Socialist Equality Party

The Socialist Equality Party was established by the International Communist Party in November 1996. The party was formed to "fight the corporate onslaught on jobs, living standards and social programmes and provide the working class with a political alternative to the three parties of big business. This includes the Labour Party, which is now no different from the Conservative Party and Liberal Democrats."

The goal of the party is "the establishment of a socialist society based on the common ownership of the banks, utilities and major industries".

The Party's Assistant National Secretary, Julie Hyland, stood in the Barnsley East by-election. Ms Hyland got 89 votes, giving her 0.5% share of the vote.
