The exhortation to “read some effing Orwell!” is an old chestnut of the online left, whether ironic or sincere, or somewhere in between. But if we’re looking for a writer whose body of work truly anticipates the world we live in now – globalised, postcolonial, postmodern – we might instead turn to the American Marxist […]
Devolution – handing powers from Westminster to local government – is going to save England’s neglected regions. At least that’s what the Conservatives say. By 2025, the majority of England will be devolved. But what is devolution and what does it actually mean for the people supposedly taking back control? In the first episode of […]
Following the discovery of new mass graves in Gaza since the start of April, The UN Human Rights Commissioner has now called for a full investigation. Plus: Channel 4’s tell-all interview with an anonymous IDF soldier; and Michael Walker debates Tom Harwood on no-fault evictions. With @NoJusticeMTG .
Pigs may not fly, but two decades ago in the north east of England, a white elephant did. The giant inflatable mammal was the mascot of the ‘North East Says No’ (NESNO) campaign, masterminded in part by a young political strategist named Dominic Cummings. Retrospectively dubbed one of the first political campaigns to tap into […]

As you pull into Portsmouth International Port, several flags meet your eye. One is the union flag – no surprise for a harbour of national importance. Alongside it, though, is another, much older banner – that of the city itself. The origins of that image, a crescent and star with eight points, date as far […]
Rishi Sunak is trying to rescue his premiership by reviving his favourite dead end policy – stopping small boats. Plus: the truth is revealed about Gideon Falter’s clash with police at a pro-Palestine march; and yet another lie about the October 7th attacks has fooled the media. With Michael Walker and @NoJusticeMTG .
On Thursday, a video began circulating of a Metropolitan police officer instructing a Jewish man to leave a pro-Palestine march. “You are quite openly Jewish,” the officer told Gideon Falter, who’d seemingly stumbled across the central London demo on 13 April. “This is a pro-Palestinian march. I’m not accusing you of anything, but I am […]
It’s not what you know; it’s what you can prove. For years, Forensic Architecture has exposed state crimes against civilians, nature, and humanity. This week on Downstream, Ash Sarkar meets FA’s director Eyal Weizman, to discuss Israel’s settler colonial project, the police killing of Mark Duggan, and how the testimony of blindfolded torture victims helped […]
A lot of people are saying that fascism is on the rise. But what are we pointing to when we call a system, or a person, fascist? On this Trip, Nadia, Keir and Jem map out a complicated ideology, from its roots in 19th century industrialisation to its resurgence in ethnonationalism and eco-apartheid. Exploring how […]
