TheCommunist Party of South Wales and the West of England was apolitical party inBritain, formed in September 1920. The group was formed by a minority within theSouth Wales Socialist Society, that did not support merging into theCommunist Party of Great Britain.

The group held a conference inCardiff in November 1920, during which it declared that communist unity could be achieved only on the basis of "localautonomy in a given local area".[1]
