Inflation is over 10%. It means that when people are food is very expensive, you can actually see it in your weekly online shop. The big cost for people is yes, energy bills, but they're also just paying off their home loans. Their mortgages and rent. All of that is through the roof. And so instead of trying to fight the rise, surging inflation, she just poured gasoline on it and made it the fires of inflation rage,.
Today, we’re sharing a bonus episode of Kara’s Twitter Spaces conversation recorded on Monday night. In the first part of the conversation, Kara talks to Jonathan Freedland, a British journalist and columnist for The Guardian, about the fall of Liz Truss, the rise of Rishi Sunak and the role of Rupert Murdoch’s media empire in U.K. politics.
In the second part of the episode, Kara and Freedland are joined by yet another Jonathan: Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League. The trio discusses the rise of populism and hate speech today. They cover Kanye West’s antisemitic remarks on social media and discuss Freedland’s — aka British Jonathan’s — new book, “The Escape Artist: The Man Who Broke Out of Auschwitz to Warn the World.”
