The United Kingdom was the most proletarian country in the world. This was hardly the image it projected overseas, or within the empire, or to itself. Yet it had the largest and perhaps the most uniform urban working class –rivalled in size only by the German and the American. In no place other than the United Kingdom could it be said that up to 80 per cent of the people were known as the ‘working classes’. The British people were ‘manual workers’,they were ‘hands’, ‘housewives’. Most were ‘respectable’, ‘decent’ indeed. A minority were so far from being ‘gentle’ they were labelled ‘rough’. The people were not, as in most of the world, peasants, but proletarians living in a complex interconnected society. Their lives were recorded by the hand of a bureaucrat – a shipping clerk, a census enumerator, a War Office pen-pusher,an official in a labour exchange – not by their own hands.<br/>Labour, work, toil were, aside from sleep, what most did with most of their time. Necessity’s sharp pinch was never far away. Most owned very little – three-quarters had less than £100 (a low annual wage) in wealth. They owned very little more than their clothes and furniture and kitchen utensils. They were branded on the tongue, speaking in local accents,different from those of the gentlefolk above them. They were marked by their clothing: they wore cloth caps if male, and if female might have, at the beginning of the century, covered their heads with a shawl. They paid rent to private landlords, and they worked for private employers. If employed, they were paid weekly, and from 1911 were subject to a specific working-class poll-tax, National Insurance. The great majority paid no income tax, and if they did they paid no National Insurance. They started work earlier in the morning than the middle class. There were special ‘workmen’s tickets’ on trains running before 8 a.m.; such fares accounted for some 5 per cent ormore of passenger revenue in the 1930s, and one-third of the ordinary number of tickets sold (excluding season tickets).<br/>They had schools, and many other institutions, exclusively to themselves too. So-called ‘elementary’ schools run by local authorities from the 1902 Education Act onwards divided from the interwar years into infants (to seven), junior (to eleven) and senior elementary schools (to fourteen), with an increasing distinction between the first two (primary schools) and secondary schools –terminology which remained even as the system changed radically. Unlike middle-class schools they were mixed gender. The spectator sport of the working-class male was football – not rugby or cricket – a game successfully implanted by the British working class all over the world, with, oddly, the exception of the former British empire. In terms of intellectual life the stark truth was that the working class did not have very much it could call its own. <br/>Yet this working class developed an unusually strong trade union movement, both for the skilled and the unskilled, especially for men. These trade unions created a political party itself steeped in the world of work which emerged as a national party in the interwar years. In the 1920s, and especially from 1945, it gave the House of Commons a significant number of working-class members and formed a majority government. In 1950 the United Kingdom still had one of the very largest working-class movements in the capitalist world, and certainly the most organized. By telling the story of the Labour Party as part of the story of labour, we can see that its power rested on a quite different basis from that of the other important parties. It was always subservient or in opposition to greater political powers. The Labour Party was in office from time to time; the industrial, military, financial and professional arms of the Liberal and Conservative parties were in power all of the time. Labour’s primary task was to get workers,specifically trade unionists, into local government, and into the House of Commons. It was not a party with a complete alternative set of policies and prescriptions, for example in foreign affairs and military strategy.

In the summer of 1936 Germany and Italy organized military intervention in Spain, Germany entrenching herself in the north of Spain and in Spanish Morocco, and Italy in the south of Spain and in the Balearic Islands. Having seized Manchuria, Japan in 1937 invaded North and Central China, occupied Peking, Tientsin and Shanghai and began to oust her foreign competitors from the occupied zone. In the beginning of 1938 Germany seized Austria, and in the autumn of 1938 the Sudeten region of Czechoslovakia.

The main props of this regime were the Nine-Power Pact in the Far East, and the Versailles Treaty and a number of other treaties in Europe. The League of Nations was set up to regulate relations between countries within the framework of this regime, on the basis of a united front of states, of collective defence of the security of states. However, three aggressive states, and the new imperialist war launched by them, have upset the entire system of this post-war peace regime.

