What is happening to Britain?
In this episode of The Western Spirit, journalist Nicole Lampert joins Ariel Whitman for a provocative conversation about Islamic extremism, immigration, Andy Burnham, the Muslim vote, Israel, Gaza, antisemitism, the Green Party and the growing political divisions inside Britain.
Lampert explains why she believes Britain has been too reluctant to confront Islamist extremism, examines the unlikely alliance between Islamists and the radical Left, and discusses how Gaza is reshaping British politics. She also raises serious questions about Andy Burnham, Labour's relationship with Muslim voters, and where Britain could be heading next.
