While far-right violence has blighted much of Britain this month, Muslim communities, trade unionists and the wider left have mobilised against it, reports Derek Wall.
Keir Starmer’s Labour government has the power to reshape Britain. However it is likely to maintain policies protecting the wealthy, targeting the vulnerable and supporting US foreign policy, and must be challenged, argues Derek Wall.

Death is touching everyone in Britain with fatalities from COVID-19 running at nearly a thousand a day, writes Derek Wall. So why is Prime Minister Boris Johnson still popular?
British politics continues to be chaotic and uncertain. This might appear a surprising judgement, considering that: Boris Johnson’s government has a majority of 80 seats, the first time since the 1980s that the Conservatives have been able to rule without serious parliamentary challenge; and Britain left the European Union on January 31, apparently ending a saga that split first the Conservative Party and then the entire country.
Yet, beneath the surface, politics remains in flux, argues Derek Wall.
