Bonus: JOHN CURTICE on politics after the pandemic

<p>In a special extra edition we ask, what will our politics be like after COVID (eventually) lifts? Will we find, like in 1945, that suddenly everything has changed? <strong>John Curtice</strong>, politics professor at Strathclyde University and senior fellow at think tank <a href="https://ukandeu.ac.uk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">UK in a Changing Europe</a>, tells <strong>Naomi Smith</strong> about the new economic consensus that could emerge from the post-Corona wreckage; how Labour should differentiate themselves from the Tories in a radically changed country; and whether education, welfare and the governance of the country itself could be transformed.&nbsp;</p><ul><li>“Johnson is a meddler, an intervener, he wants to use the power of the state to get things done”&nbsp;</li><li>“Do not presume that COVID is going to change attitudes”</li><li>“The arrival of Boris Johnson as Prime Minister marked the end of the neoliberal project in Britain”</li><li>“There are plenty of centre-right voters in Scotland, they just don’t necessarily vote for the Conservatives”</li></ul><p><em>Presented by Naomi Smith.
