£10,000 Big Red Appeal
We are living through exciting times. The people of Britain are stirring. Our ruling class of bankers, bosses and bureaucrats and their hangers on in politics and the media no longer have it their own way. A decade of anti war protest, years of campaigning against austerity, anger at falling wages and rising living costs have created a groundswell of resistance. Our Communist Party has played its part in the Stop the War Coalition, in the trade unions and campaigning organisations, in the Peoples Assembly Against Austerity and in sustaining the Morning Star, the daily paper of the left. We argued – almost alone on the left – that with mass action Labour could change direction and we were proved correct. Jeremy Corbyn’s new leadership has inspired hundreds of thousands to join the Labour Party. We are with them in our collective struggle to win a Labour government that will end austerity, privatisation and war. Every working class and socialist activist needs to make a sober judgement about where they can make the best contribution. For many it means a greater role in their union, campaign or in the Labour Party. For many, too it should mean joining Britain’s Communist Party – the party of working class power and liberation. The party needs thousands of new members to add strength and stability to this new movement. If not you, who? If not now, when?
‌ the party also needs money to resource its key tasks. The party is the backbone of the campaign to turn Brexit into Lexit. A progressive exit from the EU will meet the demands of millions of working people and can unite those who voted to leave with those who didn’t. Our party congress in November takes place on the cusp of big changes with Labour’s leadership decided, and the TUC and Labour conferences shaping the electoral and extra parliamentary struggles that lay ahead. The struggle for peace and solidarity will be strengthened by the participation in our congress of delegates from our Ukraine sister party while their struggle against imperialism and fascism will chime with our celebration of the 80th anniversary of the battle of Cable Street.
The Communist Party needs you. It needs you as an active member in the fight to open the way to socialism, liberation and working class political power. The party – which is funded only by its members and supporters – needs money too. Give what you can.
