The announcement by Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana about a new party was always going to stir up the working class. However, I didn’t anticipate just how much and how fast interest in socialist politics would build. This is meant to be the quiet period of the year!
The Socialist Party has organised 50 public meeting across England and Wales, to discuss and debate how the new party — that Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana have announced their intention to create — can be built into an organisation where workers can fight for our interests.
University staff across the country have suffered years of pay rises which are below inflation — Imperial College London isn’t part of the national offer, but workers are still having to take action for better pay and working conditions.
The Socialist has carried numerous articles about Thames Water’s record of dumping sewage into our waters and hiking bills year on year — all while paying out hefty bonuses to its managers and executives.
The five-day (25-29 July) walkout by 50,000 resident doctors in England has begun. The BMA says that pay is still down by a fifth since 2008, in real terms, despite recent pay rises.
