Much of the British political class and media don’t seem to want to touch the issue: Brexit, the elephant in the room ahead of the UK’s upcoming elections.

So, let’s take you through it: What is the state of Britain more than 4 years after leaving the EU?

Polls suggest the British are fed up with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and his conservative Tories’ 14 years in power. Fixing the cost-of-living crisis and healthcare with the NHS are top priorities for voters. And what about Brexit campaigners' promise to reduce migration?

The Labour party’s candidate, Keir Starmer, is promising change.

This week on To The Point, we ask: In a broken Britain, can a Labour government offer the UK a new start?

Our guests:

Nicolai von Ondarza is a political analyst at German Institute for International and Security Affairs.

Oliver Moody, Berlin correspondent for the British daily The Times.

Katja Hoyer, historian and author at King’s College London, via Skype from London
