Socialisation of ALL Housing is needed to save the Working Class from Poverty, Sickness and Hunger

It is a necessity of life to be adequately housed.  Although there are people who prefer to live unconventionally, for the vast majority of people, homelessness, or the fear of homelessness, is a very real problem.

In the UK today, there are 18 million people who cannot afford the most basic of life's requirements. 18 million people live in homes which are inadequate or are not fit to be inhabited, cannot afford to heat the dwellings they struggle to pay to live in, and find it impossible to put decent and sufficient food on the table.

The tyranny of poverty has grown over the last 30 years, from 14% of the population surviving in conditions which are well below the acceptable standard of living, to a terrifying 33% (a third of the population) today being forced to live in ways which are unfit for human beings.  At the same time, deregulation, the spread of finance capitalism, and the enrichment of the Ruling Class and their accomplices, has made the UK a nation divided into haves and have nots.  The economy has doubled in size over the last 30 years, but the number of people in poverty has more than doubled.  Clearly, growth in GDP and GNP does not benefit the People as a whole, only those at the top, who achieve their wealth by exploiting the rest of us.

The Economic and Social Research Council commissioned the Poverty and Social Exclusion Report (2014), the findings of which make worrying reading for the Working Class of the UK.  28% of adults regularly skip meals so that children do not have to.  4 Million children and adults are malnourished, the overwhelming majority of whom are indigenous English, the children live with both parents and at least 1 sibling, and at least 1 parent works.  1 in 6 adults is in low paid employment, bringing in insufficient money to pay for food, heating and accommodation, being forced to cut down on the former, to pay for the latter.  Debt is rising at rates previously unheard of, with evictions and home repossessions soaring.  It is the indigenous English Working Class who are suffering most, although the indigenous Working Class of the rest of the UK are also faring badly.

5.5 million Working Class people cannot afford essential clothes, forcing them to wear clothes which one would have hoped to see consigned to a page of a Dickens' novel.  2.5 million Working Class children live in homes which are damp, putting them in danger of developing respiratory illnesses and other very dangerous forms of ill health.  1.5 million Working Class children live in homes which are not heated, adding to the dangers to health.  The indigenous English Working Class is treated like cattle by the Ruling Class, and those who collaborate with them in putting the pursuit of profit over the welfare of people.

SWPE is the Party of the English Working Class.  We have members who have come to us from the SWP, and they have told us of how that organisation is almost entirely a Bourgeois Middle Class operation, which panders to typical Middle Class liberal obsessions, and treats its few Working Class members as oddities, fit only for physical activities which the patronising Bourgeois 'class warriors' don't have the stomach for.  SWPE members don't need to read reports to tell us how hard life is for the Working Class.  We are Working Class, and we know what it is like to suffer.  Food Banks, Lack of Money, Hunger, Cold, Damp, Pathetic Wages, Loan Shark Interest Rates - these may be the stuff of theory to the hypocrites who control the SWP, fighting on issues which damage the Working Class, but for SWPE, these are parts of life which we are forced to endure thanks to the selfishness of others in our country who sneer at us for being poor, but do nothing to alleviate the problems we face.

The lack of decent and appropriate housing is the result of the Capitalist worship of Profit, and also of the Liberal obsession with Open Borders.  Capitalism requires mass unemployment to stop the People from asking for decent wages and decent working conditions.  The Capitalist is restricted and limited by Borders, which protect the indigenous population from competition in employment by people coming to the country, or taking jobs through outsourcing.  It is natural for people who despise their Working Class countrymen to have no concerns for the well being of people who will have their living standards reduced even further by unlimited immigration.  The despicable Capitalist is only obeying his lust for profit by calling for ends to immigration controls.  He may even profit by being a part of the industrial house building system, which thrives on the destruction of the countryside as easy and to build legoland housing on.  In any case, the fact of more people seeking accommodation, than the number of homes available, ensures that house prices are kept artificially high, effectively blocking the Working Class from home ownership and keeping rents at an unreasonably high rate.

Working in unison with the greedy Capitalists, the most vocal advocates of ending Sovereignty, are the ones who claim to be anti-Capitalist.  The Trotskyites and their fellow liberals demand that endless 'refugees' are allowed to come to the UK.  Sitting in their nice suburban homes, the Middle Class 'social justice warriors' are immune from the impact of immigration.  They do not have to live in squalid houses and flats in areas where the police fear to go.  They do not live in gated communities where the real world is kept firmly at bay.  It is easy to pontificate on the need for open borders and for the mass building of housing to accommodate the extra millions in population, when one can afford private medical care, elitist schooling and all the luxuries of the Middle Class lifestyle. It is totally different when one has to deal with the realities of overcrowded criminally-unsafe cities, an education system which enfeebles children, and an NHS which is dying alongside its patients - all factors worsened by an increasing population which the infrastructure and land of the country cannot cope with.

