The chancellor’s proposed income tax shuffle is clever accountancy but toxic politics — a pledge-break disguised as fiscal discipline, and proof that Labour has trapped itself in rules it cannot escape.
More than 200,000 young men aren’t “signed off for life”—they are the reserve army of labour, conscripted into the Telegraph’s morality tale to prepare the ground for austerity.
David Frost calls it a new “Red Terror.” The truth is plainer: it’s the Right’s wars, coups and crackdowns that have spilt the deepest blood in politics.
Trump’s latest “kinetic strike” killed three unknown Venezuelans he labelled “narco-terrorists.” The phrase is not law but incantation, a word that strips away humanity and legitimises killing. From Vietnam body counts to Obama’s “signature strikes,” America has always named its enemies into existence, and into death.
To call Robinson’s rally “populist” or “right-wing” is to miss the point. Fascism doesn’t require every marcher to be a coherent ideologue; it requires a mass, a scapegoat, and leaders prepared to turn grievance into violence. That is what we saw in London.
The events of Saturday (13/09) prove that Britain can go fascist. Musk calls for violence, the Telegraph and Times launder his words, and Starmer clings to the flag. We must name the danger or watch it grow.
Camilla Tominey’s sainthood act for Charlie Kirk trades politics for piety. The Right already owns the machinery (press, finance, courts, police) and Kirk was part of the drive shaft. A death certificate doesn’t wash clean a career built on making violence respectable.
The ONS reports zero growth in July. The papers call it “grim news” for Rachel Reeves. In reality, it is the latest entry in a long obituary for British capitalism — a system now sustained only by euphemism, stagnation, and decline.
As new populism gains traction across Europe, the rise of the right-populist Farmer–Citizen Movement in the Netherlands serves as a cautionary tale, underscoring the urgency for the left to reconnect with rural communities and balance tradition with progress in the fight against climate change.
The national question is a complex and challenging issue that defies any simplistic formula. It is a problem that is entangled within the intricate webs of history, culture, and power.
In this article, I delve into the complex world of influencer marketing, examining its impact on brands and consumers, the ethical implications, and the legal responsibilities that influencers must navigate as they wield their powerful influence for profit.
As allegations of sexual misconduct rock both the business world and workers’ representation, the dark undercurrents of power dynamics, sexism, and misogyny within capitalist and worker organisations are brought to light.
Exploring the interwoven fates of the worker and the capitalist, this piece delves into the consequences of hyper-capitalism, the blurring of work and life, and the potential for liberation through the fracturing of capitalist time.
From the cult-like following of visionaries like Elon Musk to the polarising influence of figures such as Donald Trump, we explore how the digital age’s most prominent personalities contribute to and thrive within the ever-evolving spectacle that captivates and divides our global society.
As the Beautiful Game traverses the decades, its soul teeters between tradition and modernity. This narrative explores the transformation of football and the ongoing battle to preserve its essence.
As we march towards an era of technological innovation, driven by artificial intelligence, it’s easy to be fearful of the machines. But the real threat isn’t the AI itself; it’s the system that created and manipulates it for its own gain. Capitalism, with its insatiable hunger for wealth and power, poses the greatest danger to humanity.
The allure of wealth and power has long been a driving force in the world of American capitalism. This insatiable pursuit has given rise to both real and imagined corporate behemoths, casting their shadows over the futures of countless communities and individuals.
In the void, the darkness, the depths of space, and the heart of America, shadows dance. The Alien saga, the nation’s journey, intertwined, parallel, mirroring, reflecting. The struggle, the fight, the survival, the change. The whispers, the warnings, the messages, the screams, the horrors, the nightmares, the dreams. Alien and America, the descent, the rebirth, the redemption, the fire. Ridley Scott, James Cameron, David Fincher, Jean-Pierre Jeunet, Carter, Reagan, Clinton, the visionaries, the leaders, the architects. In the abyss, the chasm, the truth, the lies, the chronicles unfold.
