Cde Wonder, differing viiews of individual comrades within an organisation does not make either of them to belong to a cabal. What I am suggesting here is that a decent view on a particular position within an organisation becomes factional immediately you have a massive number of comrades associating themselves with an intention to persue that agenda. That means fro you to have a different view on a particular matter against mine does not suggest that you belong to a cabal. The latter then highlights the importance of individual independent thinking wihtin an organisation.
Cde Domza, while agreeing with you that in the SACP we cannot allow any secretive assosciation of members, we also cannot allow Comrades to mobilise members to defy any organisational position or a position that enjoys majority support to mobilise themselves and persue such an agenda because as in when they do that to me they become a cabal that seeks to undermine the collective. In short I am arguing that differing views should laid down for discussions until they settled within the organisation. The majority supported view should rise supreme and the ones who were support the other view must succumb and support the majority view then we will not have cabals. Maatla!
