We launched Zeteo UK at London’s Barbican Centre on Monday, with special guest Zack Polanski and a fantastic live audience of 1,200 people (with more watching on our livestream). You can go behind the scenes at the launch here, and watch our amazing team in action.
We are looking forward to bringing you lots of original reporting, news, and opinion in the coming weeks, and we hope you will continue to support us as we grow.

In case you missed it, we have put together this special digest of five pieces we have published this week: a great first episode of ‘Sangita Meets’ in which Sangita Myska talks to Nadia Sawalha; Owen Jones’ take on the AI-will-kill-us-all story; Peter Oborne’s analysis of how foreign money is corrupting British politics; the first of Shehab Khan’s show, ‘The Real Question’, in which he interviews Sir Ed Davey; and Grace Blakeley’s prescription for our broken economy.
Next week, we have more exciting interviews planned – including a chance to see Mehdi and Shehab’s interview with Zack Polanski – and much more. Stay tuned!
