Out of curiosity what is it specificaly about trotskists that make them the biggest entryists into the labour party and why is Trot kinda generic insult against leftists in the UK ?
As to the first I believe that was a Trotskyist tactic they adored in the 80’s throughout the world. It’s success with UK Labour (relative success being marginal recognition for a sect that rarely gets any real attention) makes entryism sort of a Trots-textbook play. I heard a local trots bragging about how the UK branch took over Liverpool like it was the workers global revolution…
Why is that an insult? As their entryism came in a low moment for Labour in the 80’s and Tory media back then loved to highlight their shenanigans as the loony left.
This is my two pence
