Immigration, class and nation
The massive increase in immigration – both legal and illegal – has formed a constant background to events in Britain for over two decades. This is no accident.

A snapshot of the condition of our country shows the scale of the problem facing us and also suggests a path to return Britain to progress…

The way forward for Britain and its people is in working class action. Now is the time to take control.
These are critical times for the working class and for Britain. Our fight is here, and no election changes that.
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.
Reject the election trap, prepare for struggle!
Workers looking for change will not find it from the general election. Whatever the result, the tasks for our class will be the same.
Workers are the only force for progress: accept that challenge and prepare to fight for it.
Come and discuss. Email info@cpbml.org.uk for an invitation.

A short twelve months ago NHS workers and their unions were deep in preparation for what everyone knew was going to be a major battle on that most central of issues, pay and conditions.

We received this letter from a Workers reader in east London about a recent shopping trip. Although it was a novel experience, this may be happening around Britain more often than we realise. The challenge is how not let this go to waste – to act and not just grumble.
The resurgence in working class struggle – after years of relative quiet – is proof that progress is possible.
Control is the power of directing what happens in a country, or an industry. We say workers must take control, but that has quite a different meaning for workers than for capitalists…

In many ways the situation facing workers in Britain is as dire as it has been at any time since the Second World War. But there is a shining light: the army of the working class is on the move.
When a strike takes place, when workers withdraw their labour, they and their employers are confronted with the truth: workers are essential to capitalism.
Another month, another prime minister. And yet underneath nothing has changed at all. British capitalism, the oldest in the world and arguably the most cunning, is out of ideas and out of time.
Democracy literally means “rule by the people”. That’s not what our current parliamentary democracy does. It’s not fit for purpose and it does not represent the people of Britain…
