THE Communist Party of Britain has called for a mass movement to fight for public ownership, social justice and peace following the King’s speech today.

General secretary Robert Griffiths noted that Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has said his government aims to “under-promise and over-deliver.”

“He's certainly achieved the first aim in the King’s speech, despite Labour enjoying the second biggest majority at Westminster since the 1930s,” Mr Griffiths said.
