Hello. I'm Michelle Hussein and for more than twenty years
I was at the BBC presiding over political debates. Welcome
to the BBC Prime Ministerial Debate, covering international news, announce
that the United States has completed its military withdrawal from
Afghanistan twenty years and reporting on some pretty famous people,
(00:23):
Ural Highness and Megan Markle. Congratulations to both. Thank you.
It was thrilling to be in the front row to
watch history unfold, even if I did have to get
up at three am most mornings. But all the time
I was delivering the headlines, I wanted to go further
than the news of the day. I wanted to talk
(00:45):
about the ideas behind it, to spend more time with
the people shaping our world. And that's what I'm doing
here on this podcast from Bloomberg Weekend. I speak with
people like, in terms of political spending, I'm going to
do a lot less in the future, and why is that?
(01:06):
I think I've done enough? Prime Minister Keir Starmer recognizing
of Palestinian state was in your manifesto. Do you want
to be the British Prime Minister who delivers that? I'm
clear on our manifesto was clear about our position on
recognition cultural figures like Succession creator Jesse Armstrong. You are
writing about that world of the super rich again, and
(01:26):
there's a sorry. Well I wondered why I believe I'm
doing it beause I'm interested in the power, not the money.
And Shonda Rhymes, how did you feel about Bridgerton being
described as woke? I didn't know anybody described it as welke.
The Telegraph called it pandering to woke casting. Well, that's
so cute. This will be a place where every weekend
(01:47):
you can count on one essential conversation to help make
sense of the world. Personal conversation. All, yeah, exactly. You
might even enjoy it, So please join me, Listen and
