Description

James Schneider joins the show to discuss Rishi Sunak's announcement that the UK general election will take place on July 4th, and to talk about his book 'Our Bloc: How We Win' in which James argues for a left bloc - a federated alliance of socialist forces comprising social movements, unions, and the residual left in parliament. In the interview we discussed what such a left bloc could look like and how it might knit together forces with varying political commitments and traditions. We also talked about the unprecedented vacuity of Keir Starmer's political project, and James also gave his thoughts on the domestic significance of the Gaza protest movement.
