No More Lies

For a REAL public inquiry into war with Iraq
Build the socialist alternative to New Labour

ONCE AGAIN lapdog Tony is following behind his master Bush. Having said last week that there was no need for an inquiry into weapons of mass destruction (WMD), Tony Blair is now setting one up.

It's clear that Blair is planning another whitewash - blaming the spooks this time rather than the BBC. But we don't want a Hutton Mark 2. We want a real investigation - not a cover-up by establishment judges, civil servants and politicians.

We can't trust them to look at the real reasons why more than 10,000 Iraqi civilians have been slaughtered; why more than Ł5 billion of our money has been spent on a bloody war and occupation rather than the services we need.

We want a real inquiry, carried out by elected representatives of ordinary people, including trade unions and community groups.

We've had enough of Blair's lies and deception. He lied about WMD, he lied about introducing top-up fees and he lied about public services.

The war in Iraq was about oil, profits, power and prestige. At home and abroad Blair and New Labour are in the pockets of big business. It's time to fight back.

Join us and help build a new mass party of ordinary working people to challenge the profit-seeking warmongers of New Labour and the rest.

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.

The Socialist Party's material is more vital than ever, so we can continue to report from workers who are fighting for better health and safety measures, against layoffs, for adequate staffing levels, etc.
When the health crisis subsides, we must be ready for the stormy events ahead and the need to arm workers' movements with a socialist programme - one which puts the health and needs of humanity before the profits of a few.

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.
