If you agree with our positions, you should join the SWP. Otherwise don't as it'll inevitably stunt your political development. We're Trotskyists of the Cliffite (International Socialist) tradition. We distinguished ourselves over the years by adhering to the theory of State Capitalism to describe so-called 'socialist' countries such as Cuba and the Soviet Union, the theory of Permanent Arms Economy, and so on. But that's the past, we're now also known for our staunch support of national liberation struggles in Palestine and Lebanon, for instance. You can read more of our thoughts and positions at www.socialistworker.co.uk and www.swp.org.uk. We're active in Edinburgh, especially at Edinburgh uni, and we have a solid branch structure there. If it appeals, you should check us out
hey, i'm in edinburgh and i've been looking into the SWP as they have the occasional gathering here - and I happened to notice you are a member. Is joining them something you'd recommend? Maybe that's a silly question. What are the main tendencies etc?
