| Corbyn's Manifesto; Netanyahu's Indictments; Bolivian coup
|
Jeremy Corbyn has launched a new radical Manifesto for Labour that promotes a vision for the country with broad appeal that challenges and counteracts the politics of austerity, despair and decline that have characterized the last several decades. Corbyn is campaigning for real change, and we get Kevin Ovenden’s analysis.
Yoav Peled on what happens next now that Netanyahu has been indicted on three counts of bribery, fraud and breach of trust. The indictments put Israel in uncharted political territory, and we get Yoav’s insights on what happens next.
Political sociologist Gabriel Hetland is closely following the events in Bolivia, now caught in a spiral of horrors as the far-right regime of terror consolidates its rule after the ouster of Evo Morales on November 10. We also get Gabriel’s latest research into the conditions of the disputed elections that led to Evo Morales’ contested victory and forced resignation.

Forrest Hylton in Medellin, Colombia with a deeper look into the conditions that led to the ouster of Evo Morales on November 10. The MSM are not calling this a coup nor reporting how violent and increasingly dangerous the situation has become. Forrest places the coup in the larger context of the rebellions against neoliberalism in Latin America and says the stakes in labelling what happened in Bolivia are nothing less than political legitimacy – as conservative right-wing forces have fused with anti-indigenous evangelical Christian forces running roughshod over the efforts of Bolivian citizens to democratize Bolivian politics.
Pedro Paulo Zahluth Bastos in Campinas, Brazil on Lula’s release from jail and the consequences for politics in Bolsonaro’s Brazil. The Brazilian supreme court recently ruled that the incarceration of Lula was unlawful because his appeals had not been exhausted, and last week Lula was freed. Bolsonaro’s popularity is plunging and we get Pedro Paulo Zahluth Bastos to explain.
Norman Solomon joins us from the California Democratic Party convention to talk about progressive populism and the billionaires class warfare against Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren.

Tariq Ali on Corbyn, Labour and the Election. The stakes couldn’t be higher, and if the Conservatives have their way, the campaign will focus on Brexit, which has sucked the air out of politics and worse, has divided the working class and the left without addressing what led people to vote to leave in the first place. Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has made his campaign about reversing the decades long night of austerity and the need to commit £400bn of investment to the twin crises of the climate emergency and social deprivation.
Pablo Abufom on the continuing mass protests, now for the 3rd week. At least 30 are dead, hundreds wounded (many blinded by rubber bullets) and thousands detained. Pablo Abufom Silva, in Santiago, says the demands now are for the end of the Pinera government, a new Constituent Assembly and a new constitution – and, a new system.
