Sort out the Boriswave, embrace automation, with Cllr Tom Jones (Scotton & Lower Wensleydale)

  • Summary

  • We welcome Cllr Tom Jones to the KCIII. Tom serves as the Councillor for Scotton & Lower Wensleydale on North Yorkshire Council and is also an accomplished essayist.

    Cllr Jones joins Calum and Tom to discuss Anglofuturism, immigration reform, and how Britain can build a more productive, high-wage future:

    The origins and appeal of Anglofuturism as both an aesthetic and political movement responding to economic stagnation and declining living standards for young Britons

    Tom Jones' immigration paper "Selecting the Best" which argues Britain's reliance on mass immigration has created a low-wage, low-productivity economy

    How "human quantitative easing"—importing cheap labor rather than investing in automation—has damaged British productivity and wages

    The car wash industry as a case study where cheap migrant labor replaced automated systems, creating exploitation and environmental problems

    The need to redirect state capacity toward strategic priorities like energy, manufacturing, and defence instead of dispersing resources

    How greater automation and selective high-skill immigration could transform Britain into a high-wage economy capable of meaningful global influence

    Listen on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. Produced by Aeron Laffere.
