Documents by Paul Mason
| Title | Document type | Publication date | Subject(s) | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Document:Labour: The Way Ahead | article | 31 July 2016 | Labour Party Jeremy Corbyn Owen Smith UK/General election/2017 | If Jeremy Corbyn wins on 24 September 2016, we should say to his opponents inside the Parliamentary Labour Party: end the passive resistance. We have something that neither Brown nor Miliband ever had, and which Blairism lost ten years ago. A story that makes sense, a strategy that can win, an unprecedented mass membership; and a leader who, in the face of intense pressure, gets stronger. |
| Document:Slumlands — filthy secret of the modern mega-city | webpage | 8 August 2011 | Slum | |
| Document:The new alliance between anti-vaxxers and the far right is a deadly threat | Article | 1 August 2021 | "Terrorism" Zionism Nuremberg Trials Genocide "Extremism" Conservative Party "Radicalisation" Violence COVID-19 "COVID-19/Vaccine" "Vaccine passport" "Vaccine hesitancy" "Far right" WEF Great Replacement | "Though they claim to be “peaceful”......by setting themselves up as the victims of genocide, the anti-vaxxers give themselves permission to threaten violence.....Those behind the “crime” are said to include governments and the World Economic Forum (WEF)" because the real fascists are the ones that oppose oppressive government mandates and forced injections. |
