Model motion: No cooperation with genocide in Palestine!

Trade unions must mobilise the organised power of the working class to force an end to British complicity in the zionists’ atrocities. Proletarian writers Subscribe to our  channel Dockers in many ports around the world, including in Spain and Belgium, have refused to handle weapons bound for Israel. British workers must join this campaign and go further, refusing all assistance to the genocidal apartheid Israeli regime. Note to trade unionists: The following text has been compiled to help those who want to submit a motion on this topic to their union branch or annual congress. Feel free to take as much or as little as you deem suitable, depending on the rules operating in your organisation, and to choose from or adapt the final demands depending on the sector in whi...
International law or rules-based order?

International law or rules-based order?

Two days after the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruled in favour of South Africa’s prima facia case of genocide against Israel, Israel, and its primary sponsor the United States, along with the usual cohort of vassal states including Britain, all withdrew funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), which provides food and aid to Gaza. The very same people deprived of food, water, medical supplies and all other life supporting mechanisms whilst being bombed into oblivion by Israel using US and British weapons, have had what meagre support they had withdrawn. Whilst the withdrawal of UNWRA funding could be considered a war crime in itself, the action is in flagrant defiance of the ICJ’s ruling that found the charge...

OBITUARY – Gonzalo Lira

Reproduced from the Helsinki Times of 13 January 2024, with thanks Gonzalo Lira, a Chilean-American war commentator known for his critical views on the Zelensky regime and Russia-Ukraine conflict, passed away on January 11, 2024, in a hospital in Kharkiv, Ukraine. Lira’s death followed an eight-month imprisonment on charges of ”justifying Russia’s military actions in Ukraine”, sparking international controversy and raising questions about freedom of speech and human rights during wartime. Gonzalo Lira gained notoriety in 2022 as a vocal critic of what he perceived as increasing authoritarianism in Ukraine. Lira saw the conflict as a proxy war waged by US against Russia and criticised the loss of life for a futile and unwinnable war. His arrest in May 2023, under...

New alliance is a knock-out for NATO in the Sahel

Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger, by founding a new Alliance of Sahel States, have started a revolution in the continent’s geopolitics. Franklin Nyamsi Subscribe to our  channel Since the popular coup in Niger last August completed a trio of adjoining anti-imperialist revolutions in West Africa, the pace of decolonisation has continued to accelerate. Not only have French troops and organs of control been liquidated, but meaningful measures to enforce real sovereignty and improve the lives of the people are being implemented in Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso alike. Steady moves towards greater economic and military integration reflect the long suppressed pan-Africanist roots and aspirations of the region which gave birth to Thomas Sankara and Amilcar Cabral.

Cuban health workers vow to face down the genocidal US blockade

Solidarity aims must move on from the charitable aid mentality and work for the destruction of the imperialist system. Much is presented in Western corporate media regarding the parlous state of Cuba – its economy, food shortages, the flow of skilled, especially young workers overseas, shortages of every conceivable commodity – fuel, cement, medicines, educational materials etc. – that is essential to the building of a civilised life.  Little is said of the cause of this economic genocide. The cause is simply the illegal, criminal and ongoing US embargo, which for over 65 years has attempted to suffocate socialism, independence and national aspirations in Cuba.  The economics of genocide is exactly what the USA applies to Cuba. There may not be overt military interven...

Nicaragua, climate crisis and capitalism

In a recent webinar addressed by Ambassador Valdrack Jaentschke, who led the Nicaragua government delegation to the 2023 United Nations climate change conference in Dubai, more commonly known as Cop28, the ambassador explained how Nicaragua is combating climate change, both at home through its renewable energy and other programmes, and in the international arena through cooperation and by the power of its example in implementing policies that demonstrate a real concern for the earth (in contrast to imperialist greenwashing). He began by recalling the Paris climate conference of 2015. While Nicaragua upheld the position that the capitalist economic system is at the root of our environmental problems at that meeting, the majority of participants and all the meeting’s outcomes sim...

How unjust and cruel US sanctions impact on Cuba’s health provision

By Aymee Díaz Negrín – Presentation to the annual Latin American Conference held in London on 27 January 2024 I think when we talk about the US blockade against Cuba, many times we think only about the illegal and unilateral sanctions against a country or a government with a political system completely different from the US, but the blockade is not only against the Cuban government. It has a devastating impact on the Cuban population, especially in the education and health sectors, despite the Cuban government’s huge efforts to provide high quality medical services. Just to give you an idea about the impact of the US policy: between March 2022 and February 2023 the blockade cost the Cuban health sector almost 240 million dollars. I am going to mention some examples to bet...

Report from the courts

Given the lead given by the British government to encourage the forces of law and order to victimise those who support the Palestinian people in their struggles against the Zionist entity that is currently engaged in genocide in Gaza, it is both welcome and surprising that two judicial proceedings last month actually upheld, at least to some extent, the right of people to express their support for Palestine and their opposition to Zionism and the Zionist state that is Israel. David Miller at the employment tribunal Professor David Miller was sacked 2 years ago from his post as a lecturer at Bristol University because he had expressed anti-Zionist views, much to the distress of Zionist supporting students at the university who, as Zionists always do, tried to claim that his v...

Principled stand of the Morning Star against “political policing” – Lalkar’s appreciation and response

The following is the article by Andrew Murray that appeared in the Morning Star of 13 February, arguing that we must stand together against injustice regardless of political differences.  We appreciate their defence of our comrades, as we would stand to defend CPB members and comrades from any other organisation in a similar situation.  Nevertheless we do feel it necessary to correct some misapprehensions apparent in Andrew Murray’s article as to the political line of the CPGB-ML on the question of Zionism. WE MUST UNITE AGAINST THE NEW WAVE OF POLITICAL POLICING All shades of red must stand in total solidarity with any person or group, from the CPGB-ML to Socialist Appeal, that is facing the unprecedented attack on left-wing speech that began over the Gaza protest...
Tick. Tock. What did you do to prevent the genocide in Gaza, Daddy?

Tick. Tock. What did you do to prevent the genocide in Gaza, Daddy?

I waited as long as possible, and then negotiated to empty already toothless resolutions of all meaning, my son. On Wednesday 21 February, while British justice was in action figuring out how best to break all its own rules so as to accede to the wishes of US imperialism and extradite the persecuted journalist Julian Assange, the Mother of all Parliaments was making a mockery of another pillar of our hallowed British democracy by tying itself up in knots over the question of the ongoing genocide in Gaza. This heinous crime, unfolding in front of the horrified eyes of humanity, is one with which almost all our parliamentarians and parliamentary parties are complicit, but over which they are coming under increasing pressure from an irate and disgusted public. As a result, a...
