Argentina's Javier Milei has defied critics by bringing sweeping economic reform to an economy many had written off. Former MP Steve Baker — the “hard man of Brexit” — says a similarly radical free-market reform can save Britain, too. In this special edition of The Capitalist, Steve joins Marc Sidwell to launch his new project, Fighting for a Free Future.From soaring house prices to the looming pensions crisis, Steve pulls no punches: the managerial state is broken, the emperor has no clothes, and unless Britain slashes spending, abandons failed orthodoxies, and embraces liberty, we face managed decline — or worse.Britain is running out of time. Debt is spiralling, taxes are at breaking point, and politicians refuse to face the truth. This is a conversation about courage, crisis, and the bold choices we must make before it's too late.Discover more about Steve's new project: https://www.fightingforafreefuture.com/Stay informed with CapX's unmissable daily briefings from the heart of Westminster.

Donald Sassoon"Soft Power e potere politico"Festival Filosofiawww.festivalfilosofia.itFestival Filosofia, MondenaDomenica 21 settembre, ore 18:00Donald SassoonSoft power e potere politicoMercato europeo dei consumi culturali e capitalismo simbolico americanoIn che modo le pratiche di consumo culturale contribuiscono alla costruzione di valori condivisi e alla trasmissione del patrimonio? Questa lezione riflette sulla possibilità di promuovere una cultura e un mercato culturale comuni a livello europeo, interrogandosi sulla loro desiderabilità e realizzabilità nell'epoca del capitalismo simbolico.Donald Sassoon è professore emerito di Storia europea comparata presso la Queen Mary University of London. Allievo dello storico Eric Hobsbawm, è stato ricercatore e professore invitato in diverse università e istituzioni, tra cui l'Università di Innsbruck, la Maison des Sciences de l'Homme di Parigi, il Remarque Institute della New York University, l'Università del Queensland (Brisbane), il Boston College, l'Università di Trento e l'Università di Padova. Ha curato il festival “La Storia in Piazza” di Genova. Profondo conoscitore della storia europea contemporanea, ne ha indagato le trasformazioni politiche, economiche e culturali con particolare attenzione alla formazione delle identità collettive, al ruolo dei media e dell'industria culturale, alla circolazione delle idee e dei modelli politici, ai processi di costruzione della memoria storica e ai mutamenti del capitalismo globale. Ha inoltre studiato le dinamiche del consumo culturale come fattore di coesione sociale e trasmissione del patrimonio, con un interesse specifico per il confronto tra l'evoluzione della cultura europea e l'espansione del capitalismo emotivo di matrice statunitense. È considerato uno dei maggiori storici contemporanei, capace di coniugare l'analisi storica con la lettura delle crisi presenti e delle loro radici nel passato. Collabora con “Il Sole 24 Ore”. Le sue opere sono tradotte in dodici lingue e ha tenuto conferenze in più di trenta paesi. Tra i suoi libri: La cultura degli Europei. Dal 1800 a oggi (Milano 2008); Come nasce un dittatore. Le cause del trionfo di Mussolini (Milano 2010); I buoni e i cattivi nella cultura popolare (Torino 2012); Intervista immaginaria con Karl Marx (Roma 2014); Quo vadis Europa? (Roma 2014); Brexit.Buona fortuna, Europa (Roma 2017); L'alba della contemporaneità. La formazione del mondo moderno, 1860-1914 (Padova 2019); Sintomi morbosi. Nella nostra storia di ieri i segnali della crisi di oggi (Milano 2019); Il trionfo ansioso. Storia globale del capitalismo (Milano 2022); Rivoluzioni. Quando i popoli cambiano la storia (Milano 2024).Donald Sassoon"Rivoluzioni"Quando i popoli cambiano la storiaGarzanti Editorewww.garzanti.itQuando parliamo di rivoluzioni spesso ci riferiamo a singoli eventi, come la presa della Bastiglia o l'assalto al Palazzo d'inverno. Ma in realtà ci vogliono decenni perché una rivoluzione si sviluppi e si esaurisca – sempre che ciò accada. In questo libro Donald Sassoon ripercorre in modo inedito e coinvolgente alcune tra le rivoluzioni più celebri: la guerra civile inglese, che cominciò con l'uccisione di Carlo i e dopo quasi un secolo turbolento diede luogo alla monarchia costituzionale; la guerra d'indipendenza americana, che cacciò i britannici ma non affrontò il problema della schiavitù; la rivoluzione francese, cui dobbiamo la Dichiarazione dei diritti dell'uomo, ma anche lunghi anni di instabilità; le rivoluzioni nazionali che unificarono Italia e Germania; la rivoluzione russa e la rivoluzione cinese, che hanno cambiato il corso del xx secolo. Brillante resoconto degli sconvolgimenti politici che hanno fatto la storia, "Rivoluzioni" è anche un libro ricco di ironia: scopriremo che Yankee Doodle Dandy fu cantato per la prima volta dai soldati inglesi per prendere in giro gli arruffati colonialisti americani, e che la parola «rivoluzione» è diventata d'uso comune proprio quando abbiamo smesso di capire esattamente cosa significhi.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

