About this episode

The episode critiques Keir Starmer's leadership of the Labour Party as serving the interests of the ruling class rather than the working class.

Keir Starmer and his leadership team do not pretend to be socialists, or even reformists. They are advocates of the status quo, establishment managerialists of a socio-economy in enduring crisis, and a foreign policy in service to British imperial interests. Like previous administrations they want to off-load the crisis onto the working classes, at home and abroad.
