OK, should of known what you meant, my bad. Well, you mean they are not operating like the LCR did which did dissolved into the NPA....but not the tons of *other* currents that entered the NPA and did NOT dissolve. In that sense you are absolutely correct. Like the PSOL in Brazil where some groups may of 'liquidated' into the larger front, now apparently failing, PSOL and others are in there as hardened factions. The CWI is definitely in the latter category. [It's worth pointing out, interestingly however, that the CWI group in Brazil, RS, is also the smallest of any of the groups that formed the PSOL, but is nevertheless intensely loyal to building it as some sort of left alternative to the PT] It would be good if some of the DSP/RSP people on this list could comment. The Aussie CWI group is doing anything *but* dissolving, they are running in elections poising themselves as an alternative to Labor and the Greens or anyone else. This may be quite successful from their POV, that is getting large votes; poising at *the* socialist alternative for the left and working people; building their own party exclusively and at the expense of other groups on the left. That they may form a front of some sort to do this is not out of the question, of course, but it's like to be seen as a CWI front at best. None of this matter of course TO the electorate, who doesn't care what groups do what or "liquidate" or not. It's not relevant.
