Lots of Analysis but no actual, doable, International agreements on how to collaborate in the best economic game. The present game is falling apart. What is the option or options? Enough clever debate with no thought out remedies. We know what the data shows (the diagnosis) yet we do not have the fortitude to pull the nations together to do the best. The hell with what the financial markets think. This needs doing and fast. If we can solve problems with A I can we not apply this to positive remedies!?

What a lot of hot air without addressing a solution. As if their job is to just talk to look good.

What is missing is the conversation around the International Financial system that has been hijacked and created for a system that bows to the captains of capital who really call the shots, and "buy" the politicians who cannot see a way for change. Possible remedies are the development of communities within communities within the ultimate community of the world, by way of collaboration rather than competition. Yes. Western "Democracy" has succumed to a Mafia all right.

OMG Harvard is not a laughing stock.. sigh. How many times does he falsely generalise to prove his point? I think hes a great subject for white people defending their white privilege. Critical essay anyone?

Irish never owned slaves. Many white Irish descendants in the United States. Eastern European migrants. This whole reparations thing is too flawed and should not be taken seriously.

Liberal reforms of homosexual wasn’t the govt the govt voted against it!

If Modi/BJP ruled India is so bad then you might as well seek asylum in one of 57 OIC countries.These 57 OIC countries would rather let people in Gaza die then accept them as refugees. You seek democracy and secular rights in India when most of the OIC countries are neither democratic nor secular.People like you makes us unite for Modi.....thanks for your service to the nation!!!I would suggest acting lessons for fake crying or glycerin for added effect.

whats that ahole doing there!?

Agreed! However where are you now on net zero?

Don’t always agree with him, but on this I do. Strongly.

What fascist gobbledegook

They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions but the path of DEI is a road straight to hell with all intended malice

He never mentions that he is part of the right-wing shady cabal based in Tufton Street London

This has been going on for a long time in the US.

Why would you be against DEI which seeks to promote the fair treatment and involvement of all people including women, older persons, ethnic minorities, disabled persons, LGBT persons and any other underrepresented people something Niall doesn't appear to be

How untrue.

Thank you Neil for the truth.

Oh boy a whine and cheese party. This is why men get a trophy wife.

People in the comments are taking this way too seriously. Boris and Mary are just having fun.

Value every word from this brilliant intelligent man. Many universities are places of indoctrination! Shameful.

Protect conservatives ...nice

This guy is an idiot

I’m so happy that people are finally paying Yanis the GOAT the attention he deserves. 🔥 Thanks to Professor Varoufakis, Mr. Varoufakis, whatever he’s going by now, for everything I’ve learned from him. This is the kind of discourse our society should be engaging in (& not even just the left, though I certainly agree with Varoufakis that the correct answers & analyses lie on the left).

Belonging to a community that has the reputation to shed maximum human blood (after Christianity) i regard his defence of his faith an intellectual treat which we hindus must learn from

Please listen to this man!

Very true. Indian here. We have a society where the so called “upper class” have to live in constant terror because the whole system is against them. When my son applied to the US universities for his masters he found it was too totalitarian and decided to go elsewhere. Now this stuff is coming via financial institutions across the globe.

Brilliant mind and articulate to educate.

He’s brilliant except when he supports Trump

No wed be better off without you.

A bad faith interview. That Demon named feminism

Uh, almost ALL the people posting here admit they HAD mental disorders, which means psychiatry certainly didn't CREATE them. How well they are at treating them is another issue entirely, but as soon as you are TAKING a drug, you are admitting you already HAVE a mental disorder, which means it did not 'create it'.

at least they applauded him

I can understand on an academic level the brilliance and importance of withering heights as a classic of English literature. I can understand the themes and the historical context of the work. But I can’t get passed how bored I am reading it. Personally it is not for me.

The crushed cardinal color was brilliantly hilarious.

As a nieve youngster I dreamt of the shared future of StarTrek where race and creed didn't matter, but there was always the Klingonz and the Romulans that didn't share the federations vision.

Who r these weirdos?

He seems to conveniently forget, that it is Christianity that forgave him for stealing a Credit Card and embarking on a Country wide spending spree. His 4 months in Prison, seems not to have taught him anything.

The U.S. seems to have scared off the deep thinking, empathetic types like Carter in our government. Congress looks more like a protracted episode of the Jerry Springer Show, rather than a bastion of contemplation and debate. Winning by any means is ultimately a losing proposition.

Every citizen of other countries thinks their government is corrupt (plus) he obviously has a liberal leaning or bias.

This is rich coming from a White privileged guy!

Every few years I come back to watch Stephen Fry and Christopher Hitchens dance beautifully in this debate. Wish Hitchens was still with us.

Oxford is the best university in the world, chum. And it is still a bastion of free thought.

Please look up Yuri Bezmenov, a KGB agent who defected to the US over 40 years ago. He warned about Marxist ideology spreading in Western academia. He also said that it would be almost impossible to eradicate this process. Now, when it is reinforced by radical Islamists, I tend to agree.

Here in Singapore where I live there are Chinese, Malays, Eurasians and Indians, and there are Christians, Buddhists, Muslims, atheists and even some Jews. We've been able to do pretty well for decades. In China during the Tang Dynasty there were also Greeks, Romans, Jews, Persians, Arabs etc. Maybe even a few Celts and Norsemen.

Hi Paul, thanks for the conversation. I have bought your book and will collect it this week from the book store. Can I ask: why have the recommendations of the public inquiry not been implemented? I do not understand. Thanks Jessica (The Netherlands)

This interview hurts to watch. She interrupted him way too much.

its sad to see Campbell celebrated in our culture. He is a big reason why the UK went to Iraq, knowing full well they didn't have WMD but wanted us to be lockstep with the US so we could get some of that oil money and weapon contracts. He is a war criminal.

Velocity of Money🎉🎉🎉

This is not intelligent at all particularly the pro side. Stupidity of the highest levels.
