Bolsonaro's far-right supporters attempt to occupy Presidental palace

Trump’s 50% tariff on Brazil backfired on Bolsonaro

The organised working class and the entire progressive sector of the population eagerly awaited Bolsonaro’s arrest, which finally happened on Monday 4th of August when Moraes charged him with defying court orders after he appeared at rallies called by his supporters. It is worth remembering that not only was he the mastermind behind the coup attempt, but he is also guilty of many other crimes, from theft and corruption to deliberate negligence in the pandemic and inciting farmers to murder indigenous people and burn forests.

Trump and Epstein - best of friends

Trump regime being consumed by Epstein scandal

As more and more information emerges about the sordid relationship between these two obscenely rich sexual predators, the bulk of the media coverage tends to overlook the immense trauma suffered by the victims of Epstein and his network of powerful, ruling-class men. The truth has been hidden about so many aspects of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. However, what’s crystal clear is that the survivors have been completely failed by the justice system.

PRMI supporters in Britain define political outlook

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

A new ‘holocaust’ is perhaps the only term that accurately characterises the horror we’re now seeing in Gaza.

Zarah Sultana and Jeremy Corbyn

New left party announced as Starmer’s government flails.

Polls show a new left formation could pose a real threat to Labour. 140,000 have signed up in the first 10 hours.

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

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.

Kate Nash calls out TERF ideology in blistering new single 

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.
