Escape from Lockdown Archive - Did we abandon Boris? - Ben Irvine
Update: 2021-10-06
Description
Alex talks to writer and philosopher Ben Irvine about his unique perspective on what he calls the Coronapanic, that Boris correctly pursued a Herd Immunity strategy in March 2020 but was abandoned by the conservative commentariat, leaving him open to attack from the socialist bureaucracies and unions, particularly the teachers. In so doing, have we allowed these interests, who could never get near power via the ballot box, to hold the country to ransom? Is Boris's heart in the right place? Find out in this fascinating conversation.
Ben Irvine is the author of numerous books, including Scapegoated Capitalism and Space to Create: A writer's view on the housing crisis. You can buy them here.
