Opinions on Labour Representation Committee?

[heiss93]

Do any UK members have an opinion on the Labour Representation Committee? They seem like a pragmatic organization to me and the New Communist Party of Britain and various Trotskyist groups participate in it. Few would disagree that electoral politics is an important tool towards Revolution. So if we can agree on parlimentary tactics, whos to say that it is neccarily more effective to run on your own party or threough a larger social democratic party?

They're involved in some good things like the defend council housing campaign.

But they're essentially old-Labour party hacks. I'd he happy to work with them on specific things though of course.
