TUC highlights

  • Trade unions / Communist work in the trade unions

    Our role is not to take over the bureaucracies but to bring a class-conscious understanding and programme to rank-and-file militants.

    30 Apr 2025 ,
  • Trade unions / TUC leader endorsing Ukraine war is a betrayal of British and Ukrainian workers

    Further proof that the gang in charge of the official organisations of working-class resistance have been completely bought off.

    1 Mar 2025 , Lalkar
  • Industry / Starmer government pushing fresh sell-off to hedge fund vultures

    The Labour party grovels to Wall Street and the City of London.

    15 Nov 2024 , Class Consciousness Project
  • Trade unions / TUC launches fake ‘campaign to defend the right to strike’

    A campaign most workers are unaware of, aimed not at overturning anti-worker legislation but at garnering votes for the perfidious Labour party.

    26 Jan 2024 , Proletarian
  • Trade unions / Joti Brar: a personal account of anti-war struggle against the trade union bureaucracy

    Why is it so hard to get anything meaningful done via the existing trade union mechanisms?

    13 Sep 2023 , Proletarian
  • Ukraine / With depleted uranium, nuclear war is underway in Europe

    Nato war crimes in Donbass don’t stop at DU; Donbass civilians are routinely targeted by cluster bombs and petal mines.

    12 Sep 2023 , Proletarian
  • Trade unions / Who is behind the TUC motion asking British workers to support war crimes?

    It’s not too late to reverse the disastrous decision taken by many union delegations and the bureaucratic leadership clique to support this criminal resolution.

    11 Sep 2023 ,
  • Trade unions / Which way forward for the trade unions now?

    It is time to break out of suffocating ‘unity’ with those who serve our class enemies.

    24 Aug 2023 , Proletarian
  • Trade unions / Why do so many trade union struggles in Britain fail?

    Teaching union NEU led its members into months of strike action, only to capitulate and accept a below-inflation pay rise. Why?

    14 Aug 2023 , Class Consciousness Project
  • Ukraine / Stop the War’s capitulation hides truth about Ukraine, stops workers organising

    It is time we in Britain got off our knees and organised a mass movement of real opposition to the imperialist war drive.

    13 Jul 2023 , Proletarian
  • Trade unions / The real trade union barons

    Having been absorbed into the fabric of the state machine, most trade union leaders now work not to aid but to suppress their members’ struggles.

    20 May 2023 , Class Consciousness Project
  • British history / Twenty years later: the predatory imperialist war against Iraq

    While the heroic resistance was defeating US and British imperialist forces, the British working class was effectively demobilised by its corrupted leadership.

    4 May 2023 , Lalkar
  • Trade unions / After the strikes, what then?

    As union leaders look for the exit, their members’ anger is being directed towards yet another diversionary ‘vote Labour’ campaign.

    21 Mar 2023 , Proletarian
  • Trade unions / TUC directs its members’ anger into more meaningless busywork

    An email campaign to reverse anti-union laws? Really?

    30 Jan 2023 , Proletarian
  • Civil liberties / Minimum Service Bill is the latest salvo in the class war against workers

    No cooperation with union-busting anti-strike laws! 

    27 Jan 2023 , Proletarian
  • Trade unions / Are Britain’s union bosses interested in helping their members fight back?

    As the crisis deepens, the ruling class is looking far more determined than the unions, where lions continue to be led by loyal Labour donkeys.

    16 Nov 2022 , Proletarian
  • Trade unions / Shameful capitulation of workers’ leadership in face of ‘mourning’ demands

    With hunger, blackouts and war knocking urgently at workers’ doors, our demand should be: ‘Don’t mourn, organise.’

    12 Sep 2022 , Proletarian
  • Economy / Bosses press on with sackings as crisis deepens

    As the furlough support scheme comes to an end, the true depth of the economic crisis is becoming ever clearer.

    7 Jul 2020 , Proletarian

    1 Nov 2019 , Lalkar
