The party, known principally for its pro-trans stance, has seemingly disintegrated following a split. Said split was apparently precipitated by a conflict between senior leadership, with allegations of “anti-black racism” being cast at an apparently anonymous figure inside the organisation. The party’s comms and internet presence have been systematically removed from the internet, amid claims that the party’s communications are being scrubbed by rogue moderators.

    Honestly always had a bad vibe from them.

    1. Splinter of a splinter of a splinter of a splinter of a spli

    2. Spent all their energy hurling accusations online against other UK Marxist parties, often suggesting entire Marxist community in the UK is a bunch of transphobes and sexists who keep sweeping sexual abuse against women under the rug.

    3. While shitting on other Marxists they kept recommending anarchist groups to their readers - conveniently forgetting to mention anarchist spaces have all the same issues (e.g. they are not at all safer for women than Marxist spaces)

    4. They were essentially a Marxist reading circle with an intersectional slant which appeals to baby communists, but they called themselves a “revolutionary party” and charged membership fees.

      Never had any contact with them from the inside, though I do know a former member. I asked him what his plans for the future were, and it seems he’s devoted to creating another new party all over again…
