Liberty & Solidarity

is a political organisation aiming to build workplace and community democracy through direct action and struggling with all those fighting for change.

We stand for the power of workers and local people against the bosses and politicians in order to bring about radical social change, to build a society based on freedom, democracy and cooperation.

Does L&S reject mainstream TUC unions in favour of radical ones?

No. L&S believes that all kinds of trade unions are appropriate tools for fighting the class struggle in different situations. We want to see a growth of Syndicalist unions that are for gaining workers control, not just better wages. This does not mean that we spend our time slagging off TUC unions for being TUC unions – where there is a mainstream union in our workplace, L&S members are active in it. We believe in being in both mainstream unions and radical unions or networks.
