Political Statement
I consider myself to be an anarcho-communist, heavily influenced by Kropotkin and Berkman et al. Somewhat predictably, I suppose, I've arrived at my politics through the study and critique of Marxism-Leninism alongside a deep interest in the history of the Labour and trade union movement here in the UK - thus leading to a desire to explore syndicalism which has also been fostered by reading the likes of Chomsky and Rocker.

Currently I am attempting to deepen my understanding of how Maoist concepts can possibly be applied to the fight for emancipation under present socioeconomic conditions, as well as trying desperately to resolve the constant philosophical battle for headspace between Marxist and libertarian strains of communism in an almost certainly naïve hope of reconciliation.

In regard to practical political action, I strive to involve myself with as much activism as time will allow - unfortunately this has been interrupted in the past by a bit of a struggle with social anxiety, but thankfully now I'm able to lend at least some support to Palestinian Solidarity, UAF and a local fledgling anarchist group, as well as LGBT Pride which has made me truly comfortable as a pansexual.
