Boris Johnson and Brexit Britain

As Boris Johnson threatens to take Britain out of the European Union without a deal, we hear from Ros Taylor, Managing Editor the LSE’s Brexit Blog and presenter on the Remainiacs podcast about whether the country can pull back from the brink, what no-deal might mean, and how to heal the deep divisions exposed by the Brexit process. Hosts Mark Kenny and Marija Taflaga also take a look at whether there are lessons from history about the rise of China.
