What to do now in Germany? - A discussion with Comrades Philipp and Toralf

Join Mansa as she sits down with Comrade Philipp from our German group, Spartakist-Arbeiterpartei Deutschlands (SpAD), and supporter Toralf Endruweit, to discuss the political dynamics behind the recent German elections. Though the centre held, the AfD emerged as the clear victor in terms of doubling its support. Comrades explain what is fuelling this, why the left has it all upside down with Die Linke, and the tasks facing communists and the working class. Toralf shares his experience running as a candidate in Hamburg under the ticket of the Maoist MLPD, and the sentiment amongst workers regarding the left.See the latest issue of Spartakist, the paper of the SpAD here: https://iclfi.org/pubs/spk/228/umbruchToralf's campaign: https://iclfi.org/pubs/spk/228/bundestag-a On the Ukraine war: https://iclfi.org/spartacist/de/33/ukraine; https://iclfi.org/pubs/spk/228/ukraine-kriegThe crisis of Germany's Liberal Order: A communist response, https://iclfi.org/spartacist/de/33/antwort  And lastly, the debate with the MLPD and RCIT on the class character of China (in German) here: https://iclfi.org/deu/events/2025-china Subscribe to the SpAD's paper here: https://iclfi.org/deu Follow SpAD on X and Insta @spartakist_iklGet in touch!sparttalk.org | Like the episode and subscribe to the show wherever you get your podcasts, and follow us on X @SpartacistICL, YouTube @Spartacist, or follow Mansa on Insta @punjabibolshevik
