About this episode
On this episode, Ben sits down with Deputy Editor of The Spectator World, Oliver Wiseman, to discuss the rise and fall of British Prime Minister Boris Johnson. They discuss what led to his eventual resignation, while drawing comparisons to the American political climate, from former President Trump to former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich.
Plus, drawing on the analogy of former Prime Minister Winston Churchill’s career, they discuss if there is room for a Boris Johnson comeback, as well as who Johnson’s replacement could be.
