I’m a Nigerian-Swedish antitrust lawyer, based in Brussels. A Citizen gives my take on politics and the open questions in society. It explores the evolving relationship between people and government, with a focus on liberty, transparency and community. It’s an endeavour in which I learn as I write, and hope to share different perspectives along the way. https://www.a-citizen.com/connect daily 0.75 2024-11-26 https://www.a-citizen.com/thenews daily 0.75 2021-07-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fde6b2aed4b90052b8f5e6f/1626473141206-6N0NG3CVWEEXBIHNYFO2/Triggernometry.jpg The News - Make it stand out Triggernometry: Free-speech show / podcast For a duo of comedians, Francis Foster and Konstantin Kisin have managed to develop a wonderful platform for unfiltered, frank discussion on all the hot topics. They have interviewed so many interesting guests from all walks of life - many of whom have been “cancelled” and are able to offer thoughtful perspectives not always found in the mainstream narrative. Given how grim or serious some of the topics can be, it is just as well that they have a (warped) sense of humour to lighten the mood once in a while. Highly recommended! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fde6b2aed4b90052b8f5e6f/1610719572562-S2LEK35IWNKR67I7WO11/image.png The News Thomas Sowell: American economist and senior fellow at Stanford University Sowell is a famed economist, scholar, philosopher and author, who frequently opines on the political landscape. Some of his most popular works include “Intellectuals and Society”, highlighting the danger of over-theorising public policy, and “Discrimination and Disparities”. His insights on society and politics are incredibly astute, always accompanied with a strong dose of common sense. He is often categorised as a conservative / libertarian thinker, although his analysis refreshingly transcends political lines. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fde6b2aed4b90052b8f5e6f/1610554316451-GW7SEZPY1ZAM1W4A5F8Q/Screenshot+2021-01-13+at+17.11.29.png The News Kim Iversen: Broadcaster and political commentator “I don't "fall in line" when the line leads to bullshit.” - Got to love her tag line! A self-proclaimed progressive, Iversen tends to give a fresh, objective analysis on most issues. She hosts a show available on YouTube, where she provides a frank and punchy take on both US and international politics, and also has https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fde6b2aed4b90052b8f5e6f/1610552761279-FDCH1OWMAMFOBVXJC37S/Dave-Rubin.jpg The News Dave Rubin: Political commentator and comedian He hosts The Rubin Report, with a range of diverse and interesting guests. He started a new social media website, Locals, as an alternative to the big platforms, and is the author of “Don’t Burn This Book: Thinking for Yourself in an Age of Unreason”. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fde6b2aed4b90052b8f5e6f/1608811678323-PTA8L4CI7K821U2HLX9G/UnHerd+Logo.png The News Unherd: UK-based “slow news” site “UnHerd aims to do two things: to push back against the herd mentality with new and bold thinking, and to provide a platform for otherwise unheard ideas, people and places.” They have a fantastic YouTube channel covering a range of topics, including various interviews on all aspects of Covid-19. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fde6b2aed4b90052b8f5e6f/1626472809989-Y06X7JN8PBY7T01DFM95/Ayaan.jpg The News - Make it stand out Ayaan Hirsi Ali: Somali activist, author, scholar and former politician Ayaan embodies the intellect, nuance, courage, compassion and common sense that is desperately needed in the current landscape of tribal politics. I am a huge fan. She hosts a podcast with fascinating guests, deemed “a home for critical thinking”. Ayaan emigrated to the Netherlands from war-torn Somalia, and became an MP in her adoptive country. After her involvement in a documentary criticising certain aspects of Islam, she was forced to live under state security and eventually relocated to the United States, where she is currently based.
