  • For a People's Budget - there is an alternative to never-ending cuts
    Nov 24 2025

    WITH:


    John McDonnell MP // Ian Byrne MP // Steve Wright (FBU General Secretary) // Cat Hobbs (We Own It) // Ramona McCartney (People's Assembly) // Sarah Kilpatrick (NEU Deputy GS Designate) // PLUS MORE


    With the budget approaching, and over 1 year into a Labour Government, austerity policies have continued, including disability benefit cuts and the failure to scrap the cruel two-child benefit cap.


    This event will look at the Left's alternative economic policies which are an alternative to forever cuts - including extending public ownership and ending the privatisation rip-off; a further expansion of workers’ rights to shift power in the economy; a green revolution; and taxing wealth to pay for high-quality, public services for all.



    Hosted by the TUCG (Trade Union Co-ordinating Group) in association with Arise - a Festival of Left Ideas. Free event but solidarity donations here essential to hosting & streaming costs.

  • Capitalism Can’t Save Us: how Marx’s economics explain today's crisis
    Sep 11 2025


    Michael Roberts kicks off the monthly 'Marx Matters' event series - was Nye Bevan right, wrong, or both when he said “Marxism put into the hands of the working class movement... the most complete blueprints for political action the world has ever seen?”


    Michael worked in the City of London as an economist for over 40 years. He has closely observed the machinations of global capitalism from within the dragon’s den. At the same time, he was a political activist in the labour movement for decades. Since retiring, he has written several books including The Great Recession – a Marxist view (2009); The Long Depression (2016); Marx 200: a review of Marx’s economics (2018).


    Marx Matters is a series of in-person and online talks from prominent writers on Marxism exploring the relevance of Marx's work today. You can buy a ticket to help fund the whole series here: https://bit.ly/MarxMattersTickets


    Organised by volunteers from Arise, a festival of left ideas', it is designed to give socialists taking up struggle today a deeper understanding of the tools Marx and Engels gave activists to understand the political, economic and social world around them, and how to advance the cause of humanity.
