What we stand for - programme and aims of the CWG

Documents of the Communication Workers Group - the original programme of the group followed by the later, more radical document entitled "What we stand for."

Programme
(This was the original programme of the Communication Workers' Group)

1) We are not an electoral front for a political party or parties. We aim to build the strength of the rank and file. We do not aim to capture full time union positions. Full time officials may not join this group.

DAM rank and filists! The Communication Workers Group

Article written by one of Subversion, a former member of the rank and file Communication Workers Group, in 1994 looking at his/her experiences with the group and making suggestions on future efforts of workplace organising - importantly rejecting the CWG's rank and filism.

It is not very clear, however to us what alternative they actually propose.
