Internationalism in the SSP

The Scottish Socialist Party is committed to internationalism. We reject the idea that socialism can be created in one country. Bill Bonnar is the international secretary of the SSP. This position is elected at our annual conference. The party also has an international committee.

Anti-Capitalism

The SSP has been involved in the various European Social Forums which have met in the last few years. This has included organising workshops, participating in seminar discussions and demonstrations. We also undertook a major mobilisation for the G8 summit when it was held in Gleneagles and are participating in planning for protests at future summits.
