TREMBLE GOVERNMENTS, THE YOUTH IS RISING UP! : Some will come and lecture us about unbearable violence, brandishing images of burning trash cans. Some will call for calm, for order, for the parents of these supposedly irresponsible young people who allegedly do not know what they are doing to step in. Some will praise the actions of this so-called Republican police force which, once again, is running unchecked under the orders of a government backed into a corner. They beat, tear-gas and maim a generation rising up, all while treating them like children. Young people have no lessons to learn from them! Young people are rising up to demand respect, equality and the resources they need to learn. They are rising up to build a future worthy of their dreams. This exemplary generation is rebelling against Parcoursup ( Academic portal of the French Ministry of Education ) and its unfair system of selection, against racist laws and the normalisation of f...

Halloween riots as youth uprising pushes on : Halloween weekend saw mass protests throughout France , Albania , Germany , Switzerland and Portugal , with riots erupting across multiple cities. As Gen Z–led insurrections flare up globally, a neo-fascist surge has risen steadily alongside them. In the UK, the assault on Freedom Bookshop sounds a clear warning and a reminder that the street-level provocations escalating across the country over the past few years are happening for a reason. Systemic actors seek to keep the youth’s insurgent tendencies in check, deliberately redirecting anger toward vulnerable groups such as migrants . This manufactured resentment is predictable amid ever-increasing housing and living costs for the working classes, pushing an increasing number of people to the margins. At a time when Western superpowers engage in proxy wars and genocides abroad while leading an arms race at home, they ask their citizens to live with less and prepare for dis...

Labour and the budget: same old same old (with a side of pickles) : When Chancellor of the Exchequer John Healey presented his budget on Wednesday October 28 th he said: “This is a Budget for the working people of Britain. For British businesses, big and small.”  Well, no. It offered little to working people, and plenty to businesses, to the military and to the defence industry. We were offered the pittance of 86p a week off of electricity bills. In addition, there will be a £100 one-off winter fuel payment for 20 million households in council tax bands A to D. This will almost immediately be wiped out by a predicted rise by £276 in January, to just under £2,000 a year. Another forecast from the EDF energy company, predicted that it might rise higher than this. Healey introduced a £2 cap on single bus fares in England from January 2027. But, for example, many workers and students in London cannot afford to live in inner London and must make long journeys by bus...

Buying politicians in the Land of the Free : It’s election season in the US again this month, with midterm House and Senate contests likely to see a strong backlash against Donald Trump’s MAGA cult. Elections in the US are never free and fair—for one thing, they’re enormously expensive—but the overt threats from the current administration against election officials seem reminiscent of events at the denouement of Trump’s previous term in November 2020 to January 2021.. Nonetheless, the ubiquity of money in politics in the Land of the Free is a constant. Eighteen years ago in the presidential election that brought Barack Obama into office, our friend Louis Further covered the extent to which rich donors sought to evade campaign finance rules with great success. Since then, times have changed for the worse. The infamous Citizens United Supreme Court decision of 2010 treated corporations as people, and struck down limits on what corporations could spend in elections (ironically o...
