In this episode, Jan Jekielek interviews John O’Sullivan, a former policy and speech writer for British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, and former editor-in-chief of National Review and executive editor of Radio Free Europe. Today, he’s the president of the Danube Institute, a Hungary-based think-tank.

A β€œunified national identity is an absolute essential for a successful democracy,” he says. β€œIf we continue on a multicultural path, it’s a path which is going to go in the directions of ever more aggressive and hostile identity politics, and people will feel that their neighbors are their enemies.”

O’Sullivan’s latest book is titled: β€œSleepwalking into Wokeness: How We Got Here.”
β€œThe idea of post-nationalism is unachievable if you’re a state. You don’t remain just a post-national state, what you become is something else,” he says.
