Constantly hearing people say, 'Starmer supports a ceasefire,' while sounds positive like all UK media ignoring the context. Where was he and the government for the previous five months? Most people were killed in the first 3 months and now that there is practically nothing left to bomb in Gaza, portraying him as some sort of saint now that he is calling for a ceasefire-the bare minimum-after 30,000+ are dead and over 70,000+ are injured, just isn't the political capital the interviewer thinks it is. Moreover, the manner in which he approached the ceasefire is highly suspicious. His probable only real victory was to delay calling for one for so long while concealing UK war crimes from the official parliamentary record.

I had respect for Grace until she refused to come to terms with the fact that JC and his allies in leadership became unpopular. Having good ideas is not enough even in a Fair Voting system, especially in our unfair voting system where swing seats need to be won to form a government. Cameron backed same sex marriage, but many Left and Centre-Leftist wouldn't vote for the Conservative Party with him being leader. The refusal to address this from the UK Left prevents them from rethinking who they choose to lead their relatively popular ideas. Also, not demanding the Left puts Fair (PR) Voting at the top of their agenda is extremely self-defeating.

I worked in the Water Industry for 26 years both pre and post privatisation. There were many organisational changes in an attempt to reduce operating costs. These processes were painful for both blue and white collar workers in the industry. For example casual overtime wherever possible was reduced. Productivity payments were were revised. Voluntary and then compulsory alongside the cost savings over the 26 years I worked there. There were no easy solutions for this most essential of services. Competing factors included the need for massive capital investment in new assets, the impact of inflation on pay during the late 70s and early 80s, resistance to change, political doctrine in both government and the TU's, lack of trust between TU's and management and sometimes self interest. These problems are still ongoing with compliance, the ongoing needs for investment, openness and accountability issues and profits in a privatised industry.

And do you think that the Nazis didn't have their reasons for attacking Britain, where they felt they were perfectly justified for invading Europe and bombing England? If course they did, just as the Palestinians see the October 7th atrocities as fully justified. But civilization must win, and if this means conducting a war where there is collateral damage done to civilian populations, then so be it. Millions of civilians in Japan and Germany were killed by the Allied armies in WW2, and now these once fascist countries are democratic and civilized. Hopefully this will be a moment of truth for the Palestinians as well.

What you can do is empower local economies, reduce reliance on global supply chains, encourage resource sharing. All that kind of thing that's not really political but just common sense. It doesn't need a radical name or need be antagonistic to Left or Right. Just empowering people to manage their own needs before the profit chasing systems end up draining entire countries of resources, as is the status quo.

I wonder what Grace Blakeley thinks about American intervention in the 2nd World War in Europe? She wants to subsume all of American "intervention" into a Marxian concept of empire; will her marxist theory allow for exceptions? Apparently in her theory, Ukraine is like a weird, untraceable anomaly. Hmm, maybe a different theory would serve, or concrete history. What about American battles with Britain (an empire) before 1820 or so, did she study those? And when Americans went to Britain (for example my father, over there as a bomber pilot in 1944) to save Britain and Europe from fascism? Was all that an "intervention" on behalf of an "empire"? Whose empire? Or was that something else e, historical, gray, concrete, susceptible to uncertainty? I find Marxism intellectually boring, and shallow. I used to know a guy at Uni (Berkeley in the US) who said he thought that marxists, in order to be allowed in to debates, should be made to wear stove-pipe hats and beards. :))

In the shadow of fading freedom and democracy, where the compass of conscience seems lost and humanity's principles hang in the balance, a dire question looms: are we descending into an age of barbarism under the sway of a select few leaders? Once, Western civilization illuminated the path to liberty and prosperity, yet the stain of genocide in Gaxa now dims that beacon. The suffering of the Palestinian people is not theirs alone; it reverberates through the collective heart of humanity. Witnessing the unspeakable horrors inflicted upon civilians, particularly the most vulnerable-women, mothers, children, and toddlers-evokes a profound anguish. We are all fellow inhabitants of this shared planet, transcending notions of right and wrong. Our humanity demands that we honor and nurture it, for true happiness cannot be built upon the blood and agony of others. The yearning for freedom among Palestinians is not merely their struggle; it echoes the fundamental principles cherished by Western society. In this 21st century global village, where moral obligations transcend borders, we are duty-bound to extend care and support to one another. Palestinians must be liberated from occupation, for their aspiration for freedom resonates with the very essence of our most cherished values....

Jesus Christ himself, after his resurrection, would have become unpopular after the onslaught of abuse, smearing, character assassination and the personal persecution onslaught that greeted Jeremy Corbyn when voted overwhelmingly for by the membership of the (soon to be) largest political party membership in Europe. I'd have him back tomorrow now faced with Starmer, Streeting, Reeves, Lammy, et al.

She's an interesting background - a private secondary education followed by a few very successful years indeed at Oxford University - no wonder she presents her arguments so competently and effectively. She chooses to mention her communist grandfather but it would be enlightening to know of his reaction to her parents' decision to send her to a fee paying school. She's a very articulate advocate AGAINST the EU as well for the same sorts of reasons as the late great Tony Benn. I like listening to her because she knows how to conduct an engaging narrative. I'd love to see her appear on Modern Wisdom, Diary of a CEO and Lex Fridman podcasts - they'd ask her some very awkward questions indeed which I'm sure would bring out a more combative side of her and she'd gain a much wider audience which she so richly deserves. I think someone with as successful an academic and publishing career as Ms Blakely pulling the adhd card is the pinnacle of arrogant identitarian virtue signalling.

The key problem with socialist ideas, union power and so on, Unions are just another system of hierarchy. Socialism needs active real policy making democracy to disband the tendency to hierarchy, replacing one boss for another. Participatory democracy and disbandment of party political power with proportional representation.

What you are describing is essentially anarcho-syndicalism, which Chomsky outlines in principle in the book 'American Power and the New Mandarins', and which was tried in the NHS and worked really well but many of the medical consultants and the managers undermined it precisely because it was more effective than the fixed hierarchies that they benefitted from personally. All the best.

No Grace. You are clever enough to not get caught out promulgating an ‘excluded middle’ fallacy. Genuine conservatives (as opposed to ‘Gilded Age’ capitalists) are fully able to articulate a position in which government is able to properly regulate markets without resorting to socialist or Marxist solutions. We’ve just forgotten that there IS an alternative to both extremes.

In connection with Grace Blakeley's take on the Israeli war in Gaza: Could Ms. Blakeley comment on Britain's historic role in locking the borders of the British Mandate to Jews during the Holocaust? Can she she imagine a world in which moral responsibility has accrued to Britons -- and her -- to support the survival of a Jewish state? Israel faces an enemy sworn to annihilate the Jewish State and all Jews: does she agree with this?
