As disquiet brews within Labour over cuts to welfare, and a perceived failure to pursue a progressive enough agenda, this week host Alain Tolhurst looks inside the governing party as a host of new caucuses and organised campaign groups have sprung up, and asking - who are the new tribes within Labour Who is behind them, what are their aims, and how dangerous could they be to Keir Starmer's leadership, as he faces his first major rebellion since winning office with a huge majority last year.On the panel to explain everything from the Labour Growth Group, the coastals and rural MPs, the Co-Operatives, Christian socialists, Blue Labour and a host of others are three of the finest Labour party Kremlinologists in Westminster; Sienna Rogers, deputy editor of our sister publication The House magazine and a former editor of the LabourList website, as well as Morgan Jones, journalist and another former editor of LabourList, along with Stephen Bush, associate editor of The Financial Times.To sign up for our newsletters click herePresented by Alain Tolhurst, produced by Nick Hilton and edited by Ewan Cameron for Podot

“Having moved on from Blue Labour, which other policies will Turquoise Labour adopt from the far right?"; “Given that they are a break on everything, should the Treasury department be abolished?”; “What would happen if Labour and the Conservatives got completely wiped out at the general election and the Lib Dems and Greens also had bad polling results and the Reform party suddenly lost its mojo? Could a government function or would King Charles have to step in?”Anoosh Chakelian is joined by Andrew Marr and Rachel Cunliffe to answer listener questions.Sign up to the New Statesman's daily politics newsletter: Morning Call Submit a question for a future episode: You Ask Us Hosted on Acast.

Liberalismen är döende. Ska vänstern ta dess plats eller sälla sig till de konservativa och sparka på liket? Måste vi ens göra det valet? Den socialdemokratiska idétidskriften Tiden försöker lansera postliberalismen, en konservativ tradition hämtad i en vänsterputsad tappning från brittiska Blue Labour till Sverige. I det här avsnittet gästas Apans anatomi av Flammans chefredaktör Leonidas Aretakis för att prata om vad det är i konservatismen som lockar socialdemokraterna. När övergår kritiken av liberalismen i en fascistisk illiberalism?

The one bit he can't control, the one part of reality he cannot alter, is how much people's weekly supermarket bill is, or what they pay at the gas pump. And it might be his undoing.” “The notion of a European army used to be the Brexiteers' bogeyman. And now more people believe there should be such a combined European defence force than not. In fact, support for it has doubled since 2020. So, Trump has definitely had a cohesive effect.” “There is a danger at the moment of confusing the very online Reform supporters on X with wider Reform. Actually, if you look at the shift that's allowed them to grow eight-nine points since the election, they're more moderate, more female, and don't approve of Trump or Musk.” “The working class is not some homogenous block of post-liberal anti-woke Trumpists, just like not every progressive lives in leafy North London, supports Arsenal, and studied law at a Russell Group University. I reject this kind of identity politics.” “[Blue Labour] seems to me a sort of pretend salt-of-the-earth authenticity and radicalism, while actually just appropriating small-c conservative politics of division. Women and ethnic or sexual minorities are pretty absent from their cynically drawn picture of class.” “On immigration, the median voter balances three things: compassion, control, and competence. And politicians confuse that with ‘people don't want any immigration'. It's just not true.” CALLS TO ACTION LINKS: Find out more about 1 Team 1 Fight and donate to them.

The notion of Conservative Socialism or Blue Labour would to many people seem bizarrely paradoxical. It ought to. The British Labour party has in the 83 years since George Orwell made his case for a distinctly patriotic and English version of socialism and socialist in The Lion and the Unicorn has been the party of large scale nationalization and militant leftism. Until it capitulated to the Thatcherite view of the world during the End of History and has since oscillated between its old tendencies and a sort of liberal centrism well in tune with the times and of course, the City.Too intune, too fashionable and too destructive - too European, as some would have it. The man who symbolizes that some more than anyone else is a, of all people, Labour peer in the House of Lords. Lord Maurice Glasman is a radical and a reactionary (he would surely prefer another word) all at once, advocating for a populist, conservative but most strikingly pre-French Revolution notion of politics. Arguing the country and its politics has lost itself we embark on a conversation that echoes Eric Arthur Blair's wartime cri de coeur and is sure to get everyone on the spectrum angry, frustrated - but above all, thinking.As the twenties thunder head on into the next series of crises, it's precisely the kind of conversation we want to have.Because we too, “Fucking hate the French revolution” and the clichés of right-left politics we still wrestle with every day.

This episode discusses the work of British philosopher Bernard Crick, with a particular focus on is his seminal essay “In Defence of Politics.” In clear prose and with sharp insight, Crick sets out a definition of politics and an account of why and how politics is essential not simply to survive but to thrive. Community organizers, alongside many others, have turned to Crick's essay again and again to explain the meaning, purpose, and character of democratic politics.I discuss Crick's political philosophy and the essay with Maurice Glasman, a political theorist, Labor peer, and a founding figure of the Blue Labor movement. The concerns of Blue Labour very much echo and resonate with those Crick outlines in his essay. As well as knowing Crick personally, Maurice shares an involvement in Labour Party politics with Crick. Prior to this involvement, Maurice was, for many years, involved in community organizing as part of London Citizens and Citizens UK.Resources for Going DeeperBernard Crick, In Defence of Politics, 5th edn (Continuum, 2005)Bernard Crick, "Civic Republicanism and Citizenship: the Challenge for Today," in Bernard Crick and Andrew Lockyer, Active Citizenship: What Could it Achieve and How?  (Edinburgh University Press, 2010)Maurice Glasman, 'Preface to In Defence of Politics' (2013)All available to download from: https://ormondcenter.com/listen-organize-act-podcast  For more information & relevant updates follow me on Twitter: @WestLondonMan For readings to download relevant to or discussed in an episode visit: https://ormondcenter.com/listen-organize-act-podcast

