The Spark: Steel decline, Burberry lay-offs, Italian dockers, nurses, P&O boss 18.03.2026 18:41
Read the February 2026 issue of our industrial matters free sheet as a pdf: https://s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/s3.cpgb-ml.org/TheSpark004.pdf With farcical brazenness, a Dubai-based asset stripper has suggested it might buy the remnants of Liberty Steel with help from the UK’s National Wealth Fund. Despite weasel words from politicians of all stripes about ‘saving jobs’ and ‘saving steel’, the tru...
Reforming justice or protecting power? The abolition of jury trials in Britain 16.03.2026 12:38
As imperialism struggles to hide its dictatorial and exploitative character, increasingly repressive measures are being introduced. Following the summer riots of 2011, the justice system faced an enormous backlog. With Keir Starmer as director of public prosecutions (DPP), 24-hour court sittings were introduced, clearing thousands of cases in weeks. Clearly, if the ruling class wants to clear a ba...
Inspirational women: Agent Sonya – the heroine housewife 15.03.2026 35:57
The origins of International Working Women’s Day lie in socialist organising and in the understanding that women’s oppression is rooted in class society. Subscribe! Donate!

Iran: Inside the colour revolution 14.03.2026 16:04
The Iranian people freed themselves from colonial subjugation and vicious comprador rule in 1979. Since then, they have maintained their economic and political sovereignty in the teeth of endless hybrid warfare aimed at sabotaging their country’s economy, hindering its development, and pressurising the people to submit. Iran’s determined struggle to maintain its independence and sovereignty, and i...
Hands off Venezuela! Free President Maduro! 13.03.2026 10:39
British workers must organise themselves to stop the Nato war machine in its tracks. By shredding what remains of the ‘international order’ the USA has claimed to uphold, the imperialists have demonstrated not strength but the weakness of their position. They have been unable to launch a ground invasion, and the government of Venezuela still stands. Subscribe! Donate! Join us in building a bright...
The 1926 british GENERAL STRIKE 12.03.2026 2:55:23
https://shop.thecommunists.org/product/1926-british-general-strike-2009/ After the defeat of Chartism in the middle of the 19th century, the General Strike of 1926 was the most momentous event in the history of the British working class, with tremendous revolutionary potential. However, it was defeated by the combined forces of the British state, the TUC and the Labour Party. This pamphlet is desi...
Comrade Ali speaks out on Iran 12.03.2026 7:15
After the naked imperialist aggression on Iran by the Zionist entity and the U.S have made inevitable long term full scale war. Which resulting in the martyred of 165 school children and the martyrdom of Sayid Ali Khamenie. This act of war has achieved nothing but the complete relativization of Iran and Iran is out for revenge. Since then Iran has reigned fire on all of the Imperialist military ba...
Joti Brar and David Miller Hands off Iran 12.03.2026 1:10:19
Joti Brar and David Miller speaking at our meeting (Hands off Iran!) the day before Trump and Netanyahu launched their illegal and aggressive war on Iran. The meeting went ahead despite pressure from the Zionists, Iranian Monarchists and their British imperialist backers. The Iranian people freed themselves from colonial subjugation and vicious comprador rule in 1979. Since then, they have maintai...
France tries to pursue ‘a la carte’ capitalism and fails 11.03.2026 16:07
There is no menu from which one can select fairness without expropriation, stability without class struggle, or prosperity without exploitation. The push-back against austerity from a relatively militant and organised working class has led to a situation where many French politicians and economists are seriously discussing the possibility of a wealth tax. As ever, the super-rich are united in oppo...
Iran attack sparks revolution in gulf states – Garland Nixon & Joti Brar, ep 56 10.03.2026 1:20:54
Reproduced from @garlandn with thanks. • IMPERIALISM: DECADENT & DOOMED W/JOTI BRAR... This week I talked with Garland Nixon about the illegal and aggressive war that has been launched by US imperialism and its Israeli zionist proxies against Iran. What are the wider ramifications for the politics and economics of the middle east? What could it mean for workers in Europe and the west? Apparently...
Bolivian workers’ thirst for a decent life remains unquenched 09.03.2026 19:05
Rights to exploit Bolivia’s lithium will likely be offered to western investors, instead of the Russian and Chinese companies that were given preferential access by MAS. Former president Evo Morales and his followers remain the great imponderable of Bolivian politics – the 65-year-old veteran politician still has the power to mobilise masses of the populace. But for the moment, the long-suffering...
Morning Star’s shameful regurgitation of imperialist lies against Iran 08.03.2026 6:28
Journalism has a responsibility to distinguish between documentation and propaganda, between verified evidence and politically motivated claims. The Morning Star used this photograph to accompany its article. Reinforcing the western psyops narrative, it depicts women protesters in Paris demanding ‘freedom’ for Iran and for Iranian women in particular – one of the preferred ‘leftist’ narratives for...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYt9H6wPKOs Comrade Vikki gives this moving presentation to Mark international women’s day 2026. Drawing in the life of Ursula Kuczynski, a German-Jewish communist who became a high-ranking Soviet spy, code-named "Sonya", she brings out the salient features of Ursula / Sonia’s life. 1. She was a revolutionary, taking her full part in the liberation of the working cl...
Bulgaria’s entry into the eurozone and the struggle against imperialism 07.03.2026 13:12
Working-class Bulgarians have begun to realise the hollowness of bourgeois ‘democracy’ as the decision to join the eurozone is implemented over their protests. The principled participation of communists in the recent anti-eurozone movement in Bulgaria has done much to bring the movement out of the fringes, where it has languished since the fall of socialism in eastern Europe. The stage is now set...
Hands off Cuba! Defend the people’s right to sovereignty and socialism 07.03.2026 4:33
British workers must mobilise to protect Cuba and stop the USA’s dastardly regime-change plans. The Cuban people have a long and glorious history of facing down imperialist threats and sabotage. Working people all over the world must mobilise in support as they face fresh aggression from the bloodthirsty imperialist warmongers. Subscribe! Donate!

