The Labour Problem archive
This splash page collects the five standalone websites included in the archive. Each card links through to the original site folder; the individual sites have been copied in as-is and not edited.
A two-page publication about Labour’s attempt to rewrite its story around Andy Burnham. It asks whether a change in political face is also a change in political method, or just another narrative turn.
What to expect: Expect tabbed essays covering the Burnham leadership narrative and benefit cuts as moral theatre.
Open siteAn FT-style explainer arguing that persuasion works only when people become reachable. It connects fear-gated learning, Covid-era messaging, nudge theory, social media and hypnosis to show when ideas are allowed to matter.
What to expect: Expect a single-page essay with clear sections on learning, fear, Covid, Labour, nudging and attentional shelter.
Open siteA political essay recasting the Overton window as a live social-control system rather than a static metaphor for public opinion. It focuses on who may speak, what may be debated and how legitimacy is enforced.
What to expect: Expect a standalone explainer with an additional process page describing how the argument was made.
Open siteA serious newspaper-style explainer of the collisionless society argument. It moves from physical blockage to intelligence, institutions and value as systems for preventing destructive overlap.
What to expect: Expect a structured interactive essay with a dimensional slider and a collapsible source figure.
Open siteA speculative belief-system version of the collisionless society idea. It presents non-collision as a modern faith built around passage, restraint, signal and the design of ways through conflict.
What to expect: Expect a stylised creed with ritual language, navigation between doctrine and practice, and a hidden source figure.
