Labour Government Betrays Fire Brigade Union!

London: Labour “Austerity” Cuts Betray Fire Brigade – as 1 in 5 Fire Engines Unavailable! (8.11.2025)

Jon Lambe, Fire Brigades Union regional secretary for London said:

“Senior leaders of the London Fire Brigade cannot claim to be keeping Londoners safe while 30 fire engines are unavailable due to cuts to firefighter crews. The service is operating beyond safe limits, overstretched and severely under-resourced.

“On Bonfire night this week, the service took over 800 calls in London. Yet we have fewer firefighters and resources to respond to increasing incidents due to years of cuts.

“We’re seeing millions borrowed for property while frontline equipment is facing being written off. This false economy will put the people of London at greater risk.”

South Africa: G20 Report Warning of Global Inequality Crisis Unveiled! (6.11.2025)

Drawing on data from the World Inequality Lab, the analysis showed that the world’s richest one percent have increased their average wealth by 1.3 million U.S. dollars since 2000, while the poorest 50 percent gained only 585 U.S. dollars, adjusted for inflation. Though income gaps between individuals have narrowed largely due to growth in China, the wealth divide between the Global North and South remains substantial.

“The world understands that we have a climate emergency; it is time we recognized that we face an inequality emergency too,” said Stiglitz, who chaired the six-member committee behind the report.

Much of the wealth at the top stems from “monopoly power and exploitation,” he said, adding that inequality is “not the laws of nature, but the laws of man.”

Kim Jong Un Pays Respect to Killed Chinese People's Volunteers!

DPRK: Kim Jong Un Visits Cemetery for Fallen Soldiers of the Chinese People’s Volunteers – Marking 75th Anniversary of China’s Entry into Korean War! (1.11.2025)

After 1948 – this ethnic Korean movement was assisted by Socialist China. When the US caused the war of 1950-1953 – the USSR provided the Red Airforce to guard the skies over North Korea and Soviet Technicians to aid the mechanical development of the North Korean military. Meanwhile, Socialist China organised millions of “Chinese People Volunteers” (CPV) who comprised the Land Forces of the “Internationalist” effort to free North (and South) Korea from US domination. The fact that the CPV had very little modern or advanced military equipment – and yet still achieved significant victories – is remarkable. Through sheer will-power the CPV (together with the North Korean Forces) inflicted endless defeats and reversals upon the US (and UN) Forces.
