Summary
In the wake of Viktor Orbán's election defeat in Hungary, can we draw conclusions about the limits of populism - and the chances of a recovery by the centre here in the UK? Sally, Polly, Danny and Hugo also discuss how government prepares for disaster - from foot-and-mouth disease to fuel protests to looming shortages caused by the war in Iran. And, Polly has a plan to rescue sad, empty historic buildings on our high streets. Send your comments, questions and voicenotes to [email protected] Hosted on Acast.
