How to Paralyse a Campaign, in Five Easy Steps

Step 3 - If the campaign organisers refuse or object, point out that they are denying democratic debate.
Step 4 - Develop this into a general critique of the leadership, their intolerance of dissent and contempt for democracy.
Step 5 - Build an internal opposition within the campaign whose primary activity is attacking the leadership.
(Warning: Following Step 5 it's tempting to lead an actual organisational split from the campaign. But only do this if at least a third of the members will come with you! Otherwise you'll do more damage staying inside.)
