In this episode I welcome back libertarian author and former Member of the European Parliament, Godfrey Bloom. Godfrey shares his views on the decline of democratic and moralistic principles, and the current state of global politics. Bloom discusses his recent book tour in America, reflecting on the social and political degradation he perceives, particularly in urban areas compared to rural communities. The conversation also touches on the justice system and the ethical decline at higher levels of power. Bloom expresses concerns about the erosion of freedoms and the manipulation of public opinion through controlled narratives in media and politics.
Additionally, Bloom provides a critical analysis of ongoing conflicts in Israel, Palestine, Russia, and Ukraine, offering his perspective on the geopolitical strategies and historical contexts that shape these issues. He criticizes the influence of external powers in regional conflicts and questions the integrity of international alliances like NATO.
Throughout the episode, Bloom advocates for a return to more localized governance and greater individual freedoms, warning against the dangers of centralized power and the suppression of dissenting voices. His insights challenge listeners to reconsider the narratives presented by mainstream media and the state of current global affairs.
