This week we welcome James to the show, a long time listener and patron who I met recently at the CPGB Communist University this summer. We give a thorough analysis of the event, our thoughts on the talks, the people we met there, and our overall general impression. For those unaware, Mike MacNair, whose book ‘Revolutionary Strategy’ we are currently studying on the podcast, is a member of the CPGB. He gave a number of talks related to the book, and was where I got to sit down with him to talk about brexit for the recent episodes.

We continue our conversation with Mike MacNair on Brexit, the history of the UK’s role in the EU, and what he expects to happen in the coming weeks and months. Apologies for the fridge sounds in the background
