NWBCW Liverpool held its fourth public meeting, this time on the topic of imperialist tensions and perspectives for the working class. The presentation was a slightly updated document drafted by one of our members and previously presented and discussed at one of our internal meetings. It sparked a productive discussion amongst ourselves then, and it…

… with Class Struggle! As the war in Ukraine grinds on, as masses flee Nagorno-Karabakh, as the Sahel is torn apart by warring factions, now Gaza is being razed to the ground. Thousands are already dead, and many more have been displaced as even schools and hospitals become military targets. These are not isolated events nor…

NWBCW Liverpool held another meeting recently, this time on the topic of capitalism, the ecological crisis and the drive to war. We reproduce the presentation we delivered below, and we can only summarise here what was once again a lively discussion, with everyone in the room making contributions. First part of the discussion raised the…

The following text is the introduction to a workshop organised by NWBCW Liverpool during the Liverpool Anarchist Bookfair. The workshop was well attended (unfortunately unlike the bookfair itself, which saw smaller numbers than in previous years – a rail strike happening on the day and internal conflicts among the bookfair organisers both being contributing factors).…

… in Liverpool and Beyond! The current wave of strike action, both official and unofficial, signals the arrival of a working class resistance. At the pickets and rallies across the country workers are making it clear that they will not pay for the capitalist crisis. An already failing economy, hit by the triple whammy of…

When we formed NWBCW Liverpool back in March 2022, we encouraged other internationalists around the world to follow suit. It has been six months and we are pleased to see that various NWBCW committees have since been founded in Turkey, South Korea, USA, Canada and Italy. Additionally, a few communist and anarchist groups have responded positively…

As the class struggle of 2022 continues, a campaign has emerged from the trade unions (Enough is Enough) which calls for pay-rises, taxation and price caps. The real goal of this campaign is not so much the reforms but rather to capture the momentum of class struggle which is cresting over our economy. At many…

We the workers are once again being asked to pay for a crisis not of our making. Having hardly emerged from two years of the pandemic, we are now greeted by rising costs of living. Boris Johnson is threatening us with out of control inflation if we dare to demand higher pay, while the capitalist…

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has spread confusion within the ranks of the capitalist left. Some have sided with the Ukrainian resistance, others have blamed it all on NATO, and many have simply remained silent.
