thought, that's nice if you want to ruin my

1:16.8

immediately that I would never work again. This is a fight that has to be had. And at the end of the

1:21.7

day, I think deep down, everybody knows the outcome is going to be, you will give us back our child

1:26.4

safeguards, you will give us back our sex-based rights,

1:29.4

and then we will move on and fight about something else.

1:31.8

And I think the reason that my story just has taken hold in people's hearts and minds in the public

1:36.1

Hello, welcome back to the Brendan O'Neill Show with me, Brendan O'Neill,
