107 MPs demand government rejects £10bn rescue deal put forward by Thames Water's creditors
YOUNG communists in the Indian state of Kerala have raised around £1.2 million in distress relief funds after two devastating floods and the threat of a spike in the Covid-19 pandemic.
Members of the Democratic Youth Federation of India (DYFI), the youth organisation associated with the Communist Party of India (Marxist), initiated the Recycle Kerala campaign in May, collecting 3,000 tons of recyclable waste in the southern state.
Old newspapers, bottles and other scraps were picked up from houses across Kerala. The waste materials were sorted, segregated and sold for recycling. Some, like the bottles, were upscaled by creative members of the organisation.
