Campaign for Socialism (CfS) is a left-wing, democratic socialist group comprised of Scottish Labour Party members and supporters.

Join: http://www.campaignforsocialism.org.uk/join/ CfS was formed in 1994 as part of the left’s campaign to retain Clause 4 of the Labour Party’s constitution. The group now exists to promote socialist ideas and policies within the labour movement. CfS members are represented at every level of the party. As well as grassroots activists we have councillors, MSPs and members who sit on the Scottish and UK Executive Committees. In 2017 CfS agreed to maintain a joint membership scheme with Momentum to help build the Labour left in Scotland and across the rest of the UK. CfS remains a separate and autonomous organisation, and makes political and campaign decisions relating to the Scottish Labour left.

The UK Labour Government have an opportunity to enact historic change for workers, communities and climate during the course of this UK Parliament. Labour must be clear - common ownership of clean energy is the way to guarantee energy security, affordable bills and good green jobs for workers. Further fossil fuel extraction by mega-corporations in the North Sea will only benefit private shareholders and foreign states. must make a decision based on reality, not fossil fuel speculation, and reject Rosebank.

Hosted by John McDonnell MP with Richard Burgon MP // Sarah Woolley (BFAWU) // Gawain Little (GFTU) // Simon Fletcher (analyst & campaigner) // Zita Holbourne, BARAC (Black Activists Rising Against Cuts) // Johnbosco Nwogbo (We Own It,) plus more tba.

This is a fork-in-the road moment, with Andy Burnham entering Number 10 on the promise of change & an end to 40 years of failed economics. Come to this event to discuss the alternative we need- irreversibly shifting the balance of power & wealth in favour of working people.

We need to say there IS an economic alternative. It includes extending public ownership & ending privatisation; expanding workers’ rights to shift power; a Green revolution & taxing wealth to pay for public services for all - defeating Reform with socialist policies.

A major online Left event following successful initial events in Brighton & Liverpool. Free event but solidarity donations here essential to hosting costs: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=B6TZSCVWXK3X6

The declared candidates must now explain how they will break from the failed politics of Sarwar and Baillie. Rhetoric is not enough. Over the next few weeks CfS will be pushing for tangible policies on social and economic justice.

A poor effort by the right wing press to create problems that dont exist.

Nominations havent even opened yet and all MSPs are well within their right to set out their vision for the party. Any notion of “vote splitting” is premature. There must be a broad and open contest.

Public diners have been successfully implemented across the world and we’ve already seen some exciting pilot schemes in Scotland.

With 200,000 households struggling for food, tangible policies to tackle poverty must be at the forefront of the leadership debate.

A potential candidate to become next Scottish Labour leader urged ministers to help establish publicly-funded restaurants to serve free or low-cost…

An easily delivered win which should be at the top of everyone’s Agenda. Lack of access to affordable and healthy food is wrecking the health of many and during school holidays the problem worsens. Public diners can address that and so much more to strengthen our communities.

Great intervention from Katy Clark MSP. Scottish Labour must be the party of social and economic justice.
