1/6 Image
Ten years of austerity cuts instead of massive investment in public services and productive industry has hugely increased the human and financial toll of the Covid crisis.

Now the economic recession which began early this year is going to bite deeper at a time when unemployment and government debt are already rocketing as a result of the pandemic.

In a statement Friday morning, the CP urged, “socialists and the Labour-affiliated trade unions must unite in solidarity with Corbyn, demand his reinstatement and fight to reverse the drive to marginalise the left in the Labour Party.” (2/5)
Says Communist Party general secretary Robert Griffiths, “Our members will be explaining that a stronger Communist Party - which is now rapidly growing in membership and locality - is crucial to the fight-back. " (3/5)

The Communist Party has released the following statement about the suspension of Jeremy Corbyn from the Labour Party today (October 30 2020):
The suspension of Jeremy Corbyn from the Labour Party on the flimsiest of pretexts is not only a baseless attack on a longstanding fighter in words and deeds against all forms of racism, including anti-Semitism.
It is also the latest step in a longer and bigger drive to marginalise socialists and left-wing ideas in the Labour Party and the wider labour movement.

JEREMY CORBYN’S suspension from @UKLabour is a declaration of war by the leadership against all socialists.

It throws down the gauntlet to the entire left to rally in defence of the leader who brought socialism back as a major force in British politics.
morningstaronline.co.uk/article/e/jere…
As a lawyer, @Keir_Starmer is well aware that this is a travesty of justice more akin to the proceedings of a witch hunt than any semblance of due process.
He does not care, because the decision to suspend his predecessor is not motivated by Corbyn’s response to the EHRC’s report. It rests on the calculation that the new leadership is now strong enough to expunge the left’s influence from the party altogether.
