The Mr MoneyJar Show

In this episode of the Mr MoneyJar Show, Rotimi Merriman-Johnson joins Mike Omoniyi, founder of the Common Sense Network, to dissect the complexities of modern politics and identity. They explore the rise of the far-right in the UK, the impact of polarisation, and the importance of defining Black Britishness on our own terms rather than through the lens of divisive politics. The conversation also shifts to US political violence and the legacy of figures like Donald Trump and Charlie Kirk. Beyond politics, Mike offers moving reflections on faith, navigating the grief of losing his mother, and a holistic vision of Black Wealth rooted in curiousity and community.---TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Trailer & Host Monologue (Pre-show content)01:07 Introduction of Guest: Mike Omoniyi, Founder of Common Sense Media01:59 The Origin Story: Mike’s Masters, Media Monopolies, and starting Common Sense Network03:57 Mike’s Political and Educational Background: From Youth Council to TEDx Speaker05:56 The State of UK Politics: Far-Right Rise and Navigating Division as the Black Community07:54 Polarisation and Algorithms: Why are we more divided than ever?09:16 Dissecting Nigel Farage: Fraud or British Pride?12:05 The UK's Managed Decline: Growth vs. Scarcity Mindset13:15 The Migrant Issue: Focus on Cost of Living and Low Wages14:38 The Country's Biggest Problem: Cost of Living and Low Wages15:10 Playing Devil's Advocate: How to respond to reactionary politics16:21 Black British Identity and Nationalism: Should we claim the flag?17:54 What does "Black British" mean?
