Welcome


This site contains information specific to Britain's oldest socialist party,formed in 1904, The Socialist Party of Great Britain.
   For an introduction to socialism and much more information (including introductory information) on socialism and the World Socialist Movement, of which we are a member see the World Socialist Movement website which carries information common to all the Companion Parties of Socialism.

The World Socialist Movement (or WSM) consists of people who have organised themselves democratically with one objective: to bring about a complete change in world society. We are made up of companion parties and groups in several countries.

The WSM is a global socialist movement that believes capitalism cannot meet the needs of the majority of us, the workers (or proletariat) of the world, no matter how progressive it might become in the future.

To meet these needs we contend that capitalism must be replaced by socialism.
