Shocked and saddened to hear that our comrade and friend John Molyneux has passed away. John made a huge contribution to the socialist movement over many decades, he was relentless in his activism and the writing of Marxist theory. John had a wonderful ability to cut through nonsense and explain complex theoretical ideas in a popular way. I learnt a lot from John over the years, reading his books and listening to him speak. He will be deeply missed by many. Gutted for Mary Smith and John’s family. Thank you, John, for a life that was truly well lived.
