Our rulers have always followed the USA’s drive to war. But now it is Starmer leading calls for escalation of the war in Europe.

War isn’t in the interest of British workers, nor is membership of NATO. How can workers bring this message home to the new government?

Net migration reaches record levels, rising from 107,000 in 1997 to a record 745,000 at the end of 2022. The government blusters, but is determined to increase it yet further. How should we respond?

How to protect the environment (and why the EU makes things worse)

London

London, Tuesday 3 March 2020, 7.30 pm

A CPBML public meeting in the Bertrand Russell Room, Conway Hall, Red Lion Square, London WC1R 4RL.  

We are often told we must stay in the EU “to protect our environmental rights”. And yet we constantly read that the environment has grown worse over the past few decades – when Britain was a member of the EU. Both refrains cannot be right. Come and hear an independent approach to the environment in a lively talk – and then join in the discussion. Free entry.

Parliament has set its face against the people. But up and down the country ordinary people are doing it for themselves and taking a range of actions to demand that our democratic decision is honoured.

CPBML Public Meeting, Thursday 28 September, 7.30pm

Brockway Room, Conway Hall, Red Lion Square, London WC1R 4RL
