Can the Left Still Win? Varoufakis, Corbyn, Polanski & Blakeley — First Time Together

Can the left still win, and what does resistance look like in a time of war, inequality, and political crisis?

At DiEM25’s Resistance Is Existence event in London, Yanis Varoufakis is joined by Jeremy Corbyn, Zack Polanski, and Grace Blakeley for a powerful panel on Gaza, class power, democracy, and the future of the left.

This marks the first time Jeremy Corbyn and Zack Polanski have shared a stage together. The event also features a message from Francesca Albanese, who was unable to attend in person.

This conversation explores what it means to resist today — from solidarity with Palestine to the fight for economic justice, climate action, and democratic power — and asks how resistance can become a force capable of winning real change.

Topics include:
• Gaza, Palestine, and international law
• Francesca Albanese’s message on this political moment
• Class struggle, inequality, and wealth concentration
• Elections vs movement-building
• Housing, public services, and economic democracy
• Media power and political narratives
• How to resist, and how to win
