Local Party & YCL comrades joined the STUC’s annual St Andrew’s Day anti racism march in Glasgow yesterday. As the far right are on the rise, working people and the trade union movement have to identify the real culprit, capitalism, and put forward the real solution, socialism.

Labour promised working people real change last year. Rachel Reeves’ budget this year is anything but #Budget #Budget2025 The promised increase in money for public services doesn’t scratch the surface after 14 years of Tory austerity. Too much of that money will end up in the hands of privateers and financiers. There are no price controls on essentials or caps on bills, rents or mortgages. Working people will continue to suffer. Britain is a fantastically wealthy country. Rather than taxing the rich and big business to pay for these measures, Labour have protected the money hoarded by the fat cats and the City of London. Working people have to immediately step up the fight for wages and properly funded public services. We have to take back what the rich have stolen.

In his initial response to Chancellor Rachel Reeves' Budget today #Budget #Budget2026 #PMQs (26 November), Communist Party General Secretary Robert Griffiths commented: "Desperate to appease Britain's super-wealthy capitalist class and the bond markets, Chancellor Reeves has squandered an historic opportunity to invest in public services, productive industry, low-cost Green energy - and to launch a war on poverty.” “Limited steps on energy bills, ex-miners' pensions, neighbourhood healthcare centres, the two-child benefits cap, infected blood compensation, corrupt COVID contracts and family farm taxation are welcome but do not add up to the fundamental change of direction needed for working people nor enough to save this Labour government's skin.” “There is no Alternative Economic Strategy as called for by the Communist Party to build millions of council houses and flats, harness the enormous potential of solar and tidal power and create more than a million well-paid jobs backed by well-funded training programmes for young workers.” “Instead, the OBR is now downgrading its UK economic growth forecasts for the next four years.” “Nor do modest tax increases on income from wealth and property begin to reduce gross inequality across Britain and fund extra public spending without more costly borrowing charges.” “Instead of freezing personal tax thresholds until 2031, costing working people more than £35bn a year, the Chancellor could have raised corporation and windfall taxes on big business profits and the top rates of income and council tax.” “A 1% Wealth Tax on the richest 1/10th of the population would yield more than £55bn. Taxing the funds stashed illicitly by UK citizens in overseas tax havens - many of them under British jurisdiction - would raise another £65bn.” “And a 0.1% levy on financial speculation in the City of London's foreign currency and derivatives markets would wipe out the public sector fiscal deficit in less than a week!” “The Communist Party is clear we need a united working class fight back to achieve immediate gains on the cost of living crisis - and to build a mass movement for socialism in Britain.” END.
