Ukraine

A difference between Kiev and London

In a recent post at Socialist Unity, John Wight tried to suggest that the 2011 street violence, arson and looting in the UK and the 2014 political uprising in Ukraine are simply two examples of “people riot[ing].”

I dunno, John. One difference is that during the riots in London and other British cities, Prime Minister Cameron did not abandon 10 Downing Street and flee to a pro-Tory region of the country.

Update: And here’s an example of Socialist Unity’s highly selective concern when it comes to antisemitism.
