Our public meeting in December 2025 presented the Manifesto published by the ICC on the occasion of its 50th anniversary.  It is mainly devoted to a global analysis of the last fifty years of capitalist convulsions and class struggle.

Saturday February 7 2026, 2-5pm UK time The US attack on Venezuela, the mounting threat to annex Greenland and to once again launch air strikes against the regime in Tehran confirm that it is the world’s strongest power that has become the main factor in the acceleration of chaos and disintegration, a process which bears with it the threat of the destruction of humanity.  

The massacre of civilians, always a feature of oppressive systems, constantly reaches new, sickening heights under capitalism which thrashes about in its own decomposition and moral decay.

The real reasons behind the kidnapping of Maduro - and the real consequences: a further dive into imperialist chaos

Indignation against the massacres in Gaza is being manipulated by the bourgeoisie, especially is left wing

The ICC considered it important to mark the 120th anniversary of this historic moment in the movement of the working class by holding an online public meeting in English (together with similar meetings in other languages), aimed at showing its relevance to the class struggle today.

The working class has everything to lose in letting itself be swept up in a wave of popular protests, blinded by democratic illusions about the possibility of a ‘cleaner’ capitalist state.

The class confrontations currently shaking Belgium are illustrative of the context in which workers' struggles will develop in the current period, with attacks coming from all sides due to the acceleration of the economic crisis, interacting in a whirlwind with the expansion of militarism and the spread of chaos.

On the importance of Congresses in the history of the workers' movement, and of this ICC Congress which marks the 50th anniversary of our organisation.
