Brexit: Is The Political Landscape Shifting? - with Professor Helen Thompson

Brexit: Is The Political Landscape Shifting? - with Professor Helen Thompson

Britain’s MPs are now on holidays but Boris Johnson and his cabinet are working away on their preparations for a No Deal Brexit in October.

And if it does, will it be enough to force any workable compromise? To discuss this Hugh is joined by professor of political economy at the University of Cambridge Helen Thompson, London editor Denis Staunton and deputy political editor Fiach Kelly.
