Online talk: In Conversation with Jon Sopel | Inside Politics: From Washington to Westminster
‐
Renowned British journalist, Southampton Pro-Chancellor, alumnus, bestselling author, political insider, and presenter of the chart-topping podcast The News Agents, we are thrilled to welcome Jon Sopel back for another In Conversation event. In 2022, after eight years reporting from the heart of American politics, Jon returned to the UK to find British politics drastically transformed. During this live In Conversation event, Jon and Russell will dissect the political upheavals, societal shifts, and cultural nuances that have reshaped the political landscape on both sides of the Atlantic. With his characteristic wit and clarity, Jon will offer a personal exploration of the changes that have redefined his homeland, alongside his thoughts on 'life across the pond', including the return of President Trump to the White House. There is sure to be plenty to discuss!
