Introducing Marxism
Want a real change in society?
Let’s talk about it… and get on with the job!

People want a lot more out of life than the current system offers us. All round us, there’s political corruption, massive pay-outs for “fat cat” businessmen (and pay cuts for workers), attacks on public services, industrial closures, super-exploitation of immigrant workers, increasing job loss and insecurity, a huge & widening poverty gap, racism, militarism & war.

But all we’re offered by the “main political parties” is a choice of who’d run that system best. None of them even try to represent working people. They just tell us over and over that “the free market” – Capitalism – is all that there is. So, New Labour has lost ordinary working people’s support.
But simply rejecting New Labour isn’t enough. We need to fight for a system based on people not profits, need not greed, the millions of people - not the millionaires…
We’re talking about Socialism, which is vilified, lied about and attacked by the small but powerful class who benefit from things staying as they are.
You might have been in the Labour Party & trade unions for years. You might be a young person, quite new to politics. Whoever you are, if you really want to fight the injustices, exploitation and world violence of capitalism, we’d really like to talk with you.
The Communist Party and the Young Communist League are growing organisations, made up of committed activists – activists who constantly try to understand more deeply why things are the way they are, and how working people can move from protest to actually achieving real change.
Then we get on with the job.
Socialism, the Party and YCL are based on the ideas of Marxism. We’d like to know what you think about these ideas. We run sessions that we call INTRODUCING MARXISM, where we discuss all sorts of things – such as…
o The nature of the current system
o Why class society exists
o How we understand the world
o How we organise for real change
