End the cycle of splits

If the left is to build a serious political organisation it will have to facilitate internal dissent, writes Mike Macnair. And that will require both majorities and minorities to act responsibly
Fisc splits over ‘British road’
20 Jun 1996
The Fourth International Supporters Caucus is a highly secret faction, well ensconced in the topmost positions in the SLP. Not content with fronting the anti-communist witch hunt, Fisc decided to provide the apologetic theory necessary to justify Scargill and his draft constitution. For those within Fisc who retain a commitment to revolutionary politics this was a reformist step too far

OP and rapprochement
13 Jun 1996
Since publishing the correspondence around the decision of Open Polemic comrades to withdraw from membership of the CPGB (see Weekly Worker May 19), we have heard little from them. All those involved in the rapprochement process, not least our own members, have been disturbed by this development, since no one has had the opportunity to discuss their actions with them. Whilst welcoming the proposals for discussions with the PCC, we would urge the comrades to open the discussion to all those who are for communist unity. We invite them again to make use of the paper and CPGB seminars.
