138: On the state of French Politics with Alexander Hurst
Manage episode 445103921 series 2087559
It’s been several months since the President threw us into a mess by calling a snap election and in early September, months overdue, Macron finally named a prime minister. What does his choice mean for the country, and what does it signal to voters who cast their ballots for the left coalition? I speak with Alexander Hurst, a writer and columnist for The Guardian whose recent op-ed looks into what went wrong and what issues the new government inherits.
Mentioned or featured in this episode:
French politics analogy in the Guardian op-ed
Alexander's op-ed column for The Guardian
