Tucker Puts Piers Morgan’s Views on Free Speech to the Ultimate Test – Tucker Carlson Show (Transcript)

Here is the full transcript of The Tucker Carlson Show episode titled “Tucker Puts Piers Morgan’s Views on Free Speech to the Ultimate Test”, November 27, 2025.

Tucker Carlson’s latest conversation with Piers Morgan, filmed in London, dives into what he sees as Britain’s spiritual and cultural decline, using viral flashpoints like the arrest of a woman silently praying outside an abortion clinic as his starting point. From World War II and the NHS to mass immigration, free speech laws, and collapsing birthrates, the two clash over whether the UK is simply evolving or actively erasing the very identity that once made it the heart of the West. This conversation unpacks their most explosive exchanges on faith, national pride, and what it really means when a country starts to feel “defeated” from within.

The Fall of the British Empire

TUCKER CARLSON: Whatever happened to Britain or the UK or England or whatever they’re calling it? We can’t even agree on what it’s called. But England, the England that if you’re over 50, you grew up learning about, the England that controlled the world, the England that ran the largest empire in human history at the end of World War I.

Britain, which is an island in a pretty unhospitable climate, controlled literally a quarter of the Earth’s surface. And not controlled in the way the United States controls the rest of the world with an implied threat or with economic ties through trade, but actually controlled with administrators and people sitting at desks with eyeshades counting things. Like actually controlled a quarter of the Earth’s surface. Way more than Rome, way more than the Mongols, way more than anybody ever or maybe in the future ever.

Britain was the most powerful country in the history of the world. And then 25 years later, it was this kind of sad, soggy welfare state, which is to some extent what it still is, except maybe even a little bit worse.
