Great politics for thinking people
E.P. Thompson | 25.04.2008 09:14
This is a description of a new group rethinking politics in a great way, unlike the British left. They are authentically open and serious, and in it for the long haul.

These are a good bunch of people, covering the history of Marxism in a very productive way and developing new politics for our time. Unlike some they are not self obsessed and precious, they are able to debate in a friendly way with others from different political backgrounds. Including anarchists.
Why are the British anarchists and left so precious? Is it because they are so little they have to defend vigourously what little they have?
Why do they organise in cults and produce in house glee magazines?
Why do they not open up their politics to serious debate and participate with others to collectively improve working class politics?
It is so obvious and easy to do - but still they think their precious club is enough. Tragic.
