Across Britain, ordinary people have been absorbing the news that the infamous child sex-trafficker Jeffrey Epstein was deeply connected with the British monarchy, high-ranking figures in the governing Labour Party, and British billionaires like Richard Branson.
People are drawing the correct conclusions that the ruling regime is depraved, violent, filthy rich, and intimately linked through corruption – and they are rightly filled with revulsion.
This is why the Revolutionary Communist Party is campaigning and launching a recruitment drive to ‘wipe out the Epstein class’. And this slogan is already striking a nerve across Britain.
A simple video of one of the first posters to be put up has garnered millions of views, tens of thousands of likes, and thousands of comments, such as “I’ll bring the flame thrower brothers” and “Who needs a battle buddy? I have extra ammo”.

Revolution against the Epstein regime!
Across the world, a most unlikely source has been exposing the Epstein regime in the most humorous of ways: the Iranian government and its propagandists.
Following the US-Israeli war on Iran, a handful of content creators have spread viral AI-generated, Lego-themed videos, which have been viewed over 900 million times in 50 days, and are reaching people who don’t usually follow the news.
So worried have the ruling class by these videos that YouTube has desperately tried to censor them.

The videos connect the war on Iran to the Epstein class at home; to spiralling inflation, and the incompetency of the Trump administration; to police brutality, and the historic crimes of US imperialism – all in sharable short-form videos.
We decided to highlight this by using a screenshot from one of these videos on the latest front cover of The Communist – and the response from the British public has been electric.

In Birmingham, comrades selling The Communist in the city centre reported members of the public saying “I recognise the image, you are doing fantastic work here”, whilst others “gave us fist bumps after looking at the paper”. One person, awestruck, proclaimed: “Oh that’s a powerful image”.
Similarly, in Woolwich in South East London, the comrades reported of how someone who is now interested in joining the RCP responded with joy: “Lego Trump! I’ve seen him everywhere, can I read it?”
At university campuses like Imperial College London, students responded to the call of ‘Revolution against the Epstein regime’ with smiles, and one person ran back to buy a copy after seeing it!
In Manchester, a stall organised by just two comrades in the Northern Quarter went so well, they carried on over two hours, due to the level of interest. The sold seven issues of the paper, two pamphlets, one Classics of Marxism book, and a badge!
One of our most successful stalls this past weekend was in Sheffield, where the comrades sold 30 copies. The comrades report that:
“there is extremely palpable anger directed at the crisis-ridden state of the world. Even many of the usually reactionary rowdy football fans came over to talk about politics, even buying papers after long chats!”
This reflects the real, bubbling mood of rage amongst workers and youth in Britain.
Wipe out the Epstein class!
We have received thousands of hits to our website, on articles related to Epstein and Prince Andrew. Meanwhile, applications to join the party are starting to stream in, based on the few posters that we have already put up.
An application from Brighton shared: “I am appalled at the state of the world, specifically with the release of the Epstein files, the exposure of the vileness that lies within the capitalistic elite, the destruction of my homeland, Iran, done under false intentions of ‘aid’…”
This reveals something profound about how people are really feeling about the state of the world, and our current ruling class.
The usual culture-war nonsense used to distract people is being superseded by a yearning for class-war politics. The Epstein class live on another planet. They get away with abuse, murder, and genocide, and live in luxury while millions suffer.
As a passer-by in East London expressed, “Trump is the face of capitalism, and all of the events happening are exposing the ruling classes.”
This summer-long campaign, however, is only getting started. We are gearing up to reach hundreds of radicalised workers and young people, and welcome them into our ranks.
This weekend, members of the RCP across the country converge on London for our Third Congress. This all-party event will help us clarify the perspectives and arguments that we need to connect the fight against the warmongering Epstein class with a programme of socialist revolution.
We urgently need to build an army of trained and disciplined class fighters – who can agitate, educate and organise the working class into a force which can topple this system. We call upon our readers to support us in this campaign:
- If you are not already organised, then register your interest to join the RCP today.
- If you are one of the thousands of regular readers of communist.red, then support our work by subscribing to The Communist – the voice of the RCP.
- Lastly, while the billionaires gear up for class war, you can fund the revolutionary struggle, by donating to the RCP’s war chest, and helping us reach our target of raising £150,000 for the Third Congress.
We look forward to receiving further reports from party branches, and we look forward to welcoming many future members into our ranks!