Housing is a fundamental requirement for humans.  In the UK there are an obscene number of properties which are under used.  Nobody can use two homes at the same time, yet second homes are a reality, and to make matters worse, the holiday homes for the rich tend to be located in areas of high unemployment for the local population, with the accompanying problems of homelessness and poverty.  The rich swan into areas they find pretty and relaxing, to use housing which they do not need, for brief periods in the year, while local people live in overcrowded and inadequate properties (if housed at all).  This is unacceptable and inhumane.

Landlordism is an even greater problem than the issue of second homes.  The Duke of Westminster owns 133,100 acres of land in Britain and half of the land in London, from which he extorts ground rent even from people who own the property which sits on that ground.  He is a landlord with so much property that his income has created a wealth in excess of £9 billion - none of it earned, none of it justifiable, all of it the result of inheriting the spoils of exploitation from father to son for generations.

Landlordism on a smaller scale than the Duke of Westminster's exploitation, has been boosted by the 'buy to rent' industry.  The practice of buying a home and then renting it out to tenants who not only pay the mortgage, but make the landlord a profit, is now commonplace.  It has resulted in property ownership becoming a way to make money doing nothing. In addition it has driven rents up and created economic misery for people who cannot afford to but one home, let alone a series of properties.

SWPE calls for an end to Landlordism in any form.  SWPE calls for the total socialisation of all housing and for the restoration of common land to the People.  Homes are for living in, not for making profit from.  We would abolish all rented housing, making the tenants owners.  We would abolish the buying and selling of housing, creating instead a system of occupancy transfer for people to swap their properties should they wish to relocate.  Ground rent is immoral and would be abolished without compensation.  People who own more than one home would be made to choose which home to live in, with the others being reallocated to people who actually need them.

The last of the landed aristocracy who still live in mansions and palaces which they gained through hereditary exploitation, would be relocated to ordinary accommodation to suit their needs according to family size, with the buildings themselves being turned into centres of cultural importance for the population of the country at large.

In a Socialist Society, everyone will be housed and no homes will be left empty.  There will be no such thing as rent or mortgages.  The only people who will lose out will be the bankers, finance industry, and people who have lived like parasites draining their fellow human beings of hard earned money (or for those who cannot find work, their much needed benefits) while they do nothing but collect payments they have undertaken no work to earn.

When this point is reached, the issue of immigration can be addressed.  But while even a single family or individual is unwillingly homeless, not a single new immigrant must be granted access to the housing stock.  We must fix our fundamental problems before we move on to other matters.

Motherhood in a Socialist Society

Under the conditions of the Capitalist system, Motherhood is regarded as a distraction which prevents a woman from having a fulfilling and worthwhile life.  This is a monstrous lie and one of the gravest crimes that the Ruling Class has perpetrated against the rest of us.

It is often stated that Marx wrote of the idea of family withering on the vine.  Marx wrote of the inevitability of the end of the Bourgeois form of family, when the patriarchal power which rested on the ability to dictate the transfer of ownership through heredity, became obsolete with the end of ownership itself.  Marx did write about the need for men and women to be seen for themselves, rather than for the roles attributed to them by the capitalist society, but he did not call for the end of family itself.

Lenin was an advocate for the rights of women to break free from the misery of domestic work. Lenin wrote on the subject that 'worst of all, it is women who have to do, usually alone, all the dirty work of the kitchen and household, work that is unimportant, hard, tiresome, and soul-destroying'. In the era in which he lived, patriarchy was a real and oppressive fact of life, with the idea of men helping out with the chores of the home being unthinkable.  In the modern era, this has passed, with only the most backward thinking of men seriously believing that a 'woman's place is in the kitchen'. The Socialisation of the Home has seen misogynistic patriarchal abuse consigned to history, with those who practice it being rightly seen as outlandish and unwelcome in society at large.

The patriarchal bourgeois family structure has no place in a Socialist society. A Socialist society is a society which works together for the common good.  The confusion which has become entrenched in modern politics with the rise of individualism and identity politics can be traced to the traitor to the Socialist ideal, the man who perverted the ideology of freedom, corrupting it into a vehicle for the continuation of Capitalism, Leon 'judas' Trotsky.  Trotsky negated the idea of Socialism as a means to maximise the well being of the people in general, with an unattainable pursuit of egocentric individualism in which the feelings of the individual outweigh the well being of Society.  The Cultural Marxism so beloved by Social Justice Warriors, argues that the family must be completely eradicated with free-love and abortion for all to become the norm.  This ethos is destructive to the very essence of society and is anti-Socialist. As always, when the name of Trotsky appears, there is always the work of the enemy of the people at play.

