Today due to: complete lack of confidence expressed by public to governors of Westminster; Britain’s economic fall; corruption of parliamentarians and trade union leaders; inability to continue daily survival in the total crisis; insane armament of Nazis and cannibals such as Zelensky and Netanyahu; huge number of civilians and children dying in the Donbass* and the Gaza; the conscious class of proletariat** unites for better living conditions and immediately stop killings in Gaza and Donbass.
Since early mid-January 2024, workers and servants supported by some active Political Parties, Trade Unions, Organizations and groups, have called for unity, for National Protest and Solidarity Strike, scheduled for Wednesday 7 of February 2024.
According to the joint plan, the strike was aimed to cover more than 50+ operating enterprises and educational institutions. With a large number of all those agreeing to join the National Strike on 15+ cities in Britain, including: Brighton, Bristol, Bari, Cambridge, Durham, Exeter, Glasgow, London, Norwich, Oxford, Cardiff, Lincoln, Birmingham, Hull, Manchester, etc.
I – Westminster Tories and their puppets.
The British government continues to go against domestic wishes of the people. Ignoring all good demands of ordinary people, governors ban the flags of Palestine and Donbass, but flags of Ukraine and Israel continue to fly over Westminster.
The top of Conservatives and Laborites now act as reactionary bosses, corrupted by American Imperialism, this very tiny group of ruling super-rich is taking part in the war machine called NATO. This led to talks about major split in the Labour Party. The small ruling minority does not hear the voices of the largest class of regular workers, farmers, policemen, doctors and soldiers.
It is no longer a secret that Rishi Sunak (elected in constitutions of Richmond and York), who is the leader of the Conservatives, has teamed up with Keir Starmer, the leader of the Laborites (elected in constitutions of Holborn and St. Pancras). These two sour Tory leaders act, call, issue and sign documents, are dragging Britain into the abyss of ongoing multicontinental war and exacerbate economic crisis.
Notable occupiers of the House of Commons include John McDonell (elected 7 times in a row for the constituency of Hayes and Harlington). He is the powerful “storm shadow ruler” of Britain’s major unions such as the PCS, NUM, and GMB. It springs out that John McDonell, in effort to realize his personal ambitions as a most powerful shadow representative of Parliamentary Trade Unions Laborite Tories maintains some ties and agreements with Jeremy Corbyn (creator of Stop The War Coalition and Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament). John McDonell attempts to save his back and showed himself in the national strike on 7 February 2024, organizing rally in comfortable for him Westminster.
II – Struggle getting further
Despite the official policy of Westminster and its open support of Ukraine and Israel, many people working at factories, military bases, police stations, hospitals and universities, conscientious students and so on, went on strike to express solidarity with people of Gaza and Donbass, to condemn Israeli and Ukrainian butchers, and to stop bloody distant wars and killing of civilians, women and children.
More people are being taught that their personal lives and hardness of living in crisis are directly related to warmongering and wrongdoing of the ruling class.
All these events characterize the kind of struggle as class struggle, when a small group of minorities oppressing and mocking the large masses of people. And here are some, from many but bold examples of protests developing within society.
The march at the University of Brighton scheduled for 7 February 2024, was effectively disrupted by the university administration. Leaders of Students’ Trade Union of University of Brighton yet have openly taken pro-administrative and reactionary position in support of Tories. The situation continues to heat up and eventually in such cases, things can have bad quit.
A march at the University of Sussex scheduled for 7 February 2024, ended in a scuffle with involvement of police. The administration of the University of Sussex, is supporting Ukraine and Israel, during the planned march of solidarity and protest against the murder of women and children in Donbass and Gaza, scheduled a Jewish Holocaust march at the same time. The student masses and progressive teachers of the University of Sussex continue their event, but in the end it all ended in brawl.
The Administration of the University of Cambridge also supports the Westminster. Due to blackmail and intimidation of progressive teachers and students actively calling for protest planned for the middle of the day of 7 February 2024, the event not ended in nothing. Some groups of students were walking around the university and actively demonstrated banned Palestinian flags.
Members of the UCU trade union and students of the University of Exeter managed to go better in organization. Despite the wrong will of university administration, which actually banned the march, the march took place after 6pm on 7 February 2024.
Very notable events occurred in Glasgow on 7 February 2024. The Scottish Stop the War Coalition is always trying to stay somewhat separate from head office and Jeremy Corbyn, as does the Scottish GMB union, which stands apart from corrupt head office. After a successful day of widespread strikes, solidarity marches and protests, Scottish activists managed to stop Keir Starmer’s car on a street of Glasgow, and during an evening protest demanded from Keir Starmer to leave the Scotland. This is a very important and significant event. Scotland’s practice requires broader support to ensure that all villages, towns and doors are closed to Keir Starmer, Rishi Sunak and John McDonell.
