Steve Score, Editor of the Socialist
This year, we celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the Socialist and its predecessor Militant. We are proud of our record of reporting on the struggles and views of workers ignored by the rest of the press. We have a massive advantage, though. We have thousands of potential writers, all experts in their fields: the ordinary workers and socialist activists who support us. We believe our rigorous analysis and concrete demands also set us apart. That's why you should subscribe to the Socialist today.
"The Socialist is a campaigning newspaper that offers an alternative view to the one the mainstream media offers. It deals with issues that are really at the heart of our communities and our society. It offers hard hitting stories based on real people and real issues. If you want to get closer to the truth on events, the Socialist offers an independent view to the establishment controlled media that is keen to maintain its hold on our society and serves in the interest of its owners."
Ian Hodson, President, bakers' union BFAWU

Finance appeal
The coronavirus crisis has laid bare the class character of society in numerous ways. It is making clear to many that it is the working class that keeps society running, not the CEOs of major corporations.
The results of austerity have been graphically demonstrated as public services strain to cope with the crisis.
The government has now ripped up its 'austerity' mantra and turned to policies that not long ago were denounced as socialist. But after the corona crisis, it will try to make the working class pay for it, by trying to claw back what has been given.
- The Socialist Party's material is more vital than ever, so we can continue to report from workers who are fighting for better health and safety measures, against layoffs, for adequate staffing levels, etc.
- When the health crisis subsides, we must be ready for the stormy events ahead and the need to arm workers' movements with a socialist programme - one which puts the health and needs of humanity before the profits of a few.
Inevitably, during the crisis we have not been able to sell the Socialist and raise funds in the ways we normally would.
We therefore urgently appeal to all our viewers to donate to our Fighting Fund.
