This will be the third year of The World Transformed, but, according to organiser Hope Worsdale, it’s the first time it’s had space to breathe. The first time that Momentum organised a fringe festival at the Labour conference, in 2016, Corbyn had just seen off the attempt by Owen Smith to unseat him as leader. The second was straight after the 2017 election. Both were celebrations. And parties don’t tend to provide much space for reflection.
This year is different. The event, over four days in Liverpool, will focus on four key themes: governing from the radical left, building power outside the party, a new socialist internationalism and political education.
