Palestine is a lightning rod for the anger of young people and workers

Fiona Lali wants to bring down the British government as well as capitalism.

The Marxist-organiser-turned-independent candidate in the upcoming UK general elections says there’s a link between the powerful protest movement for Palestine and the widespread anger felt by young people and workers alike.

Lali went viral in May when she confronted former British Home Secretary Suella Braverman on TV in what many saw as a powerful rebuttal of Braverman’s views on the university encampments protesting for Gaza.

This week on The Big Picture Podcast, we speak with Lali about how she took on one of the country's most divisive political figures and what she wants to change now that she’s a politician.