[SPONSORISÉ] « Mourir pour des idées, d'accord, mais de mort lente », chantait Georges Brassens. Mais pour la députée britannique Jo Cox, la sentence fut brutale. Trois coups de feu suffirent à éteindre ses convictions. Le 16 juin 2016, elle est sauvagement assassinée en pleine rue devant plusieurs témoins. Un crime survenu à seulement quelques jours du référendum sur le Brexit, et presque allégorie de la cristallisation politique du pays que ces débats entraînent. Jo Cox, la travailliste engagée pour le maintien du Royaume-Uni dans l'Union Européenne et l'ouverture du pays à l'immigration, tuée par Thomas Mair, adepte de théories suprémacistes blanches et ultra-nationalistes.En juin 2016, Helen Joanne Cox dite Jo, est députée travailliste depuis un peu plus d'un an, élue dans la circonscription de Batley and Spen, dans le West Yorkshire, sa région natale. Elle a 41 ans et un parcours impressionnant. Née au sein d'une famille modeste, elle se hisse jusqu'aux bancs de la prestigieuse Université de Cambridge et raconte ses difficultés à s'intégrer auprès de camarades issus de classes sociales supérieures. Pas à pas, elle solidifie son engagement politique, jusqu'à son arrivée à la Chambre des Communes en 2015. Très vite, son quotidien vogue au rythme des débats sur le Brexit.

From the battlefields of Algiers to the corridors of Westminster, Britain's uneasy relationship with Europe has been shaped by thinkers, politicians, financiers, and strategists. In his new book, Between the Waves, the New Statesman's editor Tom McTague traces a previously uncovered history spanning eight decades of how Britain came to say “no” to Europe.LISTEN AD-FREE:

David Frost had been at the heart of the UK Government and was deeply involved in seminal moments in British history including the Brexit negotiations and the Covid crisis. A deeply principled man, he quit the government over his opposition to further Covid restrictions and said subsequently that he believes that lockdowns are a serious policy error. In this special interview, he addressed in-depth the Covid crisis and the real reasons for the government's response to it, the use of behavioural psychology, the relationship of the government to the UK media, Brexit, the green agenda, free speech and the online harms bill. We also spoke about the Church of England and its failure to take the opportunity to offer hope in the midst of fear. Lord Frost ended this discussion with an exhortation to the Church to remember its true identity and to stop aping secular politicians.Daniel and Jamie also reflected upon the discussion with Lord Frost and caught up on the notable news for the second week of February 2022: the ending of Covid restrictions in England, the Church of England bishops' plans to alter the nature of the Church by creating bishops for certain issues such as Brexit and Covid, and Justin Welby's comments on the moral imperative to embrace radical collectivism.Subscribe to Jamie's blog Good Things! Buy Jamie's Book!

