Alastair Campbell and Jacob Rees-Mogg Debate Brexit | The Mishal Husain Show

It’s 10 years since the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union. It was an enormous decision, one that has contributed to the churn of British prime ministers since, a phenomenon that has continued this week with the resignation of Keir Starmer. What effect has Brexit had on UK politics and the British economy over the last decade? This bonus episode of The Mishal Husain Show is an opportunity to reflect and look ahead. Earlier this month, Alastair Campbell, Co-Host of The Rest is Politics podcast, and Jacob Rees-Mogg, host of GB News, joined Mishal Husain in front of an audience of Bloomberg subscribers to mark the anniversary. Unsurprisingly both feel as strongly as they did in 2016. Visit https://www.bloomberg.com/mishal Only Bloomberg subscribers get access to exclusive Bloomberg events.