Jacques Baud: How the EU literally starves dissenting experts 06.03.2026 14:12
No one is safe from the ‘Russian propaganda’ sanctions – even those who make a point of avoiding Russian sources for fear of being branded as ‘biased’. The increasingly fascistic response by western regimes to inconvenient journalism and activism may act to chill speech for some, but for others it is merely highlighting the need to speak up louder and get better organised against a system that has...
Greetings to the ninth congress of the Workers’ Party of Korea 06.03.2026 3:58
In times of global upheaval, the DPRK stands as a powerful beacon of peace, sovereignty and development, guided by its tried and tested socialist leadership. Korea’s ruling communist party is meeting at a time when the crisis-ridden imperialist camp threatens every sovereign nation with sanctions, sabotage and war in its quest to bring back profitability and restore its fading global dominance. Co...
Iranian regime-change troops play their part on the streets of London 05.03.2026 9:37
CIA/MI6/Mossad-backed monarchist stooges appear on cue to stage their demonstrations for the cameras. We note that the endlessly recycled pro-zionist and anti-Iranian talking points, until recently taken at face value by the vast majority of British citizens and challenged only by a handful of committed anti-imperialists, are finally starting to wear thin. Today, Iranian and Yemeni flags are appea...
How Wall Street overthrows governments 04.03.2026 4:48
Clip taken from: Epstein-Israel-US-Britain: who is the enemy? ( • Epstein-Israel-US-Britain: who is the enemy? ) The Marxist understanding of the state is that the state is tool of oppression by one class against another class. Naturally then, the modern state with its components (the courts, the police, and the military) are at the fingers of the capitalists who are able to influence them. As Com...
Who rules and controls Britain 03.03.2026 4:44
Clip taken from: Epstein-Israel-US-Britain: who is the enemy? ( • Epstein-Israel-US-Britain: who is the enemy? ) The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles. The genocide in Palestine is not separated but rather interviewed with the class struggle in the capitalist economic mode between the modern working class, the proletariat, and the modern ruling class, the b...

Backing down from Iran the free market meltdown - Garland Nixon & Joti Brar Ep55 02.03.2026 1:13:01
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAh3BRHpljQ&t=1s 27 Feb 2026 Garland Nixon and Joti Brar Reproduced from @garlandn with thanks. • IMPERIALISM: DECADENT & DOOMED W/JOTI BRAR... This week I spoke with Garland Nixon about the prospects for war on Iran. Is it possible that the imperialists can find a way to dig themselves out of the hole they are in? What do we mean when we say they are ‘damned if t...
Victory to Iran - Joti Brar 01.03.2026 10:30
On the morning of 28 Feb 2026, President Trump announced and the USA launched its much anticipated war upon the people of Iran. CPGB-ML condemns unequivocally the unprovoked, aggressive and Illegal War. The USA is the principal terrorist state in the world. They are now launching another chapter in their long genocidal history. They have begun their long prepared war on Iran. It is a criminal war...
China wins latest round of hybrid war with the USA 01.03.2026 18:02
How the Trump regime was forced into ignominious retreat from the trade war it announced with such fanfare just months before. The latest round of the US-led hybrid war against China revealed just how badly weakened the machinery of imperial coercion has become. Sanctions, tariffs, export controls and military pressure – the full spectrum of hybrid warfare – have repeatedly failed to produce their...
Argentine politics-lost in the labyrinth 28.02.2026 25:15
It’s high time the Argentine working class moves past the failures of ‘Peronism’ and towards a genuine and organised communist-led movement against imperialism. As in the past during the Menem, De la Rua and Macri administrations, now again since 2023 and the election of Javier Milei, many Peronist legislators and governors who were elected on a platform of social progress have changed sides, aban...
