Episode 04: BoJo Takes (And Loses) The Wheel

from The Elucidators: Decoding Global News · host Steve Palley and Soumi Chatterjee

We had really hoped to delay our first Brexit episode to the point that Brexit failed and we wouldn't have to talk about it... but we didn't quite get there :( Thanks a lot, Boris Johnson! In this episode, we delve into BoJo's Brexit-related tricksiness vis-a-vis the British Parliament, along with the governing structures of the United Kingdom and the European Union, the status of Northern Ireland and Scotland, the connection between populism in the UK and the Great Recession, and quite a bit more.Special Bonus: an update on the goings-on in Hong Kong, where Carrie Lam desperately wants to quit her job as Head Administrator and go live her best life.
