From the Archives: Brian Gerrish Speaks To Child Abuse Whistleblower and Former Met Police Officer Jon Wedger | UK Column Interviews

Author: UK Column September 1, 2026 Duration: 32:19

This hard-hitting interview from 2018 with former Detective Constable Jon Wedger is as relevant now as it was then.

It explains how the system fails to protect vulnerable children, especially those in care. In fact, the system does quite the opposite. Jon observes that the establishment closes ranks in a wall of silence to protect itself and abusers.

Jon has faced significant pushback from the police for his findings.

Tune in to UK Column News, a daily podcast from the independent news organisation of the same name. This isn't a recap of headlines from the mainstream wire services. Instead, the team at UK Column digs into the stories and narratives shaping public perception, focusing on what they term the 'information war.' Each episode provides analysis you're unlikely to find elsewhere, examining the interplay between government policy, media reporting, and institutional influence. Because they operate without any corporate backing, advertising, or funding from political groups, their perspective is uniquely supported by their audience through memberships and donations. This independence is the core of the podcast, allowing for straightforward commentary free from external pressures. Listeners will hear detailed discussions on current events in the UK and beyond, often connecting dots between seemingly separate issues to present a broader picture of governance and societal change. The tone is analytical and deliberate, prioritising depth over soundbites. For those seeking an alternative to conventional news cycles and curious about the mechanics behind the stories that dominate the day, this podcast offers a consistent and critical voice. It’s for anyone who questions the prevailing narrative and wants news analysis that answers to its listeners, not to sponsors or shareholders.
