Episode notes

Leave meant leave. Brexit meant Brexit. Brexit "got done". But can Brexit work?

Armando and Anoosh meet two brothers, both entrepreneurs, divided by Brexit. The family rift encapsulates the divisions between Leave and Remain camps that continue to impact British politics. Can the Baxter brothers, and the UK, come together and unite after years of division?