Rejecting both New Labour's embrace of free markets and the statism of Corbynism, Blue Labour thinking sought to reconnect Labour with its working-class base, and to bring assets, power and dignity back to local communities. As workers' rights and futures - and the future of the places they live - take centre-stage in politics once more, Blue Labour's founder, political scientist Maurice Glasman, is joined by Shadow Levelling-Up Secretary Lisa Nandy MP to explore what left-conservatism has to offer the Labour Party, and the country, in the post-Brexit, post-Covid era.#RSAcommongoodBecome an RSA Events sponsor: https://utm.guru/udI9xDonate to The RSA: https://utm.guru/udNNBFollow RSA Events on Instagram: https://instagram.com/rsa_events/Follow the RSA on Twitter: https://twitter.com/RSAEventsLike RSA Events on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rsaeventsofficialListen to RSA Events podcasts: https://bit.ly/35EyQYU 

Vi pratar om Blue Labours paradoxpolitik och sökandet efter existentiella ramberättelser. Johan har tydligen ingen respekt för adelstitlar, Oliver anar ugglor som får kläder, och Calle allena snackar bowling. (9/4/2021) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Paul Embery is a firefighter, trade union activist and prominent proponent of Blue Labour. He is a regular columnist for UnHerd.

Labour MP Jon Cruddas has written the best approximation of what can be considered “Starmerism’s offer to British workers.” While some elements - eg a job guarantee - are better than nothing (but even then, run their own risk of rebuilding a modern workhouse depending on the shape of the policy), even at best, their desirability and strategy for achieving them are based on a vision of the economy that nobody under 70 would recognise as realistic. So come on an annoying journey through Blue Labour nostalgia for proper jobs, when the bin men were hard.

This episode happened by accident. We were supposed to talk about a very powerful poster, but got too carried away with the cold open, that it became the first "Tweets of the week" show. In this episode, we talk about two kinds of baby - one covered in butter, and one not. And then, we talk about how John Milbank, one of the "Blue Labour" philosophical figureheads, got mad online about t-shirts. We also talk about corpses as property, and whether disavowing necrophiles is actually extremely problematic. @Hkesvani@Phoebe_Rosa_Holly 

In this episode of the podcast Will speaks to Labour Party councillor for Stanhope, Brendan Chilton, about the coronavirus pandemic and the government's handling of it, Brexit and the UK's future relationship with the world including China, Blue Labour, the homicide of George Floyd and the UK's reaction to it.

The words of William Blake's Jerusalem were invoked by Labour Prime Minister Clement Attlee when he launched his party's proudest achievement: the creation of a welfare state. "I will not cease from mental fight, Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand, Till we have built Jerusalem, In England's green and pleasant land." But some leading Labour Party figures no longer believe in the top down model that was meant to make real that vision of a "new Jerusalem". Mukul Devichand hears from leading Labour Party figures who want a radical new welfare settlement, saying the state itself is to blame for society's ills as much as the market. This new cadre of Labour thinkers is known as "Blue Labour". Two years ago we made a programme about them. Then they were worried about the impact of immigration on blue collar communities. Now they are part of Labour's inner circle: academic Maurice Glasman has been elevated to the House of Lords; Jon Cruddas MP is in charge of writing the party's manifesto; and Ed Miliband's widely applauded "One Nation" conference speech last year was written by "Blue Labour" godfather Marc Stears. The post war welfare settlement, according to Lord Glasman, represented the triumph of those who believed that government could solve social problems. That victory, says Glasman, came at a price: "A labour movement that was active and alive in the lives of people became exclusively concerned with what the state was going to do." The alternative, according to Blue Labour thinkers, is welfare delivered at local level rather than by a centralised state; and a benefits system that prioritises those who contribute over those who do not. "The key concept we use is incentive to virtue," Lord Glasman tells Mukul Devichand, "so we have to be judgemental." Producer: Fiona Leach Interviewees include: Maurice Glasman Labour Peer Sir Robin Wales Labour Mayor of Newham Jeremy Cliffe Britain Politics Correspondent, The Economist Polly Toynbee Guardian Columnist Andrew Harrop General Secretary, The Fabian Society.

Following its defeat in 2010, philosopher Maurice Glasman critiqued New Labour as statist and market fundamentalist. Considered the key thinker behind Blue Labour, he championed reclaiming traditions of reciprocity, mutualism and solidarity.The emergence of Blue Labour has led to a discussion about the future direction for the British Labour Party, particularly around the role of the state. Blue Labour has not been without its critics, however, who have derided its emphasis on "flag, faith and family" as nostalgic and socially conservative.Given the massive electoral challenges that the centre-left faces across the world, does Blue Labour offer any answers to its problems?Listen to the ACT Fabians and ANU Associate Professor Frank Bongiorno in discussing whether Blue Labour offers any lessons for Australia.

Labour's traditional working class supporters are abandoning the party in their droves. But can Labour win them back without alienating the middle-class voters it needs to win the next election? David Goodhart explores the tensions between two traditions in the Labour movement - a liberal wing focussed on equality and diversity and a conservative strand that is more concerned with issues of solidarity and community. And he examines the new Blue Labour school of thought, which believes that the best way to unite the two traditions is to rethink the Big State approach that became a defining element of the post-war Labour Party's identity.
