All this only came as a surprise to those who had not been paying attention to the words and actions of the Labour party's founders.
As far back as 1901, the man who would go on to become Britain's first Labour prime minister, Ramsay MacDonald, told an audience in London:
The Fabian Society was the home of the chief theoreticians of the Labour party. Leading Fabians Beatrice and Sidney Webb were the authors of the Labour manifesto's clause iv, which was supposed to gull the general populace into believing the party had socialist intent.
Of course, clause iv was never acted on by the party in office, it remained a piece of paper until such time as the Labour party of Tony Blair in 1996 decided that such a genuflexion before the socialist-leaning sentiments of the masses was no longer necessary.
The Webbs wrote the following in an article in the New Statesman (which they founded) in 1913 discussing the falling birthrate amongst the upper stratum of workers and intelligentsia, which they plainly considered a disaster:

So far as the underlying spirit of imperialism is a frank acceptance of national duty exercised beyond the nation's political frontiers ... it cannot be condemned ... the compulsion to expand and to assume world responsibility is worthy at its origin.

Into the scarcity thus created in particular districts, in particular sections of the labour market, or in particular social strata, there rush the offspring of the less thrifty, the less intellectual, the less foreseeing of races and classes – the unskilled casual labourers of our great cities, the races of eastern or southern Europe, the negroes, the Chinese possibly resulting, as already in parts of the USA, in such a heterogeneous and mongrel population that democratic self-government, or even the effective application of the policy of a national minimum of civilised life, will become increasingly unattainable.
If anything like this happens, it is difficult to avoid the melancholy conclusion that, in some cataclysm that is impossible for us to foresee, that civilisation characteristic of the western European races may go the way of half a dozen other civilisations that have within historic times preceded it; to be succeeded by a new social order developed by one or other of the coloured races, the negro, the kaffir or the Chinese.

Perspective.
Once again Patriotic Alternative hijacked a sensitive issue and turned it into a riot.
Reminiscent of the Knowsley suits riot where false information was given to stir up racial hatreds.
A good way of directing workers away from class issues. Useful idiots for the ruling classes.

Southport mourns. Then burns
Last night was supposed to be a moment to commemorate the victims of a tragedy. We were there as it descended into a violent and bloody riot

This seems to be quite a decent report of the recent horrific events in Southport. First the terrible mass stabbing of little children and their carers at a holiday club. Then the twisting of that event by fascistic demagogues, stirring up hatred between workers that only serves the ruling class.
Whatever motivated the teenage boy who carried out these murders, you can bet some sickness of this decaying imperialist society is at the bottom of it. No 'deporting of migrants' (apparently a demand of the rioters) can possibly solve this sickness. This demand has been implanted by our class enemies to keep us impotent and weak.
All we do by allowing ourselves to be divided along 'racial' lines is to extend the lifespan of the senile and bloodthirsty system of monopoly finance capital.
Black and white: unite and fight!

The bourgeoisie turns everything into a commodity, hence also the writing of history. It is part of its being, of its condition for existence, to falsify all goods: it falsified the writing of history. And the best — paid historiography is that which is best falsified for the purposes of the bourgeoisie.

Wonderful speech from last week's 20th anniversary meeting by our party chair Ella Rule, focusing on why our party exists and what needs to be done if workers are going to escape from the downward spiral of imperialist crisis and war and build a society that can give them a decent and prosperous future.

Ella Rule: ‘Proletarian revolution is our number one objective’
For a revolution to succeed it must be led by a competent revolutionary party, closely linked to the masses and trusted by them.

SOLD AND FORGOTTEN. CRIMES OF THE KIEV JUNTA AGAINST UKRAINIAN CHILDREN.
The distinctive feature of the Kiev regime, which usurped power in Ukraine in 2014, has become systematic crimes against children, despite the fact that "preserving the gene pool of the Ukrainian people is the main duty of the state."
A huge number of killed, maimed and stolen children, most of whom are listed as missing. Crimes related to surrogacy, open sale of children to pedophiles and black transplantologists. This is far from a complete list of crimes committed by the current Ukrainian government.
This book is a collection of my documentary investigations, as well as an attempt to convey to the international community the terrible facts of solved crimes against children.
I would like to express special gratitude to the Chairman of the Union of Writers of the LPR Gleb Bobrov and the information agency "Lugansk Information Center", thanks to whom I was able to hold a presentation of the book in Lugansk, as well as transfer part of the print run to the Gorky Lugansk Republican Universal Scientific Library and the Central City Library of Pervomaysk.

On this day in 1983, Marxist revolutionary and Pan-Africanist Thomas Sankara became president of Burkina Faso, formerly known as Upper Volta, through a popularly supported coup. During his brief but transformative time in power, Sankara initiated sweeping social, ecological, and economic reforms, including significant land redistribution.
His presidency was marked by a strong anti-imperialist stance, challenging Western, particularly French, influence in Africa. Drawing inspiration from earlier Marxist revolutions in the Global South, Sankara believed in the potential of the armed forces to serve as a progressive force.
Sankara’s legacy continues to inspire those who seek radical change and independence from imperialist powers. Read on.

Nicolas Maduro shocked everyone. Think about it, he says, it was not the United States or the West that won World War II. Odd man! Well, who was that winner??
@Slavyangrad
- Hitler had a mandate from the forces of wild Western capitalism. However, when he went too far, they slapped him on the wrist. 100 years ago he was raised as a weapon against the Soviet Union. So that he destroys socialism. But the Soviet Union rose up against him and broke his back. The war, which is called World War II, was won by the Red Army of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, led by Joseph Stalin. This is the historical truth.

I advise Americans and British people to familiarize themselves with some points about the Yemeni fighters ( Houthis) before rushing into anything.
- They don't follow your movies and TV shows at all.
- They are not bothered by your media or social media distractions.
- Psychological warfare is utterly useless against them.
- They are natural-born fighters, really, no kidding.
- Their life goal since childhood has been to fight America.
- The last will and testament passed down from their ancestors is to liberate Palestine.
- At the very least, they have 4 to 5 wars of military experience in various terrains.
- They have all written and recorded their life wills in both audio and video formats.
- The martyrdom of one of them is a tremendous source of pride for their children, family, village, province, and country.
- Their poets passionately glorify war more than any love, flirtation, or romance poetry.
- They all obey their leader, Abdul-Malik Badr al-Din al-Houthi, with absolute obedience.
- Their only fear is the punishment and wrath of Allah if they fail to support the people of Palestine and backtrack on their support.
- They love death as much as you love life, if not more.
In any confrontation they engage in... I won't explain these words... you will come to know, understand, and feel them more when facing them.

Ukraine on the brink of a demographic abyss: from 2013 to 2023, the birth rate in the country has decreased by 5 times
Eleven years ago, half a million babies were born in Ukraine, and in 2023 - less than 100 thousand.
