Israel’s ceasefire is a façade
The Gaza ceasefire has proven to be a diplomatic fiction. The reality is one of daily bombardments, a strangled humanitarian lifeline, and a military campaign expanding into the West Bank and Lebanon.
Lammy’s attack on jury trials is a class issue
For the working class, the jury is not just a legal institution; it is a fragile but crucial check on state and corporate power. Its proposed dismantling exposes the ruling class’s fear of popular judgment and its drive to streamline repression.
Against Trump’s escalating interventionism in Venezuela, Colombia, and Latin America
The solution to the Venezuelan crisis will not come from the bourgeois opposition or from a US intervention, as it can only be forged from within the Venezuelan people and its working class, on condition that they reorganise, mobilise in unity of action, and recover their capacity to fight, with an authentic revolutionary leadership, for power and the democratic and anti-capitalist transformation of the country together with the anti-imperialist struggle of all the Latin American peoples.

On 14 December 1825, Senate Square in St Petersburg, capital of the Russian Empire, witnessed 3,000 officers and soldiers from the imperial guards’ regiments drawn up in ranks refusing to swear allegiance to the new Tsar, Nicholas I, shouting instead for a constitutional monarchy. Two weeks later, a further uprising in Ukraine also denounced the autocracy in what became known as the Decembrist uprising.
Migration – a manufactured crisis

Your Party – it’s founded, now let’s build it
Against all the odds, Your Party’s founding conference in Liverpool was a success – not only for the party, which at various points looked like it wouldn’t get off the ground, but for the left wing, the activists, who recorded some significant victories.
