The British people have decided on the future of their country, in a sovereign way. This fact must been hailed and respected, all the more so, since this referendum was held in the context of enormous and unacceptable pressure and blackmail, namely by the big transnational economic groups and big finance capital, as well as by organizations such as the IMF, OECD and even the European Union itself. This result is therefore also a victory against fear, supposed inevitabilities, submission and catastrophism.

The PCP greets in particular the British Communists and other left-wing forces who – rejecting false dichotomies and opposing reactionary and xenophobic stances – assumed and asserted in the referendum their voice in defense of the values of democracy, labour and social rights, progress, tolerance, solidarity and cooperation between the peoples.
