Opinion: The Real Reason Lockdown is Ending? Our Broken Economic System Has No Alternative

As Britain feigns a return to normality, it’s increasingly clear that the economy matters more to this government than human life. Aaron Bastani argues we aren’t exiting lockdown because it’s safe, but because there's no other option for our already broken economic system.

Workers Getting Screwed

Coronavirus has shone a light on hyper-exploitation in Britain’s cities. The Tories are blaming, yes you guessed it…. PC culture and immigration. Plus, Labour flip flops on tax, and Starmer scolds Russell-Moyle for criticising zionism. With Michael Walker, Ash Sarkar and Aaron Bastani.

This is a history present-day activists should take heed of, writes Bryan Knight in the third instalment of our Black Britannia series.

Opinion: Coronavirus Has Had a Devastating Impact on Mental Health, but It Didn’t Have to Be This Way

Coronavirus was always going to be difficult for people with mental health conditions, but political decisions rooted in Tory ideology have made things much worse, writes Harriet Williamson.

Opinion: From Climate to Jobs, Sunak’s Budget ‘Event’ Falls Short of the Protections We Need

Unless the government invests in creating millions of new, secure, well-paid green jobs, the ‘recovery’ from the pandemic will be even weaker – if it even comes at all. Grace Blakeley on the chancellor's underwhelming summer statement.
