Why Britain is Corrupt | Michael Rainsborough The Sceptic Ep.76

Michael Rainsborough on Britain’s state corruption and why inquiries never work. Plus: the BBC’s Net Zero U-turn. In Episode 76 of the Sceptic, host Laurie Wastell speaks to Michael Rainsborough, Daily Sceptic contributor and Professor of Strategic Theory and Director of the Centre for Future Defence and National Security at Deakin University, Victoria, about British state corruption. Michael explains how our frequent public inquiries, in hock to misguided liberal proceduralism, hold no one to account for state failure. Instead, he argues the current national grooming gangs inquiry should follow the model of Hong Kong’s highly successful Independent Commission Against Corruption.
