With the UK left cut out of the Labour Party more than any time in its history, a coalition of left organisations is calling for a new Party of the left to contest the 2024 General Election. Jackson Caines of 'Transform Politics' joins TPS to answer why the left can't just 'stay and fight' and push Keir Starmer to the left, what's wrong with the Green Party, and what to do about the left's blindspots over the petite bourgeoisie, COVID, and Ukraine?

Originally released to the public as a burst of audio podcasts over  Christmas 2022, COVID Critical is a series of interviews with medical and legal professionals, government advisers, epidemiologists and activists, who had opposed elements of the COVID-19 regime. TPS now releases the unedited video of those interviews from our vaults, exclusively for our Patreon subscribers.

Trucker Gord Magill returns to TPS to reflect on the most novel form of resistance thrown out by the COVID-19 pandemic: the Canada Truckers convoy against vaccine mandates. James and Gord discuss Justin Trudeau's invocation of emergency powers against the truckers, the failure of the left and the unions to respond adequately, and the alternative to 'from above' legalistic approaches to COVID overreach that have come to dominate the COVID critical position in recent months. TPS would like to thank Collateral Global for their support for TPS COVID CRITICAL.
