Lenin Moreno has FALLEN…Ecuador at Risk of CIVIL WAR! (E801)
On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to former President of Ecuador Rafael Correa on the uprising taking place in Ecuador against President Lenin Moreno’s austerity budget, whether the violence is likely to get worse, why Moreno refuses to bring the elections forward, whether Moreno can survive the crisis and the prospect of a civil war in the country. He also discusses the persecution of Julian Assange and the hypocrisy of his imprisonment and the revelations of spying against Julian Assange and himself.
Next we speak to Julian Assange’s father, John Shipton, about his son’s condition following his visit to Belmarsh prison, growing support across the world for Assange, why the British judiciary should not follow the whim of the United States, the CIA spying on Julian Assange inside the Ecuadorian embassy and more.
Finally, we speak to Deborah Mattinson, the founder of BritainThinks and WorldThinks on the likelihood of Jeremy Corbyn repeating his 2017 general election performance against Boris Johnson, why Boris Johnson is seen in a more positive light than Corbyn in the eyes of British voters, the accuracy of polling after notoriously incorrect predictions in previous elections and more!
