Join the revolution


We live in a world dominated by capitalism, a system which allows a small minority of capitalists to oppress and exploit the great majority of humankind.  It is capitalism that brings about great inequalities in living standards with more poor people now in the world than ever before. Capitalism steals the resources of less developed countries and causes the destruction  of our natural environment.  Either we get rid of this outmoded and  decrepit system or it will devastate humanity.

The only viable way forward is revolutionary struggle to achieve socialism, a classless and stateless society on a world scale where people do not oppress and exploit each other and where we live in harmony with our natural environment.  To create a socialist world it is necessary to overthrow the rule of capitalism and this can be done only through revolution.  The working class and other oppressed people must depose the capitalist ruling class and establish socialism, a system of real, popular democracy that sets about the reconstruction of society.  New technology is making it possible to build a new world, a world in which the robots do the “work” and people set about the task of culturally and socially enriching their lives.

 This can happen only if you join with us in the struggle against capitalism. The hour is late. Join us now!

The importance of the Socialist Party present strength counts for little. More important than our membership and our vote is the integrity and the soul of our party as an effective instrument for the coming social reconstruction. It is vital that our party remains as a socialist party in the true meaning of the term. Faithful to its object, its structure, and its principles. Not a party of mere patchwork reform but as a militant party, firmly rooted in the working class movement, and operating on a programme of education and organisation  in the political struggle.

Everything is possible now.
