The Corbyn Moment
Description
PLEASE ARRIVE AT 10 AS WE WILL BE STARTING AT 10:30 SHARP.
Corbyn’s rise has put a radical agenda centre stage. After the breakthrough in the 2017 election, we will be asking where we are now as a movement, how we deepen the crisis for the Tories, and if Labour get into office, how we move towards a transformation of society.
We can’t wait until 2022.
Join key writers, commentators and activists in a discussion of the big questions of the moment.
