I was interviewed by Sabrina Weiss for the Swiss magazine, Republik, about my recent shift from civil disobedience to community assemblies. The original article was published in German on their website. An English translation is shared below.

Hey revolutionaries, Robin here (Roger’s sidekick). Since launching this website and newsletter for Roger, we’ve achieved some amazing things — around **5,000 subscribers** (that’s you, hi!) and roughly **£2,600 a month in regular donations**. That’s enough for Roger to live on and to help support an assistant. It’s incredible, and we’re deeply grateful. At the same time, about **one in five subscribers** have dropped off the newsletter since it began — most often because of simple email overload. So I wanted to briefly explain a change we’re making, and how you can choose what you receive from us. Over the past year, our writing and organising have grown fast. We’ve hosted two online conventions with Rev21, released three books, and continued Roger’s regular output of essays, analysis, podcasts, transcripts, and urgent calls to action. For some of you, that’s exactly what you signed up for. For others — especially newer subscribers — it may simply be too much. Rather than guessing, we’re changing the structure so **you’re in control**. ### From now on, we’ll be sending three types of emails: **1. Essays & Analysis (1–2 times a week)** Long-form writing, political analysis, transcripts, and reflections on climate breakdown, democracy, and nonviolent resistance. **2. Monthly Digest (once a month)** A calmer, low-frequency summary: our best writing, key updates, and what’s coming next. This is the best option if you want to stay connected without regular emails. **3. Actions & Urgent Calls (occasional)** Time-sensitive fundraisers, assemblies, events, and moments where action really matters. You can subscribe to one, two, all three — or just the monthly digest. ### How to manage your settings You can update your preferences at any time here. Manage your emails If our emails aren’t right for you anymore, you can also unsubscribe completely — no hard feelings at all. We’re grateful you’ve been part of this community for however long you’ve walked with us. On the other hand, if your loving all this work, please consider becoming a regular donor. You'll get books and our eternal gratitude! Change Plan Our aim with this change is simple: **less overwhelm, more choice, and clearer communication** , while still being honest about the scale of the crisis we’re in. Thank you for being here. With love and rage, Robin Me and Roger out for a walk!

Ordinary people can run society — but only if we build the structures to let them.

Capitalism is choosing collapse. This is not failure — it is the death wish made systemic.

The initial surge of Your Party support is historic.

Dear blog friends, The reality we’ve been avoiding is still here, but now I've focused my mind on dissecting it. The result is my new book, **_Suicide: The Political and Legal Implications of Creating Endless Mass Death_** , which will be released on **28 January**. This book was written from a prison cell and features a foreword by one of my visitors, the Pulitzer Prize winner Chris Hedges. Pre-Order Suicide In July 2024, I was dragged from a British courtroom for refusing to stay silent about the climate crisis. For conspiracy to cause a public nuisance, I was sentenced to five years in prison — the harshest sentence ever given in the UK for nonviolent civil disobedience. The case made headlines and drew international condemnation. This book is, in part, a response to that moment. Part conventional memoir, part manifesto, it’s an attempt to think clearly and honestly about what it means when a society knowingly creates mass death, and then uses its legal and political systems to punish those who tell the truth about it. Drawing on court cases, climate science, political theory, and lived experience inside the British legal system, the book examines the moral and legal failures of a society sleepwalking into catastrophe. It asks what happens when “law and order” become tools for denial, and when justice is turned against those trying to prevent harm. In the age of climate collapse, telling the truth has increasingly been treated as a criminal act. This book looks directly at that reality. Please preorder **_Suicide_** on our new Rev21 shop, alongside my other books. If you are a _Revolutionary_ donor to this blog, you can sign up to receive your copies of all my latest books here. Thanks, Roger Pre-Order My New Book

These presents won’t save the world. But they might help you stop lying to yourself about how it actually changes.

I’m free, organising again, and asking for support to build serious structures at speed. This is what I’m working on, and why it matters now.

Liberal culture cannot say the word “death,” even as billions face it. Euphemism has become a form of violence — and the first step to resisting collapse is naming reality without flinching.

If the liberal elite won’t take the risks their own warnings demand, the world will remain asleep — and the task of awakening it falls to the small minority willing to act.

COP tramples God, banishes spirit, and pretends it is doing good. We face 2°C locked in and a future without end.

A billion lives are on the line, yet COP answers with fanciful roadmaps, false promises, and the polite performances of mundane evil.

Systemic change requires people power

A comprehensive look at Mastodon, Bluesky, and the growing ecosystem of open, interoperable social networks.

Civil resistance won’t succeed on material facts alone — faith, suffering, and humility might hold the key to revolution.

From Your Party to our movement.

Civil resistance won’t succeed on material facts alone — faith, suffering, and humility might hold the key to revolution.

True nonviolence requires empathic action toward opponents. A movement that shows compassion in the face of grief will win far more than headlines.

Suffering isn’t just pain—it’s the raw fuel that sparks both personal and collective revolution.

I’m out of prison — let’s go deeper together and restart the Spirit of Revolution.

Once again, protestors across the UK are being arrested en masse for political protest. Their right to do is profoundly British – and must be protected

Randomly selecting people to rule would be a hell of a lot better than holding elections

What if emotion isn’t the enemy of reason, but the very force that makes revolution possible?

To mark Roger's freedom, we have released a new edition of his book and included a list of upcoming talks in London where you can catch up with him.
