Trump hosts former head of Syrian Al-Qaeda Al-Jolani to the White House Tue Nov 11, 2025 21:01 | imc
Was that not what the War on Terror was about ?
Today things finally came full circle. It was Al-Qaeda that supposedly caused 9/11 and lead to the War on Terror but really War of Terror by the USA and lead directly to the deaths of millions through numerous wars in the Middle East.
And yet today the former head of Syrian Al-Qaeda, Al-Jolani was hosted in the White House by Trump. A surreal moment indeed.
In reality of course 9/11 was orchestrated by inside forces that wanted to launch the War of Terror and Al-Qaeda has been a wholly backed American tool ever since then.

Study of 1.7 Million Children: Heart Damage Only Found in Covid-Vaxxed Kids Fri Oct 31, 2025 23:44 | imc
A major study involving 1.7 million children has found that heart damage only appeared in children who had received Covid mRNA vaccines.
Not a single unvaccinated child in the group suffered from heart-related problems.
In addition, the researchers note zero children from the entire group, vaccinated or unvaccinated, died from COVID-19.
Furthermore, the study found that Covid shots offered the children very little protection from the virus, with many becoming infected after just 14 to 15 weeks of receiving an injection.

Assisted Suicide Will Poison the British Culture of Care Mon Sep 07, 2026 19:00 | Simon Cavadino
Old people in care homes regularly say "Oh I just want to die", but they almost never mean it, says Simon Cavadino. The danger of assisted suicide is staff will start to treat them like they do.

The BBC appears to have predetermined Nigel Farage's guilt over his 'failure' to declare donations. But when Sallust complained, the BBC's complaints department couldn?t even understand the problem.

Holborn and St Pancras By-Election: Why You Should Bet Against Labour Mon Sep 07, 2026 15:00 | Mark Littlewood
Labour are odds-on to hold Holborn and St Pancras ? but the Greens at 2/1 look tempting, particularly if it?s held after the Budget, and a four-way split isn?t out of the question, says Mark Littlewood.

Greenland?s Icecap Grew This Year Mon Sep 07, 2026 11:00 | Paul Homewood
Greenland's icecap is doing just fine, says Paul Homewood. It's still much larger than it has been for most of the last 10,000 years and if it is shrinking at all, it is doing so no faster than a century ago.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4I was a guest at the Ard Fheis on Saturday and the turnout was quite large on the day with the delegates packed into the hall. Quite a few of them were local members, activists and supporters. The standard of the speakers was quite high and overall it was a very good ard fheis with a good selection of speakers and issues raised. I was very impressed with Cllr. Halligan's speech and the overall impression I got is that judging by the turnout and speaking to local WP activists, is that the come election day, the WP will surprise alot of people and make a mockery of the local Red C opinion poll.
Well done to all concerned. I wish John Halligan all the best.
Glad to see that the WP have put their Árd Fheis documents and speeches online,along with plenty of photos and a video of Seán Garland's Ard Fheis address. It's been a while coming but the new WP website is a vast improvement on its predecesser.
From reading the content of the speechs and resolutions at the WP Ard Fheis, two generalisations can be fairly made:
Most of the content is fairly uncontentious left of centre stuff. The WP have now arrived at what might be called post-stalinist politics which combines a version of left-social democracy with some hang-overs of past authoritarianism (for example, in the case of the WP, continued links with Chinese and North Korean state capitalism). This type of politics is common amongst former 'official' (no pun intended) Communist Parties in various western European countries. It is epitomised by the PCF (French Communist Party) whose disastrous result in the recent French election (1.9%) and eclipse by the post-Trotskyist LCR (4.1%) is the result of their involvement in neo-liberal coalition governments with the Socialist Party and dependence on union bureaucracy.
While I hope Cllr. Halligan does well, siimply because he is the most left wing candidate in that constituency, lets have no illusions about his politics. To quote:
"I do though passionately believe that we can marry economic success and high international achievement with our legitimate aspirations for a fair and decent society – but only if we elect sincere people who want to make a difference."
Nothing could be clearer: the working class just need to elect sincere people who will balance economic sucess with a fair society. Nothing the Greens, Sinn Féin or the old comrades in Labour would'nt agree with.
Don't make the mistake of thinking that "economic success" means capitalism. Seán Garland's speech is very clear on that question as can be seen and heard from the ongoing video. The Workers' Party still sticks to the principle that the producers (i.e. workers) should control the means of production - workers power.
