Dead Pundits Society

James Meadway joins us to talk about the economics and politics of future socialist governments. James recently stepped down from his role as economic advisor to Shadow Minister of the Exchequer, John McDonnell. We discuss this experience serving as policy advisor to an MP and the ways in which a Corbyn-led Labour Party must proceed in the event it is at the helm of the British state in the coming years (or weeks!).