Also, very significant event took place in Bristol. A brave group of anti-war activists marched directly in front of Elbit Systems UK, which is a local military drone manufacture, and protested with demand to Stop Arming Genocide and stop production of deadly weapons aimed at civilians.

These are just a few strikes out from many. They show how class-conscious masses of workers are conducting a progressive movement, reflect the aspirations of British workers and the real state of affairs.
III – The rise
The politicians are also increasingly taking part in the movement. Other leaders and organizations do nothing for the movement but try to demonstrate their participation in it. This is a regular process, what is really goes together with it? As the proletarization of masses continues, more old and new leaders and organizations come out on the stage.
It is the reason to select and identify some organizations representers of superrich who are join the movement with weak attempts to culming it down. At the same time, some organizations are primarily serve as a political vehicle of saving old and dying interparliamentary arrangements.
The total contempt of oppressive capital, and contempt of discredited power, raise red flags to wrong organizations that practice: i) Collecting donations without explaining where the fonds are spent; ii) Expelling and refusing of recognition of regular workers and activists who actively participating and organizing protests; iii) Hide the leadership of the organization and direct contacts of leaders from the public; iv) Ignore all public inquiries by refusing to respond to phone calls, emails and messages; v) Act solely at leader personal discretion, without respecting the opinion and without obtaining the approval of people within the organization; vi) Ban people from participation in discussions during public meetings and events; vii) Making many bold and great statements, but in practice they lead to actions in favor of our worst enemies.
All these is visible to people who want to live, cannot stop or retreat, they must change the organization to a better one.
IV – Nearest expectations
The Ukrainian war in Donbass and Israeli war in Gaza continues rapidly increase their destructive power and enlarging the crisis in the UK. Prices will continue to rise, taxes will increase, health care will become more limited, education cost will rise, unemployment rate will rise, and crime rates will rise in expanded unhappy neighborhoods, e.g., leaving conditions continue to deteriorate significantly.
All people, including the military, do not want war. The inner corruption of discredited government and eager for military budget is now siphoning money to wallets of Tories for crime of doing the war.
For workers’ money, British officers were sent to serve Ukraine against Donbass. Next, faced with a hard crisis, regular foreign British troops will be sent to Ukraine and Yemen. And later, when Great Britain begins to fall apart, and wars are about to be lost, the British government in an attempt to save its ruling sit, will be forced to begin recruiting volunteers and then call for compulsory wartime mobilization of workers. It could lead to the Third World War with high chances of use nuclear weapons by the West.
The crisis will continue to escalate until large proletarianized masses completely destroy this outdated state government machine.
The UK’s high scale lethal military expansion described above is accelerating the crisis, indicating: a) Unfavored military situation in Ukraine; b) Global condemnation of the genocide in Gaza, accompanied by war with Yemen; c) Large mass protests carried out by a huge number of people who do not want to participate in the merciless killings of women, children and elderly in Donbass and Gaza.
Since the beginning of 2024, UK government has begone to lose its power and has taken the wrong path by unleashing civil terror, trying to stop protests and marches, detaining active participants and journalists, and accusing many of supporting terrorism. The masses continuing to get experience of speaking for a good cause. Faced with early fall (publica ruina), the masses quickly unite and put more pressure on the government to slow the crisis and save Britain.
IV – Conclusion and outlook.
The top of the Conservatives and the Laborers, the very few of reactionary Tories, stand up against all workers and servants, farmers, policemen, doctors and soldiers. The undisputed majority of British people can no longer remain oppressed.
Look around you: what is happening to farmers, what is happening to manufacturing, what is actually happening to social services such as medical, education and police, what is happening to business, millions of people cannot live in the deceptive Westminster’s swamp.
History continues to straighten workers and servants union in move for a better future. The today’s crisis demonstrated that English bourgeoisie also suffers heavy losses and has no prospective opportunities.
We will continue strive for truthful solidarity with all strikes and marches organization committees. Go forward with local workers’ and servants’ councils, with a majority of working-class people. All old warmongers with wrong Westminster’s polices must go out.
We also say the words “get out” spoken by Scottish protesters to Starmer.
Three ruling Tories, Rishi Sunak, Keir Starmer and John McDonell must leave the UK for a better place of living such as Ukraine or Israel.
Comrades! Remember, this situation has arisen because we have been fooled by the warmongering and the wrongdoing government for the past several years!
All power to the Workers and Servants!