When Lenin died, the toxic ideology of Trotskyism arose as a distinct stream of thought. Unfortunately for Socialists the world over, because of Trotsky's opposition to the effective triumvirate of Stalin, Zinoviev and Kamenev in the USSR at the time of Lenin's passing, his perversion of Marxist-Leninism has become the basis of the prevailing sickness of the self-proclaimed Social Justice Warriors.  The SJW ideology is not based on what is good for society, but on individualistic identity politics, which are divisive and destructive.

Trotskyites are allied with Capitalists in a loathing of Motherhood.  They take the words of Lenin which rightly point to the desperate situation of women trapped in the drudgery of a life where house work is the be all and end all, and distort them into an attack on the most vital of all labour, the creation of and nurturing of the next generation.

In the modern Capitalist society which SJWs profess to despise, women are actively discouraged from having children.  Women are told that having children is a barrier to a worthwhile life - that it stops women having 'careers' and earning money to spend on useless tat which is produced solely for the purpose of being bought and increasing the profits of the producers.  Women are encouraged to believe that children are a burden and that it is far better to abort children than to raise them.  The State takes children into the mind rotting school system from the age of 3, and promotes the lunatic idea that it is a woman's right to hand over her children to strangers in order that she can stay in work to earn money, most of which she will then invariably have to part with in order to pay for the strangers to do the work of raising her children.  That people have be employed in nurseries to raise the children of the Working Woman is proof that Motherhood is itself a job, and that rather than belittling it, the crucial role of Motherhood should be honoured and treated as the most important of all work, with full monetary payment as befits it.

Women having children in later life risk having children with disorders such as Downs Syndrome. Children born to older parents risk the tragedy of having to cope with the debilitating problems of old age which are a fact of life.  Putting off parenthood in order to pursue a career (which nearly always just means being a wage slave who just about manages to survive on the scraps of the capitalists' table), is bad for the children and bad for the parents.

The fake refugee invasion of Europe and the UK is justified by reference to our declining birth rates. Capitalism needs an ever growing population to make and buy its crap.  The SJW 'free love revolution' of the 1960s promoted the myth of the burden of children, and the accompanying myth of the benefits of having children in later life (if at all) and of the usefulness of abortion on demand. The sexualisation of society and the attack on the family, has resulted in the mass murder of millions of our people, the drastic drop in the birth rate to well below replacement level, and the shortage of people to work in the capitalist machine.

A Socialist society is one which puts the welfare of the people first, whereas a Capitalist and/or Trotskyite one puts economics (hidden behind the mask of the 'right' to freedom of lifestyle) above everything and has no difficulty in promoting the normalisation of infanticide and population replacement - both of which damage the Working Class community far more than the 'upper' ranks of society which remain immune to the adverse effects of the assault on nature and the belittling of the cultural and social needs of the indigenous population.

The population replacers brought in to create mass unemployment and more producers and consumers, are themselves mere pawns in the global capitalist game, as they are used by the corporations to create wealth, by the globalisers to destroy all vestiges of sovereignty which are barriers to their profits, and by government to impose draconian control over dissent to globalising politics.  Without the assault on family, mass migration and population replacement would be impossible.  The family is the centre of everything. Undermining the family undermines the fabric of society and makes the takeover by the capitalist tyrants far harder to oppose.

Comrade Stalin corrected the errors in Marxist-Leninism and rooted out the sickness of Trotskyism. He treated Motherhood with the respect it deserves.  Rather than treating the raising of children as a lowly task for women, he rightly addressed it as a virtue without which society itself cannot flourish. Stalin created the Order of the Mother Heroine, which paid honour to the women who worked to build the nation.  The Order was bestowed upon any woman, married or unmarried, who raised ten or more children, including those she adopted as well as her own.  For a woman with between seven, eight or nine children, the Order of Maternal Glory was awarded in three respective classes, with the Maternity Medal awarded for having at least five children.  Contrast this with the shameful capitalist scheme of breaking up families, putting children into 'care', and leaving our people to languish in what amount to prisons for children, some who were not wanted, most who were much loved but ripped from their parents by a SJW dominated Social Services criminal network.  Most of Jimmy Saville's victims and the victims of child rapists in places like Rotherham would not have been placed in harm's way if not for the complicity of the Trotskyite SJW Social Services and Police.

