SWSS has been at the heart of the anticapitalist and student movements, organising occupations and demonstrations. With a network of groups in campuses and colleges around Britain we argue for student-worker unity, make the case for revolution and socialism from below.
We organise forums, teach-ins, debates and reading groups to discuss Marxist theory, history and current political questions. Last year we organised video linkups with Occupy Wall Street activists, a book tour with Terry Eagleton and Alex Callinicos on ‘Why Marx was right’ as well as a ‘Students for Revolution’ festival.
We are involved in the Education Activist Network, Unite Against Fascism, Defend the Right to Protest, solidarity with Palestine and other local campaigns fighting sexism, racism, fascism, homophobia, imperialism, and for a world without exploitation and oppression. Capitalism means crisis, war and poverty.
We fight for a socialist world of real democracy and where people come before profit. We need you, and you need us. Join the revolutionaries.

The Student Communities Committee is responsible for embedding student representation into the delivery of our service to students at London Met. It seeks to engage students in decision-making processes in Student Communities that affect Student Groups. The Committee consists of four elected representatives, 3 Student Group Leaders from any Student Group, and one from a Verve Media Student Group. The committee also consists of the VP of Activities and Opportunities, who is the chair of this committee with decision-making rights within the committee. The Committee has three key areas of responsibility: 1. Approving funding applications from Student Groups 2. Ensuring the Student Communities are student-led and supported 3. Undertaking ad-hoc business when required for key events Our aim is to ensure Student Communities are shaped by students, and students have the opportunity to use their experience of our service to shape it. If you think you are the right person for this role, please write a manifesto outlining why you should be elected and go up for polling from the 6th of October.
