Keir Starmer is determined to demonstrate his loyalty to the capitalists, with attacks on pensioners and children, alongside promises of NHS “reform” (i.e. privatisation). This austerity agenda is preparing the way for further social explosions.
The Tory Party is in the midst of its latest contest to select a new leader. Four contenders remain in the race. The ruling class is worried about the potential outcome. Whatever the result, Britain’s political instability will intensify.
The film and television industry has been in deep crisis since the summer of 2023, with workers across the sector being made to pay for capitalism’s failures. In order to save jobs, and ensure the flourishing of culture, we need workers’ control!

The Revolutionary Communist Party is launching a nationwide ‘Books Not Bombs’ campaign. We’re going to educate, agitate, and organise amongst workers and youth who want to see an end to militarism, imperialism, and their root cause: the capitalist system.
This year’s TUC congress starts on Sunday, with trade union leaders gathering in Brighton to discuss their demands on Starmer’s new government. Instead of preparing the movement for battle, however, they are sowing illusions in Labour’s programme.
Starmer’s Labour are trying to distance themselves from the genocide in Gaza, with a partial ban of arms exports to Israel. But the truth is that they, and the entire British establishment, have blood on their hands. Overthrow these war criminals!
The political crisis in France has intensified, with Macron’s refusal to appoint the left-wing NFP’s proposed Prime Minister. Whatever the outcome, only a powerful movement of workers and youth outside of parliament can halt the ruling class’s austerity agenda.
The recovery of six dead hostages from Gaza has sparked a serious political crisis within Israel, which could lead to the removal of Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu. However, Zionist class-collaboration offers no way forward for Palestinian liberation.
In 1948, the Israeli state was founded, and millions of Palestinians were expelled from their homeland. Scandalously, the Stalinist bureaucracy supported the creation of Israel – a move which had a disastrous impact on the world communist movement.
