Swindon Anarchists launched

Town End Boy | 26.09.2011 16:57 | Public sector cuts | Social Struggles | Workers' Movements | Oxford

A new group for anarchists in Swindon and Wilts has been launched - come and join the fun!

After a long wait, Swindon now has an anarchist group.

The group has already been active in the anti cuts struggle - helping build the march 26th demo and a sucessful local demo to coincide with the June 30th strike, organising local anti cuts demos, including a decent sized anarchist contingent and organising a UKuncut action.

Swindon Anarchists will continue to be involved in the fight against cuts, as well as anti-fascist, environmental and loads of other issues.

although it is good that there is a new Anarchist group, there is already a Swindon branch of the SWP.What is the point of splitting the movement?

I can only speak for myself. Where I live (not in Swindon), I am involved in anarchist groups because my ideology is anarchist. I am not involved in socialist groups because my ideology is not socialist. This doesn't mean people from the two ideologies cannot work together - we frequently do.

Having different groups does not split the movement - it strengthens it by recognising and accepting the diversity of the different groups.

Equating a single group, in this case the SWP, with a movement is, IMO, more likely to cause fractures and to split a movement.
