Leading members of the Awami Action Committee in the Pakistan-administered region of Gilgit-Baltistan have been arrested. The Revolutionary Communist International is running a global campaign to secure the comrades’ release – and we need your help!
The Norwich district of the RCP has had a great few weeks, recruiting four new revolutionaries to the party. Here, they explain how regular political discussions using ‘The Communist’ newspaper have driven their success.
In the run-up to next week’s NATO summit, Starmer’s Labour has announced more new plans to ramp up military spending, using the threat of a ‘Russian invasion’ to carry out attacks on workers at home. Down with militarism! For welfare, not warfare!
In response to Trump’s brutal campaign against immigrant workers and families, demonstrations have erupted across the United States. The ground is being prepared for a massive upheaval, and one spark could turn into a mass conflagration.
Israel’s latest act of aggression against Iran has once again stirred the hypocritical chorus of warmongers in Westminster. The task of Communists is to expose the crimes of Netanyahu, Starmer, and British imperialism; and to fight for international socialism, starting at home.
In its first year of power, Starmer’s ‘electoral fortress’ has suffered the same sorry fate as the ‘unsinkable’ Titanic. With stormier waters ahead, Reeves’ Spending Review is merely rearranging the deckchairs on a sinking ship. Time to throw these capitalist shills overboard!

Netanyahu is betting his political future on a regional conflagration — escalating the Gaza genocide into an all‑out war with Iran, dragging US imperialism along to save his skin.

Far from being a ‘decentralised’ alternative to money, the cryptocurrency industry has been embraced and centralised by the bankers and capitalists as yet another means of speculation. The entire system must be overthrown if we’re going to ever see an end to this insanity.
Last month, US President Donald Trump announced tariffs on films “produced in foreign lands” coming into the USA . Although unclear what this will amount to, it only looks set to create more uncertainty and pain for the 195,000 film workers in the UK.
