The Workers' Party is observing the situation in south Korea with great interest. The lifting of martial law by President Yoon Suk Yeol marks a positive step, but south Korea remains in grave danger as a fascist government continues to wield power. This development underscores the profound challenges facing the working class in south Korea, [...]

Gardiner said: “A survey carried out by INTO, which over [...]

Workers’ Party condemns incursion by NATO proxies in Aleppo

The Workers’ Party condemns the recent large-scale incursion by NATO-backed terrorist groups into Aleppo as yet another manifestation of escalating imperialist aggression and destabilisation in the Middle East. These events, following the Israeli violations of the ceasefire with Hezbollah in the Lebanon, further expose the complicity of US and British imperialism in fuelling conflict across [...]

One-off £100 payment for pensioners does little to tackle fuel poverty

The one-off payment from Stormont of £100 for pensioners affected by winter fuel cuts is nowhere near acceptable and will leave many of our most vulnerable in dire circumstances this winter.  The reality is that this one-off payment of £100 will go to those who would have been receiving £200/£300 before the cuts which would [...]

Biden escalates conflict by greenlighting use of US-supplied missiles against Russia

The Workers' Party of Ireland condemns the decision by the Biden administration to greenlight the use of US-supplied long range ATACMS missiles against Russian territory, including Kursk.

Sinn Féin outrage over O’Devaney Gardens is sheer hypocrisy

Sinn Féin conspired to hand over O'Devaney Gardens to private profiteers. Complaining about the results is sheer hypocrisy, says Garrett Greene, Workers' Party representative for Cabra-Glasnevin. Greene said: “Sinn Féin housing spokesperson Eoin Ó Broin has expressed outrage at the rents set for the so-called affordable, cost-rental housing units in O’Devaney Gardens. However, this is [...]

U.S. blockade is the driving force behind energy crisis in Cuba

Since 18th October, Cuba has been enduring severe disruptions to its energy supply, a direct consequence of the blockade that prevents the import of fuel and essential resources. This is not merely an economic policy but a calculated act of war on Cuba’s socialist economy. Since 2019, the U.S. has intensified its persecution, sanctioning companies [...]

British Army terrorist Mike Jackson escapes justice through death

It is regrettable that the death of British Army officer Mike Jackson means he will never face justice for the many crimes he committed in Ireland. Jackson's legacy is one of murder and cover-ups. With the Parachute Regiment, he bears responsibility for Bloody Sunday in Derry and the Ballymurphy massacre in Belfast. He persistently withheld [...]

Workers left wanting, and the most vulnerable neglected, with unambitious Budget 2025

Budget 2025 shows a clear lack of intent from an unambitious government to lift or even seriously ease the hardships faced by Ireland’s working people. The government has failed once again to raise the minimum wage to a living wage. The Living Wage Technical Group calculates this to be €14.75 per hour at present, while [...]

Pat Finucane murder inquiry long overdue

The Workers’ Party welcomes the decision by the British government to hold a public inquiry into the murder of Pat Finucane. 35 years after his murder, it is long overdue that a public inquiry takes place. The delays to this decision are no doubt tied to the fact the British state wishes to avoid uncovering [...]