À cinq jours de la journée de blocage du 10 septembre, le journal Les Echos annonce qu'à Bercy, la direction du Trésor réfléchit à la création d'un fonds de réassurance garanti par l'État pour couvrir les dégâts des émeutes. Pour Arlette Chabot, il n'y aura peut-être plus de gouvernement lundi soir et on aura peut-être un sursis. C'est la rentrée des classes. On va parler des smartphones et de leurs effets sur nos vies. Élisabeth Borne, ministre de l'Éducation nationale, expliquait qu'il y avait un enjeu de santé publique, de santé mentale. D'après Dominique Seux, l'utilisation de nos téléphones génère une baisse de productivité et cela coûte dix milliards par an. Une des raisons du Brexit, c'était le refus de l'immigration. Depuis, les Anglais se sont rapprochés à nouveau des lignes européennes. Mais la lutte contre l'immigration est restée. Selon Isabelle Lasserre, l'immigration est devenue le problème numéro un au Royaume-Uni.

What keeps the socialist temptation alive—and why does it resonate with younger Americans?On this week's Let People Prosper Show, I interview Iain Murray, Vice President for Strategy at the Competitive Enterprise Institute. Iain is one of the sharpest voices in the movement for economic liberty, directing CEI's Center for Economic Freedom and shaping the debate on labor, trade, energy, and beyond.We discuss his journey from the UK to the US, his time as a civil servant under heavy bureaucracy, and his work at CEI to expose the hidden costs of “regulatory dark matter.” We also dive into his book The Socialist Temptation, unpacking why socialism still attracts voters—and how free markets can win the argument with better storytelling. Along the way, we tackle Brexit, trade, environmental stewardship, and the battle of values driving today's political realignment.For more insights, visit vanceginn.com.

 Say No To Farage. Probably more than any other politician in Britain Nigel Farage was responsible for winning the vote on Brexit in 2016. He exploited racism and anti-migrant sentiment winning new converts over to an English centred- jingoistic view of the world. The dangers of Farage's xenophobic beliefs are evident daily across the British news media. Every day attacks increase on refugees and migrants.Farage has also exploited the divisions within the British Conservative Party. Theresa May and Boris Johnson said they were for completely cutting Britain from all its legal and legislative connections and treaty obligations with Europe. One of these is the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). The ECHR was incorporated into the law of the North as an integral part of the Good Friday Agreement. It was written into the Agreement as a way of protecting equality and human rights and preventing any return to the discriminatory and sectarian policies implemented under the Stormont Regime.Farage has now made the withdrawal of Britain from the ECHR a major plank of his political programme for the next British general election. As the right in Britain become ever more strident Farage has set his sights, very publicly, on renegotiating the Good Friday Agreement and clearing the way to extricate Britain from the ECHR. Padraic Fiacc – A Belfast PoetPadraic Fiacc (born Patrick Joseph O'Connor) died six years ago at the age of 94. Several weeks ago a Blue Plaque was unveiled on the wall of the Falls Road Library, close to his birthplace, in memory of this redoubtable Belfast poet.His writing is not as well-known as other poets but his poems stand out for their stark language and brutal rawness, especially when he writes about the conflict. Michael and Brid McKernon, brother and sister, have been campaigning for almost twenty-five years to have Padraic Fiacc, formally recognised and accepted as an outstanding poet of his time. They believe the recent unveiling of the Ulster History Circle Blue Plaque, is a significant step in that direction. Chieftain's Walk, Doire 14th of September. 

Ireland is making an aggressive play to strengthen its ties with the West Coast. IDA Ireland—the nation's foreign investment agency—has launched a trade mission aimed at securing €250 billion (about $300 billion) in new capital and creating 75,000 jobs over the next five years. Already, a West Coast company opens or expands in Ireland every month, with Apple, Google, Anthropic, and Microsoft among the major investors. Scott McGrew sits down with Ivan Houlihan of IDA Ireland to talk about Ireland's evolving industries, the impact of Brexit, why U.S. tech companies keep choosing Ireland, and how the country is balancing record foreign investment with challenges like housing.

C'est un scandale qui déstabilise l'Italie. Il y est question de photos de femmes volées, dévoyées, sur des sites pornographiques avec commentaires dégradants à l'appui.

La City entre finance et archaïsme Cinq ans après le Brexit, l'hémorragie prévue à la City de Londres n'a pas eu lieu. Certes, une partie des activités s'est relocalisée en Europe, en France et en Allemagne, mais la City reste la première place financière du continent et la troisième dans le monde. Symbole de la puissance économique du pays, elle concentre 12 % des recettes fiscales du Royaume-Uni. Mais derrière la modernité des tours de verre, se cache une autorité locale, la City Corporation, dont le mode de gouvernance est particulièrement archaïque. Marie Billon.

