Episode description

In the wake of the populist victories across Europe in the EU parliamentary elections I sat down with Matt Goodwin for a closer look.

How have European elites failed? Are these parties far-right or is this a smear? What does it mean for the future of the continent? And what is the truth about populism which, 8 years on from the populist year of 2016, is back and as big as ever.

We take a closer look at Nigel Farage’s Reform Party in the UK, who at the time of recording were about to leapfrog the Conservative Party in at least one poll.

What does this mean for America and the wider world?

All this and much more.

Matt Goodwin is an academic and author of the book National Populism.