(Laughter.)</span><br/><span class="orangeQuote"><br/><But war is inexorable. It cannot be hidden under any guise. For no "axes," "triangles" or "anti-Comintern pacts" can hide the fact that in this period Japan has seized a vast stretch of territory in China, that Italy has seized Abyssinia, that Germany has seized Austria and the Sudeten region, that Germany and Italy together have seized Spain – and all this in defiance of the interests of the non-aggressive states. The war remains a war; the military bloc of aggressors remains a military bloc; and the aggressors remain aggressors.</span><br/><span class="orangeQuote"><br/><It is a distinguishing feature of the new imperialist war that it has not yet become universal, a world war. The war is being waged by aggressor states, who in every way infringe upon the interests of the non-aggressive states, primarily England, France and the U.S.A., while the latter draw back and retreat, making concession after concession to the aggressors.</span><br/><span class="orangeQuote"><br/><Thus we are witnessing an open redivision of the world and spheres of influence at the expense of the non-aggressive states, without the least attempt at resistance, and even with a certain amount of connivance, on the part of the latter.</span><br/><span class="orangeQuote"><br/><Incredible, but true.</span><br/><span class="orangeQuote"><br/><To what are we to attribute this one-sided and strange character of the new imperialist war?</span><br/><span class="orangeQuote"><br/><How is it that the non-aggressive countries, which possess such vast opportunities, have so easily, and without any resistance, abandoned their positions and their obligations to please the aggressors?</span><br/><span class="orangeQuote"><br/><Is it to be attributed to the weakness of the nonaggressive states? Of course not.

They are afraid that the second imperialist world war may also lead to the victory of the revolution in one or several countries.</span><br/><span class="orangeQuote"><br/><But at present this is not the sole or even the chief reason. The chief reason is that the majority of the non-aggressive countries, particularly England and France, have rejected the policy of collective security, the policy of collective resistance to the aggressors, and have taken up a position of nonintervention, a position of "neutrality."</span><br/><span class="orangeQuote"><br/><Formally speaking, the policy of non-intervention might be defined as follows: "Let each country defend itself from the aggressors as it likes and as best it can. That is not our affair. We shall trade both with the aggressors and with their victims." But actually speaking, the policy of non-intervention means conniving at aggression, giving free rein to war, and, consequently, transforming the war into a world war. The policy of non-intervention reveals an eagerness, a desire, not to hinder the aggressors in their nefarious work: not to hinder Japan, say, from embroiling herself in a war with China, or, better still, with the Soviet Union: to allow all the belligerents to sink deeply into the mire of war, to encourage them surreptitiously in this, to allow them to weaken and exhaust one another; and then, when they have become weak enough, to appear on the scene with fresh strength, to appear, of course, "in the interests of peace," and to dictate conditions to the enfeebled belligerents.</span><br/><span class="orangeQuote"><br/><Cheap and easy! </span><br/>J V Stalin, Report on the Work of the Central Committee to the Eighteenth Congress of the C.P.S.U.(B.) , (Delivered March 10, 1939.) <a href="https://revolutionarydemocracy.org/Stalin/18report.htm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://revolutionarydemocracy.org/Stalin/18report.htm</a> No.478373

The German documents now available now shows that this lunatic counter offensives massively degraded the German Werhmacht army fighting capabilities. All the lost battles and encirclements and this lunatic counter-offensive stuff massively degraded the Werhmacht German fighting capabilities and so all of these lost battles and all of these you must be kidding counter-offensives were critical in slowing the German advance but especially degrading its offensive capability even more quickly. Whenever an army moves it loses a great deal of its offensive capability in winning it doesn't have the same offensive capability it had at the start but the Soviets degraded the Germans even more than we understood previously. So what Stalin is blamed for in much of the literature which then gives him credit for learning now - on the German side he's actually being given a kind of grudging credit for the way they fought the war.

