Career
Molyneux was a lecturer at the School of Art, Design and Media, University of Portsmouth, from 1992. During his time in Portsmouth he organised a number of demonstrations, including getting 12 coaches of people to the 2003 demonstration against the Iraq War, in London. In January 2009 he was arrested for organising a peace rally of 400 people against the Israeli attacks on Gaza.
He is noted for writing a bulletin headed "Democracy in the SWP", which argued that, though the SWP is democratic, it needs to be more so, prompting the Communist Party of Great Britain to call him a "loyal rebel".
In 2006 he set up a blog where he "writes mainly about Marxist theory and art". His book The point is to change it! was included in a display at the Tate Liverpool’s exhibition Art turning Left (2013) showing the role that art plays in changing society.
