Description

Raf Behr talks to journalist, author and broadcaster David Aaronovitch about his recent visit to the National Conservatives conference, and what it taught him about state of the Tory party.


They discuss:


Was there really a re-alignment in British politics post-Brexit?


What do the Nat Cons have to offer us Brits apart from hardline anti-immigration vibes?


Why do some parts of the commentariat spend so much time talking about 'culture wars' when there are so many other issues to cover?


If, as expected, the next government is Labour and inherits an economic mess, will it be possible for them to make all the necessary hard decisions about taxation and spending, and stay in power?
