Neoliberalism and new Labour removed the class struggle from the national question. The left must take it back, writes CP international secretary John Foster.
In their Manifesto of the Communist Party (1848), Marx and Engels wrote that the Communists have no interests separate and apart from those of the working class as a whole. This spirit will inform and inspire the 53rd congress of Britain’s Communist Party which takes place this weekend in Croydon, south London.
Members of the CP are looking forward to the 53rd congress, the highest decision and policy forming body in the democratic life of the party, which is being held over the weekend of 15/16 November. To register as a delegate, view resolutions, to nominate members to serve on the party executive and participate in pre congress discussion, go here.
