Summary

Sunak has a brand new immigration policy which looks just like the old one. Does anyone support it? With train strikes looming and an NHS staffing crisis, looks like we’re in for another summer of discontent. In international news, following a weekend of riots across France, we ask if President Macron has lost control. Plus updates on attacks on the Westbank and the latest on Ukraine. Arthur Snell joins Alex Andreou to map out the week ahead. “Sunak’s immigration policy is headline grabbing but won’t reduce numbers.” – Arthur Snell “The Tories immigration plan is a very simple solution to a very complex problem." – Alex Andreou  “Macron's problem is he is from the elite, so he lacks a deep understanding of social problems." – Arthur Snell  www.patreon.com/bunkercast  Written and presented by Alex Andreou and Arthur Snell. Producers: Kasia Tomasiewicz and Liam Tait. Audio editor: Simon Williams. Managing editor: Jacob Jarvis. Music by Kenny Dickinson. Group Editor: Andrew Harrison.