Seamus Murphy is an Irish photographer and filmmaker who has spent decades documenting life in some of the world's most challenging places—from Taliban-controlled Afghanistan to Nigeria's Boko Haram territories. Having left recession-era Ireland in the 1980s to teach himself photography in American darkrooms, Murphy has become that rare artist who moves seamlessly between conflict zones and recording studios, creating books of Afghan women's poetry while directing music videos that anticipated Brexit. Tyler and Seamus discuss the optimistic case for Afghanistan, his biggest fear when visiting any conflict zone, how photography has shaped perceptions of Afghanistan, why Russia reminded him of pre-Celtic Tiger Ireland, how the Catholic Church's influence collapsed so suddenly in Ireland, why he left Ireland in the 1980s, what shapes Americans impression of Ireland, living part-time in Kolkata and what the future holds for that “slightly dying” but culturally vibrant city, his near-death encounters with Boko Haram in Nigeria, the visual similarities between Michigan and Russia, working with PJ Harvey on Let England Shake and their travels to Kosovo and Afghanistan together, his upcoming film about an Afghan family he's documented for thirty years, and more.

Interesting, informative, and entertaining article by Chris Stokes, who has over half a decade of using EVs on the Irish roads now. We asked him all the usual questions, what worked, what didn't, would you did it all over again, his answers are considered and thoughtful. If you would like to share your experiences of using an EV them drop us a line, and we would be happy to feature further perspectives on Ireland's journey to a greener driving experience. EVs the pros and cons I bought my 1st ev in 2019, which maybe just about qualifies me for the status of 'early adopter'. Being a middle aged man that kind of kudos is important to me, more so than any other possible advantage that might accrue from owning a reasonably nice car. And reasonably nice covers it quite well. It was a 2nd hand e-golf, less than a year old and I brought it in from the UK. I was never a car guy and this was the most i had ever spent on one. There were a few reasons why I decided to go for an EV and at this time. Mostly my old diesel ford focus had started to throw random bills at me as it entered into its twilight years. I could see the writing on the wall, it was going to break down some where inconvenient at some point. I'm of the opinion that if you need a car then this is the only good reason to change it - financially, environmentally, the best option is no car followed by drive your car until it dies. Not knowing much about cars, being cautious when spending money and being the kind of person that researches to the point of internet rabbit holes, I did fair amount of reading. Eventually I was convinced, or had convinced myself, that electric was the way forward. Electric motors are relatively simple and efficient things, far less likely to break then their petrol or engine equivalents. Less things to break, less things to service. Electric cars are cheaper to run (if you can charge at home). They are quieter, more comfortable. They tend to come with far more technology and addons compared to their ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) equivalents. And they do have less of an impact on the environment, every serious study I have read backs this up. They are not 'good' for the environment. They are 'less bad'. After about 12months of reading various forums and being told that my steering links would soon fail on my ford focus, I found a car. At this time (2019) there wasn't a lot of choice at my price point. The second hand market basically came down to a Nissan Leaf, a Hyundai Ioniq or a VW e-golf. The Leaf had Chademo charging architecture, a dying standard that would (is) becomingly harder to find so making public charging even more difficult (similar to buying a beta max video player back in the day). The Ioniq didn't look like it would take my bike rack very well (an all glass lid on the boot). So by default it was e-golf or nothing. I was fortunate in that VRT on cars purchased in the UK was not a thing - this changed in 2021 with the implementation of Brexit. So I got a good deal in the UK, and drove home, my first all electric trip being from Milton Keynes to Holyhead, around 400km on a 200km range car. And it was great. I had lots of time, I had extensively researched charging in the UK and had a number of possible stops lined up to allow for any unforeseens. I glided home, enjoying all the things that weren't in a 15 year old diesel (navigation, spotify, cruise control, lane assist, instant heat….) And when I got to the ferry they waved me to the front of the queue so I could drive in and charge my car on board (for free!). It was like I had joined some kind of exclusive club where i was just a little bit better than everyone else. Smug. I kept the e-golf for 18months and it might still be the best car I ever had. Solid like a VW golf is (was?) renowned for, everything worked. But the range. 200km. We're a one car family. We have relatives either end of the country. With a small child. It was manageable but more range is nice… I traded in ...

