That was more when the members started bailing. Electoral base long gone by then: even Willie Gallacher lost by 33pts (and came third) in 1950.

Seems about right. My papa was a CPGB member in the 1930's. It was the war that severed his affiliation apparently due to his interactions with the Garibaldi Brigades in the Italian campaign; never had the stomach for 'military' socialism. Liked Tito though.
