Now that capitalism is forced to increase its attacks on the working class in
order to preserve its profits, the working class is driven into struggle bynecessity, necessity to preserve the old social welfare benefits that had beenwon through struggle in the first place, and to fight against the cost of livingcrisis. This can be seen in the mass wave of strikes that has taken place inFrance to defend pensions, a struggle that is continuing. It can be seen in theunprecedented wave of strikes in the UK, involving different sectors. ---- Thetempo of the class struggle is speeding up. However, all of these struggles aredefensive, in response to the vicious attacks of the boss class. Whilst thesestrikes are leading to a re-emerging class consciousness, to the awareness thatworkers belong to a class and that solidarity and direct action are necessary, weare far from a situation where our class is confident enough to develop its ownbase organisations and to proceed to profound social change.That is why it is important now to push the idea of grassroots organisationsagainst the machinations of the union bureaucrats, who are hindering andobstructing strike action both here in the UK and abroad.The ACG, Angry Workers, Plan C, and Communist Workers Organisation will discussrecent and forthcoming strikes in the UK and elsewhere.
