PRMI supporters in Britain define political outlook

PRMI reporters 30 July, 2025

Although a vibrant, democratic mass left wing party will be a very important step forward, it does not remove the necessity of a revolutionary Marxist organisation. The reality is that left formations can grow very rapidly, and even challenge for political power, but if they confine themselves to a reformist programme, ameliorating and softening the harshness of capitalism rather than seeking to overthrow it, they will end up in power simply operating capitalism to the detriment of the mass of the people.

It’s a new holocaust – stop the genocide in Gaza

Donal Devlin Socialist Party, Ireland 25 July, 2025

A new ‘holocaust’ is perhaps the only term that accurately characterises the horror we’re now seeing in Gaza. From the very beginning of this genocide, the denial of food, fuel and water has been used as a weapon of war against two million Palestinians living in the world’s largest concentration camp.

New left party announced as Starmer’s government flails.

Cerys Keane PRMI in Wales 25 July, 2025

Polls show a new left formation could pose a real threat to Labour. 140,000 have signed up in the first 10 hours. Labour’s 2017 vote under Corbyn’s leadership was 3.2 million more than Starmer’s ‘landslide’ 2024 election. Interestingly, before it has even been formed, polls indicate somewhere between 10-18% of voters said they would support the new party.

Frantz Fanon at 100: Review of ‘A Dying Colonialism’

Manus Lenihan Socialist Party, Ireland 22 July, 2025

Frantz Fanon wrote with conviction. His statements were bold, categorical and challenging. His voice still rings out clear today, whether raised in anger against racism or in support of peoples struggling for freedom.

Adapting to a new era: the post-WWII Fourth international

Nicolas Croes PRMI in Belgium 22 July, 2025

For Marxists, any outlook is conditional. Many economic, political and social factors arise and interact with each other. At any given time, it is crucial to evaluate and adapt the perspectives that have been mapped out, because it is these that provide the guide for revolutionary action. A fundamentally different development from the one anticipated can occur, and clinging to dated perspectives is a mistake for which there is always a heavy price to pay. Unfortunately, this is what happened with the Fourth International.

Women workers in India participate in general strike

Millions down tools in ‘Bharat Bandh’ in resounding rebuke to Modi government

Socialist Struggle PRMI in India 11 July, 2025

The elephant in the room is the crisis at the heart of the trade union movement; many of its leaderships are affiliated with opposition parties that have a record of embracing pro-corporate policies themselves, and treat these strikes as symbolic pressure tactics —not stepping stones toward a sustained and escalating movement.

Kate Nash calls out TERF ideology in blistering new single

Kate Quinlan Socialist Party, Ireland 1 July, 2025

From a socialist feminist perspective, GERM is more than a protest song. It’s a manifesto that interrogates power, challenges capitalist co-optation of feminism, and calls out the scapegoating of a vulnerable minority to distract from the material conditions oppressing all women and gender minorities.

Zohran Mamdani victory – Billionaire establishment defeated in New York

Isidora Duran Socialist Party, Ireland 1 July, 2025

The stark contrast between the two frontrunners in this election was a reflection of the sharpening political polarisation throughout society. New York City is home of key players of US capitalism, with over 100 billionaires as well as the world’s largest stock exchange.
On the other hand, one in four people are living in poverty.
