Want to understand how Britain can pull itself out of political and economic turmoil? This weekly newsletter analyses the challenges facing the country—and what needs to be done to overcome them. The government and the opposition agree on the need, but not the methods, to break out of a 15-year economic rut. The country is still attempting to define its place in the world after Brexit.
