How To Fix...

Too much coverage of politics focuses on personalities not policies. It’s time to fix that. Join Steve Bloomfield every week for How to Fix, the new podcast from Prospect that brings you in-depth coverage of some of the most pressing issues of our time. No soundbites; no political pundits; just experts and politicians from the UK and around the world outlining the arguments and proposing genuine solutions.

…Leaving the EU

December 5, 2017 • 29 mins

Leaving the EU, despite what the Leave campaign claimed last year, is turning out to be rather complicated. We were supposed to save money—£350m a week—but now it seems we’re paying tens of billions first. We were supposed to quickly sign a trade deal with the rest of the EU—the German car manufacturer would insist on it, remember—but we haven’t even started talks about talks yet. And all those concerns about what this meant for No...

...Remaining in the EU

November 29, 2017 • 27 mins

How do you fix Brexit? Well, for a start it depends on whether you want us to leave or remain. Next week we’ll work out how to fix leaving. Today, we’re going to see if there’s a way to remain.

…Air Pollution

November 15, 2017 • 26 mins

Think of a city with an air pollution problem and, a few years ago, Beijing probably would have sprung to mind. Dense smog, citizens in face masks, this was a problem that cities like London had left behind after the Clean Air Act of 1956 dealt with the problems caused by the great Smog of 1952.

...Refugee Camps

November 8, 2017 • 22 mins

Right now, there are 65.6 million people around the world who have been forcibly displaced. That’s roughly equivalent to the population of Britain. Of those, 22.5 million are refugees. Of those, less than 200,000 were resettled last year in another country. So what about the rest? Well, many of them are in camps. We think of the refugee camp as a temporary structure. A place of tents and well-meaning aid workers in white t-shirts h...

...Sexual Harassment

October 31, 2017 • 22 mins
