The Communist Party of Britain (CPB) identifies as Britain's Marxist party within the labor movement, aiming to foster socialist revolution. This party traces its ideological and philosophical roots to Marxism-Leninism, emphasizing the history of class struggles as outlined by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels.
The party's heritage incorporates a long history of communist ideals that extend back to the Middle Ages in Britain.
According to its constitution, the CPB's goal is to establish a socialist Britain where the means of production are socially owned and operated for the collective benefit. This involves a revolutionary transformation from capitalism to socialism, ultimately transitioning towards a communist society where resources are allocated based on need.
The CPB is organized to function as a democratic, centralized, and disciplined unit. It stresses the importance of unity within the party and the broader labor movement, drawing on the creativity and initiative of its members.
Internationally, it maintains relationships with various communist and socialist movements worldwide, advocating for peace, progress, and national liberation.
The party critiques the capitalist system for its exploitation through the accumulation of surplus value from workers. It highlights the inherent crises within capitalism, such as overproduction and subsequent economic downturns.
The CPB views the state as a tool for the dominant class to perpetuate its interests, necessitating a revolutionary overthrow by the working class to establish a socialist state.
The CPB discusses the role of imperialism in the modern era, particularly the influence of state-monopoly capitalism, which it claims exacerbates exploitation, waste, and economic instability. The party is critical of global institutions like the EU, IMF, and World Bank, accusing them of enforcing neoliberal policies that benefit imperialist states at the expense of global equity.
The party remains committed to revolutionary change, advocating for the overthrow of capitalist structures and promoting socialist alternatives. It supports international solidarity against imperialism and strives for a coalition of forces that can challenge global capitalist hegemony.
The CPB has been actively involved in various cultural, social, and political campaigns within Britain, linking its revolutionary agenda with broader movements for social justice, including anti-racism, anti-fascism, and workers' rights.
