In this book, Michael Thompson argues that the influence of identity politics on modern Labor's political agenda - assisted by a political class whose sole concern is power - poses an "existential" threat to Labor. The warning signs are clear. Popular disaffection with the political class is increasing, and the Party's embrace of left-wing, progressive issues is sidelining core working-class aspirations and grievances that used to be the focus of Labor politics.
