How do we defeat populism?
The nation Labour governs today is unrecognisable compared to the one two decades ago
With essays from @jeevunsandher.bsky.social, @annagelderdmp.bsky.social, @lukemurphy.bsky.social & @andrewlewinmp.bsky.social
Common Endeavour explores how to build a stronger Britain
1/3
Proud to have worked with brilliant colleagues on this collection of essays.
With populism rising, the global order shifting and the affordability crisis deepening - the stakes are high.
We set out our ideas for how the Labour Government can meet the moment.

We face uniquely challenging times, which require bold solutions.
Delighted to have worked with @jeevunsandher.bsky.social to bring together a group of Labour MPs for this @thefabians.bsky.social collection, exploring how we can build a stronger Britain through our common endeavour.
London is both a safe city, and a great place to live.
We should be proud of our capital.
Good to speak to Ian Dale on @lbc.co.uk about crime in London.
The narrative of ‘Lawless London’ is being driven by Trump and the populist right, and it has more to do with prejudice than reality.
Great to see action on “subscription traps” today, which cost the average consumer around £170 a year
Labour has a long history of taking on businesses that exploit vulnerable consumers for profit
They should go further, as my @labourlist.bsky.social column argues
labourlist.org/2026/04/ben-...
“We are poorer, we're weaker, and we're more isolated as a country after Brexit. We're not a nation renewed, we're a nation diminished. And that's why more people are thinking about the future of our relationship with Europe as we approach the 10th anniversary of the referendum."
