We are Red Fightback – a revolutionary Marxist‐Leninist party in Britain that is dedicated to the struggle against capitalism, imperialism, opportunism, the climate crisis, and oppressive structures that sustain and are sustained by class, such as racism, sexism, and ableism.
We exist because there is a vacuum in British revolutionary politics – there is no other communist party in Britain that fulfils all of the following key points:
Is a Marxist-Leninist party that practices democratic centralism
Stands up for oppressed people and groups, acknowledging the class origins of their oppression without falling into class reductionism
Deals with abuse and complaints in a transparent, timely and effective manner
Makes the climate crisis a priority
Refuses to take an opportunist approach (i.e. a different set of politicians won’t fix our problems, only a different system)
Practices true democracy amongst its members
Together, we can bring an end to capitalism and usher in a future for all of us, instead of a future intended just for businesses, business owners and the ruling classes.

The interim membership process
After you contact us, we will assign you with a sponsor, who will be your guide and mentor through the initial stages of joining Red Fightback. There is an entry reading list that we expect all prospective members to complete once they’ve made contact with us to inquire about joining. That list can be found here. That said, don’t wait to have read all of these before getting in contact with us! We regularly hold educational sessions that are open to prospective members, and attending these will help to progress your membership application.
Once you’ve finished the reading list, and attended some educationals, your sponsor will progress your application further. After you’ve been sponsored, various committees do their part, and if all goes well, you’ll become a fully fledged member.
Subs
As a full member, you will be expected to pay subs in order to keep the organisation running and to provide assistance to other members where necessary.
The current minimum monthly rates of subs are as follows:
Unwaged/student: £2 (optional)
Waged under £ 30,000p.a.: £5(+)
Waged over £30,000p.a.: £10(+)

We call upon unions, councils, teachers and parents to expose the realities of the government’s plans to prematurely reopen schools, to actively resist reopenings, and to mount an immediate propaganda campaign to stop this plan.
The pandemic has shown that this rotten system is beyond reform, and there’s a pressing need to raise the level of struggle into a fight for revolutionary socialism and full working-class control and ownership of the state and economy. The fight of our lives is coming.
And so we warn you: in the years to come, you may be asked a question. You would do well to prepare. First, they came for the elderly, the disabled, the migrants and the chained. What did you do?
