About this listen

 Politicians have never been under greater scrutiny, but it is important to work out whether they are mad, bad, irrational or a hostage of fate. In a special Mistakes Were Made recorded at Citywire Berlin 2022 with author and commentator John Kampfner, which came after the political expert had shared his experience of where he thinks the world is headed. In this podcast, Kampfner, who has covered political change in Europe and beyond since the 1980s, reveals what he thinks is the currently the biggest political mistake that is being lived through, while also looking at the strange impact of a 24-hour news cycle. Plus, Investor Amnesia’s Jamie Catherwood takes a closer look at how the boom in the automobile industry led a surge – and inevitable pop – in the burgeoning rubber markets of Malaysia.
