048 - Rent Strike with Jack

We have an extra-special mains this week, it's an interview with Jack from the Rent and Mortgage Strike group. We get into rental strikes, solidarity culture, weaponising privilege, and even a few memes.

Plus we have all our usual stuff: embarrassing politicians, racist journalists, and more!
