A Progressive Alliance: Laying the Foundations
There's one constant thread running through the post-Brexit chaos: if ever there was a time to bring people together to help transform our corrupted and dysfunctional political system, through some kind of progressive alliance, this has to be it.

But the campaign also revealed the startling divides that now put at risk any prospect of a stable, unified country - divides between London and the rest of the country, between the 'left behind', 'hanging in', and 'still works for me'; between those taking comfort looking in and those building dreams by looking out; between young and old.
