About this listen
*Previously published as Bust?*
---------
Britain is facing uncertainty, threats and risk: new Prime Minister, new government, new political landscape, at home and abroad. But how much should change? And how much will change?
How To Run Britain is a plea from Robert Peston and Kishan Koria to own what's gone wrong and make courageous reforms to everything, from the way we manage the economy to how we vote. We all know that, over the past fifteen years, British living standards have stagnated, inequality between - and within - communities has grown rampant, politicians have lost credibility and the trust of the nation. Millions say they are unheard and disenfranchised, victimised even. A far-right racist minority feels entitled to riot.
But what do those problems really mean - and how do we fix them? How can politicians win the trust back from voters, from teachers, doctors, students, pensioners - all those who feel left behind by those who purport to act in their best interest?
Peston and Koria's argument is simple: first, we must interrogate everything that has gone wrong, and build solutions from there. This is not the time to shy away from the recent past, nor should we indulge in it. Instead, we should take the lessons learned over the past fifteen years and build a future-focused, strategic plan for restoring economic, political and social security to the country we know and love.
How To Run Britain is a manifesto for change in its simplest, clearest form, from the minds of two people who have seen it all.
