What's News?

Episode 5,   Feb 09, 2023, 01:23 PM

This current affairs podcast tries to unpick all things British politics over the last couple of weeks. With an analysis of parliamentary affairs, major political events, media headlines and viral moments - we aim to make sense of this tumultuous time in politics. 

In this episode, we catch-up on the last month of UK politics, and generally what’s been happening in the UK since the new year. The strikes continue to be a major talking point in British politics, but we attempt to relate this discussion to the emerging election battleground. The strikes continue in the environment of tumultuous economic times, and Saskia explains the macro perspective on inflation. We also consider how Rishi has been rocked by a few scandals, from the sacking of Party Chairman Nadhim Zahawi to the ongoing bullying allegations surrounding his close supporter and Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab. 

If you have any questions, feedback or an idea to propose, please get in touch!
