    'Everything in Moderation'

    In a state of UK-wide lockdown, the left will struggle to make political capital from the Covid-19 crisis. Despite many of its historical arguments about the need for a strong state, and government intervention, now effectively being made by the Tories, the general population will likely resist anything more radical than what is currently happening. So what do people who want to see real change do now? Audio mastered by Morphamish Artwork by MJ Windebank Published by You Call That Radio https://pod.link/1466719969

    Walk and Talk with Darren McGarvey is a special podcast series dedicated to matters arising from the Coronavirus crisis. Episode 2: Everyone is up shit creek. After a decade of brutal austerity, now most people in Britain knows how it feels to need support from the state. Measures announced by the UK government have thrown out everything we previously thought about economics and state intervention. But who will pay for it all after? Is austerity 2.0 inevitable? Or will the COVID-19 crisis lead to a greater empathy for those who've been defaulting on debts for years prior to this crisis? Will it moderate stereotypes about benefit claimants? And will the relaxed welfare conditionality we see being implemented continue after the crisis has passed? If not, why? Let's talk about it!

    Walk and Talk with Darren McGarvey - Ep 1 - 'We Can All Go Home'
    Mar 18 2020
    After centuries of wealth accumulation, democratic innovation, and technological and medical advances, our government's big idea is that we should all stay in the house for the rest of the year and not come out until the virus goes away. What does this mean? Aren't pandemics predictable? Why were we so unprepared and how will social-distancing impact our daily lives?
