Trump’s UK visit: Promoting fascism as populism! (E755)

We speak to Lieutenant Colonel Anthony Shaffer on Trump’s visit to the UK and meeting the BAE Systems chair, increased tensions with Iran despite campaigning on an anti-war ticket, the Russia investigation and contacts between Trump and Russia, and the US’ support for terrorist groups and its disastrous consequences. Next we speak to Howard Beckett of Unite the Union on why Unite and many others joined the anti-Trump protests in London, anti-Semitism allegations against the Labour Party, misogyny, climate change denial, and why Unite protested Trump and not Obama’s state visit, the causes of Brexit, a potential coup against Jeremy Corbyn, and more!
