On GPS at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. ET on CNN:
First, Fareed gives his take on the transformation of Britain's Tories.
"Britain's Conservative Party is arguably the most successful political party of the modern age," Fareed says. "But this week, we watched the beginning of the end of that party, at least as we have known it."
As Prime Minister Boris Johnson morphs Conservatives into a pro-Brexit party, the Tories no longer stand for what they once did—openness and free trade—and now represent a constituency that embraces a "closed ideology." It's yet another reminder that "we are living in an age of political revolutions," Fareed says.
Next, Fareed examines the messy politics of Brexit, whether the UK's looming elections will solve the country's problems, and what will become of Britain's political parties with a panel of Economist Editor Zanny Minton Beddoes, Evening Standard Editor and former Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne, and former UK Foreign Secretary and Labour MP David Miliband.
Our What in the World segment delves into the link between Hong Kong's school curriculum and the recent protests there; then, Israeli investigative journalist Ronen Bergman details Israel's years-long shadow war with Iran, on which he has reported recently for The New York Times.
Finally, Fareed talks with former Defense Secretary Gen. Jim Mattis about the greatest threats facing America today. | |
