Socialist Party of Great Britain

 

Brian Gardner

The SPGB refused to supply any details concerning their candidate or a photo. Instead they issued the following statement: 'Brian Gardner is the candidate for the Socialist Party. We are standing to argue the case that Capitalism is past its sell-by date, and can now be replaced by its alternative: a wageless, moneyless, classless world community based on production for human need, not profit. This change can only come about once the majority understand it and want it. It won't come about by following leaders or voting for someone else to do it. The birthplace, background, work history or face of our candidate is therefore a complete irrelevance. That's why we have no photo.'

The main themes of his campaign were:

• World community without any frontiers.

• Everyone to have access to what they require to satisfy their needs.

• People should contribute their skills in a wageless society.
