Trump's Greenland Threats and London's Elections


Listen Later

In this episode of Political Business, Nathan Parsad-Wyatt and Kevin McKeever break down Donald Trump’s explosive comments on Greenland as he heads to the World Economic Forum in Davos — and what this new era of muscular US foreign policy means for the UK economy, NATO allies, and global trade.


We explore:

  • Trump’s tariff threats and the real risk to UK growth
  • What Davos 2026 reveals about power, business, and geopolitics
  • The impact on British industries like automotive manufacturing and pharmaceuticals
  • Whether the UK can survive between the US and the EU
  • Growing fractures on the UK right: Reform vs Conservatives
  • Why London politics is becoming more volatile ahead of May elections
  • The collapse of London housebuilding and why sales — not planning — are the real problem
  • What government may do next to kick-start the housing market


If you work in business, policy, or politics, this is your weekly guide to what’s really happening in Westminster.
