Their latest conference is lacking the usual celebrities, even Labour MP's (bar the most unpopular one) will not go?
Is it the end?

UAF have announced another annual meeting, but given the recent trouble with Searchlies (who pulled away from them) I cannot help but wonder whether UAF has served it's purpose?
Their campaigning has been celebrity driven and not political, their membership is driven by Islamaphobes and the leadership, straight out of a time warp.
Searchlight at the recent TUC conference had major union leaders etc, while UAF had a half empty meeting.
Searchlight are not my favourite band, but they do seem to be outstripping UAF, not in celebrity, but in terms of real political work.
This UAF conference is driven totally by Londoners, when will the SWP give up on this practice and allow a true group to challenge Searchlight and Labour?
