Midlands
The Midlands Morning Star Campaign Committee is an alliance of local Readers and Supporters Groups across the region, linking up all readers and supporters of the Star who would like to play a part in extending its circulation and influence.
Founded on January 1, 1930, it is still the only English-language socialist daily newspaper published in the world.
In addition to that claim to fame, it is also the only newspaper in Britain owned by its readers.
Originally published as the Daily Worker, the paper was launched as the organ of the Communist Party of Great Britain.
Over the next 15 years it fought its way into the consciousness of trade unionists and progressives throughout the land, always fighting for the cause of working people and battling against an Establishment which moved heaven and earth to extinguish it.
