The Red Flag is ‘red’ because it represents the blood of the Workers sacrificed all over the world to secure rights, justice and freedom for the ordinary people. The tradition of a ‘Red Flag’ may have began during the 1871 Paris Commune.

The Red Flag is ‘red’ because it represents the blood of the Workers sacrificed all over the world to secure rights, justice and freedom for the ordinary people. The tradition of a ‘Red Flag’ may have began during the 1871 Paris Commune.
CP General Secretary Robert Griffiths has called on Party members and supporters, “March with Communists behind our banner – Britain Needs Socialism – this Saturday 1 July in central London. Organise. Bring workmates and fellow activists. Make this a giant declaration of intent to drive this Government out!”.
As matters stand, this currently includes any criticism of Tony Blair, criticism of the Iraq and Afghan Wars, and criticism of any policy (or lack of) associated with ‘New’ Labour. Another area to watch-out for, is anyone who is a Member of the Communist Party whilst joining the Labour Party – as under Labour Party Rules, the Communist Party (and its Members) remain a ‘proscribed’.
It was made clear that all Communist Party Members must support one another and always work together without a break in co-operation. This is how China is to be strengthened from the base up, throughout all its educational facilities.
Do not harm or kill the servants of the current bourgeois system, but treat them with respect and ‘convince’ them through reasoned argument that the establishment of Scientific Socialism in the UK through the democratic system, is in their best interests.
Following the bourgeois interpretation of Communism is hardly the basis for a ‘free’ approach to existence!
