Black All Year - Decoding the Rise of the Right

Black All Year

Send us a Text Message.

What if the recent UK general election was more than just a competition between Labour and Conservative parties? Join me, Steph Edusei, as I try to make meaning of the election results and what they reveal about the state of British opinion. Using insights from renowned thinkers like Robert O. Paxton, Erich Fromm, and Noam Chomsky, I try to decode the rise of the Reform UK Party Limited and its 4% vote share. I also spotlight the gains made by the Liberal Democrats and Green Party in this shifting political landscape.
Beyond election mechanics, in this episode I attempt to give some answers to address the move towards radical views, stressing the crucial role of critical thinking and media literacy in combating misleading narratives. I discuss how we need to build inclusive communities grounded in mutual understanding and cooperation along with critical economic reforms aimed at tackling inequality are highlighted. I make a case for the importance of political engagement and supporting marginalised groups amid rising far-right rhetoric. Finally, I call on you to get involved, share your thoughts, and work collectively towards a more just society.
