US military action against Venezuela should be universally condemned as a violation of sovereignty. This highlights once again the role of Britain in NATO, and the presence of US bases here. They pose a threat to our sovereignty.
May Day 2026: For British independence, for peace
Friday 1 May, 7.30pm
Bertrand Russell Room, Conway Hall, Red Lion Square, London WC1R 4RL
On May Day we take stock of Britain and the world.
The ruling class and the government use wars overseas to divert from their attack against the British working class, foremost their plan to rejoin the EU. Reject their plan and join us in rebuilding an independent Britain.
The British working class can act as force for peace by calling for an end to foreign adventures and interference by our government. We must use our resources for our many needs here in Britain. The essential and urgent task for workers is to rebuild and maintain an independent industrial base – including defence.
Come to celebrate May Day and join the discussion.
All welcome. Free Entry.
Workers of all lands, unite!
Fight for independence!
No to war!

Obsession with the appalling events in Palestine is to the detriment of workers here in Britain.
In a world where rival imperialisms and globalist corporations seek to cement their power, a strong nation state is a precondition of independence. Yet some seem confused about what being British entails…
A new book takes you from Britain to many other countries, notably Cuba, where the author helped organise the supply of medical aid to the blockaded country…
Britain’s economy: we need a new direction!
Wednesday 4 February 2026, 7.30 pm
Bertrand Russell Room, Conway Hall, Red Lion Square, London WC1R 4RL
Finance must become the servant of productive industry for the country and not an end in itself.
British workers have two choices: continue as we are, or strike out in a new direction.
Come and discuss our new pamphlet and the ideas it sets out. All welcome. Free entry.

The media in Britain seem obsessed by the politics and political thought of the USA, a trend shared by too many. It’s an unhealthy obsession and a deliberate distraction from our pressing needs.
What does it mean to be British?
The ruling class continues to denigrate the referendum votes for the unity of Britain in 2014 and for exit from the EU in 2016. Their distaste for British workers exercising their political power is evident, even in such a small thing as defiantly flying flags.
To be British is simple – you live and work here, nowhere else. But the existence of an independent nation can’t be taken for granted. And it doesn’t matter if it’s the EU or USA trying to dominate our lives: both should be opposed.

In 1787 six striking weavers from the Calton area of Glasgow were killed and many more injured. The annual commemoration of their watershed struggle is building towards the 240th anniversary in 2027.
Keir Starmer and his government do not defend Britain. They do not act in our interests but cynically pretend that they do…
The sight of parliamentarians in front of the Union Jack should fool no one. Working class nationalism, British independence and security of our borders are anathema to the majority in Parliament. They would prefer to stand in front of the EU flag.
Britain truly became united not because of an act of parliament or a monarch’s ambition. It became one with the rise of the working class and working class culture…
Our ruling class has a track record of not protecting Britain’s national interest. One typical episode occurred at the end of the Second World War…
The big question raised by the grooming gangs is not that some men, especially in tightly knit communities, might seek to take advantage. It is how on earth such abuse went on for decades.
Britain has been the preferred hunting ground for US multinationals buying up businesses abroad, leading to a serious loss of independence.
British Workers: Strength in Unity
Unity between workers is our main strength – we have a common class interest and the ability to make progress when we act together.
But everywhere that unity is under threat. At work, by employers who constantly exploit weakness and lack of cohesion. And across Britain, by a government and ruling class who want to break Britain up into regions and tie us to the USA or again to the EU.

The Bolsheviks called for “Peace, Land and Bread” in 1917 at a time of crisis and transition in Russia. They aimed to unite a country weary of a war for rulers they despised and for aims they did not share.
Communists aim to unite workers, those who live by selling their labour power.
There is capital – plenty of it – that could be used for investment here in Britain but instead countless billions of pounds are invested overseas. Meanwhile employment and living standards here suffer…

Details of the Budget were widely trailed beforehand. But behind the headlines and promises there is much that should concern workers.

Political statement from the Communist Party of Britain Marxist-Leninist, 20th Congress, London, June 2024.
Escalating military action in the Middle East rightly worries British workers. But nothing good comes from involving Britain in these conflicts.
The new government rules out rejoining the EU, but acts as if it wants to adopt by stealth all those things British workers rejected in 2016 – above all a return to free movement of labour, open borders.

The way forward for Britain and its people is in working class action. Now is the time to take control.
Whatever result we wake up to, the tasks for our class will still be the same. Workers have nothing to gain from a change of party in government.
On foreign matters, as on domestic matters, there is no free choice. Labour and Conservative both claim to be more pro-NATO, more pro-war, than the other…
