Alan Finlayson is back to discuss with Jem the key developments in UK politics since the last time they talked about it. Covering the Labour deputy leadership, the politics of the Budget and of immigration, the origins of Britain’s bargain-hunting austerity mindset, Starmer on Tik-Tok, the Green Party surge, whether Blue Labour actually exists, whether Your Party actually wants to be a party, the glorious triumph of of Andrea Egan (new General Secretary of Unison, the country’s biggest union) and whether Britain is in fact finally entering a pre-revolutionary phase.

(For people who come to this podcast for cultural studies, political philosophy and critical theory rather than straight commentary on UK politics – don’t worry, the Autumn drought is nearly over, and we will have plenty of of that coming for you very soon).
