Mythical Monetary Theory
By Mike Stanton & Dave Middleton
Modern Monetary Theory makes revolutionary economic claims but is in fact just a flawed defence of reformism. […]
Liberty – working class history
By Ray Barron-Woolford
As a gay man it pains me that we are all aware of the civil rights movements in the USA, India, and South Africa, but how the UK civil rights movement was fought and won is still never taught, not even the first civil rights case in law; Duncan vs Jones KB is not even used as a case study by the legal system, by lawyers seeking a job in civil rights law - how is that possible? […]
Jamaica – a country in crisis Part 2
By Susie Granic
The criminal justice system in any country is supposed to be the cornerstone on which a good society is built, so, if that system itself is largely corrupt where does it leave the citizens? […]
Bloody Valentine – The True Account of Cardiff’s Dark and Recent History
By Harvey John
Stories like this do matter. Whether it's four decades or four minutes, justice should not be based on the colour of your skin or how much money your mummy and daddy have stashed in the Caymans. And more than that, it’s a reminder of how easy it is for a miscarriage of justice to happen. I’m happy to be a Cardiff boy, proud of it too, but I’ll be happier still if, in my lifetime, another miscarriage of justice such as this never occurs again. […]
Madness Without Method
By Fiat Knox
This play began when an odious man who would be King fell on his own sword. Johnson, whose cultists in the media worshipped as a god, got caught in one lie too many, and not even the most sycophantic, grovelling, servile reporter could spin lies enough to save him or his hideous choice of wallpaper. […]
Utopian socialism: then and now
By Dave Middleton
This should not be meant to say that utopian socialists do nothing but dream. As is clear from the case of Robert Owen and his followers, they put plenty of effort into making their dreams a reality. But ultimately they lack a coherent strategy to transcend capitalism, so all their activity amounts to little more than philosophy. And, as Marx famously noted, “The philosophers only interpret the world, the point however is to change it.” […]
What makes you a socialist?
By Lynne Edwards
Brave, tenacious, intelligent, strong, funny and at times angry, Jackie retains an indestructible sense of right and wrong informed by the Marxist principles that underpin her beliefs.  […]
Climate change: The view from a flood victim and views on COP27
By David Stirrup
So here we are. A year after our experience of climate change did COP 26 change anything? This year we have seen severe flooding, droughts, multiple wildfires, damaging storms and record high temperatures in many countries including the UK, which are almost becoming the new normal. […]

The racism shown to Ngozi Fulani at a Palace reception is the tip of an iceberg that extends deep into the British state and society at large.

Ambulance staff are the latest group of workers to vote for strike action. It's time for unions to work together and defy anti-union laws.

Western Hypocrisy Over China
by Critical Mass News Team
November 30, 2022
CHINA has been ‘bought out’ by the government and is ‘no longer involved’ in plans for Sizewell C nuclear power station, according to government energy minister, Grant Schapps. This comes after Sunak said that China presented a systemic threat to the UK and takes place against the backdrop of continuing protests in China over the impact of Beijing’s zero-Covid policy. Yesterday, and by a startling coincidence, a Just Oil protester in the UK, 57 year […]
