SOCIALIST Please send me more information about the Workers Send to: WSL, 31, Dartmouth Park Hill, Few movements can ever have trodden on so many toes in so short a time as the Workers Socialist League.

Our movement has been at the forefront of agitation for action to break Labour's wage controls - brushing aside the posturing speeches of the TUC bureaucracy to reveal their real collaboration with Phases 1,2 and 3.

We have fought tenacDON'T GOT TO 'EFT! BLUDFOLDI GET SOCIALIST clear For a PRESS lead in the struggle against wage control, cuts and redundancies COL TREFR:

iously against the sale of jobs at Speke, in steel and elsewhere by the TUC bureaucracy, and highlighted their fraudulent talk of fighting unemployment' Our members have time and again deflated fiery speeches by 'left' windbags who talk of opposition to the cuts but make no call for strikes or occupations;

as a result we have been in the front rank of support for every major cuts NEE CUT the answers in fighting policies to defend jobs, wages and social services We have championed every major unionisation struggle from Grunwick to Garners and Sandersons, highlighting each step of bureaucratic betrayal and sabotage.

And the Workers Socialist League has been at the forefront of the fight in British Leyland and throughout industry to oppose the erosion of the independent shop stewards' movement through class collaboration in "workers participation' bodies.

Explain

In each of these struggles and in our international work the WSL has fought to reveal and to explain the counter-revolutionary role played by the Stalinists of the Communist Parties -whether these be 'Eurocommunist' parties or those adhering to Moscow.

Our principled stand on these issues has also vividly exposed the opportunism and confusion of the various other left groups who claim to offer workers a revolutionary' alternative.

And such struggles have earned our members continued witch-hunting and victimisation at the hands of employers and union officials alike.

The lessons of these fights, together with an up-to-date assessment of the developing struggles of the working class internationally, have been reflected in our paper, Socialist Press.

Now, as struggles break out on a growing scale against Phase 4 of wage controls, and public sector workers increasingly rebel at low wages and the impact of savage Labour spending cuts the need to carry this fight for revolutionary leadership to new sections of workers is greater than ever.

The fighting perspective of the Trotskyist programme offers every militant a weapon in the dual fight against the employers and against the treachery of Labour and TUC bureaucrats.

With this in mind, a national meeting of WSL branch secretaries last weekend voted to launch an immediate one month campaign to increase regular readership of Socialist Press by at least 200 by November 1 - the first anniversary of the weekly paper.

Special posters have been produced to back up this sales campaign, and existing readers will be asked if they can take extra copies-to sell in their workplaces or estates.

Our impact even with our existing forces and sales of Socialist Press has been considerable.

Now only our small size as a movement stands in the way of deepening that impact.

We call on Socialist Press readers and supporters to consider the coming struggles, the problems they face, and the necessity of a principled lead in each day-to-day fight.

Why not join us, and help us trample on even more bureaucratic toes in the months and years. ahead? ! I would like to receive issues. I enclose the sum Name.
