The CPGB-PCC's declared intention is to emulate "Iskra" in providing Marxist analysis of politics and organisation to an initial vanguard of the working class. The "Weekly Worker" is integral to the CPGB-PCC's identity, given that the party, probably dialectically, does not consider itself to be a Marxist party. It aims instead to have the paper provide a focus for Communist organisation and theory that will be absorbed by a Marxist party that will arrive in a time of greater working-class activism.
