Our nine point plan for radically improving the effectiveness
of the SSP
- For an anti-nationalist approach to the national question and clarity that
campaigning on the class issues outside Parliament is far more important than
campaigning for a bourgeois Parliament to have more powers.
- For a serious orientation to the working class and trade unions with
patient communist work taking place in workplaces and within the unions.
Regular union fractions that take account of union conferences and structures
that exist at an all Britain level and inclusive workshop based annual
industrial conferences whose focus is getting workers to fight back.
- For an end to the ban on public paper sales of Socialist papers other than
the Voice. The ban represents a Stalinist approach to Party organisation.
- For a non-sectarian approach by the leadership to SSP members, other
potential allies out with the party and single-issue campaigns that are in the
interests of the working-class.
- For more international work around workers fighting back in developing
countries and proper solidarity work with Iraqi trade unions.
- Active support for broad-based democratic, transparent, inclusive
single-issue campaigns that are in the interests of the working class such as
No Sweat, behindthelable and the Clean Clothes campaign.
- For more efficient branch routines and a programme of Internal Marxist
education. There should be a reasonable level of annual public meetings, day
schools, SSP workplace bulletins going into workplaces set down by the
regional organisers and NC
- For the rapid evolution of the Voice into a more useful weapon in the
hands of the activists (The urgent implementation of Party policy on this
issue). For a regular theoretical journal and pamphlets on vital issues such
as the health service.
- Re-design the website to make it a real resource in the hands of activists
and allow for commentary on Voice articles from anyone. (The AWL and CPGB
allow for this at their websites)
