After 14 years of Tory rule, this edition of Women's Fightback is brought to you under a Labour government. It is crucial that feminists and socialists think clearly about this new political reality, and that a real debate opens up about what our strategy should be. Our lead piece surveys the situation and sets out a rudimentary programme, and we continue the theme with a deep- dive into Labour's NHS policy. We also carry coverage of Labour's slide on LGBT rights, and some shocking union-busting by a Labour Council. As always, we also bring you a mix of history, culture and internationalism. We have first-hand reports from the US election and the French left, as well as the history of an anti-apartheid strike. We review a poetry anthology and some feminist art exhibitions. And we re-tell the story of a bizarre transphobic witch-hunt against a cisgender gold-medallist at the summer Olympics. We hope you enjoy it. More online: https://workersliberty.org/wf