When it comes to the economy, the news can feel overwhelming. One day it's good, the next day it's doom and gloom.

Globalization is dying, maybe even dead. Borders are back, baby. That's the message in Jonn Elledge's sparkling Brief History of the World in 47 Borders. In this romp around world history , Elledge introduces us to 47 of the world's oddest borders including particularly weird ones in Detroit, Kaliningrad and Bolivia. So should be celebrating or mourning the rebirth of the border? Elledge is in mourning. A self-described progressive who grew up on Star Trek dreams of planetary unity, he sees nationalism's resurgence since 2016 as "quite a bad thing." He blames economic stagnation—when the pie stops growing, generous approaches to migration and distribution become much harder to sustain. I'm more sanguine. Whatever globalist bureaucrats at the UN or EU promised us, borders were never going away. As a species, we humans are agoraphobic. The Trekkies are wrong. The claustrophobia of the border is what gives us our sense of space. 1. Borders are having a political moment - The "liberal hegemony" that promised borderless globalization has been collapsing since 2016 (Brexit, Trump), making nationalism and territorial division the dominant political force again.2. Economic stagnation drives border obsession - When economies aren't growing and people aren't getting richer, generous policies on migration and wealth distribution become much harder to sustain politically.3. Maps shape leaders' minds - Trump's fixation on his Oval Office Ukraine map shows how visual representations of territory directly influence foreign policy decisions and geopolitical thinking.4. Most "historic" borders are recent inventions - What we assume are natural, ancient boundaries (like the Berlin Wall, Bangladesh, or even Germany's division) are often just decades old, showing how arbitrary our sense of "normal" geography really is.5. Borders create unexpected consequences - From Bolivia maintaining a navy despite being landlocked to Detroit's expansion bankrupting the city, where you draw lines has profound, often unintended effects on politics, economics, and culture for generations.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

What if the great 'what if' moments of recent British history had turned out differently? Ed Balls and George Osborne dive into the political sliding doors that could have rewritten the last three decades. They debate whether Margaret Thatcher would have won the 1992 election if she hadn't been ousted, and how her legacy would have been transformed.Ed gives a behind-the-scenes account of the Blair-Brown transition and the so-called 'Curry House Plot', considering how Labour would have handled the 2008 financial crisis with Tony Blair still in No. 10. Then, the pair explore the huge question of whether Britain joining the Euro would have prevented Brexit, or simply led to a catastrophic economic crash.Plus, George reveals why he jumped for joy when Ed Miliband beat his brother David for the Labour leadership, and they discuss whether the result of that contest sealed Labour's fate in 2015.To get episodes early and ad-free, join Political Currency Gold or the Kitchen Cabinet:

