Wikipedia distinguishes between "Communist Parties" and "Trotskyist Parties".

It lists the SWP (USA) as a Communist Party and the SWP (UK) as a Trotskyist Party:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Communism

The SWP (USA) and SWP (UK) are not currently linked in any way.

I stopped trying to make sense of all the different Far Left Parties and Factions over 40 years ago. A lot of them were little more than three men and a dog so it wasn't worth the effort.

However, there does seem to be a split between (some of) the Parties that are Communist and the Trotskyites (eg. SWP UK) in terms of recognition of material reality and support for women's rights. The SWP (UK) also has a disgusting history of sexual exploitation of women.

SWP (UK) - Internal crisis in 2013–2014 over allegations of rape

Yes I remember Comrade Delta and in fact the memory of his behaviour is more than enough to mention when the SWP try (as 3 men and a dog) to hold BLM pickets, anti police pickets, removing statues pickets, and so on.

Their politics seem to be the inspiration for sisters uncut. Another parasitic left group that has no actual strategy but piggy backs on other groups campaigns.

I think SWP (UK) is fully TWAW. Only the Morning Star (of the left papers) has written in support of women's sex based writes.

Dont you remember the terrible treatment of Helen Steel, who of anybody you would think the so called left would listen to.

But really good news about the US Militant paper. I wonder what branch of socialism they are.

The UK Militant paper was Derek Hatten etc., and I see they are now the Socialist Party and were critical of WPUK's campaign.

I must remember to pop over to AGCL fb page and see how they react. Although I think they are minding their Ps & Qs since the threads on FWR. Only one attempt to smear PP by tangental association, ie being asked a question by a right winger!!

They are now going back to their US target of Karen Dansky.

What a said little unproductive life they lead.

Do you think that that group had the self awareness to self moderate after their actions have become publicised on here?

That is a positive result I guess.

Maybe that will start making those particular women aware of the impact of their focus on women they don’t agree with on the groups they are supposedly ‘leaders’ for.

Sadly, I doubt it will last.
