Sir Graham Watson: "There is a need to constantly renew ones thinking"
Today's guest is Sir Graham Watson, former President of the Alliance of Liberal Democrats in Europe (ALDE) and Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for the South West of England and Gibraltar (1994-2014).
In this episode, Graham discusses how the United Kingdom and European Union can innovate policy in key areas - such as health, data, and an emerging Asia - and even shares some tips for continuous learning.
Other key takeaways include:
- Most Asian countries look to the United States, rather than Europe, as the model
- The EU has to get together as a federal state if it wants to compete
- The EU wants to work closely with the UK but they’re not going to force it
- You can never invest too much in scientific research
