Far Lefties Explained
Problem is, you put 100 Left-wing activists in a room and you'll get
120 contradictory versions of what is genuinely socialist / left-wing. And then
they'll meet again next week and you'll get another dozen or so versions as a
handful of people change position.
The far left is best left to arguing among itself as to how many Stalins can
dance on the head of a Trotsky, and whether the presence or absence of an ice
pick sticking out affects the number.
It's Not Just The Marxists - It All Of Them
I agree with that. As much as I am in a state of ecstasy over the Labour parties
current state, there is soon to be a generation of young people who can't
compete with foreign labour, can't afford university and can't afford a mortgage
or to raise a family.
Hard Left ex Wiki
Paul Anderson and Nyta Mann wrote: Labour [in the early 1980s] was ... in the depths of the fratricidal
blood-letting that had engulfed it after the defeat of
Jim Callaghan's government. The activist left in the constituency
parties and the trade unions, with support from some left MPs, most notably
Tony Benn, was in revolt against what it saw as the failure of the 1974–9
government to put Labour's principles into practice. On policy, it was
insistent that Labour adopt unambiguously radical positions, particularly
withdrawal from the
European Economic Community and
unilateral nuclear disarmament ... But the activists' biggest priority
was to make the
Parliamentary Labour Party accountable to the party as a whole ... The
left coalition [the Campaign for Labour Party Democracy] was a bizarre mix
of radical democrats,
Leninists
old and new, traditional Labour leftists, feminists, libertarians and
decentralists. It was notoriously unstable, not least because it could not
agree on the detail of its proposed reforms to the party constitution, and
was already beginning to divide into a hard left that wanted to push the
revolt to its limit and a soft left that was prepared to compromise.[1] In more recent times,
John McDonnell and other MPs in the Socialist Campaign Group and the
Labour Representation Committee are seen as constituting a hard left in
contrast to a
soft left
represented by politicians like
Jon
Cruddas.[2]
Ultra-leftism ex Wiki Used pejoratively, ultra-left generally criticizes positions,
especially those the mainstream historical Marxist parties, that are adopted
without taking notice of the current situation or of the consequences which
would result from following a proposed course................ The mainstream Marxist critique of such a position began with
Vladimir Lenin's
Left-Wing Communism: An Infantile Disorder, which attacked those
(such as
Anton Pannekoek or
Sylvia Pankhurst) in the nascent
Communist International, who refused to work with
parliamentary or
reformist
socialists.
Trotskyists and others see the Communist International's
Third Period — when it described
social democratic parties as "social fascist" and therefore essentially
no better than
Adolf Hitler's
Nazis
— as a strategy of ultra-leftism. The term has been popularised in the
United States by the
Socialist Workers' Party, who have used the term to both describe
opponents in the anti-war movement[1]
and opponent Trotskyists,[2]
including
Gerry Healy. Ultra-leftism is often associated with leftist
sectarianism, in which a socialist current might attempt to put its own
short-term interests before the long term interests of the working class and
its allies.
Alliance for Workers' Liberty
ex Wiki
Left Unity (UK) ex Wiki More than 10,000 people supported Loach's initial appeal.[10]
In 2014, the party had 2,000 members
and 70 branches across Britain.
Socialist Party (England and Wales) ex Wiki The Socialist Party has members in executive positions in a number of
trade unions.[5][6][7]
It has sister parties in
Scotland and
Ireland and is a member of the
Committee for a Workers' International and the
European Anti-Capitalist Left. It is considered by many
centre-left publications as being on the
hard
left of British politics.[8]
Socialist Workers Party (UK)
ex Wiki Over the decades, the SWP has founded several 'front'
organisations which have sought to exert direct influence over issues of
interest to the wider left, such as the
Anti-Nazi League in the late 1970s[2]
(now
Unite Against Fascism) and from 2001, the
Stop the War Coalition. It also formed an alliance with
George Galloway and
Respect; this alignment's eventual dissolution in 2007 caused an
internal crisis in the SWP. A more serious internal crisis emerged at the
beginning of 2013 over allegations of rape and sexual assault made against a
leading (now former) member of the party.[3][4]
The SWP's handling of these accusations against the individual, known as
Comrade Delta, led to a significant decline in the party's membership.[5] On the international level, the SWP is part of the
International Socialist Tendency.
Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition ex Wiki Prominent trade union support comes from the
RMT union. TUSC's co-founder was former RMT general secretary
Bob Crow.
Leading members of the
PCS,
NUT,
FBU and
POA unions are on the steering committee. Prominent participating
socialist groups include the
Socialist Party,
Socialist Workers Party, and
Solidarity. In the
2015 General Election, TUSC stood 135 parliamentary candidates across
England, Wales and Scotland,[9]
and 619 in the
local elections.[10]
As of 2016, TUSC has three affiliated city councillors in Southampton, and a
parish councillor in Warrington.[11]
Hard Left Take Over Bid For Labour Party
[ 26 July 2015 ] More than 140,000 new activists are projected to have joined by the
deadline for registration to vote, a rise of more than two thirds since the
election, with many signing up to back the
hard left candidate
Jeremy Corbyn. The
Communist Party of Great Britain has called on supporters to join and
back Corbyn as part of its revolutionary “strategy” while
Green Party

