Episode description

How does the government measure the length of the lockdown and what are the geopolitcal implications of the global coronavirus outbreak?
In a sobering week, Adam Boulton and guests discuss the latest political predicaments as Prime Minister Boris Johnson continues to be treated in intensive care with Covid 19.
In his absence, how will the government map out the next phase of the response and will the consequences of the crisis result in zombie economies around the world.
Joining Adam this week are the Mail on Sunday columnist Peter Hitchens, Europe Director at The Economist Intelligence Unit Joan Hoey and Sky's political correspondent Kate McCann.
