Looking for answers to problems ignored by the political class - low-wages, un-achievable house prices, global warming - a new global, young and left-wing movement was born from student Occupy campaigning. This is the inside story of how the left came back to life in the 2010s, from a man who found himself at the centre of events - featuring unparalleled access and a range of interviews with key left-wing figures. Influential journalist and activist Michael Chessum explains how this movement was built, why it failed, and what it needs to do now.
