In this week’s episode, we put two very different figures side-by-side: Nigel Farage and Zack Polanski. From economic stagnation to the cost of living, immigration, public services and the climate crisis, we break down how each of them diagnoses Britain’s most pressing problems and what they claim they’d do to fix them.Are the country’s challenges the result of too much state interference, high taxes and weak borders, as Farage argues? Or is the real issue a failure to invest in communities, public services and a green future, as Polanski insists? We explore the political philosophies behind both approaches, how their strategies differ and what their solutions would mean in practice for the economy, society and the environment.We also discuss where their messages overlap, where they completely diverge and why each appeals to such different parts of the electorate.If you’d like to share your take on this week’s discussion, drop a comment below and don’t forget to subscribe to keep up with future episodes.
