Podcast special: Spectator writers, friends and foes make predictions for 2014

We’re almost at the end of 2013, so here’s our extended special of  The View from 22 podcast. We’re delighted to bring together the best of The Spectator’s family and friends to discuss their highlights of this year and predictions for 2014. This is what they had to say:

Nigel Farage on what Ukip will do next year:

‘I haven’t entered this as part of a popularity contest. I’m in this to shake the whole thing up. Ukip now has the ability to realign British politics’

Rory Sutherland on the evolution of technology :

‘The next great advances will be in psychology. All the technology in the world is no use at all unless it is along the grain of human nature. I think we’ve made a lot of mistakes there so far.’

Michael Fallon on scrapping the ‘green crap’:

We’ve looked at all the green levies on your bill and produced savings of nearly £50 for next year.
