Why you should join us

DAVE NELLIST was a Labour MP from 1983-1992. He is now one of three Socialist Party councillors in Coventry and a member of the Stop of the War Coalition national steering committee.

"THERE CAN be few experiences quite as potent as being on a demonstration of millions of people, the feeling of solidarity, of ownership of the streets, of the power of organised protest and knowing that across the world in over three dozen major cities, the numbers demonstrating are running into maybe hundreds of millions. We are literally a part of history.

But, as powerful a message as the anti-war war demonstrations are sending, they can't alone stop this war.

This requires considerable organisation not merely the raw power of numbers but a sustained and coordinated campaign of mass, civil disobediance.

It also requires a worked out strategy and a clear vision.

The Committee for a Workers International (CWI), with members already organised in 36 countries, on every continent, is seeking to build an international party of socialism.

The Socialist Party, the CWI's section in England and Wales, is a strong, cohesive and democratic organisation of workers and youth, with roots in communities in almost every town and city, and support across a wide range of trade unions.

We are striving to become a decisive political force capable of channeling working peoples' anger into mass campaigns for 'system change'.

Which is why we need you.

Don't leave your opposition to war to a few hours on the streets of London. Join the Socialist Party in our work to build a socialist world, free from terror and war."