Stalin lived in an era in which the experiment in lone parent families had not yet conclusively proved that children benefit greatly from being raised in a two parent household with one father and one mother.  The Great Patriotic War saw the deaths of millions of Soviet men slaughtered defending the Motherland.  Stalin's acceptance of unmarried and married women as of equal worth in the raising of children was due to a combination of the realities of a country with a male population decimated by war, and the unknown harm to children of being raised in households where a father is absent.  Stalin anticipated the disastrous lone parent phenomenon with which the Trotskyite Cultural Marxists have ruined the west of Europe with since the 1960s.  He placed value upon marriage and the stable family. The death of millions of men required that he modify the Order of the Mother Heroine to recognise the contribution of lone mothers to the raising of children, but this did not in any way weaken his belief in the primacy of the natural family.

SWPE recognises the great contribution of Comrade Stalin to the understanding of the central position of the family in the well being of society.  SWPE rejects absolutely the anti-family madness of revisionists, 'family planning' murderers, capitalist exploiters and Trotskyite identity politics fascists.  We would like to see Motherhood recognised as a noble and virtuous task of vital importance to the strength and vitality of the People.  We believe that as the patriarchy is now something which has passed into the annals of history, that just as in the Russian Federation, under ex-KGB officer and Comrade of the Soviet Union, Vladimir Putin, the time has come to honour the family as a unit.  We propose a Medal of Paternity for parents who raise five children or more, their own or adopted.  We propose that Parenthood be honoured not just with medals, but with financial support, so that no longer will Working Class children in the UK suffer the hardships of poverty or the abuse of the 'care' system.  In the coming Socialist Federal Republic of England, Motherhood and Fatherhood will not be denigrated but will be rewarded for being the very cornerstones of a healthy society.

To put to rest the lies of Trotskyite misandrynist so-called feminists and the Social Justice Warrior useful idiots of the Capitalist system, the following are the words of Comrade Stalin himself on the subject of Women in the USSR.  Women are equals to men, and only in a Socialist State with no revisionist Trotskyite influences, can full potential be achieved:

The glorious work of Soviet women, builders of socialist industry, collective farming, socialist culture, will go down in history forever. With every year the role of women in all spheres of life of Soviet society increases.

Soviet women are taking an active part in administration and in state building, which in itself is a vivid proof of the genuine democracy of the Soviet system: 277 women have been elected Deputies of the Supreme Soviet of the U.S.S.R., and more than 1,700 to the Supreme Soviets of the Union and Autonomous Republics; about half a million women are Deputies to local Soviets.

Soviet women are playing a more and more important part in socialist industry. Millions of women workers have mastered highly skilled trades, and are untiringly improving their qualifications and perfecting their skill: 280,000 women are engineers, technicians and skilled factory workers. Hundreds of thousands have been awarded Orders and medals.

Women collective farmers are waging an active struggle for the further advancement of agriculture. Many thousands of women have charge of collective farms, or lead field teams and manage stock-raising farms. Women collective farmers are successfully mastering advanced agricultural technique. Tens of thousands of women drive tractors, harvester combines and other complex agricultural machines.

Soviet women are active leaders in Soviet socialist culture, the most advanced in the world. Together with the men, they work untiringly to increase the spiritual wealth of our people. Widely exercising their right to education, women have grown Into a great cultural force of Soviet society. Forty-four per cent of the total number of graduates from higher educational establishments are women. For outstanding work in the sphere of science, inventions, literature and art, 237 women have been awarded Stalin prizes.

Women are playing an enormous part in public education and in public health. The Soviet State highly values the fine work of women teachers, who are educating our youth in the spirit of high ideals, of love for our Motherland, and of women doctors who safeguard the health of the population. Scores of thousands of women teachers and public health workers have been awarded Orders and medals.

The education of the children is the honourable social duty of mothers. Motherhood and the rearing of children in the U.S.S.R. are honoured and respected. The Soviet State assigns enormous funds to aid mothers with large families and unmarried mothers: 2,500,000 mothers have been awarded the Order "Motherhood Glory" and the "Motherhood Medal". The title "Mother Heroine" has been conferred on 28,500 women.

As a result of the growth of the national economy of the U.S.S.R., the material and cultural well-being of Soviet women and the entire Soviet people increases from year to year. In the past year alone the real wages of manual and office workers have more than doubled. The new reduction of prices on consumer goods introduced on March 1, is a brilliant testimony to the untiring concern of the Communist Party and the Soviet government for the working people. This price reduction means a further considerable rise in the material well-being of Soviet women and of the entire population.

The gains of the Soviet system, the equality of rights of Soviet woman, her rapid spiritual and political growth, serve as an inspiring challenge to the women of the whole world in their struggle for the happiness of the working people, for the triumph of the ideas of socialism and democracy.

