Airline industry

Privatisation and airport chaos

June 11, 2022 An airport worker, London

The problems of the airline industry predate the pandemic and stretch back to privatisation in the 1980s. In the post-war period, governments invested billions in the creation of the worldwide airline industry. This investment was […]

Scotland

Scottish National Party /Green spending review is Thatcherism on steroids

June 10, 2022 Philip Stott, Socialist Party Scotland (CWI)

The Scottish National Party/Scottish Green government’s spending review for the next five years has set in stone a regime of brutal cuts to jobs and public services. It is also a declaration of war on […]

Nigeria

Nigeria’s 2023 general elections: For mass struggle and building of a working people’s political alternative!

June 9, 2022 H.T Soweto, Democratic Socialist Movement (CWI Nigeria)

In the absence of a genuine mass workers’ political alternative, it is now beyond doubt that the 2023 general elections in Nigeria will be dominated by two old, virulently anti-worker, anti-poor, and incurably corrupt presidential […]

Britain

Britain: Tory MPs revolt against prime minister Johnson

June 8, 2022 Editorial of the Socialist (issue 1183), weekly paper of the Socialist Party (CWI England & Wales)

One hundred and forty-eight Tory MPs have finally moved against UK Prime Minister, Boris Johnson. It is not growing poverty, soaring energy bills, or Johnson’s endless parties and lies that have pushed them to act: […]

Nigeria

Nigeria: Massacre at Catholic church

June 7, 2022 Peluola Adewale, Organising Secretary, Democratic Socialist Movement (CWI Nigeria)

The Democratic Socialist Movement (DSM) condemns the tragic attack on St. Francis Catholic Church Owo, Ondo State by yet-to-be-identified gunmen on Sunday 5 June 2022. We join Nigerians to mourn the scores who died while […]

South Africa

Heroic Sibanye strike highlights tactical issues facing South African workers’ movement

June 7, 2022 Shaun Arendse, Marxist Workers Party (CWI South Africa)

The temperature of the class struggle is rising. 2022 has already seen a whole number of strikes in mining, metal, manufacturing, on farms, and in the public sector. Some have been brief skirmishes as workers […]

The State

Police spying on activists on an industrial scale

June 4, 2022 Paul Heron, Public Interest Law Centre solicitor (personal capacity) and Hackney Socialist Party (CWI England & Wales)

The Special Demonstration Squad (SDS) was established in 1968 in Britain. At its inception it was a secret unit of undercover police officers created to infiltrate, monitor and record the activities of the Vietnam Solidarity […]

The State

Britain: Queen’s Platinum Jubilee – What’s to celebrate?

June 3, 2022 Paula Mitchell, Socialist Party (CWI England & Wales)

According to the Roman poet Juvenal, the ancient Roman emperors aimed to placate their subjects with “bread and circuses”. It would seem that the capitalist class in Britain is hoping for a similar effect with […]

Britain

Britain: Tories prepare for class war escalation, union leaders must act

June 2, 2022 Editorial of the Socialist (issue 1182), weekly paper of the Socialist Party (CWI England & Wales)

Tory chancellor Rishi Sunak’s screeching windfall tax U-turn was a vain attempt to cut across growing anger at falling living standards, and the mass protests that could result. As even the right-wing Sunday Times pointed […]

Germany

Germany – consequences of the Ukraine war, and perspectives for class struggle

June 1, 2022 By Tom Hoffmann, Sozialistische Organisation Solidarität Executive

The world has changed since the war in Ukraine began. Like the coronavirus – which not only shut down the world but also accelerated profound changes in economic, political and social relations – the war […]
