Over 60 people arrested by the police on the Palestine demonstrations on Saturday - including the chief steward. MPs who were on the protest have been summoned to speak to police. This is a concerted and coordinated attack on the movement by the state. We need mass resistance and a fight for our political and civil rights against the growing authoritarianism of the state.

“Antentas has written a magisterial analysis of the failure of the Catalan struggle for independence, a defining political event of the 2010s.

In 2009, the IIRE published the collection Strategies of Resistance + ‘Who are the Trotskyists’. In 2025, fifteen years after the passing of our comrade, we want to publish a new, significantly augmented edition, collecting essays on history, politics and strategy. The aim is to have the book published in autumn 2025. To contribute to the costs of translation and production, the IIRE is raising 5,000 euros.