Aleppo is Liberated. Now to wipe out the terrorists worldwide

Source: http://www.an-nour.com/
(The following was issued by the Syrian Communist Party (Unified) on the 7th December, before the full liberation of Aleppo by the heroic SAA and those fighting alongside the SAA to free Syria from the terrorist rats in the employ of the globalist banking cabal):

Dear comrades:

As is well known, our party, along with other progressive and patriotic parties of Syria, is struggling against what is nowadays considered one of most barbarous imperialist aggressions of the period since World War Two, a struggle against the most extremist and fundamentalist radical movements of this century like al-Nusra Front, ISIS and al-Qaeda which have been condemned internationally.

This struggle is the practical embodiment of confrontation against the imperialist projects of domination in the world and in the region – the U.S. drive to create the so-called “New Middle East.”

Tens of thousands of people have been killed, hundreds of thousands others have been wounded, and thousands of families were forced to migrate to more peaceful areas inside and outside Syria. The damages are countless, thousands of workshops and factories of middle and small industries have been destroyed as well as many large industrial structures, infrastructure, schools and hospitals. Archaeological treasures and ancient cities have been crushed. Syrian oil and other wealth of the Syrian people are being stolen and smuggled to Turkey whose regime is allied with terrorist organizations. The value of these damages is estimated at around 200 billion dollars.

The Syrian people, along with the government, Syrian army and progressive political forces of the country, has been bravely resisting this aggression since its beginning in 2011.

Terrorists who fulfill this attack on Syria have come from more than 80 countries, supported by the imperial powers of the world and their allies.

The threat now is spreading outside Syria and the region to other areas and countries, including European countries like France and Belgium. Now, terrorism is an international phenomenon, and the U.S. administration is considered the number one supporter of this project fulfilled by terrorists and mercenaries. Experts from western countries and financiers from Arab reactionary regimes, mainly Saudi Arabia and Qatar, provide support and sponsorship to terrorist organization with the cooperation of Turkey.

Facing this complicated and hard situation, Syria had to request help from the Russian Federation.

Moscow provided Syria with the support it needed to resist this barbarous aggression.

The Russian help confused the western government and the regional reactionary regimes of Turkey, Qatar and Saudi Arabia, because this support has radically changed the balance of forces on the battlefield, and helped Syria stand its ground throughout six years of war.

Syria will continue her struggle in defense of the Syrian people and to free the whole Syrian soil from aggressors.

The Syrian government informed the international community of the reasons it requested this help from the Russian Federation.

1. This help comes at the request of the legitimate government.
2. According to the charter of the United Nations and all international resolutions, it is prohibited for any state to attack or interfere in the internal affairs of another state.
3. Any country under attack has the right of self-defense, according to international laws and norms.

At the same time as the legitimate forces are continuing to defend Syria and free the occupied territories from the terrorists, who are trying to impose their laws from 1500 years ago and commit the most bloodthirsty crimes, Syria is supporting a political solution of the crisis on the basis of stopping the bloodshed, evacuating all the occupied areas of foreign terrorist forces, as well as the holding of democratic elections in the county and initiation of a national inclusive dialogue with opposition parties in the country. Yet the terrorists, having relations with certain opposition groups, try constantly to press those groups to keep fighting the government, and to fail the political process based on the Geneva One and Two conferences as well as the Vienna meeting and the agreement between the Russian and the U.S sides.

Comrades!

Blood is still being shed in Syria, especially in the city of Aleppo, the second capital of the country. 75 percent of its territories were freed by the Syrian Arab Army and its allies. However, terrorists in Aleppo refused any truce to save the lives of civilians, whom they use as human shields.

Comrades, our party is most interested in confirming the following facts:

1. It is not acceptable to put the offender and the victim on an equal footing.
2. International law does not allow any county to interfere in the internal affairs of any other country, which is what the terrorists and their supporters do in Syria. Demanding President Assad step down is an affair to be decided only by the Syrian people.
3. The aggressors are the only side who carry the full responsibility for the losses and damages in the country.
4. The aggression against Syria is going along with mass media/imperialist campaign, on which billions of dollars are spent by the USA and Saudi Arabia. Through this media facts about events in the country are falsified and this information is spread around the world.
5. Iraq is also under the same aggression and the Iraqi people are resisting it. It is the duty of all progressive forces of the world to supported the brave resistance of the Iraqi and Syrian peoples against the international terrorist aggressors.

Comrades,

The progressive parties in Syria are struggling mainly to save the living conditions of the people, especially in the circumstances of war and the unjust economic blockade against the Syrian people.

However, the Syrians have proven, throughout years of imperialist aggression, their patriotism and determination to hold on to democratic, progressive and independent life. At the same time the Syrian people support the political solution of the crisis.

Our party is looking forward to keeping our mutual connections through all available means, to give answers to any question that may occur on the situation in Syria.

The Syrian Unified Communist Party is also looking forward to cooperate with your party and all progressive and democratic parties in your country in matters of providing humanitarian aid.

