Manifesto of the Revolutionary Communist International
This June sees the launch of the Revolutionary Communist International. We publish here the founding document of the RCI, outlining the communist programme that we are fighting for. Join us today, and help build the forces of communism worldwide.
What should Communists do about the Ukraine war?
With the western imperialists facing defeat in Ukraine, their boastful jingoism has turned into its opposite. In this episode, Hamid Alizadeh explains what forces lie behind the conflict, and why Communists must take a revolutionary, internationalist position.
The economic strangulation of the Palestinian people
Netanyahu is tightening the noose around the necks of the Palestinian people. Gaza is being purposefully deprived of vital aid by western imperialism. And Israel is withholding tax revenue from the West Bank. An almighty explosion is being prepared.
Aaron Bushnell: An act expressing the rage and frustration of millions
The self-immolation of US Airman Aaron Bushnell in protest of the imperialist slaughter of Gaza has been met by an immense outpouring of sympathy across the world. A revolutionary mood is brewing everywhere, this must be channelled by a clear communist programme and organisation.
The fall of Avdiivka: The beginning of the end
Western imperialism is facing the prospect of a humiliating defeat in Ukraine. Support for Zelensky and his government is falling, both at home and abroad. Washington and NATO have scandalously pushed Ukrainians into fighting an unwinnable war.
Rafah onslaught: The spark that could set the Middle East alight
The people of Gaza are already facing a deadly nightmare. Spurred on by his own narrow political interests, however, Netanyahu is set to escalate the slaughter even further by invading the city of Rafah. The whole region is ready to explode.
Time to launch a Revolutionary Communist International!
The elected leadership of the IMT met recently to discuss the tumultuous situation for capitalism globally, and the tasks of the communists in the period ahead. Most importantly, comrades resolved to launch the Revolutionary Communist International.
History of the RCP: The partition of Palestine and the communist perspective
This May, we are launching the Revolutionary Communist Party. To prepare for this, we are looking back on the history of our organisation – beginning with the firm position taken by the Trotskyists in the ‘40s against the partition of Palestine.
“Famine is inevitable”: Western imperialists freeze aid to Gaza
Whilst the Israeli state continues its genocide of Palestinians, western powers have suspended funding to UNRWA – a vital source of food, shelter, and medicine in Gaza. The imperialists’ hypocrisy knows no bounds. They have blood on their hands.
Them and us: Billionaires hobnob while billions suffer
Writing for the first issue of The Communist, readers highlight some of the most egregious examples of the global elites’ debauchery and depravity: from eye-watering inequality, to sordid scandals, to hypocritical hedonism. Overthrow their system!
North of Ireland general strike: Workers rise up against Tory ransom
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.
