As a new wave of the pandemic sweeps across Europe, governments are enforcing measures to slow the spread of the virus. But the ruling class and its representatives cannot be trusted with our lives. We need to put workers in control.
Recent strike action by UCU members is a shot across the bows for university bosses. With students and other campus workers also mobilising, the potential exists for mass united action across education. Union leaders must seize this chance.
Last weekend saw the first ever conference of young members in Unison, which represents workers across the public sector. But delegates hungry for radical ideas and bold strategy were left unsated. We need to fight to transform our unions.
A row over an alleged Downing Street Christmas party held during lockdown has added further fuel to the fire for Boris Johnson and his scandal-ridden government. The labour movement must mobilise to kick out these crooks and charlatans.

The past 12 months have been explosive in Britain, as the crisis of capitalism deepens, and the Tory government is pummelled by a torrent of sleaze and scandals. We urgently need to build the forces of Marxism. Help us in this task. Donate today!
