A Blair for All Seasons

Every now and again, Tony Blair pops up to tell us that we’re doing too much social justice and that maybe Tommy Robinson has a point. This week, the gang of Riley (@raaleh), Milo (@Milo_Edwards), Nate (@inthesedeserts), and Alice (@AliceAvizandum) discuss a report from the Tony Blair Institute for Social Change about—and this is not hyperbole—why populism is apparently immigrants’ fault? It’s bad, of course, but chances are good that no one will read it except for irony podcasters.
