Labour in Crisis

November 17, 2020 by Web Editor

Six months ago, Sir Keir Starmer won the Labour leadership election on a promise to maintain Corbyn’s radical policies and unify the party. Since then…* a leaked secret report has exposed wilful sabotage by racist party officials;* Corbyn’s sole ally in the shadow cabinet has been sacked;* Corbyn himself has been suspended from membership of the party;* The party has been “swamped” by mass … [Read more...]

WHY I AM STANDING FOR THE NEC

July 27, 2020 by Roger Silverman

by Roger Silverman As an NEC member, I would campaign vigorously to restore the supremacy of party conference, uphold the democratic right of open selection of candidates for office, end arbitrary suspensions, and put forward radical socialist policies along the lines of the 2019 election manifesto. I was born into a Labour family and have been a lifelong party activist. My father was a … [Read more...]

Britain: The Pandemic, the Working Class and the Left

April 1, 2020 by Web Editor

By Andrew Burgin The coronavirus pandemic is accelerating across the world. Every few days the scope and scale of the disease is increasing. Hundreds of thousands of people are being infected, many thousands have already died and many tens of thousands will die.

Editorial: On the Brink Spring 2020

February 18, 2020 by Roger Silverman

This is no time for glib slogans. December’s election result is a serious setback. It clears the way for the most brutal Tory attacks yet seen on our living standards and our democratic rights, destroying the last remaining vestiges of the welfare state and plunging into despair a generation of youth desperate for the chance of a future. It also puts at risk the advances made in the last four … [Read more...]

UK Election 2019

December 21, 2019 by Eddie Doveton Leave a Comment

There will be much debate and questioning in its aftermath.  The enemies of socialism will do their best to use the election result to try and destroy the socialist message. Did Labour promise too much? Britain is the sixth richest country in the world. The Attlee government could afford to introduce and fund the NHS directly … [Read more...]

The 2019 Labour Party Conference – a brief report

October 8, 2019 by Roger Silverman

Roger Silverman It won’t surprise many of us to learn that the recent Labour Party conference was nothing remotely like the press and media reports. For them, it was a disaster: rival factions were tearing the party to pieces over Brexit and anti-semitism, and Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership was finished. This was not the conference I attended, as delegate from my constituency party. The first … [Read more...]

The Labour Left Alliance is a network of national and local left groups and individuals, who recognise the vacuum within the Left in the Labour Party and who want to organise democratically and transparently in order to: Support Corbyn (and by extension, his supporters) against attacks by … [Read more...]

Labour and Britain’s Crisis

September 15, 2019 by Roger Silverman

Beneath the immediate crisis over whether, when and how Britain is to leave the European Union lies a deeper trend: the chronic decline and death agony of British capitalism. Where once it was the “workshop of the world”, today it is losing its last remnants of productive industry, most of them by now assembly plants owned by Japanese, Indian and other foreign companies. Where once it ruled “an … [Read more...]
