This week on the Breaking Britain podcast, we take a look at some of the parallels between political populism in the UK and states in Central and Eastern Europe. Joining us is Marcus How, who as an experienced analyst of rapidly changing states such as Austria, Hungary, Czechia or Poland has written extensively on the emergence of populist parties that have transformed the politics and geopolitics of Europe.
