This week’s Hub Dialogue Roundtable episode centres on Patrick Brown’s disqualification from the Conservative Party’s leadership race, its implications for the leadership vote, and what it might tell us more generally about how we choose party leaders in Canada.

Then, Rudyard Griffiths and Sean Speer debate Boris Johnson’s political legacy and the future of conservative policymaking in the Anglosphere in light of the ongoing political realignment of working-class voters.
