As the world goes into lock down in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are pleased to bring you a new series of interviews, John Anderson Direct.

Recorded live via online streaming, we are able to bring you the views of commentators and experts direct from around the world.

In this first episode John speaks to author and journalist Douglas Murray from his home in England. Since they last spoke in January the whole world has been turned upside down by COVID-19. Douglas gives us the view from Europe and they consider the impact and possible future consequences of this unfolding crisis. They also discuss the limits of globalisation, the importance of the nation state, the looming debt crisis, the implications of trade with China, the crisis of conservative politics and the late Sir Roger Scruton.
