Immigration from Mexico into the US has been a constant issue in American politics. While Trump and his wall have indeed made it around the world, much more is usually ignored about the problem.

In this episode of Jetlagged, we welcome our Mexican guest and friend Roberto to talk about Mexico and immigration, with a special eye on those less well-known aspects, such as the troubles at Mexico’s southern border and the increasing militarisation of the country by the current president.

Roberto is a political analyst at Teneo in London and has previously studied at UCL. Before that he was a political activist in Mexico.

Is Myanmar bound for prolonged turmoil?

Through this episode we invited a special guest from Yangon, Myanmar, a friend of Andrew’s while studying abroad in Hong Kong, to share his personal thoughts and experiences on the latest military coup events in Myanmar.

Tune in to hear a captivating story from a student within the confines of a state-mandated internet blackout compelled to share his story.
