What is Britain’s place in the world? The British ruling class has been asking itself this question for the best part of a hundred years, as it has struggled to come to terms with its ever-deepening decline, decade after decade.

Last Thursday, on the Jewish holy day of Yom Kippur, a British-Syrian man carried out a knife attack at a synagogue in Manchester, killing one and injuring two. The attacker, Jihad Al-Shamie, was shot dead by police on the scene.

We are living in an era of revolution and counter-revolution; of both reaction and radicalisation. In the famous words of Rosa Luxemburg, the future facing humanity is either socialism or barbarism.

The monster ‘Unite the Kingdom’ demonstration on Saturday 13 September marks a turning point. Some are calling it the biggest far-right demonstration in British history. This event deserves a thorough – but sober – analysis.

Angela Rayner’s rapid fall from high office must have brought to mind a parody of the pleas of Richard III during the battle of Bosworth Field: “A house, a house, my kingdom for a house”.

The announcement by Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana of a new party on Thursday has provoked a strong wave of support and enthusiasm.

Today, Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana announced the launch of a new left party, aimed at taking on the “corporations and billionaires” and their “rigged system”. The RCP is getting on board. Fight for real change! Fight for revolution!

Left MP Zarah Sultana has publicly announced her resignation from the Labour Party and called for the formation of a new left party, co-led by former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.

This weekend over two hundred thousand festival goers flocked to sleepy Somerset to attend the Glastonbury Festival for five days of music, sun, beer, and peace, love and unity.

The British government intends to pass legislation proscribing Palestine Action, effectively branding it a terrorist organisation, equivalent to al-Qaeda and Islamic State, with all the consequences that carries.

The British establishment have ramped up their witch hunt against Kneecap. Band member Mo Chara was charged with a terror offence for arousing “reasonable suspicion that he is a supporter of a proscribed organisation, namely Hezbollah.”

The second congress of the RCP was an electric event, like none other – rich in political understanding, revolutionary enthusiasm, and infectious confidence. There has never been a better time to get organised and join the communists!

Electoral success for Nigel Farage’s Reform in yesterday’s local and regional contests across Britain has provoked panic in Labour and Tory HQs alike. Britain’s political landscape is fracturing, as the centre ground collapses. Revolutionary upheavals impend.

I recently read the article ‘Just Stop Oil and Youth Demand: How can we build a mass movement?’ in The Communist, and it resonated with me as someone who has made the journey from Just Stop Oil (JSO) and direct action, to the Revolutionary Communist Party (RCP) [British section of the Revolutionary Communist International] and class struggle.
