For Democratic Revolution

Socialism and democracy are one and indivisible. In socialism the people in a well-organised administration , will be the direct masters over the process of production. The workers under capitalist democracy may choose their masters, but they are not themselves masters. The Socialist Party is democratic, with its structure and practices visible and accessible to all members.Our tactics in the struggle for radical democratic change reflect our ultimate goal of a society. Socialists participate in the electoral process to present the socialist alternative. The building of socialism requires widespread understanding and participation, and will not be achieved by an elite working “on behalf of” the people. The Socialist Party of Great Britain is frequently derided for its argument that we regard Parliament as a means to revolutionise the minds.

Socialism can only succeed as a social movement and that the Socialist idea and workers organised and united into a class party must go together. The Socialist Party is neither legalists or insurrectionist. We do not seek the method of force , neither do we exclude it, if the necessity arises. Our methods calls not for rebellion but revolution.

Socialism is not government ownership, a welfare state, or an all-encompassing  bureaucracy. Socialism is a new social and economic order in which workers and consumers control production and community residents control their neighborhoods. The production of society is used for the benefit of all humanity, not for the private profit of a few. Socialism produces a sustainable and constantly renewing future by not plundering the Earth. A socialist society carefully plans its way of life and technology to be a harmonious part of our natural environment. The clean up of the polluted environment will be among the first tasks of a socialist society.

In a socialist system the people collectively own and democratically control the means of production and distribution. Planning takes place at the local, district, regional, and global levels

 The capitalist system forces workers to sell their abilities and skills to the few who own the workplaces, profit from these workers’ labour, and use the government to maintain their privileged position. People across the world need to cast off the systems which oppress them, and build a new world fit for all humanity. Democratic revolutions are needed to dissolve the power now exercised by the few who control great wealth and the government.
