Town/City: 
LONDON

Speaker: Billy Bragg, Chair: Dr Robin Archer. Is it possible to be both progressive and patriotic? Those on the left are constantly reminded that there are many types of socialism - often competing with one another. Is the same true of patriotism? We are quick to dismiss such impulses as little more than xenophobia wrapped in pageantry, but could a love of one’s country be a progressive force in society?
