Richard Burgon on whether the Labour left lives on, Keir Starmer, and the future of socialism

Richard Burgon is one of the Labour's left most prominent parliamentarians, and a candidate for deputy leader in the 2020 contest. There's a lot to talk about: is the Labour left dead, essentially routed by the leadership and blocked from ever reviving again; did Keir Starmer lie his way into the leadership; what is the left's strategy and vision and future; are we doomed to indefinite Tory rule - and is there any hope?
