53 years on from the Bloody Sunday massacre of defenceless marchers in Derry, the British state has shamelessly absolved itself of any guilt for the slaughter. Soldier F – who pulled the trigger against five on Bloody Sunday – has been acquitted.
Left-wing independent Catherine Connolly has been elected President of Ireland with a thumping majority. Alongside mass absenteeism, the election is a disaster for the Irish establishment.
In this session from the Revolution Festival 2024, Shaun Morris, Central Committee member of the RCP, discusses the cruel legacy of British imperialism in Ireland.
A new book by a Belfast-based investigative journalist exposes a covered-up child sexual abuse scandal – involving the monarchy, MI5, the Royal Ulster Constabulary, and the Loyalist establishment. The British state is rotten, depraved, and abusive – right to the very top.
The British establishment has ramped up its witch hunt against Kneecap, with band member Mo Chara charged with a terror offence. The RCI opposes this blatant political attack, which is nothing but a distraction from the ruling class’s crimes in Palestine and at home.
Irish rap group Kneecap have been victims of a vicious smear campaign for supporting Palestine. This reeks of imperialist hypocrisy. It is the capitalist system and its politicians that have blood on their hands. Kneecap have nothing to apologise for.

Jeffrey Donaldson has stepped down as DUP leader, after being charged with historic sexual offences. This latest scandal marks a heavy blow for the DUP, for Unionism, and for the stability of Stormont. This whole rotten system must be overthrown.
The Tories are using public sector workers in the North of Ireland as pawns in their efforts to end the political paralysis at Stormont. But workers across the sectarian divide are refusing to be passive observers, and are moving into action.
Reactionary riots on the streets of Dublin have revealed the threat of the far right in Ireland. The left and the labour movement must organise and mobilise to meet this menace head on. We must urgently build the forces of revolution.
The Dublin Lockout began 110 years ago, when the bosses joined forces to smash militant trade unionism in Ireland. Socialists today must learn from the inspiring example of James Connolly and Jim Larkin, and build a revolutionary leadership.
A comrade from the Irish Marxists explains why he left People Before Profit (PBP), Ireland’s largest self-styled ‘Marxist’ organisation, to join the International Marxist Tendency. Unsatisfied with a lack of attention to theory and the electoral reformism of PBP, Nathan explains why the IMT in contrast fits the bill as the serious, revolutionary outfit he had been seeking.
