Nice article Roy :)
Atm Corbyn seems preoccupied with fighting off problems, rather than instigating anything like the great ideas you suggest.

If Corbyn does not start work on the transition soon I fear we may need to abandon all hope that the ‘conventional’ (read: dysfunctional) political system can help us, and get on with inventing our own transition, in which the people create their own power, rather than wait to be invited to have some…
