Former Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis has declared that “there’s no such thing as democracy” in an interview for a new Guardian series, Radical Thinking, with senior economics commentator Aditya Chakrabortty.
Who Really Holds Power?
The opening episode asks who is really in charge: the people or the markets? In an extended conversation, Varoufakis reflects on his time during the Eurocrisis, when he came up against those seeking to block his economic reforms.
Assessing Burnham's Plans
He also gives his view on Andy Burnham’s proposals to “rewire” the UK economy. Radical Thinking is published every Saturday in the Politics Weekly feed.
