This is Vijay Prashad, a well known "left-winger" globally and regular speaker on UK "anti-war" platforms.
In case it's not clear:
"Zero Covid" indicates support for the Chinese government against protesters.
And the highlighted Z indicates support for Russia's war in Ukraine.

- Stop the War's calls for: βStop sending arms [to Ukraine]; immediate ceasefire and peace negotiations.β This is effective support for Russian victory + a regime of terror. Democratic, stable peace will only come after a Ukrainian victory. workersliberty.org/story/2023-01-β¦ #stopputin
00:00- Prominent Indian socialist feminist Kavita Krishnan has taken a strong stand in support of #Ukraine. She explains why slogans about "peace" and "negotiations" avoid the real issues in the #UkraineRussiaWar. #StandWithUkraine
- NHS workers are continuing to organise against the 1% offer on pay, and for a 15% increase. Unison has announced a day of action on 30 March, and @NurseSayNO are planning activity on 1 April, backed by Unite and the GMB. workersliberty.org/story/2021-03-β¦ #NHSPay15
- Replying to @workerslibertyWe hope that this will finally put an end to Prashad being invited onto platforms that claim to be anti-war - since this is very clearly a statement of support for Russia's imperialist war in Ukraine.
- The Ukrainian left organisation Sotsialniy Rukh (Social Movement) has issued this statement. Solidarity with Ukraine, and the left internationalists in both Russia and Ukraine! facebook.com/social.ruh/pos⦠#Ukraine #Russia #RussiaUkraineCrisis #RussiaUkraineConflict #RussiaUkraine
- An appeal for international solidarity from the Ukrainian socialist organisation Social Movement.
- The election of George Galloway is not a step forward for the left. He fought the election on a platform of thinly-veiled transphobia and homophobia, appealing to religious social conservatism and nationalism. We need a left that fights consistently for equality, everywhere.
- At the Chinese embassy in London now. Our placards: "Neither Washington nor Beijing, but International Socialism" #ChinaProtests #ChinaUprising #ChinaRevolution
- Replying to @workerslibertyAnd as we stress, Prashad is a globally prominent figure. What will @ProgIntl and other organisations he is part of do or say about this?
- Vitaliy Dudin, Head of the Council of Ukraine's socialist organisation, SotsΡalniy Rukh (Social Movement), appeals to the UK left for solidarity. @SocRuch @UkraineSol @EuropeanWith #Ukraine #Solidarity #StandWithUkraine
00:00 - Replying to @VlStarodubtsev and @DSAMadisonIt would be great to know if people who make such arguments believe workers in the USSR should have demanded it stop arming the Vietnamese resistance against the US in the 60s and 70s. There is a tankie version of such argument, ie USSR/Vietnam good and US/Ukraine bad.
