LIVE: Former UK Foreign Secretary, David Miliband: Populism, Democracy & Labour

After 14 years of Conservative rule, Britain voted on Thursday for change. But what should the world expect from a Labour government? 2024 is the year of democracy. More people than ever in history will go to the polls - 2 billion in over 60 countries. But it’s also a year of rising nationalism. With Europe at war, Trump possibly returning and Labour winning by a landslide, today we bring you an exclusive conversation with former British Foreign Secretary David Miliband. Miliband was one of the key architects of Tony Blair’s New Labour. Now as the CEO of the International Rescue Committee in New York, he has a unique perspective on global affairs across 50 countries. David is also part of the Giant Ventures advisory board. To understand what a Labour government will look like, with some predictions for geopolitics and the US election, David joined the FT’s Gillian Tett. This was recorded in mid June, before the UK election result and Biden’s debate debacle... a week is a long time in politics.
