Beyond the Noise with David Jamieson is a weekly podcast with CommonSpace journalist David Jamieson, where he gets behind the 24/7 outrage-driven social media news circus and gets to heart of issues, trying to find the substance behind the headlines.
ON this episode Jamieson speaks with Jonathon Shafi, a Scottish socialist activist, about the crisis exploding around Theresa May’s withdrawal deal with the EU, which has seen yet more senior ministers resign.
They discuss:
– 1:10 What does the latest crisis, and the deal itself, tell about the nature of Brexit?
– 8:55 Should it be the end of the line for the left’s involvement in the so called ‘People’s Vote’?
– 20:32 What have the various response to the meltdown over the deal been from opposition parties? Are they an effective response.
– 33:34 What are the next steps for the left in response to the crisis?
