“Labour MPs are talking mutiny over Starmer’s ties to Mandelson”

by Willem Moore in The Canary

Unnamed Labour MP: “Consistent failures by Morgan #McSweeney have damaged our media operation and left the public unaware of much of what we’ve achieved in government.

The Mandelson saga has only made things worse, and if Keir doesn’t make changes soon, the PLP will.

We’ve had enough”

Today in Labor History January 26, 1808: Soldiers took over New South Wales, Australia, during the Rum Rebellion. It was Australia’s only military coup. At the time, NSW was a British penal colony. William Bligh was governor of the territory. This was the same William Bligh who was an officer under Captain Cook when he attempted to kidnap the King of Hawai’i. He was also the same William Bligh who was overthrown in the Mutiny on the Bounty, in 1789. It is questionable why the British thought he’d do better in charge of a bunch of prisoners and unruly soldiers, than he did with a bunch of sailors. Perhaps they were just desperate. One of Bligh’s commissions was to reign in the Rum Corps, which held a monopoly on the illegal rum trade in Australia. They also controlled the sale of other commodities. Bligh started to enforce penalties for the illegal sale and importation of liquor. He also tried to provide relief to farmers, suffering from recent flooding and price-gouging by the Rum Corps, by providing provisions from the colony’s stores. The monopolists didn’t like his looting of the stores, from which they were profiting handsomely, nor his enforcement of the liquor laws. So, they arrested him and deported him to Hobart, Van Diemen’s Land. The military remained in control of NSW until 1810.

Today in Labor History January 20, 1872: Filipino soldiers staged a bloody revolt against Spanish rule known as the Cavite Mutiny. Around 200 locally recruited colonial troops and laborers rose up hoping that it would escalate into a national uprising. However, colonial government forces quickly put down the mutiny. They executed many of the participants and cracked down on the independence movement. Nevertheless, it marked the beginning of a movement that would eventually lead to the Philippine Revolution of 1896

Today in Labor History January 12, 1915: The U.S. House of Representatives rejected a proposal to require states to give women the right to vote. The first place in the world where women got the right to vote was New Jersey, in 1776. However, in 1807 this was repealed and it reverted back to white men, only. The first place to continuously give suffrage to women was Pitcairn Islands, in 1838. These were the descendants of Tahitians and Christian Fletcher and other mutineers from the HMS Bounty. The first sovereign nation to give women the right to vote was Norway, in 1913. The U.S. finally granted women the right to vote in 1920. Women won suffrage in Canada in 1917, Britain and Germany in 1918, Austria and Holland in 1919. Women could not vote in France until 1944, or in Greece until 1952, or in Switzerland until 1971, or in Saudi Arabia until 2015.

Today in Labor History December 11, 1917: Thirteen black soldiers were hanged for alleged participation in the Houston Mutiny. The cause of the mutiny, according to The Crisis Magazine, was the habitual brutality of white police officers toward black residents. The mutiny started on August 23, 1917, when a cop dragged an African American woman from her home and arrested her for drunkenness. A black soldier asked what was going on and was beaten and arrested, too. When Cpl. Charles Baltimore, an MP, found out, he went to the police station to investigate. He was beaten, too, then shot at as they chased him away. Rumors reached the military base that the cops had killed Baltimore and that a white mob was approaching. So, soldiers armed themselves and marched into town. A riot ensued in which 16 whites died, including 5 cops. 4 black soldiers also died. The army held three courts-martial in the wake of the mutiny. They found 110 African American soldiers guilty. 19 were executed in total, 13 on December 11. 63 more received life sentences in federal prison. No white civilians were brought to trial.

Today in Labor History November 21, 1910: Sailors on board Brazil's warships mutinied in what is now known as the Revolta da Chibata (Revolt of the Lash). The sailors, who were mostly Afro-Brazilian, were protesting the use of whips by white naval officers when punishing them. Nearly half of the 4,000 sailors on these ships participated in the mutiny. Several officers who attempted to resist were killed. The rebels sent a telegraph to the president, reading "We do not want the return of the chibata [lash]. They threatened to destroy the city if the President of the republic and the Minister of the Navy didn’t cede to their demands. And they fired on army forts around Guanabara Bay, and at the naval arsenal and bases on Ilha das Cobras and Villegagnon Island, as well as the presidential palace. Ultimately, the Brazilian government granted an amnesty for the mutineers and the conflict ended without further violence. However, as soon as the mutineers came ashore, the government disarmed the ships, to prevent any further mutinies, and most of the men were discharged from the navy.

Today in Labor History November 9, 1972: Mutiny on the USS Constellation. 132 sailors, mostly African-American, refused to reboard the USS Constellation, in San Diego, during the Vietnam War, in protest of racist practices by the navy. In the year leading up to the mutiny, there had been considerable antiwar organizing targeting this ship. In 1971, two anti-Vietnam War groups, the Concerned Officers Movement and San Diego Nonviolent Action organized a Constellation Vote. With 54,721 votes counted. over 82% of voters elected to keep the ship home, including 73% of the military personnel who voted. The commander-in-chief of the Pacific Fleet said "never was there such a concerted effort to entice American servicemen from their posts." In late 1971, nine of crew members publicly refused to board the ship, taking sanctuary in a local Catholic church. The Connie 9 were ultimately arrested, but were honorably discharged.

Today in Labor History November 3, 1918: The German Revolution of 1918–19 began when 40,000 sailors took over the port in Kiel, in the wake of the Wilhelmshaven mutiny, a few days earlier. In less than two weeks, it brought down the German empire, forcing all the monarchs to abdicate. They created a republic, led by the moderate Social Democrats, who vowed to implement modest reforms, including women’s suffrage and the eight-hour work day. The far-left socialists, however, wanted to create a republic led by workers’ councils. At the end of the year, violence erupted between the two groups over a dispute about sailors’ pay, killing 67. This led to the Communist Spartacist Uprising, led by Karl Liebknecht and Rosa Luxemburg, and the Bavarian Soviet. The Social Democrats enlisted the Freikorps to help them suppress the uprisings against its authority, resulting in another 200 deaths. The Freikorps was composed of right-wing veterans of World War One, many of whom went on to become members of the Nazi Party.

FYI
Wilhelmshaven has a couple of monuments and information points spread over the city to remind everyone of the role the solders and workers had in the revolution 1918 / 1919.

Today in Labor History October 29, 1918: Wilhelmshaven sailors’ mutiny in Germany. Soldiers and workers brought public and military institutions under their control. They demanded the release of the imprisoned, an end to World War I, and the improvement of food provisions. By November 4, Kiel was firmly in the hands of 40,000 rebellious sailors, soldiers and workers, as was Wilhelmshaven two days later. Workers across Germany elected workers' and soldiers' councils modeled after the Soviets of the Russian Revolution of 1917 and took over military and civil powers in many cities. These events triggered the German Revolution of 1918-1919, which ended the German empire and established the Weimar Republic.
