Last weekend, the ghost of the Troubles returned to the North of Ireland, as loyalists attempted to hold an Orange march through a nationalist neighbourhood, which was blocked by workers and youth. A revolutionary struggle against sectarian reaction is needed.
Jeffrey Donaldson – until recently the leader of the largest Unionist party in the North of Ireland, a Privy Council member, and a knighted darling of British imperialism – has been found guilty on 18 counts of child sexual abuse. This will deepen the long-term crisis of the Unionist establishment.
Belfast is gripped by the worst violence the city has seen in over a decade. The blame lies with right-wing demagogues, British imperialism, and the entire system. Workers must mobilise to destroy the right – and tear their racist system down!
All across the Revolutionary Communist International, sections have been holding their national congresses. Two Central Committee comrades from the British RCP share their experiences and lessons from attending the Irish Congress, where the comrades are going from strength to strength.

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.Â
