122. The Political Insider: How Social Media Is Quietly Rewiring UK Democracy with Mike Martin MP

Is the UK really on the brink of collapse - or are we victims of our own narratives?

In this revealing conversation, Dr. Mike Martin, former British Army officer, author of Why We Fight, and now Member of Parliament, breaks down what’s really driving Britain’s political, social, and moral crisis.

From the rise of authoritarian narratives to the weaponization of social media, Mike reveals why our biggest enemy isn’t immigration or the economy, it’s misinformation. Drawing from his experience on the battlefield and now in Parliament, Mike explains:

⬛ Why migration isn’t the crisis we think it is

⬛ How social media and foreign influence are polarizing the West

⬛ Why “the House of Commons is just theatre”

⬛ How the real work of politics happens behind the scenes

⬛ The connection between Ukraine, Gaza, and the global information war

⬛ What gives him hope about Britain’s future

A candid, no-nonsense conversation that cuts through political noise to uncover the psychology of modern conflict, the truth about migration, and what leadership really looks like. If you want to understand how narratives shape nations, and how to fix a broken system from within, this is a must-listen.