En mayor o en menor medida todos los Gobiernos europeos se enfrentan al crecimiento en las encuestas de partidos identitarios y populistas. No hay ningún país que se escape a esa tendencia. Tanto el populismo de izquierda como el de derecha atraviesan un periodo dorado, especialmente entre los votantes más jóvenes. Pero hay una excepción a esta norma de edad: el Reino Unido, donde sucede todo lo contrario. Allí son los votantes más mayores, esencialmente los pensionistas, sobre quienes se sustenta este crecimiento sostenido de partidos como Reform UK en la derecha o Your Party en la izquierda, una nueva formación política que el anterior líder de los laboristas, Jeremy Corbyn acaba de fundar para pelear a Keir Starmer el voto más escorado a la izquierda. En el caso del Reino Unido llueve, en cierto modo, sobre mojado. Ya en el referéndum del Brexit hace casi diez años quienes decantaron el resultado final fueron precisamente los jubilados, mientras la población más joven votaba mayoritariamente por permanecer en la Unión Europea. Esa radicalización política de los pensionistas no ha hecho más que acrecentarse en los últimos años. Tanto las manifestaciones de la extrema derecha como las de la extrema izquierda están llenas de jubilados y son también muchos jubilados quienes detiene la policía por protagonizar altercados. En las protestas contra la guerra de Gaza, por ejemplo, aproximadamente la mitad de los detenidos son mayores de 60 años, algunos de ellos incluso han sido acusados de terrorismo por la fiscalía. El peso electoral de los pensionistas es cada vez mayor ya que la sociedad británica es una de las más envejecidas del mundo. La edad media en el Reino Unido es de más de 40 años y hay más mayores de 65 años que menores de 15, pero los primeros votan y los segundos no. Esto tiene consecuencias directas en las elecciones. En las últimas Keir Starmer ganó con un ajustado 32% de los votos pero, gracias al sistema electoral, consiguió una cómoda mayoría absoluta. Eso sí, todo indica que una carambola como esta no volvería a repetirse de celebrarse hoy las elecciones. Quien se lo llevaría todo sería Nigel Farage y Reform UK. Las encuestas más recientes le dan aproximadamente un tercio de los votos al mismo tiempo que hunden (aún más) a los conservadores y a los laboristas. Faltan aún casi cuatro años para las próximas elecciones y Starmer se muestra relativamente tranquilo y confiado, pero si la tendencia se afianza puede ir despidiéndose ya de revalidar el cargo. Fácil no lo tiene. La situación económica es comprometida, no ha regresado el crecimiento que prometió hace un año y cunde el desánimo. Es en ese ambiente en el que Farage está pescando y donde Corbyn quiere hacer lo propio. Your Party ha empezado a aparecer ya en las encuestas y algunas le adjudican hasta un 15% de intención de voto. En ambos casos el principal empuje son el grupo de edad que se sitúa por encima de los 60 años, mientras los jóvenes y los británicos de mediana edad se muestran más moderados en sus preferencias políticas, justo lo contrario de lo que está sucediendo en el resto de Europa. Para hablar de este tema vuelve, desde el corazón de Inglaterra, Andrea a La ContraCrónica. Entre ambos trataremos de desentrañar las razones de esta particularidad británica que tiene a los sociólogos un tanto confusos. · Canal de Telegram: https://t.me/lacontracronica · “Contra la Revolución Francesa”… https://amzn.to/4aF0LpZ · “Hispanos.

Nigel Farage and Reform UK have dominated the summer political agenda with radical immigration proposals: leaving the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), repealing the Human Rights Act, and suspending the Refugee Convention. But are these policies legally possible – and politically effective?In this episode of Whitehall Sources, Calum Macdonald, Kirsty Buchanan and Jo Tanner break down:Farage's immigration plan and whether he's shaping or simply riding public opinion.Why Labour's response has been so weak – and whether Keir Starmer risks being outflanked on immigration.The Tory dilemma: can Kemi Badenoch or others reclaim ground after years of failure?Rachel Reeves' controversial proposal to slap National Insurance on landlords' rental income – will it fix the £50bn black hole or just squeeze tenants?No.10 turmoil: Starmer's shake-up of his top team, Treasury distrust, and growing Downing Street dysfunction.We also hear why Kirsty Allsopp thinks Reeves is "running the economy like Baldrick," and why some insiders fear the government could collapse if the Autumn Budget goes wrong.

Summer is coming to an end on Planet Normal! So in our final installment of our "best of the rocket" series, our co-pilots take a look back at another two of their most explosive voyages on the rocket of right thinking from the year so far.In May, after Keir Starmer's EU 'reset', Allison and Liam invited Lord David Frost on to the rocket. The former diplomat and Boris Johnson's chief Brexit negotiator, now a Conservative peer, discussed Starmer's efforts to bring post-Brexit Britain closer to the EU.Also in May, Liam spoke to Andrew Doyle, playwright, journalist, satirist, and creator of social media star Titania McGrath. Andrew, who recently published The End of Woke, discussed why he'd returned to the "culture wars" after vowing his previous book, The New Puritans, would be his last word on the subject.Read more from Liam: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/authors/liam-halligan/ |Read more from Allison: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/authors/a/ak-ao/allison-pearson/ |Need help subscribing or reviewing?

