The Briefing

The Briefing returns to unpack another turbulent week in politics. We look at the mounting questions over European cohesion following recent conflicts around Monaco, Spain, border integrity and migration. And, we outline how the United States is becoming an increasingly belligerent force in transatlantic relations.

Also in the show: is the populist right consolidating or splintering? We examine Rupert Lowe’s offer of “unity” to Nigel Farage, and what it tells us about the fragmentation and possible realignment of the radical right. In addition, we ask if Reform is entering a new phase as internal tensions ans strategic pressures escalate.
