  International maritime policy: how far can a country control the seas?

  Jul 6, 202644 min

  Most of the times, the control of the seas empowers countries, logistically and economically, as well demontrated from Iran which now controls the strait of Hormuz. To discuss this further I spoke to Dr Ian Ralby, an American lawyer specialised in maritime affairs.

  10-year anniversary: an optimistic take - The UK's Long March back to Europe?

  Jun 23, 20261h 2mS1

  On the 10th anniversary of the UK's fateful Brexit vote, I wanted to re-issue a conversation I recorded back in November 2023 with the leader of the European Movement, Dr Mike Galsworthy - a scientist, campaigner and passionate European about how we might rejoin the EU. We cover a lot of ground and we started with the impact of Brexit on science - Mike’s professional calling, before moving on to discuss the future and how Britain might think about reversing Brexit and rejoining the EU. You can follow Mike on BlueSky https://bsky.app/profile/mikegalsworthy.bsky.social The European Movement can be found here: https://www.europeanmovement.co.uk/ Check out our Bookshop.org affiliate site behindthelines and please sign up for my substack at arthursnell.substack.com and/or follow me on Bluesky @snellarthur.bsky.social.
