In this week's episode of Communist Radio, Ben Gliniecki and Khaled Malachi sit down to discuss Israel's deadly attacks on Lebanon, Iran's retaliation, and the rank hypocrisy of western leaders like Keir Starmer.
As Ben and Khaled explain, revolutionary communists side fully with the oppressed against the oppressor.
In order to put an end to Israel's slaughter, workers and youth must fight the enemy at home – British imperialism and its lackeys in Westminster – with mass, revolutionary action.

The national question is one of the most complex questions that Marxists must be able to answer, and has a renewed importance today, as the crisis of capitalism inflames national questions that were once considered fully resolved.
In this talk, Jack Tye Wilson outlines Lenin and the Bolsheviks' approach and how it developed, the colonial revolutions, and the national question today.

Little over a month after Starmer's landslide election victory, Britain has been thrown into turmoil, with far-right riots and attacks, as well as impressive counter mobilisations.
These events are a foretaste of the instability in store, as British capitalism sinks deeper into crisis.
In this episode, taken from the opening talk of the recent RCP summer camp, Adam Booth explains these events within the context of the global crisis of capitalism, and outlines the tasks of revolutionary communists in the class struggle today.

In the past week, Britain has been shaken by a wave of far-right violence, with migrants, asylum-seekers and Muslim communities facing intimidation and violent attacks. These shocking events should be a wake-up call for the labour movement.
In this episode of Marxist Voice, we sit down with Fiona Lali to discuss why this unrest is taking place, the responses from the left and the labour movement, and the communist perspective on how we can smash the far-right using class struggle methods,

We’re told we live in a democracy, but whether we vote for Starmer or Sunak, we’re going to get pretty much the same thing. What’s democratic about that?
We’re told we have rights like freedom of speech and a free press, but the government is banning protests and the newspapers are all owned by billionaires. What’s the point of these “rights” if they don’t actually mean anything?
The fact is that the world is run by and for the rich. They decide everything and the rest of us don’t get a say. That isn’t democracy, that’s a dictatorship.
In this episode of Marxist Voice, Ben Gliniecki proves that what we live in today isn’t a real democracy. Instead, he will give a vision of what a real, socialist, democracy would look like, along with how communists can best fight for it.

15 years after the collapse of Lehman Brothers, the economy is once again taking a turn for the worse. The past decade and a half has seen capitalism go from disaster to disaster. Instability and chaos are the new normal.
Whether it’s environmental crises, economic crises or political crisis, the world has lurched from one extraordinary event to another. But every measure the bourgeois take to solve one crisis only creates another.
The bourgeois economists have started calling this a “permacrisis” or “polycrisis”. But this is nothing more than a description of the symptoms. It tells us nothing about the cause.
In this episode of Marxist Voice, Niklas Albin Svensson will explain why the capitalist system has found itself in a dead end and why there is no way out without a communist revolution.

The events of the German revolution are some of the most tragic in the history of the world workers movement. One year after the Russian revolution, the German workers rose up, overthrew the Kaiser, and set up Soviets all over the country.
But unlike the Russian revolution, where the Bolshevik party had been founded 14 years in advance, the revolutionary party in Germany, the Spartacus league, was founded one month after the revolution began. As a result, they were caught unprepared, and the revolution was beheaded.
In this episode of Marxist Voice, Andy Southwark will explain the events of the German revolution to draw out the need for us to build a tempered revolutionary leadership, ready for the class struggles ahead.

The events of the Russian revolution were the greatest in all human history. For the first time, the exploited masses fought back and won. The revolution birthed the most progressive state the world had ever seen, with the Communist International — led by Lenin and Trotsky — becoming a beacon of internationalism, inspiring workers and poor everywhere.
And yet, within 10 years, the Soviet Union had degenerated into a bureaucratic and totalitarian regime. The Communist International went from a harbinger of world revolution to a tool for the narrow, national interests of the Soviet bureaucracy, with Stalin at its head.
In this session, Rob Sewell will discuss the main processes that led to the degeneration of the Russian revolution, answering the question: What is Stalinism?