most so-called anti imperialists (of the sort who think the average Briton should feel guilt for empire) project backwards in time a British nationalism which did not really exist until after the second world war. Some of the most interesting analysis comes from those who conceive of Britain herself as one of the many nations which emerged from the collapse of the British Empire.
the case of Caribbean migrants to the UK postwar is an interesting case in point: For many the shock was not how terribly imperialist British people were, but that they were not very imperial in their mindset at all, with migrants treated as foreigners rather than as fellow citizens of a British Empire.
No.478454
>>478453Kinda hard to explain but one example is accents, like some accents are associated with a certain class. Like RP is seen as a posh upper class accent, and a Cockney or a Northern accent is seen as more working class. Depending on what accent you have you'll get treated differently by different people, e.g Northerners being respected less than people in the south.
Also if you're from (petit-)bourgeois background you're more likely to get better grades, go to better Universities, get better jobs etc than a person from a working class background. People who have gone to a private school make up around 7% of population but make up the majority of politician, judges, CEOs etc

>>478516she is liked by rightists and idiots aided by a media consensus that likes the idea of her as a tough but necessary leader (something even labour people let themselves be roped into believing), but there is a substantial part of the country that rightly hates her. if i had to put a figure on it, it would be something like 40% hate, 60% positive+indifferent. but it should be remembered this is now 30 years since she's left office and she's still rightly remembered as the person who destroyed large swathes of the country. despite the best efforts of propagandists, that hasn't gone away.
it's also rather regionally split. if you're in an area that hated her, i.e. pretty much all the areas normal people live, pretty much everyone will hate her except a few contrarian virgins. It's in the godforsaken Tarquinite hellholes that are Conservative safe seats where you find most of those who love her, and the middle-class swing seats where you find the people who don't really care.
on (say) television, i would say my impression is that it's more socially acceptable to speak ill of Thatcher than of Reagan, to the point where on a comedy show or whatever, i would be suspicious of those who passed up an opportunity to say as much. though in part this could be ascribed to the fact that a disproportionate amount of 1980s comedy was about what a cunt she was anyway.
she was given an all but state funeral showing what reverence she's held in by "the establishment" (the last PM to get a state funeral was Churchill, and before him I believe it was only offered to Disraeli. most PMs have private funerals.), but perhaps you can read a lot about the animosity she inspires from the fact that after dithering to and fro, they decided
not to make it an official state funeral. (instead a "ceremonial" funeral with military honours… "in accordance with her own wishes")
nevertheless in official circles there's a sort of tedious consensus that "something had to be done", that "we couldn't have kept going on like this", and that essentially she did what needed to be done - if perhaps in a way that could have been kinder and so on - the thing that even Thatcher-haters lack is full comprehension of just how bad she was on the national level, usually because they're blinded by how badly she fucked their own area. for example: it's well known she fucked the miners, but this gets simplified into a debate between "keep mining" and "scrap mining", tipping the scales towards Thatcher if you accept that the industry was uneconomical. the reality is that she shuttered the industry quickly essentially to fuck the miners, to cause human misery, when it wouldn't have cost a single penny more to wind the industry down slowly and give mining communities a chance to diversify their economies. that she squandered the oil wealth is sometimes known (mostly by Scots who feel entitled to it), but that a secondary effect of that squandering was to further destroy the competitiveness of British industry - industry she theoretically wanted to unleash! - by driving up the value of the pound to unsustainable levels, that tends to be forgotten. unfortunately, then, even if the correct anti-Thatcher line wins out (and it has surely won itself a place in history, such that we can't retcon away how many hated her as we did with, say, Churchill.) it will probably be one that comes from a sort of humanist, sort of "hurt unemployed miner" kind of place, rather than a rigorous historical takedown of the worst prime minister in British history.
tl;dr people were genuinely celebrating, a lot of people do really hate her, but not everyone. as a rule of thumb, look at an election map from the 1980s: if the area is red, they were probably partying, while if it's blue it's probably full of the kind of vermin who have a soft spot for her.

I wonder why the UK's Communist scene is much smaller than Continental Europe's, guessing its because Labour sucks up all the people who would potentially join a Communist party. Since we have a lot of people wasting their time with the sisyphean task of reforming Labour into becoming socialists.
ACORN is another good org that you should join too.

>>478568> I wonder why the UK's Communist scene is much smaller than Continental Europe's, guessing its because Labour sucks up all the people who would potentially join a Communist party.It’s this plus lack of PR , people who would become communists elsewhere get swallowed up into the “labour ideology”.
Also would concur with this post , heard very little as about CPB aside from it being inactive/dull.
Acorn is decent if you have it in local area.