A Warm Welcome to Peter Wilberg

SWPE is very pleased to welcome into the fold the philosopher and founder of the National People's Party, Peter Wilberg.  Peter has a complete understanding of the nature of the Banking Mafia, with its intimidating debt collectors disguised as the judiciary and police.  For those who are not aware of Peter's works, the following is taken from his NPP days, (although Peter has updated it for inclusion on this site) and is a foretaste of what is to come as he begins writing for SWPE on this site:

Today the entire mainstream media and political parties and their leaders go along with the ‘Big Lie’ that public spending cuts and other ‘austerity’ measures are needed to reduce the ‘national deficit’ and ‘national debt’ – when in reality there would be no such debt in the first place if the right of national governments to create and issue money had not been handed to the global banks – putting 97% of the nation’s money in their hands – for only 3% of all money today taking the form of paper money and coins printed and minted by the state, whereas 97% of takes the form of electronic money in the hands of the banks.

The aim of the National People’s Party in the U.K. is an old one – is to delink nationalism with racism of any sort and say (again) what it’s true meaning is should be i.e. to free nations and their peoples from debt-slavery to a global banking mafia and their puppet press, parties, and politicians. To to this however, means re-asserting the sovereign right of nations to finance public spending with money created and issued directly by that state – rather than borrowed at interest from the global banks.

It is simply not good enough do to as both Labour and old-Left Trotskyist or socialist type parties are doing unsuccessfully – fighting cuts in public spending – without explaining why there is in reality no reason for them, and not recognising that renationalisation of money is the only policy that would make such cuts unnecessary – eliminating austerity and poverty not only this country but worldwide.

That is why there is an urgent need in this country for a ‘UKIP of the Left’ – united around a single issue – but only if those both the Left and Right finally come to see what that central policy issue is and should be – the need for re-nationalistion of money creation – something which so far only liberal British pressure groups like Positive Money or Public Banking movement in America have done.

This solution to national economic problems and national ‘debt’ – i.e. debt to the international banks – whilst very simple in principle never gets a single mention in the media It is also more abstract for a lot of people to get their heads round – whereas seeing more immigrants coming in from Europe or mosques sprouting up is not. So it is no surprise that recently a far-right grouping calling itself the ‘British Resistance’ has now launched a so-called ‘National People’s Party’ – on a racist and anti-immigrant platform. Such hijacking of ‘nationalism’ (and of the very word ‘national’) by racist movements and parties is a very old story – going back to the interwar years in Germany.

Therefore another important aim of the National People’s Party in the U.K. is to subvert and undermine national racist movements of any sort which disguise themselves as national socialist movements. This is something that many dissident members of both nationalist, communist, social nationalist party sought to do in Germany – including many members of Hitler’s German National Socialist Party – resulting in the creation of ‘National Bolshevism’ Without the solution offered by the National People’s Party in the U,K. – by social-monetary nationalism and national bolshevism – both Right and Left will end up as in Greece: facing the steady rise of new far-right racist and neo-Nazi parties like ‘The Golden Dawn’ – who pin all the blame for all economic woes on foreigners and immigrants rather than the global banks.

To be fair, to use the term Nazi in connection with Golden Dawn is problematic: Neo-Nazis' would be an alternative term, but only so long as it is understood, that present-day skinhead type 'neo-Nazis' of the German and also Greek sort - as the German patriot and revisionist Ernst Zundel (only recently released from prison) was keen to make plain - are mostly a mob of racist idiots who know next next to nothing about National Socialism or even Hitler. So even granting them the label 'neo-Nazi' is to do their intelligence more of an honour than it deserves!

A forum for Socialist exchange

Why are we Socialists?  We are Socialists because we are motivated by a desire to bring about the best possible Society, with an end to the despotic control of the Ruling Class.  We want a future in which people are freed from the drudgery of wage slavery, so that all of us can enjoy the fruits of our own labour, and can pursue whatever artistic ventures we wish to pursue.

Socialism isn't about swapping one set of rulers for another and continuing as before in serfdom. Socialism is about breaking our chains and becoming free. Freedom from the fear of homelessness, freedom from the fear of hunger, freedom from the tyranny of poverty - these are important in themselves, but they are not the end.  Freedom to explore our potential, freedom to develop ideas, freedom to explore our minds, freedom to create with our hands, the freedom to be free - this is what Socialism brings to the People.

Part of the journey to achieving a Socialist Republic has to involve meeting and discussing ideas with new people.  A comrade has set up a forum with the intention of promoting dialogue between Left Nationalists, Third Positionists, (Socialism in One Country) Stalinists, Marxist-Leninists, Strasserites, National Bolsheviks and others who reject Capitalism, Globalism, Liberalism and Trotskyism.  The forum idea is one which has potential, so we ask that people at least pop by and have a look.  If there are any other fora which could be of interest, please post them below.  Feedback on the forum would be appreciated.  The venture is the work of independent activists.  Let them know what you think.  A forum only works if it has contributors who put in the effort.   Maybe YOU might be such a person?

