UK foreign policy - drifting in circles

I recently enjoyed a conversation with the Multipolarity podcast during which I concluded that UK foreign policy has drifted in circles for the past two decades. Circles, because we continue to try to same old prescriptions, hoping vainly that they might work this time. And drifting, because we lack any sense of purpose and are completely dependent for our ideas on a changing cast of decision makers in Washington DC. I also delve, of course, into the parlous state of UK-Russia relations. I hope you enjoy the podcast!
