episode 172: Failing the global stress test?
Is Brussels’ hamfisted approach to resurrecting the European economy really a danger the EU’s own existence? Will Boris Johnson’s hospitalisation expose the flaws in his Corona policy? Where in the world is Priti Patel? And we’re joined by Fleur Anderson MP, the only Labour gain in the 2019 General Election, to look at Keir Starmer’s options to regenerate Labour – and the party’s future position on Europe. (This edition recorded before the EU stimulus deal was struck on Thur 9 April). “The EU was always going to be really terrible at Part One of this crisis. But Part Two, the reconstruction, is where the EU can come into its own.” – Alex Andreou “We are about to see something properly seismic in the world economy… If we see material deterioration in poorer economies that will be very, very bleak indeed.” – Ian Dunt Presented by Dorian Lynskey with Ian Dunt and Alex Andreou.
