Why I Fear What Labour Will Do to the Education System Sun Jul 28, 2024 11:00 | Stephen Curran
We are facing a radical agenda set by the progressive wing of the educational establishment, says Dr Stephen Curran. We should build on the past 14 years' foundation, not tear it down.

The Extreme Weather We?re Experiencing Is Not Man Made, According to the IPCC Sun Jul 28, 2024 07:00 | Mark Ellse
Day-to-day weather, with all its extremes, is "just weather", according to the IPCC. With their authority onside, we can shrug off the BBC's melodramatic climate reports and misinformation, says Mark Ellse.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9Why the ISG should think again about being the SWP's mudguard in RESPECT.
UK 4th International wake up to SWP. Oh pleez, how slow are these people.
How can you associate yourself with RESPECT? They wont even stand up for basic Liberal rights such as seperation of Church and State. Genuine Socialists should leave RESPECT to the Mullahs and the SWP.
"This is currenlty a minority position within RESPECT", we are told.
"Currently"? Is there any mechanism within RESPECT for a minority position to become a majority position? In democratic organisations, this can be achieved by debate and persuasion. But when the organisation is structured in such a way that it can only adopt policies approved by the controlling organisation, then those outside said controlling organisation are condemned to being a permanent and powerless minority.
Those few non-SWP members of RESPECT are in just such a quandary. Or can they name any cases when the SWP have outvoted themselves in RESPECT?
Last Saturday, November 19, the Guardian published an excellent feature on the proposed Blair Blasphemy law :
http://books.guardian.co.uk/departments/politicsphilosophyandsociety/story/0,,1645833,00.html
The RESPECT Conference debated the issue on the same day at the camden Centre in London - the position proposed by Alan Thornett and others was defeated.
Supporters of the Blasphemy Bill included the MP George Galloway and the Socialist Workers' Party (leading members include John Rees and Lindsey German).
This must be one of the most bizarre policy decisions ever taken by an organization such as the SWP - its members and supporters should think again - very quickly!

Its time to go. Your comrades in Respect are getting nowhere. I am no fan of the SP/CWI but they would better off joining their project for building a new Workers Party than staying in Respect under the thumb of the SWP and Islamic Fundamentalists.

A penny dropping. Eureka.
They are still committed to building RESPECT. How can on of the few decent Trot groups stay in coalition with the SWP and ISLAMIC Fundamentalists. Its time to go if you are to retain any self-respect.
