The Socialist Campaign Group

The Socialist Campaign Group is a faction within the UK Labour Party, composed of Members of Parliament (MPs) who advocate for socialist principles. They support policies that promote public ownership, economic equality, and social justice, often emphasizing reforms to reduce inequality and improve public services. The group tends to hold more left-wing views compared to the broader party, aiming to influence Labour's direction towards more progressive and socialist policies. Established in the 1980s, their role is to represent and promote these ideas within parliamentary debates and policymaking.
