Workers' Fight

Workers' Fight has been the name of several Trotskyist groups in the United Kingdom.
Workers' Fight is a tiny Trotskyist political party in England closely linked to the French Lutte Ouvrière. The party focuses on activity in large factory workplaces, rather than trade union or community-based work. They publish the journal Class Struggle on a bi-monthly basis.
Workers' Fight was also the original publication of the Trotskyist group now known as the Alliance for Workers' Liberty. It appeared for a short period in 1967-1968 before this group joined the International Socialists as a faction. The group was generally known by the same name as its publication, and was occasionally referred to by the name until it merged with Workers Power to form the International-Communist League.
Another tiny Trotskyist group in England named Workers' Fight split from the Workers International League in 1998, publishing two editions of a newspaper of the same name before disintegrating. The existence of the group producing Class Struggle was unknown to them!
Workers' Fight was also the publication of the British Trotskyist Revolutionary Socialist League, in the period it was led by C. L. R. James in the late 1930s. A new collected edition of this paper was recently issued in Sweden.
