Communist Party Takes On Edinburgh Council | Edinburgh News

Published 3 weeks, 5 days ago
Description

The Communist Party of Britain is officially running candidates in two Edinburgh council by-elections, pledging a bold socialist alternative focused on peace, public ownership, tax justice, and workers’ rights. They’re tackling the housing crisis, underfunded services, and soaring living costs with concrete proposals: rent freezes, crackdowns on short-term lets, expanded council housing, and reversing cuts to libraries and youth programs. They also demand an end to funding foreign wars — especially what they call genocide in Palestine — arguing military spending should fund communities instead. Their candidates spotlight the gap between Edinburgh’s wealth and working-class hardship, aiming to give a powerful voice to those left behind.
