Following last week’s strike vote by nearly 40,000 rail workers, the media witch-hunt is a pre-emptive attack. Its purpose is to justify state repression against rail workers and cast any national rail strike as an act of treason. The working class will foot the bill through savage austerity, including the gutting of the National Health Service, transport and infrastructure, social care, public education and welfare. Britain’s ruling class is using NATO’s war in Ukraine as a battering ram, demanding national unity against the class struggle. This fight must be waged in unity with the international working class in the struggle for socialism.
