Sean and Andy are joined by British-Nigerian writer and podcaster, Ralph Leonard, to talk about identity, politics and the Anglo Ummah. We discuss the parlous state of the nationalist left, what a proletarian socialist politics might look like in the 21st century and what might possibly be conserved of the classical Marxist movement which died in the beginning of the last century. Along the way we bring up the morphing politics of identity, the uneasy cohabitation between left populism and Islamism in the UK, remigration as capitalist politics and how pre-politics might could get us out of this mess.
