King Charles Shows Us How to Confront Trumpist “Populism”
EA on Al Jazeera’s Inside Story: Trump’s Quest to Break Up Europe
UPDATE, JUN£ 7: EA’s David Dunn spoke with Times Radio’s Olly Mann on Saturday afternoon about US Vice President J.D. Vance’s interference in British politics, trying to whip up division over immigration and to destabilise the UK Government.
Listen to Discussion from 8:57
David takes apart Vance’s “white nationalism” and the role of Elon Musk in the attempt to unsettle British politics and society.
It’s extraordinary. What we have here is the interference in domestic politics by a country which is supposed to be one of our closest allies.
This was the sort of thing that happened during the Cold War when the Soviet Union criticized liberal democracies.
Vance is saying that the idea of allowing any level of immigration is eroding the value of the “West”.
ORIGINAL ENTRY, JUNE 6: I joined Times Radio’s Jane Mulkerrins on Saturday to analyze how US Vice President J.D. Vance is exploiting December’s murder of Henry Nowak in Southampton, England to attack immigrants and undermine the UK’s Labour Government.
I set out the details of the murder, including the error of police in handcuffing Nowak as they failed to realize that he had been stabbed four times in the chest.
I explain how the hard-right Reform Party, allied with the Trump camp, exploited, exaggerated, and distorted the case to claim that “DEI”, anti-white discrimination, and “two-tier policing” were
responsible.
And I place this in the context of the Trumpist National Security Strategy, developed by allies of Vance, to put hard-right parties such as Reform in power across Europe.
The other guest is historian Phil Tinline.
