Episode 80,   Jan 28, 2022, 03:01 PM

In his first major UK interview since becoming Israel’s diaspora minister he talks to Michael Daventry about soaring antisemitism, the prospects for Palestinian peace and why he thinks Prime Minister Naftali Bennett is wrong to freeze his places for egalitarian prayer spaces at the Western Wall
