Guest on BBC show reveals behind the scenes information on 'how incredibly stupid the show' is
Dutch historian Rutger Bregman was a guest on BBC where he was planning on discussing his book Utopia for Realists.
Prior to his discussion with Andrew Neil and the panelists Michael Portillo and Alan Johnson, Bregman pre-recorded a segment where he called for younger generations to realise that the global economy needs to change. Aside from this, he argued that new ideas need to be discussed. For example, he believes that a universal basic income would eradicate poverty and that an alternate vision for Brexit - one that opposes the ERG - needs to be created.
Essentially, Britain needs to start thinking about the positives that Brexit can bring and how it won't just be a paradise for rich people. After this segment aired, the four men discussed a variety of issues including global warming, the need to move to a zero-emissions economy, and the rate of taxation in industrialised economies.But the Dutch historian presses on, saying how excited he was that dismissed ideas are suddenly being discussed
