Strikes in France demonstrate the benefits and limits of trade union action

Why are French workers being forced to endlessly fight the same battles? Proletarian writers The militancy of French workers and their unions is often the subject of envy amongst the class-conscious in Britain. Yet even with the benefit of these splendid fighting organisations and a readiness to take to the streets in defence of their rights, the French working class finds that at best it can only slow down the pace of decline that is forced on it by relentless pressure from the exploiters. The wave of strikes paralysing France should be an inspiration to trade unions in Britain, demonstrating how powerful workers can be when they organise themselves in defence of their class interests. On 7 February, France effectively ground to a halt. Thre...

China sets out new foreign policy approach: oppose US unilateralism

The CPC has officially acknowledged that the ‘agreement incapable’ USA is set on hegemony and confrontation. Proletarian writers The Chinese foreign ministry’s new position paper clearly marks a transition in China-US relations. In this new era, the reality of US aggression, hostility and hypocrisy are clearly identified and opposed by the PRC. The relationship between US imperialism and People’s Republic Of China (PRC) has been marked by contradictions and antagonisms even during the periods of relatively positive relations. In recent years, however, the antagonisms have increased dramatically. This has led the Chinese foreign ministry increasingly to criticise US government actions in public – and these criticisms have been mounting in frequency...

The Labour left still lost in its labyrinth

Starmer’s refusal to allow Corbyn to rejoin Labour has highlighted the true loyalties of the party’s supposed ‘left-wingers’. Proletarian writers Are there any amongst the so-called ‘socialists’ in the parliametary Labour party who are prepared to back their former leader by seriously jeopardising their seats in parliament and jettisoning the chance to be part of the next government in order to defend their alleged ‘principles’? In a recent article for the Times, prominent Conservative Lord Daniel Finkelstein argued that “Keir Starmer has challenged the left of Labour in a fundamental way”, and cited three reasons for making his assertion. First, he averred that Starmer’s refusal to allow Jeremy Corbyn to be selected as a Labour candidate in ...

French communists: A revolutionary crisis is developing in France

If properly directed, workers’ action has the power to sweep away not only the rule of Emmanuel Macron but of the entire French bourgeoisie. French communist orgs The true face of the French state has been clearly revealed in the way that it has responded to workers’ resistance to a renewed attack on their pensions. On the one hand, running battles between striking workers and tooled-up riot police have become a daily occurrence across the country, while on the other, the prime minister has shocked the country by invoking an emegency clause, article 49.3, in the French constitution in order to enact the hated ‘reform’ by decree when it became clear that the parliament could no longer be relied upon to pass it. The following joint statement was issued by French revolutionary commu...

Nazi persecution of Palestinians taken to a new level

Israeli persecution of Palestinianstaken to a new level Since the start of 2023 until 30 January we saw 35 Palestinian people murdered by either the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) or the even more blood-thirsty (if that is possible) Zionist settler movement, a fact which is marked mostly by its near total absence from the TV and newspaper reports emitting from within the multi-headed imperialist Western media leviathan. While many of these were young people, six were under 18 and can only be described as children. Because they are hidden by our media we have decided to name the slaughtered Palestinian people who died in January 2023 and give some brief details of age, place and method of their murder by the Zionist occupation forces both official and unofficial: Moham...

The murder of Tyre Nichols

On the evening of January 7, in a poor, mainly black, area of Memphis, a 29 year old black man driving home in his car was stopped by police and beaten to death. Tyre Nichols had committed no traffic violation that can be found on any traffic cameras, police car cams or the officers’ body cams. The only ‘evidence’ to link him to any crime at all comes solely from the mouths of the officers who murdered him and that is contradicted by all the available camera evidence. Another black man killed by police in the USA doesn’t qualify as surprising news. In fact, it is just another name on an incredibly long list, but this one is a little different. All five of the police officers who committed this murder are also black, part of a special unit, mainly made up of black of...

The French proletariat fights for its pension and retirement rights

France, like every other European nation is reeling under the combined weight of (1) self-inflicted financial meltdown as the Euro economies are throwing themselves and their workers to the wolves in a futile effort to save US hegemony, and (2) the ever-present cyclical crises of overproduction within the capitalist system which always lead to financial stagnation, destitution for many poorer people and wars of terrible ferocity, spoliation and brigandage on a massive scale. President Macron has fought battles with the French working class before, notably taking on transport workers, students and others in 2018 when he brought forward his road fuel tax that brought out onto the streets all over France thousands of Yellow Vests (gilets jaunes) – who kept up their highly militant...

British local councils are going bankrupt with consequent loss of public services

As if it were not bad enough that wages are not keeping up with inflation, that the cost of living has soared and the NHS is being bled to death by privateers and successive British governments dedicated to medical privatisation, it is now coming more and more to light that local councils are in serious financial trouble and most will be forced to cut back harshly on the services they provide in order to avoid insolvency. A poll in November 2022 of local authorities found that 4 out of 5 feared that they faced imminent insolvency, and some have already gone under: “Thurrock council’s spending will exceed its income by nearly £500 million this year, thanks to a series of disastrous investments that have plunged the borough into effective bankruptcy” reported Andrew Ellson of&...
