Former BBC R4 presenter, North America Editor and Europe Editor Mark Mardell joins the podcast to discuss why the idea of a European army haunts Brexiteers, if Ukraine can get their application to the European Union fast-tracked and, if they do, will their acceptance be symbolic more than anything else?
