Barnier, Hvaldimir and mobility

As the left scorns Macron’s PM choice, Simon Bouvier joins Andrew Mueller to consider the obstacles ahead for Michel Barnier. Plus: Monocle’s editor in chief Andrew Tuck discusses mobility, our staffers investigate the mysterious circumstances around the death of Norway’s favourite whale and we examine all the hottest looks from fashion week (no, not New York Fashion Week, the GOP’s “America First Patriotic Designer Showcase”, obviously). See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
