Britain is in Crisis

What can working people do?

  • 14 million people live in poverty – 4 million of them children
  • 6 million people are on hospital waiting lists
  • 1.3 million are on housing waiting lists
  • Our public services are run down and turned over to profiteers
  • People are struggling to make ends meet as prices spiral
  • 7 out of 10 small business fear closing as their costs rise –  destroying our high streets and communities

Working people are being told we need to work harder for less while every day the rich get richer and climate catastrophe gets closer.

Ruling class politicians tell us there’s no money to make life better for working people here in Britain, but there’s endless money for their proxy war with Russia (a war that risks nuclear annihilation) or to fund and arm Israel’s genocide in Gaza against the Palestinian people and war in the Middle East.

Our rulers try to distract and mislead us by blaming the crisis on migrants and by turning working people against each other, playing the race card and promoting racist and fascist political parties.

But there is an alternative for working people – Britain can do better. This capitalist crisis needs a socialist solution.

Fight for a better Britain and a better World

Our economy works for a handful of big businesses and super rich individuals who profit from the poverty of working people, the destruction of small businesses and by promoting war.

Banks, oil companies, arms companies, tech giants, supermarkets, have all seen their profits rise. The richest 10% in Britain own 49% of all wealth and control huge wealth overseas. The 1% own more than 70% of the rest of us combined..

There is huge wealth in Britain, but it is hoarded by a greedy class of super-rich, who have grown fat on the capitalist system, which puts profits before people.

The Communist Party says our future is in our own hands.

Working people and our communities can unite, organise and fight around big campaigns for alternative policies that make the rich pay, take power away from big business and fight for an economy and a society that works for working people – not billionaires.

Join the fight for a better Britain and a better world today!
