🔴 BREAKING: democratically-elected, socialist Labour conference delegate for Hexham CLP Katie Osborne has been blocked from entering Labour conference
Katie was blocked and has been expelled from the party solely for her support for Socialist Appeal, for being an unapologetic Marxist.
This is a blatant act of gerrymandering by Starmer and the Labour right.

They are expelling delegates because the reality is they have little support among the grassroots.
Members must #FightThePurge and resist Starmer’s counterrevolution at conference!
Expelled delegate Katie says fight the Tories not socialists! #StarmerOut
Come to our fringe meeting tonight at 7:00pm at Dorset Gardens Methodist Church to find out what Starmer is so afraid of! fb.me/e/47IkZ6HCB

🔴 BREAKING: Labour conference delegates expelled for being Socialist Appeal supporters 🔴

Scandalously, a number of delegates to Labour Party conference have been expelled from the party just a day ahead of the start of conference.
The reason for their expulsion is their support for Socialist Appeal.

Evidence used to justify these expulsions include: membership of a public Facebook group which has thousands of members; taking photos at public meetings; and even just being interviewed by Socialist Appeal!
The fact this is occurring just before the conference kicks off clearly shows this is a deliberate act of gerrymandering by Starmer and the right wing to get rid of socialist delegates.

The #OprahMeghanHarry interview has exposed the monarchy for the decrepit institution that it is. #AbolishTheMonarchy is currently trending, showing the anger that people feel towards this rotten relic. But why do we still have a monarchy? And how do we get rid of it? [A THREAD]
In this article from last year, we analysed the so-called 'Megxit' crisis, when Meghan and Harry took their first steps on the path to 'financial independence'. We noted that this dispute merely reflects the crisis at the heart of the British monarchy.

As we explained, "The British monarchy has always acted as window dressing for the rule of the bosses. The pomp and ceremony of the institution... are supposed to inspire awe and reverence... the state, as the repressive tool of class rule, [is] given some kind of “dignity”.

#RedArchives - To kick off this week's theme of 'revolutionary women', we re-publish this article from 2018 on the Dagenham machinists' strike of 1968, an event which became a turning point in the fight for equality. #IWD2021 #IWD #Marxism #Socialism

socialist.net/the-dagenham-m…
The Dagenham strike was not the first such strike, and it would certainly not be the last. However, by standing up against bosses, union officials, and even other workers, they would send a message that has stood the test of time and inspires still. #IWD2021 #IWD #Strike Image
Correction: this month's* theme.

Leaked plans revealed that the Labour party leadership are seeking to 'rebrand' the party along 'patriotic' lines. With Starmer's approval ratings falling, the right think that cloaking themselves in Union flag bunting will win back the 'red wall'. [A THREAD]

Image: @guardian Image
As we have explained, this flag-waving rhetoric is doomed to fail: "Rather than lulling ‘Red Wall’ voters back to Labour, it plays straight into the hands of [the Tories], who will have no qualms about pulling politics even further to the right." #Starmer

What's the logical conclusion of this reheated Blairism? "The result will not be to gain the Labour Party votes, but to embolden nationalists and xenophobes, leading to a ramping up of attacks on migrants, of racism, and of imperialist military adventures." Image
