The Disunited Kingdom

In the second programme examining the political future of the four countries of the UK following Brexit and the local elections, Alex speaks to Jim Shannon, DUP MP for Strangford, and to Lord Wigley of Caernarfon, the former leader of Plaid Cymru. Jim Shannon reveals some surprising solidarity with his “Celtic cousins” on social and economic issues, while Lord Wigley forecasts a new independent relationship emerging post-pandemic, covering Wales, Scotland, England, and Northern Ireland.

The Disunited Kingdom
Former First Minister of Scotland Alex Salmond hosts a new political chat program, ‘The Alex Salmond Show’, on RT, where he vows to battle the mainstream media narrative and take the news “out of the Westminster nexus.” ‘The Alex Salmond Show’ will take viewers inside the Welsh, Irish and Scottish parliaments, also looking at the government of Northern Ireland, not forgetting Westminster.
