New Future
A kind of feed reader
Although fascism has traditionally held little sway over the Irish people, it is a century-old movement — and one experiencing a well-funded renaissance.
In Martin Luther King’s era, Tribune provided an important platform to the civil rights movement in both Britain and the US, cementing the publication’s beliefs that racial justice was inseparable from the struggle for socialism.
Last decade, the philosopher G. M. Tamás saw the new European far right as ‘post-fascist’: a movement that fights for no real change, raises national passions, humiliates the vulnerable, and is utterly comfortable with globalisation’s grim realities.
Donald Trump’s victory came from leaning into working-class America’s anxieties over economic decline — and unless the Left’s economic offer becomes as strong, they leave the pitch open to the Right.
Many of Britain’s problems can be explained by the fact that 1% of the population owns more wealth than 70% combined. Despite its break with failed Tory economics, the budget did little to tackle this obscene inequality.
Thatcher's anti-union laws have brought misery to workers by restricting their ability to fight. If Labour's Employment Rights Bill fails to scrap them and empower working people, its efforts to change the workplace will be in vain.
The global movement to defend the Spanish Republic from fascism included scores of Salford people who volunteered in the International Brigades, raised funds and cared for refugees — a legacy that campaigners are hoping will be enshrined in a memorial.
The US and UK government have masked their deep complicity in Israel’s genocidal war behind soft criticism and empty pleas for restraint. And the mainstream media, on the whole, have bought it.

Oscar Wilde is known today for his satirical wit, but he maintained a lifelong interest in political affairs — one which would lead him to Irish nationalism, women's suffrage and the fight against capitalism.
Faced with the threat of mass redundancies, GKN automotive workers in Florence occupied their factory to save jobs and build green technology. Their actions can be an inspiration to British workers fighting similar fights.
Labour's new deal for workers agenda has infuriated a right-wing media who see the proposals as threatening a rebirth in trade union power — we have to seize this moment to make their fears become reality.
Once the natural home of LGBT+ activists, Labour’s latest policy shifts show that instead of challenging the right-wing media’s anti-trans frenzy, the party is joining in.
This summer saw Britain’s worst rioting since the 2011 police killing of Mark Duggan. In the aftermath of the murder of Bebe King, Elsie Dot Stancombe, and Alice da Silva Aguiar in Southport, anti-immigrant protesters were directed to attack Southport Mosque. Copycat protests broke out across the country, fed by rumours spread on WhatsApp and…
