In her book, Minority Rule, Ash Sarkar argues that parts of the modern left have drifted away from focusing on material issues like wages, housing, and public services, and have instead become overly focused on identity, language, and symbolic actions. While she acknowledges the importance of struggles around race and gender, she believes these issues are sometimes treated separately from class and economic power, which can weaken solidarity. Sarkar also criticises a tendency toward moralism and internal conflict within left-wing spaces, where people prioritise calling each other out over building collective movements.   Guest: Ash Sarkar, Senior Editor at Novara Media and author, Minority Rule Producer: Ali Benton
