Where next for the Covid crisis?
On line meeting
6.30pm Monday 10 January
Organised by the Zero Covid Coalition
Britain
Pandemic leading to political crisis
The latest wave of the pandemic threatens to turn into an outright crisis for the Tory government. The new measures forced on it very significantly damage its credibility on an issue which affects the entire population very directly.
A Zero Covid strategy remains the only viable alternative to the current policy of ‘learning to live (die) with the virus’.
Austerity isn’t back. It never went away
NEF analysis shows a fall in living standards for the lowest paid half of the population, and a big increase in incomes for the top 5% of earners. On this evidence, the point that austerity has never gone away is irrefutable. The government clearly has an interest in misleading the population on this point.
Tory party at risk, Johnson in crisis
Socialists should do everything they can to ensure the entire Tory party is held collectively responsible for their outrageous attacks on the population, to kick them all out.
Hypocritical for Britain to join Biden’s so-called Democracy Summit
Statement from No Cold War Britain
Britain is in no position to lecture China about “human rights” or “democracy.” The truth is that, in joining in with the US’s cold war attacks on China, Britain is pursuing a dangerous course that threatens world peace, stability and prosperity.
The assault on living standards
The government and its allies have launched a huge attack on living standards, accompanied by a major propaganda offensive that wages are rising sharply.
