In a statement concerning Prime Minister Keir Starmer's resignation, the Communist Party of Britain (CPB) points out the following: 

"Keir Starmer is a symptom of Britain’s political crisis, not its cause.

Starmer’s resignation less than two years after a general election in which Labour won a parliamentary majority of 174 seats, confirms the failure of his authoritarian New Labour tribute act, and the increasing instability of Britain’s ruling class.

Statement by the Press Office of the CC of the Communist Party of Greece (KKE)

No Greek armed forces mission to the Strait of Hormuz

Before the fragile agreement between the US and Iran has even been signed, the government is already rushing to assert its presence by deploying naval vessels to the Strait of Hormuz. Whatever pretext may be used to justify this new overseas mission, and regardless of the timeframe envisaged, one fact cannot be denied: this is a mission into the lion’s den, serving interests that are alien to those of the Greek people.

Germany: Is Die Linke joining the anti-communist campaign against Soviet memorials?

A new controversy in Germany has once again exposed the increasingly problematic stance adopted by the so-called "Left" (Die Linke) on questions of historical memory and the legacy of the Soviet Union.

Elon Musk: What kind of system produces a trillionaire?

By Nikos Mottas 

"If a man tells you he got rich through hard work, ask him: 'Whose?'"

The old remark by Don Marquis has never been more relevant.

Elon Musk has officially become the world's first trillionaire. Predictably, the newspapers, television networks and business magazines are treating it as a historic achievement. A monument to innovation. A triumph of genius. Proof that capitalism rewards talent.

But a trillion dollars is not a measure of talent. It is rather a measure of power.

Analysis of the insurrectionary process in Bolivia: Seigniorial paradox, power bloc, and the potency of the masses

By Camila Azeñas Uzquiano*

In April of 2026, the government of Rodrigo Paz Pereira —inaugurated on November 8, 2025— promulgated Law 1720, which sought to dismantle the constitutional protection of small peasant property in order to favor extractivist large landholdings (latifundio). That law was the spark of an insurrectionary process that, since then, has triggered the deployment of road blockades, an indigenous march from Pando to La Paz, a massive cabildo (popular assembly) in El Alto that shattered any pretense of dialogue with the Executive, and a women's hunger strike picket.

By Josef Brant

The initiative is presented with grand rhetoric about socialism, anti-imperialism, anti-colonial struggle, and international solidarity. Yet behind the red symbols, a different reality emerges: not proletarian internationalism, but bourgeois campism.
