In her latest column for The Communist, Fiona Lali reflects upon the enormous Palestine demonstration, the far right attempting to march through East London this weekend, and Your Party. But all illustrate the need for revolutionary ideas.
This Saturday, the far-right political organisation UKIP had intended to march on Whitechapel. The police have just announced a Public Order Act banning the assembly in Tower Hamlets, but they remain a threat. The working class can only rely on its own strength!
While Britain’s children go hungry, and pensioners fear freezing to death, Starmer’s Labour decided to set aside time in parliament to overturn a ban on violent Zionist hooligans from attending a football game in Birmingham. What a sick joke!
Paul Thomas Anderson’s latest film is an action thriller set against a backdrop of revolutionary struggle. Depicting individual terror, brutal repression of immigrants and the left, and racist elites pulling the strings, this cinematic masterpiece captures the zeitgeist of Trump-era America.
