This is Part Two of a three-part episode. Britain is in big trouble. The country has dipped into recession, local councils are going bankrupt and trust in our politics has collapsed. Could Labour leader Keir Starter remake Britain after the next election? According to political economist, writer and author, Will Hutton, and political strategist, journalist and co-host of The Rest Is Politics podcast, Alastair Campbell, a recovery is in our own hands. For this Intelligence Squared live event on how to remake Britain, Keir Starmer himself joins Hutton, Campbell and our host, Sonia Sodha, live on stage at London's Union Chapel to discuss the future of British politics and the themes of renewal found within Hutton's book, This Time No Mistakes: How to Remake Britain, and Campbell's book, But What Can I Do? which both look to inspire a new generation of political leaders.

Podcast is great but this episode is meaningless, unstructured rambling.
I think this is the most delusional bullshit I have ever heard.
This guest is #RoseColoredGlassesSquared or maybe even to 3rd power, while vastly underestimating the power of #TribalIdentities, #ConfirmationBias & #PartisanMediaInputs. Media presents polar opposites incompatible truths that people believe implicitly. At least in the US, the people he is talking about might be the middle 10-15%. The bulk of the rest are dyed in the wool #TrueBelievers for their side, where no amount of evidence can sway their views. Even #Socrates said you couldn't change a man's mind with facts, but only with months of many discussions questioning him with curiosity until he finds his own logic errors, and even then thats a maybe.
say what you mean, Ms. Jin, don't spanning around, unfortunately the podcast does NOT answer the question ( which I'm afraid she simply can't for the very obvious reason): does Western understand China wrong?
Complete nonsense. Sexist man hating feminist spin doctor. Don't waste your time. Especially if you are looking for a balanced look at the world we live in. Sad this is getting any air time.
This is so weird to me. How can any modern pope have any other legacy other than that of protecting and hiding the church's institutionalised child abusers? These discussions of Catholic doctrine are so distasteful when it is all just a distraction from all the church's disgusting protection of abusers.
As guilty as Alex Jones is and as much of a piece of trash that he is. This production is complete bullshit. Even Alex Jones deserves better than this.
Was this episode just an excuse to attack Elon Musk? Ad hominem criticism, unfounded childhood accusations, etc.
Sherelle Jacobs is out of her gourd. Boris as the unity candidate? Libertarianism as a credible philosophy? Benefits claimants are the problem when corporations are making record profits? Insane. All I want to hear from her is how they successfully terraformed whatever planet she is living on.
nihal my all time favorite RJ enjoyed n followd him since bbc asian days( 2008 ) him n sonia deol..adil ray..anita rani..glory day...he was funny n a total gentleman in conversations...long b4 podcast era..use to download his shows using radio recorder n convert to mp3 n put it on ipod..all efforts paid off cuz he was such a fun person to listen to..just genuine human to human lively conversations..im so happy to hear him on this..he deserves awards 4 sure. legend
this guy thinks so much like me, he sounds like my twin. Perhaps we were seperated at birth, ofcourse im the COOLER one. i like to be real honest n ask questions that challenge established narratives as a skeptic in order to perhaps discover hidden truth or solve problems specially human relationships..n this kinda puts people at unease...i mean whats with fear of a fair discussion..i cherish discussion on things to improve things n solve prblms.
"Like...like....like......"
Can't we have a debate without the pantomime of motions and votes?
My coworker recommended this book to me. Very interesting interview to learn about the story behind the book before reading it.

A 5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Episode. (^^,) Ecologist Suzanne Simard shares how she discovered that trees use underground fungal networks to communicate and share resources, uprooting the idea that nature constantly competes for survival. And a very good movie is here. 👍 https://www.intelligent-trees.com/
Due to advertising will no more listen
'Islam is tolerant & progressive ' well we are seeing the shining example in afghanistan
Parenting absolutely matters.
Are you serious... The moment you listed Sweden as a country with the right balance of nationalism vs. Internationalism you lost all credibility with me.
