Well, we‘re taking some of that space back! If you’re dying for some dialogue instead of all the yelling; if you know it’s okay to have differences without having to hate each other; if you believe politics and religion are too important to let ”the screamers” drown out the rest of us and would love some engagin ...

This is the audio from a video we have just published on our YouTube channel – an interview with Macer Gifford. To make sure you never miss great content like this, subscribe to our channel: https://www.youtube.com/@spiked
‘To fight evil.’ That’s why Macer Gifford gave up his comfortable life as a City of London currency trader to fight as an international volunteer in two major conflicts – first in Syria, and then in Ukraine. In 2014, he joined the Kurds in their battle against ISIS. In 2022, he helped Ukrainians fend off Putin’s Russia. Here, Macer reveals the perils of 21st-century warfare, recalls the joy of liberating Kherson, and explains why Ukrainians are still willing to risk it all for their freedom.
