A European view of the British General Election

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

We have a European view of the election and discuss whether Brexit has been sidelined in the debate. Goldman Sachs faces criticism for buying Venezuelan governement debt -- we hear from people who are suffering amid the country's economic crisis. And we debate whether history and historians can play a useful role in shaping Britain's foreign policy after Brexit? (Photo: EU flag flying in front of the Houses of Parliament Credit: PA Wire).
