About

Britain has just lived through its most turbulent decade of politics in a generation. Rory Stewart was in the room for most of it.

Former cabinet minister, diplomat, and co-host of the hugely popular podcast The Rest Is Politics, Rory has seen British political life up close: the compromises, the absurdities, the moments where it could have gone differently. Now, with the old two-party consensus fracturing and new political forces reshaping the landscape, the questions of what we stand for—and who speaks for us—have never felt more open. And Rory’s asking the biggest question of all: not just what went wrong, but what a better politics might actually look like.
