As the British Conservatives head to what may be the end of 14
years in power, One Decision speaks to some of the most influential
voices from Britain's ruling party on what's gone wrong, what's
gone right, and what lies ahead for the UK and its allies in the
West. In the first of these conversations, Julia Macfarlane and
former MI6 Chief Sir Richard Dearlove speak to the longtime rising
star of the right and former Finance Minister Kwasi Kwarteng, who
oversaw a brief period of huge instability with a controversial
package of tax cuts and spending that sent the markets into
turmoil. Kwarteng reflects on the disastrous 'mini-budget' that
caused him to get sacked and ended Liz Truss's Premiership, if the
Tories will lose the upcoming elections, and how his party has
handled recent issues of racism and division in an increasingly
fractious time.
