Join the Communist Party
Below is a form to contact our organisation, the Communist Party of Great Britain. We are happy to deal with any questions and enquiries about our organisation, but, of course, we also want you to think about not simply being curious about the CPGB. We want you to seriously considering committing to it as a member, to join us. And before you do, we also want you to be absolutely clear about what that membership would entail.
First, you should read 'Frequently Asked Questions' in this section. In this, we try to anticipate the grey areas comrades may have about our organisation; this is based on our experience of what new potential recruits most often bring up with us. We hope it helps you get a clearer idea of who we are, what we do and why.
Membership is open to any comrade who:
- Accepts the CPGB’s draft programme as the basis for the united action of the organisation.
- Participates as a candidate member in the work of the party, under the collective discipline of the relevant party committee or individual, for a minimum of six months.
- During that period, participates in a study - along with other CPGB comrades - of our Draft programme, as a basic introduction to the politics and culture of our group.
- Pays regular dues at an agreed level.
Of course, we don’t have a ‘one size fits all’ approach to support or our organisation. Comrades show their commitment at all sorts of different levels and in different ways - as supporters, as sympathisers, as candidate or full members. All play valuable roles and the practical support they can give is valued tremendously.
When you send us your message, remember to include other details you might think are relevant - for example, contact telephone numbers and convenient times to call, political background and experience, particular areas of expertise/interest, etc.
We look forward to hearing from you, comrade!
