The Congress of South African Trade Unions wishes the South African Communist Party ,a successful and revolutionary 95th anniversary tomorrow. This unique milestone for the vanguard of the working class ,reflects its unquestionable credentials in the struggle for liberation and the pursuit of socialism in this country.
COSATU is deeply proud to have such a reliable ally, in the form of the SACP ,to work together with in the struggle against unemployment, and inequality. The SACP and Cosatu will continue to work together to build working class hegemony in all key sites of struggle and also to overcome the challenges facing the workers, the unemployed and the poor.
We shall continue to develop joint programmes and fight side by side in the trenches to deepen democratisation, revolutionary social transformation and ensure that the working class voice is heard.
The federation is looking forward to developing joint campaigns with the SACP ,to deepen the fight against corruption and corporate capture of the state and our broader movement. This will include a fight against factionalism, social distance from the membership and mass base, patronage and distortion of internal democracy.

We issue a call to all the workers and the working class in general ,to overwhelmingly vote for the ANC on the 3rd August 2016, in defence of the revolution.
