18 February 2016 Leave a Comment

"...Patriarchy is not the rule of men over women, it's the rule of the binary - the insistence that there really are sides, and that each is a pre-existing category unto itself, fixed and hallowed, one superior to another. "...what I write about is a deepening of the kinds of shifts that need to happen if we are to really address ‘inequality’. The object of this essay is not to invite us to go back to some hallowed period or golden age when men and women slept side by side, like lions and … Continue reading

Why the living wage is victory for people power, not party politics

22 September 2015 Leave a Comment

"Neil Jameson, whose campaign for decent pay has won over Lidl, explains why he prefers taking a battle to the streets to Westminster infighting.... "Greying, bearded and radiating a determined calm, Jameson has more than a hint of the Jeremy Corbyn about him. Like Corbyn, he believes passionately in the value of politics as a democratic, bottom-up, grassroots process and has spent much of his working life trying to shift the balance of power in society. "But unlike Labour’s new leader, … Continue reading
