This month, the British establishment has ramped up its hysterical baiting of the pro-Palestine movement. From mass arrests on Parliament Square to odious media hypocrisy – the cynicism is off the scale. We say: hands off the Palestine movement!
While claiming to be a party for workers, Starmer’s Labour has become a home for profiteers and parasites. While former homelessness minister (!) Rushanara Ali turfed out her tenants, Tulip Siddiq denies profiting from her auntie’s corrupt, murderous regime in Bangladesh.
Several unions representing NHS workers have come out emphatically against Labour’s poor pay offer. The next step is to unite strike action across the unions, with a mass campaign against austerity and privatisation, and for bold socialist policies.
Right-wing SNP Deputy First Minister Kate Forbes has announced she will stand down in next year’s Holyrood election. Meanwhile, left-wing former MP Mhairi Black has left the party altogether. This paints a picture of a crisis-ridden party, stumbling into a blind alley.

All websites operating in the UK must now verify their users’ age if they host content deemed potentially ‘harmful’ for children. But we can have no trust in Starmer’s big business government to put young people’s welfare first. We need a revolution!

After 15 years of austerity, cuts and declining living standards, Nigel Farage would have you believe ‘broken Britain’ is because of immigrants and refugees. But the real culprits are Starmer and the capitalist establishment!
The Edinburgh Fringe festival begins today, but as tens of thousands pour into venues, restaurants, and hotels, many have simply been priced out or face extortionate costs to attend. In response, the Scottish comrades of the RCP will be calling out to reclaim the Fringe!
