On December 12, 2019, the United Kingdom goes to the polls in an election divided and dominated by Brexit. What are the core issues dividing the Conservative, Labour, and Liberal Democrat parties, and where do they each stand on Brexit? How is Brexit affecting and intersecting traditional divides in British politics? Dr. Rob Geist Pinfold and Ambassador Shimon Stein discuss the implications of the vote, the long term consequences of Brexit, and how the UK’s volatile political environment affect Israel, the EU, and European Jews. They also examine why and how British politics are increasingly divided and less moderate than they have historically been.
