The Week... We try to predict all of 2024

Two of Westminster's best-connected journalists, Sky News's Sam Coates and Politico's Jack Blanchard, usually guide us through their predictions of how British politics will play out over the next seven days, but in this episode they attempt to predict an entire year... a year that's set to be the planet's biggest ever for elections.

They start with the likely British election â looking at how Rishi Sunak and Sir Keir Starmer might play their cards, with predictions on the election date and what might happen with the Tory leadership.

Plus, Jack and Sam look at elections in the US, Taiwan, and across Europe â and how they might impact domestic politics.

And some familiar voices lend their predictions too; including Liberal Democrat leader Ed Davey, the SNP's Stephen Flynn, Sky News's Kay Burley, and Politico's Rosa Prince.

How do we retain empathy when negotiating with a stranger who has a radically different worldview to our own?

Italy’s Giorgia Meloni Charts a Path for the Far Right

Last year, Giorgia Meloni, an Italian far-right politician, became prime minister on an agenda that many feared would mark a radical turn for the country. Now, her visit to the White House last week has bolstered her credentials on the international stage.

Jason Horowitz, the Rome bureau chief for The New York Times, explains how she got here and the path she has carved out for Europe’s far-right parties.

Guest: Jason Horowitz, the Rome bureau chief for The New York Times.

Background reading:

At the White House, President Biden embraced Ms. Meloni as a friend and cast aside initial doubts that her far-right party might prove to be troublesome for Washington.
Ms. Meloni has surprised many by showing a pragmatic streak since coming to power, though some still fear an authoritarian turn.
