Summary

From Washington to Whitehall to Bristol harbour, Black Lives Matter protests are dramatically reshaping politics across the world before our eyes. Former Obama homeland security advisor and US senate counsel AMY POPE joins us to discuss what this tumultuous fortnight means for Trump, Biden, American policing and American democracy. Plus, Britain grows a spine in its dealings with China. With a No Deal Brexit looking, is Johnson storing up trouble for our free-booting free trade future? Ian Dunt and Arthur Snell join Dorian Lynskey for this week’s full-length BUNKER. “It’s hard to observe social distancing when you’re pushing a statue into a harbour.” – Dorian Lynskey “I’ve prosecuted cases across the United States and I can tell you that the problem of police brutality is endemic.” – Amy Pope “Trump isn’t interested in solutions. He’s interested in abuse.” – Arthur Snell Presented by Dorian Lynskey with Arthur Snell and Ian Dunt. Script and assistant production by Jacob Archbold. Music by Kenny Dickenson. Logo and artwork by Mark Taylor. Audio production by Alex Rees. Produced by Andrew Harrison. THE BUNKER is a Podmasters production. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
