With telegrams full of breaking news flying in from across the pond, Jonah Goldberg has found himself in desperate need of a good Brit whisperer. Fortunately, Cambridge man and Atlanticist Francis Dearnley has boldly stepped up to the plate, joining Jonah to discuss the ousting of Keir Starmer, the rise of Andy Burnham, progress in Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky’s “long-range sanctions,” Soviet Union collapse analogies, Russian political culture, Zelensky’s post-war political future, European views of Donald Trump and Iran, transatlantic relations, the world cup, and Oliver Cromwell’s head.
