The Liberation of Syria – a Victory against the Empire

17-12-2016 – As we go to press, the Russian and Syrian armed forces are on the verge of the complete liberation of Aleppo from being held hostage by Western backed mercenaries.

Fidel Castro – Red Salute!

Statement of the Workers League 29-11-2016 – Fidel Castro has left this world, but his legacy will live on. Fidel was a colossus of the socialist movement, and a monumental figure of 20th century history. Arguably, the revolution which overthrew the US backed Batista regime in 1959, and the introduction of socialism which has led Cuba since, would not have succeeded without Fidel’s leadership. Possessing … Continue reading Fidel Castro – Red Salute!

18-11-2016 – The shock result of the US Presidential Election is beginning to sink in.

Shut down Nauru! For an Anti-Empire Refugee Rights Movement!

Others believe there are no words to describe the inhumanity dealt out to asylum seekers on the Australian run detention centre on the remote island of Nauru. The latest report from the UN’s Committee on the Rights of the Child highlights the “inhuman and degrading treatment, including … Continue reading Shut down Nauru!

No to Refoulement, No deportations! For the liberation of Tamil Eelam!

12-11-2016 – Refoulement – literally, the return of refugees and asylum seekers to a country where they are likely to be persecuted, or even executed – is illegal under international law. As is well known, however, real violations of international law have rarely in the past prevented the Australian government from carrying them out. The return of Tamil asylum seekers by Australian government authorities, sometimes … Continue reading No to Refoulement, No deportations! For the liberation of Tamil Eelam!

NATO: Troops Out of Eastern Europe! Lift the Sanctions! Hands Off Russia!

03-05-2016 – In a rational world, a fleet of warships belonging to country A patrolling 50 miles from the shore of country B would be seen as a considerable threat to the security of country B. Not so if you happen to be a part of the Western corporate media, and country A is Russia, and country B is the United States of America. In … Continue reading NATO: Troops Out of Eastern Europe!
