EDITOR’S NOTE Welcome to the final edition of Look Left for this academic year! After yet another difficult and disrupted term, this issue brings together some brilliant writing from across the university. Look Left Trinity ‘21 encourages us to look back, look around and look forwards, in understanding the world we live in. Building a more positive future necessitates all three of these things; learning from the past, collaborating with one another and looking, hopefully, to the future. The breadth of subject matter covered in this edition is remarkable. From class politics in Kashmir to the future of the Labour Party in England, this term’s contributors have produced some fantastic writing. The range of topics and issues addressed remind us of how interwoven our politics, and indeed our lives, are. The socialist saying ‘there can be no liberation, until there is liberation for us all’ rings true here. Look Left contributors highlight the importance of local, national and international solidarity; the importance of standing for socialist values at home and across the world. Whilst the future and philosophy of the Labour Party is uncertain, what is certain is that this edition of Look Left will entertain, inform and hopefully surprise you (in a good way). My thanks goes out to everyone who has contributed to this issue and given us the chance to share their amazing writing. A special thank you also to Beth Nott for their amazing graphic design and helping with the technological side of putting this edition together. I think we can all agree that this issue looks amazing and I am incredibly grateful for all of Beth’s help. CIARA GARCHA
