Johnson’s Address to the Nation

Second Wave Incoming

Coronavirus cases are doubling every week. Hospital admissions are rising. And – if Britain doesn’t change course – more deaths are on the way. That was the message from the UK’s Chief Medical Officer and Chief Scientific Advisor in a live public broadcast this morning. Is it time to panic?? Plus, Labour’s online conference, the […]

Six Months of Starmer

Keir Starmer pitched left during his leadership campaign with promises to maintain the radicalism of the Corbyn years. However, since taking over as leader he has set a rather different tone. How should progressives in Britain relate to the Labour Party under Starmer’s leadership? And what leverage do we have when Starmer allies are doing […]

Lockdown Reloaded

10 million people in the UK now live under local restrictions, and a nationwide lockdown looks to be incoming. Will the government come to regret bullying us into our offices, and giving us all discounts in pubs? Plus: why no-one understands government testing figures (including Matt Hancock); Priti Patel’s War on Cocaine; Joe Biden’s Beef […]

Incompetence in Overdrive

The government promised that by the time schools re-opened the UK would have a world beating test-and-trace system. However, just as our economy is re-opening, Britain’s testing system has collapsed. Does Britain’s testing chaos make a second wave inevitable?

Born Again Brexiteer

Since becoming Labour leader Keir Starmer has avoided taking concrete positions on matters of policy. However, on one issue he’s been crystal clear: It’s time to get brexit done. It is in direct contrast to the position he took as Brexit secretary under Jeremy Corbyn. How did Starmer go from being Labour’s remainer-in-chief, to a born […]

Apocalyptic Skies

Plus, Alan Sugar wants you back in the office, Labour Friends of Israel celebrates an influx of MPs, and thousands complain after ITV airs homage to Black Lives Matter. With Michael Walker and Aaron Bastani.

The Rule of Six

From Sunday it will be illegal to meet up with a group of more than 6 people, unless your boss has told you so. Does the need for a tightening of lockdown rules show the government has lost control of covid 19? Is it sustainable to tell people they’re morally obliged to traipse into packed […]

Bust-Up or Bluster?

Boris Johnson won last year’s general election promising to implement his oven ready deal. However, less than 12 months later he’s planning to break The Withdrawal Agreement. Are the government really willing to unilaterally break a legally binding international treaty? Or is this just typical bluster from the Prime Minister? Plus, Extinction Rebellion take on […]

Homophobe for Hire

Nothing says Global Britain more than hiring an ex-Australian PM to be a trade envoy. But what about if he’s a noted misogynist, homophobe and climate sceptic? Plus, Corbyn-Coyle WhatsApp leaks and Gary Lineker enrages xenophobes. We also remember and discuss the life and work of world-renowned anthropologist David Graeber. With Michael Walker, Dalia Gebrial […]

Socialism or Extinction

Extinction Rebellion are back on the streets protesting government inaction on the climate. But it’s leadership have angered left wingers by renouncing a banner members made in support of socialism. Is their anti-political stance a dead end? Plus, as schools open the government blackmail workers back into offices, Fox News comes to the UK, and […]
