We are thrilled to welcome lecturer, podcaster and thinker Jeremy Gilbert onto our show in order to talk about why exactly it is the government seems to hate educators. In a wide ranging discussion we seek to place UK education in its wider political context and history, what factors explain the atavism of the right against a truly equitable state education provision and what the possible strategies are available for challenging neoliberal hegemony in the present moment and in the future. We hope you enjoy the thought-provoking discussion and big thanks to Jeremy for offering us his insights. Hosted by Nik, and co-hosts Charlie and Lee.
