What We Fight For

Leaflet version of the column that appears every week in the Weekly Worker.

Austerity: the left must step up (11/2011)

The capitalist crisis is not only a crisis for the ruling class: it is a crisis for society, a society in which the working class forms a clear majority. It underlines the responsibilities of the left.

Towards a European Day of Action (10/2011)

The Europe Against Austerity initiative (meeting on October 1 in London) represents a good first step in the struggle to build international resistance to the capitalist assault.

Left unity needed in anti-cuts fightback (10/2010)

If anyone had any doubts about the scale of the tasks facing us, George Osborne’s spending review onslaught on our pay, conditions and democratic rights should act as a brutal wake-up call. The phoney war is over.

General elections (4/2010)

The general election follows the deepest capitalist economic crisis the world has seen since the 1930s. Whichever party wins, the conditions and democratic rights will be under threat.

Peaceful Revolution

Members of the CPGB voted in June 2002 for a new, updated version of the Weekly Worker’s ‘What we fight for’ column. By far the most controversial change has been the ninth formulation, which contains the phrase "workers must be readied to make revolution - peacefully if we can, forcibly if we must.” Jack Conrad replies to the debate

Lenin & Kautsky

Based on three lectures by Canadian historian Lars T Lih, delivered at Communist University 2009 and first published in the Weekly Worker

Iran in revolt

We reprint a selections of articles and leaflets from 2009, when the mass demonstrations in Iran arguably started a development that culminated in the Arab Spring.