Workers' Revolutions don't happen without the Workers!

SWPE is a Revolutionary party.  By Revolutionary, we mean that we do not seek an accommodation with the Establishment, we do not seek any form of compromise which will allow for the Ruling Class oppressors and the bourgeois collaborators to continue to hold positions of power and influence.  We want to completely overturn the current system and to bring into being a Socialist Republic which will put the People and Nature before Profit.

It is fine to speak of Revolution.  It is another thing to achieve it.  It is important that we increase our base of support, but in such a way that we do not have to dilute our ideals.

Radical organisations grow by attracting people who are like-minded.  The maintenance of ideological purity comes at the cost of risking decline into cult status, more often than not with the added problem of despotic leadership controlling the membership in a tyrannical fashion.  An extreme example of the danger of a completely closed organisation with an autocratic leadership was the Workers' Institute of Marxism-Leninism Mao Zedong Thought (WIMLMZT), which was ultimately a plaything for its violent, sadistic and megalomaniacal rapist leader, Aravindan Balakrishnan.  SWPE is a million miles from the lunacy of the WIMLMZT, as are all of the organisations and individuals we are in contact with.  Non-members reading this need have no worries that SWPE could ever even set foot on the path that WIMLNZT progressed down (and members will laugh at the idea!).  The danger of Cultism has to be taken seriously though.

The point of raising the idea of closed groups is to highlight a genuine problem faced by all who are involved in Revolutionary politics.  If we let just anyone join, without first being sure that they are of the right calibre and have the same ideological tendencies as ourselves, then we will grow and the membership coffers will increase, but this is at the cost of the inevitable slide into factionalism and ego issues.  Plenty of parties are happy with gaining members, taking their money from them, and replacing them with new customers members when they get fed up and drop out.  SWPE has no time for the politics business (for that is what such parties are), recruiting instead people of quality who share our ideals and will stay with us to build the party and keep it moving forward.

The merging of the old FWL and BSP took a lot of time and serious consideration.  It was a rare success which we are all rightly proud of.  But to expect SWPE to continue to grow by merging with as yet unknown groups, is expecting too much.  Realistically, the tendency in organisations is for cliques to form, growing into factions, then into separate entities as they find they cannot coexist with the other factions inside the same organisation.  This creates quite a problem for people who seek a total revolution, during which the State is to be overthrown and the Dictatorship of the Proletariat put in place.

Revolutionary Unity isn't going to happen by all the rival organisations merging into one.  It is a nice thought, but not a practical one.  People who have built organisations, or have risen through the ranks to positions of leadership, or have simply found a home where they feel that their comrades share the same vision as themselves of a better future, do not feel comfortable throwing away what they have. In some cases, the parties exist as cash cows for the leaders: letting parasites who see the desperate plight of the Working Class as an excuse for making money, into contact with others who have not had to deal with such immoral people in political circles, is an obvious recipe for trouble.

SWPE approach to the problem of overcoming the Class Enemy, is to unite with like-minded groups and individuals on an issue by issue basis.  We are already building alliances with a range of comrades across a number of countries, covering different cultures and strands of thought.  We always keep true to our belief in autonomy, cooperating where it is mutually beneficial, but never trying to dominate or dictate to those we work with.

To build a mass movement in a time of a myriad of competing organisations, does not require the submission of any group or individual to any other.  Loose informal alliances work well in pursuing common aims.  All Socialists share the grand aim of exposing and breaking false class consciousness in the section of the Proletariat which considers itself 'middle class' and doesn't realise that it is just as much controlled and beaten down by the Ruling Class as the rest of us.  Keeping that in mind, allows us to see who our potential allies really are, and who are the wasters and useful idiots who are fighting ghosts and who really need to be avoided at all costs.

The Identity politics of the Trotskyites and liberals which infest the Socialist movement, is a distraction we need to keep clear from.  Those who are obsessed with campaigns concerning sexuality, race, so-called 'gender' and other divisive issues, are enemies of the Revolution.  We have to be absolutely clear that we will never allow our struggle to be derailed by unreconstructed Trotskyites / reactionary revisionists.  We are free to unite with everyone who can see beyond the sham circus of identity politics.  Change comes through smashing the organs of the State, not by pandering to people who think they have rights to work and welfare solely because they engage in certain sexual acts, have a right not to have their 'feelings' hurt, or other such drivel of the political correctness industry.

