Not Anarchist, But Trotskyist

In Britain during the 1980s, the entrist Militant tendency won three members of parliament and effective control of Liverpool City Council while in the Labour Party. Described as "Britain's fifth most important political party" in 1986 it played a prominent role in the 1989–1991 mass anti-poll tax movement which was widely thought to have led to the downfall of British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.

Almost all of the large far left parties in Britain are led by Trotskyists, including the Socialist Workers Party (Britain), the Socialist Party (England and Wales), Respect – The Unity Coalition and the Scottish Socialist Party.

The 'election' of Ed Miliband by the Labour Party was the final defeat of Blairism in the Labour Party, Kinnock for all his faults took on the Militant Tendency and probably saved the 'People's Party' for a generation. Before that the SDP ( now the dominant party in the Lib Dems) split from the Labour Party that had swung far to the Hard Left.

The years of the 'Brown Terror' with its surveillance State was the logical outpouring of the splits within the Labour Party, that have refined it into a hard left party, whose puppet Leader feels compelled to support his TUC paymasters on a public platform, whilst Trotskyist supporters of the big state 'adopted' the flag of convenience of Anarchism .

Have no doubt Trotsky argued for no compromise with 'Liberals' or Capitalism, battle has been joined. The best thing that could happen now to wake up the British is that the 'black bloc'  mount an attack on the forthcoming Royal Wedding next month.

The Labour Party is now in thrall to the enemies of Freedom and Liberty, and are excited as is Miliband about 'direct action'.
