Our Impossiblism “Impossiblism” is basically the view that a socialist party should only seek support on the basis of socialism and the abolition of the wages system and not possess any programme of immediate or transitional demands. It is the view that socialism can only arise when a majority of workers want and understand it. Our task as a socialist party…

“Till the war-drum throbb’d no longer, and the battle-flags were furl’d In the Parliament of man, the Federation of the world.”  Tennyson Capitalism has again plunged the people of the world into carnage and slaughter. It is good that workers are prepared to demonstrate their international solidarity, but it should be a demonstration of real and understanding solidarity. To…

Ukraine in rubble, men engaged in butchery with women sobbing and children in tears. The mad orgy of destruction which is now convulsing unfortunate Ukraine was caused by the conflict of capitalist interests. This was anticipated, by World Socialist Movement(WSM), we just did not know exactly when or where. There was little doubt today’s horror had been permanently incubating within capitalism as it was…

The land was forcibly taken from them and a person deprived of the right to share the commons would become much…

“The Socialist Party of Great Britain…wholeheartedly supports the efforts of workers everywhere to secure democratic rights against the powers of suppression, but the history of the past decades shows the futility of war as a means of safeguarding democracy.” 1939 Inside every country, there is a far deeper division than that separating nation from nation –…

“THE SOCIALIST PARTY of Great Britain pledges itself to keep the issue clear by expounding the CLASS STRUGGLE, and whilst placing on record its abhorrence of this latest manifestation of the callous, sordid, and mercenary nature of the international capitalist class, and declaring that no interests are at stake justifying the shedding of a single drop of…
