JOHN McINALLY argues trade unions and socialists must demand properly funded healthcare instead of a change that, combined with neoliberal capitalism, will see working-class people pushed towards suicide

JOHN McINALLY warns that Labour’s hasty push for legislation ignores the international evidence of expanding eligibility criteria, potentially normalising the ‘social murder’ of working-class people under the guise of compassion

Labour must fight to ensure any new laws do not become tools for social cleansing of the poor and disabled, argues JOHN McINALLY, as some begin considering NHS savings that could come at the cost of working-class lives

JOHN McINALLY calls for militant trade unionism and overt socialist politics to counter the new government’s pro-capitalist agenda and a looming authoritarian turn that threatens to muzzle working-class resistance

At the helm of Britain’s eighth-largest union for a quarter of a century, he is rightly seen as one of the most principled and effective class fighters of our times, writes JOHN McINALLY

After fuelling the fire of the conflict and then promising Kiev support until victory, the West is pressing Zelensky to cut a deal — one that will now favour Russia. What a disgraceful waste of human life this has been, writes JOHN McINALLY

JOHN McINALLY points to parallels between the inter-imperialist conflict that erupted 109 years ago today and the current war in Ukraine

JOHN McINALLY argues that last weekend’s Stand With Ukraine demonstration attracted wide trade union support, but promoted a reactionary agenda that will not help end the war

The ultimate test in such circumstances is what position do socialists adopt — do they echo the condemnations of the “enemy,” do they “take sides” with this or that imperialist bloc or power or,do they stand firmly against imperialism, asks JOHN McINALLY

JOHN McINALLY argues the British trade union movement can maintain unity by adopting an independent class position and fully supporting the democratic right of Scottish workers to pursue national self-determination
