Holocaust Memorial Day 2026
Today on the occasion of Holocaust Memorial Day, the Young Communist League of Britain remembers the millions who died under the barbarity of Nazi rule and occupation across Europe, aided and abetted by fascist collaborators, and opposed by resistance in which communists played a key, and in many cases leading, role.

General Secretary’s New Year’s Address 2026
As we embark upon a new year, we must reflect on our previous year and our current circumstances in order to continue building the class struggle amongst youth in Britain. We do so not in naive celebration but from a realistic assessment of our material conditions and prospects.
Against the Armed Forces “Gap Year”, Militarism, and Drive to War
The Communist Party and its youth wing the Young Communist League offers youth an alternative to militarism and drive to war, through Britain’s Road to Socialism. Let us build the United Front against war and austerity for peace, jobs and socialism in our lifetime.
