Analyzing a Political Document and Discussing Racism and Extremism in Politics

The man who brought you Brexit has launched his party's manifesto and complained about....Brexit.

He recognises that small business has been more squeezed, immigration has rocketed , food costs have soared - but says the answer is to let him have your vote again so they can 'do Brexit properly'.

Will voters believe him again?

Later, we discuss the French football team's intervention into their own elections back home. Kylian Mbappé - a global superstar - is calling on voters to reject far-right politics in the shape of the National Rally (Le Pen) party.

Will that influence the vote?
