London terrorist attack: don’t let the Tories talk of “our values”
A terrorist attack in London last night has left seven people dead. We utterly condemn this attack, which will only serve to fuel racism and provide a justification for imperialist adventures and attacks on civil liberties. At the same time, we must highlight the hypocrisy of the Tories and their talk of protecting “freedom, democracy and human rights”.
Wind in Corbyn’s sails: Tory defeat in sight!
Corbyn’s election campaign has continued to gather momentum, becoming a mass movement of workers and youth. With less than a week until election day, the vulnerability of May and the Tories is now clear for all to see. Latest studies reveal the possibility of a hung parliament. Time to go on the attack!
Tories in desperate online push as anti-Corbyn press fails
With their lead collapsing in the polls, the Tories are planning on spending over £1m on online campaigning in a desperate effort to hang onto power. Such is the popularity of Corbyn and his policies that the Conservatives are no longer confident that their billionaire friends who control the media can deliver the goods.
The election, the media, and the anti-Corbyn bias
If there is one thing you can be certain about in any UK election, it is that the vast majority of the press will be hostile to Labour. This current election is no exception to this rule. Steve Jones examines the inherent bias within the media under capitalism and discusses the way forward in fighting for real freedom of the press.
The Tory Party: the real terrorist sympathisers
The recent rise of Labour in the polls has sent the Establishment into panic mode. Their new strategy is to smear Corbyn with accusations that he is “soft” on terrorism and had “sympathy” for the IRA. As Ben Curry explains, however, a look back at history shows that it is the Tories who are the real terrorist sympathisers.
Corbyn exposes failed “war on terror”: to fight terrorism, fight capitalism!
Jeremy Corbyn returned to campaigning for the general election last Friday with a speech that offered a response to the appalling Manchester terrorist atrocity and that sought to draw a clear line underneath the failed “war on terror”. As Daniel Morley explains, to fight against the causes of terrorism means to fight against capitalism.
The Conservative manifesto: for the few, not the many
The publication of the Conservative Party manifesto has made it clear that the choice facing Britain in the coming election is the starkest in recent memory. The depth of the crisis has forced the Tories to attack their most loyal support base, the elderly. Like Cameron before her, however, Theresa May’s hubris could prove to be her downfall.
Solidarity with Manchester: Workers must stand united
Twenty-two people have been killed and 59 injured in the most deadly terrorist attack on British soil since the London 7/7 bombings. We condemn this barbaric atrocity and offer our solidarity to those in Manchester in these turbulent times. We must fight against both fundamentalism and right-wing demagogy – and against the capitalist system that breeds them both.
Tories in retreat: All-out for a Corbyn victory!
Within hours of the launch of the Tory manifesto, the Conservative lead over Labour in the polls was slashed by half. The political ground has begun to shift. With the polls narrowing, Labour has everything to play for. The whole Corbyn movement must now mobilise in order to deliver a mortal blow against this Tory government.
Scrap tuition fees! Support Corbyn! Register to vote today!
The Labour Party under Corbyn’s leadership pledged today that tuition fees would be entirely abolished in time for students starting university in the autumn of 2018. Today is the last chance to register to vote. Students and young people must mobilise, vote for Labour, and fight for a Corbyn-led government on a socialist programme.
No time to waste: Labour councillors must fight the cuts!
The recent local elections provide important lessons for the labour movement as a whole. Instead of helping to implement and administer Tory austerity locally, Labour councillors need to be mobilising the entire labour movement and leading a mass campaign to fight against the cuts.
Mass rallies seen as Corbyn Labour campaign takes off
Labour’s campaign to boot out the Tories is gathering momentum. Despite a concerted effort by the Tories, the right-wing press, and the Blairites to discredit Jeremy Corbyn, the Labour leader and his campaign are cutting through the web of lies and slanders by appealing directly to workers and youth with a bold and radical programme.
