Campaign for a New Workers' Party
The Campaign For A New Workers' Party is an initiative of the Socialist Party of England and Wales that argues for the establishment of a new mass workers' party, involving trade union activists, socialists, anti-capitalists, and community, anti-war and environmental activists. It was launched at the party's annual ''Socialism'' event in November 2005. There are more than 4000 signatories to the campaign's founding declaration,〔(Founding declaration )〕 many of whom are trade unionists.〔(Building the Campaign for a New Workers' Party ) - retrieved 14/02/08〕 Some left parties have claimed that the CNWP is a front for the Socialist Party. Like the Socialist Alliance in the early 1990s, the CNWP is joining local electoral fronts, such as Save Huddersfield NHS, which has a CNWP supporter and SP member as a councillor. The CNWP is supporting the Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition in the 2010 General Election. == Founding== The campaign stemmed from the dissolution of the Socialist Alliance in 2004 when Respect - The Unity Coalition was founded. A conference in Liverpool in March 2004 called for a 'Campaign for a Mass Party of the Working Class'. The first formal conference was in London on 19 March 2006, chaired by Dave Nellist, a former Labour MP and current Socialist Party councillor in Coventry. The conference debated nine resolutions about the future shape of the campaign, and elected officers and a steering committee. Policies included a "living minimum wage", full trade union rights and the withdrawal of troops from Iraq.〔 Delegates argued that due to what they saw as previous false starts in trying to establish a party to represent working people — such as Arthur Scargill's Socialist Labour Party — any new party would have to be democratic, open and inclusive, taking a federal approach,〔 to bring in as many supportive organisations and groups as possible, with no one group or individual dominating. Delegates came from the refounded Socialist Alliance, the Alliance for Workers' Liberty, the Communist Party of Britain, the Socialist Unity Network, the United Socialist Party, and Walsall's Democratic Labour Party. Over 300 of the delegates at the conference were active trade unionists, including members of trade union national executive committees. The campaign allows trade unions to affiliate to it and over half of the new steering committee were elected by trade union commissions.
