Communist Students will be out and about up and down the country putting the case for Marxism. We will be doing stalls at freshers fayres in London, Manchester, Sheffield, Edinburgh, Glasgow and beyond! If you want to help out, or come along for a chat and to buy the new edition of our magazine ‘Communist Student’ Issue 6 then let us know!

The coming year looks to be our biggest yet, CS members and supporters up and down the country will be looking to build and strengthen the anti war movement by building Hands Off the People of Iran and working in the Stop the War Coalition to try and build a movement that can stop an attack on Iran. At the same time we will be strengthening our links with students in Iran and across the world, giving practical solidarity where we can and engaging in discussions on the way forward for our movement. We will also be working to make the student movement more open, democratic and Marxist! The NUS leadership looks set to push through their governance review which will gut the last remnants of democracy within the NUS. The Left needs to oppose this attack but we must be prepared to put forward a positive programme instead of just defending the status-quo.

Communist Students are also sponsoring the ‘Convention of the Left’ which is a counter conference to the Labour Party conference. We will be there pushing the case for principled left unity and the necessity of Marxism as the guiding light of our movement.
