The Call (BSP)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Call was a publication of the British Socialist Party (BSP) which appeared in London from 24 February 1916 until 29 July 1920.[1] Originally it was the voice of the British Socialist Party's anti-war faction, who succeeded in changing the BSP's earlier pro-war stance. After the Easter conference, 24-25 April 1916, it became the official publication of the BSP.[2] The first editor was Fred Willis of Willesden, but Albert Inkpin subsequently took over the role.
