Introduction

In this week’s episode, host Steve Anglesey dissects the week in politics as normal service is paused after the death of Queen Elizabeth II and, it seems, abnormal service resumes as bankers come out on top in the latest instalment of the cost-of-living crisis. Then, The New European columnist Bonnie Greer joins the podcast to discuss how, through an accident of timing, she will always be linked to King Charles, the international reaction to the death of Queen Elizabeth II and why Princess Anne is, in fact, the hero of this news cycle. Finally, Ann Widdecombe, Tom Harwood and Nigel Farage all feature in the Hall of Shame this week. Enjoyed this episode? Let us know by tweeting @TheNewEuropean.
