Bolivia: First Manifesto of the Anti-coup Coordinating Committee
31 October 2019 — Internationalist 360°
In Bolivia, the old ruling classes and privileged castes were expelled from the strategic places of the State, and a democratic and popular bloc was imposed that to this day governs with sovereignty and national independence. Never were political and economic transformations so profound, which we DO NOT WANT TO RENOUNCE AND WE ARE WILLING TO DEFEND because they are historical achievements of the Process of Change. Here is a dignified people who have resolved to be free and who are going to have to face it. Our response will be forceful, determined, UNITARY and within the framework of the historic program of national liberation forged in the popular struggles.

UK Election – One million under 45s register to vote in one month

TruePublica Editor: Bad news for Boris Johnson keeps piling up as election campaigning is in now full swing.
First up and quite serious for all sorts of reasons is the news that evidence that could lead to criminal charges against the pro-Brexit campaign led by Boris Johnson and his key adviser, Dominic Cummings, has now been passed by police to the criminal prosecution authorities. This is significant because the police would not have submitted evidence if it thought it could not bring and win a case like this. Is this a political move to get back at the Tories for slashing 20,000 police officers and politicising the force over the last decade? Maybe, maybe not.
