As Birmingham gets buried in bins, refuse workers continue their all-out battle against Labour council leaders, Starmer’s government, and both’s austerity programme. Their fight forebodes the titanic struggles to come for Britain’s workers. Victory to the strike!
Privatisation in Britain has been a horror show. Corporations have raked in profits and shareholder payouts at the expense of us all. When these industries fail, only the losses are nationalised. Instead, we say: Nationalise the lot! For workers control!
Teachers across Britain are simmering with anger against years of cuts to pay, crumbling teaching conditions, and the pressure of overwork. Strike action is on the cards. To win against Starmer’s austerity, the NEU needs a militant strategy!

RCP members protesting against King Charles’ Durham visit were intimidated and harassed by the Durham Police last week, partly for the ‘crime’ of carrying communist literature. This is a flagrant violation of our hard-won rights to free speech and assembly.
“A year ago, my uncle passed away from cancer. He may still have been with us if it wasn’t for the NHS crisis. I want to live in a world where there is no need for charity, so I am running the London Marathon, in my uncle’s memory, to raise money for the RCP.”

Anger has erupted following the Supreme Court’s vicious attack on trans people last week, with large protests across Britain. RCP members found that attendees are fed up with the entire system, and are open to a revolutionary, class-based approach to fighting oppression.
The crisis-ridden establishment has cynically leapt on yesterday’s UK Supreme Court ruling regarding the definition of a woman to whip up a divisive culture war. Workers and youth must unite and fight for revolution against the billionaire class.
The Mancunion has published a shameful defence of imperialism which parrots ruling-class propaganda, smearing student protest while whitewashing Britain’s bloody war machine. But students see through the lies – and will continue to fight.
Over the weekend, the Labour government passed emergency legislation to take control of steel – in particular Scunthorpe’s steelworks. While the union leaders breathe a sigh of relief, we say: No trust in Starmer! Expropriate all the parasites!
This week, we have allegedly witnessed history. For a glorious ten minutes, an all-female spaceflight took place! But while the billionaires throw money into the void and call it ‘progress’, back down on Earth things are only getting worse.
