Rooting out this cancer from the GLA is not just a Blimpish kneejerk reaction from old Radders, or vilification by Channel 4, or Gilligan's revenge in the Standard. They really are a pernicious lot.

In particular the ideological justification...

It looks as though Boris has kicked Ken's arse (or “ass”, if you're one of our US friends). Some people on the left (including even our own Voltaire’s Priest) don't think Boris is such bad news. I beg to differ. Of course, I don't go along with Livingstone’s and his ‘Socialist Action’ bag-carriers’ ridiculous and counter-productive allegations that he is some [...]

In Russia they have a word, sovok, which described the craven, chickenshit mindset that over the course of decades became hard-wired into the increasingly silly brains of Soviet subjects. It's a hard...

When it comes to argument against keeping marginal extremist political parties out of the mainstream, Unite Against Fascism is on particularly tricky ground. Although I strongly support the cause of opposing racist and fascist political parties, Unite Against Fascism is handicapped by virtue of being the product of a coalition between two vicious fringe parties the Socialist Workers' Party-run...

... mischievously gotten up by political opponents. Yet such desperate avoidance of candour leaves socialists open to accusations of double standards and logical inconsistency. Are we for the highest standards of probity in politics, or are we not? When those ostensibly on the left are under fire from the right, even to suggest that they may have a case to answer is not a route to ready popularity;...

In Australia there were no less than four groups deriving from Tony Cliff’s politics. The official franchise holders, known as the International Socialist Organization; the almost totally propagandist group Socialist Alternative (who are rumoured to have a [...]

Ken Livingstone composed largely of politicians who had been, and perhaps still were, members of Socialist Action, a Trotskyist sect that regards London as a state that, under their guidance, is undergoing a bourgeois revolution. It showed a London Development Agency that has shovelled funds into companies that no longer exist. It showed a mayor who drank whisky at meetings, morning...
