This week on the podcast, we asked why it’s so hard for a charismatic leftwing politician like Zohran Mamdani to get internationally famous in Europe.

This week in our newsletter, we profile the European politicians who are in with a shot (Li Andersson, Zack Polanski and Heid Reichinnek, to name a few).

This post includes loads of input from Mastodon — thanks for sending in your ideas!

Why would European politicians need to be internationally famous?

Thry actually don't need to. at all.

@Mab_813 @europeanspodcast Just fix public transport, bro.

This was still kind of funny to read the week an Italian mayor soft-launched her dethroning of Meloni campaign in the most Euro way possible. But she's not anglo-left (wouldn't be caught dead with Varoufakis... tho tbf, I expect Li Andersson won't be in the future either), nor anglo-famous. Yet. But it seems very hard for EUropean pundits to unlearn #AngloGaze
