The Road To Justice |
- This section of the website was renamed in January 2020. It had been called 'The Road to Corbyn', the title of my publication in 2016.
- I had no choice. The Tories were returned to power in December 2019.
Jeremy Corbyn will never lead a Labour government.
- We did have a good run though – nearly five years of inspiration remains impressive - socialism has become a political force again.
- So, this page is retitled: ‘The Road to Justice’.
- Still the same message, though!