Guys, I need a brit to lend me a hand.
I wanted to watch "A very british coup" (1988) which seemed awesome. I managed to get the vids. But there is no subtitle and I intended to share it with friends, who don't speak an english as good as me. So just getting the english subtitles would help a lot (I might even translate them at some point).
it is available for brits who have channel4 or amazon prime, and seem to have subs. Please, rip/share subs for a fellow comrade who likes your shit.

I move from my country to an english speaking country ( Great Britain ) last year in order to study a graduate degree. Sorry for my english, I am ESL.
I have to take elective courses outside of my degree. In my university with zoom call I got in trouble. I call person a "he" and they get offended. Last year I call this person a "he" and no problem. I look up this person, male name and look male. I get confused and say "but he refer to male, this person male", people get mad. I apologise. Few week later, I accidentally say "that person is a he". I apologise, did not mean to offend.
Last week I say accidentally "it" about this person. Person starts crying on zoom call. Emailing me now that I need to get expelled and about contacting immigration . Other people too on twitter talking about me, calling me bigot and transphobic. They say I do not try and am doing it on purpose. I try very hard to remember english grammar, but I am doing engineering and study hard maths. I am tired a lot of time and trying to remember english grammar become hard. Thinking of this makes me upset, I try very hard. Its an accident, I not do this on purpose. This is so dumb to me, I do not care enough about this person life to do on purpose. I have better thing to do.
I know my grammar in english is not the best. I speak three languages other than english. Most of my english skill is from media, but I can pronounce things OK. In my native language past tense is not always used. Sometimes this confuse me in english. I have a problem with the pronouns of english, because in my native language when you speak there is no difference between male and female. Sometime by accident I might mix "she", "he" and "it".
I do not know what to do. I am mad and upset, I try very hard and they try to expel me now because I call someone a "he". I do not want to fight people, I just want to do my study in peace. I am now scared to go on zoom because of these people.

>>478605Basically, the foundation of her left economics is expressed primarily through the promotion of co-ops. (She is otherwise a generally good kenseyian)
I think co-ops are both a dead end and not particularly useful to any left project. It doesn't transform or alter market relations to production. So called "workplace democratisiation" matter little when you must still awnser to the demands of the market. In some way its worse as it naturalizes the interest of the capitalist into all members of the company. For example this Pencil factory has to increase production to make profit(which in a co-op is reflected in the workers wage.) Therefore the workers co-op comes together for various proposals to increase production (Could be longer hours, higher hourly work goals, more brutal conditions) Now instead of a boss putting these on you its enforced by other workers within the company. This is far worse as it creates a panoticon like condition within the workplace, generates interpersonal issues, prevents solidarity between workers.
Also I think people in pmc carears overestimate the desire for workplace democracy. Like I don't wanna have a democratic contest to decide my manager or shifts or how the company works. Don't want any more meetings or things to worry about.
Just pay me more and let me fuck off. Unions are a much better veichal for this than co-ops. Also unions on industry levels prevent worker competition between firms. Where as co-ops promote workers fighting between firms for conditions etc.

>>478615> Just pay me more and let me fuck off. Wtf? The whole point of socialism is to tell your boss to fuck off. Coops may have these problems, but that only because they are still under capitalism. That doesn’t mean workers aren’t better off in coop than a company.

>Coops may have these problems, but that only because they are still under capitalisWhich is what all the co-op wankers suggest. If you wanna do socalist mmm and then build up co-ops under that model be my guest. But under capitalism they serve little purpose but to misitify capital relations and fail to amend most of capitals core problems.
> That doesn’t mean workers aren’t better off in coop than a company.I would suggest frequently they are as explained above. Even if there is some marginal gain its incidental to the co~op model and would be better served by mass unionisation.

