Starmer’s Labour have promised to tackle Britain’s housing crisis by delivering 1.5 million homes in five years. But relying on the crisis-ridden private construction sector offers no way forward. We need a socialist housing programme!
This Remembrance Day, the communists will honour those whose lives have been scandalously sacrificed in the interests of imperialism, by redoubling our efforts to end this capitalist nightmare once and for all. Workers of the world, unite!

In his latest bid to become even more hated by young people, Starmer has hiked tuition fees to a record level. Labour is drowning students in debt to protect universities’ bottom-lines. We say: Down with this austerity government! Free education for all!
Kemi Badenoch has become the latest Tory leader, taking over a dysfunctional and degenerate Conservative Party that is lurching ever-further to the right. This is a recipe for intensifying political instability and sharpening class struggle.