Het hield de gemoederen in het Verenigd Koninkrijk de hele zomer bezig, de asielhotels. Britten willen dat er een einde komt aan de tijdelijke opvang van tienduizenden asielzoekers in de zogenoemde asielhotels. Afgelopen weekend vonden er massademonstraties en tegendemonstraties plaats, men hield rekening dat het grimmig kon worden en zou escaleren. Die uitbarsting kwam er gelukkig niet, maar migratie staat wel weer bovenaan de politieke agenda en dreigt de regering van Keir Starmer te gaan definiëren. Ook in deze aflevering 'Brits stel huurt nieuwe woning'. Op zich geen groot nieuws, helemaal geen nieuws eigenlijk, tenzij het stel de kroonprins en zijn gezin is. En helemaal wanneer Prins William en zijn wederhelft niet voor een paleis kiezen, maar voor een relatief eenvoudige optrek buiten Londen. Geeft dit ook een beetje een beeld hoe Prins William zich wil profileren als aankomend staatshoofd? Over Van Bekhovens Britten In van Bekhovens Britten praten Lia van Bekhoven en Connor Clerx elke week over de grootste nieuwsonderwerpen en de belangrijkste ontwikkelingen in het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Van Brexit naar binnenlandse politiek, van de Royals tot de tabloids. Waarom fascineert het VK Nederlanders meer dan zo veel andere Europese landen? Welke rol speelt het vooralsnog Verenigd Koninkrijk in Europa, nu het woord Brexit uit het Britse leven lijkt verbannen, maar de gevolgen van de beslissing om uit de EU te stappen iedere dag duidelijker worden? De Britse monarchie, en daarmee de staat, staat voor grote veranderingen na de dood van Queen Elisabeth en de kroning van haar zoon Charles. De populariteit van het Koningshuis staat op een dieptepunt. Hoe verandert de Britse monarchie onder koning Charles, en welke gevolgen heeft dat voor de Gemenebest? In Van Bekhovens Britten analyseren Lia en Connor een Koninkrijk met tanende welvaart, invloed en macht. De Conservatieve Partij leverde veertien jaar op rij de premier, maar nu heeft Labour onder Keir Starmer de teugels in handen. Hoe ziet het VK er onder Keir Starmer uit? En hoe gaan de ‘gewone’ Britten, voor zover die bestaan, daar mee om? Al deze vragen en meer komen aan bod in Van Bekhovens Britten. Een kritische blik op het Verenigd Koninkrijk, waar het een race tussen Noord-Ierland en Schotland lijkt te worden wie zich het eerst af kan scheiden van het VK. Hoe lang blijft het Koninkrijk verenigd? Na ruim 45 jaar onder de Britten heeft Lia van Bekhoven een unieke kijk op het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Als inwoner, maar zeker geen anglofiel, heeft ze een scherpe blik op het nieuws, de politiek, de monarchie en het dagelijkse leven aan de overkant van de Noordzee. Elke woensdag krijg je een nieuwe podcast over het leven van Van Bekhovens Britten in je podcastapp. Scherpe analyses, diepgang waar op de radio geen tijd voor is en een flinke portie humor.

When, under Jeremy Corbyn's leadership, they won the lowest number of seats since 1935? Steve's guest, Chris Williamson, brings an insider's view to the story. Chris is a former MP and shadow minister for UK's Labour Party. He's currently deputy leader of the Workers Party of Britain, and hosts a show, Palestine Declassified, that has the notable honor of being banned by YouTube. Chris describes some strategic missteps within the Labour Party under Corbyn and others. He criticizes the adoption of neoliberal policies, like the fiscal credibility rule, and Corbyn's ambiguity on Brexit. The Zionist lobby leapt on their support for Palestine; charges of antisemitism hit their target. “Unfortunately, Jeremy gave it legs by continually apologizing. And as I said to him at the time, ‘Every apology you make and every concession you give is just feeding the beast and making it stronger. Ultimately they're going to come for you and destroy this project.' And they did. I mean, that's what really killed the Corbyn project. It was the antisemitism thing. I mean, what finished it off. What delivered the coup-de-grace, of course, was the commitment to a second referendum on Brexit.” Chris also recounts his own experience as a victim of coordinated attacks which led to his being ousted from the Labour Party. Throughout the conversation, Steve and Chris continuously pound the MMT message, reminding us that the UK, like the US, is not constrained by lack of money!Chris Williamson is a former member of Parliament and shadow minister for the Labour Party, currently deputy leader of the Workers Party of Britain.@DerbyChrisW on X Follow Palestine Declassified https://www.presstv.ir/Section/150108

