  • Summary

  • This week marks one year since we launched our first episode of Coronavirus: The Whole Story - when we had no idea what challenges lay ahead of us. In today’s episode, we speak to three UCL experts to hear about how much has changed in that time, looking specifically at government and the law. What powers have been brought in to help enforce lockdown and tackle the virus? Have they been given the correct amount of scrutiny? And, how do they compare to other coronavirus laws created by other countries? Tune in to find out.


    Guests: 

    • Prof Meg Russell, Constitution Unit, UCL Political Science
    • Prof Jeff King, UCL Laws
    • Dr Melanie Smallman, Dept of Science and Technology Studies
