Why has a mayoral race in New York sparked conversations across America about the future of the Democratic party, and the state of politics in the United States?
Zohran Mamdani, who looks set to be confirmed as the Democrat’s new candidate for the Mayor of New York, has already been labelled a ‘disruptor’ a ‘visionary’ and a ‘communist lunatic’ by Donald Trump.
Sarah, Justin and Marianna look at who he is, his politics, and what impact his victory might have beyond New York, America’s largest city.
We also speak to author (Moneyball, The Big Short) and financial journalist Michael Lewis about his new book ‘Who is Government’, about the inner workings of federal agencies in the US, about why the Democrats need to reinvent their party – and reimagine their next frontrunner.
