Other than the class struggle what all the members of the Project have in common is the beautiful game. We are all avid football fans.

With that in mind we are hoping to combine the two in our next podcast.
The changes in British football with the advent of the premiere league and the class element of the working man's sport.
Keep your eyes open for it's release.

"The oppressed peoples and nations must not pin their hopes for liberation on the "sensibleness" of imperialism and its lackeys. They will only triumph by strengthening their unity and persevering in their struggle."

The news that public trust in the police is at an all-time low will surprise nobody who has seen the steady degeneration of other state institutions, nor will it come as a revelation to anyone living in an area affected by crime.

A thread.

Boris' time is now up and the British ruling class want rid!

He was used to fight off the feared social democrat Corbyn after the close shave of 2017. Now that role has been fulfilled he's discarded for Sunak and Starmer to continue the established order.

The Housing Question – Class Consciousness Project
https://classconsciousnessproject.blog/2023/06/10/the-housing-question/

Listening to this hireling of finance capital, who happily colludes with every kind of crime against the workers and oppressed peoples of the world on a daily basis, talk about 'women's rights' is frankly sickening.

We do know the enemy Monsieur le président: it's people like you and the system you schill for.

Women's enemy isn't 'habit' or 'glass ceilings' or men, it's class society -- as represented today by the imperialist system and the financial uberlords who gain from the continued existence of that rotten and visibly decaying order.

Owen Jones being as accurate as ever in his predictions!

The matchgirls’ strike of 1888 | The Communists

The appalling amount of distress that exists in every town in Britain must arrest the attention of all duty-loving men and women. No one who sees the effects of want and the fear of want can passively behold the dire poverty of a large section of the workers. Rather will he probe and probe until he finds the cause of the disease. Socialists have probed and they find the disease of want to be spread by the profit-making system upon which all industry and society itself is based. They know that five or six centuries ago, without machinery, Englishmen obtained for their work sufficient to keep them in vigorous health and that they were not subject to periodical trade depressions; & when they further reflect upon the fact that the working day then consisted of no more than eight hours, no wonder that socialists are discontented with the present state of affairs, and that they resolve to use every means in their power to replace the present discord, misery, & anarchy, with harmony, happiness, and order.
- Tom Mann
