Good to see this. Music inappropriate. Labour minister is pathetic. A disgrace.

Yes. That's the end goal - as ever for socialists. But also as ever there's the question of counter-hegemonic struggle. Good examples can come at the state level and shift the discourse. So basebuilding + engagement with state-level politics - is it OK?

what would the goal (function) of that policy be? in MMT, the job guarantee aims to create full employment; the state in this model has the responsibility to spend into the economy sufficiently to offer paid employment to all who want it; if diverse sites can create money, can this risk inflation?

The kinds of responses you might expect at the Mad Hatter's tea party: false claim (BDS wants eradication of Israel); inappropriate association (associate boycots with Nazis); non sequitur (Hamas want end of Israel as related to supposed BDS goals). Thanks for standing up to them, Carla.
