If the BBC's Standards Committee, which is reviewing the corporation's coverage of climate change, wants a good example of bias, it should take a look at its report of recent floods in Pakistan, says Paul Homewood.

So what? Even the SWP have won over Capitalists to stand for them. Take Richard Boyd Barrett he is the scion of one of the richest families in Ireland. His father a multi-millionaire is always happy to make more millions but does not pay taxes. Boyd Barrett Senior was one of those named in the Ansbacher Report. Yet in spite of this the SWP have been happy to make RBB their leader and he has stood on their behalf in elections.
Please publish in ful the anti-Semitic motion you claim the CPR supported. Please give details from a credible site which says the CPR voted for it.
"BK must be the SWP member in Belfast who often appears as a US Socialist at their meetings. Hes been here so long that its a bit like calling James Connolly a Scottish Socialist. Is this the BK you meant?"
of course he must be thanks for the research. Oh yeah your talking out your arse
im on to your nonsense trotwatch. Not wacthing hard enough obviously
Kagarlitsky has been a radical socialist since the days he opposed the stalinist regime from a left perspective and is now Russia's leading anti-capitalist intellectual. Djerg is displaying total ignorance by suggesting a radical anti-capitalist favours the capitalist economics of the Chicago School.
As for the Russian Communist Party, their deputies recently suppported an anti-semitic motion in the Duma and frequently use rhetoric about 'zionists' to refer to the Jewish commmunity in Russia. The party is closely aligned to the Russian Orthodox Church, characterises the October Revolution as a 'historic mistake' (they may be right but for the wrong reasons), and fully suppports the genocidal war being waged by the authoritarian-capitalist Putin regime in Chechnya. This so-called 'Commmunist Party' is allied with the chauvinist-fascist forces in Russia. In the last general election the Russian CP encouraged capitalist to stand as candidates for the party, hoping for an influx of funding.
Just because an organisation is called 'commmunist' is not really relevent, its what they actually say and do is whats really significant. The Russian CP is about no more communist than Hitlers National Socialists were socialists.
The CPR is not anti-Semitic nor is it Social-Fascist. It is one the few forces which are fighting the privatisation agenda. Its so familiar that supposed Left will align themselves with the fans of the Chicago School like Kagerlitsky.
Kagarlitsky is one of the few Russian socialists who was a dissident during the Soviet period. He is certainly not a stalinist or USSR nostalgist. He is one of the most progressive voices in Russia today, opposing both nationalist and stalinist authoritarianism as well as the failed robber capitalist economy. He has also written incisive critiques of western social democracy and Russia's occupation of Chechnya.
Kagirlitsky and other anti-stalinist leftists are currently working on bringing together various radical groups and individuals to form a new left party. These genuine leftists have nothing to do with the official Commmunist Party (heirs to the CPSU) which is really a social fascist party combining unltra-nationalism, anti-semitism and vague anti-capitalist rhetoric.
Why are the Trots defending the Soviet Unionm?