Vote Rigging Scandal Being Set Up In Oldham By-Election
[

Corbyn to be
nominated to contest the Oldham West and Oyton by-election, called
after the death of Michael Meacher.......... The Falkirk vote-rigging scandal focused on allegations that

the 2015 general election after the incumbent, Eric Joyce, stepped down
in the wake of a brawl in a Commons bar........ It has also emerged that
Mr Corbyn is facing a revolt from his own MPs over his decision to
appoint
Seumas Milne, a left-wing Guardian journalist, as his director of
communications.
Cox
Murder Is A Very Useful Propaganda Tool For Far Left [
17 June 2016 ] However, when nationalists have been
murdered by leftists, the “democrats” have ignored such events and
carried on as normal.............. Cox—a fanatic supporter of the nonwhite
invasion of Europe who previously called for more “refugees” to be
admitted to Britain—was stabbed and shot by 52-year-old Thomas Mair in a
street in Yorkshire yesterday.......... This international outpouring of grief
over the murder is in marked contrast to the complete lack of reaction
to the
November 2013 assassination of two members of Greece’s Golden Dawn
party by communists....... No one in the international political
community bothered to even respond to the 2013 murders—because the
victims were nationalists. This is the real lesson of the Cox
murder: the shameless hypocrisy which only objects to political
assassinations when the victims are far leftists.

Hard Left Taking Over Labour Party
[ 24 July 2017 ] The activists are pushing to replace Tom Watson, a centrist, with
Emily
Thornberry, the shadow foreign secretary, who is close to the
party leader. Mr Watson is viewed by the Labour leader’s allies as an
alternative power base and therefore a threat to Mr Corbyn’s control
of the party. Grassroots supporters have accused the deputy leader
of trying to place anti-Corbyn members on the party’s governing
body. He has also sparked anger among the left by branding
Momentum,
the leader’s network of supporters, a “rabble” and accusing “Trotsky entryists” of influencing its younger members.
Far Left Media Admits Zimbabwe Getting Worse
[ 26 September 2018 ]
According to that paper, Zimbabwe is facing a “deepening economic crisis,”
“crumbling infrastructure,” sky-high inflation, an ever-shrinking
agricultural output, millions who rely in food aid, a cholera
outbreak—caused by poor hygiene and broken infrastructure—and a state
crackdown on opposition activity, including police shootings and the banning
of meetings.............
At the same time, a cholera outbreak has infected thousands and killed
at least 30, with the disease spreading to five of the country’s 10
provinces. Cholera—caused by fecal matter being deposited in domestic water
supplies—is increasingly common in Zimbabwe, where the white
colonial-created infrastructure is literally crumbling away.
Hard Left Power Over
Ofcom Is Under Threat [ 3 March 2021 ] Already there has been a flurry of op-ed pieces denouncing the idea and
the battle is heating up. Among those spearheading the attack is an outfit
called Byline Times, which recently published a piece headlined “Ten
Reasons why Paul Dacre is unfit to be the new Ofcom chair” written by
Brian Cathcart, professor of journalism at Kingston University. It is
illuminating as it sets out how the liberal establishment view Ofcom’s role
and the type of journalism that we should be allowed to consume. Ofcom has been a wholly owned subsidiary of the liberal left for
decades; the arrival of an outsider like Dacre is thus highly unwelcome The first reason Cathcart gives justifying why Dacre should be
disqualified from the job is his “visceral objection to the statutory
regulation of journalism”.

Labour Briefing, as well as
Trotskyist
groups such as
Militant tendency and
Socialist Organizer. The hard left was more strongly influenced by
Marxism,

Hard Left Attacks Supreme Court Judges [ 7 July

QUOTE
Political pressure is mounting on Joe Biden to take more action to protect
abortion rights across the US as firebrand New York congresswoman
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called for supreme court justices to be
impeached for misleading statements about their views on
Roe v Wade.
Ocasio-Cortez’s remarks took aim at justices Brett Kavanaugh and Neil Gorsuch. Both were appointed by former president Donald Trump and had [ allegedly ] signaled that they would not reverse the supreme court’s landmark 1973 decision in Roe v Wade during confirmation hearings as well as in meetings with senators.
On Friday, Kavanaugh and Gorsuch formed part of the conservative majority which in effect ended legal access to abortion in most states, and Ocasio-Cortez said “there must be consequences” for that.
“They lied,” the leftwing, second-term representative said on NBC’s Meet the Press. “I believe lying under oath is an impeachable offense … and I believe that this is something that should be very seriously considered.”
Ocasio-Cortez added that standing idly by “sends a blaring signal to all future nominees that they can now lie to duly elected members of the United States Senate in order to secure … confirmations and seats on the supreme court”...............
The end of the right to abortion in the United States will have devastating consequences around the world. A half century ago, the Supreme Court's landmark Roe v Wade decision inspired a new era of reproductive freedom in dozens of countries. The court's reversal will empower anti-abortion voices everywhere, threatening reproductive freedom and the right to control one’s destiny.
The Guardian views reproductive choice
as a fundamental human right and will pursue this story even after
it recedes from headlines, with a focus on the people most impacted
by restrictions. But we need your help to do this work.

making it. They were acting

How the Left Became Cheerleaders for US Imperialism [ 25 November 2022 ]
QUOTE
One of the biggest problems for the left, as it
confronts what seems like humanity’s ever-more precarious relationship with
the planet – from the climate emergency to a potential nuclear exchange – is
that siren voices keeping luring it towards the rocks of political confusion
and self-harm.
And one of the loudest sirens on the British left is the environmental activist George Monbiot.
Monbiot
has carved out for himself a figurehead role on the mainstream British left
because he is the only big-picture thinker allowed a regular platform in the
establishment media: in his case, the liberal
Guardian newspaper. It is a spot he covets and one that seems to
have come with a big price tag: he is allowed to criticize the corporate
elite’s capture of British domestic politics – he occasionally concedes that
our political life has been stripped of all democratic content – but only,
it seems, because he has become ever less willing to extend that same
critique to British foreign policy.
