Weekly UKC Banter: Episode 13

Jerm, Mike, and Charles dive into the nuances of diplomacy and global relations.

More importantly, they chat about how the British Empire's influence has transformed but not vanished, noting that modern empires operate differently from historical ones. They stress that cooperation and respect are vital for positive international relations, while infrastructure development remains critical for post-colonial nations.

The legacy of colonialism continues to shape global dynamics, with visa policies reflecting underlying power dynamics between countries. Jerm, for example, asks about the relevance of visas in some countries but their irrelevance in others.

Finally, they highlight that grassroots conversations can impact global politics and that understanding history is essential to addressing current geopolitical issues.
