Inequality and the Rise of MAGA - BBC Radio 5 Live Interview

In a recent interview, 'Over Here, Over There' co-host Dan Harris joined BBC Radio 5 Live host Nicky Campbell to examine the roots of political anger across the UK and US, arguing that deepening inequality and unresolved racial divisions are driving today’s populist movements. The conversation explores the long arc of America’s culture wars, the evolution of MAGA, shifting voting patterns among minority communities, and how political leaders exploit fear and grievance. They also discuss free speech, the influence of money in politics, and why recent pressure on late-night comedy shows represents a worrying threat to democratic norms.
