In this Special Episode of the Sceptic, Laurie speaks to Dr Mario Trabucco della Toretta, classical archaeologist and writer.

In this extended interview, Laurie and Mario discuss the British Museum and why it’s the best in the world, its magnificent collection and where it came from, why the ‘decolonise’ lobby is so wrong to claim it’s all ‘looted’, the truth about the Elgin Marbles, why the arguments for repatriating them don’t stack up, what’s behind the anti-Westernism of the ‘decolonisers’ and how we can fight back.

NOTE: Premium subscribers will notice that this is an extract from the premium section of Episode 34. We’re sorry that there is no new episode today. This is due to circumstances beyond our control. The Sceptic will return next week as usual.