A bracing corrective to predictions of the European Union's decline, by a leading historian of modern Europe Is the European Union in decline? Recent history, from the debt and migration crises to Brexit, has led many observers to argue that the EU's best days are behind it. Over the past decade, right-wing populists have come to power in Poland, Hungary, and beyond—many of them winning elections using strident anti-EU rhetoric. At the same time, Russia poses a continuing military threat, and the rise of Asia has challenged the EU's economic power. But in Embattled Europe: A Progressive Alternative (Princeton UP, 2021), renowned European historian Konrad Jarausch counters the prevailing pessimistic narrative of European obsolescence with a rousing yet realistic defense of the continent—one grounded in a fresh account of its post–1989 history and an intimate understanding of its twentieth-century horrors. An engaging narrative and probing analysis, Embattled Europe tells the story of how the EU emerged as a model of democratic governance and balanced economic growth, adapting to changing times while retaining its value system. The book describes the EU's admirable approach to the environment, social welfare, immigration, and global competitiveness. And it presents underappreciated European success stories—including Denmark's transition to a green economy, Sweden's restructuring of its welfare state, and Poland's economic miracle. Embattled Europe makes a powerful case that Europe—with its peaceful foreign policy, social welfare solidarity, and environmental protection—offers the best progressive alternative to the military adventurism and rampant inequality of plutocratic capitalism and right-wing authoritarianism.

They explore the effects of recent retail earnings, the impact of tariffs on companies like Walmart and Target, and the evolving job market. The conversation shifts to international economic issues, including interest rates in Europe and the UK's post-Brexit economic challenges. The Fed's monetary policy and its potential consequences are also examined. The episode concludes with a discussion on investment opportunities, energy inflation, the potential risks of stable coins, and the future of AI. Sopp provides insights into Current's growth, consumer behavior, and how the company leverages technology to better serve its customers. Show Notes Where's Mamadou?

When the Soviet Union collapsed, Frances Fukuyama famously declared that we had reached the “end of history.” He meant that the big arguments, the major ideological struggles, were now all in the past, and that liberal democracy would prevail from then on. The rest would be just cordial arguments about policy. That peaceful kingdom has obviously not come to pass. Some might argue that Fukuyama's core thesis is still true. Liberal democracy lacks a coherent, universal rival. No alternative ideology has matched its global appeal or institutional resilience. Even authoritarian regimes adopt democratic trappings (e.g., elections in Russia) to gain legitimacy, implicitly acknowledging liberal democracy's normative power. That said, Fukuyama clearly underestimated internal challenges within democracies—polarization, disinformation, and inequality—evident in events like the U.S. Capitol riot or Brexit. These weaken the system's appeal and stability. While history may not have “ended,” liberal democracy remains a dominant, yet contested, paradigm. Its triumph is neither inevitable nor complete, as cultural, economic, and political forces continue to shape ideological battles globally. These are some of the issues that Hunter Baker looks at in his new book Postliberal Protestants: Baptists Between Obergefell and Christian Nationalism. And, if you're not Baptist, don't be turned off by the sub-title. Baker argues – I think convincingly – that the Southern Baptist Convention, the largest protestant denomination in the country, is in some ways a proxy for all of evangelicalism. I think he's mostly right, and that's why I think his book should be read not just by Baptists, but by all Christian leaders who want to have a role in shaping important public conversations in the 2020s and beyond. Also, Hunter Baker's argument for religious liberty – a cause long championed by Southern Baptists – is one that I think bears particular attention in this era in which we've seen a resurgence of religious intolerance both in the United States and around the world. Hunter Baker has both a law degree and a Ph.D., and he's the provost and dean of faculty at North Greenville University, in South Carolina. He is the author of four books, and you may have seen his byline at WORLD Magazine, where he is a frequent contributor to WORLD Opinions. In a spirit of full disclosure, I should also say that Hunter is a friend, someone I turn to regularly for counsel and fellowship. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. Until next time, may God bless you.
