Recently there has, rightly, been a scandal in Britain regarding the fact that the government here has been funding Ineos, to the tune of £600 million, to build refinery capacity in Belgium whilst cutting jobs at Grangemouth. This is hardly unique though in actual fact. The British government has done this before in the last decade where they spent over £1 billion on supporting fossil fuel related projects overseas in countries like Brazil. They also back carbon capture technologies, again in countries other than Britain. Why? Because it is too costly for the capitalist class to employ workers in this country to actually do these jobs. This is the core part of the reason. The British ruling class are absolutely determined to keep the country as deindustrialised as possible which means the formerly industrial areas all across Britain are left to go to ruin whilst investment flows out of the country into overseas projects. This is what late stage imperialism looks. The ruling class refuses to invest in Britain itself because it can reap far greater profits in other countries and also demands that the government cover their costs in doing so.

The recent detaining of Professor David Miller under schedule 7 of the Terrorism Act highlights once again that a very active group of zionist lobbyists are essentially acting as Britain’s unacknowledged political police.

An interesting conversation between Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Gary Neville—though, unsurprisingly, devoid of any class analysis. But that’s to be expected; if they provided it, there’d be little need for us.

This is how a capitalist company in decline operates—it prioritises the protection of profit above all else. When growth stagnates or revenue dips, the immediate response isn’t to address the root causes but to squeeze more from workers and consumers alike. The product is cheapened, conditions worsen, and wages are cut wherever possible. Manchester United is no exception—it’s a brand, a business. In fact, it was the first and most successful brand of the Premier League era, tailor-made for the Americanisation of English football. The irony, of course, is that it was American owners who oversaw its deterioration.

Capital is dead labour, that, vampire-like, only lives by sucking living labour, and lives the more, the more labour it sucks

We agree, Starmer. We agree.

So much for working-time directives.

With the ubiquitous spread of mobile communications, more and more workers are finding that their employers expect that the fact that they can be reached anytime anywhere means that they should be ready to respond to work calls and emails at any time of the day or night, including on days off and holidays.

Not only individuals but their families are paying the price, all adding to the steep rise in the numbers suffering severe burnout from overwork in Britain.

Dutch side 🇳🇱 PSV have refunded the 3,000 fans who have bought tickets for the Arsenal game tonight!

The club wanted to apologise to fans for their recent poor form and the recent 7-1 home defeat to the Gooners.

This kind gesture is going to cost them €200,000.

Class that.

🤡👀IRELAND'S COMPRADOR POLITICAL CLASS TOKEN GESTURES TO PLACATE THE MASSES👀🤡

Throughout Ireland's history, there have always been those who worked in the interests of their colonizer masters at the expense or against the wishes of the masses, and that today is best seen with Ireland's comprador political class. Continuing to voice "concern" and "disgust" at the situation in Palestine while actively failing to address it. Token gestures are all that have come from these people.

The Dublin government's Simon Harris again voiced "concerns" at new escalations in Gaza as Ireland's main airport is used in the transit of US weapons and military equipment to "Israel" in its campaigns. Which the Irish working class oppose!

This Irish government also failed to enact the Occupied Territories Bill introduced in 2018, now amending the bill to include only banning goods but not "services," a watered-down version.

Thomas Tuchel has announced his first England squad, with one of the biggest surprises being the inclusion of Marcus Rashford. Currently on loan at Aston Villa, Rashford is playing second fiddle to Ollie Watkins.

You’d think Watkins would have been an obvious pick, but a recent injury seems to be the reason for his omission. Based on form, though, the next best option in the league is surely Liam Delap. He’s played 27 games for a struggling Ipswich side, scoring 10 goals—an impressive return considering their situation. In contrast, Rashford has made just five starts and four substitute appearances, failing to find the net.

Tuchel has claimed he’s prioritising experience, yet he’s selected Morgan Rogers over Conor Gallagher and Jarell Quansah over Aaron Wan-Bissaka. It’s hard to ignore the feeling that reputation and top-team bias have played a bigger role in his choices than actual performances.