>>478618A big reason managers suck is because they represent the next level of managers above them, and those managers represent the next level, etc until you get to the CEO, then the shareholder board of directors. That is, managers represent the need for profit. They are the voice of capital.
No.478620
>>478618Does your brain work in opposite land? How does providing an alternative way to run a business 'misitify capital relations'? Nor are coops ever intended to amend captialism. You are letting perfect be the enemy of good.
>Even if there is some marginal gain its incidental to the co~op model and would be better served by mass unionisation.Not an either-or situation. You can unionize all the workplaces you want, but sooner or latter you will cross the bridge and replaces the owners will something to reach socialism, whether it be the state (nationalization), coops or a combination of both models.
No.478621
>>478618surely co-ops clarify capital relations rather than mystifying them, insofar as they make clear that the enemy is an abstract system rather than a human oppressor. (even if it's more fun and satisfying to have a human face to put on the system and to threaten to smash in, it also carries the risk of imagining that if only the
right human was in the boss's seat, everything would be fine.)
also in an idle way i imagine that a 100% co-operative economy could shift from typical market relations in interesting ways by having co-ops bartering between one another without consideration of price. (i.e. why have the dairy co-op and the crisps co-op both sell 100% of their stuff to the supermarket co-ops at variable price when each one could send a % of their production to one another, since the employees of each regularly buy crisps and dairy anyway. in the right circumstances, say inflationary times, this could provide more stability for members of certain co-ops than relying on money-market operations.)

(once in a stronger position than that of the Conservatives, due to a massive membership.)
with no money and declining income the party needs to cut costs to not go broke.* as a result they want like 1/4 of their workforce to take voluntary redundancy. (i.e. step down)
that's incredibly unlikely because holy shit 1/4 of the entire workforce, which means the party might have to try and fire people, which obviously unions don't want and the employees in question don't want.

People that rich don't care about "wasting" money, it's pretty much impossible for them to spend enough money in a personal capacity for anything to truly be an observable waste for them, it's like how you technically waste money when you can't be bothered standing around for your 1p change in a shop so it goes in the till/charity box. They are so rich the only issue they have with their money is how to spend it on new investments to accumulate more money. Wearing a new pair of clothes hand selected and fitted by their personal fashion guru and tailor and brought to them every day is as normal to them as you putting on your clothes in the morning. Bezos has a huge mansion in Mayfair he keeps just in case he needs to go to London. The guy has probably forgotten about some of his mansions he has so many.
Remember that a million isn't considered rich nowadays, and even guys with double digit millions are going to be on the poorer end of luxury doomsday bunker buyers. These people can afford bunkers that make the home of the richest guy you know look like a hovel on every continent and then some and have a private jet on standby to get them there, and it is their equivalent of having home insurance.

On this very day 20 years ago at approximately this very time, Tony Blair was waking up and preparing for his speech to the TUC advocating British Membership of the Eurozone. A perfect symbol, then, for the defining turning point of his premiership.
Know this: without the events of September 11th 2001, Britain would not have voted to leave the European Union in 2016, and this should be stated more often and remembered as a helpful guide to the bizarre world that is politics. It's not that the speech would've been some epoch-defining thing that totally changed the debate - it's merely symbolic of where the government's focus was. Absent 9/11, Blair would've had much less work to do regarding selling American foreign policy to a skeptical world and public and so would have had the time and political capital to hold the Euro referendum he so badly wanted. Win and the economic consequences would be so unpredictable (almost certainly in the negative, though perhaps in the "so bad as to destroy the single currency" way in luckier outcomes) as to frustrate any attempt at soothsaying, lose and some of the anti-European pressure which had been building since the 1990s would've been released, significantly lowering the chance that you get the UKIP-Success>Cameron-Opportunistic-Hubris axis that lead to the referendum we actually had. Additionally, with one L already on their record the sense that any full membership referendum would be our only real chance to have a say would be diminished, since there would be precedent within the last 20 or so years on the currency question.

wonder what the cost would be to have government policy be that the yearly rent for student accommodation to UK students can't be more than the student loan for that particular year.
both in literal-financial terms (whether unis or the state eats it) and in inequality terms. it probably wouldn't help any student who can't rely on their parents to buy their food, so it could just be a big subsidy for tarqs. but it could also be a middle class subsidy, which could be popular, and it's a pisstake that uni accommodation can be a basically state-dependent entity which nevertheless chooses to price people out.
