Our live broadcast led on from talking about Jason's article on Pensions and Ben Shapiro's views on retirement, to talking about communities and supermarket club cards. Here's a small article shared with us on the insidious nature in which club cards are essentially used as a way of collecting information on how we shop. Rewarding us with tiny savings for this information.

A fearless opponent of imperialist war and bringer of truth, Pilger was one of the first major western voices to point to the drive towards all-out war against Russia and China by the Nato imperialists.

The most courageous, fearless and decent of journalists, who devoted his life to speaking the truth and uncovering imperialist lies.

A man that doesn't believe in retirement definitely hasn't lumped bricks up and down scaffolding for years.
Although he's right to say that if you've put into the country for your entire working life you should be rewarded with an adequate state pension. Not the poverty payments we receive in Britain.

The writer here still doesn't come to the full conclusions of what is happening/happened to British football.
The advent of the premier league, every single club 1st division club resigning from the national league to start the new shiny league, has been a succession of decisions that have been designed to consolidate the cash flow. Creating this immobile group of teams in British football to rule over all.
This is essentially just monopoly capitalism at a football level. These clubs are nothing but corporations acting as capitalists do in an attempt to corner the market in which they profit from.

The Class Consciousness Project commits to set out a blueprint for change in trade unions.
But to understand the problems, we first need to understand how we got here. In the first part of this new series, we look at the period from 1964 to 1970.

Here's the audio version of our livestream from yesterday. We started with a discussion on our comrade Jason's recent article on Ben Shapiro's 'thoughts' on pensions. The discussion then broadened to addressing issues of community planning, supermarket monopolies and why the tesco clubcard points us towards the possibility of a planned economy.

🇬🇧🚨JULIAN ASSANGE SEEKING POTENTIAL PLEA DEAL TO AVOID EXTRADITION🇺🇸⚖️
Via the Wall Street Journal, the US Justice Department is contemplating permitting WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange to plead guilty to a misdemeanor offense and avoid extradition to the US on espionage charges.
In recent months, Assange's legal team and US officials have engaged in initial discussions to outline a potential agreement, according to sources.
Nevertheless, Barry Pollack, a lawyer representing the imprisoned journalist, informed the newspaper that “there are no signs” that the department is prepared to endorse the proposed deal.
