Caution Urged Over Kansas Abortion Victory

The Marxist weekly paper The Weekly Worker, journal of a small left wing group called the Communist Party of Great Britain, publishes a lengthy analysis of the result of the Kansas vote to retain abortion rights in the State during the summer. Whilst celebration at the wide margin of victory for reproductive choice is understandable, the paper warns “Kansas may thus turn out to be yet another riveting display in the great American political circus, whose long-term impact is nil. Regardless of what voters say or do, the system will continue running downhill. That means more oppression, more loss of civil liberties, and a constitutional dictatorship that can only grow”.
