What’s Politics #8 - Anticipating 2024: Palestine, US Elections, China

What's Politics is a series where we delve into political concepts, ideas, and questions and explore how they impact all of us. 

It’s the new year. So, in this episode, we look ahead and discuss some of the key things to keep our eye on in 2024 – the ongoing genocide in Palestine, the upcoming elections in the US and the UK, as well as how China is reshaping global politics.
