Daily Worker and Morning Star Digital Archive

The Daily Worker was a daily broadsheet newspaper, founded in 1930 by the Communist Party of Great Britain. The publication was suspended by the British Government for 18 months between 1941-1942 because of the stance the paper took opposing World War II. In 1966 the paper relaunched as the Morning Star, a Monday – Saturday tabloid format newspaper.
