Rob is joined by former UK politician Rory Stewart for a discussion on the state of British politics, including government inefficiency and the rise of populism. Rory Stewart gives his take on everything from the UK's economic challenges to Trump's leadership style, drawing from his own experience in government and talks about how we could fix politics in the UK. They also discuss inequality, political communication and the many flaws in democracy and politics right now.

Rory Stewart REVEALS:

His thoughts on Trump
Why many Britons feel uncomfortable and awkward about the UK at the moment
The UK isn't in rapid decline but stagnating whilst the US grows faster
Why current inequality in Britain stems from the 1980s Thatcher-Reagan era, where privatisation without regulation or monopoly prevention allowed private companies to exploit public utilities
Why politicians deliberately lie during elections
Our current democratic system is broken
How government is exponentially more complex than even large businesses, making it nearly impossible for voters to understand its full complexity.
How the most successful disruptors in politics (like Thatcher) succeed

BEST MOMENTS

"During the second World War, our economy contracted by 45%. We were about half as rich in 1945 as we were in 1939. Where the UK is, is it's been through a phase of kind of 10, 12 years of being pretty stagnant at a moment where the US has been growing fast."

"The top three people in the US, Jeff Bezos, Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, their wealth is equivalent to the bottom 50% of the entire American population. They now have more money than 160 million American people. Thank God we haven't reached those levels yet."

"I kept saying to them, what are you doing? Right? All of you know, looking at your spending plans that you're gonna have to put up taxes and borrow more money because you've got a 70 billion pound black hole and all of them denied it all the way through the election."

"The problem in America and Britain is we never seem to get the balance right and boy has the balance gone wrong with the billionaires, they have created virtual monopolies. Think about Google, it’s got us all over a barrel."

"I don't know whether I'd go for Prime Minister again but I'd definitely like to look at doing something for the country. I think there's no job in government, no job in the world, more interesting than government that touches lives more directly."
