I want to ask you just a few more questions about anti-Semitism. There have been almost 6,000 anti-Semitic incidents recorded in the UK since October 7th, a 200% increase. Some people have called London, or at least parts of London, a no-go zone for Jews. Just last week, I'm sure you read about this, there were two buses of students with 11- and 12-year-old kids from a Jewish school.
Teenagers threw rocks. They came onto the bus. They were yelling, fuck Israel, and they were 11- and 12-year-old kids.
On here, they film themselves doing it. I mean, like, how is this going to be turned around?
Well, just for the listener, let's give an example of two-tiered policing, right? So what we're seeing from here is these protests in which people are actively calling for jihad. By the way, we don't even need to go to the streets. We can go to what happened at Oxford in You know, at the Oxford Union in late November, where they had this kind of a real brouhaha.
They had a proposition that was, this house believes Israel's an apartheid state responsible for genocide. The pro-Israel speakers were shut down. People were saying absolutely insane things. Nothing happens.
And yet you have this Telegraph columnist or writer, Alison Pearson, who tweets something a year ago, an off-color tweet, deletes it, and then gets a visit to her house by the police on a Sunday morning for inciting racial hatred. And this kind of thing makes people think, wait, are there two different rules depending on who the speaker is? Explain that for us who are watching from over here.
After the break, we talk about why Kemi Badenoch dies on the hill of the culture war. We talk about DEI, CRT, trans issues, euthanasia, and much more. Stay with us.

It's a brand new limited series podcast, and let me tell you, it's what we need right now. The world can feel pretty dark these days, but my good friend Elon Gold and his co-host Eli Leonard, who's also a friend of mine, bring a fresh, humorous perspective, showing us that it's possible to laugh even when we're talking about the serious stuff.
In Stars of David with Elon Gold, they sit down with Jewish guests who have made a real impact, whether by making us laugh or fighting for justice. It's the perfect mix of funny and meaningful. And what sets it apart? It's unapologetically Jewish. There's comedy, culture, and even a little kvetching thrown in for good measure.
They play Jewish geography and learn a new Yiddish word with Elon's parents in every episode. Here's the thing, like curb your enthusiasm, you don't have to be Jewish to love it. Stars of David with Elon Gold is for anyone who appreciates good humor, good conversation, and a new way of looking at the world.
So subscribe now to Stars of David with Elon Gold wherever you listen to your podcasts or head to Unpacked Podcasts on YouTube. Let's talk about some of the social issues that have exploded here in the U.S. and also, of course, in the U.K. You have been very outspoken against DEI, which is diversity, equity, and inclusion, but of course means actually something very different, as well as CRT.
It's an alphabet soup, critical race theory. And people have called you a race traitor for opposing these things. They say, why are you focusing on being a culture warrior? You should focus on economics, taxes, immigration, kitchen table issues. Why is this so important to you? Why is this a hill worth dying on?
She is the legal theorist who created critical race.
Were you guys like on the panel together?
It also seems like a way of sort of stealthily bringing back almost like tribal warfare.
DEI and CRT, those are not the only culture war topics that you've weighed in on. You're a passionate feminist. You've called yourself a gender-critical feminist.
And the issue, obviously, of feminism and the conflict, I guess, between traditional feminism and women's rights and trans rights has been at the center of politics here in America and in the UK. What is at stake, in your view, on this topic? Why is it so important to you? Well, because I think...
One last culture war question. It's bigger than the culture war. I think it has to do with something much deeper, which is about meaning of our lives. The rise of medically assisted suicide is a huge issue in Canada, and it's become a very big issue in the UK. What do you think about it? Why is that an issue that's coming up right now?
