Solidarity with Tasmanian Teachers

On the morning of 30 October 2025, the lawns of Hobart’s Parliament House filled with members of the Australian Education Union (AEU) rallying against excessive workloads and increasingly hostile working conditions faced by educators.

They were joined in solidarity by substantial numbers from the Community and Public Sector Union (CPSU) and the Tasmanian branch of the Health Services Union (HSU), alongside a contingent from the United Workers Union. Smaller groups from the Communications, Electrical and Plumbing Union (CEPU) and the Australian Manufacturing Workers Union (AMWU) also came out in support.

Speakers rallied against the growing strain on teachers caused by staff shortages, escalating violence from students, and a lack of support for high-needs students. Unions rejected the government’s latest offer of a 3 per cent pay rise, arguing it failed to address sector-specific issues. Members spoke about the issues in their industry, with AEU member Jake highlighting the poor working conditions causing teachers to burn out within five years, and how training would not fix the issues faced by teachers everyday.

Measly wage increases alone are unable to address the cost-of-living crisis facing essential workers like teachers. Teachers, nurses and other essential workers need subsidised public housing to allow them to serve their communities with the stability of a home.

Two Years of War - Generations of Resistance

Two years after the resistance struck at the occupation, we are once again joining the national mobilisation for Palestine. As the Palestinian people enter the next phase of their struggle to rebuild, it is more important than ever that we show our continual support.

We must continue to materially assist the Palestinian people outside of these mass mobilisations and maintain the networks that have been built in this latest phase of the struggle. Similarly, we must assist the peoples battling against colonialism around the globe, whether First Nations peoples here, West Papua, Kanaky and every other corner of the globe.

Victory until revolution. Glory to the Palestinian martyrs and the immortal bravery of the Palestinian people.

F**kwits, Not Heroes - Statement on the Racist and Fascist-Led Actions

Excerpts from our statement on the recent actions held by fascists and racists:

As many are starting to recognise, we need to organise in light of the fact that there is a war underway in this continent. This is something that First Nations peoples here are more than aware of, and have to experience every day of their lives.

It is something that the exploited, the homeless, the displaced, and the refugees who live here are relentlessly confronted with. It is the duty of all organisations and individuals who detest fascism, racism and the division it fosters to build unity and to organise in our communities where we are weak so that we are able to fight this struggle properly.

It is not enough to remain in our comfort zones any longer - we have a duty to assist those who are most at risk from the fascists that seek to prey on them.

We cannot fall into the habit of going tit for tat with fleeting mobilisations that do not build the structures nor the culture necessary to combat fascism. We must organise in our communities, talk to our neighbours, disrupt the conditions that provide opportunities to the fascists and the capitalists at every given opportunity. It is only through developing this solidarity and intersectional class consciousness that we will be able to win. In the immortal words of George Jackson:

“Settle your quarrels, come together, understand the reality of our situation, understand that fascism is already here, that people are already dying who could be saved, that generations more will live poor butchered half-lives if you fail to act. Do what must be done, discover your humanity and your love in revolution.”

― George L. Jackson

National Day of Action - Solidarity Against Fascism and Racism

In the wake of the fascist and racist mobilisations in recent weeks, the Australian Communist Party joins other organisations in standing in solidarity with First Nations peoples and migrant communities who are under threat.

The cowardly attack on Camp Sovereignty is indicative of how these thugs operate and how they are emboldened under the capitalist and colonialist status quo, and assisted by the institutions that maintain it.

It is the duty of all who stand against white supremacy, fascism and capitalism to come together in solidarity and unite against those who would seek to develop hatred and division in our communities.

We will be out on the streets today with thousands of others to show that racism and fascism will be challenged anywhere it tries to mobilise and rear its head.

More importantly, we will be continuing to organise in our communities that are most at risk to develop the solidarity and consciousness required to smash the fascist and racist beast.

There is a long road ahead, but we have done it before and we can do it again. Solidarity forever. Sovereignty never ceded.

Nationwide March for Palestine

This Sunday the 24th of August, there are rallies nationwide calling for action on Palestine. The marches are part of a push to put pressure on the government to sanction the Israeli Occupying Forces and to support the cause of the Palestinian people.

At the same time, we cannot limit our support of the Palestinian struggle to marches and parades. We must support the struggle directly through material aid.

Donate to our comrades from .c.y and their Neighbourhood Protection Committees today!

Statement by the Palestinian Communist Party on the 77th Anniversary of the Nakba of the Palestinian People

In solidarity with our comrades from the Palestinian Communist Party, we are sharing their statement to commemorate the 77th anniversary of the Nakba. In 1948, the Zionist militias uprooted and forcibly displaced 750,000 Palestinians from their homelands, destroying over 500 towns in the process.

This settler colonial project was not some isolated local event, but one supported by global imperialist powers who continue to assist in forced displacement, massacres and policies of ethnic cleansing.

Despite decades of this, the will of the Palestinian people refuses to be broken. Their resistance on all fronts remains an inspiration to all oppressed peoples of the world.

Glory to the martyrs, freedom for the prisoners, honor to the resistance.
Victory will surely belong to the struggling people of Palestine.

May Day 2025

This year, there are May Day events in every state and territory for local unionists and supporters to come down and attend. May Day is a day that commemorates the struggles of working class people and our organisations throughout history.

It is important that we don’t forget the power we have to change our lives and the realities we are confronted with both in the workplace and in the community. This is a day to commemorate all those who have come before us, and to fight for those who will come after us.

In a climate where the major parties are attacking the rights, health and safety of workers and the strength of unions, it is more important than ever to build working class solidarity among ourselves. Get down to your local event, and stay tuned for our upcoming local May Day film screenings!

Statement Issued by the Palestinian Communist Party Following the Ceasefire Agreement on Gaza

On behalf of our comrades in the Palestinian Communist Party, we are sharing their recent statement on the ceasefire agreement in Gaza. The resilience of the Palestinian peoples and the resistance have served as an inspiration to people in every corner of the globe.

Our Palestinian comrades encapsulated this fiery spirit firmly in stating:

“Despite Gaza’s suffering, it remains a symbol that unites hope and sorrow, bearing witness to the legendary resilience of its people and their insistence on life. The Palestinian will is stronger than all challenges, and our people will continue their struggle to achieve their legitimate rights to freedom and independence, no matter the difficulties or sacrifices.”
