On May Day, the Communist Party has launched, a new website. Go to https://www.communistparty.org.uk.

The new website is a major investment, a statement of confidence for a growing party and is a result of the work of party volunteers. It is fully geared to link in with social media. It uses the latest technologies to bring campaigning news and views, ePublication subscription, international news and Marxist education to visitors. It has a powerful databased CP members and officers area, which provides campaign resources, online meeting space, Marxist education videos/discussion areas and member-only ePublications. You will also be able to manage your own party membership with an ‘update your details’ facility.

Please add the new site to your favourites.

This website will no longer be updated and will soon point directly to the new one.

COVID crisis and Labour's right-turn show urgent need for stronger Communist Party

Details

Category: Britain

'The coronavirus exposes the fundamentally anti-social nature of capitalism with its corporate greed and market anarchy', Steve Johnson told the Communist Party's political committee online on Wednesday evening April 22). 'Yet, at this very time, the pro-capitalist forces in the Labour Party are triumphant behind new leader Keir Starmer, determined to push the party back to the mushy middle-ground and marginalise the left', he warned.  Mr Johnson said the recent internal report on anti-Semitism in the Labour Party recounted a 'horror story' of abuse, sabotage and betrayal of the party and its former leader Jeremy Corbyn and his team'.   'Staff misconduct would normally be a purely internal matter', Mr Johnson remarked, 'but this was on a scale which - together with Starmer's disastrous anti-Brexit policy - fatally undermined Labour's General Election chances last December, robbing the people of Britain of a government whose values and priorities would have been fundamentally different in the current COVID-19 crisis'.

Lenin

From its formation 100 years ago, the Communist Party in Britain has based itself on the principles of Marx, Engels and Lenin. In particular, Lenin's teachings on the state, revolution, imperialism, the national question, the party and working class power have enriched Marxism and informed, educated and inspired many millions of Communists across the globe. Today, the principles of Marxism-Leninism remain the basis of our revolutionary programme Britain's Road to Socialism. The best way to honour the memory of Lenin is to join and help strengthen the Communist Party of Britain as a proud and integral contingent of the international Communist movement.

Long live Lenin! Long live socialism! Long live Communism!

"Welsh and UK governments ignored warning of pandemic shortages", say Communists

Details

Category: Britain

After an online meeting of the Welsh Communist Party's executive committee today (Sunday, April 5), Welsh CP secretary Trevor Jones issued the following statement:

"The Welsh Communist Party salutes the heroic working people of Wales who are in the front line, fighting the Covid-19 pandemic and keeping our society running. Once again, it is starkly obvious who does the essential work on which we all rely!

"Unfortunately, this work has been made all the harder and more dangerous by the failure of the Welsh and British governments to plan properly for just such a health epidemic as COVID-19.
