Description: With the prospect of another potential Labour by-election defeat in Batley and Spen next month, Jeremy Gilbert joins PTO to talk about the prospect of the Labour Party facing further erosion in its support and whether the Keir Starmer project is even about winning elections or if the goal is simply to defeat and marginalise the Labour left.

Jeremy Gilbert hits the road for a musical microdose accompanying the #ACFM Trip on Folk. Connecting different strands of folk music with their various political tendencies, Jeremy looks at the communism of Woody Guthrie and the singers of the Dust Bowl era, the Vietnam protest music of Bob Dylan and the Greenwich Village scene, and the folk psychedelia of the Incredible String Band and Vashti Bunyan.

The episode includes over 40 musical examples spanning a period of around 100 years.

Owen Hatherley joins PTO to discuss a new career spanning collection of his writings, Clean Living Under Difficult Circumstances. We talked about the early 2000s blogging scene as a reaction to New Labour, Owen's writings on music and how Black Box Recorder's work seemed to anticipate the world of Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson. And finally, we talked about Owen's review of K-Punk - the collected writings of Mark Fisher - and the strange phenomenon of American leftists seeing Fisher as a "class first" social democrat, shorn of his theoretical touchstones.

What do we mean by solidarity? Keir Milburn, Nadia Idle and Jeremy Gilbert consider the real meaning of a much-used word in this unusual Trip, recorded live as part of HKW's online festival, Acid Communism: Spectres of the Counterculture.

With music from Nina Simone, The Youngbloods and The Special AKA, the gang consider the legacy of the counterculture in creating solidarity between liberation campaigns, what happened to solidarity with the emergence of identity politics in the 1980s, and how the flourishing of mutual aid during the pandemic might have a lasting impact on culture.

Music: The Youngbloods - 'Get Together' / The Specials AKA - 'Nelson Mandela' / Nina Simone - 'Revolution'
Books: Emma Dabiri - What White People Can Do Next / Jeremy Gilbert - Notes Towards a Theory of Solidarity / Rodrigo Nunes - Neither Vertical nor Horizontal: A Theory of Political Organization / Asad Haider - Mistaken Identity

#11 Ed Rooksby on reform, revolution, and socialist strategy

While it has already led to more than one million deaths, the consequences of Covid-19 go beyond just public health with 2020 experiencing the sharpest economic downturn in history. Of course much of that was intentional, with demobilisation seen as necessary to control the virus, but what are the longer term economic impacts? Will some of the old economy never return, do higher levels of public debt really matter and will Covid-19 accelerate the ascent of the rest over the West. To discuss all of that Aaron Bastani is joined by Grace Blakeley, author of 'Stolen' and  the forthcoming 'Corona Crash' with Verso Books.

The End of Free Market Capitalism? | Interview with Grace Blakeley

Ravinder Kaur joins PTO to talk about her new book, 'Brand New Nation: Capitalist Dreams and Nationalist Designs in Twenty-First-Century India'. We spoke about how in both India, and around the world ethnonationalism in alliance with domestic and international capital seeks to rebrand entire nations as attractive investment opportunities. We talked about who and what is left out of the airbrushed picture of the branded nation, why it is that nationalism and capitalist globalisation are not antithetical as was commonly supposed in the 1990s, and we also talked about how India's democratic history and self-portrayal as open and convivial is used to favourably contrast India with China, even in the era of Hindu nationalism.
