New introduction by
John Callow
Our Flag Stays Red is a unique account of communist and anti-fascist activity in London’s East End in the 1930s and 1940s. Its author was Communist MP for Stepney from 1945 to 1950, and played a leading role in the events described in the book – which are an important part of twentieth-century working-class history.
