Charles "Charlie" Nicholas Kimber (born July 1957)^[1] is the National Secretary of the Socialist Workers Party of the United Kingdom from January 2011.^[2]

Kimber has been politically active since the 1970s and went on his first protest march in 1975.^[3] He is the editor of Socialist Worker newspaper and has also written for International Socialism, the SWP's journal of socialist theory.^[4] He is a director of Sherborne Publications Limited,^[1] the company that publishes the Socialist Worker, having taken that position following the resignation of Martin Smith as a director on 24 May 2013.^{[citation needed]}

Kimber has published a number of political works, mostly published by the Socialist Workers Party. In May 2008, during the government of Gordon Brown and the 2007–2008 financial crisis, he produced Pay Cuts, Recession and Resistance, which dealt, among other things, with a cost of living crisis for working people and asked "Do wage rises cause inflation?" Kimber argued that the idea of a wage-price spiral was false as workers' pay rises were a secondary and lagging effect of inflation, not its cause. The cause of inflation, he asserted, was employers trying to maintain their profits in times of falling sales. Other topics covered in the publication include the gap between rich and poor and the need for socialist organisation in order to achieve an economy planned in everyone's interests.^[5]
