141. THE ZOOM WHERE IT HAPPENS: building a digital society for all

Reasons to be Cheerful with Ed Miliband & Geoff Lloyd

Hello! Over the last few months, we’ve been more reliant on the internet than ever to work, stay in touch with each other, and educate our kids. What impact will this have on the society we build coming out of the crisis? Anett Numa explains why Estonia was better prepared than most countries for living life online. Helen Milner from the Good Things Foundations talks about how lockdown has exposed new digital divides. And we ask Stanford economist Nick Bloom about why home working is here to stay.

Plus John Bercow on life as Speaker of the House of Commons.
