We demand a general election now!

After a day in which Theresa May and the Tories showed they are unable to govern, members of London Socialist Party went to Parliament to demand a general election.

We wore yellow vests in solidarity with the 'gilet jaune' protesters in France.

Others called off their protests (after Theresa May called off the vote on her Brexit deal in parliament) but now is not a time to step back.

Jeremy Corbyn and the trade union leaders should call a massive demonstration - we need a mass movement on the streets, in our workplaces and among young people!

Finance appeal

The coronavirus crisis has laid bare the class character of society in numerous ways. It is making clear to many that it is the working class that keeps society running, not the CEOs of major corporations.

The results of austerity have been graphically demonstrated as public services strain to cope with the crisis.

The government has now ripped up its 'austerity' mantra and turned to policies that not long ago were denounced as socialist. But after the corona crisis, it will try to make the working class pay for it, by trying to claw back what has been given.

Inevitably, during the crisis we have not been able to sell the Socialist and raise funds in the ways we normally would.

We therefore urgently appeal to all our viewers to click here to donate to our Fighting Fund.
