The Nordic left is making great strides in its thinking on questions of popular defence and security in Europe. This reflection is nourished by its sustained and permanent commitment in favour of Ukraine. It actively supports Ukrainian trade unions and social movements as well as progressive anti-fascist fighters who combat Russian imperialism.

After an inspiring four days on strike, Air Canada flight attendants are now voting on a tentative agreement (TA) that offers significant gains in pay. To get the TA, however, union officials also agreed to sacrifice the workers' right to reject the whole deal and fight for more. Canadian socialist David Camfield explains the unusual circumstances of this struggle—and the unusual deal that ended it.
Flight attendants at Air Canada (AC) and Air Canada Rouge, around 10,500 workers, went on (…)

Many of us were on vacation last month, but President Donald Trump was hard at work, dismantling American democracy and creating a reactionary authoritarian state. Trump, in an attempt to take personal and absolute control of the federal government in unprecedented moves of dubious legality, terminated three top level government officials.

We write from Ukraine with respect for your courage and in solidarity with the people of Palestine. Having lived through invasion, occupation, forced displacement, and separation from our loved ones, many of us know too well what these mean.

The death of Affan Kurniawan, an online motorcycle taxi driver who participated in mass action and was run over by security apparatus vehicles, cannot be viewed as an isolated incident.

The Ukrainian left acts where official systems fail. Bjarke Friborg and Helene Vadsten visited Solidarity Collectives in Ukraine. Here is Helene's accout of the visit.

South Africans have been bombarded with criticisms of South Africa's Expropriation Act in recent months. It has even become a major talking point on social media platforms. One unforgettable moment was the infamous scene on national television featuring claims of “mass graves and killings” of white farmers, an absurd spectacle promoted by Trump and his allies in the White House. This propaganda video claimed that white farmers were being systematically murdered, feeding the narrative that the Expropriation Act was a tool for reverse racial discrimination, land seizure and genocide.

The famines in Gaza and Sudan: how they compare and what lessons can be drawn from the world powers' inaction towards them.

Does Trump's peace deal have a future?

The more I talk with cis people on the left, the more I realise how out of touch they are with the realities faced by the trans community. Whenever the discrimination we face enters conversations, a chorus of voices responds to tell everyone that “the left” needs to “prioritise working class issues” and not be “distracted” from “genuine material concerns”. In the interest of educating cis comrades who've been misled by this framing, today we're going to use a mix of studies, surveys and anecdotal evidence to explore the life of the average trans person in Wales. Let's see how well the picture of trans people as comfortable middle class ideologues holds up to scrutiny…

The closure of Goodyear in Kariega (formerly called Uitenhage) is more than just another company shutting its doors. It is a brutal reminder of the structural crisis facing South Africa's working class. Factories, once held as pillars of stability, are now abandoned shells, as corporations chase profits across borders, discarding workers like disposable tools.

As al-Sharaa leads Syria further towards normalisation with Israel, Joseph Daher argues that alignment with the US & its allies won't bring lasting stability.

IN A LONG rant of over 70 minutes at an August 10 news conference, Trump claimed that the nation's capital, Washington, D.C., “has been overtaken by violent gangs and bloodthirsty criminals, roving mobs of wild youth, drugged-out maniacs, and homeless people. And we are not going to take it anymore.”
