Repeal the “Foreign Interference Laws”!

Repeal the “Foreign Interference Laws”! 30-06-2020: In a disturbing precedent, New South Wales (NSW) Labor Party MP Shaoquett Moselmane has had Federal Police and ASIO (Australian Security Intelligence Organisation – the equivalent of the FBI in the US) officers raid his home in Rockdale, Sydney on June 26.[1] It is the first investigation to take place using the “Foreign Interference” laws passed by the Federal … Continue reading Repeal the “Foreign Interference Laws”!

No Fees for Degrees!

No Fees for Degrees! 26-06-2020: Not content with running Universities into the ground through decades of funding cuts, the Federal Government is now blatantly embarking on another multi-pronged attack on the higher education sector.

The Left and the Coronavirus

The Left and the Coronavirus 25-04-2020: The Coronavirus circus will go down as arguably the largest ruse ever perpetrated in history. Is Covid-19 highly infectious? Yes. Is Covid-19 highly dangerous? To a very small minority it might be, depending on a whole heap of variables. Does it justify a controlled implosion of the economy, the sacking of millions of workers, the shredding of constitutions, the … Continue reading The Left and the Coronavirus

Covid-19: Savage Assault Under the Guise of “Health” 18-04-2020: Across Australia, the US and Europe, working people are being subjected to the heaviest assault on their working conditions and their standard of living since the Great Depression of the 1930s. The difference is that this time, the assault is being carried out under the false pretext of “healthcare” and “saving lives”. This would be funny … Continue reading Covid-19: Savage Assault Under the Guise of “Health”

Lift the Lockdowns! No to a Police State!

Lift the Lockdowns! No to a Police State! 04-04-2020 – The rhetoric is health and safety; the reality is potential fascism and war. Under the pretext of “public health”, Australia’s elites are installing measures which – under any other circumstance – would be denounced as those of a totalitarian dictatorship. This is not to say that the Coronavirus (Covid-19) is not, at some level, a … Continue reading Lift the Lockdowns! No to a Police State!

Covid-19: Natural Pathogen, or Biological War?

Covid-19: Natural Pathogen, or Biological War? 22-03-2020 – As the Covid-19 (Corona Virus) crisis spreads further throughout the globe, the spectre of an unprecedented economic depression looms large. As with the Great Depression in the 1930s, the private-profit based economies at that time did not have a hope of a release from its grip. It was “resolved” the only way it could have been – … Continue reading Covid-19: Natural Pathogen, or Biological War?

IWD 2020: For the Real Liberation of Women

IWD 2020: For the Real Liberation of Women 08-03-2020: March 8 marks International Women’s Day (IWD), which began its history as International Working Women’s Day. Originally a movement for the redress of the oppression of women through class-struggle socialism, IWD has unfortunately over time been watered down into something eminently acceptable, and even promoted, by sections of today’s capitalist ruling classes. IWD corporate breakfasts, fun … Continue reading IWD 2020: For the Real Liberation of Women

Demand the Unconditional Release of Julian Assange!

Demand the Unconditional Release of Julian Assange! 24-02-2020 – Julian Assange should be feted as an international hero. The founder of Wikileaks, he put his immense talent not into enriching himself with material goods, but with exposing the manifest crimes of governments worldwide, not least the war crimes of US imperialism. Instead, Julian Assange is facing the barely believable prospect of 175 years in a … Continue reading Demand the Unconditional Release of Julian Assange!
