Comrades, what’s the best things to read about the current far right ascendancy in the UK? Specifically: (a) what’s particular about the current formation, and (b) how to rebuild an anti-fascist movement?

Crisis looms for the farmers and there’s only one man responsible.

That should tell you everything you need to know.
The killing of Charlie Kirk is hitting Congress hard.

Some lawmakers were close with him. For others, his death is the latest reminder of their own exposure to attacks.

“It’s changed the atmosphere in the place,” Mike Johnson said.

The key here in Nepal's uprising and resignation of its prime minister and most of its government is government corruption. The flagrant lavish lifestyle of nepo babies of politicians, versus the lives of the working poor generated peaceful protests. Shutting off social media was the final straw.
A social media ban has triggered a crisis in Nepal and led to the resignation of the prime minister.
