I'm looking for good papers and resources to subscribe to, I used to subscribe to a leftist newspaper but I haven't for awhile. What are some good papers that cover international worker struggles and leftist ideas? This may be a good resource for others looking for news.
Thanks,

Resistance (http://www.afed.org.uk/res/) and Catalyst (http://www.solidarityfederation.org.uk/catalyst) are quite good for worker struggles.

New Republic? Dissent?
I do not think of these as bastions of the left. More like hokey revisionist pro-war/Israel liberal -left tripe.

Resistance doesn't have nearly enough in it, imo. Still okay though.
I like Freedom and The Commune, personally:

http://thecommune.co.uk/
Black Flag and Organise! are also good, but only come out four times a year.

What, you mean an actual newspaper or just any internet site or blog? If you're in the UK, obviously the Morning Star (http://www.morningstaronline.co.uk/index.php).

What about the Humanist published by the French Communist Party?

If I may shill for my organization, Socialist Action has an excellent monthly newspaper, and a blog that gets updated frequently. www.socialistaction.org
On a less obviously biased level, the Workers Party in America has a thrice-weekly newspaper called Working People's Advocate that I find is an invaluable resource; they frequently cover important nat'l and int'l politics that the other communist papers miss. If you go to www.workers-party.com you'll be able to download the new issue.

Well, I had to promote my organisation somehow :lol:
Although for a free monthly worker struggles paper, I think Resistance is pretty good.

Liberation is a paper published by the PSL and is pretty informative.

If you want union and struggle news, I suggest The Socialist (http://socialistparty.org.uk/main/subscribe) (for the UK) or Justice (http://socialistalternative.org/justice/) (USA). If you want somewhat more backgrounds, theory and a place of discussions and debate among leftists, I suggest the Weekly Worker (http://cpgb.org.uk/) (UK, but also many commentary on international issues).

For the US, here are some newspapers or magazines I do subscribe to, have subscribed to, or am meaning to renew:
Monthly Review
Labor Notes
Z Magazine
Dollars & Sense
The Nation
Left Turn
Synthesis & Regeneration
In These Times
From the partisan press:
International Socialist Review
Against the Current
Socialist Action
Workers World
Liberation
Justice
Socialist Appeal
Both lists are in roughly declining order of how strongly I'd recommend them.

Fight back news is really good, Liberation is also good although sometimes tend to be a bit bleeding heart liberal. A good part of Liberation is they cover shit that other ORGs and Parties don't and that makes it stand out. Plus I know a good handful of the writers :thumbup1:
