Fascinating documentary on Indian Prime Minster Modi on iPlayer and YouTube (unless you’re in India, where it’s been banned) and the extreme Hindu nationalism that is at the heart of his movement. If you don’t understand India in the 21st century you’ll get left behind. Definitely an influence on Trump and Putin’s behaviour over the last 20 years.

Yes, another Tory peer with a track record of dodgy behaviour and a peculiar habit of parroting Indian government propaganda. It’s not just Russian influence that has bought its way into our democratic system.
