Westminster Watch – Reeves on the Rocks
Britain's increasingly dire economic situation has dominated the headlines over the past weeks as UK government debt bonds suffer a particularly harsh sell-off and the value of Pound Sterling weakens. The blame is being laid at the door of Chancellor Rachel Reeves, who visited Beijing despite calls to stay home during a time of economic turmoil. This week Nick is joined by one of her predecessors Kwasi Kwarteng, former Chancellor under Liz Truss, veteran UK diplomat to China, Charlie Parton and legendary City of London economist, Nick Parsons, to navigate these troubled fiscal waters. Westminster Watch is broadcast out of London and presented by politician-turned-presenter Nick de Bois. From fierce debate to reflective thinking, Nick offers you the inside track on all the happenings inside the corridors of power in Westminster. Tune in every Friday at 20:30 GMT and throughout the week on TRT World. Make sure to follow us on X https://x.com/WestminsterTRT to not miss out on the best bits of Westminster Watch
