Inflation. Bankruptcies. Sovereign debt crisis. Political instability. These apocalyptic horsemen haunt Starmer and Reeves, as the Iran war projects its shadow over the future of the British economy.
Britain’s warmongering class have firmly sided with the US and Israel in their war on Iran. As they leave death and destruction in their wake, we at home are forced to pay the cost. These monsters must be overthrown. Hands off Iran! Down with their sick system!
This month marks the 250th anniversary of ‘The Wealth of Nations’ – the seminal work by bourgeois economist Adam Smith. Despite the denials of today’s liberals and free-marketeers, Smith’s theories paved the way for the revolutionary ideas of Marxism.
Labour’s Shabana Mahmood is waging war on asylum seekers and whipping up a culture war in a bid to counter Nigel Farage. But these policies please nobody and are alienating Labour’s own supporters. To fightback, we must turn their culture war into class war.
On 28 March, a coalition of trade unions, campaign groups, and celebrities will rally against racism and the right. The politics of this demo are hollow, however. The RCP is mobilising with a clear message: to fight racism, we must fight capitalism.

The war on Iran is producing massive radicalisation, which will exponentially increase the more this catastrophe drags on. But Britain’s trade union leaders are lagging far behind this mood – failing to provide any point of expression for the anger against the ruling class.
Apocalyptic scenes are coming out of Iran: clouds of toxic black smoke choking the residents of Tehran, and black acid rain falling from the skies. Imperialism isn’t just responsible for the direct casualties of war – it is also responsible for ecological catastrophe.
Newly launched ‘Restore Britain’ is looking to outflank Reform to the right with a real reactionary banquet of policies, especially when it comes to immigration. But will it ‘split the right’, or remain no more than a flash in the pan?
