Aimé Césaire (1913-2008) - "Genocide by Substitution"

How the Far-Right Stole Aimé Césaire’s Communist Concept of “Genocide by Substitution”! (19.10.2025)

The far-right is essentially intellectually (and morally) dead in the water, but the far-left is prevented from effectively organising and delivering the coup de grace by a hostile bourgeois judicial system. This being the case, the far-right, whilst demonising the far-left, often steals leftist ideas and distorts them for its own deluded purposes. One such idea even a common observer of the far-right will encounter is that of the “Great Replacement” – a conspiracy theory which falsely suggests that White Europeans are being stealthily replaced by the mass immigration of non-White peoples. Various dates are given to perpetuate a false sense of urgency designed to compel far-right supporters to physically attack, hurt, and disturb anyone they deem “foreign”. The far-right blames “the Jews” for this fantasy – but what if I told you this theory in fact has its roots in the Black (Communist) fight against the White colonisation of non-White countries led by Aimé Césaire? The Jews are in fact one of the victims of this colonial policy worldwide – with what Israel is doing in Gaza being the exception.

Meerkats at Hobbledown - Epsom!

Hobbledown: May Bank Holiday! (6.5.2025)

On Bank Holiday Monday (May 5th 2025) we spent most of the day at the local petting farm known as Hobbledown (in Epsom). For about four-years (2005-2099), I taught Taijiquan at a nearby leisure centre twice a week – so I know the area well. Furthermore, throughout the years, we have regularly took our children to interact with the animals and for them to have fun in the huge soft play hosted in-doors. Of course, there has been a massive investment and restructuring at Hobbledown which has been very successful at a time when the economy is in melt-down and political incompetence is at an all-time high. It is well designed, with plenty of different animals living in wide open well-managed spaces.

Workers Unite in Spain!

South Tenerife: Highest Participation in Hotel Workers Strike – Over 80% Support! (20.4.2025)

The previously proposed agreement, brokered with the assistance of the Canary Islands President, included a 6% overall salary increase and measures to safeguard purchasing power. A commitment was also made to establish a new negotiating committee by the end of April.

Despite the breakdown in talks, the regional government has reported that the strike is unfolding calmly and without incident. The Deputy Minister for Tourism, José Manuel Sanabria, stressed that while the government respects the right to strike, it must also ensure the safety and well-being of guests, as the strike coincides with one of the busiest times of the year.

Mao Zedong - Great Leader!

The Duplicitous Mayor of London & London Assembly Elections – 2024! (12.4.2024)

The workers definitely need effective Unions – but what the workers do not need is duplicitous Trotskyism – the aim of which is the destruction of all legitimate Marxist-Leninist movements! Marxist-Leninism – and Maoism – is the ideology that possesses the power to organise the workers (mind and body) so that the means of production are well and truly “seized” and taken control off by the Proletariat. Of course, none of the so-called Candidates above come anywhere near this genuine objective. Instead, an acceptable level of oppression and racism will be allowed throughout society and tinkered with around the edges.

PFLP & Fatah Solidarity!

Lebanon: PFLP & Fatah Hold Solidarity Meeting! (7.2.2024)

During the meeting, the bilateral relationship, ways of cooperation and coordination, and strengthening the joint framework of action between all Palestinian National Action Factions and the framework of the Palestine Liberation Organization were reviewed, confirming that the Organization is the unifying framework for all factions, strengthening its role, and activating its political frameworks and Trade Union Federations.

The two sides praised the struggle and sacrifices of the Palestinian people and their Resistance in Gaza, the West Bank and Jerusalem, and stressed the role of UNRWA and its preservation as it is the true witness to the tragedy of our Palestinian people. They called on donor countries not to submit to Zionist dictates and stop funding UNRWA, and they appealed to supporting countries to increase their funding for UNRWA.

WWII: My Tribute to the Excellent British ‘Home Guard’ (LDVF) and Some of My Published Work! (6.10.2023)

My maternal (‘Gibson’) family used to live in Lewisham, East London – until they were bombed-out by Hitler during the Blitz of September 1940 (the Blitz would go on to kill 70,000 British people between 1940-1941 – with 40,000 deaths in London alone). The Gibson family were then evacuated to the ‘Forest Hill’ area of Oxfordshire – due to them having a ‘nephew’ living in the area. In 1983, a book focusing on local history was commissioned entitled ‘Forest Hill with Shotover – A Portrait (1983)’. This was published by the ‘Forest Hill Women’s Association’. The Story of my grandfather – Arthur Gibson – and his family arriving in the area is recorded on Pages 28-29
