IV569 - June 2022

“These days have shown that the only possible politics and democracy is that of the people, in the streets, the tumultuous.”

“The State of Emergency and the increase in repression may yet be able to contain social struggle, but only for now.”

“This desire to organize popular control is the result of recent experience of negotiations after the revolution where the resistance committees were discarded in favour of the political class.”

Two quite different labor meetings have taken place this month. The labor bureaucracy organized one. Rank-and-file workers were at the center of the other.

“It is impossible to overstate how far basic rights can be driven back if the attacks aren’t forcefully resisted.”

“Anyone who wants Britain to become a high wage economy, values public services and wants to address the climate crisis should support these strikes.”

“The economic, social, political, ecological and even moral crisis (with revelations of the theft of public money by state officials) has reached a critical level.”

“All of this makes the Attorney General’s decision critical, but even indictment and conviction would not stop Trump from running for president. There would have to be a change in the minds of the American people.”

Clear victories for anti-liberal forces in overseas territories.
