Reel News is a London based activist video collective set up to document and publicise inspirational struggles against the neoliberal agenda in Britain and worldwide.
Had to scroll down so many pages to get past the Bloombergs and the Sky Newses and the Fox Newses and all those to finally find someone talking about this from a left perspective. Feels like we're not supposed to know about this unless it's through the establishment's narrative.
That's a fair point @ittixen - the algorithms are definitely not in our favour, and even less so when you refuse to allow advertising on the videos, as we do. Obviously hitting the subscribe button, and then the bell button to receive notifications of new videos will help 🙂
I'm bewildered by this dispute. How does a Trade's Union get to this stage of undemocratic practice, when it's coming from the top down. Do the Members simply vote with their eyes shut, pay their monthly dues, and hope for the best? Trade's Union democracy takes much more participation than that. Is it any wonder workers are having such a tough time? The Matchstick Girls were more aware and connected. In this age of information 'on demand', there's no excuse for - not - being aware of what's happening, let alone who to vote for and who - not - to vote for.
Very moving. I'm sorry VFP UK has disbanded but I hope you continue to speak out, to support each other and have friendships. I think lots of people around the world (especially the young "gen z") are not so convinced about war any more when they can see what it's like from so much footage & how that footage is available on social media. Maybe the reality can't stay hidden? But stories are also very valuable especially from the ex-forces people such as you. I'm glad VFP UK existed even if it couldn't last.
Yes this is what we've heard from a lot of people - obviously this is a model which is a direct challenge not only to Italian capitalism, but global capitalism, and as such they will try not to let people know about it! Keep in touch about your idea of the next occupation - at Reel News we will come and support it if you manage to get it off the ground, as well as continuing to support the workers at GKN. You can email us at info@reelnews.co.uk.
Palestine lives for more than tre thousand years even before Christ ! Israhell is not a country! Is on occupied state! Free Palestine 🇵🇸 from Zionist Occupation!🇵🇸❤️🕊️✌️✌️🕊️❤️🇵🇸
I spend a lot of time thru-hiking long-distance trails such as the Appalachian Trail. Many veterans come out to try and walk off the pain they feel for the moral injuries they suffered in war. Peace is the only way to support our troops.
Those "rich children" are doing far more to try and stop a genocide taking place than anyone else in the country - at considerable risk to themselves. In fact student movements have always been the spearhead of serious change historically. What are you doing yourself out of interest?
Look I'm sorry I'm sure this is a great video but i have to watch this for crim and I think I'm on the edge. On the edge of going insane and the edge of my windowsill.
and this is spectacularly missing the whole point. It is the illegal occupation, the violence of the Israeli state, the constant stealing of land, the shutting down of all peaceful avenues of protest (look at what happened on The Great March of Return), the daily harassment and killing of ordiinary Palestinians, the denial of basic necessities, the constant humiliation and so much more that leads to attempts to break out of what is a horrific open prison as we saw on October 7 - and unfortunately that will inevitably lead to violence. Do you condemn slaves for the violence they enacted on their owners in trying to end slavery? Or from first nations people trying to stop a genocide that wiped out virtually all their people? Of course not. If you're serious about finding a solution to the endless violence, you have to accept - as the Israeli newspaper immediately stated after October 7 - that the responsibility for October 7 lays squarely at the door of the Israeli government, the illegal occupation, the expansion of illagal settlements and the acceleration of the daily killings. So for lasting peace the occupation must end, this carnage from the IDF must end, and talks must start.
Wars are now won by ruining society's from within. Every country is falling apart with hatred and division, yet in other countries, you don't see this like china. Odd.
We do. That's why you'll find all the people on these mobilisations also fighting for decent public services, decent wages, decent housing, to cut energy bills - just to give a few examples. And fundamentally: none of our lives will substantially improve without a free Palestine. Everything is deeply interlinked. Think about the billions being wasted by Western governments to slaughter innocent children and what we could do with that money instead - and also the fact that Israel is so heavily funded by the West in order to protect their interests in the region - i.e. oil. If we are going to move away from burning fossil fuels to stop runaway climate change - which we need to start doing in the next five years - then a free Palestine, and actually an end to all wars, is absolutely essential. But maybe you'd like to say what are the issues youcare about most in your own country and we can talk about how to solve them?
Maybe don't call it Palestine as a whole and find separate leaders who actually have a voice for Egypt and surrounding countries. As it stands everyone In that area shares the Hamas ideology of extermination of Jews. You can't have a whole country that thinks that way!
@@CCDesigns87 that is quiet sijmply not true - and actually is in complete contradiction to the traditions in the region before zionism ruined everything, when jews, arabs and everyone else lived together in harmony. Lift the occupation and that can be the case again. But we have to get rid of this racist apartheid idea that people of different races and cultures can't live together.
