TheAssociation of Communist Workers was ananti-revisionistpolitical party in theUnited Kingdom.

It originated in 1969 as a split from theRevolutionary Marxist-Leninist League aroundHarpal Brar, together with his close comrades Kathy Sharp, Ella Rule, Iris Cremer and Godfrey Cremer. Prominent Marxists Ranjeet Brar and Joti Brar were also members of this organisation and also Carlos Martinez. Initially regarded asMaoist, it spent time working in thewomen's movement through its "Union of Women for Liberation". Through Brar, the group was closely linked with theIndian Workers Association, theAssociation of Indian Communists and theStalin Society.

The group increasingly moved from Maoism to anti-revisionism, and in 1997 they officially dissolved the ACW and joined theSocialist Labour Party (SLP). When many of them left the SLP in 2004, they founded theCommunist Party of Great Britain (Marxist–Leninist). The CPGB-ML was the founder of the broad electoral front of the Workers Party, together with George Galloway in 2019. The organisations formally separated, however in 2021.
