James Schneider: Fighting for Health, Care, and Socialism

Red Medicine

In this episode James Schneider outlines a strategy for the left in Britain drawing on his new book OUR BLOC: How We Win. He argues that the left must organize an alliance of socialists in Parliament, the Labour grassroots, the trade unions and social movements.

Specifically, Schneider reflects on the severity of our current crisis, the tentative confidence of the British left and why demands around health and care are central to a 21st century socialist project.

James Schneider co-founded Momentum in 2015 and went on to serve as Jeremy Corbyn’s spokesperson and Head of Strategic Communications. He is Communications Director for Progressive International and a regular voice in the UK media.
