THE London Communist Party is fielding 12 candidates for the London Assembly election on May 2 2024 and calling for Londoners to make their vote count for the cause of the working class and for peace and justice when they vote in May and the upcoming general election.

London district secretary Robin Talbot said: “London’s communists are standing on a programme of fighting for a better quality of life, to save our crumbling public and social services and to defend our communities and democratic way of life from the managed decline and anti-democratic shift that we have seen under more than a decade of Tory rule.

“In these elections, we have an opportunity to send a message that Britain’s elected politicians must stop arming and supporting the bombing, starvation and ethnic cleansing carried out by the Israeli government against the Palestinian people, a cause which is close to the heart of many citizens of London and Britain.
