Part 2/9:
Starmer's ties to radical leftist movements began in his younger years when he was associated with a faction known as "Pism." This group, linked to revolutionary socialism, sought to distance itself from the traditional notions of class struggle tied to the seizure of economic assets. Instead, they adopted a dual focus: the "red" signifying cultural and moral revolutions, and the "green" representing environmentalism—a pursuit underlined by goals such as achieving Net Zero. These underlying motivations appear to have shaped Starmer's worldview, particularly as he navigated contemporary issues such as gender politics.
