Special relationships and special connections

The first ever EU Ambassador to the UK, João Vale de Almeida, joins Christopher Hope on this week's Chopper's Politics to talk about the new 'special relationship', how he's teaching himself why people might have voted Brexit, and reveals his past life and friendship with a certain tousle-haired Prime Minister... Plus the Minister for Loneliness, Baroness Barran, on why we shouldn't forget about young people when talking about loneliness and how she recommends volunteering to those feeling isolated.
