Following recent revelations about advanced British weaponry being used in Ukraine, this week's presentation is about the weapons trade. It will look at how weapons companies fuel wars, and profit from them. It will also discuss the corrupt relationship between governments and the biggest weapons companies, and the illegality of most weapons deals.

War Propaganda, Following on from the earlier presentation about exaggerated threats, this presentation is about other forms of war propaganda. This covers a wide range of strategies. At the simplest level, it involves governments and the media lying to us about events overseas, and about the motives for war. At a deeper level, it involves years of conditioning to manipulate our understanding of patriotism and militarism.

Zionism in Ukraine. With David Miller

We have all seen footage of Nazi sympathisers in torchlight procession and of the Nazi Azov Battalion (now integrated into the Ukraine armed forces), but what role does the far right play in Ukrainian nationalism? ResistanceTV will take a look at its history from the early Twentieth Century until now. We will particularly assess its activities in relation to anti-Semitism. The history of Zionism in Ukraine is also long, but how has it interacted with nationalism in Ukraine? And what is its role in the current conflict with Russia?

Elephant in the room | Exaggerated threat's

Since 1945, the US and British governments have bombarded their populations with propaganda to exaggerate threats. This includes the exaggerated threat of a communist invasion (from 1945-1989), Weapons of Mass Destruction (to justify invasions of Iraq and Syria), and terrorism (to justify the invasion of Afghanistan). Tonight's show will explain how small these threats were in reality, and look at how the media helped to exaggerate them. More detailed information, references and further reading can be found in three beginners' guides at medium.com/ElephantsInTheRoom

6) Scary 'R' Us 2: The exaggerated threat of terrorism

Prospects for Socialism in the 21st Century

Britain has been subjected to a neoliberal consensus for over 40 years. This has left 14 million people in poverty, public services used as a cash cow for corporate fat cats and foreign policy geared to the interests of the military industrial complex. But following the defeat of the Corbyn project what are the prospects for socialism in the twenty first century?

Introducing InterUnion4Equity

This week we are talking to Aysha Choudhury, Professor Jim Todd, Akic Lwaldeng and Bunja F.K Kebbeh about the inequality in trade unions. Their voices as security and cleaning staff in their workplaces, though unionised are not valued. This has to change! And perhaps IU4E is the group to do that!
