Description

Are we sleepwalking into civil war? David Betz, Professor of War in the Modern World at King’s College London, and UnHerd writer Mary Harrington discuss whether the UK may already be in the early stages of a civil war driven by political decay, economic inequality, and generational fracture. In this gripping discussion they explore class divides, generational tension, denial, and what history can teach us.
