I4C Trouble with Daly and Wallace

EP24 The Absolute State of the Union

Episode Summary

Clare and Mick conduct a post mortem on President Ursula von der Leyen's "State of the Union" address. Finally we're talking about a coordinated European COVID response, but is it too late?

And now that the Moria refugee detention camp on Lesvos has burned to the ground, the EU wants the credit for relocation. But why were those people stuck there in the first place?
