Just a reminder, this Wednesday Comrades Bar will host the Green Left Weekly Politics in the Pub "SOCIALISTS WORKING TOGETHER THE EXPERIENCE OF THE SCOTTISH SOCIALIST PARTY" FEATURING PAM CURRIE, Scottish Socialist Party This forum comes in the wake of a series of electoral alliances by Socialist groups in Europe. These groups were from a range of backgrounds and traditions (from Maoist to Trotskyist). >From France, Portugal to recent initiatives by the London Socialist Alliance, such initiatives have provided a new dynamic to the organised far left in these countries. The Scottish Socialist Party (SSP) could be credited with leading this trend.Born in October 1998 from a two and a half year project which went under the umbrella of the Scottish Socialist Alliance, it has proved to be an inspiring example for the left internationally. Since its formation the SSP has not restricted itself to parliamentary politics, though in this it hasexperienced its share of success, but has also led a range of struggles including fighting the Criminal Justice Act and providing solidarity for the Liverpool dockers.
