The Morning Star

The capitalist press barons produce 10 million newspaper copies every day. The Morning Star alone provides an alternative daily viewpoint.

The Morning Star is not the property of the Communist Party. The People's Press Printing Society (PPPS), the co-operative which owns the paper, was established by the Communist Party in 1945 to enable the Daily Worker (as the paper was then known) to broaden its base of ownership and support. Today, thousands of supporters - individuals and labour movement organisations - own shares.

However, a special relationship remains between the Party and the Morning Star, based not only on history, but also on the fact that successive Annual General Meetings of the PPPS have agreed that the editorial policy of the paper is guided by The British Road to Socialism.

Party Rule 15(b) states that members have the duty "to read the Morning Star and to help in every way the circulation of the paper." This is our number one priority, as increased circulation is crucial in the battle of ideas and in organising resistance to attacks on living standards, jobs and democratic rights.
