Sunday School: Three's a crowd
from Quiet Riot · host Alex Andreou, Naomi Smith, Kenny Campbell
And so it came to pass that the US, in lockstep with Israel, bombed Iran, probably while you were sleeping. For this week's Sunday School, we knew it would be tough to keep up with developments in the Middle East and so we called in our tame geopolitics expert Arthur Snell, he of the wonderful Behind The Lines podcast, for a look at where things stood on the eve of Trump's decision to send in the B-2s. Who knew what and when? What’s it mean for Britain? Should we cancel holidays in Cyprus? And ... are we careering towards regime change here? Closer to home, your presenters Naomi Smith and Kenny Campbell also look at the latest data on what Brits REALLY think about getting cozier with the EU, and don their mortar boards to examine a couple of big stories that have shaken the university sector this week. "That’s the thing you've got to remember about populists… as soon as the thing that they think is popular no longer is, then they move on to the next thing" Show notes That YouGov poll on Brits and the EU Our bookshop, featuring many of the books we have mentioned, can be found at uk.bookshop.org/shop/quietriot Email us at [email protected].
