Left-wingers are celebrating Lula’s election victory in Brazil. But the far-right threat of Bolsonarismo remains. And in the context of capitalist crisis, Lula will have few crumbs to offer. Workers and youth must fight for revolutionary change.

This week’s planned protests in Cuba ended in failure, with the forces of reaction unable to mobilise ordinary people to their cause. On the other side, young communists are beginning to organise in defence of the Cuban Revolution.
