magazine.newstatesman.com/2026/05/17/t... A chilling and accurate read; it’s difficult to disagree with a single thing that’s been written. Sadly, few on the left actually want to be Labour voters now. Those who’ll vote Labour in Makerfield just want to shut the🚪on Reform. Understandably.

Almost everything we argue about is a substitute for the thing we should be arguing about: the immense wealth & power of an oligarchic class, which captures governments, ruins lives and wrecks the living planet. This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power.
