TALKING POLITICS

James Meek on Healthcare: from WHO to NHS

David talks to the writer James Meek about what the Covid crisis has revealed about how we understand healthcare and how we think about the organisations tasked with delivering it. A conversation about hospitals and community care, about Trump's America and Johnson's Britain, and about WHO and NHS. James's writing on these themes is available on the LRB website <a href="https://www.lrb.co.uk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.lrb.co.uk/</a> Amy Maxmen on Ebola, Covid and the WHO <a href="https://www.talkingpoliticspodcast.com/blog/2020/243-ebola-covid-and-the-who" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.talkingpoliticspodcast.com/blog/2020/243-ebola-covid-and-the-who</a>

Coronavirus! Climate! Brexit! Trump! Politics has never been more unpredictable, more alarming or more interesting: Talking Politics is the podcast that tries to make sense of it all. Every week David Runciman and Helen Thompson talk to the most interesting people around about the ideas and events that shape our world: from history to economics, from philosophy to fiction. What does the future hold? Can democracy survive? How crazy will it get? This is the political conversation that matters. Talking Politics is brought to you in partnership with the London Review of Books, Europe's leading magazine of books and ideas.
