Description
As the COVID lockdown eases, will the blame land on ministers, scientists, advisers, Public Health England or Number Ten? What can the drama of the Brexit Parliament teach us about running the Palace of Westminster when it reconvenes – physically – for the post-COVID era? A new IfG report digs into the detail. And is America’s chaotic responsive to Coronavirus a result of the hollowing-out of US government institutions? Special guest Dan Balz of the Washington Post explains. “When there are major communications moments that affect people’s lives, the ‘dipping your toe in the water’ approach doesn’t really work.” – Alex Thomas“The Brexit Parliament really exposed the system’s weakness in dealing with major political problems.” – Joe MarshalPresented by Bronwen Maddox with Alex Thomas and Joe Marshal.