We reach out to everyone who can help to destabilise the Capitalist State, and not get bogged down by those who want to reform it or give their favoured minorities more scraps from the table than everyone else.  We are not interested in the reallocation of the scraps, we are interested in smashing the table!

SWPE is constantly reaching out to people who can see that the whole system has to be destroyed and a new better way put in its place.  Maintaining our organisations but marching together in the same direction, is the only way to bring about the downfall of Capitalism. We can argue over the details of what comes next, when we stand on the rubble of the citadels of Ruling Class power.  To break the citadels in the first place has to be our primary purpose.

So we call on all who are fighting for the end of Ruling Class domination to join with us in the common struggle.  If you agree with our ideology and see SWPE as a place where you could belong, get in touch and we can discuss the next step on the path to joining (we don't take anyone at all, just in return for membership subs!)  If you represent an organisation and which to join with us in a loose alliance which will be mutually beneficial in that it will advance common aims, get in touch.  We are many, but we are ghettoised and isolated.  To achieve the revolutionary aims we share, we have to communicate and to organise together - not necessarily as Comrades in the same organisation, but always as Comrades in the same cause.

The contact information is at the top of the page. Use it!  Together we are strong.

Goodbye, and R.I.P. Fidel

Rest in peace Comandante Fidel, though you may be gone, the inspiration, and legacy you left behind won't disappear. Solidarity for you great comrade, and viva la Cuba!



Eulogy by Comrade J V Stalin:

We all are of course saddened by the death of comrade Fidel Castro. We as communists, can only hope that there are like minded people, in all positions in all sectors of their society to keep the revolution-evolution path to a communist system going,and they don't slip backwards into capitalist consumer,money and profit above all, driven society...and...that the evil empire US does not infiltrate and change their system .

The reason that I write today is,the above,but as well,I've been listening to and sickened by the capitalist mainstream media's coverage of this tragic,saddening event.

The MSM (mainstream media)...whom I loath, keeps going on about all the old lies concerning Cuba,you know, about the brutal dictatorship and deaths....and you know...all the BS. Not once do they mention that the entire founding of their country..the..US.. is soaked in blood and death and suffering and misery.

The indigenous people of North America have been put through Fascist, ethnic cleansing tactics, by imperialistic, money grubbing,power hungry forces that took over their lands and almost drove these people to extinction..... And they talk of Cuba!!!

Not to mention the slave trade,the barbarity of which is horrific,and the racism in the states that permeates their capitalist society is palpable.

The treatment and internment into camps, of Japanese Americans during WW-2,in the land of the free??? was heinous...particularly when the MSM keeps on spouting how "free and open to all" that their society supposedly is. And they talk of Cuba!!!!!

Not to mention the millions upon millions of deaths the US is responsible for(after the end of WW-2) both directly and indirectly through wars,and supporting brutal(usually fascist) puppet-surrogate regimes...right up to and including today!! And they talk of Cuba!!!!

And the deaths in their own country due to the proliferation,and easy access to guns in their corrupt morally bankrupt society(and the gun manufacturers are laughing all the way to the bank) . In Chicago alone from the start of the New Year 2016 to..I believe it was September 2016,there were 3000 deaths by guns!!!!!!!!! It was some kind of record or something(they must be so proud). That is just ONE big city!!! The US is like a war zone!!! And they talk of Cuba!!!

Not to mention the statistics for suicide deaths with a gun or otherwise...all tied into the pharmaceutical industry pushing anti-depressants and mood altering LEGAL!! drugs...not to mention record numbers of abusers of alcohol.......and illegal drug abuse.....and the laughable inept useless "war on drugs" ...it would be a joke if not so tragic!!!! And they talk of Cuba!!!

POP Culture...there is another one designed to take the money and the minds of our youth...and take away any ability, for those who fall for this,.......of any type of critical thought,which of course is what the power brokers want,a pacified uninformed(or misinformed) youth and masses!!!! And they talk of Cuba!!!!

I did happen to see some truth,but it was short in duration. They went to a University in Cuba,and they interviewed some students,and all said that they were saddened by Fidel's death, and Fidel was like a father figure to them. They interviewed Eilian Gonzalez,who is now 22 years old. He had nothing but praise admiration and respect...and sadness on speaking of Fidel's death...Eilian said that "Fidel was like a Father to me,I and the country will miss him greatly"......But after that the media went back to the crazy's living in Miami to continue the bashing,and lies about Fidel and Cuba,and this reporting went on and on and on..add nausea!!!

No comrades by in large the biggest chunk of media time is doing the big sham job on the passing of Fidel Castro and all the great things the people under his and other great revolutionaries guidance, accomplished. It is shameful!!!! That a great leader is besmirched with lies such as they are doing to comrade Fidel Castro.

We must continue on the struggle comrades!!!!!
