I am shocked and saddened to hear of John Molyneux’s sudden passing. 

John was the driving force in establising the Global Ecosocialist Network, which brings together ecosocialists from around the world, many from different political traditions, in a genuine and constructive collaboration. We heard the news just ahead of the GEN Steering Committee meeting overnight. 

Although I didn’t get the chance to meet John in the flesh, I could see from working with him, his regular posts and his general approach that he was an activist-intellectual until the end. He had recently published a book on Art and just published another edition of Irish Marxist Review.

My deepest condolences to John’s partner, Mary, and to all his far-flung family and comrades. Sending you all solidarity and strength in this difficult time.
