SPYING and state repression continues in Germany some 50 years after a workplace ban which targeted leftists was introduced by the Social Democratic Party, communists warned today.
Resistance to increased militarisation and imperialist aggression against Russia and China has seen a “cold ban” on the German Communist Party (DKP) and restrictions placed on the left-wing daily newspaper Junge Welt, the party said.
The government also plans to further restrict democracy, it added, with a so-called radical restructure of the state under the new Social Democratic Party-Green-FDP coalition.
In an address to the Communist Party’s executive at the weekend international secretary KEVAN NELSON explained why the communists’ watchwords must be Jobs not Bombs and Welfare not Warfare
Communists lit the spark in the fight against Nazi German occupation, triggering organised sabotage and building bridges between political movements. Many paid with their lives, says Anders Hauch Fenger
Decision allows Germany’s spooks to use informants and other tools to spy on the far-right party’s activities nationwide
