From France to Italy, we’ve seen huge general strikes erupt against austerity and the continued warmongering of the European ruling classes.
In this episode of A World on Fire, Fiona Lali and Khaled Malachi discuss how such strikes could be built here in Britain — and the leading role students could play by drawing on the history of May ’68.
Former prime minister Tony Blair has risen from the dead to potentially oversee Trump’s proposed “Board of Peace” in Gaza. The fact that this war criminal has anything to do with a so-called ‘peace’ plan exposes the cynical nature of the entire project.
Last Friday was incredible. A political general strike against the genocide in Gaza shut down Italy. It is an enormous source of inspiration and possibility, with the conditions which arose to such a strike not being unique to Italy. We must draw the necessary lessons.
In this episode, we cover the Gen Z revolution from Madagascar to Morocco, student & worker mobilizations across Europe, the intensifying West Bank occupation, and how unions in Britain can help strengthen the movement to halt genocide.
