Episode 70 - Reflections on Conference

In the final part of our 2018 Labour conference trilogy, we join Jack & Tom one last time to look back with a few days' hindsight at this year's Liverpool-based event, which ran concurrently with the Labour left's festival of ideas, The World Transformed, which we actually attended, unlike conference itself. Discussed this time on RP are the return of the Socialist Campaign Group of MPs, the threat posed by the DEEP STATE (boo!) to prospective socialist governments, and the ups and downs of key conference speeches by Keir Starmer, Diane Abbott and Jeremy Corbyn, among others. Plus, we hear from chancellor Philip Hammond on why Labour are a government in waiting.
