  • Summary

  • Walk and Talk with Darren McGarvey is a special podcast series dedicated to matters arising from the Coronavirus crisis. Episode 2: Everyone is up shit creek. After a decade of brutal austerity, now most people in Britain knows how it feels to need support from the state. Measures announced by the UK government have thrown out everything we previously thought about economics and state intervention. But who will pay for it all after? Is austerity 2.0 inevitable? Or will the COVID-19 crisis lead to a greater empathy for those who've been defaulting on debts for years prior to this crisis? Will it moderate stereotypes about benefit claimants? And will the relaxed welfare conditionality we see being implemented continue after the crisis has passed? If not, why? Let's talk about it!
