Class War or Culture War?

Both

Thinking about...

I recommend three podcasts:

The Rest is Politics provides insightful commentary on UK and world politics from Rory Stewart and Alastair Campbell.

The Rest is Politics: Leading is the same pair interviewing figures from politics and elsewhere.

The Rest is Politics: US has great commentary on the US Presidential election from Anthony Scaramucci and Katty Kay.

A YouTube version is also available.
