Northern Ireland’s dissident republicans
Violence has remained at a
relatively low level in Northern Ireland. However, fears of a possible
Brexit-imposed hard border and ongoing austerity are stoking tension,
issues played on by sectarian politicians on all sides. NIALL MULHOLLAND
reviews a book looking at dissident republican groups.
Editorial: socialist red lines needed for
Brexit talks
With all the heads of state
at the special European Council in Brussels on 10 April seeking to pass
on responsibility to someone else for triggering a chaotic breakdown of
the renegotiation of British capitalism’s relations with the other EU
members, the only thing they could agree on was that they couldn’t agree
anything then. Absolutely nothing has been resolved. Nothing has changed
fundamentally for Theresa May’s precarious position either. As long as
Jeremy Corbyn stands firm against the pressure to accept the neoliberal
policies of the EU bosses’ club, May does not have the votes for her
withdrawal agreement treaty.
A manifesto to change the world?
What force is needed to end
the discrimination and division rooted in the capitalist system? Can the
global women’s movements become the main agency for change? Is the
organised working class now redundant? CHRISTINE THOMAS reviews a new
publication claiming to have the answers.
