Description - Is Socialism Possible in Britain?: Reflections on the Corbyn Years by Andrew Murray
Is Socialism Possible in Britain? analyses Jeremy Corbyn’s tenure as Labour leader and the prospects for parliamentary socialism in a post-Corbyn Britain. Lively and insightful, it is informed by an insider’s view of the most radical period in Labour’s history.
Seconded to Corbyn’s office from Len McCluskey’s Unite in 2017, Andrew Murray witnessed the extraordinary daily bombardment of the Corbyn project by sections of the Parliamentary Labour Party and an equally hostile mainstream media. He assesses the leadership’s response to the antisemitism controversy and the dilemmas of Brexit, Keir Starmer’s stampede back to the ‘extreme centre’, and the posthumous vindication of Corbynist policies in the emergency response to covid-19.
The problems that beset Corbyn are likely to confront any similar political project. Is Socialism Possible in Britain? explores how they can be more effectively addressed in the future – a future which we must hope is not so far away.
