Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has become something of a sensation for his opposition to the Iran war. Some have claimed Britain needs their own Sánchez, but is he really a model for fighting imperialism and capitalism?

you say we need a revolution but;
are you ready to read theory?
are you ready to sell a newspaper?
are you ready to attend branch meetings?
are you ready to prepare speeches?
and...
are you ready to join the rcp?
I'm less interested in dying for the revolution than LIVING for it
I'm absolutely gobsmacked that a left trade union leader (SWP-aligned) and the Morning Star (a 'Communist' paper!) are backing the establishment's coordinated campaign to push through a social media ban for under-16s.
What world are these people living in? They want the granny-snatching, migrant-bashing, prisoner-starving Starmer government to enforce a social media ban for the most radicalised, revolutionary generation in memory?
This is the generation that is organising revolutionary struggles in Nepal, Bangladesh, Indonesia, etc. – in part owing to social media allowing the spread of ideas and information.
This policy would just hand more repressive powers to the state, carte blanche.
Of course social media is bad for mental health – because it is ran by billionaire tech oligarchs seeking profits, and dominated by right-wing grifters with big-business backing.
The solution isn't to rely on our class enemies to police young people (which will be useless anyway) but to nationalise and democratise the big tech monopolies.
If this ban is carried out – as it was in Australia – I think young people will erupt in anger. Will these 'lefts' stand on the side of the youth – or on the side of Starmer, Badenoch, and Co.?
And now the US threatens Cuba!
The rotten truth about western imperialism has been exposed in the minds of millions through their genocide in Gaza.
NO ONE BELIEVES IN THEIR STATEMENTS CONCERNING “DEMOCRACY”
The biggest terrorists on earth sit in THE WHITE HOUSE.
The situation in Venezuela is fast moving, we will establish all the facts and speak to allies.
Our embassy in Caracas is working to ensure all British nationals in Venezuela are supported.
This cretin can wash his hands of culpability all he wants. The fact remains that British imperialism has done nothing but ostracise, sanction, and provoke the Venezuelan government since the Bolivarian Revolution.
The UK government is still holding onto $2 billion of STOLEN Venezuelan gold, and as little as two years ago sent a Naval warship to Venezuela's doorstep, in a deliberate provocation. Imagine the reaction if Venezuela sent a warship to the English channel!
The only thing the UK government is good for is licking the boots of US imperialism.
"The grand destroyer of the world, and the greatest threat is represented by U.S. imperialism...
"Let the dogs of the empire bark, that’s their job; ours is to battle to achieve the true liberation of our people.
"Let’s save the human race, let’s finish off the U.S. empire."
– Hugo Chávez

This afternoon, Palestine Action has been proscribed as a terrorist group. This is nothing short of an attempt to criminalise the Palestine movement. In response, we joined an emergency protest at Trafalgar Square to say: Hands off Palestine Action! https://t.co/W0HxmZwX12
