Peter Hennessy on our changing relationship with the world

Available for over a year

Peter Hennessy suggests the country's relationship with the 53 nations of the commonwealth is likely to become more significant following the EU referendum result. The historian also theorises about a new configuration of the United Kingdom - with areas outside London and South-East England gaining more authority through devolution of power. He calls the proceeding period “an age of uncertainty”, but suggests that there are “reasons to be cheerful”. First broadcast on A Point of View, 14 July 2016.
