Local communities have been devastated by recent storms, with thousands of homes submerged following a string of downpours. The only ‘levelling up’ taking place is rising water levels. The blame for this disaster lies squarely with the Tories.
With the Tories mired in crisis, the ruling class is increasingly building up ‘Sir’ Keir Starmer as a possible future occupant of Number 10. But the Labour right wing has nothing to offer workers and youth. We must build the forces of Marxism.
Starmer and the right wing are continuing their purge of left-wing activists from the Labour Party. Socialist Appeal supporters and grassroots members in the North East are the latest victims of this scandalous witch-hunt.
Whipping up jingoistic hysteria to distract from their own crimes, the UK government is threatening sanctions against Putin and his billionaire backers. Given the Tory Party’s own links to Russian money, however, this is nothing but hot air.
Recent events have once again shone a light on the endemic sexism and racism within the police. This rotten institution cannot be reformed. It must be overthrown, along with the capitalist system that it exists to protect.
Recently announced government proposals for ‘levelling up’ are another case of Tory bluff and bluster, with no genuine plan for tackling regional disparities. For real investment in deprived areas, we need public ownership and socialist planning.
The Labour right wing is continuing its clearout of socialists from the party. The left is demoralised and in disarray. Yet workers and youth are moving into action. We need to build the forces of Marxism – in the unions and on the streets.
Andy Southwark exposes the rotten institution of the monarchy and the role that it plays against socialism.
The much-awaited report into Downing Street’s illicit lockdown gatherings has been defanged by the intervention of the Met Police. The establishment will always protect their own. Only the working class can deliver real justice.
Despite mounting pressure on all sides, the Prime Minister is stubbornly clinging on. But it is clear that the ruling class is looking to replace him. This is opening up a crisis for the whole establishment, preparing an explosive situation.
Tory ministers have announced that all COVID restrictions will soon be removed, with the public told to ‘learn to live with the virus’. But it is the working class who will suffer the consequences. We say: fight to put health before profits!
Keir Starmer has offered a warm welcome to recent Tory defector Christian Wakeford. Meanwhile, socialists are being purged from the party, and Jeremy Corbyn has not had the whip restored. Labour should be appealing to workers, not Tories.
