    As the title of this topic would suggest, i was wondering if there are ever going to be any rallys or demstrations in the UK that i could attend, or if any of you could point me to a british leftist website, because i have yet to find one.

    SiliconRain where are you from? Cant speak for outside Scotland but the SSP up here have been very active particularly for about the last year. About 2 weeks ago there was an anti war rally in George Square,Glasgow and last week they were involved in blockading the Faslane Naval Base. In fact one ofour MSPs,Tommy Sheridan was arrested for this (again).
    Since the SWP joined with the SSP I think there has been quite a lot of activity up here. Mostly around Glasgow, good to see the streets on Clydeside are still red.

    I have taken this example of peoples hopes and desires to put it in the viewpoint of "here and now".

    The protest against Afghanistan obviously did not work. The groups that currently exist in the UK are futile. They need good vision and directive.

    SWP Ireland's website has moved to http://www.swp.ie
    Economic Left/Right: -8.88
    Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -8.05

    And unnatural, irrational, sinful, wicked, unjust, devilish and tyrannical it is, for any man whatsoever - spiritual or temporal, clergyman or layman - to appropriate and assume unto himself a power, authority and jurisdiction to rule, govern, or reign over any sort of men in the world without their free consent...

    start your own rallys
    It goes one for the student who refuses to submit and two for the teacher who is under-paid as shit, and three for the strikes who give young bloods life and four for the years you spent stifled inside.
