Can Burnham 'Unbreak' Britain? Rebuilding the Social Contract After Decades of Decay

How do progressive movements defeat the far right without adopting their doom-laden narrative?

In this episode of In Solidarity, Aman is joined by fellow openDemocracy investigative journalists Sian Norris and Ethan Shone to break down the recent Labour conference and how it fits into the rapidly changing political landscape in the UK.
